Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

As previously disclosed by China Housing & Land Development, Inc. (the “Company”) in a Form 8-K filed on May 22, 2015, the Company received a letter from Xi’an Baqiao New Development Zone Management Council on May 18, 2015 indicating that the land use right covering 29.7 acres (net) of land at Textile City had been rezoned from residential & commercial purposes to cultural, entertainment & commercial purposes (the “Rezoning”).

 

In light of the Rezoning, the Board of Directors of the Company (“Board”) retained consultants to analyze and advise on the feasibility of continuing to develop the Textile City land use right in compliance with the terms imposed under the Rezoning. Following a presentation by such consultants and due consideration of all relevant factors, the Board ultimately determined that the Textile City land use right is inconsistent with the Company’s future development strategy. On June 29, 2015, the Board formally adopted resolutions directing the Company to terminate the development of the Textile City land and to seek to mitigate its damages by pursuing a return of the deposits that were previously paid in connection with securing the Textile City land use right. While the Company will exercise all reasonable efforts to seek a return of such deposits, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in obtaining a return of all or any part of the deposits previously paid to secure the land use right.
