On August 9, 2017, China Commercial Credit entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Sorghum.

Upon completion of the Acquisition, the Company will own 100% of Sorghum and its existing shareholders will retain an ownership interest of approximately 12% of the Company and the selling Sorghum equity holders will own approximately 88% of the Company.
Among other things, the Complaint alleges that, in an attempt to secure shareholder support for the Acquisition, defendants issued materially incomplete disclosures in a proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on August 14, 2017. The Complaint alleges that the Proxy Statement, which recommends that China Commercial Credit stockholders vote in favor of the Acquisition, omits material information necessary to enable shareholders to make an informed decision as to how to vote on the Acquisition.
