The 2020 Annual Meeting date represents a change of more than 30 days from the anniversary of the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Taking into consideration the time and process for addressing any deficiencies in proposals that may be submitted, the Company has determined that July 31, 2020 should be the deadline for receipt of proposals pursuant to Rule 14a-8. In order to be considered timely, such proposals must be received in writing by the Company before the close of business on July 31, 2020 and delivered to: No. 8 Han Huang Road, Jiang’an District, Wuhan, China, Attention: Corporate Secretary. Such proposals will need to comply with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in the Company’s proxy materials, and may be omitted if not in compliance with applicable requirements.
