Minhua Chen





Chairman Chen has been the Chief Executive Officer of China Yida Holding, Co. since November 2007.  Chairman Chen is a Director for Fuzhou Hongda Commercial Services Co., Ltd. and the Chairman for Fujian Jintai Tourism Developments Co., Ltd. and Anhui Yida Tourism Development Co., Ltd., and is also the Chief Executive Officer of Jiangxi Fenyi Yida Tourism Development Co., Ltd. and Jiangxi Zhangshu Yida Toursism Development Co., For the past five years, Chairman Chen has been a part-time professor at the Tourism College of Fujian Normal University and a tutor for postgraduate students.  He is also the vice-president of Fujian Provincial Tourism Institute and vice-president of Fujian Advertisement Association. From 1978 to 1992, he was a news journalist and editor-in-chief of “Fujian Internal Reference,” eventually becoming the head of the journalist station of “Fujian Daily” in Sanming City and general manager of the newspaper “HK-Taiwan Information.”  During that period, he was appointed as chief journalist of Fujian Province to HK, where he was in charge of news and management of the publication.  During these years, several of his works in journalism received national and provincial prizes and were published in books.  He received awards for “Excellent News Journalist” and “Advanced Workers of News Management.”  Since the establishment of New Handsome Joint Group in 1995, he has advocated and practiced the concept of “circulating cultural economy.”  In 2005, he published a scholarly treatise “General Theory of Tourism and Chinese Traditional Culture”, which has been used as the educational material for undergraduates in Tourism College of Fujian Normal University.  In February 2007, he was awarded as one of the “2006 Ten Most Distinguished Persons of Fujian Economic.”  Since 1992, Chairman Chen has worked full-time as Hong Kong Yi Tat’s CEO and has run all the subsidiaries, including the media and tourism businesses. We believe that Mr. Chen’s experience in the media and tourism industry in general and his services as a key executive and/or director of our subsidiaries and other media companies qualify him to serve as a director of the Company.





Yanling Fan





Yanling Fan has served as Chief Operating Officer of the Company since 2001 and a director of the Company since November 2007. She is the Executive Director of Fujian Jiaoguang Media Co., Ltd., Chairman for Fuzhou Hongda Commercial Services Co., Ltd., a Director of Fujian Jintai Tourism Developments Co., Ltd., and a member of the Board of Supervisors of Jiangxi Fenyi Yida Tourism Development Co., Ltd. and Jiangxi Zhangshu Yida Tourism Development Co. From 1992 to 1994, Ms. Fan was a journalist and radio anchorwoman for the Voice of Haixia.  From 1995 to 2004, she was the general manager of New Handsome Advertisement Co., Ltd.  Since 2000, she has taken on the following positions: General Manager of New Handsome Joint Group (Fujian), General Manager of Hong Kong Yitat International Investment Co., Ltd, Chairman of Fujian Gold Lake Economy and Trading (Tourism) Development Co., Ltd., Director of Sydney Communication College (Australia), and General Manager of Fujian Education and Broadcasting Media Co., Ltd.  In 2005, she was awarded “Fujian Splendid Women” and “Advanced worker of advertisement industry Fuzhou 2005.” We believe that Ms. Fan’s experience in the media and tourism industry and her current and previous services in various media companies qualify her to serve as a director of the Company.

He has extensive financial experience working at large-scale enterprises in Fujian province.

Michael Marks





Michael Marks has been a director of the Company since June 2009. Until December 2007 he was a managing director and principal of Sonnenblick Goldman Asia Pacific Limited. Until July 2009, Mr. Marks was the President and Director of Middle Kingdom Alliance Corp., a Special Purpose Acquisition Corporation, which invested in and merged with Pypo Digital Company Limited.  Mr. Marks served as a director of the board of the newly merged company, Funtalk China Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: FTLK) until August 2011 when the company completed a take-private transaction. Mr. Marks also formerly served as audit committee chairman and independent director of Shengkai Innovations, Inc. (NASDAQ: VALV) from October 2009 to May 2012 and Jiangbo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: JGBO) from July 2008 to June 2011. Mr. Marks also served as an independent director and audit committee member of China Housing and Land, Inc. (NASDAQ: CHLN) from October 2007 to October 2011 and Yanglin Soybean, Inc. (OTCBB: YSYB) from April 2009 to October 2011.





Mr. Marks has been involved in over US$2 billion of transactions in China over the past ten years, as a principal, advisor, or investment banker, and has worked closely with international and Chinese institutions.  These include, inter alia, The Carlyle Group, Starwood Capital, Goldman Sachs, Citibank Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, China Construction Bank, Agricultural Bank of China, Dubai Investment Group, Investec Bank, Standard Bank, Beijing International Trust and Investment Corporation, China Jin Mao Group Company Limited, and Shanghai Investment Group.





In January 2003, Mr. Marks founded the China practice of Sonnenblick Goldman, a New York headquartered investment bank established in 1893, and served as China managing director and regional principal of the firm until December 2007 when the global firm was sold.  In September 2002, Mr. Marks founded the Shanghai office of Horwath Asia Pacific, a management consulting and advisory firm affiliated with Horwath International, a global accounting and advisory firm.  He served as its director and Shanghai representative until December 2005.  From January 1998 to June 1999, Mr. Marks served as a manager of Horwath Asia Pacific in Sydney, Australia.  In March 2001, Mr. Marks founded B2Globe, and served as its chief executive officer until August 2002, when B2Globe was sold.





In June 1999, Mr. Marks joined Metro Education in China and co-founded Metro Corporate Training in Shanghai, and served as the group and company’s chief executive officer until February 2001.  From June 1999 to November 2004, when a controlling interest in Metro Education was sold, Mr. Marks also served as a director.  From January 1995 to January 1998, Mr. Marks worked in the audit, corporate finance and advisory divisions in the Johannesburg, South Africa office of PricewaterhouseCoopers.





Mr. Marks graduated with a Bachelor of Commerce (Honors) and Masters of Commerce from the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1994 and 1997 respectively.  He was also president of the Commerce Students Council and vice-president of the All Faculty Council in 1994.  In 1998 Mr. Marks graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (Psychology) degree from the University of South Africa.  In 1995, Mr. Marks completed his qualifying examinations of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants in the United Kingdom.  In 1997, Mr. Marks qualified as a Chartered Accountant in South Africa, and in 1999 as a Fellow of the Association of International Accountants in the United Kingdom. Since June 1999 Mr. Marks has lived in Shanghai, China. He speaks fluent Mandarin, French and English.  We believe that Mr. Marks’ experience as an independent director in Nasdaq/OTCBB listed Chinese companies brings valuable insight to the board in view of us being a public company subject to the reporting and internal controls requirements of the Securities Exchange Act and Sarbanes Oxley.  Additionally, his professional qualifications as a chartered accountant as well as his experience in finance, corporate governance and development and business operations will also have an important impact through his service on our board into our business operations, financing and corporate governance, and therefore qualify him as a director of the Company.





Chunyu Yin





Chunyu Yin has been a director of the Company since June 2009. Ms. Yin has a wealth of experience in China’s advertising and media industry. Between 1984 and 2002, Ms. Yin served as the general manager of China’s first state-owned cosmetics advertising company – Beijing Dabao Advertising Co. During those eighteen (18) years, the company’s annual sales increased from 40 million to 1.5 billion RMB. After she left Beijing Dabao Advertising Co. in 2002, she served as manager in several advertising companies. Currently, she is the Chief Executive Officer of East Prosperity International Advertising Company, and a teaching professor at Beijing Union University Advertising School.





All of the advertising companies in which Ms. Yin served as manager are listed on the Top 100 Advertising Companies List in China. The well-known clients she served, or is currently serving, include Daobao Cosmetics, Haier, Hisense Electric, Ariston Refrigerator, Shanxi Fen Wine, Red Eagle, Furong Wang, Tsingtao Beer, and Yanjing Beer. Ms. Yin has also achieved acknowledgement and recognition in the media industry. She participated in planning, producing and filming many important TV programs and dramas, including “Walk into Taiwan,” “China’s Economic Reports,” “1/2 Hour Economic Report,” “CCTV Young Singer Competition,” “Red Eagle Cinema” on Phoenix Channel, and the TV drama “The Prime Minister Liu Luoguo.”




2




In addition, Ms. Yin organized several large-scale events for Chinese government’s ministries and commissions and other international organizations: Putian Yanhuang Millennium, Dragon Board World Cup, China’s Trade Marks around the World, 2004 Miss Universe Finale, 2007 Miss Japan International Finale, Hong Kong’s Second International Mahjong Competitions.





Ms. Yin received her bachelor degree in Chinese from People’s University of China in 1979. We believe that Ms. Yin’s experience in the advertising and media industry, her services as key executive in the advertising companies and her recognition in the China media industry qualify her to service as a director of the Company.





Fucai Huang





Fucai Huang has been a director of the Company since June 2009. Mr. Huang, founder of Xiamen University Tourism Department, has served as a full-time professor at Xiamen University for 30 years. Currently, he is also the director of tourism management doctorate program of Xiamen University. Before he was appointed as the director of the doctorate program, he was in charge of the tourism management post-doctorate program and served as doctorate student advisor. Before he joined Xiamen University, between 1989 and 1998, he was the director of Xiamen University Tourism Management Planning and Research Institute, a part time professor at the Tourism Department of Beijing International Studies University, and a consultant to Fujian tourism development.





Mr. Huang is an expert among China’s tourism academics. Between March 2008 and March 2009, Mr. Huang was appointed by the China National Tourism Bureau to preside over the Open Tourism Market for Mainland Citizens’ Travel to Taiwan and Related Management Issues.  In 2006 and 2007, he was invited by the China National Tourism Bureau and Taiwan Office of CPC Central Committee to represent China’s tourism academics to draft monographs and to participate in Strait Economic Trade Forum. Between 2005 and 2006, Mr. Huang engaged in the planning, research, and modification of display contents of China Fujian-Taiwan Kinship Museum sponsored by the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee and Fujian Provincial Committee. China Fujian-Taiwan Kinship Museum became the new tourism landmark of the west coast of Taiwan Strait, and a popular tourist attraction in Quanzhou, Fujian.





Mr. Huang obtained his Bachelor Degree in History from Xiamen University in 1976. We believe that Mr. Huang’s strong academic background in the tourism management and development qualifies him to serve as a director of the Company.





Family Relationship





Minhua Chen and Yanling Fan are husband and wife.





Corporate Governance





Meetings and Board Committees





The Board of Directors held three meetings during 2012.  In fiscal year 2012, the Audit Committee held two meetings. Each director attended at least 75% of the Board of Directors and committee meetings of which he was a member during such time as he served as a director.  From time to time, the members of our Board of Directors act by unanimous written consent in accordance with Nevada law.  During the year ended December 31, 2012, our Board of Directors took action by unanimous consent on two (2) occasions.  We do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of our Board of Directors at our annual meetings of stockholders, but we encourage all members of our Board of Directors to attend such meetings.





Audit Committee





Our Board of Directors has a standing audit committee which carries out its responsibilities pursuant to the audit committee written charters, which are available on our website at www.yidacn.net.





The Audit Committee, which currently is comprised of Michael Marks, Chunyu Yin, and Fucai Huang, met two (2) times during 2012.  Each member of the Audit Committee is independent, as defined in the listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”).  The Audit Committee assists the Board in overseeing (i) our accounting and financial reporting processes and principles, (ii) our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting designed to promote compliance with generally accepted accounting principles and applicable laws and regulations, (iii) the preparation, presentation and integrity of our financial statements, and (iv) the administration of an audit of our annual financial statements by our independent auditor in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards.  The Board has determined that Mr. Michael Marks qualifies as an Audit Committee Financial Expert under applicable rules of the Commission and satisfies the financial literacy and experience requirements under the applicable Nasdaq standards.

Nominating and Compensation Committees





The Company does not have a nominating or compensation committee.  In 2009, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the adoption of the procedures for the selection of director nominees.  Pursuant to NASDAQ Rule 5605(e)(1), a majority of the independent directors shall recommend and select the director nominees.  Each of our directors participates in the consideration of director nominees.  In 2009, the Board of Directors of the Company also approved the adoption of the independent director oversight of Executive Officer compensation.  Pursuant to NASDAQ Rule 5605(d), all matters regarding executive officer compensation shall be submitted for approval or recommendation by a majority of the independent directors.  Our independent directors are Michael Marks, Chunyu Yin and Fucai Huang.





Independence of the Board of Directors





Our Board of Directors is currently composed of five (5) members. Michael Marks, Fucai Huang and Chunyu Yin qualify as independent directors in accordance with the published listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Nasdaq independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director nor any of his or her family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, as further required by Nasdaq rules, our Board of Directors has made an affirmative determination as to each independent director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In making these determinations, our directors reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities as they may relate to us and our management. Our directors hold office until their successors have been elected and qualified or their earlier death, resignation or removal.





The Board’s Role in Risk Management





The Board oversees that the assets of the Company are properly safeguarded, that the appropriate financial and other controls are maintained, and that the Company’s business is conducted wisely and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and proper governance. Included in these responsibilities is the Board of Director’s oversight of the various risks facing the Company. In this regard, the Board seeks to understand and oversee critical business risks. The Board does not view risk in isolation. Risks are considered in virtually every business decision and as part of the Company’s business strategy. The Board recognizes that it is neither possible nor prudent to eliminate all risk. Indeed, purposeful and appropriate risk-taking is essential for the Company to be competitive in its industry.





Effective risk oversight is an important priority of the Board.  The Board has implemented a risk governance framework to:





●
Understand critical risks in the Company’s business and strategy;●
Allocate responsibilities for risk oversight among the full Board;●
Evaluate the Company’s risk management process and see they are functioning adequately;●
Facilitate open communication between management and directors; and●
Foster an appropriate culture of integrity and risk awareness.





While the Board oversees risk management, Company’s management is charged with managing risk. The Company has robust internal processes and a strong internal control environment to identify and manage risks and to communicate with the Board. The Board and the Audit Committee monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the internal controls and the risk management program at least annually. Management communicates routinely with the Board, the Audit Committee and individual Directors on the significant risks identified and how they are being managed. Directors are free to communicate directly with senior management.





The Audit Committee plays significant role in overseeing risks related to the Company’s financial statements, the financial reporting process, accounting and legal matters. The Audit Committee oversees the internal audit function and the Company’s ethics program, including the Code of Conduct. The Audit Committee members meet separately with the Company’s financial controller and representatives of the independent auditing firm.





Vote Required and Board of Directors’ Recommendation





Assuming a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the Meeting, either in person or by proxy, is required for the election of a director. For purposes of the election of directors, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the result of the vote.





Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight





Our Chairman of the Board is also our Chief Executive Officer and President. We believe that by having this combined position, our Chief Executive Officer/Chairman serves as a bridge between management and the Board, ensuring that both act with a common purpose, and that the combined position facilitates our focus on both long- and short- term strategies.  Further, we believe that the advantages of having a Chief Executive Officer/Chairman with extensive knowledge of our company outweigh potential disadvantages.  Additionally, because three (3) of our five (5) current Board members have been deemed to be independent by our Board, we believe our board structure provides sufficient independent oversight of our management.





4




We administer our risk oversight function through our Audit Committee as well as through our Board as a whole. Our Audit Committee is empowered to appoint and oversee our independent registered public accounting firm, monitor the integrity of our financial reporting processes and systems of internal controls and provide an avenue of communication among our independent auditors, management, our internal auditing department and our Board.





Stockholder Communications





The Board welcomes communications from our stockholders, and maintains a process for stockholders to communicate with the Board. Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board may send a letter to Minhua Chen, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, at 28/F Yifa Building, No. 111 Wusi Road, Fuzhou, Fujian, P. R. China, 350003. The mailing envelope must contain a clear notation indicating that the enclosed letter is a “Stockholder-Board Communication.” All such letters should identify the author as a security holder. All such letters will be reviewed by Mr. Chen and submitted to the entire Board no later than the next regularly scheduled Board meeting.





Annual Meetings





We have no policy with respect to director attendance at annual meetings but we encourage every director and executive officer to attend our annual meetings. Our directors Minhua Chen, Yanling Fan and Michael Marks attended last year’s annual meeting.





Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance





Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities (“10% Stockholders”), to file with the Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. Officers, directors and 10% Stockholders are required by Commission regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.





Based solely on our review of the copies of such reports received by us, we believe that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and 10% Stockholders were complied with for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.





Code of Ethics





We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics for our directors, officers and employees, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.  In addition, we have adopted a supplemental code of ethics for our financial executives and all employees in our accounting department.  The text of our codes is posted on our Internet website at www.yidacn.net.  We intend to disclose any changes in or waivers from our codes of ethics that are required to be publicly disclosed by posting such information on our website or by filing with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K.





Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings





During the past ten (10) years, none of the directors or executive officers has been involved in any legal proceedings that are material to the evaluation of their ability or integrity.

Pension Benefits





We do not provide our named executive officers a defined benefit plan in connection with their retirement.





Nonqualified Defined Contribution and Other Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans





We do not provide our named executive officers any compensation pursuant to a nonqualified plan.





Severance and Change of Control Agreements





We do not have any agreements or arrangements providing for payments to an executive officer in connection with any termination of the officer's employment or change of control of our Company.





2009 Equity Incentive Plan





On August 10, 2009, with the written consent of our majority stockholders, our Board of Directors adopted the Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) The Incentive Plan gives us the ability to grant stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights (SARs), and other stock-based awards (collectively, “Awards”) to employees or consultants of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company and to non-employee members of our advisory board or our Board of Directors or the board of directors of any of our subsidiaries. Our Board of Directors believes that adoption of the Incentive Plan is in the best interests of our company and our stockholders because the ability to grant stock options and make other stock-based awards under the Incentive Plan is an important factor in attracting, stimulating and retaining qualified and distinguished personnel with proven ability and vision to serve as employees, officers, consultants or members of the Board of Directors or advisory board of our company and our subsidiaries, and to chart our course towards continued growth and financial success. Therefore, our Board of Directors believes the Incentive Plan will be a key component of our compensation program.





As of April 30, 2013, 178,000 shares of our common stock remained available for future grants under the Incentive Plan.





Director Compensation





Directors who also serve as employees of the Company do not receive payment for services as directors. The independent directors of the Board of Directors are responsible for reviewing and making decisions regarding all matters pertaining to fees and retainers paid to Directors of the Board. The independent directors may engage consultants or advisors in connection with their compensation review and analysis. The independent directors did not engage any consultants in 2012.





In making non-employee Director’s compensation decisions, the independent directors take various factors into consideration, including, but not limited to, the responsibilities of Directors generally, as well as committee chairs, and the forms of compensation paid to directors by comparable corporations.

Mr. Marks received more compensation than the other non-executive directors because he is serves as Chairman of the Audit Committee and has accepted additional responsibilities in that capacity.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.





Other than described below, to the best of our knowledge, there were no other related transactions with related persons in the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011:





Rental Expense





The Company incurred rental expenses of $386,188 and $153,716 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, including $9,518 and $9,282, respectively, paid to Xin Hengji Holding Company Limited, a related party. Xin Hengji Holding Company Limited is the 100% controlling shareholder of Fujian Xin Hengji Advertising Co., Ltd. Our chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Minhua Chen, is the controlling shareholder of Xin Hengji Holding Company Limited.





Television Contract





There was a contract in force for the period of August 1, 2003 to July 31, 2010 between Xin Hengji Holding Company Limited (“XHJ”) and Fujian Education Media Limited Company, a wholly state-owned company organized by the Fujian Education TV Station under the laws of the People’s Republic of China, (“FETV”) that provided for prepaid airtime to be purchased and utilized by the related party in return for payment of RMB 5,000,000 ($792,000) and purchase of suitable programming for the station in the amount of an additional RMB 5,000,000 ($792,000) (Educational Programming). XHJ is 80% owned by Chairman Minhua Chen and the other 20% of XHJ is owned by his mother.  A copy of the agreement between XHJ and FETV and the assignment agreement between XHJ and Fuzhou Fuyu are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.30 and 10.31, respectively.





XHJ assigned the rights of the above contract to the Company to manage the commercial air time of the TV station. Under the terms of the assignment, XHJ was responsible for paying RMB 5,000,000 ($792,000) to purchase the TV programs and is entitled to any revenue generated other than the commercial revenue. Any commercial revenue is the revenue generated from the sale of air time. The Company is responsible for paying for the air time in an amount equal to RMB 5,000,000 ($792,000), provided, however, if the Company purchased the TV programs and paid RMB 5,000,000 ($792,000) for the purchase of the TV programs, then the Company did not have to pay RMB 5,000,000 ($792,000) for the purchase of the air time. The amount paid over the air time of RMB 5,000,000 ($792,000) by the Company was the Company’s advertising costs incurred and charged as cost of sales against specific airtime segments and this will not be reimbursed by XHJ.  The above agreement expired on July 31, 2010 and was not renewed. Accordingly, after July 31, 2010, XHJ is no longer making payments to FETV. XHJ was originally a party to this agreement because at the time it was executed, August 1, 2003, China Yida and its subsidiaries were not incorporated or operating. However, after it was assigned to the Company, Fuzhou Fuyu Advertising Co., Ltd. conducted the advertising and other media activities. These activities were within the business scope of Fuyu’s business license.





In lieu of the agreement with XHJ, on July 30, 2010, Fuzhou Fuyu Advertising Co., Ltd. entered into a similar agreement with FETV, pursuant to which, FETV granted Fuyu exclusive management rights for the FETV station. This agreement is for a period of 5 years. From August 1, 2010 to July 31, 2011, Fuyu shall pay to FETV an annual payment of RMB 12,000,000 ($1,893,000). From August 1, 2011 to the end of the contract on July 31, 2015, annual payment to FETV will be increased by 20% for each year.





The revenue from FETV media business in 2011 was RMB 191.9 million ($29.7 million), and the cost associated with purchasing the programs was RMB 13.3 million ($2.1 million). There is no need to pay the contract fees to XHJ. The revenue from FETV media business in 2012 was RMB 104.1 million ($16.5 million), and the cost associated with purchasing the programs was RMB 11.4 million ($1.8 million) in 2012. XHJ no longer pays any amounts to FETV and has no income from the FETV business. XHJ, however, does generate other income from other businesses, unrelated to the listed company, including news broadcasts, education program broadcasting and English TV lectures.
