SHENZHEN, China--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nam Tai Property Inc. (OTC Expert Market: NTPIF) (“Nam Tai” or the “Company”) today announced that its reconstituted Board of Directors (the “Board”) and new management team have lawfully obtained the corporate chops and business licenses for all of the Company’s subsidiaries in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). This was achieved with the support of Nam Tai’s independent legal counsels and advisors led by Jack Law of Hui Zhong Law Firm. The Company is now in the process of registering its Chief Executive Officer, Yu Chunhua, as the Legal Representative for its subsidiaries with the Administration for Market Regulation of the PRC.
Mr. Yu commented:
“Our reconstituted Board and new leadership team are pleased to have obtained the corporate chops and business licenses in a lawful, orderly manner. We are now in a better position to build a broader local presence, invest more in our employees and uphold local stability. We look forward to working with all local constituents, including policymakers, to enact a smooth transition with the former management team and find long-term investment opportunities in Shenzhen and elsewhere across mainland China.”
The Company is working to promptly register Mr. Yu as the Legal Representative for its subsidiaries with the Administration for Market Regulation, but it cannot make assurances as to how long it will take to secure registration. Unfortunately, Kaisa Group Holdings Limited (collectively with its affiliates, “Kaisa”) is continuing its multi-year campaign to destabilize local stability and illegally seize control of Nam Tai’s assets. The registration of Mr. Yu as the Legal Representative is important to obtain access to all bank accounts, books and records, and resources of the Company’s subsidiaries.
