HONG KONG, June 09, 2017 -- Sky Solar Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ:SKYS) (“Sky Solar” or “the Company”), a global developer, owner and operator of solar parks, today provided additional details on the Extraordinary General Meeting (“EGM”) to be held on June 19, 2017.  Additionally, the Company announced the appointment of an additional independent director.

Extraordinary General Meeting

On June 6, 2017 a notice of extraordinary general meeting was given by Mr. Weili Su, the Company’s then chairman of the board of directors.  That notice convened the meeting on June 19, 2017.  However, the Company was advised by its depositary bank that this meeting date gives insufficient time to properly notify all ADS holders and collect their voting instructions.  Accordingly, the June 19 meeting will be immediately adjourned with no business conducted.  The meeting will reconvene on July 28, 2017, with a notice period that should provide ADS holders sufficient time to issue and deliver their voting instructions to the depositary.  The record date for the new EGM will be July 6, 2017.

Appointment of A New Independent Director

Effective immediately, Mr. Qiang Zhan was appointed as an independent director of the Company, filling one of the seats vacated by the earlier resignations of Arthur Wong and Andrew Yan. 

Mr. Zhan is a proven leader with Global 500 European and American companies.  Mr. Zhan has extensive experience in senior financial roles with companies such as Polymer Group Inc. (now known as AVINTIV Inc.), Feidong Lighting Co., Philips China Investment Co., and Eaton-Vickers Hydraulics.  He also has meaningful experience in a variety of sales, marketing and operating roles.  Mr. Zhan earned an MBA degree from the State University of New York at Buffalo, and a Bachelor of Engineering degree from Nanjing Institute of Technology (now known as Southeast University).

As previously announced, the other vacated position of independent director was filled by Mr. Glen Wei.  Mr. Wei is a partner at Dentons, a global law firm, whose practice covers a variety of disciplines related to tax, cross-border investments, and mergers and acquisitions.  Mr. Wei is a member of China bar and California and New York bar, and is a CPA in both the United States (California) and China.
