HONG KONG / ACCESSWIRE / August 10, 2017 / ZZLL Information Technology Inc. ("ZZLL" or the "Company,") (OTCQB: ZZLL), would like to provide the following update to its shareholders, with respect to a recent share price decline and trading activity.
It has come to the attention of ZZLL's management that a New Zealand financial service provider, Asia Finance Corporation Limited ("AFC" also known as London Capital NZ Ltd.) was placed into liquidation on May 23, 2017 by order of the High Court of New Zealand, Wellington Registry pursuant to Section 241(2)(c) of the Companies Act 1993. ZZLL recently received notification of this liquidation in a letter dated July 24, 2017.
Certain owners of ZZLL shares ("the Owners") previously deposited shares with AFC, who had opened trading accounts with a Canadian dealer in order to execute trades on behalf of AFC clients. These accounts were frozen by the British Columbia Securities Commission ("BCSC") due to AFC breaching Section 34(a) under the Securities Act, RSBC 1996, c.418 (persons who must be registered). AFC voluntarily filed to surrender its New Zealand registration in July 2015. A settlement was reached between the BCSC and AFC on July 17, 2016.
It was understood by ZZLL share Owners that their shares would be returned to them, and legal action was under taken to claim their shares. Indeed, in letters sent to the BCSC by AFC's counsel (Crengle Shreves & Ratner) on February 4, 2016 AFC clearly identified the Owners and supported their claims to the rightful return of their share holdings. The Owners counsel also sent letters to the BCSC on February 4, 2016 stating their claim and asking to have their securities transferred to them, and are now also stating their claim with the liquidators (Ecovis KGA Ltd). Nonetheless, it now appears the Owners share positions are being liquidated.
Sean Webster, CEO of ZZLL, stated, ''We are very disappointed with this liquidation of our shareholders stock, due to the behavior of certain individuals at AFC. It appears they have devastated many investors and companies around the globe with their illegal activities.'' He added, ''We will take all necessary actions to protect our shareholders and the Company, and look forward to updating the market with our Company's positive business activities in the near future.''
