TSINGDA EEDU CORPORATION

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2012

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1- ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

Tsingda Century Investment Consultant of Education Co., Ltd. (“Tsingda Century”) was incorporated on October 23, 2003, in Beijing, the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). Beijing Tsingda Century Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“Tsingda Network”), the wholly owned subsidiary of Tsingda Century was incorporated in the PRC on February 14, 2004. Tsingda Century and its subsidiary provide high quality offline and online educational services for students ranging from six to eighteen years of age in the PRC. Tsingda eEDU Corporation (“Tsingda eEDU” or “the Company”, formerly “Compass Acquisition Corporation”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on September 27, 2006. The Company was originally organized as a “blank check” company to investigate and acquire a target company or business seeking the advantages of being a publicly held corporation.

 

Tsing Da Century Education Technology Co., Ltd. (“Tsingda Technology”) was incorporated on December 11, 2009, in the British Virgin Islands, to serve as the intermediate holding company.

 

Tsingda Century Beijing Management Consulting Co., Ltd. (“Tsingda Management”) was incorporated on November 26, 2007 and was serving as the wholly owned foreign enterprise (“WOFE”) of Tsingda Technology.

 

On April 22, 2010, Tsingda Century Training School (“Tsingda School”) was incorporated in Beijing, the PRC, and it is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tsingda Century.

 

On September 23, 2011, Family Baby Kindergarten (“Family Baby”) was incorporated in Beijing, the PRC, and it is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tsingda century.

 

As part of the restructuring, on April 26, 2010, Tsingda Management entered into a series of agreements with Tsingda Century and its shareholders, including an Operating Agreement, Proxy Agreement, Consulting Services Agreement, Equity Pledge Agreement and Option Agreement, which entitled Tsingda Management to receive substantially all of the economic benefits of Tsingda Century in consideration for consulting services provided by Tsingda Management to Tsingda Century. An Option Agreement allows Tsingda Management to acquire the shares of Tsingda Century when permitted by the PRC laws. The Proxy Agreement provides Tsingda Management with the voting rights of Tsingda Century’s shareholder and Equity Pledge Agreement pledges the shares in Tsingda Century to Tsingda Management without transferring legal ownership in Tsingda Century to Tsingda Management. Under the Consulting Services Agreement, Tsingda Management is the exclusive service provider, to Tsingda Century, for services, including general business operation, human resources, business development and Tsingda Century is obligated to make regular payments for such services provided. Under the Operating Agreement, Tsingda Century shall not conduct any transactions which may materially affect the assets, obligations, rights or the operations, without the written consent of Tsingda Management and Tsingda Century accepted Tsingda Management’s corporate policy provide by Tsingda Management in connection with Tsingda Century’s daily operations, financial management and the employment and dismissal of Tsingda Century’s employees. Through those agreements, Tsingda Management has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Tsingda Century and Tsingda Century became a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and is included in the consolidated group.

 

As all of the companies are under common control, this structure has been accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control and the financial statements have been prepared as if the reorganization had occurred retroactively.

 

On May 24, 2010, the Company and its controlling shareholders entered into a share exchange agreement (the Agreement) with Tsingda Technology and all of the shareholders of Tsingda Technology. Under the Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Tsingda Technology in exchange for 244,022.78 preferred shares of the Company. Each such share of preferred stock was convertible into 100 ordinary shares of the Company at such time as the number of authorized ordinary shares is increased. The transaction was closed in May 2010 and was accounted for as a reverse merger with a shell company and a recapitalization of Tsingda Technology. Tsingda eEDU Corporation is the accounting acquiree. Tsingda Technology is the accounting acquirer and the surviving entity.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The unaudited interim financial statements of Tsingda eEdu Corporation as of June 30, 2012 and for the three month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, such information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of such periods. The results of operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.

 

Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although the Company believes the disclosure is adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, (Tsingda Technology, and Tsingda Management), and Tsingda Century and its subsidiaries, Tsingda Network, Tsingda Century Training School and Family Baby. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of fixed assets; the allowance for doubtful accounts; the fair value determination of financial and equity instruments, the reliability of deferred tax assets; the recoverability of intangible asset and property, plant and equipment; and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

Online Courses

 

The Company provides online education programs to its franchisees, agents and individual customers. Revenue is realized through sales to franchisees and other agents of rights to conduct education services. The Company authorized the franchised locations to use its logo, all education programs and products and the Company receives a onetime licensing fee, annual management fee, and 20% of student generated revenue from the franchised location by providing them prepaid e-cards of 5 times the cash amount. All the mentioned fees are revenues or unearned revenues from the sale of e-cards. Revenue is recognized when the services are consummated when the e-cards are opened and used by the students to purchase online education courses and is reported net of business tax. The opening of cards is tracked by our IT system automatically and the revenue is proportionally recognized based on the progress of the e-cards usage.

 

Virtual Internet Classroom

 

The Company sold prepaid e-cards to the customers. Revenue is recognized until the services are consummated upon the e-cards are opened and used by the students to purchase online education courses and is reported net of business tax. The opening of cards is tracked by our IT system automatically and the revenue is proportionally recognized based on the progress of the e-cards usage.

 

Sales of Materials and Publications

 

The revenue is recognized upon the products are delivered to the customers.

 

Offline courses

 

Offline tutorial courses are provided by Tsingda Century Training School (“Tsingda School” or “Huanggang Experimental School”) and by the company owned learning centers. The revenue is recognized based on the progress of courses the students completed during the period.

 

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND TRANSACTIONS

 

The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC are measured using the Chinese currency Renminbi as the functional currency, while the Company’s reporting currency is the US dollar. Balance sheet accounts with exception of equity of the subsidiaries are translated at the prevailing exchange rate in effect at each period end, income statement accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange during the period, and equity accounts were stated at their historical exchange rate. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income (loss) for the respective periods. Translation adjustments are included in the accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income.

The exchange rates used for foreign currency translation were as follows (USD$1 = RMB):

 

Period Covered  Balance Sheet Date Rates   Average Rates 
         
Six months ended June 30, 2012   6.3249    6.3074 
Six months ended June 30, 2011   6.4716    6.5465 

 

SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The Company uses the “management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the chief executive officer of the Company who reviews financial information of separate operating segments based on US GAAP. The chief operating decision maker now reviews results analyzed by service line. This analysis is only presented at the revenue level with no allocation of direct or indirect costs. Consequently, the Company has determined that it has only one operating segment.

 

EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period.

PRC

On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress passed the new Enterprise Income Tax law (the “new EIT law”) which imposes a single income tax rate of 25% for most domestic enterprises and foreign investment enterprises. The new EIT law was effective as of January 1, 2008. The new EIT law provides a five-year transition period from its effective date for those enterprises which were established before March 16, 2007 and which were entitled to a preferential lower tax rate under the then effective tax laws or regulations, as well as grandfathering tax holidays. Further, according to the new EIT law, entities that qualify as “High and New Technology Enterprises” are entitled to the preferential EIT rate of 15%. Tsingda Century has received approval for the status as a “High and New Technology Enterprises”. The status is valid for three years starting from June 2009 and will be renewed after evaluation by relevant government authorities every three years. Further, on December 26, 2007, the PRC government passed the detailed implementing rules which allow enterprises to continue to enjoy their unexpired tax holiday under the previous income tax laws and rules. As a result, under the new EIT law, Tsingda Century’s tax rate are 15% for the calendar years from 2010 to 2012 and subject to renewal of the status of “High and New Technology Enterprises” after calendar year 2012; and Tsingda Network and Tsingda School’s tax rates are 25%. Tsingda Management’s tax rates are 22% and 24% for 2010 and 2011 and 25% thereafter.

COMPANY OVERVIEW

 

On May 24, 2010, Compass Acquisition Corporation and its controlling shareholders entered into a share exchange agreement (“Share Exchange Agreement”) with Tsing Da Century Education Technology Co. Ltd., a British Virgin Islands business company (“Tsingda Technology”), and its shareholders. On November 15, 2010, the Company’s shareholders approved the change of the Company’s name from “Compass Acquisition Corporation” to “Tsingda eEDU Corporation” and the name change is effective immediately following the shareholder’s approval.

 

Tsingda Technology owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Beijing Tsingda Century Management Consulting Ltd. (“Tsingda Management”), a wholly foreign owned enterprise incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). On April 26, 2010, Tsingda Management entered into a series of contractual agreements with Beijing Tsingda Century Investment Consultant of Education Co. Ltd (“Tsingda Education”), a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC, and its shareholders, in which Tsingda Management effectively assumed management of the business activities of Tsingda Education. Beijing Tsingda Century Network Technology Co. Ltd., a PRC company, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tsingda Education. The contractual arrangements are comprised of a series of agreements, including a Consulting Services Agreement, Operating Agreement, Proxy Agreement, and Option Agreement, through which Tsingda Management has the right to advise, consult, manage and operate Tsingda Education for a quarterly fee in the amount of 100% of Tsingda Education’s quarterly, after tax net profits. Additionally, Tsingda Education’s shareholders have pledged their rights, titles and equity interest in Tsingda Education as security for Tsingda Management to collect consulting and service fees through an Equity Pledge Agreement. In order to further reinforce Tsingda Management’s rights to control and operate Tsingda Education, Tsingda Education’s shareholders have granted Tsingda Management the exclusive right and option to acquire all of their equity interests in Tsingda Education through the Option Agreement. As all of the companies are under common control, this structure has been accounted for as a reorganization of entities and the financial statements have been prepared as if the reorganization had occurred retroactively.

Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we had revenues of $14,390,575 as compared to revenues of $8,861,189 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of approximately 62%. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we had revenues of $26,711,428 as compared to revenues of $17,090,536 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of approximately 56%. We experienced strong growth in our revenues during the second quarter ended June 30, 2012. This growth is due to an increase in prepaid card sales and the number of franchise locations for the Company’s offline businesses, along with the continued growth of its online learning platform. As of June 30, 2012, we had 3,153 franchise locations and 43 company owned locations, compared with 2,464 franchise locations and 32 company owned locations respectively as of June 30, 2011. In addition, online revenues for six months ended June 30, 2012 decreased to $2,701,978 from $2,929,007 due to the adjustment of the new online broadcasting system leading to the decrease of online lesson hours for the comparable period in 2011. We launched our online virtual classroom platform in September 2008. Beginning with the second quarter of 2012, the Company has slowed down the pace of expansion, strengthened the franchise management system by shutting down the less competitive stores. Specifically, the franchise stores which do not follow the Company’s franchise rules and/or whose operating space is less than 100 square meters will be gradually forced to shut down. In addition, some less competitive Company-owned stores were also shut down. But we continued to add new Company-owned stores in new cities. The Company introduced many competitive education products and learning materials to the franchise system during the second quarter of 2012. Such a new strategy is expected to increase the average consumption of each franchise store and attract more new qualified and competitive franchisees.

 

Expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred expenses, composed of selling and general and administrative expenses, of $13,189,435 compared with expenses of $8,528,706 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of approximately 55%. Moreover, for the three months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred expenses, composed of selling and general and administrative expenses, of $8,548,273 compared with expenses of $5,185,437 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of approximately 65%.

  

Selling expenses include salaries of our sales staff and rent of company owned learning centers, advertising, printing, logo manufacturing, transportation and others. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we had selling expenses of $5,544,594 as compared to $2,617,754 for the comparable period of last year, an increase of 112% or $2,926,840. In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, we had selling expenses of $8,577,301 as compared to $4,362,302 for the comparable period of last year, an increase of 97% or $4,214,999. The increase in selling expenses for the three and six months period ended June 30, 2012 were $2,926,840 and $4,214,999 respectively. The increase was primarily due to increased printing expenses and rent. The increase in printing and rent for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2012 accounted for 21% and 46% of the increase in selling expenses, respectively.

 

Key components of selling expenses for the three month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were:

-Salaries and wages increased by approximately 66% and 85% respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 from the comparable 2011 periods. The increase represents an increase in our sales personnel at our headquarters, consistent with our increased franchise sales and the establishment of two new business projects mentioned above.

 

-Advertising expenses increased by approximately 118% and 114% respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 from the comparable 2011 periods. The expenses are mainly attributable to the increase in printing costs for new Company-owned centers, Family Baby Clubs and virtual classrooms, as well as our ongoing promotional efforts to attract new franchisees.

 

-Printing expenses increased by approximately 146% and 78% respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 from the comparable 2011 periods. These expenses represent the costs for printing of Company newsletters and promotional materials related to the enhancement of our brand name and learning center channels.

 

-Shipping expenses decreased by approximately 49% and 61% respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 from the comparable 2011 periods as the outstanding balance of $130,852 remain unpaid as of June 30, 2012 because the vendor did not issue invoice to us.

-Rent increased by 347% and 134% respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 from the comparable 2011 periods. These expenses mainly come from the lease of the new Shijingshan Headquarter-Tsingda Century Plaza.

-The Company granted three executives 900,000 ordinary shares for no cost and 100,000 non-qualified stock options on April 29, 2011 pursuant to the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan.

The Company calculates the fair value of the shares and stock options granted at the grant date using the Black-Sholes option-pricing model and the total cost of $1,442,116 was recorded in the three and six month period ended June 30, 2011.

Net Income. For the reasons discussed above, we had net income for three and six months ended June 30, 2012 of $777,894 and $3,725,017, respectively, compared with $402,547 and $2,683,688 respectively for the corresponding periods in 2011, an increase of 93% and 39%, respectively.

 

Other Comprehensive Loss. We had other comprehensive loss of $248,480 and $196,069 respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 compared with other comprehensive income of $547,096 and $637,066 respectively during corresponding 2011 periods as a result of foreign currency translation loss.

 

Total Comprehensive Income. We had total comprehensive income of $529,414 and $3,528,948 respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of $949,643 and $3,320,754. The reason for the decrease is due to the various reasons stated above.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

As of June 30, 2012, we had working capital of $18,246,780 compared with working capital of $20,602,293 as of December 31, 2011. Changes in our working capital are summarized as follows:

   Increase in
 Working Capital
 
             
Total current assets  $39,220,281    37,501,727    1,718,554 
Total current liabilities   20,973,501    16,899,434    4,074,067 
Working Capital  $18,246,780    20,602,293    (2,355,513)

 

Our decrease of $2,355,513 in working capital is primarily attributable to the expansion of Company-owned locations and prepayment for online contents purchases of $2,123,354 and $1,250,000, respectively.

 

Our primary uses of cash have been for selling and marketing expenses, employee compensation, and working capital. The main sources of cash have been revenues from franchisees and from our Company owned locations.

 

We believe the following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:

     
  An increase in working capital requirements to finance the growth of our company owned locations,
     
  Addition of administrative and marketing personnel as the business grows,
     
  Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions for our franchising efforts in new and existing markets,
     
  Software development and the purchase of servers commensurate with student population growth, and
     
 

The cost of being a public company and the continued increase in costs due to governmental compliance activities.

 

The Company currently generates cash flow through operations which we believe will be sufficient to sustain current operations for at least the next twelve months.

 

Cash flows from operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rate. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

The net cash provided by operating activities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were $7,620,590 and $9,394,237 respectively, compared with 3,911,568 and $4,541,343 respectively, for the comparable periods in 2011. The increase in the operating cash inflows primarily reflects the revenue increase and expenses related to marketing and promotion activities.

 

The net cash consumed by investing activities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were $7,059,730 and $9,029,664 respectively, compared with $4,886,992 and $7,115,008 respectively for the comparable periods in 2011. The increase was primarily due to additions to the intangible assets which were primarily composed of purchase of online teaching software and materials and the establishment of new Company-owned locations.

  

The net cash provided by financing activities for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was zero compared with zero and $420,000 respectively for the comparable periods ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to the retrieval of $420,000 from the escrow account in the first half of 2011.

 

The effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents was a gain of $427,210 and $445,420 respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, compared with $168,915 and $13,415 respectively for the comparable periods in 2011.

 

The difference between the closing balance of cash and cash equivalents for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 is due to the reasons mentioned above.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements between us and any other entity that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, recovery of long-lived assets, income taxes, and the valuation of equity transactions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to our reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements

 

A summary of significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011. Management believes that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our operating results and financial condition. Other than those indicated in this quarterly report, there have been no material revisions to the critical accounting policies as filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 with the SEC on March 30, 2012.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

Pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46 (Revised), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - an Interpretation of ARB No. 51” (“FIN 46R”) we are required to include in our consolidated financial statements the financial statements of variable interest entities. FIN 46R requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the variable interest entity or is entitled to receive a majority of the variable interest entity’s residual returns. Variable interest entities are those entities in which we, through contractual arrangements, bear the risk of, and enjoy the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore we are the primary beneficiary of the entity.

 

Tsingda Education is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and we are the primary beneficiary. On April 26, 2010, we entered into agreements with Tsingda Education pursuant to which we shall receive a quarterly fee in an amount equal to Tsingda Education’s quarterly, after tax net profits. In accordance with these agreements, Tsingda Education shall pay consulting fees equal to 100% of its quarterly, after tax net profits to our wholly-owned subsidiary, Tsingda Management, and Tsingda Management shall supply the technology and administrative services needed to service Tsingda Education.

 

The accounts of Tsingda Education are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements pursuant to FIN 46R. As a VIE, Tsingda Education’s sales are included in our total sales, its income from operations is consolidated with ours, and our net income includes all of Tsingda Education’s net income. We do not have any non-controlling interest and accordingly, did not subtract any net income in calculating the net income attributable to us. Because of the contractual arrangements, we have pecuniary interest in Tsingda Education that requires consolidation of Tsingda Education’s financial statements with our financial statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

Management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Notwithstanding the conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer believe that the condensed consolidated financial statements and other information contained in this Quarterly Report present fairly, in all material respects, our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to our lack of formalized policies with respect to such disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no material changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act.
