Explanatory Note
China Green Agriculture, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for its fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012 on an extended time line pursuant to the Hurricane Sandy Exemptive Orders (the “Relief Orders”) issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on November 14, 2012 (Release No. 68224) and the prior verbal communications with the Commission on the same subject. The Relief Orders stated that registrants who were directly or indirectly affected by Hurricane Sandy who were required to make certain filings with the Commission between October 29, 2012 and November 20, 2012, would be allowed to make such filings on or before November 21, 2012, and still remain in compliance with federal securities regulations. The storm and subsequent flooding commenced on October 29, 2012 was unprecedented in the affected area which have displaced the Company’s service providers including its legal counsel and Edgar filing agent located in New York City, severely disrupted their communications, transportations, power supply which resulted in delay in the completion of the review of the report and delay in the completion of the Edgar proof and XBRL tagging required for this filing. As a result, the Company, (i) was unable, in good faith, to file the report on a timely basis; (ii) availed itself of the filing extension granted under the Relief Orders; and (iii) files this report on November 19, 2012.

CHINA GREEN AGRICULTURE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
China Green Agriculture, Inc. (the “Company”), through its subsidiaries, is engaged in the research, development, production, distribution and sale of humic acid-based compound fertilizer, compound fertilizer, blended fertilizer, organic compound fertilizer, slow-release fertilizers, highly-concentrated water-soluble fertilizers and mixed organic-inorganic compound fertilizer and the development, production and distribution of agricultural products.
The Company’s corporate structure as of September 30, 2012 is set forth in the diagram below:
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principle of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Green New Jersey, Jinong, Jintai, Yuxing, Gufeng and Tianjuyuan. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those results.
Recent accounting pronouncements
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU”) 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which was issued to provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not significantly impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
F-4 |
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. ASU 2011-05 revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. The new guidance removes the presentation options in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 220, Comprehensive Income, and requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. The ASU does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12 which defers the requirement in ASU 2011-05 that companies present reclassification adjustments for each component of accumulated other comprehensive income in both net income and other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements. ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2011-05, as amended by ASU 2011-12, did not significantly impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which provides an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the current two-step test for goodwill impairment. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required. The revised standard is effective for the Company for its annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, which requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. An entity is required to adopt ASU 2011-11 for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 is not expected to significantly impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
On July 27, 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The ASU provides entities with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If an entity concludes that it is more than 50% likely that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is not impaired, no further analysis is required. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, it would be required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to measure the amount of actual impairment, if any, as currently required under US GAAP. The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
NOTE 3 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method.

NOTE 12 - TAXES PAYABLE
Enterprise Income Tax
Effective January 1, 2008, the new Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) law of the PRC replaced the existing tax laws for Domestic Enterprises (“DES”) and Foreign Invested Enterprises (“FIEs”). The new EIT rate of 25% replaced the 33% rate that was applicable to both DES and FIEs. The two year tax exemption and three year 50% tax reduction tax holiday for production-oriented FIEs was eliminated. Since January 1, 2008, Jinong became subject to income tax in China at a rate of 15% as a high-tech company, as a result of the expiration of its tax exemption on December 31, 2007. Jinong’s provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $1,754,200 and $2,463,511, respectively. Gufeng is subject to 25% EIT rate and thus it made provision for income taxes of $95,784 and $622,653 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Jintai and Yuxing have been exempt from paying income tax since its formation as it produces products which fall into the tax exemption list set out in the EIT. This exemption is expected to last as long as the applicable provisions of the EIT do not change.
Value-Added Tax
All of the Company’s fertilizer products that are produced and sold in the PRC were subject to a Chinese Value-Added Tax (VAT) of 13% of the gross sales price. On April 29, 2008, the PRC State of Administration of Taxation (SAT) released Notice #56, “ Exemption of VAT for Organic Fertilizer Products ”, which allows certain fertilizer products to be exempt from VAT beginning June 1, 2008. The Company submitted the application for exemption in May 2009, which was granted effective September 1, 2009, continuing through December 31, 2015. The VAT exemption applies to all agricultural products sold by Jintai and Yuxing, and all but a nominal amount of agricultural products sold by Jinong.

Overview
We are engaged in the research, development, production and sale of various types of fertilizers and agricultural products in the PRC through our wholly-owned Chinese subsidiaries, Jinong, Yuxing, Gufeng (including Gufeng’s subsidiary Tianjuyuan). Our primary business is fertilizer products, specifically humic-acid based compound fertilizer produced by Jinong and compound fertilizer, blended fertilizer, organic compound fertilizer, slow-release fertilizers, highly-concentrated water-soluble fertilizers and mixed organic-inorganic compound fertilizer produced by Gufeng. In addition, through Yuxing, we develop and produce agricultural products, such as top-grade fruits, vegetables, flowers and colored seedlings. For financial reporting purposes, our operations are organized into four business segments: fertilizer products (Jinong), fertilizer products (Gufeng), agricultural products production (Yuxing) and agricultural products production (Jintai).
Yuxing serves as a research and development base for our fertilizer products. The fertilizer business conducted by Jinong and Gufeng generated approximately 98.2%, and 97.7% of our total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Jintai had served as a research and development base for our fertilizer products. However, as reported in our previous annual and quarterly reports, we started to relocate Jintai to the facilities of Yuxin due to the deteriorated surrounding environment that caused the death and obsolescence of large amount of Jintai’s flowers and seedlings. As a result, Jintai has not been in operation since March 1, 2012, when the relocation commenced.
Fertilizer Products
As of September 30, 2012, we had developed and produced a total of 446 different fertilizer products in use, of which 129 were developed and produced by Jinong and 317 by Gufeng.
Below is a table that shows the metric tons of fertilizer sold by Jinong and Gufeng and the revenue per ton for the periods indicated:

For the three months ended September 30, 2012, we sold approximately 39,599 metric tons of fertilizer products, as compared to 81,720 metric tons for the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, Jinong sold approximately 17,449 metric tons of fertilizer products, as compared to 16,846 metric tons for the three months ended September 30, 2011. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, Gufeng sold approximately 22,150 metric tons of fertilizer products, as compared to 64,874 metric tons for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Our sales of fertilizer products to the top five provinces accounted for approximately 46.9% of our fertilizer revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2012; Specifically, the provinces and their respective percentage contributed to our fertilizer revenues were, Hebei (16.2 %), Shaanxi (9.0%), Heilongjiang(8.0%), Shandong (7.5%) and Beijing(6.1%).
As of September 30, 2012, we had a total of 966 distributors covering 22 provinces, four autonomous regions and three central government-controlled municipalities in China. Jinong had 779 distributors in China. Jinong’s sales are not dependent on any single distributor or any group of distributors. Its top five distributors accounted for 2.1% of Jinong’s fertilizer revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Gufeng had 187 distributors, including some large state-owned enterprises. Gufeng’s top five distributors accounted for 64.5% of its revenues with no single distributor accounting for more than 10% of our total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Agricultural Products
Through Yuxing, we develop, produce and sell high-quality flowers, green vegetables and fruits to local marketplaces and various horticulture and planting companies. We also use certain of Yuxing’s greenhouse facilities to conduct research and development activities for our fertilizer products. The three PRC provinces that accounted for 100% of our agricultural products revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2012 were Shaanxi (97.2%), Ningxia (2.0%) and Gansu (0.8%).
Recent Developments
New Products
During the three months ended September 30, 2012, Jinong launched three new fertilizer products, which are broad-spectrum fertilizer products. Jinong’s new products generated approximately $171,934, or 0.6% of Jinong’s fertilizer revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Jinong also added 21 new distributors for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Jinong’s new distributors accounted for approximately $1,303,863, or 4.7% of Jinong’s fertilizer revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, no revenue of Jinong was attributable to the new products distributed by its new distributors. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, Gufeng launched no new fertilizer product. Gufeng added two new distributors during the three months ended September 30, 2012, which accounted for approximately $96,332, or 0.9%, of Gufeng’s fertilizer revenues. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, no revenue of Gufeng was attributable to the new products distributed by its new distributors.

Jintai Relocation
As previously disclosed in our quarterly and annual reports, Jintai is located at the Economic and Technical Development Zone (the "Zone") in the metro area of the city of Xi'an. The Zone has been inhabited by a large and dense population and the periphery of Jintai has bristled with various industrial factories and utility plants in the latest years. The Zone’s concentrated industrial activities and dense population changed the micro bio environment for the growth of Jintai's agricultural products and disturbed Jintai’s normal fertilizer research and development. From June 2011 to March 2012, such changes caused the death and obsolescence of large amount of Jintai's flowers and seedlings.
As of June 2011, 4,852,236 number of Photinia fraseri were obsolete due to the air and water pollution in the surrounding area of Jintai. The total loss for this obsolescence incurred a write-off of $2,813,993, which equaled to the maintenance cost of Photinia fraseri, and was classified as general and administration expense in Jintai for the fiscal year June 30, 2011.
In addition, 2,028,508 and 1,532,876 number of Photinia fraseri became obsolete as of September 30 and December 31, 2011 respectively due to the exacerbating air and water pollution in the surrounding area of Jintai. The total loss for the obsolescence incurred write-offs of $288,307 and $957,407 respectively. The losses equaled to the maintenance cost of Photinia fraseri, and were classified as general and administration expense in Jintai for the quarter ended September 30 and December 31, 2011.
As of March 31, 2012, 54,682 number of butterfly orchids became obsolete due to disease. The total loss for the obsolescence incurred a write-off of $223,907, which equaled to the maintenance cost of butterfly orchids, and was classified as general and administration expense in Jintai as of March 31, 2012.
From March 2012, the Company commenced to relocate Jintai in the facilities of one of the Company’s other subsidiaries, Yuxin, located in Hu County, 18 kilometers southeast of Xi’an city. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, Jintai had no sales revenue due to relocation. The entire relocation process is expected to complete by the end of fiscal year 2013. We expect Jintai will likely remain unprofitable until the relocation gets completed. Further, the Company may consider merging the subsidiaries of Yuxing and Jintai together to reduce operating cost and streamline management at appropriate time in the future.

Net Sales
Total net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012 were $ 39,512,740, a decrease of $13,589,854, or 25.6%, from $53,102,594 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This decrease was largely due to the decrease in Gufeng’s net sales.
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, Jinong’s net sales increased $5,608,725, or 25.2%, to $27,850,976 from $22,242,251 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This increase was mainly attributable to the greater sales of humic acid fertilizer products including our liquid and powder fertilizers during this period as a result of our increased distributors and the aggressive marketing strategy.
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, net sales at Gufeng were $10,936,971, a decrease of $18,676,120, or 63.1%, from $29,613,091 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012 fell in the “export window” in which no special tariff tax applied, however, due to the lower demand on Nitrogen-Phosphorous elemented compound fertilizer by importing countries which is arising from the backlog of their imported compound fertilizers in previous quarters, which also led to lower-than-before profit margin over the export contracts, Gufeng had no export contract in the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Despite of that, Gufeng has been expanding and penetrating the domestic market particularly since the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012, during which period no revenue was generated from fertilizer exportation either due to special tariff tax levied by China authority or due to weak demand by importing countries. Net domestic sales at Gufeng for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $10,936,971, an increase of $1,759,028, or 19.2%, from $9,177,943 for the same period in 2011.
Jintai’s net sales decreased by $1,198,887, or 100.0%, to zero for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $1,198,887 for the same period in 2011. The decrease was attributable to Jintai’s relocation, which commenced on March 1, 2012 and is still on going. Therefore, Jintai did not generate any sales revenue since March 1, 2012.
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, Yuxing’s net sales were $724,793, an increase of $676,428, from $48, 365 during the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase was mainly attributable both to the strong sales of Yuxing’s top-grade flowers and the proxy sales of certain inventory from Jintai.
Cost of Goods Sold
Total cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $22,579,367, a decrease of $11,614,495, or 34.0%, from $34,193,862 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This decrease was proportional to the decrease in sales, which was mainly due to Gufeng’s decreased exported sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Cost of goods sold by Jinong for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $12,839,498, an increase of $4,729,368, or 58.3%, from $8,110,130 for the same period in 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to (i) the 110% increase in the cost of raw materials and (ii) 25.2% increases in sales of fertilizer products.
Cost of goods sold by Gufeng for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $9,189,762, a decrease of $16,079,908, or 63.6%, from $25,269,670 for the same period in 2011. The decrease was proportional to Gufeng’s sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Cost of goods sold by Jintai for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was zero, comparing to $748,830 for fiscal year 2011, because Jintai’s had no operation during the past quarter as a result of ongoing relocation.
For three months ended September 30, 2012, cost of goods sold by Yuxing was $550,107, an increase of $484,875, or 743.3%, from $65,232 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase was proportional to Yuxing’s sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Gross Profit
Total gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $1,975,359, or 10.4%, to $16,933,373, as compared to $18,908,732 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Gross profit margin was approximately 42.9% and 35.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Gross profit generated by Jinong increased by $879,357, or 6.2%, to $15,011,478 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $14,132,121 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Gross profit margin from Jinong’s sales was approximately 53.9% and 63.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, gross profit generated by Gufeng was $1,747,209, a decrease of $2,596,212, or 59.8%, from $4,343,421 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Gross profit margin from Gufeng’s sales was approximately 16.0% and 14.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
7 |
Gross profit from Jintai was zero for the three months ended September 30, 2012 due to its relocation since March 1, 2012, as compared to $450,057 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Gross profit margin from Jintai’s sales was approximately 37.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2011.
For the three months ended September 30, 2012, gross profit generated by Yuxing was $174,686, an increase of $191,553, from negative $16,867 with a gross profit margin of approximately 24.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Selling Expenses
Our selling expenses consisted primarily of salaries of sales personnel, advertising and promotion expenses, freight-out costs and related compensation. Selling expenses were $3,034,087, or 7.7%, of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $2,490,474, or 4.7% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $543,613, or 21.8%. The selling expenses of Gufeng were $224,509, or 2.1% of Gufeng’s net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $843,339, or 2.8% of Gufeng’s net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The selling expenses of Jinong for the three months ended September 30, 2012 were $2,792,434, or 10.0% of Jinong’s net sales, as compared to selling expenses of $1,634,926, or 7.4% of Jinong’s net sales in fiscal year 2011. Most of this increase was due to Jinong’s expanded marketing efforts and the increase in shipping costs.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consisted primarily of related salaries, rental expenses, business development, depreciation and travel expenses incurred by our general and administrative departments and legal and professional expenses including expenses incurred and accrued for certain litigations. General and administrative expenses were $2,875,942, or 7.3% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $3,138,695, or 5.9%, of net sales for the three months ended September 30 2011, a decrease of $263,678, or 8.4%. This decrease was primarily a result of the decrease of legal fees incurred in connection with certain litigations.
Total Other Income (Expenses)
Total other income (expense) consisted of income from subsidies received from the PRC government, interest income, interest expenses and bank charges. Total other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $311,960, as compared to total other income of $84,416 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase in expense of $396,376. The increase was mainly attributable to the $385,792 interest expense from Gufeng’s outstanding short-term loans.
Income Taxes
Jinong is subject to a preferred tax rate of 15% as a result of its business being classified as a High-Tech project under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (“EIT”) that became effective on January 1, 2008. Jinong incurred income tax expenses of $1,754,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $2,463,511 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $709,311, or 28.8%, which was primarily due to Jinong’s decreased operating income.
Gufeng, subject to a tax rate of 25%, incurred income tax expenses of $95,784 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $622,653 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $526,869, or 84.6%, which was primarily due to Gufeng’s decreased net sales.
Jintai has been exempt from paying income tax as its products fall into the tax exemption list set out in the EIT.
Yuxing has no income tax for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as a result of being exempted from paying income tax due to its products fall into the tax exemption list set out in the EIT, the same treatment as Jintai receives.
Net Income
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $8,861,400, a decrease of $1,870,236, or 17.4%, compared to $10,731,636 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The decrease was attributable to the decrease in gross profit, primarily Gufeng’s gross profit. Net income as a percentage of total net sales was approximately 22.4% and 20.2 % for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Discussion of Segment Profitability Measures
As of September 30, 2012, we were engaged in the following businesses: the production and sale of fertilizers through Jinong and Gufeng and the production and sale of high-quality agricultural products by Yuxing. For financial reporting purpose, our operations were organized into four main business segments based on locations and products: Jinong (fertilizer production), Gufeng (fertilizer production), Jintai (agricultural products production) and Yuxing (agricultural products production). Each of the segments has its own annual budget with regard to development, production and sales. Jintai is in process of combining with Yuxing.

Each of the four operating segments referenced above has separate and distinct general ledgers. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) makes decisions with respect to resources allocation and performance assessment upon receiving financial information, including revenue, gross margin, operating income and net income produced from the various general ledger systems; however, net income by segment is the principal benchmark to measure profit or loss adopted by the CODM.
For Jinong, the net income decreased 4.7% by $491,807 to $9,937,687 for the three month ended September 30, 2012 from $10,429,494 for the same period in 2011.
For Gufeng, the net income decreased 88.5% by $1,609,399 to $ 208,497 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $1,817,896 for the same period in 2011.
Jintai is located at the Economic and Technical Development Zone (the "Zone") in the metro area of the city of Xi'an. The Zone has been inhabited by a large and dense population and the periphery of Jintai has bristled with various industrial factories and utility plants in the latest years. The Zone’s concentrated industrial activities and dense population changed the micro bio environment for the growth of Jintai's agricultural products and disturbed Jintai’s normal fertilizer research and development. As of September 30, 2012, Jintai was still under the relocation process and there was no revenue from Jintai.
For Yuxing, the net income increased 36.6% by $14,762 to $55,093 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $40,331 for the same period in 2011.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity include cash from operations, borrowings from local commercial banks and net proceeds of offerings of our securities consummated in July 2009 and November/December 2009 (collectively the “Public Offerings”).
As of September 30, 2012, cash and cash equivalents were $74,197,824, an increase of $2,219,194, or 3.1%, from $71,978,630 as of June 30, 2012.
We intend to use some of the remaining net proceeds from the Public Offerings, as well as other working capital if required, to acquire new businesses, upgrade production lines and complete Yuxing’s new greenhouse facilities for agriculture products located on 88 acres of land in Hu County, 18 kilometers southeast of Xi’an city. We believe that we have sufficient cash on hand and positive projected cash flow from operations to support our business growth for the next twelve months to the extent we do not have further significant acquisitions or expansions. However, if events or circumstances occur and we do not meet our operating plan as expected, we may be required to seek additional capital and/or to reduce certain discretionary spending, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our business objectives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may seek additional financing as necessary for expansion purposes and when we believe market conditions are most advantageous, which may include additional debt and/or equity financings. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. Any equity financing may result in dilution to existing stockholders and any debt financing may include restrictive covenants.
The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:
Three months ended September 30, | ||||||||
2012 | 2011 | |||||||
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities | $ | 6,386,548 | $ | (2,008,969 | ) | |||

Cash and cash equivalents, ending balance | $ | 74,197,824 | $ | 71,333,911 |
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $6,386,548 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $8,395,517, or 418.0% from $2,008,969 which was used in operating activities for the same period in 2011. The increase was mainly attributable to the significantly decreased inventories by 99.0%, which contributed to the 143.9% cash flow increase comparing to the same period in 2011.
9 |
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $4,592,810, an increase of $3,673,144, or 399.4% from $919,666 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase was attributable to the purchases of plant, property and equipment, and increase in construction in progress.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 totaled $561,225 and $8,010,765, respectively, which was attributable to the loan proceeds.
As of September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012, our loans payable were as follows:
September 30, 2012 | June 30, 2012 | |||||||
Short term loans payable: | $ | 14,466,150 | $ | 13,931,280 | ||||
Total | $ | 14,466,150 | $ | 13,931,280 |
Accounts Receivable
We had accounts receivable of $67,699,174 as of September 30, 2012, as compared to $62,001,158 as of June 30, 2012, an increase of $5,698,016 or 9.2%, which is mainly attributable to the implementation of 180 days credit policy. In order to respond to the cash flow shortage caused by the tightening financing encountered by some of our distributors, the company launched such a policy since the third quarter of fiscal year 2012 enabling such distributors take full advantage of the 180-day credit terms.
Allowance for doubtful accounts in account receivable for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $977,433, an increase of $298,165, or 44% from $679,268 as of June 30, 2012. And the allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of accounts receivable was 1.4% for the three month ended September 30, 2012 and 1.1% as of June 30, 2012 respectively. The increase in the allowance of doubtful accounts were mainly due to the increase in the balance of accounts receivables and gradual aging in the balance of historical outstanding receivables.
Inventories
We had an inventory of $28,659,714 as of September 30, 2012, as compared to $28,602,684 as of June 30, 2012, an increase of $57,030, or 0.2%.
Advances to Suppliers
We had advances to suppliers of $14,985,197 as of September 30, 2012 as compared to $12,207,325 as of June 30, 2012, representing an increase of $2,777,872 or 22.8%. The increase in the amount of advances to suppliers is mainly due to Gufeng’s seasonal compound fertilizer business, which may result in carrying significant amounts of inventory and seasonal variations in working capital. To ensure our ability to deliver compound fertilizer to the distributor timely prior to the planting season, we need to have sufficient raw material in stock to feed the production. To build up the inventory, we typically make advance payment to the supplier to secure the supply of raw material of basic fertilizer. Our inventory level may fluctuate from time to time, depending how fast the raw material gets consumed and replenished during the production process, and how fast the finished goods get sold. The replenishment of raw material relies on the management’s estimate of numerous factors, including but not limited to, the raw material’s future price, and spot price along with their volatility, as well as the seasonal demand and future price of finished fertilizer products. Such estimate may not be accurate, and the purchase decision of raw materials based on the estimate can cause excessive inventories in slow sales and insufficient inventories in peak sales.
Accounts Payable
We had accounts payable of $5,594,344 as of September 30, 2012 as compared to $6,881,748 as of June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of $1,287,404, or 18.7%.
Unearned Revenue
We had unearned revenue of $2,452,464 as of September 30, 2012 as compared to $2,625,014 as of June 30, 2012, representing a decrease of $172,550, or 6.6%. The further decrease in unearned revenue is attributable to (i) the expanded credit sales to selected distributors since Jinong and Gufeng launched warehouse sales program, which is a customized strategy that requires less or few advanced deposit payment from the participating distributors which were selected based upon their overall business strength, credit worthiness and proven ability to develop local markets; (ii) the use of the 180-day credit policy. With offering participating distributors the advantageous sales credit in distributing the fertilizer products, the company concurrently manages more account receivables and less unearned revenue.
10 |
Tax Payable
We had taxes payable of $19,540,884 as of September 30, 2012 as compared to $17,675,389 as of June 30, 2012, representing an increase of $1,865,495, or 10.6%. This increase was mainly due to the increase in Jinong’s income tax, which resulted from Jinong’s increased revenue.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Our financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting policies which require management to make significant estimates and judgments. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” We believe that the following paragraphs reflect the more critical accounting policies that currently affect our financial condition and results of operations:
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Revenue recognition
Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, we have no other significant obligations and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.
Our revenue consists of invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (VAT). No product return or sales discount allowance is made as products delivered and accepted by customers are normally not returnable and sales discounts are normally not granted after products are delivered.
Cash and cash equivalents
For statement of cash flows purposes, we consider all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts receivable
Our policy is to maintain reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Any accounts receivable of Jinong and Gufeng that is outstanding for more than 180 days will be accounted as allowance for bad debts, and any accounts receivable of Yuxing that is outstanding for more than 90 days will be accounted as allowance for bad debts.
Segment reporting
FASB ASC 280, (previously SFAS No. 131, Segment Reporting) requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.
As of September 30, 2012, we were organized into four main business segments: Jinong (fertilizer production), Gufeng (fertilizer production), Jintai (agricultural products production) and Yuxing (agricultural products production). Jintai is in process of combining with Yuxing.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Disclosures About Market Risk
We may be exposed to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of business. Market risk generally represents the risk that losses may occur as a result of movements in interest rates and equity prices. We currently do not use financial instruments in the normal course of business that are subject to changes in financial market conditions.
Currency Fluctuations and Foreign Currency Risk
Substantially all of our revenues and expenses are denominated in RMB. However, we use the U.S. dollar for financial reporting purposes. Conversion of RMB into foreign currencies is regulated by the People’s Bank of China through a unified floating exchange rate system. Although the PRC government has stated its intention to support the value of RMB, there can be no assurance that such exchange rate will not again become volatile or that RMB will not devalue significantly against the U.S. dollar. Exchange rate fluctuations may adversely affect the value, in U.S. dollar terms, of our net assets and income derived from our operations in the PRC.
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Except for the U.S. holding companies, all of our consolidated revenues, consolidated costs and expenses, and our assets are denominated in RMB. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB. If the RMB depreciates against the U.S. dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our U.S. dollar financial statements will decline. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and shareholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in determining other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders’ equity. As of September 30, 2012, our accumulated other comprehensive income was $15.3 million. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk. The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. Since July 2005, the Renminbi has not been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the Renminbi may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future, PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the Renminbi exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.
Interest Rate Risk
We deposit surplus funds with Chinese banks earning daily interest. We do not invest in any instruments for trading purposes. All of our outstanding debt instruments carry fixed rates of interests. The amount of short-term debt outstanding as of September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012 was $14.5 million and $13.9 million, respectively. We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily with respect to our short-term bank loans. Although the interest rates, which are based on the banks’ prime rates with respect to our short-term loans are fixed for the terms of the loans, the terms are typically three to twelve months for short-term bank loans and interest rates are subject to change upon renewal. There were no material changes in interest rates for short-term bank loans renewed during the three months ended September 30, 2012. The original loan term on average is one year, and the remaining average life of the short term-loans is approximately eight months.
12 |
Management monitors the banks’ prime rates in conjunction with our cash requirements to determine the appropriate level of debt balances relative to other sources of funds. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to interest rate risk.
Credit Risk
We have not experienced significant credit risk, as most of our customers are long-term customers with superior payment records. Our receivables are monitored regularly by our credit managers.
Inflation Risk
Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our products and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
At the conclusion of the period ended September 30, 2012 we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and adequately designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allowed for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in internal controls.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On October 15, 2010, a class action lawsuit was filed against us and certain of our current and former officers in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada (the "Nevada Federal Court") on behalf of purchasers of our common stock between November 12, 2009 and September 1, 2010. On April 27, 2011, the court appointed the lead plaintiff and lead plaintiff’s counsel. On June 13, 2011, lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint, which adds several additional defendants and expands the class period to include purchasers who purchased our common stock between May 12, 2009 and January 4, 2011. The amended complaint alleges that we and certain of our current and former officers and directors violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by making material misstatements and omissions in our financial statements, securities offering documents, and related disclosures during the class period. The plaintiffs claim that such allegedly misleading statements inflated the price of our common stock and seek monetary damages in an amount to be determined at trial. Defendant’s motions were argued on October 2, 2012. On November 2, 2012, the Nevada Federal Court issued a decision dismissing the claims for violation of sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 as to all defendants and dismissing certain individual defendants from the complaint and allowing the claims for violations of section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to continue with respect to the Company and certain of the individual defendants.

Whether or not the Board has delegated administration, the Board shall have the final power to determine all questions of policy and expediency that may arise in the administration of the Plan.
(b) The Board shall have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:
(i) | To determine when and how rights to purchase stock of the Company shall be granted and the provisions of each offering of such rights (which need not be identical). |

If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board, subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. The Board may abolish the Committee at any time and revest in the Board the administration of the Plan. Any later references to “the Board” in this document are deemed to include the Committee.

(b) If an employee has more than one (1) right outstanding under the Plan, unless he or she otherwise indicates in agreements or notices delivered hereunder, a right with a lower exercise price (or an earlier-granted right if two (2) rights have identical exercise prices), shall be exercised to the fullest possible extent before a right with a higher exercise price (or a later-granted right if two (2) rights have identical exercise prices) shall be exercised.
5. Eligibility.
(a) Rights may be granted only to employees of the Company, who are not U.S. Persons or, as the Board or the Committee may designate as provided in Section 2(b), to employees of any Affiliate of the Company, who are not U.S. Persons. Except as provided in Section 5(b), an employee of the Company or any Affiliate shall not be eligible to be granted rights under the Plan unless, on the Offering Date, such employee has been in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate for such continuous period preceding such grant as the Board or the Committee may require.
2 |
(b) The Board or the Committee may provide that each person who, during the course of an Offering, first becomes an eligible employee of the Company or designated Affiliate will, on a date or dates specified in the Offering which coincides with the day on which such person becomes an eligible employee or occurs thereafter, receive a right under that Offering, which right shall thereafter be deemed to be a part of that Offering. Such right shall have the same characteristics as any rights originally granted under that Offering, as described herein, except that:
(i) the date on which such right is granted shall be the "Offering Date" of such right for all purposes, including determination of the exercise price of such right; |
(ii) the period of the Offering with respect to such right shall begin on its Offering Date and end coincident with the end of such Offering; and |
(iii) the Board or the Committee may provide that if such person first becomes an eligible employee within a specified period of time before the end of the Offering, he or she will not receive any right under that Offering. |
(c) Officers, who are not U.S. Persons of the Company and any designated Affiliate shall be eligible to participate in Offerings under the Plan.
6. Rights; Purchase Price.
3 |
(a) On each Offering Date, each eligible employee, pursuant to an Offering made under the Plan, shall be granted the right to purchase certain number of shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to (a) the number of shares purchasable with a percentage designated by the Board or the Committee not exceeding fifty percent (50%) of such employee's Earnings (as defined in Section 7(a)) during the period which begins on the Offering Date (or such later date as the Board or the Committee determines for a particular Offering) and ends on the date stated in the Offering, which date shall be no later than the end of the Offering; and (b) such additional number of shares as such employee may notify the Company that he or she wishes to purchase. Each eligible employee may elect to contribute cash to participate in such Offering in addition to or in lieu of payroll deduction. The Board or the Committee shall establish one (1) or more dates during an Offering (the "Purchase Date(s)") on which rights granted under the Plan shall be exercised and purchases of Common Stock carried out in accordance with such Offering.
(b) In connection with each Offering made under the Plan, the Board or the Committee may specify a maximum number of shares that may be purchased by any employee as well as a maximum aggregate number of shares that may be purchased by all eligible employees pursuant to such Offering. In addition, in connection with each Offering that contains more than one (1) Purchase Date, the Board or the Committee may specify a maximum aggregate number of shares which may be purchased by all eligible employees on any given Purchase Date under the Offering. If the aggregate purchase of shares upon exercise of rights granted under the Offering would exceed any such maximum aggregate number, the Board or the Committee shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares available in as nearly a uniform manner as shall be practicable and as it shall deem to be equitable.
(c) The purchase price of the stock acquired pursuant to rights granted under the Plan shall not be less than the fair market value of the stock on the Purchase Date.
7. Participation; Withdrawal; Termination.
(a) An eligible employee may become a participant in the Plan pursuant to an Offering by delivering an enrollment agreement to the Company within the time specified in the Offering, in such form as the Company provides. Each such agreement shall authorize payroll deductions of up to the maximum percentage specified by the Board or the Committee of such employee's Earnings during the Offering. An eligible employee, in addition to or in lieu of the payroll deduction, may elect to participate the Offering by contributing cash on the Purchase Date. "Earnings" is defined as an employee's regular salary or wages (including amounts thereof elected to be deferred by the employee, that would otherwise have been paid, under any arrangement established by the Company), and also, if determined by the Board or the Committee and set forth in the terms of the Offering, may include any or all of the following: (i) overtime pay, (ii) commissions, (iii) bonuses, incentive pay, profit sharing and other remuneration paid directly to the employee, and/or (iv) other items of remuneration not specifically excluded pursuant to the Plan. Earnings shall not include the cost of employee benefits paid for by the Company or an Affiliate, education or tuition reimbursements, imputed income arising under any group insurance or benefit program, traveling expenses, business and moving expense reimbursements, income received in connection with stock options, contributions made by the Company or an Affiliate under any employee benefit plan, and similar items of compensation, as determined by the Board or the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board or Committee may modify the definition of "Earnings" with respect to one or more Offerings as the Board or Committee determines appropriate. The payroll deductions made for each participant shall be credited to an account for such participant under the Plan and shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company. A participant may reduce (including to zero) or increase such payroll deductions, and an eligible employee may begin such payroll deductions, after the beginning of any Offering only as provided for in the Offering.
4 |
(b) At any time during an Offering, a participant may terminate his or her payroll deductions under the Plan and withdraw from the Offering by delivering to the Company a notice of withdrawal in such form as the Company provides. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of the Offering except as provided by the Board or the Committee in the Offering. Upon such withdrawal from the Offering by a participant, the Company shall distribute to such participant all of his or her accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to the extent, if any, such deductions have been used to acquire stock for the participant) under the Offering, without interest, and such participant's interest in that Offering shall be automatically terminated. A participant's withdrawal from an Offering will have no effect upon such participant's eligibility to participate in any other Offerings under the Plan but such participant will be required to deliver a new enrollment agreement in order to participate in subsequent Offerings under the Plan.
(c) Rights granted pursuant to any Offering under the Plan shall terminate immediately upon cessation of any participating employee's employment with the Company and any designated Affiliate, for any reason, and the Company shall distribute to such terminated employee all of his or her accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to the extent, if any, such deductions have been used to acquire stock for the terminated employee), under the Offering, without interest.
(d) Rights granted under the Plan shall not be transferable by a participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or by a beneficiary designation as provided in Section 13, and during a participant's lifetime, shall be exercisable only by such participant.
8. Exercise.
(a) On each Purchase Date specified in the relevant Offering, each participant's accumulated payroll deductions and other additional payments specifically provided for in the Offering (without any increase for interest) shall be applied to the purchase of whole shares of stock of the Company, up to the maximum number of shares permitted pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Offering, at the purchase price specified in the Offering. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of rights granted under the Plan. The amount, if any, of accumulated payroll deductions remaining in each participant's account after the purchase of shares which is less than the amount required to purchase one share of Common Stock on the final Purchase Date of an Offering shall be held in each such participant's account for the purchase of shares under the next Offering under the Plan, unless such participant withdraws from such next Offering, as provided in Section 7(b), or is no longer eligible to be granted rights under the Plan, as provided in Section 5, in which case such amount shall be distributed to the participant after such final Purchase Date, without interest.
5 |
(b) No rights granted under the Plan may be exercised to any extent unless the shares to be issued upon such exercise under the Plan (including rights granted thereunder) are covered by an effective registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and the Plan is in material compliance with all applicable state, foreign and other securities and other laws applicable to the Plan. If on a Purchase Date in any Offering hereunder the Plan is not so registered or in such compliance, no rights granted under the Plan or any Offering shall be exercised on such Purchase Date, and the Purchase Date shall be delayed until the Plan is subject to such an effective registration statement and such compliance, except that (i) there is an available exemption for the exercise of the purchase right, and/or (ii) the Purchase Date shall not be delayed more than 5 years from the Offering Date. If on the Purchase Date of any Offering hereunder, as delayed to the maximum extent permissible, the Plan is not registered and in such compliance, no rights granted under the Plan or any Offering shall be exercised and all payroll deductions accumulated during the Offering (reduced to the extent, if any, such deductions have been used to acquire stock) shall be distributed to the participants, without interest.
9. Use of Proceeds from Stock.
Proceeds from the sale of stock pursuant to rights granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company.
10. Rights as a Stockholder.
A participant shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares subject to rights granted under the Plan unless and until the participant's shareholdings acquired upon exercise of rights under the Plan are recorded in the books of the Company (or its transfer agent).
11. Adjustments upon Changes in Stock.
(a) If any change is made in the stock subject to the Plan, or subject to any rights granted under the Plan (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company), the Plan and outstanding rights may, in the sole discretion of the Board or the Committee, be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of shares subject to the Plan and the class(es) and number of shares and price per share of stock subject to outstanding rights. Such adjustments, if any, shall be made by the Board or the Committee, the determination of which shall be final, binding and conclusive.
(b) In the event of: (1) a dissolution or liquidation of the Company; (2) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (3) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation; (4) a reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the shares of the Company's Common Stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise; (5) the acquisition by any person, entity or group within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or any comparable successor provisions (excluding any employee benefit plan, or related trust, sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company) of the beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or comparable successor rule) of securities of the Company representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote in the election of directors; or (6) the individuals who, as of the date of the adoption of this Plan, are members of the Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least fifty percent (50%) of the Board; then the Incumbent Board, in its sole discretion, may take any action or arrange for the taking of any action among the following: (i) any surviving or acquiring corporation may assume outstanding rights or substitute similar rights for those under the Plan, (ii) such rights may continue in full force and effect, or (iii) all participants' accumulated payroll deductions may be used to purchase Common Stock immediately prior to or within a reasonable period of time following the transaction described above and the participants' rights under the ongoing Offering terminated. For purposes of this Section 11, if the election, or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders, of a new director was approved by a vote of at least fifty percent (50%) of the members of the Board then comprising the Incumbent Board, such new director shall upon his or her election be considered a member of the Incumbent Board.
6 |
12. Amendment of the Plan or Offerings.
(a) The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend the Plan or the terms of one or more Offerings. Except as provided in Section 11 relating to adjustments upon changes in stock, however, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the adoption of the amendment, if the amendment will:
(i) | Increase the number of shares reserved for rights under the Plan; |
(ii) | Modify the provisions as to eligibility for participation in the Plan or an Offering (to the extent such modification requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to obtain employee stock purchase plan treatment under Section 423 of the Code (or any comparable successor provisions)); or |
(iii) | Modify the Plan or an Offering in any other way if such modification requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to obtain employee stock purchase plan treatment under Section 423 of the Code. |
(b) The Board may, in its sole discretion, submit any amendment to the Plan or an Offering for stockholder approval.
7 |
13. Designation of Beneficiary.
(a) A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if applicable, from the participant's account under the Plan in the event of such participant's death subsequent to the end of an Offering but prior to delivery to the participant of such shares and cash. In addition, a participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the participant's account under the Plan in the event of such participant's death during an Offering.
(b) Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the participant at any time by written notice in the form prescribed by the Company. In the event of the death of a participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living (or if an entity, is otherwise in existence) at the time of such participant's death, the Company shall deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its sole discretion, may deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one (1) or more dependents or relatives of the participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may determine.
14. Termination or Suspension of the Plan.
(a) The Board in its discretion, may suspend or terminate the Plan and/or any Offering at any time. The Plan shall automatically terminate if all the shares subject to the Plan pursuant to Section 3(a) are issued. No rights may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.
(b) If the Plan or an Offering is terminated, on the date of such termination all outstanding options and rights granted pursuant to the Plan, or the Offering, as applicable, will immediately expire and the Company shall distribute to each affected employee all of his or her accumulated payroll deductions (reduced to the extent, if any, such deductions have been used to acquire stock for the affected employee), without interest; provided, however, that the Board may, in its sole discretion, provide that the date of termination of the Plan or an Offering shall constitute a Purchase Date under, in the case of (a) Plan termination, any or all outstanding Offerings, and (b) in the case of an Offering termination, the applicable Offering.
15. Effective Date of Plan.
The Plan shall become effective on the day on which the Board approves the Plan (the "Effective Date").
16. Choice of Law.

All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Plan shall be governed by the law of the State of New York, without regard to such state's conflict of laws rules.
