Update page 2 Hon. Katherine B. FOlTest 2 August 29, 2013
On April 12,2013, the Commission sent new Hague service packages to the Mol In late August, the Commission's Office of International Affairs sent an e-mail to the MoJ asking for a status report on the Commission's service request The MoJ responded as follows: "The case numbers for Zhao are 2013-sxs-583 and 584. The case number for Zhu is 2013-sxs-585. The cases are in the process of service by the court system. Generally it takes 4 to 6 months to finish. But it depends."
Given that the cases are "in the process of service" by Chinese authorities, we believe it is advisable to allow additional time for service to be effected on the defendants through the Hague process. The Commission does not plan to rely on the Hague process indefinitely and we propose to provide the Court with another update on service by December 15, 2013.

So........looks like we don't need to worry about a SEC action until at least December 15th.
