On August 30, 2012, Mr. Peter Li informed the Board of Directors of China Valves Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) that he resigned as the Company’s director and the chairman of the Audit Committee, effective immediately. On the
same day, Mr. William Haus also informed the Board that he resigned as the Company’s director and the chairman of the Compensation Committee, effective immediately. Their resignation is not in connection with any known disagreement with the
Company on any matter. The Company intends to elect new independent directors to fill the vacancies created by these resignations as soon as possible.
As a result of the resignation of Mr. Li and Mr. Haus, the Company is not currently in compliance with Listing Rules 5605(b)(1) and 5605(c)(2)(A) of the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC. NASDAQ Listing Rules 5605(b)(1) and 5605(c)(2)(A) require, among other
things, that a majority of the Board of Directors be comprised of independent directors as defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) and the Company’s Audit Committee be comprised of at least three members. Currently the Company’s Board of Directors
consists of one independent director and two non-independent directors and the Audit Committee as well as the Compensation Committee and the Nominating Committee is comprised of one member.
The Company notified NASDAQ of its noncompliance with the NASDAQ listing rules described above on August 30, 2012, which notification also specified the Company’s reliance on the cure period specified in NASDAQ Listing Rules 5605 (b)(1)(A) and
5605(c)(4)(B). In accordance with NASDAQ Listing Rules 5605 (b)(1)(A) and 5605(c)(4)(B), the Company has a cure period in order to regain compliance until the earlier of the Company’s next annual shareholders’ meeting or August 30, 2013.
