Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
As previously reported, the China Electric Motor, Inc. (the “Company”) Board of Directors (the “Board”) formed a Special Committee on March 31, 2011 to investigate possible discrepancies concerning the Company’s banking statements identified by the Company’s auditors. On May 24, 2011, all of the members of the Special Committee (James M. Lee, Tony Shen and Liang Tang) informed the Board that each such member had resigned, effective immediately, from the Special Committee. The Special Committee was allowed to and did conduct a preliminary investigation, which included being allowed to obtain official bank statements directly from the bank where the Company keeps its account, to conduct, through counsel, preliminary interviews with certain key executives and employees, who made themselves available for the preliminary interviews, and to retain forensic consultants. However, Messrs. Lee, Shen and Tang disagreed with certain Company officers and directors as to the appropriate scope of the investigation going forward (those officers viewing the scope as too wide and the estimated fees as too high), and this disagreement was the reason for their resignations from the Special Committee. As of May 26, 2011, each of Messrs. Lee, Shen, and Tang remain on the Company’s Board of Directors.
