PROSPECTUS
SUMMARY
This
summary highlights selected information from this prospectus. It does not
contain all of the information that is important to you. We encourage you to
carefully read this entire prospectus and the documents to which we refer you.
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed
information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.
Our
Company
Through
our wholly-owned subsidiary, Harbin Xinda Macromolecule Material Co., Ltd.
(“Xinda”), we develop, manufacture, and distribute modified plastics, primarily
for use in automobiles. The technology that has enabled Xinda to become China’s
leading producer of automotive modified plastics derives from our wholly-owned
research laboratory, Harbin Xinda Macromolecule Material Research Institute
(“the Research Institute”). The Research Institute has developed into a leader
in research and development for China’s macromolecular industry.
Modified
plastic is produced by changing the physical and/or chemical characteristics of
ordinary resin materials. In order for plastics to be used in the automobile
environment, they must satisfy certain physical criteria in terms of
electro-magnetic characteristics, reaction to light and heat, durability, flame
resistance, and mechanical functionality. Xinda’s unique formulas and processing
techniques enable us to produce low-cost, high-quality modified plastic
materials, which have been utilized in the exterior and interior trim and in the
functional components of more than 30 automobile brands manufactured in China,
including Audi, Red Flag, Volkswagen and Mazda. At present, Xinda manufactures
approximately 167 types of automobile-specific modified plastic products, 139 of
which have been certified for use by one or more of the automobile manufacturers
in China. The automotive applications for our plastics include exteriors
(automobile bumpers, rear- and side- view mirrors, license plate), interiors
(door panels, dashboard, steering wheel, glove compartment and safety belt
components), and functional components (air conditioner casing, heating and
ventilation casing, engine covers, and air ducts). In addition, we also provide
specially engineered plastics and environment-friendly plastics for use in the
assembly of equipment for oilfields, mining, ship power, power station
equipment, and other industries.
Our 167
products are organized into seven categories, based on their physical
characteristics:
·
|
COMPNIPER:
a form of modified polypropylene that exhibits high fluidity and impact
resistance. These products are primarily used for the interior automobile
parts, such as the inner panels, instrument panels, and box lids. 27 of
these products have been certified for use in the Chinese auto
industry.
|
·
|
COMPWIPER:
a form of modified polypropylene that exhibits low-temperature-resistance
and impact resistance. These products are primarily used for external
automobile parts, such as the front and back bumpers and mudguards. 23 of
these products have been certified for use in the Chinese auto
industry.
|
·
|
COMPGOPER:
a form of modified polypropylene that exhibits high-temperature-resistance
and resistance to static. These products are used primarily for automobile
functional components, such as the unit heater shells and air conditioner
shells. 33 of these products have been certified for use in the Chinese
auto industry.

BRBSPCL:
a form of alloy plastic. These products are used primarily for the
rearview mirror, grille, automotive electronics and other components. The
products can also be used in computers, plasma TVs, mobile phones and
other electronic and electrical consumer products. 7 of these products
have been certified for use in the Chinese auto
industry.
|
·

|
·
|
PEEK:
a special engineering form of modified plastics that can be used in
communication and transportation, electronic and electric appliance,
machinery, medical equipment and analytical equipment. Xinda is developing
products in this field based on the years’ research findings. However,
none of these products has been certified for use in the auto
industry.
|
Raw
Materials
The
principal raw materials used for the production of our products are plastic
resins such as polypropylene, ABS and nylon. Nearly 50% of these raw materials
come from overseas petrochemical enterprises, and 50% from domestic
petrochemical enterprises. All of our contracts for raw materials are one-year
renewable contracts.
Research
and Development
Our
Research Institute was organized to provide us with ongoing additions to our
technology, which represents the key to our competitive success. Our goal is to
utilize state-of-the-art methods and equipment to produce plastics of the
highest quality that are cost-efficient for our customers. Toward this end, we
have staffed the Research Institute with 66 researcher employees, over 90% of
whom have advanced degrees or specialized undergraduate training.
To
supplement the efforts of our Research Institute, we have developed cooperative
research programs with a number of the leading technology centers in China,
including the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of
Science, the Beijing Chemical Engineering Institute, the Harbin Institute of
Technology, the Northeast Forestry University and Jilin University. Besides
providing specialized research and development skills, these relationships help
us to formulate cutting edge research programs aimed at addressing developing
issues in plastics engineering.
2
All our
significant research and development activities are overseen by the members of
our Scientific Advisory Board, which we have assembled from among the leaders in
China’s chemical engineering industry. As a result of our collection
of academic and technological expertise, we have a portfolio of 10 patents for
which we have applications pending in China.
Marketing
Currently,
Xinda’s sales network covers the northeastern and eastern regions of China.
Xinda has two sales branches: one in Changchun City, where the largest portion
of the automobile manufacturing industry in China is located, and the other in
Ningbo City in the eastern part of China where the second largest portion of
such industry known as Shanghai Region is located.
We enter
into Sales Agency Agreements with local agents in areas where large automobile
manufacturers are located. The sales agents are responsible for developing the
markets for our products and collecting payments from our customers. In
distributing our products during the agency period, the agents are required to
use Xinda’s product certificate, brand and package standards set by us. They
must also reimburse us for the amount of payment that the customers fail to make
within our collection period. After the termination of the agency relationship,
the customers developed by the agents are proprietary to Xinda.
Competition
Currently,
Xinda’s primary Chinese competitor in the automobile industry is a large
industrial company named “Guangzhou Kingfa Science & Technology Co., Ltd.
(“Guangzhou Kingfa”). Guangzhou Kingfa entered the market in 2006 and its
facilities with a manufacturing capacity of 100,000 tons are under construction.
Guangzhou Kingfa has much larger financial resources than Xinda, however, it has
fewer certified products and sells less modified plastic to the automobile
industry than Xinda.
The
Chinese auto market is dominated, however, by modified plastic manufactured
overseas or in factories controlled by foreign companies. Almost 60% of the
modified plastic used in Chinese automobiles is manufactured by non-Chinese
fabricators, primarily manufacturers from Germany, the Netherlands and Japan.
Although Xinda and its Chinese competitors compare very favorably with these
foreign competitors in terms of price, service and delivery times, the lack of
production capacity in the Chinese modified plastics industry has allowed the
foreign competition to remain dominant in that industry.

RECENT
DEVELOPMENTS
On December 1, 2009, we consummated a
private placement of 15,188 shares of Series C Preferred Stock at a purchase
price of $1,000 per share, and two series of warrants, Series A Warrants and
Series B Warrants, in a private placement to the selling stockholders pursuant
to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Financing”) on the terms set forth
below. We paid a commission to Rodman & Renshaw, LLC, the exclusive
placement agent, in connection with the private placement, in the amount of
approximately $564,400, including expenses and issued them a warrant to purchase
117,261 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.50 per
share.
For a period of seven months and six
trading days after the Closing Date the Company shall not (a) file any
registration statements, other than in connection with the Financing, or (b)
offer, sell, grant or otherwise dispose of any of its, or its subsidiaries’
Common Stock or securities exercisable or convertible into shares of Common
Stock, debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security that is, at any
time convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock,
or securities exercisable to convertible into shares of Common Stock (a
“Subsequent Placement”). In addition to the foregoing restrictions, for a period
of eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date, the investors have a right to
participate in any Subsequent Placement; except that the foregoing restrictions
shall not apply to (x) certain issuances of the Company’s Securities, including,
without limitation, (i) under an approved equity incentive plan, and (ii) in
connection with mergers, acquisitions, strategic business partnerships or joint
ventures, in each case with non-affiliated third parties and otherwise on an
arm’s-length basis, underwritten public offerings.
The
Series C Preferred Stock is convertible into the Company’s Common Stock at a
conversion price of $4.60 per share and will accrue cumulative dividends at the
rate of 6% per annum until maturity on December 1, 2012. On the
Closing Date, the Series C Preferred Stock was convertible into 3,301,739 shares
of the Company’s Common Stock. The conversion rate for the Series C
Preferred Stock, which represents the number of shares of Common Stock that each
share of Series C Preferred Stock is convertible into, is calculated by dividing
the conversion amount per share of the Series C Preferred Stock, which on the
Closing Date was $1,000, by the conversion price, which on the Closing Date was
$4.60. If the Series C Preferred Stock is converted prior to
maturity, the Company will pay the holder an amount equal to the total dividend
that would accrue on the Series C Preferred Stock from the Closing Date through
maturity, less any dividend payments already made with respect to the converted
Series C Preferred Stock. Any shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding at
maturity will be redeemed by the Company for the conversion amount at such time.
The holders of the Series C Preferred Stock are entitled, at their option, to
have the shares of Series C Preferred Stock redeemed prior to maturity upon the
occurrence of (a) certain triggering events (such as, without limitation, the
failure to have the Registration Statement (as hereinafter defined) declared
effective and maintain effectiveness pursuant to the terms of the Registration
Rights Agreement, the failure to convert the Preferred Stock or pay dividends
when due as provided in the Certificate of Designations (as hereinafter defined)
and suspension from trading or failure of the Common Stock to be listed on a
national securities exchange for a period of five (5) consecutive trading days
or for more than an aggregate of ten (10) trading days in any 365-day period)
and (b) a change in control, as set forth in the Certificate of Designations of
the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”) to
be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on or prior to the
Closing Date.
The investors have a beneficial
ownership limitation on the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock and on
the exercise of the Warrants, such that no holder may convert its shares of
Series C Preferred Stock or exercise its Warrants, if after such conversion or
exercise the holder would beneficially own, together with its affiliates, more
than 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common
Stock. Each holder may lower this limitation percentage at any time or increase
this limitation percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% upon
61 days’ prior written notice to the Company.
Series
A Warrant
The Series A Warrants are exercisable
into 1,320,696 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.50 per share.
The Series A Warrant will be initially exercisable six months after the closing
of the transaction, and have a term of five years. The Series A Warrants contain
anti-dilution protection provisions which, in addition to adjustments for
customary corporate events, such as the subdivision or combination of the
Company’s shares of Common Stock, provide for an adjustment in the exercise
price if the Company issues additional shares of its Common Stock or securities
convertible or exchangeable for Common Stock at a purchaser price per share less
than $5.50. The exercise price would be reduced to such purchase price, but in
no event would it be less than $4.40. The Series A Warrants
are exercisable for cash at an exercise price of $5.50 per share. The
Series A Warrants also provide for cashless exercise if a registration statement
covering the resale of the shares underlying the Series A Warrants is not
available for the resale of the shares underlying the Series A Warrants.
5
Series
B Warrant
The Series B Warrants are exchangeable
for a maximum of 1,178,722 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of
$0.0001 per share. The Series B Warrants automatically become exercisable into
shares of Common Stock on the date (the “First Date of Determination”) that is
six trading days after the earlier of the date that the shares of Common Stock
underlying the Series C Preferred Stock and the Warrants are initially
registered under an effective resale registration statement (the “Effective
Date”) or the six month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Exemption Date”)
if the market value of the Company’s Common Stock (as described below) is less
than $4.60.
The
Series B Warrants are exercisable for cash at an exercise price of $0.0001 per
share. The Series B Warrants also provide for cashless exercise if a
registration statement covering the shares underlying the Series B Warrants is
not available for the resale of the shares underlying the Series B
Warrants. The
number of shares issuable under the Series B Warrant on the First Date of
Determination shall be based upon the difference between $4.60 and the market
value of our Common Stock (the “Initial Issuance”). The Series B Warrant also
provides for the additional issuance of shares of Common Stock under the Series
B Warrant if the initial resale registration statement does not register all of
the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series C Preferred Stock. Such
subsequent issuance would occur on the date that is six trading days after the
later of the Effective Date or the Exemption Date (the “Second Date of
Determination”). The number of additional shares issuable would be determined in
the same manner as the Initial Issuance.
The market value of the Common Stock
shall be calculated as 82.5% of the lower of (1) the arithmetic average of the
weighted average price of the Common Stock for each trading day during the five
(5) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the applicable date of
determination, and (2) the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the trading
day immediately preceding the First Date of Determination or the Second Date of
Determination, as applicable, but will not result in a market price lower than
$4.00. If the market value of our Common Stock is not less than $4.60 during
each of two applicable pricing periods, no shares of Common Stock would be
issuable under the Series B Warrant.
Registration
Rights Agreement
In connection with the Financing, we
entered into a registration rights agreement (the “RRA”) with the investors in
which we agreed to file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”)
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register at least
130% of the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Series C Preferred
Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) and the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) no later
than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. We have agreed to use our best
efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective within sixty (60)
calendar days after the Closing Date, or ninety (90) calendar days after the
Closing Date in the event the Registration Statement is subject to a “full
review” by the SEC. In the event we are unable to register all of the
Registrable Securities on the Registration Statement, due to the SEC’s
application of Rule 415, we have agreed to file such number of additional
registration statements as necessary to register all of the remaining
Registrable Securities.
We are required to keep all applicable
registration statements continuously effective under the Securities Act until
such date as is the earlier of the date when all of the securities covered by
that registration statement have been sold or the date on which such securities
may be sold without any restriction pursuant to Rule 144 (the “Financing
Effectiveness Period”). We will pay liquidated damages of 2% of each holder’s
initial investment in the Units sold in the Financing per month, if the
Registration Statement is not filed or declared effective within the foregoing
time periods or ceases to be effective prior to the expiration of the Financing
Effectiveness Period. However, no liquidated damages shall be paid (i) with
respect to any securities being registered that we are not permitted to include
in the Registration Statement due to the SEC’s application of Rule 415, or (ii)
with respect to any investor, solely because such investor is required to be
described as an underwriter under applicable securities laws, and such investor
elects not to have its shares registered.
Lock-Up
Agreement
In connection with the Financing, we
entered into separate Lock-Up Agreements with five affiliated persons and
entities of the Company (the “Affiliates”). Pursuant to the terms of the Lock-Up
Agreements, each of the Affiliates has agreed not to offer, sell, contract to
sell, assign, transfer, hypothecate gift, pledge or grant a security interest
in, or other wise dispose of any shares of our Common Stock that such Affiliates
presently own or may acquire after the Closing Date during the period commencing
on the Closing Date and expiring on the date that is one year after the Closing
Date (the “Lock-up Period”).

The description of the transactions
contemplated pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated November 27,
2009, and our obligations under the Certificate of Designations, the RRA, the
Lock-up Agreements and the Warrants set forth herein does not purport to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of these
documents filed as exhibits to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, as
filed with the SEC on November 30, 2009.

SPECIAL
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
prospectus contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements
provide our current expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking
statements include statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans,
objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not historical
facts. Words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “ongoing,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project”
or similar words or phrases, or the negatives of those words or phrases, may
identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not
necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The risk
factors referred to in this prospectus could materially and adversely affect our
business, financial conditions and results of operations and cause actual
results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any
forward-looking statements made by us, and you should not place undue reliance
on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks
only as of the date on which it is made and we do not undertake any obligation
to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the
occurrence of unanticipated events. The risks and uncertainties described below
are not the only ones we face. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is
not possible for us to predict which will arise. There may be additional risks
not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial to our
business. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our
business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause
actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking
statements. If any such risks occur, our business, operating results, liquidity
and financial condition could be materially affected in an adverse manner. Under
such circumstances, you may lose all or part of your investment.
The
industry and market data contained in this prospectus are based either on our
management’s own estimates or, where indicated, independent industry
publications, reports by governmental agencies or market research firms or other
published independent sources and, in each case, are believed by our management
to be reasonable estimates. However, industry and market data is subject to
change and cannot always be verified with complete certainty due to limits on
the availability and reliability of raw data, the voluntary nature of the data
gathering process and other limitations and uncertainties inherent in any
statistical survey of market shares. We have not independently verified market
and industry data from third-party sources. In addition, consumption patterns
and customer preferences can and do change. As a result, you should be aware
that market share, ranking and other similar data set forth herein, and
estimates and beliefs based on such data, may not be verifiable or
reliable.

RISK
FACTORS
An
investment in our Common Stock is very risky. If any of the risks described
below were realized, that event could cause the trading price of our Common
Stock to decline, and you could lose all or part of your
investment.
Risks
Related to Doing Business in China
Our
business operations are conducted entirely in China. Because China’s economy and
its laws, regulations and policies are different from those typically found in
the west and are continually changing, we will face risks including those
summarized below.
China
is a developing nation governed by a one-party government and may be more
susceptible to political, economic, and social upheaval than other
nations.
China is
a developing country governed by a one-party government. China is also a country
with an extremely large population, widening income gaps between rich and poor
and between urban and rural residents, minority ethnic and religious
populations, and growing access to information about the different social,
economic, and political systems to be found in other countries. China has also
experienced extremely rapid economic growth over the last decade, and its legal
and regulatory systems have changed rapidly to accommodate this growth. These
conditions make China unique and may make it susceptible to major structural
changes. Such changes could include a reversal of China’s movement to encourage
private economic activity, labor disruptions or other organized protests,
nationalization of private businesses, internal conflicts between the police or
military and the citizenry, and international political or military conflict. If
any of these events were to occur, it could shut down China’s economy and cause
us to temporarily or permanently cease operations.
The
PRC’s laws, regulations and policies, and changes to them, may limit our ability
to operate profitably or prevent us from operating at all.
Our
stores and distribution centers, as well as our suppliers and the agricultural
producers on whom they depend, are located in China. The PRC government has
exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every
sector of the Chinese economy, including the production, distribution and sale
of our merchandise. In particular, we are subject to regulation by local and
national branches of the Ministries of Commerce and Transportation, as well as
the General Administration of Quality Supervision, the State Administration of
Foreign Exchange, and other regulatory bodies. In order to operate under PRC
law, we require valid licenses, certificates and permits, which must be renewed
from time to time. If we were to fail to obtain the necessary renewals for any
reason, including sudden or unexplained changes in local regulatory practice, we
could be required to shut down all or part of our operations temporarily or
permanently.
Our
ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and
regulations, including those relating to agriculture, taxation, land use rights
and other matters. Such changes could be made at the national or local level and
in the form of: farm subsidies; corporate tax rates; employee benefits;
leaseholder or land-use rights; enforceability of contracts; intellectual
property; or retail pricing. The effects of such changes on our business cannot
be predicted but could be significant.
All
of our assets are located in China. So any dividends or proceeds from
liquidation are subject to the approval of the relevant Chinese government
agencies.
Our
assets are located inside China. Under the laws governing Foreign Investment
Enterprises in China, dividend distribution and liquidation are allowed but
subject to special procedures under the relevant laws and rules. Any dividend
payment will be subject to the decision of the board of directors and subject to
foreign exchange rules governing such repatriation. Any liquidation is subject
to both the relevant government agency’s approval and supervision as well the
foreign exchange control. This may generate additional risk for our investors in
case of dividend payment or liquidation.
9
Because
our funds are held in banks which do not provide insurance, the failure of any
bank in which we deposit our funds could affect our ability to continue in
business.
Banks and
other financial institutions in China do not provide insurance for funds held on
deposit. As a result, in the event of a bank failure, we may not have access to
funds on deposit. Depending upon the amount of money we maintain in a bank that
fails, our inability to have access to our cash could impair our operations,
and, if we are not able to access funds to pay our suppliers, employees and
other creditors, we may be unable to continue in business.
Anti-inflation
measures may be ineffective or harm our ability to do business in
China.
In recent
years, the PRC government has instituted anti-inflationary measures to curb the
risk of an overheated economy characterized by debilitating inflation. These
measures have included devaluations of the renminbi, restrictions on the
availability of domestic credit, and limited re-centralization of the approval
process for some international transactions. These austerity measures may not
succeed in slowing down the economy’s excessive expansion or control inflation,
or they may slow the economy below a healthy growth rate and lead to economic
stagnation or recession; in the worst-case scenario, the measures could slow the
economy without curbing inflation. The PRC government could adopt additional
measures to further combat inflation, including the establishment of price
freezes or moratoriums certain projects or transactions. Such measures could
harm the economy generally and hurt our business by limiting the income of our
customers available to purchase our merchandise, by forcing us to lower our
profit margins, and by limiting our ability to obtain credit or other financing
to pursue our expansion plans or maintain our business.
Governmental
control of currency conversions may affect the value of your
investment.
All of
our revenue is earned in renminbi, and any future restrictions on currency
conversions may limit our ability to use revenue generated in renminbi to make
dividend or other payments in U.S. dollars. Although the PRC government
introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of the renminbi
for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain,
including primarily the restriction that foreign-invested enterprises like us
may buy, sell or remit foreign currencies only after providing valid commercial
documents at a PRC banks specifically authorized to conduct foreign-exchange
business.
In
addition, conversion of renminbi for capital account items, including direct
investment and loans, is subject to governmental approval in the PRC, and
companies are required to open and maintain separate foreign-exchange accounts
for capital account items. There is no guarantee that PRC regulatory authorities
will not impose additional restrictions on the convertibility of the renminbi.
Such restrictions could prevent us from distributing dividends and thereby
reduce the value of our stock.
The
fluctuation of the exchange rate of the renminbi against the dollar could reduce
the value of your investment.
The value
of our Common Stock will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S.
dollars and renminbi. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S.
dollars we receive from an offering of our securities into renminbi for our
operations, appreciation of the renminbi against the U.S. Dollar could reduce
the value in renminbi of our funds. Conversely, if we decide to convert our
renminbi into U.S. dollars for the purpose of declaring dividends on our Common
Stock or for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the
renminbi, the U.S. dollar equivalent of our earnings would be reduced. In
addition, the depreciation of significant U.S. Dollar-denominated assets could
result in a charge to our income statement and a reduction in the value of these
assets.
On July
21, 2005, the PRC government changed its decade-old policy of pegging the value
of the renminbi to the U.S. Dollar. Under the new policy, the renminbi is
permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of
certain foreign currencies. This change in policy has resulted in an
appreciation of the renminbi against the U.S. dollar of approximately 12% as of
the date of this report. While the international reaction to the renminbi
revaluation has generally been positive, there remains significant international
pressure on the PRC government to adopt an even more flexible currency policy,
which could result in a further and more significant appreciation of the
renminbi against the U.S. Dollar.
10
We
receive all of our revenues in renminbi. The PRC government imposes controls on
the convertibility of renminbi into foreign currencies and, in certain cases,
the remittance of currency out of the China. Shortages in the availability of
foreign currency may restrict our ability to remit sufficient foreign currency
to pay dividends, or otherwise satisfy foreign currency denominated obligations.
Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account
items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from
the transaction, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from
the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”) by complying with
certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate governmental
authorities is required where renminbi are to be converted into foreign currency
and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses, such as the repayment of
bank loans denominated in foreign currencies.
The PRC
government could also restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for
current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us
from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we
may not be able to pay certain expenses as they come due.
Recently-modified
SAFE regulations may restrict our ability to remit profits out of China as
dividends.
SAFE
Regulations regarding offshore financing activities by PRC residents have
recently undergone a number of changes which may increase the administrative
burdens we face. The failure of our stockholders who are PRC residents to make
any required applications and filings pursuant to these regulations may prevent
us from being able to distribute profits and could expose us and our
PRC-resident stockholders to liability under PRC law.
SAFE
issued a public notice (the “October Notice”), effective as of November 1, 2005,
and implementation rules in May 2007, which require registration with SAFE by
the PRC-resident stockholders of any foreign holding company of a PRC entity.
These regulations apply to our stockholders who are PRC residents. In the
absence of such registration, the PRC entity cannot remit any of its profits out
of the PRC as dividends or otherwise.
In the
event that our PRC-resident stockholders have not followed the procedures
required under the October Notice and its implementation rules, we could lose
the ability to remit monies outside of the PRC and would therefore be unable to
pay dividends or make other distributions, and we could face liability for
evasion of foreign-exchange regulations. Such consequences could affect our good
standing under PRC regulations and our ability to operate in the PRC, and could
therefore diminish the value of your investment.
China’s
legal and judicial system may not adequately protect our business and operations
and the rights of foreign investors.
China’s
legal and judicial system may negatively impact foreign investors. In 1982, the
National People’s Congress amended the Constitution of China to authorize
foreign investment and guarantee the “lawful rights and interests” of foreign
investors in the China. However, the China’s system of laws is not yet
comprehensive. The legal and judicial systems in the China are still
rudimentary, and enforcement of existing laws is inconsistent. Many judges in
the China lack the depth of legal training and experience that would be expected
of a judge in a more developed country. Because the China judiciary is
relatively inexperienced in enforcing the laws that do exist, anticipation of
judicial decision-making is more uncertain than would be expected in a more
developed country. It may be impossible to obtain swift and equitable
enforcement of laws that do exist, or to obtain enforcement of the judgment of
one court by a court of another jurisdiction. The China’s legal system is based
on civil law, or written statutes; a decision by one judge does not set a legal
precedent that must be followed by judges in other cases. In addition, the
interpretation of Chinese laws may vary to reflect domestic political
changes.
As a
matter of substantive law, the foreign-invested enterprise laws provide
significant protection from government interference. In addition, these laws
guarantee the full enjoyment of the benefits of corporate articles and contracts
to foreign-invested enterprise participants. These laws, however, do impose
standards concerning corporate formation and governance, which are qualitatively
different from the general corporation laws of the United States. Similarly, the
PRC accounting laws mandate accounting practices that are not consistent with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. PRC accounting laws require that
an annual “statutory audit” be performed in accordance with PRC accounting
standards and that the books of account of foreign-invested enterprises are
maintained in accordance with Chinese accounting laws. Article 14 of the PRC
Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise Law requires a wholly foreign-owned enterprise
to submit certain periodic fiscal reports and statements to designated financial
and tax authorities, at the risk of business license revocation. Our subsidiary,
Harbin Xinda Macromolecule Material Co, Ltd., is a wholly foreign-owned
enterprise and is subject to these regulations.
11
As a
matter of enforcement, although the enforcement of substantive rights may appear
less clear than in the U.S., foreign-invested enterprises and wholly
foreign-owned enterprises are PRC-registered companies, which enjoy the same
status as other PRC-registered companies in business-to-business dispute
resolution. Because our Articles of Association do not specify a method for the
resolution of business disputes, the Company and other parties involved in any
business dispute are free to proceed either in the Chinese courts or, if they
are in agreement, through arbitration. Under PRC law, any award rendered by an
arbitration tribunal is enforceable in accordance with the United Nations
Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards.
Therefore, PRC laws relating to business-to-business dispute resolution should
not work to the disadvantage of foreign-invested enterprises such as the
Company.
However,
the PRC laws and regulations governing our current business operations are
sometimes vague and uncertain. There are substantial uncertainties regarding the
interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations, including but not
limited to the laws and regulations governing our business and the enforcement
and performance of our arrangements with suppliers in the event of the
imposition of statutory liens, death, bankruptcy and criminal proceedings. We
and any future subsidiaries are considered foreign persons or foreign-invested
enterprises under PRC laws, and as a result, we are required to comply with PRC
laws and regulations. These laws and regulations are sometimes vague and may be
subject to future changes, and their official interpretation and enforcement may
involve substantial uncertainty. The effectiveness of newly enacted laws,
regulations or amendments may be delayed, resulting in detrimental reliance by
foreign investors. New laws and regulations that affect existing and proposed
future businesses may also be applied retroactively. We cannot predict what
effect the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or regulations may have on
our business.
In
addition, some of our present and future executive officers and directors, most
notably Mr. Jie Han, may be residents of the PRC and not of the United States,
and substantially all the assets of these persons are located outside the United
States. As a result, it could be difficult for investors to effect service of
process in the United States, or to enforce a judgment obtained in the United
States against us or any of these persons.
Risks
Related to Our Business
Our
limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects
and results of operations.
We have a
limited operating history. Accordingly, you should consider our future prospects
in light of the risks and uncertainties experienced by early-stage companies in
evolving markets such as China. Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to
our ability to:
·
|
offer
new products to attract and retain a larger customer
base;
|
·
|
increase
awareness of our brand and continue to develop customer
loyalty;
|
·
|
respond
to competitive market conditions;
|
·
|
respond
to changes in our regulatory
environment;
|
·
|
manage
risks associated with intellectual property
rights;
|
·
|
maintain
effective control of our costs and
expenses;
|
12
·
|
raise
sufficient capital to sustain and expand our business;
and
|
·
|
attract,
retain and motivate qualified
personnel
|
Because
we are a relatively new company, we may not be experienced enough to address all
the risks in our business or in our expansion. If we are unsuccessful in
addressing any of these risks and uncertainties, our business may be materially
and adversely affected.
We
expect to incur costs related to our planned expansion and growth into new
plants and ventures which may not prove to be profitable. Moreover, any delays
in our expansion plans could cause our profits to decline and jeopardize our
business.
We
anticipate that our proposed expansion of our plants may include the
construction of new or additional facilities. Our cost estimates and projected
completion dates for construction of new production facilities may change
significantly as the projects progress. In addition, our projects will entail
significant construction risks, including shortages of materials or skilled
labor, unforeseen environmental or engineering problems, weather interferences
and unanticipated cost increases, any of which could have a material adverse
effect on the projects and could delay their scheduled openings. A delay in
scheduled openings will delay our receipt of increased sales revenues, which,
when coupled with the increased costs and expenses of our expansion, could cause
a decline in our profits.
Our plans
to finance, develop, and expand our facilities will be subject to the many risks
inherent in the rapid expansion of a high growth business enterprise, including
unanticipated design, construction, regulatory and operating problems, and the
significant risks commonly associated with implementing a marketing strategy in
changing and expanding markets. These projects may not become operational within
their estimated time frames and budgets as projected at the time the Company
enters into a particular agreement, or at all. In addition, the Company may
develop projects as joint ventures in an effort to reduce its financial
commitment to individual projects. The significant expenditures required to
expand our production plants may not ultimately result in increased
profits.
Our
business and operations are growing rapid. If we fail to effectively manage our
operation, our business and operating results could be harmed.
To date
we have experienced, and continue to experience, rapid growth in our operations.
This has placed, and will continue to place, significant demands on our
management, and on our operational and financial infrastructure. If we do not
effectively manage our operations, the quality of our products and services will
suffer, which would negatively affect our operating results. If the necessary
funding can be obtained, we will be able to improve our operational, financial
and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures. The complexity
of this undertaking means that we are likely to face many challenges, some of
which are not yet foreseeable. Problems may occur with our raw material
acquisition, with the roll-out of efficient manufacturing processes, and with
our ability to sell our products to our customers. If we are not able to obtain
the necessary funding and operate efficiently, our business plan may fall short
of its goals, and our ability to manage our growth could be hurt.
13
We
operate in a highly competitive marketplace, which could adversely affect our
sales and financial condition.
We
compete on the basis of quality, price, product availability and security of
supply, product development and customer service. Some competitors are larger
than us in certain markets and may have greater financial resources that allow
them to be in a better position to withstand changes in the industry. Our
competitors may introduce new products based on more competitive alternative
technologies that may be causing us to lose customers which would result in a
decline in our sales volume and earnings. Our customers demand high quality and
low cost products and services. The cost and availability of energy and
strategic raw materials may continue to deteriorate domestically while improving
in the international market, thus advantaging our foreign competition. Any such
change in the global market could adversely impact the demand for our products.
Competition could cause us to lose market share and certain lines of business,
or increase expenditures or reduce pricing, each of which would have an adverse
effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial
condition.
Related
party transactions may pose risks to our inventory.
Currently,
the Company has an Asset Purchase Agreement with a company affiliated with Mr.
Han’s, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, to acquire certain
production assets at below historical cost value. There may be occasions in
which additional related party transactions may take place. Even the Company
will do its utmost to minimize such transactions and conduct such transactions
in the best interest of its public stockholders, there may exist serious
conflict of interest and damage to the public stockholders. Such conflict of
interest and potential harm to public stockholders and investors’ interest may
negatively impact on the value of the Company.
An
inability to protect our intellectual property rights could reduce the value of
our products, services and brand.
Our
unique technologies and techniques are important assets for us. We have applied
to the Chinese government for intellectual property right protection for some of
the technologies that we own. However, this legal effort may sometimes not be
sufficient or effective, due to the lack of effective legal enforcement in
China. Any significant impairment of our intellectual property rights could harm
our business or our ability to compete. In addition, since protection of our
intellectual property rights is costly and time consuming, any unauthorized use
of our to-be-patented technologies could increase our cost of business and
eventually harm our operating results. Moreover, since we only registered
intellectual property rights for our technologies in China, our technologies may
not be well protected in other countries in which our products may be sold in
the future.
An
increase in raw material prices could increase Xinda’s costs and decrease its
profits.
Changes
in the cost of raw materials could significantly affect Xinda’s business. Since
cost for raw materials constitute a substantial part of our product price,
increase in the cost of raw materials will decrease our profit margin. Although
we may offset such deduction of our profit by increasing the price for our
products, unforeseeable events in the market may occur to prevent the
effectiveness of this method. We also rely on one major supplier to provide such
raw materials. Failure to maintain business relationship with this one major
supplier may make the raw materials inaccessible, and thus hurt our operation
result.
Our
performance and planned growth depend on raw material supply and related
costs.
14
We
rely on Mr. Jie Han, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, for the
management of our business, and the loss of his services could significantly
harm our business and prospects.
We
depend, to a large extent, on the abilities and participation of our current
management team, but have a particular reliance upon Mr. Jie Han, our Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer, for the direction of our business. The loss of the
services of Mr. Han for any reason could have a material adverse effect on our
business and prospects. We cannot assure you that the services of Mr. Han will
continue to be available to us, or that we will be able to find a suitable
replacement for Mr. Han. We have entered into an employment contract with Mr.
Han, but that agreement does not guarantee Mr. Han’s continuing to manage the
Company. We do not have key man insurance on Mr. Han, and if he were to die and
we were unable to replace him for a prolonged period of time, we could be unable
to carry out our long-term business plan, and our future prospects for growth,
and our business, could be harmed.
Difficulties
with hiring, employee training and other labor issues could disrupt our
operations.
We may
not be able to successfully hire and train new team members or integrate those
team members into the programs and policies of the Company. Any such
difficulties would reduce our operating efficiency and increase our costs of
operations.
Increased
environmental regulation in China could increase our costs of
operation.
Certain
processes utilized in the production of modified plastics result in toxic
by-products. To date, the Chinese government has imposed only limited regulation
on the production of these by-products, and enforcement of the regulations has
been sparse. Recently, however, there is a substantial increase in focus on the
Chinese environment, which has inspired considerable new regulation. Because
Xinda plans to export plastics to the U.S. and Europe in coming years, Xinda has
developed sufficient safeguards in its manufacturing processes to assure
compliance with the environmental regulations imposed by European and U.S.
regulators. This compliance regimen brings us into compliance with all Chinese
environmental regulations. Additional regulation, however, could increase our
cost of doing business, which would impair our profitability.
We
may have difficulty establishing adequate management and financial controls in
China.
The
People’s Republic of China has only recently begun to adopt the management and
financial reporting concepts and practices that investors in the United States
are familiar with. We may have difficulty in hiring and retaining employees in
China who have the experience necessary to implement the kind of management and
financial controls that are expected of a United States public company. If we
cannot establish such controls, we may experience difficulty in collecting
financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and
corporate records and instituting business practices that meet U.S.
standards.
We
may incur significant costs to ensure compliance with U.S. corporate governance
and accounting requirements.
We may
incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting
requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance
requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or
Sarbanes-Oxley, and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to increase
our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more
time-consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and
regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain
director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept
reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain
the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to
attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors, on
committees of our board of directors or as executive officers.
As a
public company, we are required to comply with rules and regulations of the SEC,
including expanded disclosure, accelerated reporting requirements and more
complex accounting rules. This will continue to require additional cost
management resources. We will need to continue to implement additional finance
and accounting systems, procedures and controls as we grow to satisfy these
reporting requirements. In addition, we may need to hire additional legal and
accounting staff with appropriate experience and technical knowledge, and we
cannot assure you that if additional staffing is necessary that we will be able
to do so in a timely fashion. If we are unable to complete the required annual
assessment as to the adequacy of our internal reporting or if our independent
registered public accounting firm is unable to provide us with a qualified
report as to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting
in the future, we could incur significant costs to become
compliant.
15
We
rely on highly skilled personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key
personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to grow
effectively.
Our
performance largely depends on the talents and efforts of highly skilled
individuals. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to identify,
hire, develop, motivate and retain highly skilled personnel for all areas of our
organization. Our continued ability to compete effectively depends on our
ability to attract new technology developers and to retain and motivate our
existing contractors.
We
have limited business insurance coverage.
The
insurance industry in China is still at an early stage of development. Insurance
companies in China offer limited business insurance products, and do not, to our
knowledge, offer business liability insurance. As a result, we do not have any
business liability insurance coverage for our operations. Moreover, while
business disruption insurance is available, we have determined that the risks of
disruption and cost of the insurance are such that we do not require it at this
time. Any business disruption, litigation or natural disaster might result in
substantial costs and diversion of resources.
Risks
related to an investment in our Common Stock
Our
Chief Executive Officer has a large degree of control over us through his
position and stock ownership and his interests may differ from other
stockholders.
Our Chief
Executive Officer, Mr. Jie Han has option on XD Engineering Plastics Company
Limited ‘s (“XD”) shares. As a result, Mr. Han will be able to influence the
outcome of stockholder votes on various matters, including the election of
directors and extraordinary corporate transactions such as business
combinations. Mr. Han’s interests may differ from that of other
stockholders.
XD
has significant voting power, which may enable XD to block actions that may
benefit the Common Stockholders, thus, reduce the value of their
holdings.
XD is the
holder of 1,000,000 shares of convertible Series A Preferred Stock of the
Company convertible approximately 1:38.2 into 38,194,072 shares of Common Stock
of the Company. XD also is the holder of 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred
Stock which has voting power equivalent to 40% of the total voting power of the
Company’s Common Stock and other consent rights on mergers and acquisitions,
significant acquisition or disposition of assets and change of control, among
others. This gives XD significant voting power. Such voting power may enable XD
to block actions that may benefit the Common Stockholders, thus, reduce the
value of their holdings.
We
do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We
currently intend to retain all future earnings for use in the operation and
expansion of our business. We do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the
foreseeable future but will review this policy as circumstances dictate. Should
we decide in the future to do so, as a holding company, our ability to pay
dividends and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of dividends or
other payments from our operating subsidiaries based in the PRC. Our operating
subsidiaries, from time to time, may be subject to restrictions on its ability
to make distributions to us, including restrictions on the conversion of local
currency into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory
restrictions. See “Risks related to doing business in the People’s Republic of
China” above.
16
Our
Common Stock may be subject to price volatility unrelated to our
operations.
The
market price of our Common Stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety
of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned
growth, quarterly operating results of other companies in the same industry,
trading volume in our Common Stock, changes in general conditions in the economy
and the financial markets or other developments affecting our competitors or us.
In addition, the stock market is subject to extreme price and volume
fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price
of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating
performance and could have the same effect on our Common Stock.
A large
number of shares of Common Stock will be issuable for future sale which will
dilute the ownership percentage of our current holders of Common Stock. The
availability for public resale of those shares may depress our stock
price.
Also as a
result, there will be a significant number of new shares of Common Stock on the
market in addition to the current public float. Sales of substantial amounts of
Common Stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, and the existence
of warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock at prices that may be below the
then current market price of the Common Stock, could adversely affect the market
price of our Common Stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through
the sale of our equity securities.
Enforcement
against us or our directors and officers may be difficult.
Because
our principal assets are located outside of the U.S. and some or all our
directors and officers, both present and future, reside outside of the U.S., it
may be difficult for you to enforce your rights based on U.S. federal securities
laws against us and our officers and some directors or to enforce a U.S. court
judgment against us or them in the PRC.
In
addition, our operating company is located in the PRC and substantially all of
its assets are located outside of the U.S. It may therefore be difficult for
investors in the U.S. to enforce their legal rights based on the civil liability
provisions of the U.S. Federal securities laws against us in the courts of
either the U.S. or the PRC and, even if civil judgments are obtained in U.S.
courts, to enforce such judgments in PRC courts. Further, it is unclear if
extradition treaties now in effect between the U.S. and the PRC would permit
effective enforcement against us or our officers and directors of criminal
penalties under the U.S. Federal securities laws or otherwise.
17
USE
OF PROCEEDS
We will
not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the selling
stockholders. We may receive proceeds from the issuance of shares of our Common
Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants, if exercised for cash. We intend to use
any proceeds from exercise of the Warrants for working capital and other general
corporate purposes. The Series C Preferred Stock, the Series A Warrants and
Series B Warrants are not being offered under this prospectus; however, the
shares of our Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred
Stock are being offered under this prospectus by the selling
stockholders.
There is
no assurance that any of the Warrants will ever be exercised for cash, if at
all. If all of the outstanding Warrants are exercised for cash at the initial
exercise price, we would receive aggregate gross proceeds of approximately
$7,263,946.
SELLING
STOCKHOLDERS
The
Shares being offered by the selling stockholders are those issuable upon
conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. For additional
information regarding the issuances of the Series C Preferred Stock and the
Warrants, see “Recent Developments” above. We are registering the
Shares in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the Shares for
resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of the Series C
Preferred Stock and the Warrants, the selling stockholders have not had any
material relationship with us within the past three years. In
addition, except for the obligations we have to the selling stockholders
pursuant to the terms of the Financing agreements, we do not have any continuing
relationship with any of the selling stockholders.
None of
the selling stockholders are broker-dealers. However, two of the
selling stockholders, Capital Ventures International and Oberweis China
Opportunities Fund, are affiliates of broker-dealers. Capital
Ventures International and Oberweis China Opportunities Fund did not acquire the
securities in the Financing as compensation for underwriting
activities. Further, they have each represented to us that they
acquired the securities issued in the Financing in the ordinary course of
business, and at the time of the purchase of the securities in the Financing,
they had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any
person to distribute the securities.
The table
below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the
beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock by each of the selling
stockholders. The second column lists the number of shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder, based on its ownership of
the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock and the Warrants, as of December 22,
2009, assuming conversion of all Series C Preferred Stock and exercise of the
Warrants held by the selling stockholders on that date.
The third
column lists the shares of Common Stock being offered by this prospectus by the
selling stockholders, without regard to any limitations on conversions and/or
redemptions of the Series C Preferred Stock.
In
accordance with the terms of the RRA with the holders of the Series C Preferred
Stock and the Warrants, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the
number of shares of Common Stock issued and issuable upon conversion of the
Series C Preferred Stock as of the trading day immediately preceding the date
the registration statement is initially filed with the SEC without regard to any
limitations on conversions and/or redemptions of the Preferred
Shares. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares
offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.
Under the
terms of the Series C Preferred Stock and the Warrants, a selling stockholder
may not convert the Series C Preferred Stock or exercise the Warrants, to the
extent such conversion or exercise would cause such selling stockholder,
together with its affiliates, to beneficially own a number of shares of Common
Stock which would exceed 4.99% of our then outstanding shares of Common Stock
following such conversion or exercise, excluding for purposes of such
determination shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C
Preferred Stock which have not been converted and upon exercise of the Warrants
which have not been exercised. The number of shares in the third
column does not reflect this limitation. The selling stockholders may
sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of
Distribution.”

Beneficial
ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Shares of
Common Stock subject to options or warrants currently exercisable or
exercisable within 60 days of the date of this prospectus, are deemed
outstanding for computing the percentage ownership of the stockholder
holding the options or warrants, but are not deemed outstanding for
computing the percentage ownership of any other stockholder. Since the
Series A Warrants are not exercisable until June 1, 2010, the selling
stockholders are not deemed to beneficially own them until 60 days prior
to such date. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to
this table, we believe stockholders named in the table have sole voting
and sole investment power with respect to the shares set forth opposite
such stockholder’s name. Percentage of ownership is based on 40,867,050
shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 3, 2010.
|
(2)
|
Pursuant
to the terms of the Warrants and the Certificate of Designation for the
Series C Preferred Stock, at no time may a holder of Series C Preferred
Stock convert such holder’s shares into shares of our Common Stock if the
conversion would result in such holder beneficially owning (as determined
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules
thereunder) more than 4.99% of our then issued and outstanding shares of
Common Stock; provided, however, that each holder may lower this
limitation percentage at any time or increase this limitation percentage
to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% upon 61 days’ prior written
notice to the Company. Similarly under the terms of the Warrants, at no
time may a holder exercise such holder’s Warrant if the exercise would
result in such holder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance
with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) more than
4.99% of our then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided,
however, that each holder may lower this limitation percentage at any time
or increase this limitation percentage to any other percentage not in
excess of 9.99% upon 61 days’ prior written notice to the Company. The
4.99% beneficial ownership limitation does not prevent a stockholder from
selling some of its holdings and then receiving additional shares.
Accordingly, each stockholder could exercise and sell more than 4.99% of
our Common Stock without ever at any one time holding more than this
limit. The number and percent of shares of our Common Stock to be held by
the selling stockholders after the offering of the resale securities,
assumes all of the resale securities are sold by the selling stockholders
and that the selling stockholders do not acquire any other shares of our
Common Stock prior to their assumed sale of all of the resale
shares.

the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that each selling stockholder
may sell, regardless of the 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation, more

PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
We are
registering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Series C Preferred Stock. We will not receive any of the proceeds
from the sale by the selling stockholders of the shares of Common
Stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation
to register the shares of Common Stock.
The
selling stockholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or
through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the
shares of Common Stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the
selling stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or
commissions or agent’s commissions. The shares of Common Stock may be
sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at
the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at
negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which
may involve crosses or block transactions,
·
|
on
any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the
securities may be listed or quoted at the time of
sale;
|
·
|
in
the over-the-counter market;
|
·
|
in
transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the
over-the-counter market;
|
·
|
through
the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options
exchange or otherwise;
|
·
|
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
solicits purchasers;
|
·
|
block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent
but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to
facilitate the transaction;
|
·
|
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its
account;
|
·
|
an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
exchange;
|
·
|
privately
negotiated transactions;
|
·
|
sales
pursuant to Rule 144;
|
·
|
broker-dealers
may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such
shares at a stipulated price per
share;
|
·
|
a
combination of any such methods of sale;
and
|
·
|
any
other method permitted pursuant to applicable
law.
|
If the
selling stockholders effect such transactions by selling shares of Common Stock
to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters,
broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts,
concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders or commissions from
purchasers of the shares of Common Stock for whom they may act as agent or to
whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as
to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those
customary in the types of transactions involved). In connection with
sales of the shares of Common Stock or otherwise, the selling stockholders may
enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in
short sales of the shares of Common Stock in the course of hedging in positions
they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of Common
Stock short and deliver shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus to
close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such
short sales. The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge shares
of Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such
shares.
22
The
selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of
the Series C Preferred Stock and Warrants or shares of Common Stock owned by
them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the
pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of Common Stock from
time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus
under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to
include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling
stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may
transfer and donate the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances in which
case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be
the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The
selling stockholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of
the shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning
of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions
allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions
or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular
offering of the shares of Common Stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if
required, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate amount of
shares of Common Stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including
the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions
and other terms constituting compensation from the selling stockholders and any
discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to
broker-dealers.
Under the
securities laws of some states, the shares of Common Stock may be sold in such
states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In
addition, in some states the shares of Common Stock may not be sold unless such
shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption
from registration or qualification is available and is complied
with.
There can
be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares
of Common Stock registered pursuant to the shelf registration statement, of
which this prospectus forms a part.
The
selling stockholders and any other person participating in such distribution
will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder,
including, without limitation, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit
the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of Common Stock by the
selling stockholders and any other participating person. Regulation M
may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the
shares of Common Stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the
shares of Common Stock. All of the foregoing may affect the
marketability of the shares of Common Stock and the ability of any person or
entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of
Common Stock.
We will
pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to
the registration rights agreement, estimated to be $60,000 in total, including,
without limitation, SEC filing fees and expenses of compliance with state
securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, that a selling stockholder
will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if
any. We will indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities,
including some liabilities under the Securities Act, in accordance with the
registration rights agreements, or the selling stockholders will be entitled to
contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling stockholders
against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, that
may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling
stockholder specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the
related registration rights agreement, or we may be entitled to
contribution.
Once sold
under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the
shares of Common Stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other
than our affiliates.
