Explanatory Statement
This Explanatory Statement has been prepared to provide information which the Directors believe to be material to Shareholders in deciding whether or not to pass the Resolutions.
Shareholders will be offered the opportunity to discuss the Annual Report at the Meeting. The Company will not provide a hard copy of the Annual Report to Shareholders unless specifically requested to do so. The Annual Report is available on the Company's website at https://www.starphoenixgroup.com/investors/reports-and-publications/.
There is no requirement for Shareholders to approve the Annual Report. However, the Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions or make comments about the Annual Report and the management of the Company. Shareholders will also be given an opportunity to ask the auditor questions as permitted by the Corporations Act.
The Constitution set outs the requirements for determining which Director are to retire by rotation at an annual general meeting.
Pursuant to clause 13.2 of the Constitution, at the Company's annual general meeting one third of the Directors, the number nearest to one-third if the number of Directors is not divisible by 3, (rounded upwards in case of doubt), shall retire, provided that no director shall hold office for longer than 3 years or until the third annual general meeting after their appointment, whichever is longer. Directors retiring by rotation are then eligible for election by Shareholders.
Mr Zhiwei Gu, having served as a director since 11 December 2014 and having last been re-elected as a director on 30 November 2017, retires by rotation and, being eligible, seeks re-election from Shareholders.
The Board does not consider Mr Gu to be an independent director, because he is an executive Director.
The Board (other than Mr Gu himself who does not make a recommendation in respect of his own election) SUPPORTS the election of Mr Gu and recommends that Shareholders vote in FAVOUR of Resolution 1.
The Constitution allows the Directors to appoint at any time a person to be a Director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Directors, but only where the total number of Directors does not at any time exceed the maximum number specified by the Constitution.
Pursuant to the Constitution, any Director so appointed holds office only until the next following annual general meeting and is then eligible for election by Shareholders but shall not be taken into account in determining the Directors who are to retire by rotation (if any) at that meeting.
Dr YuFeng Meng, having been appointed as a Director by the other Directors on 14 April 2020 and having not previously been elected by Shareholders, will retire in accordance with the Constitution and, being eligible, seeks election from Shareholders.
Dr Meng's career spans over 30 years across the USA, Australia, Hong Kong and China, where she held various leadership, management and consulting roles in different sectors including education, aircraft tyre logistics, waste management, real estate, equity investment, banking and Free Trade Zone management and marketing. Dr Meng has experience in the public sector, project management, and finance (particularly in the Build-Operate-Transfer or Build-Own-Operate-Transfer project financing). More recently, she organised numerous government trade delegations to promote bilateral business co-operation between China and Australia. Dr Meng holds a PhD in Business Administration from InterAmerican University and an MBA in Business Administration from Southern California University.
The Board does not consider Dr YuFeng Meng to be an independent director, because she is a nominee of a substantial shareholder (Beijing Sibo Investment Management LP (Sibo)).
On 25 September 2020, Shareholders passed a resolution for the removal of Dr Meng as a Director. Under the Corporations Act, this removal does not take effect until a replacement to represent Sibo's interests has been appointed.
To date, Sibo has not put forward an alternative nominee to be appointed as a director of the Company despite the directive of the majority of Shareholders for the removal of Dr Meng as a Director.
If Shareholders do not pass this Resolution, Dr Meng will cease to be a Director and Sibo will not be permitted to nominate Dr Meng again but will be permitted to nominate another person to be appointed as a director of the Company, subject to the approval of the Company's Nominated Adviser.
The Board (other than Dr YuFeng Meng who does not make a recommendation in respect of her own election) DO NOT SUPPORT the election of Dr YuFeng Meng and recommends that Shareholders vote AGAINST of Resolution 2. The Directors (other than Dr YuFeng Meng) believe that Dr Meng should be removed as a director of the Company, as the majority of the Company's Shareholders already passed a resolution for her removal as a Director at the Shareholders' Meeting held on 25 September 2020.
Mr Lubing Liu is employed by the Company under a contract dated 24 December 2019 as Chief Operations Officer (COO) of the Company (Employment Agreement). Mr Liu is currently paid a fee of US$236,712 per annum for his role as COO.
The Company and Mr Liu have entered into an agreement to amend the Employment Agreement as follows (Proposed Liu Amendments):
(a) The Company will on 4 January 2021, subject to shareholder approval, issue to Mr Liu (or his nominee) Shares in lieu of cash payments for fees totaling US$39,452 which will accrue under the Employment Agreement from 1 November 2020 to 31 December 2020 (Liu Fee Shares).
(b) The number of Shares to be issued to Mr Liu (or his nominee) will be calculated based on the:
(i) VWAP of Shares traded on AIM over the 30 trading days immediately preceding the date of issue; and
(ii) GBP/USD exchange rate as published by Bloomberg at 5pm immediately preceding the date of issue.
(c) The Company will seek shareholder approval at the next shareholders' meeting to issue the Liu Fee Shares to Mr Liu (or his nominee) in lieu of the fees set out above, with such approval to be obtained no later than 31 December 2020.
(d) In the event that shareholders vote against the issue of the Liu Fee Shares at the Meeting, the retained salary will be paid in cash immediately following the Meeting.
(e) The Liu Fee Shares will be subject to trading restrictions of 12 months from the date of issue.
Mr Zhiwei Gu provides services to the Company pursuant to an agreement between Porfinero Limited (Porfinero) and the Company dated 1 March 2020 (Porfinero Agreement). Mr Gu is currently paid a fee of US$55,000 per annum for his role as Executive Chairman of the Company, and an additional US$320,000 per annum for providing the Consultancy Services to the Company through Porfinero.
The Company and Porfinero have agreed to the following proposed amendments to the Porfinero Agreement (Proposed Porfinero Amendments):
(a) The Company will on 4 January 2021, subject to shareholder approval, issue to Mr Gu (or his nominee) Shares in lieu of cash payments for fees totaling US$125,000 which will accrue under the Porfinero Agreement from 1 September 2020 to 31 December 2020 (Porfinero Fee Shares).
(b) The number of Shares to be issued to Mr Gu (or his nominee) will be calculated based on the:
(i) VWAP of Shares traded on AIM over the 30 trading days immediately preceding the date of issue; and
(ii) GBP/USD exchange rate as published by Bloomberg at 5pm immediately preceding the date of issue.
(c) The Company will seek shareholder approval at its next shareholder meeting to issue the Porfinero Fee Shares to Mr Gu (or his nominee) in lieu of the fees set out above, with such approval to be obtained no later than 31 December 2020.
(d) In the event that shareholders vote against the issue of Shares at the Meeting, the retained salary will be paid in cash immediately following the Meeting.
(e) The Porfinero Fee Shares will be subject to trading restrictions for 12 months from the date of issue.
For a public company, or an entity that the public company controls, to give a financial benefit to a related party of the public company, the public company or entity must:
(a) obtain the approval of the public company's members in the manner set out in sections 217 to 227 of the Corporations Act; and
(b) give the benefit within 15 months following such approval,
unless the giving of the financial benefit falls within an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act.
The issue of the Liu Fee Shares and the Porfinero Fee Shares to Mr Liu and Mr Gu respectively constitutes giving a financial benefit. Mr Liu and Mr Gu are related parties of the Company by reason of being Directors.
Section 195 of the Corporations Act provides that a director of a public company must not vote or be present during meetings of directors when matters in which that director holds a 'material personal interest' are being considered. The Directors other than Mr Lubing Liu and Mr Zhiwei Gu do not have a material personal interest in these Resolutions. However, in the interests of good corporate practice consistent with ASIC Regulatory Guide 76 (Table 2) for directors to avoid making a recommendation for resolutions about each other's remuneration (as they may pose a conflict of interest) neither of the Directors the subject of Resolutions 3 and 4, being Mr Liu and Mr Gu, have considered whether an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act applies to these Resolutions.
Since Shareholders voted to remove Dr YuFeng Meng from office at the Shareholders' Meeting held on 25 September 2020, Dr YuFeng Meng has not participated in Board meetings. The remaining Director, Dr Mu Luo, is unable to form a quorum at Board level to make a determination on whether an exception set out in sections 210 to 216 of the Corporations Act applies to Resolutions 3 and 4. Therefore, the Board has determined in accordance with section 195(4) of the Corporations Act to seek Shareholder approval for the issue of the Liu Fee Shares and the Porfinero Fee Shares.
Pursuant to and in accordance with section 219 of the Corporations Act, the following information is provided in relation to the issue of the Shares the subject of Resolutions 3 and 4:
(a) the Shares will be issued to the following parties:
(i) the Liu Fee Shares will be issued to Mr Lubing Liu; and
(ii) the Porfinero Fee Shares will be issued to Mr Zhiwei Gu;
(b) each of Mr Liu and Mr Gu is a Director of the Company;
(c) the nature of the financial benefit being provided is the issue of the Liu Fee Shares and the Porfinero Fee Shares. The Shares are all to be on the same terms and conditions as the Company's existing fully paid ordinary shares. The number of the Liu Fee Shares and Porfinero Fee Shares is to be calculated as follows:
(i) Liu Fee Shares: US$39,452:
(A) converted into an amount in GBP at the GBP/USD exchange rate as published by Bloomberg at 5pm immediately preceding the date of issue of the Shares, divided by,
(B) VWAP of Shares traded on AIM over the 30 trading days immediately preceding the date of issue of the Shares; and
(ii) Porfinero Fee Shares: US$125,000:
(A) converted into an amount in GBP at the GBP/USD exchange rate as published by Bloomberg at 5pm immediately preceding the date of issue of the Shares, divided by,
(B) VWAP of Shares traded on AIM over the 30 trading days immediately preceding the date of issue of the Shares;
(d) each Director's interests in the Resolution and the reasons for giving or not giving a recommendation on these Resolutions as the case may be is set out in Sections 4.2 and 4.3;
(e) the value of the fees to be satisfied by the issue of the Liu Fee Shares is US$39,452, and the value of the fees to be satisfied by the issue of the Porfinero Fee Shares is US$125,000. The number of Shares that will be issued depend on the application of the calculation set out in Section 4.4(c), which includes the 30-day VWAP of the Company's shares, and the GBP/USD exchange rate, both as at the date of issue of the Shares. No discount to the 30-day VWAP is allowed, so the Shares will be issued at a market price.
As an illustration, if the formula in Section 4.4(c) using the 30-day VWAP and exchange rate as at 2 November 2020 were applied, the number of Shares to be issued would be:
(i) Liu Fee Shares: US$39,452
(A) US$39,452 converted into GBP at USD1.2917:GBP1.00 = GBP30,542.70
(B) GBP30,542.70 / GBP0.0165 = 1,851,072 Shares.
(ii) Porfinero Fee Shares: US$125,000:
(A) US$125,000 converted into GBP at USD1.2917:GBP1.00 = GBP96,771.70
(B) GBP96,771.70 / GBP0.0165 = 5,864,951 Shares.
Note that this calculation is an example only and the outcome will depend on the 30-day VWAP of the Company's Shares on AIM, and the GBP/USD exchange rate, as at the date of issue of the Shares, and that both the Company's Share price and the exchange rate fluctuate;
(f) the relevant interests in securities of the Company of the Directors the subject of Resolutions 3 and 4 are set out below:
|
Director |
Shares |
Options |

Mr Lubing Liu |
Nil |

Mr Zhiwei Gu |
20,833 |

(g) the current total annual remuneration from the Company to the Directors the subject of Resolutions 3 and 4 is set out in Section 4.1;
(h) if the Liu Fee Shares are issued, Shares to the value of US$39,452 would be issued, and if the Porfinero Fee Shares are issued, Shares to the value of US$125,000 would be issued.
As noted, the actual number of Shares will depend on the 30-day VWAP and the exchange rate at the date of issue. Using the example calculation in Section 4.4(c), the total number of Shares on issue would increase by 7,716,023 from 143,261,894 (being the number of Shares on issue at the date of this Notice) to 150,977,917 (assuming that no Options or Convertible Notes are exercised and no other Shares are issued) with the effect that the shareholding of existing Shareholders would be diluted by an aggregate of approximately 5.11%, comprising approximately 1.23% by Lubing Liu and 3.88% by Zhiwei Gu.
The Shares will be issued at a market price for Shares prevailing as at the date of issue as described at Section 4.4(c). As the Shares are to be issued to satisfy obligations to pay the relevant fees to the Directors which will have accrued by the time of issue, and there is no discount being offered in respect of the calculation of the number of Shares, there is unlikely to be a cost to the Company from issuing the Shares.
The highest and lowest closing prices of Shares on AIM during the 12 months preceding 2 November 2020, being the date the calculation in Section 4.4(e) was prepared, and the closing price on that date, are set out below:

(i) the primary purpose of the issue of the Liu Fee Shares and Porfinero Fee Shares is to settle part of their entitlement to fees pursuant to their respective employment agreements with the Company and to reduce cash expenditure on executive remuneration;
(j) Dr Luo, a Director who does not have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 3 and 4, considers the issue of the Liu Fee Shares and Porfinero Fee Shares is a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration for the following reasons:
(i) the non-cash form of this benefit will allow the Company to spend a greater proportion of its cash reserves on its operations than it would if alternative cash forms of remuneration were given;
(ii) the issue of the Liu Fee Shares and Porfinero Fee Shares will align the interests of those Directors with the interests of Shareholders; and
(iii) it is not considered that there are any significant opportunity costs to the Company or benefits foregone by the Company in issuing the Liu Fee Shares and Porfinero Fee Shares upon the terms proposed;
(k) Dr Meng, a Director who does not have a material personal interest in the outcome of Resolutions 3 and 4, considers the issue of the Liu Fee Shares and Porfinero Fee Shares is not a reasonable and appropriate method to provide cost effective remuneration for the following reason:
(i) it would not be in the interests of all Shareholders to dilute their holdings in order to pay for salaries, as the market price for any Shares is, in her opinion, undervalued. Instead, the Company should focus on rebuilding the business as there is good prospects for increasing Share value;
(l) in forming their reasoning and determining the quantity of Shares to be issued to Messrs Liu and Gu, Dr Luo considered the current market practices when determining the number of Shares to be issued and quantity of fees to be converted, the level of dilution to Shareholders, as well as the deemed issue price (relative to the market price of Shares at the time of conversion of the fees); and
(l) the Board is not aware of any other information that would be reasonably required by Shareholders to allow them to make a decision whether it is in the best interests of the Company to pass Resolutions 3 and 4.
