At the rate of 3.0% per annum if the Company has not obtained a listing of its common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Capital Market by September 19, 2008 and maintained such listing continuously thereafter as long as the Notes are outstanding. At March 31, 2010, the Company had met this listing requirement.
|
|
•
|
At the rate of 1.0% for each 90-day period in which the Company has failed to comply with the registration obligations under the registration rights agreement. As of September 30, 2009, the Company had accrued additional interest totaling $560,000 pursuant to this provision, of which $280,000 has been paid. The noteholders have waived the right to require the additional interest from March 31, 2009 through September 30, 2009 and afterwards.
|
•
|
If the Company sells assets and does not reinvest the proceeds in its business within 180 days (270 days in the case of a sale of real property), to the extent that such proceeds not so reinvested exceed $5,000,000, the Company is required to offer the holders of the notes the right to have the Company use such excess proceed to purchase their notes at the principal amount plus accrued interest..
|
•
|
If there is a change of control, the Company is required to offer to repurchase the notes at 103% of the principal of the note, plus accrued interest. A change of control will occur if Bo Huang or Tianzhou Deng own less than 25% of the voting power of the Company’s voting stock or, with certain exceptions, a merger or consolidation or sale of substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets.
|
•
|
The Company is restricted from incurring additional debt unless, after giving effect to the borrowing, (i) the fixed charge coverage ratio would be greater than 2.0 to 1.0 through December 31, 2009 and 3.0 to 1.0 if the debt is incurred thereafter, and (ii) the leverage ratio would not exceed 6.0 to 1.0 through December 31, 2009 and 4.5 to 1.0 if the debt is incurred thereafter, provided, that Sinogas may continue to maintain debt under credit facilities of not more than $10,000,000, and may incur purchase money indebtedness. The fixed charge coverage ratio is the ratio of the Company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which is generally known as EBITDA, to consolidated interest expense, as defined. Leverage ratio means the ratio of outstanding debt to EBITDA, with the interest component being the consolidated interest expense, as defined.
|
•
|
The Company is subject to restriction in paying dividends, purchasing its own securities or those of its subsidiaries, prepaying subordinated debt, and making any investment other than any investments in itself and its subsidiaries engaged in the Company’s business and certain other permitted investments.
|
•
|
The Company is subject to restrictions on incurring liens.
|
•
|
The Company cannot enter into, or permit its subsidiaries to enter into, transactions with affiliates unless it is in writing, in the Company’s best interest and not less favorable to the Company than it could obtain from a non-affiliate in an arms’ length transaction, with any transaction involving more than $1,000,000 requiring audit committee approval and any transaction involving more than $5,000,000 requiring a written opinion from an independent financial advisor.
|
•
|
The Company shall maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, (i) a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 2.00 to 1.00 through December 31, 2009 and 3.0 to 1.0 thereafter, (ii) a leverage ratio of not more than 6.0 to 1.00 through December 31, 2009 and 4.5 to 1.0 thereafter, and (iii) a consolidated subsidiary debt to consolidated net tangible asset ratio of not more than 0.35. The noteholders agreed that they would not take any action to declare an event of default as long as the Company is in compliance with the modified covenants.
|
•
|
The Company shall make all payments of principal, interest and premium, if any, without withholding or deduction for taxes, and must offer to repurchase the notes if they are adversely affected by changes in tax laws that affect the payments to the holders.
|

|
·
|

|
·
|
The Company agreed to pay the convertible notes in the principal amount of $14 million in two installments, with an initial payment of $5 million being due ten days after the merger with Skywide becomes effective and the balance 30 days thereafter. Since the note holders would not be converting the notes, we would pay interest to provide the note holders with a yield to maturity of 13.8%, net of payments previously made.
|
·
|
The noteholders reduced our remaining obligation for liquidated damages for failure to register the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes to $280,000, which is payable by December 31, 2009. The payment was made on January 7, 2010.
|

|
The manufacture and installation of CNG vehicle and gas station equipment that is used in the transportation and storage of CNG and the operation of a CNG station. We provide these services for other companies that operate CNG stations.

▪
|
CNG station construction service, which includes the design of CNG station construction plans, construction of CNG stations, and installation of CNG station equipment and related systems. Because of our emergence into the CNG filling station business in 2006, we did not receive any CNG station construction service orders from the beginning of 2007. Our operating results in this segment reflects contracts which we entered into during or prior to the beginning of 2007. We anticipate that, at least in the near term, we will devote most, if not all, of our CNG construction business to the construction of our own CNG filling stations.

|
Our gross margin for the customized pressure containers decreased from 19% to 14%. Since these products are customized, with wide range of gross margin because of the variety of the products. We had to reduce our prices to meet competition during a period of general economic downturn without a reduction in our cost. As a result we sustained a significantly lower gross margin in this segment.
|
|
•
|
Our gross margin for the CNG station facilities and construction decreased from 43% to 23% because we had to reduce our prices to meet competition. Also, we began to design and sell other kinds of CNG station facilities with different gross margin with traditional CNG station facilites.
|
|
•
|
Our gross margin for the operation of our CNG stations decreased from 10% to 6%. The cost of natural gas increased approximately 10% and the freight costs (the transmission of the CNG to our stations), which are included in cost of sales, increased approximately 10%, which significantly affected the gross margin in this segment. The gross margin for this segment reflects the effects of price controls, which cover both the price at which we buy and the price at which we sell CNG.

|
Our gross margin for the customized pressure containers decreased from 27% to 8%. Since these products are customized, with wide range of gross margin because of the variety of the products. We had to reduce our prices to meet competition during a period of general economic downturn without a reduction in our cost. As a result we sustained a significantly lower gross margin in this segment.
|
|
•
|
Our gross margin for the CNG station facilities and construction decreased from 40% to 26% because we had to reduce our prices to meet competition. Also, the Company began to design and sell other kinds of CNG station facilities with different gross margin with traditional CNG station facilities.
|
|
•
|
Our gross margin for the operation of our CNG stations decreased from 15% to 7%. The cost of natural gas increased approximately 10% and the freight costs (the transmission of the CNG to our stations), which are included in cost of sales, increased approximately 10%, which significantly affected the gross margin in this segment. The gross margin for this segment reflects the effects of price controls, which cover both the price at which we buy and the price at which we sell CNG.

|
The noteholders waived compliance with the covenants at September 30, 2009 and through March 31, 2010.
|
▪
|
We repaid our 12% senior notes in the principal amount of $16 million prior to December 31, 2009.
|
▪
|
We agreed to pay the convertible notes in the principal amount of $14 million in two installments, with an initial payment of $5 million being due ten days after the merger with Skywide becomes effective and the balance 30 days thereafter. Since the note holders would not be converting the notes, we would pay interest to provide the note holders with a yield to maturity of 13.8%, net of payments previously made.
|
▪
|
The noteholders reduced our remaining obligation for liquidated damages for failure to register the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes to $280,000, which is payable by December 31, 2009. The payment was made on January 7, 2010.
|
▪
|
The provision that would have resulted in a further decrease in the conversion price of the convertible notes if we did not meet certain levels of net income was eliminated.
|
▪
|
The provisions of the indenture relating to the reduction in the conversion price of the convertible notes if we issue stock at a price, or issue convertible securities with a conversion or exercise price, that is less than the conversion price (presently $4.20 per share) were eliminated.

We cannot incur any debt unless, after giving effect to the borrowing, (i) the fixed charge coverage ratio would be greater than 3.5 to 1.0, and (ii) the leverage ratio would not exceed 3.75 to 1.00, provided, that Sinogas continue to maintain debt under credit facilities of not more than $10,000,000, and may incur purchase money indebtedness. The fixed charge coverage ratio is the ratio of our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which is generally known as EBITDA, to consolidated interest expense, as defined. Leverage ratio means the ratio of outstanding debt to EBITDA, with the interest component being the consolidated interest expense, as defined. At March 31, 2010, our fixed charge coverage ratio was negative 0.79 to 1.00, and our leverage ratio was negative 14.15 to 1.00.
|
|
•
|
We must maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, (i) a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 2.00 to 1.00 through December 31, 2009 and 3.0 to 1.00 thereafter, (ii) a leverage ratio of not more than 6.0 to 1.00 through December 31, 2009 and 4.5 to 1.00 thereafter, and (iii) a consolidated subsidiary debt to consolidated net tangible asset ratio of not more than 0.35 thereafter. The noteholders agreed that they would not take any action to declare an event of default as long as the Company is in compliance with the modified covenants. At March 31, 2010, our fixed charge coverage ratio was negative 0.79 to 1.00, and our leverage ratio was negative 14.15 to 1.00, and our consolidated subsidiary debt to consolidated net tangible asset ratio was 0.65 to 1.00.
|
|
•
|
Sinogas cannot incur debt under its credit facilities except to the extent that such debt does not exceed $10.0 million.
|
|
•
|

•
|
an insufficient complement of personnel in our corporate accounting and financial reporting function with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of US GAAP commensurate with our complex financial accounting and reporting requirements and materiality thresholds.
|
|
•
|
Lack of internal audit function - the monitoring function of internal control is not well performed due to insufficient resources. In addition, the scope and effectiveness of internal audit function have yet to be developed.
|
|
•
|
Insufficient or lack of written policies and procedures relating to periodic review of current policies and procedures and their implementation.
|
•
|
Reorganize and restructure our corporate accounting staff by:
|
||

|
revising the reporting structure and establishing clear roles, responsibilities, and accountability;
|
||
•
|
hiring additional technical accounting personnel to address our complex accounting and financial reporting requirements;
|
||

|
assessing the technical accounting capabilities at our subsidiaries to ensure the right complement of knowledge, skills, and training; and
|
||
