On July 17, 2009, the Issuer, previously named "Ableauctions.com, Inc." and now renamed “SinoCoking Coal and Coke Chemical Industries, Inc.”, entered into a share exchange agreement (“Exchange Agreement”) with the Issuer’s significant shareholders Abdul Ladha and Hanifa Ladha, Top Favour Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation and holding company (“Top Favour”), and the shareholders of Top Favour, consisting of 12 individuals and 5 entities, who collectively held 100% of Top Favour’s issued and outstanding share capital.
At the closing of the Exchange Agreement on February 5, 2010, the Issuer issued an aggregate of 13,117,952 shares of Common Stock to the shareholders of Top Favour in exchange for all of the outstanding capital stock of Top Favour, and Top Favour became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer. Concurrently with the closing the Exchange Agreement, the Issuer also completed an equity financing (“Financing”) pursuant to which the Issuer issued and sold 1,180,892 shares of Common Stock, and warrants for the purchase of up to 590,446 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $12.00 per share, which brought the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer to 14,708,554. Also in connection with the Exchange Agreement, the Reporting Person’s husband stepped down as Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Director of the Issuer.
On February 5, 2010, the Issuer also effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of its Common Stock. After the reverse stock split, the Reporting Person owned 60,201 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock and 12,530 shares of Common Stock owned by the Ladha (1999) Family Trust, of which the Reporting Person is a beneficiary. Additionally, after the reverse stock split, the Reporting Person’s husband owned 126,347 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, an option to purchase 6,060 shares of Common Stock at a price of $96.00 per share and a warrant to purchase 36,973 shares of Common Stock at the price of $48.00 per share. Collectively, the Reporting Person was the beneficial owner of a total of 1.2% of the then issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer at the time of the reverse stock split.
Between May 12, 2010 and May 18, 2010, the Reporting Person sold all of her 60,201 shares of Common Stock, between April 21, 2010 and May 12, 2010, the Reporting Person’s husband sold all of his 126,347 shares of Common Stock, and between June 7, 2010 and June 8, 2010, the Ladha (1999) Family Trust sold all of its 12,530 shares of Common Stock in the open market, all as described in Item 5(c) below and Appendix I, attached hereto.
