ITEM 8.01      OTHER EVENTS.

 

Restructure of Yanyu

 

On March 25, 2014, the Registrant completed the change of shareholders in one of its affiliated entities, Beijing Yanyu Water Tech Co., Ltd. (“Yanyu”). The change in the ownership of Yanyu involved a decrease in the number of nominee shareholders from 18 nominee shareholders of Yanyu to 2.

 

The purpose for the change in the ownership structure of Yanyu is to consolidate and improve the Registrant's control over Yanyu. The new nominee shareholders are the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Registrant, Warren Zhao, and the Chief Financial Officer of the Registrant, Peter Dong.

 

The change of control involved the transfer from the 18 original nominee shareholders to the new nominee shareholders. Upon completion of this change of control, the prior control agreements between the 18 nominee shareholders and Tri-Tech (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (“WFOE”) were replaced with agreements dated as of March 25, 2014 by and between the new nominee shareholders and WFOE. Translations of such agreements will be filed by amendment to this current report on Form 8-K when available.

 

Inability to File Annual Report when Due

 

As a result of ongoing issues related to the determination of control of BSST, the Registrant advises shareholders that it anticipates being unable to file its annual report when due on March 31, 2014. In addition, due to the complexity of issues related to consolidation of BSST, the Registrant does not have a good-faith belief that it will be able to file the annual report within the time period allowed after filing a Form 12b-25. As a result, the registrant will not be filing a form 12b-25 on April 1, 2014 and instead is making use of this current report on Form 8-K to advise shareholders that such report will not be filed within the next 15 days. 

 

 
 

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
