Pursuant to Article 39 of the M&A, at the first AGM of the Company held after the date of the adoption of the M&A, the Class I directors shall be elected for a three year term of office and at an AGM in each year, successors to such class of directors whose term expires in that year shall be elected for a three-year term of office.
Mr. Zhiyang Wu was duly elected as a Class I director at the first AGM of the Company held after the date of the adoption of the M&A. Pursuant to Articles 37 and 39 of the M&A, the Board proposes to re-elect Mr. Zhiyang Wu as a director of the Company for a three-year term of office or until his successor is elected and is duly qualified.
Ordinary shares represented by executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the re-election of Mr. Zhiyang Wu as a director of the Company for a three-year term of office. The Board has no reason to believe that Mr. Zhiyang Wu will be unable or unwilling to serve as a director if re-elected. In the event that Mr. Zhiyang Wu should be unavailable for re-election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, such ordinary shares will be voted for the election of such substitute nominee as the Board may propose.

Mr. Zhiyang Wu, aged 38, is the chairman of our board of directors and our chief executive officer. He joined our company in 2003. Mr. Wu’s additional role includes vice chairman of Qiao Xing Group. He was the chairman and CEO of Xing, our parent company currently listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, from 1992 to 2010 and the general manager of QXCI from 1995 to 1999. Mr. Wu received a diploma in enterprise management from Huizhou University in China.
The affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes of the Shareholders present in person or represented by proxy or, in the case of a Shareholder being a corporation, by its duly authorized representative, and voting at the AGM will be required to approve this proposal.
With respect to Proposal 1, the Board recommends that the Shareholders vote FOR the proposal to re-elect Mr. Zhiyang Wu as a director of the Company for a three-year term of office.
