On September 2, 2008, BVI-registered company Qiao Xing Universal Telephone, Inc. (XING) repurchased US$25 mln of convertible notes from the investors - DKR SoundShore Oasis Holding Fund Ltd and CEDAR DKR Holding Fund Ltd. Upon the investors' request, the BVI company made available and wired USD$25 mln to them, within two weeks as of the Redemption Date. By words of Mr. Wu Ruilin, Chairman of XING, despite of the redemption the company still has sufficient cash to cover current operations.
