Last week, Ms. Sabrina Khan resigned from her position as Aptorum Group Limited’s (the “Company”) Chief Financial Officer, due to personal reasons. Mr. Martin Siu will replace Ms. Khan as the Company’s Head of Finance on that same date. Ms. Khan’s resignation is not as a result of any disagreement with the Company relating to its operations, policies or practices. Ms. Khan will continue to serve out her remaining notice period at the Company and the Board is grateful for her significant contribution to the Company over the years. Ms. Khan, through her personal service company, will remain as a strategic consultant to the Company.
The Board is very pleased to appoint Mr. Siu as the Company’s new Head of Finance. Mr. Siu is a certified public account with a Bachelor of Business Administration majoring in accounting. Mr. Siu has over 19 years’ experience in the field of audit and regulatory consultancy and has supported a number of listed companies over the years. Mr. Siu will be serving his newly appointed role from the United Kingdom and his appointment as Head of Finance ensures continuity in the Company going forward. Mr. Sui is being appointed pursuant to an Operations Services & Secondment Agreement between Aptus Management Limited and MG Consultancy Limited (“MG”), through which Mr. Siu provides his services. MG charges an initial monthly fee of approximately USD7,600, which may be increased to approximately USD12,700 during the term of the agreement. The agreement has a three-year term, which will automatically renew for additional one-year terms, unless earlier terminated by either party with one-month written notice.
Mr. Darren Lui, currently Chief Executive Officer, will also be taking over as chief accounting officer of the Company. Mr. Lui is a qualified chartered accountant.
