Recent Developments

On July 20, 2017, the Company announced that it has entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with America-Asia Diabetes Research Foundation (the "Foundation"), a California corporation that owns 90.27% of the equity interests of San MediTech (Huzhou) Co. Ltd. ("San MediTech"), a China-based medical device company engaged in the research, development and marketing of glucose control products, and the shareholders of the Foundation (the "Selling Shareholders"). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Foundation in exchange for up to 81,243,000 of the Company's ordinary shares (the "Acquisition").

On September 6, 2017, the Company announced the final voting results for each of the proposals considered at the Company's special meeting that was held on September 5, 2017 (the "Meeting"). At the Meeting, the Company's shareholders approved the Company's proposed acquisition of the Foundation and the sale of the Company's existing business and operations to an affiliate of the Company's Chairman, Dr. Liang Tang (collectively, the "Transactions"). A total of 17,333,601 ordinary shares, representing approximately 87.6% of the Company's issued and outstanding ordinary shares, were represented at the Meeting. Dr. Tang abstained from voting all of the 11,850,000 shares he holds, as previously disclosed by the Company.

On November 7, 2017, San MediTech's new mobile dynamic continuous glucose monitoring ("CGM") system has been approved by the China Food and Drug Administration (the "CFDA"). As previously disclosed, due to the delay of the CFDA's approval for the new generation product and the expiration of the old generation products' CFDA license earlier this year, San MediTech's sales in 2017 had been adversely affected; thus, the previously agreed earn-out target was impractical. On November 13, 2017, the Company entered into the second amendment to the Exchange Agreement with the Foundation (the "Second Amendment"). Pursuant to the Second Amendment, (a) the revenue target of $6,470,588 was changed from year 2017 to year 2018, and (b) in the event that there is a termination of the Exchange Agreement by the Company pursuant to certain conditions, Howard Gang Hao and Ken Yiming Hao, principle shareholders of the Foundation, shall jointly and severally, (i) transfer to the Company 3,434 ordinary shares of the Foundation or (ii) pay to the Company a termination fee in cash equal to the fair market value of 3,434 ordinary shares of the Foundation but not less than $5,600,000 (the "Sellers Termination Fee"). The Company intends to file amended proxy and hold another special shareholders' meeting for shareholders to vote on the Second Amendment. The transactions have not yet closed as of the date hereof.
