On April 5, 2016, Fuwei Films (Holdings) Co., Ltd., a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (the “Company”) announced that Mr. Xiuyong Zhang had given notice of his resignation as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and director, effective March 31, 2016. The Board of Directors of the Company accepted Mr. Zhang’s resignation on March 30, 2016 and appointed Mr. Benjie Dong to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer effective April 1, 2016. The resignation of Mr. Zhang was not due to any disagreements between Mr. Zhang and the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

  

Mr. Dong has been a director of Shandong SNTON Group Co., Ltd. (“SNTON Group”) since December 2012, and the vice president of SNTON Group since October 2005. From October 2005 to December 2012, Mr. Dong was the vice general manager and head of the finance department of SNTON Group and he was the finance minister of SNTON Group from May 2003 to October 2005. Prior to this, he was the vice finance minister of SNTON Group from June 2000 to May 2003. Mr. Dong joined SNTON Group in March 1996 as an accountant until June 2000. Prior to joining Shandong SNTON Group, he worked at Shandong Kenli County Oil Chemical Factory as an accountant from October 1995 to March 1996. Mr. Dong studied Business Management and received his postgraduate degree from the City University of Macau in 2009. From 2002 to 2005, he studied Economics and Management and received his bachelor degree from Shandong University of Technology. From 1997 to 1999, Mr. Dong studied Economics and Management and received his college degree from the Shandong Provincial Committee Party School. From 1993 to 1995, Mr. Dong studied at Dongying Television University where he obtained his degree in accounting.

 

The Company does not have an employment agreement with Mr. Dong. Other than the SNTON Group, there is no understanding or arrangement between Mr. Dong and any director, officer or any other person pursuant to which such person was appointed as a director or an officer of the Company. In May 2014, the Company borrowed RMB15,000,000 from SNTON Group, where Mr. Dong has been a director since December 2012 and vice president since October 2005, solely for the purpose of purchasing raw materials. The interest was calculated at the benchmark rate, plus an additional 20% of the said benchmark rate, for the loan of the same term announced by the People’s Bank of China. In March 2015, the Company entered into a supplemental agreement with SNTON Group pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay off the principle of this loan plus interest upon availability of new loans from banks or other financial institutions. In May 2015, SNTON Group provided the Company with an additional loan for the amount of RMB10,000,000.

  

A copy of the press release announcing resignation of Mr. Zhang and appointment of Mr. Dong as the new Chief Financial Officer of the Company is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
