BUSINESS History and development of the company FlatWorld Acquisition Corp. (“FlatWorld”, the “Company” or “we”) was formed on June 25, 2010 as a British Virgin Islands business company with limited liability. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation or contractual control arrangement with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, or engaging in any other similar business transaction with an unidentified operating business or assets (“Business Transaction”). The Company’s efforts in identifying a prospective target business for its Business Transaction is not limited to a particular industry, geographic region or minimum transaction value, but will focus its search on identifying a prospective target business in either (i) the global business services sector or (ii) emerging Asian markets. The Company is currently evaluating Business Transaction candidates. All activity through December 31, 2015 relates to the Company’s formation and initial public offering described below and identifying and investigating prospective target businesses with which to consummate a Business Transaction. Business overview FlatWorld Acquisition Corp., is a blank check or shell company formed as a British Virgin Islands business company with limited liability for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation or contractual control arrangement with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, or engaging in any other similar business transaction with one or more operating businesses or assets that we have not yet identified.  While our efforts in identifying a prospective target business for our initial business transaction are not limited to a particular industry, geographic region or minimum transaction value, we have and will focus our search on identifying a prospective target business in (i) the global business services sector where our officers, directors and advisors have many years of experience and, in particular, where opportunities exist to take advantage of scalable, low-cost delivery destinations to improve margins and accelerate growth through expanded access to new high-growth emerging markets for the company’s services, and (ii) attractive, high growth markets where the target business has significant growth potential and/or we can provide international expansion and domain expertise to enhance revenue opportunities. Evaluation of these factors involve subjective judgment by our officers, which gives us a great deal of discretion in determining whether a prospective target business is appropriate to pursue.  We presently have no business operations and no financial history. Strategy While our efforts in identifying a prospective target business are not be limited to a particular industry, geographic region or minimum transaction value, we have focused and will continue to focus our search on identifying a prospective target business in: (i) the global business services sector where our officers, directors and advisors have many years of experience and, in particular, where opportunities exist to take advantage of scalable, low-cost delivery destinations to improve margins and accelerate growth through expanded access to new high-growth emerging markets for the company’s services, and (ii) attractive, high growth markets where the target business has significant growth potential and/or we can provide international expansion and domain expertise to enhance revenue opportunities. We intend to identify targets where we can: (i) provide the expertise to manage global sourcing strategies; (ii) provide international expansion and domain expertise; and (iii) create global companies with seamless control of resources, quality and security of service and product offerings. We have identified the following key investment criteria that we believe are important and that we intend to use in evaluating business transaction opportunities. While we intend to utilize these criteria in evaluating business transaction opportunities, we expect that no individual criterion will entirely determine a decision to pursue a particular opportunity. Further, any particular business transaction opportunity which we ultimately determine to pursue may not meet one or more of these criteria: ·High growth potential.We will seek a business transaction with one or more businesses or assets with significant growth potential in both the firm’s current domestic markets as well as new global markets. ·Long-term revenue visibility.We will seek a business transaction with one or more businesses or assets that have a history of long-term revenue visibility, including a high recurring revenue mix and strong order  2   book. We will focus on companies that have predictable cash flows as well as low customer attrition and a diversified customer base. ·Defensible market position.We will focus on one or more businesses or assets that offer strong products and/or services and that demonstrate advantages when compared to their competitors, which may help to protect their market position and profitability and deliver strong free cash flow. ·Potential to benefit from globalization trends.We will seek a business transaction with one or more businesses or assets (i) for which labor represents a significant portion of operating expense and which can take advantage of global sourcing of labor from low-cost delivery centers to deliver high-quality services at lower cost, and/or (ii) that offer the opportunity to accelerate revenue growth by accessing new global markets. ·Strong management team.We will seek a business transaction with one or more businesses or assets that have strong, experienced management teams or those that provide a platform for us to assemble an effective and experienced management team. We will focus on management teams with a proven track record of driving revenue growth, enhancing profitability and creating value for their shareholders. ·Opportunities for add-on acquisitions.We will seek a business transaction with one or more businesses or assets that we can grow both organically and through acquisitions. In addition, our ability to source proprietary opportunities and execute transactions will help the business we acquire grow through acquisition, and thus serve as a platform for further add-on acquisitions. Status as a Public Company We believe our structure will make us an attractive business transaction partner to prospective target businesses. As an existing public company, we will offer a target business an alternative to the traditional initial public offering through a merger or other business transaction.  In this situation, the owners of the target business would exchange their equity shareholdings in the target business for ordinary shares in the company. We believe target businesses will find this path to be less expensive, and offer greater certainty of becoming a public company than the typical initial public offering process. In an initial public offering, there are typically expenses incurred in marketing, road show and public reporting efforts that will likely not be present to the same extent in connection with a business transaction with us. Furthermore, once a proposed business transaction is approved by our Board of Directors and the transaction is consummated, the target business will have effectively become public, whereas an initial public offering is always subject to the underwriters’ ability to complete the offering, as well as general market conditions that could prevent the offering from occurring. Once public, we believe the target business would have greater access to capital and additional means of creating management incentives that are better aligned with shareholders’ interests than it would as a private company. It can offer further benefits by augmenting a company’s profile among potential new customers and vendors and aid in attracting talented employees. Financial Flexibility We are able to consummate a business transaction using our authorized shares, debt or a combination of the foregoing, we have the flexibility to use an efficient structure allowing us to tailor the consideration to be paid to the target business to address the needs of the parties. However, if our business transaction requires us to use cash to pay the purchase price, we may need to arrange third party financing to help fund our business transaction. Competition In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business for an initial business transaction, we may encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours including other blank check/shell companies, private equity groups and leveraged buyout funds, and operating businesses seeking strategic acquisitions. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business transactions directly or through affiliates. Moreover, many of these competitors possess greater financial, technical, human and other resources than us. Our ability to acquire larger target businesses will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target business.  Either of these factors may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating an initial business transaction.   3   Employees We currently have four executive officers.  These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to our matters and intend to devote only as much time as they deem necessary to our affairs. The amount of time they will devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for the initial business transaction and the stage of the initial business transaction process the company is in. Accordingly, once management locates a suitable target business to acquire, they will spend more time investigating such target business and negotiating and processing the initial business transaction (and consequently spend more time on our affairs) than they would prior to locating a suitable target business. We expect our executive officers to devote a reasonable amount of time to our business.  We do not intend to have any full time paid employees prior to the consummation of our initial business transaction. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders Following the completion of the Distribution, the Company’s Board of Directors determined it to be in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders to (i) continue its corporate existence, rather than dissolve the Company as contemplated by the IPO prospectus and (ii) retain the Company’s current management while the Company continues to seek acquisition targets or other uses for the Company. To accomplish these goals, on December 21, 2012, the Company held a special meeting of shareholders to approve an amendment to the Company’s Eighth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to eliminate the blank check company provisions which restrict the Company’s ability to pursue the acquisition of one or more operating companies and related financings after the Distribution of the Trust Account to the holders of the Company’s Ordinary Shares sold in the IPO by deleting Article 24 of its Charter in its entirety. The Board of Directors fixed the close of business on December 7, 2012 as the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Special Meeting and any adjournment thereof. At the special meeting, greater than the requisite seventy-five percent (75%) majority of those shareholders in attendance at the meeting and voting by person or by proxy voted in favor of the Amendment Proposal.  2,262,672 votes were cast “For”, representing 78.9% of the Company’s aggregate ordinary shares outstanding, and 0 votes were cast “Against” the Amendment Proposal. The Company filed its Ninth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with the Registrar of Corporate Affairs of the British Virgin Islands (the “Registrar”) to become effective as of December 21, 2012. Item 1A. Risk Factors Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that are not strictly historical in nature and are forward-looking statements. These statements may include, but are not limited to, statements about the timing of a potential business transaction; our financial strength, our business strategy; and our estimates for future performance, anticipated operating losses, future revenues, capital requirements, and our needs for additional financing. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “goal,” or other variations of these terms (including their use in the negative) or by discussions of strategies, plans or intentions. These statements are only predictions based on current information and expectations and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The underlying information and expectations are likely to change over time. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: Risks Related to Our Business We are a shell company with no operating history and, accordingly, you will not have any basis on which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective. We are a shell company incorporated on June 25, 2010 with no operating results to date. Since we do not have any operations or an operating history, you will have no basis upon which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective, the focus of which is to acquire through a merger, share capital exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, exchangeable share transaction or other similar business transaction, one or more operating businesses or assets that we have not yet identified. We have no present revenue and will not generate any revenues or income until, at the earliest, after the consummation of a business transaction. We do not know when or if a business transaction will occur. The report of our independent registered public accountants on our financial  4   statements includes an explanatory paragraph stating that our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the consummation of the business combination or raising substantial additional funds. Our officers and directors currently have no obligation to present us with business transaction opportunities, which may have the effect of decreasing the number and, potentially, the quality of potential business targets we evaluate. On October 24, 2012, FlatWorld and Rodman & Renshaw, LLC (“Rodman”) (i) terminated the Underwriting Agreement with the exception of certain indemnification provisions and (ii) provided Rodman & Renshaw’s consent to terminate the various insider letters between the insiders (the “Insiders”) and the Company (the “Insider Letters”) and the FWAC Letter Agreement. Among other things, these letter agreements required our officers and directors to present to us for our consideration, prior to presentation to any other entity, any potential transaction opportunities which may reasonably be required to be presented to us under British Virgin Islands law, taking into account any other fiduciary obligations they might have. Because our officers and directors currently have no obligation to present us with such business transaction opportunities, the number and, potentially, the quality of potential business targets we will have the opportunity to evaluate could be impaired. Additionally, we cannot guarantee that conflicts of interest may not arise from the multiple corporate affiliations of our sponsor, officers and directors. We do not intend to establish an audit committee or a compensation committee until the consummation of a business transaction. Our board of directors intends to establish an audit committee and a compensation committee upon the consummation of a business transaction. At that time our board of directors intends to adopt charters for these committees. Prior to such time we do not intend to establish either one. Accordingly, there will not be a separate committee comprised of some members of our board of directors with specialized accounting and financial knowledge to meet, analyze and discuss solely financial matters concerning prospective target businesses nor will there be a separate committee to review the reasonableness of expense reimbursement requests by anyone other than our board of directors, which includes persons who may seek such reimbursements. If we are deemed to be an investment company under the United States Investment Company Act, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult for us to complete a business transaction. If we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, our activities may be restricted, including: ·restrictions on the nature of our investments; and·restrictions on the issuance of securities, each of which may make it difficult for us to complete a business transaction. In addition, we may have imposed upon us burdensome requirements, including: ·registration as an investment company;·adoption of a specific form of corporate structure; and·reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy and disclosure requirements and other rules and regulations. In order not to be regulated as an investment company under the Investment Company Act, unless we can qualify for an exclusion, we must ensure that we are engaged primarily in a business other than investing, reinvesting or trading of securities and that our activities do not include investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading "investment securities" constituting more than 40% of our assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. Our business will be to identify and consummate a business transaction and thereafter to operate the acquired business or assets for the long term. We do not plan to buy businesses or assets with a view to resale or profit from their resale. We do not plan to buy unrelated businesses or assets or to be a passive investor. We do not believe that our anticipated principal activities will subject us to the Investment Company Act. By restricting the investment of cash to these instruments, and by having a business plan targeted at acquiring, growing and businesses for the long term (rather than on buying and selling businesses in the manner of a merchant bank or private equity fund), we intend to avoid being deemed an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.  If we were deemed to be subject to the Investment Company Act,  5   compliance with these additional regulatory burdens would require additional expense for which we have not accounted. In certain circumstances, our board of directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to our creditors, thereby exposing itself and our company to claims of punitive damages. If we are forced to enter into insolvent liquidation or a petition for winding up is filed against us which is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or insolvency laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.”  As a result, a court could seek to recover all amounts received by our shareholders.  Furthermore, because we have distributed the proceeds held in the trust account to our public shareholders, this may be viewed or interpreted as giving preference to our public shareholders over any potential creditors with respect to access to or distributions from our assets.  Furthermore, our board of directors may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to our creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and our company to claims of punitive damages, by paying public shareholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors.  We cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against us for these reasons. We are not required to consider a target’s valuation when entering into or consummating our business transaction.  Our officers’,  directors’ and advisors’ unrestricted flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective acquisition candidate, along with management’s financial interest in consummating an initial business transaction, may lead management to enter into an acquisition agreement that is not in the best interest of the our shareholders. We will have virtually unrestricted flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective acquisition candidate. Investors will be relying on our management’s ability to identify business transactions, evaluate their merits, conduct or monitor diligence and conduct negotiations.  Management’s unrestricted flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective acquisition candidate, along with management’s financial interest in consummating an initial business transaction, may lead management to enter into an acquisition agreement that is not in the best interest of our shareholders. We may not obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm as to the fair market enterprise value of the target business or that the price we are paying for the business is fair to our shareholders. We are not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that either the target business we select has a certain fair market enterprise value at the time of our signing a definitive agreement in connection with our initial business transaction or that the price we are paying is fair to our shareholders. The fair market enterprise value of such business will be determined by our board of directors based upon standards generally accepted by the financial community, such as actual and potential sales, earnings and cash flow and book value, and the price for which comparable businesses have recently been sold. If no opinion is obtained, our shareholders will be relying on the judgment of our board of directors. We may issue additional ordinary shares to complete our initial business transaction which would reduce the equity interest of our shareholders and likely cause a change in control of our ownership. Our ninth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association authorizes the issuance of an unlimited number of ordinary shares, no par value per share, and 5,000,000 preferred shares of no par value per share. There are unlimited numbers of authorized but unissued ordinary shares available for issuance and 5,000,000 preferred shares all of which will be available for issuance. Although we have no commitment as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we may issue a substantial number of additional ordinary or preferred shares, or a combination of ordinary and preferred shares, to complete a business transaction. The issuance of additional ordinary shares or any number of preferred shares: ·may significantly reduce the equity interest of investors in the offering;·may subordinate the rights of holders of ordinary shares if preferred shares are issued with rights senior to those afforded to the holders of our ordinary shares;·may cause a change in control if a substantial number of our ordinary shares are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and may result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors; and  6     ·may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our ordinary shares. Substantial resources could be expended in researching initial business transactions that are not consummated, which could materially adversely affect subsequent attempts to locate and consummate an initial business transaction. We anticipate the investigation of each specific target business and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention and substantial costs for accountants, attorneys and other third party fees and expenses. If we decide not to enter into an agreement with respect to a specific proposed initial business transaction we have investigated, the costs incurred up to that point for the proposed transaction likely would not be recoverable. Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached relating to a specific target business, we may fail to consummate the business transaction for any number of reasons including those beyond our control. Any such event will result in a loss to us of the related costs incurred which could materially adversely affect subsequent attempts to locate and consummate a business transaction. Our ability to successfully effect a business transaction and to be successful thereafter will be dependent in large part upon the background, experience and effort of our key personnel, including our officers and directors. Our ability to successfully effect a business transaction is dependent upon the background, experience and effort of our key personnel. Our key personnel will also be officers, directors, key personnel and/or members of other entities, to whom we anticipate we will have access on an as needed basis, although such personnel may not be able to devote sufficient time, effort or attention to us when we need it.  None of our key personnel, including our executive officers, will have entered into employment or consultant agreements with us. Our officers and directors may allocate their time to other businesses, thereby causing conflicts of interest in their determination as to how much time to devote to our affairs. These conflicts could impair our ability to consummate a business transaction. Our officers and directors are not required to commit their full time to our affairs, which may result in a conflict of interest in allocating their time between our operations and other businesses. We do not intend to have any full time employees prior to the consummation of a business transaction. Certain of our executive officers are engaged in several other business endeavors and are not obligated to contribute any specific number of hours per week to our affairs. If our executive officers’ other business affairs require them to devote more substantial amounts of time to such affairs, it could limit their ability to devote time to our affairs and could impair our ability to consummate a business transaction. These conflicts may not be resolved in our favor. Our officers, directors, advisors and their respective affiliates currently are, and may in the future become, affiliated with entities engaged in business activities that are similar to those intended to be conducted by us and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. Certain of our officers, directors, advisors and their respective affiliates have been principals of, or affiliated or associated with, other blank check companies, and/or may in the future become, affiliated with additional entities engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by us. Due to these existing affiliations, our officers and directors may have fiduciary obligations to present potential business opportunities to those entities prior to presenting them to us, which could cause additional conflicts of interest. Accordingly, they may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. These conflicts may not be resolved in our favor. Our management may negotiate fees, employment, consulting or similar types of agreements with a target business in connection with a particular business transaction. These agreements may provide for them to receive compensation following a business transaction and, as a result, may cause them to have conflicts of interest in determining whether a particular business transaction is in the best interest of our public shareholders. Our management may not be able to remain with the company after the consummation of a business transaction unless they are able to negotiate employment or consulting agreements in connection with a business transaction. If, as a condition to a potential initial business transaction, our existing officers negotiate to be retained after the consummation of the business transaction, or to be paid fees, such negotiations may result in a conflict of interest. Such negotiations would take place simultaneously with the negotiation of the business transaction and could provide for such individuals to receive compensation in the form of cash payments and/or our securities for services  7   they would render to us after the consummation of the business transaction. While the personal and financial interests of such individuals may influence their motivation in identifying and selecting a target business, the ability of such individuals to remain with us after the consummation of a business transaction will not be the determining factor in our decision as to whether or not we will proceed with any potential business transaction. In making the determination as to whether current management should remain with us following the business transaction, we will analyze the experience and skill set of the target business’s management and negotiate as part of the business transaction that our existing officers and directors remain if it is believed to be in the best interests of the combined company after the consummation of the business transaction. We will only have a limited ability to evaluate the management of the target business. We intend to closely scrutinize the management of the target business; however, our assessment of these individuals may not prove to be correct. These individuals may be unfamiliar with the requirements of operating a public company which could cause us to have to expend time and resources helping them become familiar with such requirements. This could be expensive and time-consuming and could lead to various operational issues which may adversely affect our operations. We may engage in a business transaction with one or more target businesses that have relationships or are affiliated with our sponsor, directors or officers, which may raise potential conflicts. We may engage in a business transaction with one or more target businesses that have relationships or are affiliated (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) with our sponsor, directors or officers, which may raise potential conflicts. Also, the completion of a business transaction between us and an entity owned by a business in which one of our directors or officers may have an interest could enhance their prospects for future business from such client. We will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic area and may acquire a business operating in an industry that is beyond the expertise of our management. Our efforts in identifying a prospective target business will not be limited to any particular industry or geographic area, although we initially intend to focus our efforts on acquiring a target business having its primary operations in the United States.  Our management will not rule out pursuing attractive business opportunities in any geographic location or industry, even if such location or industry is outside our areas of expertise, if our management determines that such business transaction is in the best interests of our company and shareholders. Should a favorable business opportunity present itself in an industry or area that is outside of our management’s expertise, our ability to assess the growth potential, financial condition, experience and skill of incumbent management, competitive position, regulatory environment and other criteria in evaluating such a business opportunity may be adversely affected. If we determine to acquire a prospective target business which is outside of the expertise of our management, no assurance can be given that we will be able to complete such an acquisition. Our officers, directors, security holders and their respective affiliates may have competitive pecuniary interests that conflict with our interests. We have not adopted a policy that expressly prohibits our directors, officers, securityholders or affiliates from having a direct or indirect pecuniary interest in any investment to be acquired or disposed of by us or in any transaction to which we are a party or have an interest. Nor do we have a policy that expressly prohibits any such persons from engaging for their own account in business activities of the types conducted by us. Accordingly, such persons or entities may have a conflict between their interests and ours. We may not be able to maintain control of a target business after our initial business transaction. We may structure a business transaction to acquire less than 100% of the equity interests or assets of a target business, but will seek to acquire no less than a controlling interest. We will seek to acquire a controlling interest either through the acquisition of at least 50.1% of the voting equity interests in the target or through the acquisition of a significant voting equity interest that enables us to exercise a greater degree of control over the target than any other person or group. However, other minority shareholders may subsequently combine their holdings resulting in a single person or group obtaining a larger share of the company’s issued shares than we initially acquired. Accordingly, this may make it more likely that we will not be able to maintain our control of the target business.   8   In order to effectuate a business transaction, blank check/shell companies have, in the recent past, amended various provisions of their charters and modified governing instruments.  We cannot assure you that we will not seek to amend our memorandum and articles of association or governing instruments in order to effectuate our initial business transaction. In order to effectuate a business transaction, blank check/shell companies have, in the recent past, amended various provisions of their constitutional documents and modified governing instruments.  For example, blank check/shell companies have amended the definition of business transaction, increased redemption thresholds and changed industry focus.  We cannot assure you that we will not seek to amend our memorandum and articles of association in order to effectuate our initial business transaction. Unlike most other blank check/shell companies, the provisions of our ninth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may be amended with the approval of a majority of our shareholders. Most blank check/shell companies have a provision in their constitutional documents which prohibits the amendment of certain of its provisions, including those which relate to a company’s pre-business transaction activity, without approval by a certain percentage of the company’s shareholders.  Typically, amendment of these provisions requires approval by between 90% and 100% of the company’s public shareholders.  Our ninth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that any of its provisions, including those related to pre-business transaction activity, may be amended if approved by a majority of our shareholders.  As a result, we may be able to amend the provisions of our ninth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association more easily that other blank check companies and this may increase our ability to consummate a business transaction with which you do not agree. We may issue notes or other debt securities, or otherwise incur substantial debt, to complete a business transaction, which may adversely affect our leverage and financial condition. Although we have no commitments as of the date of the prospectus to issue any notes or other debt securities, or to otherwise incur outstanding debt, we may choose to incur substantial debt to complete a business transaction. The incurrence of debt could result in: ·default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating cash flow after a business transaction is insufficient to pay our debt obligations; ·acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest payments when due if the debt security contains covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves and any such covenant is breached without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant; ·our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand; covenants that limit our ability to acquire capital assets or make additional acquisitions; ·our inability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain additional financing while such security is outstanding; ·our inability to pay dividends on our ordinary shares; ·using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our ordinary shares if declared, expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes; ·limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate; ·increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and ·limitationson our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.   9   Our sponsor controls a substantial interest in us and thus may influence certain actions requiring a shareholder vote. Our sponsor owns 20% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares. This ownership interest, together with any other acquisitions of our ordinary shares, could allow our sponsor to influence the outcome of matters requiring shareholder approval, including the business transaction and election of directors.  Unlike other blank check/shell companies, our sponsor has no requirement to vote with the majority of the public shareholders which are entitled to vote and, therefore, may have a significant influence on the approval of an initial business transaction, which may not be in your best interest. Additionally, our board of directors is divided into two classes, each of which will generally serve for a term of two years with only one class of directors being elected in each year.  It is unlikely that there will be an annual meeting of shareholders to re-elect existing directors or elect new directors prior to the consummation of a business transaction, in which case all of the current directors will continue in office until at least the consummation of the business transaction. If there is an annual meeting, as a consequence of our “staggered” board of directors, only a minority of the board of directors will be considered for election and our sponsor, because of its ownership position, will have considerable influence regarding the outcome of an election of directors. The interests of our sponsor and your interests may not always align and taking actions which require approval of a majority of our shareholders which are entitled to vote, such as selling the company, may be more difficult to accomplish. We may be unable to obtain additional financing, if required, to complete a business transaction or to fund the operations and growth of the target business, which could compel us to restructure the transaction or abandon a particular business transaction. As of December 31, 2015, we had cash of $41 and therefore have little capacity to offer cash consideration as part of a business transaction.   If a business transaction requires cash, we will be required to seek financing. Such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. To the extent that additional financing proves to be unavailable when needed to consummate a particular business transaction, we would be compelled to either restructure the transaction or abandon that particular business transaction and seek an alternative target business candidate. None of our officers, directors or shareholders are required to provide any financing to us in connection with or after a business transaction. As a shell company we are subject to certain special rules under the federal securities laws which may limit our ability to raise additional financing to fund our operations. We are a “shell company” under the federal securities laws. A “shell company” is a public reporting company that has no or nominal assets (other than cash), and no or nominal operations. Shell companies are subject to certain special rules under the federal securities laws, including: (i) specific disclosure requirements on Form 8-K (or its equivalent for foreign issuers) upon the consummation of a transaction that effects a change in control or changes the shell company into a non-shell company; (ii) limitations in the use of certain short-form registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) while a shell company, including Form S-8 registration statements used in connection with employee benefit plans; (iii) ineligibility for certain streamlined procedures and publicity rules in connection with public offerings while a shell company and for a period of three years thereafter; and (iv) unavailability of the resale provisions of Rule 144 of the Securities Act until one year following the Form 8-K disclosure described above. Compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could require substantial financial and management resources and may increase the time and costs of completing an acquisition. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we evaluate and report on our system of internal controls.  As a company with a market capitalization less than $75 million, per Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (added as part of the Dodd-Frank Act), we will be permanently exempt from the requirement that we have such system of internal controls audited.  If no further action is taken by Congress or the SEC, at such time as we exceed a market capitalization of $75 million, we will be required to comply with such audit requirement.  Further, if we generally fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny, civil or criminal penalties and/or shareholder litigation and any inability to provide reliable financial reports could harm our business. Regardless of value and sophistication (if privately held) or market capitalization (if public), there can be no assurances a target company will be in compliance with all such applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act  10   regarding adequacy of their internal controls. The development of the internal controls of any such entity to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may increase the time and costs necessary to complete any such acquisition. Furthermore, any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in the implementation of adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our securities. Because any target business with which we attempt to complete a business transaction may be required to provide our shareholders with financial statements prepared in accordance with and reconciled to United States generally accepted accounting principles, or International Financial Reporting Standards, prospective target businesses may be limited. In accordance with requirements of United States federal securities laws, in order to consummate a business transaction, a proposed target business may be required to have certain financial statements which are prepared in accordance with, or which can be reconciled to, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, or International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, or International GAAP, and audited in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), or PCAOB.  Thus, to the extent that a proposed target business does not have financial statements which have been prepared with, or which can be reconciled to, GAAP, or International GAAP, and audited in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, we may not be able to complete a business transaction with that proposed target business. These financial statement requirements may limit the pool of potential target businesses with which we may complete a business transaction.  Furthermore, to the extent that we seek to acquire a target business that does not have financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, or International GAAP, it could make it more difficult for our management to analyze such target business. We do not currently intend to hold an annual meeting of shareholders until after our consummation of a business transaction. We do not currently intend to hold an annual meeting of shareholders until after we consummate our initial business transaction. Therefore, if our shareholders want us to hold a meeting prior to such consummation, they may requisition the directors to hold one upon the written request of members entitled to exercise at least 30 percent of the voting rights in respect of the matter for which the meeting is requested. Under British Virgin Islands law, we may not increase the required percentage to call a meeting above 30 percent. The grant of registration rights to our sponsor may make it more difficult to complete our initial business transaction, and the future exercise of such rights may adversely affect the market price of our ordinary shares. Pursuant to a registration rights agreement, our sponsor and its permitted transferees can demand that we register the initial shares. We will bear the cost of registering these securities. If our sponsor exercises its registration rights in full, there will be an additional 573,875 ordinary shares. The registration and availability of such a significant number of securities for trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of our ordinary shares. In addition, the existence of the registration rights may make our initial business transaction more costly or difficult to conclude. This is because the shareholders of the target business may increase the equity stake they seek in the combined entity or ask for more cash consideration to offset the negative impact on the market price of our ordinary shares that is expected when the securities owned by our sponsor are registered. Because of our limited resources and the significant competition for business transaction opportunities, it may be more difficult for us to complete a business transaction. We expect to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including private investors (which may be individuals or investment partnerships), other blank check/shell companies and other entities, domestic and international, competing for the type of businesses we intend to acquire. Many of these individuals and entities are well established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting, directly or indirectly, acquisitions of companies operating in or providing services to various industries. Many of these competitors possess greater technical, human and other resources, or more local industry knowledge, than we do and our financial resources will be relatively limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. While we believe there are numerous target businesses we could potentially acquire with the net  11   proceeds of the offering, our ability to compete with respect to the acquisition of certain target businesses that are sizable will be limited by our available financial resources. This inherent competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target businesses. Our securities are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, which may limit the liquidity and price of our securities more than if our securities were quoted or listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another national exchange. Our ordinary shares are traded in the over-the-counter market and are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, a FINRA-sponsored and operated inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities not included in the Nasdaq Stock Market, which we refer to as NASDAQ. Quotation of our securities on the OTC Bulletin Board may limit the liquidity and price of our securities more than if our securities were quoted or listed on Nasdaq or a national exchange. Lack of liquidity may limit the price at which you may be able to sell our securities or your ability to sell our securities at all. We will be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board for the immediate future. We currently do not meet the eligibility requirements for listing on NASDAQ. Until we meet those standards and are accepted into NASDAQ, or unless we are successful in securing a listing on the NYSE MKT (formerly the American Stock Exchange) or some other exchange, our ordinary shares will be quoted only on the OTC Bulletin Board. Such a listing is considered less prestigious than a NASDAQ or an exchange listing, and many brokerage firms will not recommend Bulletin Board stocks to their clients. This situation may limit the liquidity of your shares. Our ordinary shares are subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules, brokerdealers may experience difficulty in completing customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected. Our ordinary shares are subject to the “penny stock” rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, brokerdealers may find it difficult to effectuate customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected.  As a result, the market price of our securities may be depressed, and you may find it more difficult to sell our securities. Since we currently have net tangible assets of less than $5,000,000 and our ordinary shares have a market price per share of less than $5.00, transactions in our ordinary shares are subject to these “penny stock” rules.  Under these rules, brokerdealers who recommend such securities to persons other than institutional accredited investors must: ·make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser; ·receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to sale; ·provide the purchaser with risk disclosure documents which identify certain risks associated with investing in “penny stocks” and which describe the market for these “penny stocks” as well as a purchaser’s legal remedies; ·obtain a signed and dated acknowledgment from the purchaser demonstrating that the purchaser has actually received the required risk disclosure document before a transaction in a “penny stock” can be completed; and ·cancelthe purchase transaction in violation of the “penny stock” rules and return the investor’s money. We may qualify as a passive foreign investment company, or “PFIC,” which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. investors. In general, we will be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year in which either (1) at least 75% of our gross income (looking through certain 25% or more-owned corporate subsidiaries) is passive income or (2) at least 50% of the average value of our assets (looking through certain 25% or more-owned corporate subsidiaries) is attributable to assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income. Passive income generally includes, without limitation, dividends, interest, rents, royalties, and gains from the disposition of passive assets. If we are determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder of our ordinary shares or warrants, the U.S. Holder may be subject to increased U.S. federal income tax liability and may be subject to additional reporting requirements.   We intend to elect a fiscal year ending on June 30 of each year as our taxable year for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  Our actual PFIC status for our taxable year ending June 30, 2011 may depend on whether we qualify for the PFIC start-up exception.  We likely will be a PFIC for our taxable year ending June 30, 2011 unless we complete a business transaction in our taxable year ending June 30, 2012 and  12   are not treated as a PFIC for either of our taxable years ending June 30, 2012 or June 30, 2013. Our actual PFIC status for any taxable year, however, will not be determinable until after the end of such taxable year. Accordingly, there can be no assurance with respect to our status as a PFIC for our current taxable year or any subsequent taxable year. We urge U.S. investors to consult their own tax advisors regarding the possible application of the PFIC rules. International and political events could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. We may enter into an initial business transaction with a non-U.S. entity and, accordingly, a significant portion of our post business transaction revenue may be derived from non-U.S. operations, which exposes us to risks inherent in doing business in each of the countries in which we transact business. The occurrence of any of the risks described below could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Operations in countries other than the U.S. are subject to various risks peculiar to each country. With respect to any particular country, these risks may include: ·expropriation and nationalization of our assets in that country; ·political and economic instability; ·civil unrest, acts of terrorism, force majeure, war, or other armed conflict; ·natural disasters, including those related to earthquakes and flooding; ·inflation; ·currency fluctuations, devaluations, and conversion restrictions; ·confiscatory taxation or other adverse tax policies; ·governmental activities that limit or disrupt markets, restrict payments, or limit the movement of funds; ·governmental activities that may result in the deprivation of contract rights; and ·governmentalactivities that may result in the inability to obtain or retain licenses required for operation. Uninsured claims and litigation could adversely impact our operating results. After a business transaction, we expect to secure insurance coverage against operating hazards.  However, we may not be able to procure insurance for the particular risks associated with our target business on favorable economic terms if at all, and the nature and amount of that insurance may not be sufficient to fully indemnify us against liabilities arising out of pending and future claims and litigation.  This insurance typically has deductibles or self-insured retentions and contains certain coverage exclusions.  In addition, this insurance typically does not cover damages from breach of contract by us or based on alleged fraud, grossnegligence,misrepresentationor otherdeceptive trade practices.  Insurance and customer agreements do not provide complete protection against losses and risks, and our results of operations could be adversely affected by unexpected claims not covered by insurance. We may re-incorporate in another jurisdiction in connection with a business transaction, and the laws of such jurisdiction will likely govern all of our material agreements and we may not be able to enforce our legal rights. In connection with a business transaction, we may relocate the home jurisdiction of our business from the British Virgin Islands to another jurisdiction.  If we determine to do this, the laws of such jurisdiction would likely govern all of our material agreements.  We cannot assure you that the system of laws and the enforcement of existing laws in such jurisdiction would be as certain in implementation and interpretation as in the United States.  The inability to enforce or obtain a remedy under any of our future agreements could result in a significant loss of business, business opportunities or capital.  Any such reincorporation and the international nature of our business will likely subject us to foreign regulation. You may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. federal courts may be limited, because we are incorporated under British Virgin Islands law. We are a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States.  In addition, certain of our directors and officers are nationals or residents of jurisdictions other than the United States, such as Canada and India, and all or a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States.  As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within  13   the United States upon our directors or executive officers, or enforce judgments obtained in the United States courts against our directors or officers. Our corporate affairs will be governed by our ninth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Act and the common law of the British Virgin Islands.  The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors to us under British Virgin Islands law are to a large extent governed by the Act and the common law of the British Virgin Islands.  The common law of the British Virgin Islands is derived from English common law, and the decisions of the English courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding on a court in the British Virgin Islands.  The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under British Virgin Islands law may not be as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States.  In particular, the British Virgin Islands has a less developed body of securities laws as compared to the United States, and some states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law.  In addition, while statutory provisions do exist in British Virgin Islands law for derivative actions to be brought in certain circumstances, shareholders in British Virgin Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.  The circumstances in which any such action may be brought, and the procedures and defenses that may be available in respect to any such action, may result in the rights of shareholders of a British Virgin Islands company being more limited than those of shareholders of a company organized in the United States.  Accordingly, shareholders may have fewer alternatives available to them if they believe that corporate wrongdoing has occurred. The British Virgin Islands courts are also unlikely: ·to recognize or enforce against us judgments of courts of the United States based on certain civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws; and ·toimpose liabilities against us, in original actions brought in the British Virgin Islands, based on certain civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws that are penal in nature. There is no statutory recognition in the British Virgin Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, although the courts of the British Virgin Islands will in certain circumstances recognize and enforce a non-penal judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits provided that in respect of the U.S. judgment: ·the U.S. court issuing the judgment had jurisdiction in the matter and the company either submitted to such jurisdiction or was resident or carrying on business within such jurisdiction and was duly served with process; ·the judgment given by the U.S. court was not in respect of penalties, taxes, fines or similar fiscal or revenue obligations of the company; ·in obtaining judgment there was no fraud on the part of the person in whose favor judgment was given or on the part of the court; ·recognition or enforcement of the judgment in the British Virgin Islands would not be contrary to public policy; and ·theproceedings pursuant to which judgment was obtained were not contrary to natural justice. As a result of all of the above, public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a U.S. company. Our ninth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association permit the board of directors to create additional classes of securities, including shares with rights, preferences, designations and limitations as they determine which may have an anti-takeover effect. Our ninth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association permits the board of directors to designate rights, preferences, designations and limitations attaching to the preferred shares as they determine in their discretion, without shareholder approval with respect the terms or the issuance. If issued, the rights, preferences, designations and limitations of the preferred shares would be set by the board of directors and could operate to the  14   disadvantage of the outstanding ordinary shares. Such terms could include, among others, preferences as to dividends and distributions on liquidation, or could be used to prevent possible corporate takeovers. Existing shareholders may experience significant dilution from our issuance of shares to repay amounts due to affiliates if such obligations are converted into loans that are convertible into our common stock. If we choose to repay amounts due to our affiliates by issuing convertible debentures, the possible issuance of shares on conversion of such convertible debentures will have a dilutive impact on our shareholders. As a result, our net income per share could decrease in future periods, and the market price of our common stock could decline. In addition, the lower our stock price is, the more shares of common stock we will have to issue as the debentures are converted on the basis of the contemporaneous market price. If our stock price is lower, then our existing shareholders would experience greater dilution. Future sales of shares of our ordinary shares or the issuance of securities senior to our ordinary shares could adversely affect the trading price of our ordinary shares and our ability to raise funds in new equity offerings. We may issue additional ordinary shares, preferred shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for ordinary shares, in the future. Future sales of substantial amounts of our ordinary shares or equity-related securities in the public market or privately, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing trading prices of our ordinary shares and could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of equity or equity-related securities. No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of shares of ordinary shares or the availability of shares of ordinary shares for future sale will have on the trading price of our ordinary shares. There are relatively low barriers to becoming a blank check company or shell company, thereby increasing the competitive market for a small number of business opportunities. There are relatively low barriers to becoming a blank check company or shell company. A newly incorporated company with a single stockholder and sole officer and director may become a blank check company or shell company by voluntarily subjecting itself to the SEC reporting requirements by filing and seeking effectiveness of a Form 10 with the SEC, thereby registering its ordinary shares pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. Assuming no comments to the Form 10 have been received from the SEC, the registration statement is automatically deemed effective 60 days after filing the Form 10 with the SEC. The relative ease and low cost with which a company can become a blank check or shell company can increase the already highly competitive market for a limited number of private businesses that seek to consummate a business combination with a public company. Our stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them. Our stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against a corporation to the extent of distributions received by them in the distribution of the Trust Account.  Because we are a blank check company, the claims that could be made against us are significantly limited and the likelihood that any claim that would result in any liability extending to the trust is minimal. However, our public stockholders could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them in the Trust Account liquidation and any such liability of our stockholders will likely extend beyond the third anniversary of such dissolution. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that third parties will not seek to recover from our public stockholders amounts owed to them by us. We may issue shares of our capital stock or debt securities to complete an acquisition, which would reduce the equity interest of our stockholders and likely cause a change in control of our ownership. Our ninth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association authorizes the issuance of  (i) an unlimited number of ordinary shares of no par value ("Ordinary Shares”), (ii) 1,000,000 Class A preferred shares of no par value each ("Class A Preferred Shares"), (iii) 1,000,000 Class B preferred shares of no par value each ("Class B Preferred Shares"), (iv)1,000,000 Class C preferred shares of no par value each ("Class C Preferred Shares"), (v) 1,000,000 Class D preferred shares of no par value each ("Class D Preferred Shares") and (vi) 1,000,000 Class E preferred shares of no par value each ("Class E Preferred Shares"), Class A – E Preferred shares together being “Preferred Shares”.  As of December 31, 2015, we had outstanding 2,869,375 Ordinary Shares, and no Preferred Shares issued and outstanding.  The issuance of additional ordinary shares or Class A preferred shares or any number of shares of our preferred shares: ·may significantly reduce the equity interest of our stockholders;  15    ·will likely cause a change in control if a substantial number of our ordinary shares are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and most likely also result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors; and ·mayadversely affect prevailing market prices for our ordinary shares. Additionally, if we finance the purchase of assets or operations through the issuance of debt securities, it could result in ·default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an acquisition were insufficient to pay our debt obligations; ·acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest payments when due if the debt security contained covenants that required the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves and any such covenant were breached without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant; ·our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security was payable on demand; and ·ourinability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contained covenants restricting our ability to obtain additional financing while such security was outstanding. We may have insufficient resources to cover our operating expenses and the expenses of consummating an acquisition. Following the distribution of the Trust Account, we are in need of additional financing to fund our operating expenses.  If we do not have sufficient funds available to fund our expenses, we may be forced to obtain additional financing, either from our management or the existing stockholders or from third parties. We may not be able to obtain additional financing and our existing stockholders and management are not obligated to provide any additional financing. If we do not have sufficient proceeds and cannot find additional financing, we may be forced to dissolve and liquidate prior to consummating a business combination. Our external auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their audit report raising substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern due to the Company’s history of losses, working capital deficiency and cash position. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had $41 in cash, and current liabilities exceeded current assets by about $422,111. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains and explanatory paragraph which has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain future financing An acquisition of an operating company may not require the approval of our shareholders, so you may not be entitled to vote on such a business combination. In the event the Company enters into a definitive agreement to acquire an operating company, the acquisition may not require stockholder approval, even if it constitutes a change in control of the Company, provided the Company’s ordinary shares is not then listed on a national exchange and the acquisition is structured so as not to require a stockholder vote.  Accordingly, shareholders may not be entitled to vote on any future acquisition by, or of, the Company. There has been a very limited public trading market for our securities, and the market for our securities may continue to be limited and may be sporadic and highly volatile. Prior to September 9, 2012, there was a limited public market for our ordinary shares, which was quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”).  Following the liquidation of our Trust Account, there has been limited public trading in the ordinary shares.  We cannot assure you that an active market for our ordinary shares will be established or maintained in the future.  If we are unable to establish a public market for our ordinary shares,  16   holders will have no or limited liquidity.  Holders of our ordinary shares may have to bear a complete loss of the value of their investment in us. If we are able to establish a public market, the market price of our ordinary shares may be volatile, which could cause the value of our ordinary shares to decline.  Securities markets experience significant price and volume fluctuations.  This market volatility, as well as general economic conditions, could cause the market price of our ordinary shares to fluctuate substantially.  Many factors beyond our control may significantly affect the market price of our shares. These factors include: ·price and volume fluctuations in the stock markets; ·changes in our earnings or variations in operating results; ·any shortfall in revenue or increase in losses from levels expected by securities analysts; ·changes in regulatory policies or law; ·operating performance of companies comparable to us; and ·generaleconomic trends and other external factors. Even if an active market for our ordinary shares is established, stockholders may have to sell their shares at prices substantially lower than the price they paid for the shares or might otherwise receive than if an active public market existed. Risks Associated with the Business Services Industry While we may consummate a business transaction with a target in any industry, one of the sectors on which we will initially focus is the global business services sector.  If we are successful in completing a business transaction with a target business in the business services sector, we will be subject to, and possibly adversely affected by, the following risks: There is intense competition in the market for outsourcing services. We believe that the principal competitive factors in business services markets are price, service quality, sales and marketing skills, and industry expertise. Certain factors may affect the competitive landscape in the outsourcing industry, including divestitures and acquisitions that result in consolidation within the industry. In addition, we may face competition from a client’s or potential client’s own in-house employees. We will also face competition from onshore and offshore business process outsourcing and information technology services companies. In addition, the trend toward offshore outsourcing, international expansion by foreign and domestic competitors and continuing technological changes will result in new and different competitors entering the outsourcing market. These competitors may include entrants from the communications, software and data networking industries or entrants in geographic locations with lower costs than those in which we intend to operate. Some of these competitors will have greater financial, human and other resources, longer operating histories, greater technological expertise, more recognizable brand names and more established relationships. In addition, some of our potential competitors may enter into strategic or commercial relationships among themselves or with larger, more established companies in order to increase their ability to address client needs, or enter into similar arrangements with potential clients. Increased competition, our inability to compete successfully against competitors, or pricing pressures could harm our business. Our business may not develop in ways that we currently anticipate due to negative public reaction to offshore outsourcing. Upon a business transaction with a target in the business services industry, our strategy may be based on certain assumptions regarding our industry. The trend to outsource business services, however, may not continue and could reverse. In particular, offshore outsourcing is a politically sensitive topic in the United States, Europe and elsewhere. For example, many organizations and public figures in the United States and the U.K. have publicly expressed concern about a perceived association between offshore outsourcing providers and the loss of jobs in their home countries. Wage pressures in our proposed offshore destinations may prevent target businesses from sustaining a competitive advantage and may reduce their profit margins. Wage costs in offshore locations such as India, China, Malaysia and the Philippines have historically been significantly lower than wage costs in the United States for comparably skilled professionals, which we expect will  17   be one of the competitive strengths of offshoring the business services operations of a target business. However, if, following a business transaction, wages for skilled professionals increase in the country in which we have established a business services facility, we may not be able to sustain this competitive advantage, which could negatively affect profit margins. Business service providers often encounter long sales and implementation cycles and require significant resource commitments by us and potential clients, which they may be unwilling or unable to make. Providing business services will involve significant resource commitments by a company and its potential clients. Potential clients may require that we expend substantial time and money educating them as to the value of our services and assessing the feasibility of integrating our systems and processes with theirs. Decisions relating to engaging business service providers generally involve the evaluation of the service by our clients’ senior management and a significant number of client personnel in various functional areas, each having specific and often conflicting requirements. We may expend significant funds and management resources during the sales cycle and ultimately the potential client may not engage our services. Our sales cycle for all of our services may be subject to significant risks and delays over which we have little or no control, including: ·potential clients’ alternatives to our services, including their willingness to replace their internal solutions or existing vendors; ·potential clients’ budgetary constraints, and the timing of our clients’ budget cycles and approval process; ·potential clients’ willingness to expend the time and resources necessary to integrate their systems with our systems and network; and ·thetiming and expiration of potential clients’ current outsourcing agreements for similar services. If we are unsuccessful in closing sales after expending significant funds and management resources, or if we experience delays in the sales cycle, it could have a negative impact on our revenues and margins. The sales and implementation process occupies important personnel resources that could otherwise be assisting other new clients. Moreover, after being engaged by a client after the sales process, it frequently takes an additional period of time to integrate the client’s systems with ours, and to thereafter ramp-up our services to the client’s requirements. Unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential client and customer data, whether through breach of our computer systems or otherwise, could expose us to protracted and costly litigation and cause us to lose clients. Business service providers sometimes are required to collect and store sensitive data in connection with their services, including names, addresses, social security numbers, credit card account numbers, checking and savings account numbers and payment history records, such as account closures and returned checks. If any person, including any of our employees, penetrates our network security or otherwise misappropriates any sensitive data that we may have, we could be subject to liability for breaching contractual confidentiality provisions or privacy laws. Penetration of the network security of our data centers could have a negative impact on our reputation and could lead our present and potential clients to choose other service providers. Our revenues may be highly dependent on a limited number of major clients and any loss of business from a target business’s major clients would reduce our revenues and growth. Some business services companies derive a substantial portion of their revenues from a limited number of customers. Post business transaction, if we fail to renew or extend contracts with major clients, or if these contracts are terminated for cause or convenience, these clients will have no further obligation to purchase services from us. The loss of, or any significant decline in business from, one or more major clients could lead to a significant decline in revenues and operating margins, particularly if we are unable to make corresponding reductions in our expenses in the event of any such loss or decline. We may not be able to retain a target business’ major clients following a business transaction if we were to lose any of a target business’ major clients, we may not be able to timely replace the revenue generated by the lost clients. In addition, the revenue we generate from major clients may decline or grow at a slower rate in future periods than it has in the past. If we lose any major clients, or if they reduce the volume of services contracted from us, we may suffer from the costs of underutilized capacity because of our inability to eliminate all of the costs associated with conducting business with them, which could exacerbate the harm that any such loss or reduction would have on our operating results and financial condition.  18   Our clients may adopt technologies that decrease the demand for our services, which could reduce our revenues and threaten our ability to compete. Our business will likely depend on our customers continued need for our services, especially major clients who generate the substantial majority of our revenues. However, over time, clients may adopt new technologies that streamline or automate business processes. The adoption of such technologies could reduce the demand for our services, pressure our pricing, cause a reduction in our revenues and threaten our ability to compete. Post business transaction, we may fail to attract and retain enough sufficiently trained employees to support our operations, as competition for highly skilled personnel is intense and we experience significant employee attrition. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The business services outsourcing industry relies on large numbers of skilled employees, and, following a business transaction, our success will depend to a significant extent on our ability to attract, hire, train and retain qualified employees. The business services outsourcing industry experiences high employee attrition.  Following a business transaction, increased competition for these professionals, in the business services outsourcing industry or otherwise, could have an adverse effect on us. A significant increase in the attrition rate among employees with specialized skills could decrease our operating efficiency and productivity and could lead to a decline in demand for the services we intend to provide. In addition, our ability to maintain and renew then-existing engagements and obtain new businesses will depend, in large part, on our ability to attract, train and retain personnel with skills that enable us to keep pace with growing demands for outsourcing, evolving industry standards and changing client preferences. Our failure either to attract, train and retain personnel with the qualifications necessary to fulfill the needs of our future clients or to assimilate new employees successfully could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Our operations may suffer from telecommunications or technology failure, disruptions or increased costs. Our businesses may be highly dependent on our computer and telecommunications equipment and software systems. They may need to record and process significant amounts of data quickly and accurately to access, maintain and expand the databases used for the provision of business services. We may also be dependent on the continuous availability of voice and electronic communication with customers.  If we experience an interruption of our telecommunications network as a result of errors by technology suppliers, clients or third parties, or electronic or physical attacks by persons seeking to disrupt our operations resulting in the temporary or permanent loss of telecommunications equipment and software systems, this would likely impede our ability to provide services to our clients. A significant interruption of service could damage our reputation and, ultimately, result in the loss of clients and revenue. New technologies or processes may be adopted which could reduce a target businesses’ revenues, increase costs and/or threaten their ability to compete. New technologies or processes may be introduced by competitors that streamline or automate business processes in a manner that a target business may not have the resources to replicate. The adoption of such technologies could reduce the demand for target businesses’ services, place pressure on pricing, cause a reduction in their revenues and/or threaten their ability to compete. Risks Associated with Acquiring and Operating a Business in Emerging Market Countries If we effect an initial business transaction with a company located outside of the United States, we would be subject to a variety of additional risks that may negatively impact our operations. If we effect an initial business transaction with a company located outside of the United States, we would be subject to any special considerations or risks associated with companies operating in the target business’ home jurisdiction, including any of the following: ·rules and regulations or currency redemption or corporate withholding taxes on individuals; ·laws governing the manner in which future business transactions may be effected; ·exchange listing and/or delisting requirements; ·tariffs and trade barriers;  19   ·regulations related to customs and import/export matters; ·longer payment cycles; ·tax issues, such as tax law changes and variations in tax laws as compared to the United States; ·currency fluctuations and exchange controls; ·rates of inflation; ·challenges in collecting accounts receivable; ·cultural and language differences; ·employment regulations; ·crime, strikes, riots, civil disturbances, terrorist attacks and wars; and ·deteriorationof political relations with the United States. We cannot assure you that we would be able to adequately address these additional risks.  If we were unable to do so, our operations might suffer. Because of the costs and difficulties inherent in managing cross-border business operations, our results of operations may be negatively impacted. Managing a business, operations, personnel or assets in another country is challenging and costly. Any management that we may have (whether based abroad or in the U.S.) may be inexperienced in cross-border business practices and unaware of significant differences in accounting rules, legal regimes and labor practices. Even with a seasoned and experienced management team, the costs and difficulties inherent in managing cross-border business operations, personnel and assets can be significant (and much higher than in a purely domestic business) and may negatively impact our financial and operational performance. If social unrest, acts of terrorism, regime changes, changes in laws and regulations, political upheaval, or policy changes or enactments occur in a country in which we may operate after we effect a business transaction, it may result in a negative impact on our business. Political events in another country may significantly affect our business, assets or operations. Social unrest, acts of terrorism, regime changes, changes in laws and regulations, political upheaval, and policy changes or enactments could negatively impact our business in a particular country. Because many countries have difficult and unpredictable legal systems and underdeveloped laws and regulations that are unclear and subject to corruption and inexperience, it may adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition. Many countries have difficult and unpredictable legal systems and underdeveloped laws and regulations that are unclear and subject to corruption and inexperience. Our ability to seek and enforce legal protections, including with respect to intellectual property and other property rights, or to defend ourselves with regard to legal actions taken against us in a given country, may be difficult or impossible, which could adversely impact our operations, assets or financial condition. Rules and regulations in many countries are often ambiguous or open to differing interpretation by responsible individuals and agencies at the municipal, state, regional and federal levels. The attitudes and actions of such individuals and agencies are often difficult to predict and inconsistent. Delay with respect to the enforcement of particular rules and regulations, including those relating to customs, tax, environmental and labor, could cause serious disruption to operations abroad and negatively impact our results. If relations between the United States and a foreign government deteriorate, it could cause potential target businesses or their goods and services to become less attractive. The relationship between the United States and foreign governments could be subject to sudden fluctuation and periodic tension. For instance, the United States may announce its intention to impose quotas on certain imports.  20   Such import quotas may adversely affect political relations between the two countries and result in retaliatory countermeasures by the foreign government in industries that may affect our ultimate target business. Changes in political conditions in foreign countries and changes in the state of U.S. relations with such countries are difficult to predict and could adversely affect our operations or cause potential target businesses or their goods and services to become less attractive. Because we are not limited to any specific industry, there is no basis for investors in this offering to evaluate the possible extent of any impact on our ultimate operations if relations are strained between the United States and a foreign country in which we acquire a target business or move our principal manufacturing or service operations. If we acquire control of a target business through contractual arrangements with one or more operating businesses in, for example, China or India, such contracts may not be as effective in providing operational control as direct ownership of such business and may be difficult to enforce. While our efforts in identifying a prospective target business for our initial business transaction will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region, we will focus our search on identifying a prospective target business in either (i) the global business services sector or (ii) emerging Asian markets, China or India.  Certain governments such as the People’s Republic of China and India have restricted or limited foreign ownership of certain kinds of assets and companies operating in certain industries. The industry groups that are restricted are wide ranging, including, for example, certain aspects of telecommunications, food production, and heavy equipment manufacturers. In addition there can be restrictions on the foreign ownership of businesses that are determined from time to time to be in “important industries” that may affect the national economic security or having “famous brand names” or “well-established brand names.” Subject to the review and approval requirements of the relevant agencies for acquisitions of assets and companies in the relevant jurisdictions and subject to the various percentage ownership limitations that exist from time to time, acquisitions involving foreign investors and parties in the various restricted categories of assets and industries may nonetheless sometimes be consummated using contractual arrangements with permitted local parties. To the extent that such agreements are employed, they may be for control of specific assets such as intellectual property or control of blocks of the equity ownership interests of a company which may provide exceptions to the restrictions mentioned above since these types of arrangements typically do not involve a change of equity ownership in the operating company. The agreements would be designed to provide our company with the economic benefits of and control over the subject assets or equity interests similar to the rights of full ownership, while leaving the technical ownership in the hands of local parties who would be our nominees and, therefore, may exempt the transaction from certain regulations, including the application process required thereunder. However, since there has been limited implementation guidance provided with respect to such regulations, the relevant government agency might apply them to a business transaction effected through contractual arrangements. If such an agency determines that such an application should have been made or that our potential future target businesses are otherwise in violation of local laws or regulations, consequences may include confiscating relevant income and levying fines and other penalties, revoking business and other licenses, requiring restructure of ownership or operations, requiring discontinuation or restriction of the operations of any portion or all of the acquired business, restricting or prohibiting our use of the proceeds of this offering to finance our businesses and operations and imposing conditions or requirements with which we or potential future target businesses may not be able to comply. These agreements likely also would provide for increased ownership or full ownership and control by us when and if permitted under local laws and regulations. If we choose to effect a business transaction that employs the use of these types of control arrangements, we may have difficulty in enforcing our rights. Therefore, these contractual arrangements may not be as effective in providing us with the same economic benefits, accounting consolidation or control over a target business as would direct ownership. For example, if the target business or any other entity fails to perform its obligations under these contractual arrangements, we may have to incur substantial costs and expend substantial resources to enforce such arrangements, and rely on legal remedies under local law, including seeking specific performance or injunctive relief, and claiming damages, which we cannot assure will be sufficient to off-set the cost of enforcement and may adversely affect the benefits we expect to receive from the business transaction. If any dividend is declared in the future and paid in a foreign currency, you may be taxed on a larger amount in U.S. dollars than the U.S. dollar amount that you will actually ultimately receive. If you are a U.S. holder of our ordinary shares, you will be taxed on the U.S. dollar value of your dividends, if any, at the time you receive them, even if you actually receive a smaller amount of U.S. dollars when the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars.  Specifically, if a dividend is declared and paid in a foreign currency, the amount of the dividend distribution that you must include in your income as a U.S. holder will be the U.S. dollar value of the payments made in the foreign currency, determined at the spot rate of the foreign currency to the U.S. dollar on the  21   date the dividend distribution is includible in your income, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars.  Thus, if the value of the foreign currency decreases before you actually convert the currency into U.S. dollars, you will be taxed on a larger amount in U.S. dollars than the U.S. dollar amount that you will actually ultimately receive. If our management following a business transaction is unfamiliar with United States securities laws, they may have to expend time and resources becoming familiar with such laws which could lead to various regulatory issues. Following a business transaction, our management will likely resign from their positions as officers of the company and the management of the target business at the time of the business transaction will remain in place. We cannot assure you that management of the target business will be familiar with United States securities laws. If new management is unfamiliar with our laws, they may have to expend time and resources becoming familiar with such laws. This could be expensive and time-consuming and could lead to various regulatory issues which may adversely affect our operations. After a business transaction, substantially all of our assets will likely be located in a foreign country and substantially all of our revenue will be derived from our operations in such country. Accordingly, our results of operations and prospects will be subject, to a significant extent, to the economic, political and legal policies, developments and conditions in the country in which we operate. The economic, political and social conditions, as well as government policies, of the country in which our operations are located could affect our business. The economies of China, India and Southeast Asia differ from the economies of most developed countries in many respects.  For the most part, such economies have grown at a rate in excess of the United States; however, (i) such economic growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy and (ii) such growth may not be sustained in the future. If in the future such country’s economy experiences a downturn or grows at a slower rate than expected, there may be less demand for spending in certain industries. A decrease in demand for spending in certain industries could materially and adversely affect our ability to find an attractive target business with which to consummate a business transaction and if we effect a business transaction, the ability of that target business to become profitable. Currency policies may cause a target business’ ability to succeed in the international markets to be diminished. Because our initial objective is to acquire a target business having its primary operating facilities located within China, India or Southeast Asia and because substantially all revenues and income would likely be received in a foreign currency, the dollar equivalent of our net assets and distributions, if any, could be adversely affected by reductions in the value of the local currency. The value of the currencies in our target regions fluctuate and are affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions.  Any change in the relative value of such currency against our reporting currency may affect the attractiveness of any target business or, following consummation of our initial business transaction, our financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, if a currency appreciates in value against the dollar prior to the consummation of a business transaction, the cost of a target business as measured in dollars will increase, which may make it less likely that we are able to consummate such transaction. Because foreign law could govern almost all of our material agreements, we may not be able to enforce our rights within such jurisdiction or elsewhere, which could result in a significant loss of business, business opportunities or capital. Foreign law could govern almost all of our material agreements. We cannot assure you that the target business will be able to enforce any of its material agreements or that remedies will be available outside of such foreign jurisdiction’s legal system.  The system of laws and the enforcement of existing laws and contracts in such jurisdiction may not be as certain in implementation and interpretation as in the United States.  The judiciaries in China, India and Southeast Asia are relatively inexperienced in enforcing corporate and commercial law, leading to a higher than usual degree of uncertainty as to the outcome of any litigation.  As a result, the inability to enforce or obtain a remedy under any of our future agreements could result in a significant loss of business and business opportunities.  22   Many of the economies in China, India and Southeast Asia are experiencing substantial inflationary pressures which may prompt the governments to take action to control the growth of the economy and inflation that could lead to a significant decrease in our profitability following a business transaction. While many of the economies in China, India and Southeast Asia have experienced rapid growth over the last two decades, they currently are experiencing inflationary pressures.  As governments take steps to address the current inflationary pressures, there may be significant changes in the availability of bank credits, interest rates, limitations on loans, restrictions on currency conversions and foreign investment.  There may also be imposition of price controls. If prices for the products of our ultimate target business rise at a rate that is insufficient to compensate for the rise in the costs of supplies, it may have an adverse effect on our profitability.  If these or other similar restrictions are imposed by a government to influence the economy, it may lead to a slowing of economic growth.  Because we are not limited to any specific industry, the ultimate industry that we operate in may be affected more severely by such a slowing of economic growth. Many industries in China, India and Southeast Asia are subject to government regulations that limit or prohibit foreign investments in such industries, which may limit the potential number of acquisition candidates. Governments in China and India and many governments in Southeast Asia have imposed regulations that limit foreign investors’ equity ownership or prohibit foreign investments altogether in companies that operate in certain industries.  As a result, the number of potential acquisition candidates available to us may be limited or our ability to grow and sustain the business which we ultimately acquire will be limited. If China, India or a country in Southeast Asia enacts regulations in industry segments that forbid or restrict foreign investment, our ability to consummate a business transaction could be severely impaired. Many of the rules and regulations that companies face concerning foreign ownership are not explicitly communicated.  If new laws or regulations forbid or limit foreign investment in industries in which we want to complete a business transaction, they could severely impair our candidate pool of potential target businesses.  Additionally, if the relevant central and local authorities find us or the target business with which we ultimately complete a business transaction to be in violation of any existing or future laws or regulations, they would have broad discretion in dealing with such a violation, including, without limitation: ·levying fines; ·revoking our business and other licenses; ·requiring that we restructure our ownership or operations; and ·requiringthat we discontinue any portion or all of our business. Any of the above could have an adverse effect on our company post-business transaction and could materially reduce the value of your investment. Corporate governance standards in China, India and Southeast Asia may not be as strict or developed as in the United States and such weakness may hide issues and operational practices that are detrimental to a target business. General corporate governance standards in some countries are weak in that they do not prevent business practices that cause unfavorable related party transactions, over-leveraging, improper accounting, family company interconnectivity and poor management.  Local laws often do not go far enough to prevent improper business practices.  Therefore, shareholders may not be treated impartially and equally as a result of poor management practices, asset shifting, conglomerate structures that result in preferential treatment to some parts of the overall company, and cronyism.  The lack of transparency and ambiguity in the regulatory process may also result in inadequate credit evaluation and weakness that may precipitate or encourage financial crisis.  In our evaluation of a business transaction we will have to evaluate the corporate governance of a target and the business environment, and in accordance with United States laws for reporting companies take steps to implement practices that will cause compliance with all applicable rules and accounting practices.  Notwithstanding these intended efforts, there may be endemic practices and local laws that could add risk to an investment we ultimately make and that result in an adverse effect on our operations and financial results.  23   ITEM 1B.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Financial Statements and footnotes thereto contained in this report. Overview We are a blank check or shell company formed as a British Virgin Islands business company with limited liability for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation or contractual control arrangement with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, or engaging in any other similar business transaction with one or more operating businesses or assets that we have yet to identify. While our efforts in identifying a prospective target business for our initial business transaction will not be limited to a particular industry, geographic region or minimum transaction value, we will focus our search on identifying a  26   prospective target business in either (i) the global business services sector or (ii) emerging Asian markets. We do not have any specific business transaction under consideration although we are actively searching for a target business. As of December 31, 2015, we had $41 of cash on hand.  The issuance of additional ordinary shares in a business transaction: ·may significantly dilute the equity interests of our shareholders; ·may subordinate the rights of holders of ordinary shares if we issue preferred stock with rights senior to those afforded to our ordinary shares; ·may cause a change in control if a substantial number of our ordinary shares are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and most likely will also result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors; and ·mayadversely affect prevailing market prices for our ordinary shares. Similarly, any issuance of debt securities could result in: ·default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating cash flow after a business transaction is insufficient to pay our debt obligations; ·acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we have made all principal and interest payments when due if the debt security contains covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves and any such covenant is breached without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant; ·our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand; covenants that limit our ability to acquire capital assets or make additional acquisitions; ·our inability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, if the debt security contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain additional financing while such security is outstanding; ·our inability to pay dividends on our ordinary shares; ·using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our ordinary shares if declared, expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes; ·limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate; ·increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and ·limitationson our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt. Results of Operations and Known Trends or Future Events We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our entire activity since inception to the closing of our initial public offering was limited to preparations for that event. Since the consummation of our initial public offering, our activity has been limited to evaluating business transaction candidates. We have not generated any operating revenues and will not until after completion of our initial business transaction, at the earliest. We may generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, we had net loss of $101,898 consisting of expenses of $101,898. The reduction in expenses from 2014 to 2015 was due to a decline in the level of general business activity of the Company. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, we had net loss of $80,524 consisting of expenses of $115,674 and a gain on the write-down of accounts payable of $35,150.  27   Liquidity and Capital Resources As of December 31, 2015, we had $41 in a bank account available for use by management to cover the costs associated with identifying a target business and negotiating an acquisition or merger. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, we used cash of $0 in operating activities which was attributable to an increase in money due to affiliate of $104,303 advanced to the Company to settle certain vendor bills on behalf of the Company, payables of $2,405, together with a net loss for the period of $101,898. There was no net change in cash for twelve months period ending December 31, 2015. We started with a cash balance of $41 as of January 1, 2015. We ended the period at December 31, 2015 with a cash balance of $41. We do not believe that the $41 in funds available to us as of December 31, 2015 will be sufficient to allow us to operate in the future.  In the future, we will need to raise additional funds for identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, performing business due diligence on prospective target businesses, traveling to and from the offices, plants, sites or similar locations of prospective target businesses, reviewing corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, selecting the target business to acquire and structuring, negotiating and consummating the business transaction.  In order to meet our working capital needs, certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds, from time to time, or at any time, in whatever amount such officer or director deems reasonable in his sole discretion. The unpaid principal amount of any such loans may be converted, at the option of the lender, into different securities of the Company.  The holders of a majority of any such securities that may be issued (or the underlying shares) will be entitled to demand that we register these securities pursuant to an agreement to be entered into at the time of the loan.  The holders of a majority of these securities would have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed by us subsequent to such date.  We will bear the expense incurred with the filing of any such registration statements.  The terms of such loans by our officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist. We believe we will need to raise additional funds until the consummation of our initial business transaction to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. We may need to raise additional funds through a private offering of debt or equity securities if such funds are required to consummate a business transaction that is presented to us. We may consummate such financing at any time. The Board of Directors anticipates that the Company will need to raise capital to fund ongoing operations, including the compliance cost of continuing to remain a public reporting company, and to fund the acquisition of an operating business. The Company does not currently have any specific capital-raising plans. We may receive funds from some or all of our officers or directors, and we may seek to issue equity securities, including preferred securities for which we may determine the rights and designations, ordinary shares, warrants, equity rights, convertibles notes and any combination of the foregoing. Any such offering may take the form of a private placement, public offering, rights offering, other offering or any combination of the foregoing at fixed or variable market prices or discounts to prevailing market prices. We cannot assure you that we will be able to raise sufficient capital on favorable, or any, terms. We believe that the issuance of equity securities in such a financing will not be subject to shareholder approval if the Company’s Ordinary Shares are not then listed on a national exchange. Accordingly, you may not be entitled to vote on any future financing by the Company. Moreover, shareholders have no preemptive or other rights to acquire any securities that the Company may issue in the future. Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We did not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or entered into any non-financial assets. Contractual Obligations We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than a monthly fee of $7,500 for office space and general and administrative services payable to FlatWorld Capital LLC, an entity controlled by three officers of the Company. We began incurring this fee on December 9, 2010, and will continue to incur this fee monthly until the date on which the Company ceases its corporate existence  28   in accordance with its Ninth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.  The agreement was originally entered into with FWC Management Services Ltd, an entity controlled by two officers of the Company, however on December 31, 2013, we entered into an agreement with FWC Management Services Ltd and FlatWorld Capital LLC to assign FWC Management Services Ltd’s interest in the Administrative Services Agreement to FlatWorld Capital LLC.  Under such agreement, FlatWorld Capital LLC will continue to provide the services previously provided by FWC Management Services Ltd, and on the same terms under which such services were performed under the original agreement. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Financial Reporting Release No. 60, published by the SEC, recommends that all companies include a discussion of critical accounting policies used in the preparation of their financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact our consolidated financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. We believe that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report. Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Net loss per share The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. At December 31, 2015, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary share and then share in the earnings of the Company. Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption The Company accounts for redeemable ordinary shares that are redeemable for cash or other assets, by classifying them outside of permanent equity if they are redeemable at the option of the holder. In addition, the amount of ordinary shares subject to redemption is classified outside of permanent equity to the extent that such redemption does not cause a liquidation event. As discussed in Note A, in no event would the Company redeem its public shares in an amount that would exceed 76.5% of the shares sold in the Offering. Accordingly, prior to the Distribution, a total of 1,683,000 of ordinary shares were classified outside of permanent equity at redemption value, which was equal to the per share amount held in the Trust Account. The Company recognizes changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of ordinary shares subject to redemption equal its redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Currently, the Company does not classify any of its ordinary shares outside of permanent equity as none of the Company’s ordinary shares are subject to redemption following approval of an amendment to the Company’s Charter which removes, among other things, the blank check restrictions to which the Company was previously subject. Concentration of credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which at times, may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.  29   Reliance on Key Personnel The Company is heavily dependent on the continued active participation of the current directors and executive officers. The loss of any of the senior management could significantly and negatively impact the business until adequate replacements can be identified and put in place. Fair value of financial instruments The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet. In accordance with GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In accordance with GAAP, a fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.  Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.  Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.  The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows: Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.  Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 securities.  Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. Level 2 - Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors including, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the transaction.  To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment.  Those estimated values do not necessarily represent the amounts that may be ultimately realized due to the occurrence of future circumstances that cannot be reasonably determined.  Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed.  Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for securities categorized in Level 3.  In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.  In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure.  Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company's own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.  The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including periods of market dislocation. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheet for accounts payable and accrued expenses and due to affiliates approximates fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Use of estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial  30   statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Income tax The Company complies with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company did not establish a valuation allowance as of December 31, 2015 as there were no deferred tax assets at that date. The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-25 which establishes recognition requirements for the accounting for income taxes. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2015. The section prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at December 31, 2015. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.  The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. The adoption of the provisions of FASB / ASC 740-10-25 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operation and cash flows as of and for the period ended December 31, 2015. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.  The purpose is to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. This ASU is effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018.  Early adoption is not permitted except for limited provisions.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations. In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. This is part of FASB’s simplification initiative. The amendments in this ASU require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. This ASU is effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2017. Early adoption is permitted.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16,  Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments which allows entities to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts in the period adjustment is identified rather than retrospectively. In-period adjustments must be disclosed. This ASU is effective for  the Company in the first quarter of 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date of this ASU. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been issued.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations. In August 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-15, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30).” ASU 2015-15 provides guidance as to the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs associated with line of credit arrangements. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-15 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-15 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (Topic 606)." The amendments in this ASU defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. We do not  31   expect adoption of ASU 2015-14 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, "Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330)." ASU 2015-11 simplifies the accounting for the valuation of all inventory not accounted for using the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method by prescribing that inventory be valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. ASU 2015-11 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016 on a prospective basis. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-11 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We do not expect adoption of ASU 2015-14 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)." ASU 2015-05 provides guidance regarding the accounting for a customer's fees paid in a cloud computing arrangement; specifically about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, and if so, how to account for the software license. ASU 2015-05 is effective for public companies' annual periods, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 on either a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-05 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In June of 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2014-10, “Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation” (“ASU 2014-10”). The amendments in ASU 2014-10 remove the definition of a development stage entity from the master glossary of the Accounting Standards Codification, thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The amendments also clarify that the guidance in Topic 275, Risks and Uncertainties, is applicable to entities that have not commenced planned principal operations. The ASU 2014-10 did not have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flow. In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period." This ASU provides more explicit guidance for treating share-based payment awards that require a specific performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the financial statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Topic 205-40)”, which requires management to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for each annual and interim reporting period. If substantial doubt exists, additional disclosure is required. This new standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this new standard for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015 and the Company will continue to assess the impact on its consolidated financial statements. Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS Prior to the Distribution, the net proceeds of our initial public offering, including amounts in the trust account, were invested in U.S. “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) with a maturity of 180 days or less, or in money market funds meeting certain  32   conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk. ITEM 8. FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA The financial statements of the Company are included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning on page F-1, which are incorporated herein by reference. ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE On March 18, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company determined to dismiss Rothstein, Kass & Company, P.C. (“Rothstein Kass”) as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company.  Effective March 18, 2013, our Board approved the appointment of RBSM LLP (“RBSM”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm. There are no changes and/or disagreements with RBSM LLP, the company’s current independent registered accounting firm. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosure controls and procedures An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2015 was carried out by us under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in providing, reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow such timely decision regarding required disclosures. A controls system, no matter how well designed and operated cannot provide absolute assurance to achieve its objectives. Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting This Annual Report on form 10-K does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for newly public companies. Change in internal control over financial reporting During the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company  has made no changes to its internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. ITEM 9B. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Share Capital The Company is authorized to issue (i) an unlimited number of Ordinary Shares, (ii) 1,000,000 Class A Preferred Shares, (iii) 1,000,000 Class B Preferred Shares, (iv)1,000,000 Class C Preferred Shares, (v) 1,000,000 Class D Preferred Shares and (vi) 1,000,000 Class E Preferred Shares.  As of December 31, 2015, we had outstanding 2,869,375 Ordinary Shares, and no Preferred Shares issued and outstanding. Memorandum and Articles of Association The description of our ninth amended and restated memorandum and articles of association is contained in our 6-K report (File No.000-54173), filed with the Commission on December 21, 2012, which is incorporated herein by reference.   33   Material Contracts We have not entered into any material contracts other than in the ordinary course of business and other than those described in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in Item 12, “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Shareholder Matters” or elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K which are incorporated herein by reference. Exchange Controls and Other Limitations Affecting Security Holders Under British Virgin Islands law, there are currently no restrictions on the export or import of capital, including foreign exchange controls or restrictions that affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to non resident holders of our ordinary shares. Taxation British Virgin Islands Taxation The Government of the British Virgin Islands will not, under existing legislation, impose any income, corporate or capital gains tax, estate duty, inheritance tax, gift tax or withholding tax upon the company or its security-holders.  The British Virgin Islands are not party to any double taxation treaties. The company and all distributions, interest and other amounts paid by the company to persons who are not persons resident in the British Virgin Islands are exempt from the provisions of the Income Tax Act in the British Virgin Islands and any capital gains realized with respect to any shares, debt obligations or other securities of the company by persons who are not resident in the British Virgin Islands are exempt from all forms of taxation in the British Virgin Islands.  As of January 1, 2007, the Payroll Taxes Act, 2004 came into force. It will not apply to the company except to the extent the company has employees (and deemed employees) rendering services to the company wholly or mainly in the British Virgin Islands.  The company at present has no employees in the British Virgin Islands and has no intention of having any employees in the British Virgin Islands. No estate, inheritance, succession or gift tax, rate, duty, levy or other charge is payable by persons who are not persons resident in the British Virgin Islands with respect to any shares, debt obligations or other securities of the company. All instruments relating to transactions in respect of the shares, debt obligations or other securities of the company and all instruments relating to other transactions relating to the business of the company are exempt from the payment of stamp duty in the British Virgin Islands. There are currently no withholding taxes or exchange control regulations in the British Virgin Islands applicable to the company or its security-holders. United States Federal Income Taxation General The discussion below of the U.S. federal income tax consequences to “U.S. Holders” will apply to a beneficial owner of our securities that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes: ·an individual citizen or resident of the United States; ·a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation) that is created or organized (or treated as created or organized) in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; ·an estate whose income is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or ·atrust if (i) a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more U.S. persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) it has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. If a beneficial owner of our securities is not described as a U.S. Holder and is not an entity treated as a partnership or other pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such owner will be considered a “Non-U.S. Holder.” The material U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable specifically to Non-U.S. Holders is described below under the heading “Non-U.S. Holders.”  34   This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the “Code,” its legislative history, Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in effect. These authorities are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly on a retroactive basis. This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to any particular holder based on such holder’s individual circumstances. In particular, this discussion considers only holders that own our securities as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code, and does not address the potential application of the alternative minimum tax. In addition, this discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to holders that are subject to special rules, including: ·financial institutions or financial services entities; ·broker-dealers; ·taxpayers that are subject to the mark-to-market accounting rules under Section 475 of the Code; ·tax-exempt entities; ·governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof; ·insurance companies; ·regulated investment companies; ·real estate investment trusts; ·expatriates or former long-term residents of the United States; ·persons that actually or constructively own 5 percent or more of our voting shares; ·persons that acquired our securities pursuant to an exercise of employee share options, in connection with employee share incentive plans or otherwise as compensation; ·persons that hold our securities as part of a straddle, constructive sale, hedging, conversion or other integrated transaction; or ·personswhose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. This discussion does not address any aspect of U.S. federal non-income tax laws, such as gift or estate tax laws, state, local or non-U.S. tax laws or, except as discussed herein, any tax reporting obligations of a holder of our securities. Additionally, this discussion does not consider the tax treatment of partnerships or other pass-through entities or persons who hold our securities through such entities. If a partnership (or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our securities, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. This discussion also assumes that any distributions made (or deemed made) by us on our ordinary shares and any consideration received (or deemed received) by a holder in consideration for the sale or other disposition of our securities will be in U.S. dollars. We have not sought, and will not seek, a ruling from the IRS as to any U.S. federal income tax consequence described herein. The IRS may disagree with the descriptions herein, and its determination may be upheld by a court. Moreover, there can be no assurance that future legislation, regulations, administrative rulings or court decisions will not adversely affect the accuracy of the statements in this discussion. THIS DISCUSSION IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF THE MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF OUR SECURITIES. EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR IN OUR SECURITIES IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH INVESTOR OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF OUR SECURITIES, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS, AS WELL AS U.S. FEDERAL TAX LAWS AND ANY APPLICABLE TAX TREATIES.  35  Allocation of Purchase Price and Characterization of a Unit Each unit should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as an investment unit consisting of one ordinary share and one warrant to acquire one ordinary share. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, each holder of a unit generally must allocate the purchase price of a unit between the ordinary share and the warrant that comprise the unit based on the relative fair market value of each at the time of issuance. The price allocated to each ordinary share and the warrant generally will be the holder’s tax basis in such share or warrant, as the case may be. Each holder is advised to consult its own tax advisor regarding the risks associated with an investment in a unit (including alternative characterizations of a unit) and regarding an allocation of the purchase price between the ordinary share and the warrant that comprise a unit.  We do not intend to provide any allocation of the purchase price between the ordinary share and the warrant that comprise a unit. The balance of this discussion assumes that the characterization of the units described above is respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes. U.S. Holders Tax Reporting U.S. Holders will be required to file an IRS Form 926 (Return of a U.S. Transferor of Property to a Foreign Corporation) to report a transfer of property (other than cash) to us.  In addition, U.S. Holders will be required to file IRS Form 926 to report transfers of cash to us if the amount of such cash exceeds $100,000 or if such U.S. Holder holds directly or indirectly at least 10% of the total voting power or value of our ordinary shares following a transfer of cash to us.  Substantial penalties are generally imposed on a U.S. Holder that fails to comply with these reporting requirements. Each U.S. Holder is urged to consult with its own tax advisor regarding these reporting obligations. Taxation of Distributions Paid on Ordinary Shares Subject to the passive foreign investment company (‘‘PFIC’’) rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder generally will be required to include in gross income as ordinary income the amount of any cash dividend paid on our ordinary shares. A cash distribution on such shares generally will be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent the distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Such dividend will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to domestic corporations in respect of dividends received from other domestic corporations. Such distribution in excess of such earnings and profits generally will be applied against and reduce the U.S. Holder’s basis in its ordinary shares (but not below zero) and, to the extent in excess of such basis, will be treated as gain from the sale or exchange of such ordinary shares. With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders for taxable years beginning before January 1, 2013, dividends will be taxed at the lower applicable long-term capital gains rate (see ‘‘—Taxation on the Disposition of Ordinary Shares’ below) only if our ordinary shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States and certain other requirements are met.  Under published IRS authority, the term “established securities market in the United States” presently does not include the OTC Bulletin Board. Because our ordinary shares will be quoted only on the OTC Bulletin Board and will not, therefore, be treated as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, any cash dividends paid on our ordinary shares currently will not qualify for the lower rate. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of the lower rate for any dividends paid with respect to our ordinary shares. Taxation on the Disposition of Ordinary Shares Upon a sale or other taxable disposition of our ordinary shares, and subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, as well as the discussion in “—Possible Ordinary Income Treatment in Respect of Additional Amounts Following a Vote in Favor of a Proposed Business Transaction” below,a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the ordinary shares or warrants. The regular U.S. federal income tax rate on capital gains recognized by U.S. Holders generally is the same as the regular U.S. federal income tax rate on ordinary income, except that long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders are generally subject to U.S. federal income tax at a maximum regular rate of 15% for taxable years beginning before January 1, 2013 (and 20% thereafter). Capital gain or loss will constitute long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the ordinary shares or warrants exceeds one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to various limitations that are not described herein because a discussion of such limitations depends on each U.S. Holder’s particular facts and circumstances.  U.S. Holders who recognize  36   losses with respect to a disposition of our ordinary shares or warrants should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax treatment of such losses. Redemption of Ordinary Shares If a U.S. Holder redeems ordinary shares for the right to receive cash pursuant to the exercise of a shareholder redemption right or if we purchase a U.S. Holder’s ordinary shares in an open market transaction, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such redemption will be subject to the following rules.  If the redemption qualifies as a sale of the ordinary shares under Section 302 of the Code, then the tax treatment of such redemption will be as described under “—Taxation on the Disposition of Ordinary Shares” above.  If the redemption does not qualify as a sale of ordinary shares under Section 302 of the Code, a U.S. Holder will be treated as receiving a distribution with the tax consequences described below.  Whether that redemption qualifies for sale treatment will depend largely on the total number of our ordinary shares treated as held by such U.S. Holder.  The redemption of ordinary shares generally will be treated as a sale or exchange of the ordinary shares (rather than as a distribution) if the receipt of cash upon the redemption (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to a U.S. Holder, (ii) results in a “complete termination” of such holder’s interest in us or (iii) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to such holder.  These tests are explained more fully below. In determining whether any of the foregoing tests are satisfied, a U.S. Holder must take into account not only our ordinary shares actually owned by such holder, but also our ordinary shares that are constructively owned by such holder.  A U.S. Holder may constructively own, in addition to our ordinary shares owned directly, ordinary shares owned by related individuals and entities in which such holder has an interest or that have an interest in such holder, as well as any ordinary shares such holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, .  In order to meet the substantially disproportionate test, the percentage of our outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by a U.S. Holder immediately following the redemption of our ordinary shares must, among other requirements, be less than 80% of the percentage of our outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by such holder immediately before the redemption.  There will be a complete termination of a U.S. Holder’s interest if either (i) all of our ordinary shares actually and constructively owned by such U.S. Holder are redeemed or (ii) all of our ordinary shares actually owned by such U.S. Holder are redeemed and such holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives, in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of shares owned by family members and such holder does not constructively own any other shares.  The redemption of the ordinary shares will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if such redemption results in a “meaningful reduction” of a U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in us.  Whether the redemption will result in a meaningful reduction in a U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest in us will depend on the particular facts and circumstances.  However, the IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority shareholder in a publicly held corporation who exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.”  U.S. Holders should consult with their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of an exercise of the redemption right. If none of the foregoing tests are satisfied, then the redemption may be treated as a distribution and the tax effects will be as described under “—Taxation of Distributions Paid on Ordinary Shares,” above.  After the application of those rules, any remaining tax basis a U.S. Holder has in the redeemed ordinary shares will be added to the adjusted tax basis in such holder’s remaining ordinary shares.  If there are no remaining ordinary shares, a U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisors as to the allocation of any remaining basis. Exercise or Lapse of a Warrant Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder generally will not recognize gain or loss upon the acquisition of an ordinary share on the exercise of a warrant for cash. An ordinary share acquired pursuant to the exercise of a warrant for cash generally will have a tax basis equal to the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the warrant, increased by the amount paid to exercise the warrant. The holding period of such ordinary share generally would begin on the day after the date of exercise of the warrant. If a warrant is allowed to lapse unexercised, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize a capital loss equal to such holder’s tax basis in the warrant. U.S. Holders who exercise a warrant other than by paying the exercise price in cash should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax treatment of such an exercise, which may vary from that described above.  37   Additional Taxes After 2012 For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts and whose income exceeds certain thresholds generally will be subject to a 3.8% Medicare contribution tax on unearned income, including, among other things, dividends on, and capital gains from the sale or other taxable disposition of, our securities, subject to certain limitations and exceptions. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of such tax on their ownership and disposition of our securities. Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules A foreign (i.e., non-U.S.) corporation will be a PFIC if at least 75% of its gross income in a taxable year of the foreign corporation, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, is passive income. Alternatively, a foreign corporation will be a PFIC if at least 50% of its assets in a taxable year of the foreign corporation, ordinarily determined based on fair market value and averaged quarterly over the year, including its pro rata share of the assets of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets. Because we are a blank check company, with no current active business, we believe that it is likely that we will meet the PFIC asset or income test for our taxable year ending June 30, 2011. However, pursuant to a start-up exception, a corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the corporation has gross income, if (1) no predecessor of the corporation was a PFIC; (2) the corporation satisfies the IRS that it will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the start-up year; and (3) the corporation is not in fact a PFIC for either of those years. The applicability of the start-up exception to us will not be known until after the close of our taxable year ended June 30, 2013, at the earliest. After the acquisition of a company or assets in a business transaction, we may still meet one of the PFIC tests depending on the timing of the acquisition and the amount of our passive income and assets as well as the passive income and assets of the acquired business. If the company that we acquire in a business transaction is a PFIC, then we will likely not qualify for the start-up exception and will be a PFIC beginning with our taxable year ending June 30, 2011. Our actual PFIC status for our current taxable year or any subsequent taxable year, however, will not be determinable until after the end of such taxable year. Accordingly, there can be no assurance with respect to our status as a PFIC for our taxable year ending June 30, 2011 or any future taxable year. If we are determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder of our ordinary shares or warrants and, in the case of our ordinary shares, the U.S. Holder did not make either a timely qualified electing fund (“QEF”) election for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the U.S. Holder held (or was deemed to hold) ordinary shares, or a mark-to-market election, as described below, such holder generally will be subject to special rules with respect to: ·any gain recognized by the U.S. Holder on the sale or other disposition of its ordinary shares or warrants; and ·any “excess distribution” made to the U.S. Holder (generally, any distributions to such U.S. Holder during a taxable year of the U.S. Holder that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such U.S. Holder in respect of the ordinary shares during the three preceding taxable years of such U.S. Holder or, if shorter, such U.S. Holder’s holding period for the ordinary shares). Under these rules, ·the U.S. Holder’s gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the ordinary shares or warrants; ·the amount allocated to the U.S. Holder’s taxable year in which the U.S. Holder recognized the gain or received the excess distribution, or to the period in the U.S. Holder’s holding period before the first day of our first taxable year in which we are a PFIC, will be taxed as ordinary income; ·the amount allocated to other taxable years (or portions thereof) of the U.S. Holder and included in its holding period will be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and applicable to the U.S. Holder; and ·the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed in respect of the tax attributable to each such other taxable year of the U.S. Holder.  38   In general, a U.S. Holder will avoid the PFIC tax consequences described above in respect to our ordinary shares by making a timely QEF election to include in income its pro rata share of our net capital gains (as long-term capital gain) and other earnings and profits (as ordinary income), on a current basis, in each case whether or not distributed, in the taxable year of the U.S. Holder in which or with which our taxable year ends. A U.S. Holder may make a separate election to defer the payment of taxes on undistributed income inclusions under the QEF rules, but if deferred, any such taxes will be subject to an interest charge. A U.S. Holder may not make a QEF election with respect to its warrants to acquire our ordinary shares. As a result, if a U.S. Holder sells or otherwise disposes of such warrants (other than upon exercise of such warrants), any gain recognized generally will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above, if we were a PFIC at any time during the period the U.S. Holder held the warrants. If a U.S. Holder that exercises such warrants properly makes a QEF election with respect to the newly acquired ordinary shares (or has previously made a QEF election with respect to our ordinary shares), the QEF election will apply to the newly acquired ordinary shares, but the adverse tax consequences relating to PFIC shares, adjusted to take into account the current income inclusions resulting from the QEF election, will continue to apply with respect to such newly acquired ordinary shares (which generally will be deemed to have a holding period for purposes of the PFIC rules that includes the period the U.S. Holder held the warrants), unless the U.S. Holder makes a purging election. The purging election creates a deemed sale of such shares at their fair market value. The gain recognized by the purging election will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above. As a result of the purging election, the U.S. Holder will have a new basis and holding period in the ordinary shares acquired upon the exercise of the warrants for purposes of the PFIC rules. The QEF election is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and, once made, can be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. A U.S. Holder generally makes a QEF election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621 (Return by a Shareholder of a Passive Foreign investment Company or Qualified Electing Fund), including the information provided in a PFIC annual information statement, to a timely filed U.S. federal income tax return for the tax year to which the election relates. Retroactive QEF elections generally may be made only by filing a protective statement with such return and if certain other conditions are met or with the consent of the IRS.  U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability and tax consequences of a retroactive QEF election under their particular circumstances. In order to comply with the requirements of a QEF election, a U.S. Holder must receive a PFIC annual information statement from us.  If we determine we are a PFIC for any taxable year, we will endeavor to provide to a U.S. Holder such information as the IRS may require, including a PFIC annual information statement, in order to enable the U.S. Holder to make and maintain a QEF election. However, there is no assurance that we will have timely knowledge of our status as a PFIC in the future or of the required information to be provided. If a U.S. Holder has made a QEF election with respect to our ordinary shares, and the special tax and interest charge rules do not apply to such shares (because of a timely QEF election for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) such shares or a purge of the PFIC taint pursuant to a purging election, as described above), any gain recognized on the sale of our ordinary shares generally will be taxable as capital gain and no interest charge will be imposed. As discussed above, U.S. Holders of a QEF are currently taxed on their pro rata shares of its earnings and profits, whether or not distributed. In such case, a subsequent distribution of such earnings and profits that were previously included in income generally should not be taxable as a dividend to such U.S. Holders. The tax basis of a U.S. Holder’s shares in a QEF will be increased by amounts that are included in income, and decreased by amounts distributed but not taxed as dividends, under the above rules. Similar basis adjustments apply to property if by reason of holding such property the U.S. Holder is treated under the applicable attribution rules as owning shares in a QEF. Although a determination as to our PFIC status will be made annually, an initial determination that our company is a PFIC will generally apply for subsequent years to a U.S. Holder who held ordinary shares or warrants while we were a PFIC, whether or not we meet the test for PFIC status in those subsequent years. A U.S. Holder who makes the QEF election discussed above for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) our ordinary shares, however, will not be subject to the PFIC tax and interest charge rules discussed above in respect to such shares. In addition, such U.S. Holder will not be subject to the QEF inclusion regime with respect to such shares for any taxable year of us that ends within or with a taxable year of the U.S. Holder and in which we are not a PFIC. On the other hand, if the QEF election is not effective for each of our taxable years in which we are a PFIC and the U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) our ordinary shares, the PFIC  39   rules discussed above will continue to apply to such shares unless the holder makes a purging election, as described above, and pays the tax and interest charge with respect to the gain inherent in such shares attributable to the pre-QEF election period. Alternatively, if a U.S. Holder, at the close of its taxable year, owns shares in a PFIC that are treated as marketable stock, the U.S. Holder may make a mark-to-market election with respect to such shares for such taxable year. If the U.S. Holder makes a valid mark-to-market election for the first taxable year of the U.S. Holder in which the U.S. Holder holds (or is deemed to hold) ordinary shares in us and for which we are determined to be a PFIC, such holder generally will not be subject to the PFIC rules described above in respect to its ordinary shares. Instead, in general, the U.S. Holder will include as ordinary income each year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of its ordinary shares at the end of its taxable year over the adjusted basis in its ordinary shares. The U.S. Holder also will be allowed to take an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of its ordinary shares over the fair market value of its ordinary shares at the end of its taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the mark-to-market election). The U.S. Holder’s basis in its ordinary shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts, and any further gain recognized on a sale or other taxable disposition of the ordinary shares will be treated as ordinary income. Currently, a mark-to-market election may not be made with respect to warrants. The mark-to-market election is available only for stock that is regularly traded on a national securities exchange that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission or on a foreign exchange or market that the IRS determines has rules sufficient to ensure that the market price represents a legitimate and sound fair market value. Because our ordinary shares will be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, they will not currently qualify as marketable stock for purposes of the election. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability and tax consequences of a mark-to-market election in respect to our ordinary shares under their particular circumstances. If we are a PFIC and, at any time, have a foreign subsidiary that is classified as a PFIC, U.S. Holders generally would be deemed to own a portion of the shares of such lower-tier PFIC, and generally could incur liability for the deferred tax and interest charge described above if we receive a distribution from, or dispose of all or part of our interest in, the lower-tier PFIC or the U.S. Holders otherwise were deemed to have disposed of an interest in the lower-tier PFIC. We will endeavor to cause any lower-tier PFIC to provide to a U.S. Holder the information that may be required to make or maintain a QEF election with respect to the lower- tier PFIC. However, there is no assurance that we will have timely knowledge of the status of any such lower-tier PFIC.  In addition, we may not hold a controlling interest in any such lower-tier PFIC and thus there can be no assurance we will be able to cause the lower-tier PFIC to provide the required information.  U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax issues raised by lower-tier PFICs. If a U.S. Holder owns (or is deemed to own) shares in a PFIC during any taxable year of the U.S. Holder, such holder will have to file an IRS Form 8621 in any such taxable year in which such holder (1) recognizes gain on a direct or indirect disposition of such PFIC’s stock, (2) receives direct or indirect distributions from such PFIC, (3) is making a QEF election with respect to such PFIC’s stock or (4) as otherwise provided in future Treasury regulations. The rules dealing with PFICs and with the QEF and mark-to-market elections are very complex and are affected by various factors in addition to those described above. Accordingly, U.S. Holders of our ordinary shares and warrants should consult their own tax advisors concerning the application of the PFIC rules to our ordinary shares and warrants under their particular circumstances. Non-U.S. Holders Dividends (including constructive dividends) paid or deemed paid to a Non-U.S. Holder in respect to its ordinary shares generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, unless the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base that such holder maintains in the United States). In addition, a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain attributable to a sale or other disposition of our ordinary shares or warrants unless such gain is effectively connected with its conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base that such holder maintains in the United States) or the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of sale or other  40   disposition and certain other conditions are met (in which case, such gain from United States sources generally is subject to tax at a 30% rate or a lower applicable tax treaty rate). Dividends and gains that are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base in the United States) generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax (but not the Medicare contribution tax) at the same regular U.S. federal income tax rates applicable to a comparable U.S. Holder and, in the case of a Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, may also be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a 30% rate or a lower applicable tax treaty rate. The U.S. federal income tax treatment of a Non-U.S. Holder’s exercise of a warrant, or the lapse of a warrant held by a Non-U.S. Holder, generally will correspond to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the exercise or lapse of a warrant by a U.S. Holder, as described under “U.S. Holders—Exercise or Lapse of a Warrant,” above. In addition, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of any additional amount payable to a Non-U.S. Holder that votes in favor of a business transaction generally will correspond to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of such additional amount to a U.S. Holder, as described under “U.S. Holders—Possible Ordinary Income Treatment in Respect of Additional Amounts Following a Vote in Favor of a Proposed Business Transaction,” above. However, a Non-U.S. Holder generally should be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any such additional amount only if such amount is effectively connected with its conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base that such holder maintains in the United States). Backup Withholding and Information Reporting In general, information reporting for U.S. federal income tax purposes should apply to distributions made on our ordinary shares within the United States to a non-corporate U.S. Holder and to the proceeds from sales and other dispositions of our ordinary shares or warrants by a non-corporate U.S. Holder to or through a U.S. office of a broker. Payments made (and sales and other dispositions effected at an office) outside the United States will be subject to information reporting in limited circumstances. In addition, backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax, currently at a rate of 28%, generally will apply to dividends paid on our ordinary shares to a non-corporate U.S. Holder and the proceeds from sales and other dispositions of shares or warrants by a non-corporate U.S. Holder, in each case who: ·fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number; ·is notified by the IRS that backup withholding is required; or ·fails to comply with applicable certification requirements. A Non-U.S. Holder generally will eliminate the requirement for information reporting and backup withholding by providing certification of its foreign status, under penalties of perjury, on a duly executed applicable IRS Form W-8 or by otherwise establishing an exemption. We will withhold all taxes required to be withheld by law from any amounts otherwise payable to any holder of our ordinary shares or securities, including tax withholding required by the backup withholding rules.  Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the amount of any backup withholding will be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder’s or a Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the requisite information is timely furnished to the IRS. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of backup withholding and the availability of and procedure for obtaining an exemption from backup withholding in their particular circumstances.

Officer and Director Qualifications We have not established a nominating committee and have not formally established any specific, minimum qualifications that must be met by each of our officers or directors or specific qualities or skills that are necessary for one or more of our officers or members of the board of directors to possess. However, we generally evaluate the following qualities: educational background, diversity of professional experience, including whether the person is a current or former CEO or CFO of a public company or the head of a division of a prominent international organization, knowledge of our business, integrity, professional reputation, independence, wisdom, and ability to represent the best interests of our shareholders. Our officers and board of directors are composed of a diverse group of leaders.  In their prior positions they have gained experience in core management skills, such as strategic and financial planning, public company financial reporting, compliance, risk management, and leadership development. Most of our officers and directors also have experience serving on boards of directors and board committees of other public companies and private companies, and have an understanding of corporate governance practices and trends, which provides an understanding of different business processes, challenges, and strategies. Further, certain of our officers and directors have other experience that makes them valuable, such as prior experience leading a target in connection with a blank check company business transaction, managing and investing assets or facilitating the consummation of business transactions. We, along with our officers and directors, believe that the above-mentioned attributes, along with the leadership skills and other experiences of our officers and board members described below, provide us with a diverse range of perspectives and judgment necessary to facilitate our goals of consummating a business transaction. Gilbert H. Lamphere Mr. Lamphere is well-qualified to serve as a member of the board due to his public company experience, business leadership, operational experience, and experience as a principal investor and financier in private equity transactions.  We believe Mr. Lamphere’s access to extensive contacts and sources, ranging from private and public company contacts, private equity funds and investment bankers will allow us to generate acquisition opportunities and identify suitable acquisition candidates. We believe Mr. Lamphere’s strategic experience and background in negotiating, structuring and consummating private equity transactions will further our purpose of consummating a business transaction. Raj K. Gupta Mr. Gupta is well-qualified to serve as a member of the board due to his public company experience, business leadership, operational experience and private equity investing experience.  We believe Mr. Gupta’s access to extensive contacts and sources, ranging from private and public company contacts, private equity funds and investment bankers will allow us to generate acquisition opportunities and identify suitable acquisition candidates. Jeffrey A. Valenty Mr. Valenty is well-qualified to serve as a member of the board due to his extensive contacts and sources, ranging from private and public contacts, private equity funds and investment bankers which, we believe, will allow us to generate acquisition opportunities. We believe Mr. Valenty’s extensive experience in evaluating businesses  43  and in providing private equity investments, high yield financings and merger and acquisition advisory services will allow us to identify suitable acquisition candidates and further our purpose of consummating a business transaction. Shri Krishan Gupta Mr. Gupta is well-qualified to serve as a member of the board due to his extensive contacts and relationships.  Having built and run one of the largest dairy plants in North India, he has the hands on knowledge of operating in bureaucratic challenging emerging markets such as India.  Mr. Gupta also has intimate knowledge of negotiating and selling businesses in India. Number and Terms of Office of Directors Our board of directors is divided into two classes with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class serving a two-year term. The term of office of the first class of directors, consisting of Messrs. S.K. Gupta and Lamphere, will expire at our first annual meeting of shareholders. The term of office of the second class of directors, consisting of Messrs. Gupta and Valenty, will expire at the second annual meeting of shareholders. These individuals will play a key role in identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition candidates, selecting the target business, and structuring, negotiating and consummating our initial business transaction. Collectively, through their positions described above, our directors have extensive experience in the alternative asset management and private equity businesses. We do not currently intend to hold an annual meeting of shareholders until after we consummate our initial business transaction. Therefore, if our shareholders want us to hold a meeting prior to such consummation, they may requisition the directors to hold one upon the written request of members entitled to exercise at least 30 percent of the voting rights in respect of the matter for which the meeting is requested. Under British Virgin Islands law, we may not increase the required percentage to call a meeting above 30 percent. Board Committees Our board of directors intends to establish an audit committee and a compensation committee upon consummation of a business transaction. At that time our board of directors intends to adopt charters for these committees. Prior to such time we do not intend to establish either one. Accordingly, there will not be a separate committee comprised of some members of our board of directors with specialized accounting and financial knowledge to meet, analyze and discuss solely financial matters concerning prospective target businesses. We do not feel a compensation committee is necessary prior to a business transaction as there will be no salary, fees or other compensation being paid to our officers or directors prior to a business transaction other than as disclosed in the prospectus. Code of Conduct In December 2010, our board of directors adopted a code of ethics for senior executive and financial officers. A copy of the code of ethics is filed as an exhibit to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION No compensation of any kind will be paid to our officers and directors (directly or indirectly) prior to a business transaction; however, our officers and directors will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on our behalf such as identifying prospective target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business transactions. There is no limit on the amount of these out-of-pocket expenses and there will be no review of the reasonableness of the expenses by anyone other than our board of directors, which includes persons who may seek reimbursement, or a court of competent jurisdiction if such reimbursement is challenged.  Since it is unlikely that any of our directors would be considered “independent,” we will not have the benefit of independent directors examining the propriety of expenses incurred on our behalf and subject to reimbursement. After our business transaction, our executive officers and directors who remain with us may be paid consulting, management or other fees from the combined company with any and all amounts being fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the notice furnished to our shareholders. It is unlikely, however, that the amount of such compensation will be known at the time of a shareholder meeting held to consider a business transaction, as it will be up to the directors of the post-combination business to determine executive officer and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to our chief executive officer and other officers will be  44   determined, or recommended to the board of directors for determination, either by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors or by a majority of the independent directors on our board of directors.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE On July 9, 2010, the Company issued to its sponsor 1,078,125 ordinary shares for an aggregate amount of $25,000 in cash.  On October 8, 2010, the Company effected a share combination (reverse stock split) of its issued and outstanding ordinary shares, with each ordinary share being combined into 0.933333 ordinary shares.  On November 9, 2010, the Company effected another share combination (reverse stock split) of its issued and outstanding ordinary shares, with each ordinary share being combined into 0.5714286 ordinary shares. On December 9, 2010, the Company effected a 1.1 for 1 share split (forward) of its issued and outstanding ordinary shares. As a result, the Company’s sponsor (and sole shareholder) was left with 632,500 ordinary shares (58,625 of which were forfeited since the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full).  All share information in the Company’s financial statements have been retroactively restated for the effect of this share combination. The sponsor has agreed that the ordinary shares purchased by it prior to consummation of the offering will not be sold or transferred until one year following consummation of a Business Transaction, subject to certain limited exceptions. The Company had entered into an unsecured promissory note with the Company’s sponsor in an aggregate principal amount of $125,000. The note did not bear interest. The note was payable on the earlier of (i) July 9, 2011 or (ii) the date of the consummation of the offering. This promissory note was repaid on December 15, 2010. During the period ended December 31, 2010, an affiliate of the Company paid certain vendor bills on behalf of the Company in the amount of $37,700.  The advance was non-interest bearing and payable upon the earlier of July 9, 2011 or upon consummation of the offering. This amount was repaid on August 23, 2010. During the period ended December 31, 2010, the Company transferred money to an affiliate to settle certain vendor bills on behalf of the Company.  As of December 31, 2010, $61,458 had not been paid out to third party vendors and was recorded on the balance sheet as “due from Affiliate”. The sponsor purchased, in a private placement, 2,000,000 warrants prior to the offering at a price of $0.75 per warrant (a purchase price of $1,500,000) from the Company. The sponsor agreed that the warrants purchased by it will not be sold or transferred until 30 days following consummation of a Business Transaction, subject to certain limited exceptions. Because the Company did not complete a Business Transaction, the proceeds were part of the liquidating distribution to the public shareholders and the warrants issued to the sponsor expired worthless on September 9, 2012. On December 9, 2010, the Company entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with FWC Management Services Ltd, an entity controlled by two officers of the Company, for an estimated aggregate monthly fee of $7,500 for office space, secretarial, and administrative services. This agreement expired on September 9, 2012. On December 21, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with FWC Management Services Ltd renewing the Administrative Services Agreement dated December 9, 2010. On December 31, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with FWC Management Services Ltd and FlatWorld Capital LLC, an entity controlled by three officers of the Company, to assign FWC Management Services Ltd’s interest in the Administrative Services Agreement to FlatWorld Capital LLC.  Under such agreement, FlatWorld Capital LLC will continue to provide the services previously performed by FWC Management Services Ltd on the same terms of the Administrative Services  46  Agreement, and all previous fees outstanding and payable to FWC Management Services Ltd will be payable to FlatWorld Capital LLC. The sponsor is entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on December 9, 2010. The sponsor is entitled to demand registration rights and certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to its ordinary shares. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. As of December 31, 2015, there was a balance of $371,612 due to affiliates of the Company for advancing money to settle certain vendor bills on behalf of the Company and for $300,000 due to FlatWorld Capital LLC under the Administrative Services Agreement. Director Independence The laws of the British Virgin Islands do not require independent directors and since we anticipate that our securities will be quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, we do not intend to establish a board of directors comprised of a majority of independent directors until after we consummate our initial business transaction. ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES Since March 18, 2013, the Company’s principal independent registered public accounting firm has been RBSM, located at 805 Third Avenue, Suite 1430  New York, NY 10022.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FlatWorld Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2015. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note A to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses since inception, has working capital deficit and is experiencing difficulty in generating sufficient cash flow to sustain its operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to this matter are described in Note A. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.   /s/  RBSM LLP New York, NY March 30, 2016    F-3   FlatWorld Acquisition Corp.

FlatWorld Acquisition Corp.  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  For the Years Ended December 31, 2015 and 2014  NOTE A — DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS FlatWorld Acquisition Corp. (the “Company” or “FlatWorld”) is a blank check company formed on June 25, 2010 as a British Virgin Islands business company with limited liability for the purpose of acquiring, engaging in a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation or contractual control arrangement with, purchasing all or substantially all of the assets of, or engaging in any other similar business transaction, one or more unidentified operating business or assets (“Business Transaction”). The Company’s efforts in identifying a prospective target business for its Business Transaction will not be limited to a particular industry, geographic region or minimum transaction value, but will focus its search on identifying a prospective target business in either (i) the global business services sector or (ii) emerging Asian markets. On June 29, 2011, the Company changed its fiscal year solely for financial accounting purposes such that the Company’s fiscal year will now end on December 31st of each calendar year. The Company had initially adopted a fiscal year end of June 30th solely for financial accounting purposes. On December 31, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with FWC Management Services Ltd and FlatWorld Capital LLC, an entity controlled by three officers of the Company, to assign FWC Management Services Ltd’s interest in the Administrative Services Agreement to FlatWorld Capital LLC.  Under such agreement, FlatWorld Capital LLC will continue to provide the services previously performed by, and on the same terms of, FWC Management Services Ltd, and all previous fees outstanding will be payable to FlatWorld Capital LLC. Going concern consideration The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. As indicated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, at December 31, 2015, the Company had $41 in cash, current liabilities of $422,152 and a working capital deficit (current liabilities minus current assets) of $422,111. Further, the Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur costs. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue operations as a going concern unless further financing is consummated. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to the December 31, 2015 consolidated financial statements states that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Board of Directors anticipates that the Company will need to raise capital to fund ongoing operations, including the compliance cost of continuing to remain a public reporting company, and to fund the acquisition of an operating business. The Company does not currently have any specific capital-raising plans. The Company may receive funds from some or all of our officers or directors, and it may seek to issue equity securities, including preferred securities for which it may determine the rights and designations, ordinary shares, warrants, equity rights, convertibles notes and any combination of the foregoing. Any such offering may take the form of a private placement, public offering, rights offering, other offering or any combination of the foregoing at fixed or variable market prices or discounts to prevailing market prices. The Company cannot assure you that they will be able to raise sufficient capital on favorable, or any, terms. The Company believes that the issuance of equity securities in such a financing will not be subject to shareholder approval if the Company’s Ordinary Shares are not then listed on a national exchange. Accordingly, you may not be entitled to vote on any future financing by the Company. Moreover, shareholders have no preemptive or other rights to acquire any securities that the Company may issue in the future.





NOTE B — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements and with Form 10-K and pursuant to the article 8 of the Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Net loss per share The Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Common share equivalents are excluded from the diluted earnings (loss) per share computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. At December 31, 2015, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. Cash The Company considers cash to consist of cash on hand and temporary investments having an original maturity of 90 days or less that are readily convertible into cash. Concentration of credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in financial institutions, which at times, may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts. Reliance on Key Personnel The Company is heavily dependent on the continued active participation of the current directors and executive officers. The loss of any of the senior management could significantly and negatively impact the business until adequate replacements can be identified and put in place. Fair value of financial instruments The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet. In accordance with GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In accordance with GAAP, a fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.  Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.  Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.  The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows: Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.  Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 securities.  Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. Level 2 - Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors including, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the





marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the transaction.  To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment.  Those estimated values do not necessarily represent the amounts that may be ultimately realized due to the occurrence of future circumstances that cannot be reasonably determined.  Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed.  Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for securities categorized in Level 3.  In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.  In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure.  Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company's own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.  The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including periods of market dislocation. As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheet for accounts payable and accrued expenses and due to affiliates approximates fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Use of estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Income tax The Government of British Virgin Islands will not, under existing legislation, impose any income, corporate or capital gains tax, estate duty, inheritance tax, gift tax or withholding tax upon the Company or its security holders. The British Virgin Islands is not party to any double taxation treaties. Notwithstanding the above, the Company complies with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company did not establish a valuation allowance as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 as there were no deferred tax assets at that date. The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-25 which establishes recognition requirements for the accounting for income taxes. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. The section prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at December 31, 2015 and 2014. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.  The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. Recently issued accounting pronouncements In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.  The purpose is to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. This ASU is effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018.  Early adoption is not permitted except for limited provisions.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations. In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. This is part of FASB’s simplification initiative. The amendments in this ASU require that deferred tax liabilities and assets





be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. This ASU is effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2017. Early adoption is permitted.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16,  Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments which allows entities to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts in the period adjustment is identified rather than retrospectively. In-period adjustments must be disclosed. This ASU is effective for  the Company in the first quarter of 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date of this ASU. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been issued.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations. In August 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-15, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30).” ASU 2015-15 provides guidance as to the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs associated with line of credit arrangements. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-15 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-15 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (Topic 606)." The amendments in this ASU defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. We do not expect adoption of ASU 2015-14 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, "Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330)." ASU 2015-11 simplifies the accounting for the valuation of all inventory not accounted for using the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method by prescribing that inventory be valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. ASU 2015-11 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016 on a prospective basis. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-11 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We do not expect adoption of ASU 2015-14 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)." ASU 2015-05 provides guidance regarding the accounting for a customer's fees paid in a cloud computing arrangement; specifically about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, and if so, how to account for the software license. ASU 2015-05 is effective for public companies' annual periods, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 on either a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-05 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In June of 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2014-10, “Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation” (“ASU 2014-10”). The amendments in ASU 2014-10 remove the definition of a development stage entity from the master glossary of the Accounting Standards Codification, thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The amendments also clarify that the guidance in Topic 275, Risks and Uncertainties, is applicable to entities that have not commenced planned principal operations. The ASU 2014-10 did not have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flow.





In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period." This ASU provides more explicit guidance for treating share-based payment awards that require a specific performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the financial statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Topic 205-40)”, which requires management to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for each annual and interim reporting period. If substantial doubt exists, additional disclosure is required. This new standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this new standard for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015 and the Company will continue to assess the impact on its consolidated financial statements. Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements. . NOTE C — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS On December 9, 2010, the Company entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with FWC Management Services Ltd, an entity controlled by two officers of the Company, for an estimated aggregate monthly fee of $7,500 for office space, secretarial, and administrative services.  On December 21, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with FWC Management Services Ltd renewing the Administrative Services Agreement. On December 31, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with FWC Management Services Ltd and FlatWorld Capital LLC, an entity controlled by three officers of the Company, to assign FWC Management Services Ltd’s interest in the Administrative Services Agreement to FlatWorld Capital LLC.  Under such agreement, FlatWorld Capital LLC will continue to provide the services previously performed by, and on the same terms of, FWC Management Services Ltd, and all previous fees outstanding will be payable to FlatWorld Capital LLC.  Through December 31, 2015, $450,000 has been incurred under this agreement, of which $150,000 has been paid and $300,000 remains outstanding under due to affiliate. As of December 31, 2015, there was a total balance of $371,612 due to affiliates of the Company for advancing money to settle certain vendor bills on behalf of the Company, $300,000 of which (as described above) was due to FlatWorld Capital LLC under the Administrative Services Agreement. NOTE D — COMMITMENTS Litigation There is no litigation currently pending or, to our knowledge, contemplated against us, our sponsor or any of our officers or directors in their capacities as such. Although we are not aware of any pending or contemplated litigation, the Company may, from time to time, become subject to certain legal proceedings and claims, which may arise in the ordinary course of its business. Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur, the Company believes that the final disposition of such matters should not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity. NOTE E— WARRANTS AND OPTIONS Warrants As of December 31, 2015, the Company had no outstanding warrants. Units The Company issued a unit purchase option, for $100, to Rodman, the representative of the underwriters in the IPO, to purchase 88,000 Units (4% of the total number of units sold in the IPO) at an exercise price of $12.50 per Unit. The Units issuable upon exercise of this option are identical to the Units offered in the IPO. This option is exercisable commencing on the later of the consummation of a Business Transaction and one year from the date of the IPO and expiring five years from the date of the IPO. The Company estimated the fair value of this unit purchase option at approximately $2.59 per unit using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of the unit





purchase option granted to the underwriter was estimated as of the date of grant using the following assumptions: (1) expected volatility of 35%, (2) risk-free interest rate of 1.78% and (3) expected life of 5 years. The unit purchase option may be exercised for cash or on a “cashless” basis, at the holder’s option, such that the holder may use the appreciated value of the unit purchase option (the difference between the exercise prices of the unit purchase option and the underlying Warrants and the market price of the Units and underlying ordinary shares) to exercise the unit purchase option without the payment of cash. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014 the option to purchase 88,000 Units remained outstanding.
