Qiao Xing Universal Files Schedule 13E-3 in Connection with the Proposal to Acquire All Outstanding Shares of Qiao Xing Mobile
HUIZHOU, China, Oct. 25 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- This press release is issued for information purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to subscribe for or buy any security, nor is it a solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer of the securities referred to in this press release in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law.
Neither the United States Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the Proposed Offer or securities to be issued in connection therewith, or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this press release, or the merits or fairness of the Proposed Offer. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
Qiao Xing Universal Resources, Inc. (Nasdaq: XING, the "Company" or "XING"), an emerging Chinese resources company headquartered in Huizhou, Guangdong Province, today announced that it has filed with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") a Schedule 13E-3 transaction statement in connection with its proposed offer to acquire all the outstanding shares of Qiao Xing Mobile Communication Co., Ltd (NYSE: QXM, or "QXM") that it does not currently own, by way of a Scheme of Arrangement (the "Proposed Offer") under British Virgin Islands law. The Proposed Offer was first announced on September 8, 2010. XING currently owns approximately 61% of QXM's outstanding ordinary shares. A copy of the Schedule 13E-3 and related filings can be found on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov.
The transactions contemplated by the Proposed Offer constitute a "going-private" transaction under applicable SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the Schedule 13E-3 and the exhibits and appendices thereto, are required to be filed with the SEC in compliance with the requirements of Rule 13e-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Schedule 13E-3 is in preliminary form and is subject to completion or amendment. XING's offer to purchase all outstanding shares of QXM that it does not currently own will not commence until XING has amended the Schedule 13E-3 to complete all outstanding information and until an order sanctioning the Scheme of Arrangement has been issued by the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court in the High Court of Justice Virgin Islands, Commercial Division.
Mr. Wu Ruilin, Chairman and CEO of XING, said, "We hope that the information in the Schedule 13E-3 will help the investment public in evaluating the Proposed Offer. We believe that the Proposed Offer is fair and reasonable to the Minority Shareholders and in the best interests of the shareholders of both QXM and XING. Regardless of the outcome of our efforts to take QXM private, (which will be decided by a minority shareholder vote), we remain confident in our ability to execute on our strategy to become a pure resources company with meaningful scale and a focus on strategically important metals."
