Report on Candidates for Independent Directors of the Company
Dear Shareholders:
On November 3, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors received written resignation letters from independent directors Wang Huiquan and Xing Tiancai, who submitted their resignations in accordance with the Liaoning Provincial Party Committee Organization Department’s requirements for further standardizing the part-time (or concurrent) appointments of Party and government leading cadres in enterprises. As a result, two seats on the sixth-term Board of Directors designated for independent directors have become vacant, necessitating by-elections to fill these positions.
The Company’s Board of Directors has nominated Dai Dashuang and Liu Jiwei as candidates for independent director on the sixth session of the Board. This nomination was made after a thorough review of the nominees’ professional backgrounds, educational qualifications, titles, detailed work histories, and all concurrent positions.
