		(1) “FOR” the two Class II nominees named in the attached proxy statement to serve on the Board of Directors;
		(2) “FOR” the proposed issuance to the Vessel Seller of more than 20% of our issued and outstanding common stock as of April 9, 2015, in connection with the Vessel acquisition;
		(3) “FOR” any deemed “change of control” of the Company under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b) resulting from the potential issuance to the Vessel Seller of up to a total of 3,362,162 shares in connection with the Vessel acquisition;
		(4) “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Friedman LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015; and
		(5) “FOR” an advisory, nonbinding resolution to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.
What shares can I vote?		You may vote shares of our common stock owned by you as of the close of business on April 9, 2015 (the “Record Date”). Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote. As of April 9, 2015, we had 6,200,841 shares of common stock outstanding.
How do I vote before the meeting?		If you are a registered shareholder, meaning that you hold your shares in certificate form, you have three voting options:
		(1) By Internet, which we encourage if you have Internet access, at the address shown on your proxy card;
		(2) By telephone, using any touch-tone telephone to transmit your voting instructions by calling the number specified on your proxy card; or
		(3) By mail, by completing, signing and returning your proxy card.
		If you hold your shares through an account with a bank or broker, your ability to vote by the Internet depends on their voting procedures. Please follow the directions that your bank or broker provides.
May I vote at the annual meeting?		If you are a registered shareholder, you may vote your shares owned by you as or April 9, 2015 at the annual meeting if you attend in person. If you hold your shares through an account with a bank or broker, please follow the directions provided to you by your bank or broker. If you wish to vote in person at the meeting, please contact your bank or broker to learn the procedures necessary to allow you to vote your shares in person. Even if you plan to attend the meeting, we encourage you to vote your shares by proxy. You may vote by proxy through the Internet, by telephone or by mail.


Can I change my mind after I return my proxy?		You may change your vote at any time before the polls close at the conclusion of voting at the meeting. You may do this by (1) signing another proxy card with a later date and returning it to us before the meeting, (2) voting again over the Internet prior to 11:59 p.m., New York time, on May 27, 2015, (3) voting again via the telephone prior to 11:59 p.m., New York time, on May 27, 2015, or (4) voting at the meeting if you are a registered shareholder or have obtained a legal proxy from your bank or broker.
What if I return my proxy card but do not provide voting instructions?		Proxies that are signed and returned but do not contain instructions will be voted in favor of all proposals and in accordance with the best judgment of the named proxies on any other matters properly brought before the meeting.
What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card or instruction form?		It indicates that your shares are registered differently and are in more than one account. To ensure that all shares are voted, please either vote each account by telephone or on the Internet, or sign and return all proxy cards. We encourage you to register all your accounts in the same name and address. Those holding shares through a bank or broker should contact your bank or broker and request consolidation.
Will my shares be voted if I do not provide my proxy or instruction form?		If you are a registered shareholder and do not provide a proxy, you must attend the meeting in order to vote your shares. If you hold shares through an account with a bank or broker, your shares may be voted even if you do not provide voting instructions on your instruction form. Brokerage firms have the authority to vote shares for which their customers do not provide voting instructions on certain routine matters. The ratification of Friedman LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 is considered a routine matter for which brokerage firms may vote without specific instructions. The other matters are not considered routine matters for which brokerage firms may vote without specific instructions. When a proposal is not a routine matter and the brokerage firm has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares with respect to that proposal, the brokerage firm cannot vote the shares on that proposal. Shares that a broker is not authorized to vote are counted as “broker non-votes.”
How can I attend the meeting?		The meeting is open to all holders of our common stock as of April 9, 2015.
May shareholders ask questions at the annual meeting?		Yes. Representatives of the Company will answer questions of general interest at the end of the meeting.
How many votes must be present to hold the annual meeting?		In order for us to conduct our annual meeting, a majority of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of April 9, 2015 must be present in person or by proxy at the annual meeting. This is referred to as a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of establishing a quorum at the meeting. Your shares are counted as present at the meeting if you attend the meeting and vote in person or if you properly return a proxy by Internet, telephone or mail.
Where can I find a copy of the proxy materials?		A copy of the proxy materials is available online at http://www.edocumentview.com/SINO.


How many votes are needed to approve the Company’s proposals?		*Proposal 1.* The nominees receiving the highest number of “For” votes will be elected as directors. This number is called a plurality. Shares not voted will have no impact on the election of directors. The proxy given will be voted “For” the nominee for director unless a properly executed proxy card is marked “Withhold” as to a particular nominee for director.
		*Proposal 2.* The approval, under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(a), of the issuance to the Vessel Seller of more than 20% of our issued and outstanding common stock as of April 9, 2015, in connection with our proposed acquisition of the Vessel pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, which in connection with such acquisition, and, in addition to the 1.2 million shares we issued to the Vessel Seller on April 10, 2015 as payment of the First Installment (as defined in the proxy statement), of the purchase price of the Vessel acquisition, we may, subject to shareholder approval of Proposal 2 and Proposal 3 in the attached proxy statement and agreement between us and the Vessel Seller, issue up to an additional $4.0 million of our shares of common stock at a price of $1.85 per share (2,162,162 additional shares) to the Vessel Seller as part of the remaining purchase price of the Vessel, requires that a vote “For” the proposal be cast by a majority of the votes cast at the meeting.
		*Proposal 3.* The approval, under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b) of any deemed “change of control” of the Company under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b) resulting from the possible issuance to the Vessel Seller of up to a total of 3,362,162 shares in the Vessel acquisition, requires that a vote “For” the proposal be cast by a majority of the votes cast at the meeting.
		*Proposal 4.* The ratification of the appointment of Friedman LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 requires that a majority of the votes cast at the meeting be voted “For” the proposal, excluding properly executed proxy card marked “Abstain,” which will not be voted or counted for purposes other than quorum.
		*Proposal 5.* The advisory vote to approve executive officer compensation is advisory in nature and not binding on our Company. A vote “For” the proposal by a majority of the votes cast at the meeting would be considered an advisory approval of the proposed executive officer compensation. If a majority of shares do not vote in favor of the proposal, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors will carefully consider the outcome when making future compensation decisions.

CERTAIN OTHER BOARD INFORMATION


Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings		To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, or has been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past ten years that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities or commodities laws, any laws respecting financial institutions or insurance companies, any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud in connection with any business entity or been subject to any disciplinary sanctions or orders imposed by a stock, commodities or derivatives exchange or other self-regulatory organization, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement. None of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Board Leadership Structure		Mr. Lei Cao currently holds both the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. These two positions have not been consolidated into one position; Mr. Cao simply holds both positions at this time. The Board of Directors believes that Mr. Cao’s service as both Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Mr. Cao possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges facing the Company and its business and is thus best positioned to develop agendas that ensure that the Board’s time and attention are focused on the most critical matters. His combined role enables decisive leadership, ensures clear accountability, and enhances the Company’s ability to communicate its message and strategy clearly and consistently to the Company’s shareholders, employees, customers, vendors and suppliers.
		We do not have a lead independent director because of the foregoing reasons and also because we believe our independent directors are encouraged to freely voice their opinions on a relatively small company board. We believe this leadership structure is appropriate because we are a smaller reporting company as such we deem it appropriate to be able to benefit from the guidance of Mr. Cao as both our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board.
Risk Oversight		Our Board of Directors plays a significant role in our risk oversight. The Board of Directors makes all relevant Company decisions. As such, it is important for us to have our Chief Executive Officer serve on the Board as he plays a key role in the risk oversight of the Company. As a smaller reporting company with a small board of directors, we believe it is appropriate to have the involvement and input of all of our directors in risk oversight matters.

For additional information regarding, among other related items, our Board of Directors, Corporate Governance, the Compensation Committee, the Audit Committee and the Corporate Governance Committee and compensation of our named executive officers please see page 18.

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE ELECTION
OF THE TWO (2) CLASS II NOMINEES TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

		(i) $2.22 million was paid on April 10, 2015 (the “First Installment”), by us issuing to the Vessel Seller 1.2 million shares of our restricted common stock, which 1.2 million shares represents approximately 19.35% of our issued and outstanding common stock as of April 9, 2015;
		(ii) $5.5 million will be paid by us to the Vessel Seller through cash, or, in our discretion, cash and/or shares of our restricted common stock at the closing of our acquisition of the Vessel (the “Second Installment”), which closing is subject to a number of closing conditions which include and must be satisfied by the Vessel Seller or waived by us, that we obtain, on or prior to June 30, 2015, the necessary funds (whether through the sale of our securities, through loans, through our then available cash and/or cash equivalents or any combination thereof) to pay the cash portion of the Vessel purchase price necessary to complete the Vessel acquisition, we take physical delivery of the Vessel and obtain from the Vessel Seller clean and unencumbered title to the Vessel, we complete our inspection of the Vessel and the Vessel is in compliance with classification standards, and we obtain all of the permits, licenses and consents to the acquisition and operation of the Vessel; and


		(iii) the remaining $2.78 million balance of the purchase price (which is subject to adjustments as provided in the Asset Purchase Agreement for defects discovered during our inspection, trial run and for a period of 12 months following the closing of the Vessel acquisition) in cash, additional shares of our restricted common stock and/or a combination thereof, as agreed to by the parties (the “Final Installment”).
		To satisfy a portion of the remaining $8.28 million purchase price owed by us to the Vessel Seller we may in our discretion, but subject to shareholder approval of this Proposal 2 and Proposal 3 set forth below, and agreement between us and the Vessel Seller, issue up to an additional $4.0 million of our shares at a price of $1.85 per share (2,162,162 additional shares) to the Vessel Seller. The aggregate number of shares of common stock we may issue to the Vessel Seller as a portion of the Vessel purchase price, however, shall not exceed a in the aggregate a total of 3,362,162 shares (which includes the 1.2 million shares issued to the Vessel Seller on April 10, 2015 as payment of the First Installment pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement).
		In the event the above mentioned and/or other conditions to closing have not been satisfied by the Vessel Seller or waived by us, we may elect to (x) not close, in which event the Vessel Seller will be required to immediately pay to us $2.22 million in cash and we will have a lien on and a security interest in the Vessel to secure payment of such amount by the Vessel Seller to us, or (y) close on the acquisition of the Vessel and reduce the purchase price of the Vessel in such amount as agreed to between us and the Vessel Seller in order for us to repair any defects to the Vessel and have the Vessel conform to required industry standards, as the case may be. In no event, however, will the Vessel Seller be obligated to return to us any of the 1.2 million shares we previously issued to it.
Why does the Company need Shareholder Approval?		Our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market and, as a result, we are subject to the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Because the issuance of all of the additional 2,162,162 shares of our common stock to the Vessel Seller together with the 1.2 million shares issued on April 10, 2015 to the Vessel Seller as the First Installment, would result in us issuing greater than 20% of our issued an outstanding common stock as of April 9, 2015 to the Vessel Seller, we are required pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(a) to obtain shareholder approval prior to the issuance to the Vessel Seller of any of such 2,162,162 additional shares of common stock to maintain our listing of our common stock on NASDAQ Capital Market.
		NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(a) requires shareholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with the acquisition of another company (which includes asset acquisitions) if such securities are not issued in a public offering and (A) have, or will have upon issuance, voting power equal to or in excess of 20% of the voting power outstanding before the issuance of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock); or (B) the number of shares of common stock to be issued is or will be equal to or in excess of 20% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding before the issuance of the stock or securities (the “20% Rule”).


		As of the Record Date, April 9, 2015, we had issued and outstanding 6,200,841 shares of common stock. In connection with our proposed acquisition of the Vessel, we may issue to the Vessel Seller up to a total of 3,362,162 shares of our common stock (of which we previously issued 1.2 million to the Vessel Seller in the First Installment pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement), which if all such 3,362,162 shares were issued to the Vessel Seller, the Vessel Seller would own approximately 35.15% of our issued and outstanding common stock as of April 9, 2015. As a result, the aggregate number of shares of our common stock we may issue to the Vessel Seller in connection with our proposed acquisition of the Vessel could result in the issuance of more than 20% of our outstanding common stock as of April 9, 2015.
		Accordingly, we are seeking shareholder approval for this Proposal 2 to satisfy the shareholder approval requirement of the 20% Rule. Under the NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(a), the minimum vote which will constitute shareholder approval of this Proposal 2 for the purposes of the 20% Rule is a majority of the total votes cast on the proposal in person or by proxy at the annual meeting.
		We did not seek advance shareholder approval of the potential issuance of all of the 3,362,162 shares we may issue to the Vessel Seller, because the 1.2 million shares we issued to the Vessel Seller in the First Installment prior to shareholder approval was less than 20% of our issued and outstanding common stock, and, as such, prior shareholder approval was not required pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(a).
What voting options do I have?		Shareholders may vote “For” or “Against” this Proposal 2. A vote of “For” would mean that a shareholder is voting in favor of the issuance by us of more than 20% of our common stock to the Vessel Seller as of April 9, 2015 in connection with our proposed acquisition of the Vessel. Specifically, we may issue up to a total of 3,362,162 shares to the Vessel Seller in connection with the Vessel acquisition (of which 1.2 shares were issued to the Vessel Seller on April 10, 2015 as payment of the First Installment of the Vessel acquisition purchase price), and, subject to shareholder approval of Proposal 2 and Proposal 3 and agreement with the Vessel Seller, we may issue to the Vessel Seller up to an additional $4.0 million of our shares at a price of $1.85 per share (2,162,162 additional shares) as partial payment of the remaining portion of the Vessel acquisition purchase price.
What vote is required to approve this proposal?		Approval of this Proposal 2 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present or represented by proxy and voting at an Annual Meeting.
May the Vessel Seller vote the 1.2 million shares we previously issued to it as payment of the First Installment of the Vessel acquisition purchase price at the 2015 annual shareholders meeting?		No, because (i) we issued such 1.2 million shares to the Vessel Seller on April 10, 2015, the day after the Record Date, and (ii) NASDAQ IM-5635-2, interpreting NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635, prohibits such voting by the Vessel Seller on this Proposal 2 and Proposal 3.


Where can I get further information on this?		The Asset Purchase Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.10 to Amendment No. 6 (“Amendment No. 6”) to our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”), pursuant to which we are registering for resale by the Vessel Seller the 1.2 million shares we issued in the First Installment to the Vessel Seller, which Amendment No. 6 also contains other information regarding the Vessel and the Vessel acquisition, including risk factors relating thereto. In addition, our press release discussing our entering into the Asset Purchase Agreement was filed as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 13, 2015 (the “4/13/2015 8-K”). The 4/13/2015 8-K and information related to the Vessel and our proposed acquisition of the Vessel set forth in Amendment No. 6 are incorporated by reference into this proxy statement.
What if the proposal is not approved?		If shareholders do not approve Proposal 2, the Company in likelihood will not complete the Vessel acquisition.
What if our shareholders approve Proposal 3, but do not approve Proposal 2?		If shareholders do not approve Proposal 2, the Company in likelihood will not complete the Vessel acquisition.

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE ISSUANCE MORE THAN 20% OF OUR ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AS OF APRIL 9, 2015, TO THE VESSEL SELLER IN CONNECTION WITH OUR PROPOSED ACQUISITION OF THE VESSEL, WHICH IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH ACQUISITION AND IN ADDITION TO THE 1.2 MILLION SHARES WE ISSUED TO THE VESSEL SELLER AS PAYMENT OF THE FIRST INSTALLMENT OF THE VESSEL ACQUISITION PURCHASE PRICE, WE MAY, SUBJECT TO APPROVAL OF THIS PROPOSAL 2 AND PROPOSAL 3 BELOW AND AGREEMENT BETWEEN US AND THE VESSEL SELLER, ISSUE TO THE VESSEL SELLER UP TO AN ADDITIONAL $4.0 MILLION OF OUR SHARES AT A PRICE OF $1.85 PER SHARE (2,162,162 ADDITIONAL SHARES) AS PART OF THE REMAINING PURCHASE PRICE OF THE VESSEL.

PROPOSAL 3

APPROVAL UNDER NASDAQ LISTING RULE 5635(B) OF ANY DEEMED “CHANGE OF CONTROL” UNDER NASDAQ LISTING RULE 5635(B) OF THE COMPANY RESULTING FROM THE PROPOSED ISSUANCE TO THE VESSEL SELLER OF UP TO A TOTAL OF 3,362,162 SHARES IN THE VESSEL ACQUISITION
(ITEM 3 ON THE PROXY CARD)


What am I voting on?		To approve, under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b) any deemed “change of control” of the Company resulting from the potential issuance to the Vessel Seller of up to a total of 3,362,162 shares of our common stock in connection with the Vessel acquisition.
Why does the Company need Shareholder Approval?		NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b) requires shareholder approval prior to any issuance or potential issuance which will result in any deemed “change of control” of an issuer under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b), which may be deemed to occur if after a transaction a single investor or an affiliated investor group acquires, or has the right to acquire as little as 20% of the common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) or voting power of an issuer and such ownership would be the largest ownership position of the issuer.
		Assuming we issue to the Vessel Seller all of the 3,362,162 shares of our common stock in connection with our proposed acquisition of the Vessel (which includes the 1.2 million shares we issued to the Vessel Seller as the First Installment on April 10, 2015), such issuance would result in the Vessel Seller owning 35.15% of our issued and outstanding common stock and being our largest shareholder. This would result in a deemed “change of control” under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b).
		Accordingly, we are seeking shareholder approval of any deemed “change of control” (as used in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b)) resulting from the issuance of any of the up to a total of 3,362,162 shares to the Vessel Seller in connection with the Vessel acquisition that would be deemed a “change of control” under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b). Shareholders should note that a “change of control” as described under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b) applies only with respect to the application of NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b), and does not constitute a “change of control” for purposes of Virginia law, our organizational documents or for any other purpose.
What voting options do I have?		Shareholders may vote “For” or “Against” this Proposal 3. A vote of “For” would mean that a shareholder is voting in favor of any deemed “change of control” under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(b) resulting from the issuance of up to a total of 3,362,162 shares to the Vessel Seller in the proposed Vessel acquisition pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement.
What vote is required to approve this proposal?		Approval of this Proposal 3 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present or represented by proxy and voting at an Annual Meeting.


May the Vessel Seller vote the 1.2 million shares we previously issued to it as payment of the First Installment of the Vessel acquisition purchase price at the 2015 annual shareholder meeting?		No, because (i) we issued such 1.2 million shares to the Vessel Seller on April 10, 2015, the day after the Record Date, and (ii) NASDAQ IM-5635-2, interpreting NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635, prohibits such voting by the Vessel Seller on Proposal 2 and this Proposal 3.
Where can I get further information on this?		A description of the terms of the acquisition of the Vessel and the Asset Purchase Agreement is included above in Proposal 2 in the Section titled “Certain information regarding the Vessel acquisition and related items.” The Asset Purchase Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.10 to Amendment No. 6 to the Registration Statement, which Amendment No. 6 also contains other information regarding the Vessel and the Vessel acquisition, including risk factors relating thereto. In addition, our press release discussing our entering into the Asset Purchase Agreement was filed as an exhibit to the 4/13/2015 8-K. The 4/13/2015 8-K and the portions of Amendment No. 6 relating to the Vessel and the Vessel acquisition as well as the Asset Purchase Agreement are incorporated by reference into this proxy statement.
What if the proposal is not approved?		If shareholders do not approve Proposal 3, the Company in likelihood will not complete the Vessel acquisition.
What if our shareholders approve Proposal 2, but do not approve Proposal 3?		If shareholders do not approve Proposal 3, the Company in likelihood will not complete the Vessel acquisition.

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE TO APPROVE ANY DEEMED “CHANGE OF
CONTROL” OF THE COMPANY UNDER NASDAQ LISTING RULE 5635(B) RESULTING
FROM THE PROPOSED ISSUANCE TO THE VESSEL SELLER OF UP TO A TOTAL OF
3,362,162 SHARES IN THE VESSEL ACQUISITION

PROPOSAL 4

(ITEM 4 ON THE PROXY CARD)


What am I voting on?		A proposal to ratify the appointment of Friedman LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has appointed Friedman LLP to serve as the Company’s fiscal year 2015 independent registered public accounting firm. Although the Company’s governing documents do not require the submission of this matter to shareholders, the Board of Directors considers it desirable primarily as a matter of good corporate governance that the appointment of Friedman LLP be ratified by shareholders.

Audit services provided by Friedman LLP for fiscal year 2014 included the examination of the consolidated financial statements of the Company and services related to periodic filings made with the SEC. In addition, Friedman LLP provided certain services relating to the Company’s quarterly reports.
Will a representative of Friedman LLP be present at the meeting?		One or more representatives of Friedman LLP will be present at the meeting. The representatives will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire and will be available to respond to questions from shareholders.
What if this proposal is not approved?		If the shareholders do not ratify the appointment, our Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain Friedman LLP. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, at its discretion, may change the appointment at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in our best interests and the best interest of our shareholders.
What vote is required to ratify this proposal?		This Proposal 4 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present or represented by proxy and voting at the Annual Meeting with quorum.

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE RATIFICATION OF FRIEDMAN LLP
AS THE COMPANY’S FISCAL YEAR 2015 INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM.

PROPOSAL 5

ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION
(ITEM 5 ON THE PROXY CARD)


What am I voting on?		We are asking our shareholders to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers for 2014 as disclosed in the Proxy Statement pursuant to the requirements of Item 402 of Regulation S-K. This advisory vote, which is sometimes referred to as a “say on pay” vote is required by Section 14A of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Is this vote binding on our Company?		As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding upon our Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee and will not be construed as overruling a decision by our Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee or creating or implying any additional fiduciary duty for our Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, the Compensation Committee and the Board value the opinions expressed by shareholders in their vote on this proposal and will continue to consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions regarding named executive officers.
How often will shareholders vote on named executive officer compensation?		Our current policy is to provide shareholders with an opportunity to approve the compensation of the named executive officers every year at the annual meeting of shareholders. It is expected that the next such vote will occur at the fiscal year 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
What vote is required to approve this proposal?		Approval of this Proposal 5 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present or represented by proxy and voting at an Annual Meeting with quorum.
What are shareholders being asked to approve?		The Board of Directors is requesting your non-binding approval of the following resolution:
		*Resolved, that the shareholders approve, in a nonbinding vote, the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement.*
What if this proposal is not approved?		Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, this vote is advisory only, and accordingly, is not binding on the Company or on our Board of Directors. Although the vote is non-binding, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors will carefully consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions.

WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE NONBINDING ADVISORY
RESOLUTION APPROVING NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS, CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND OTHER RELATED INFORMATION


What if a nominee is unwilling or unable to serve?		Each of the nominees listed in the Proxy Statement has agreed to serve as a director, if elected. If for some unforeseen reason a nominee becomes unwilling or unable to serve, proxies will be voted for a substitute nominee selected by the Board of Directors.
How are directors compensated?		Non-employee directors are entitled to receive $5,000 per quarter. From time to time we may issue securities to our directors as well in compensation for services, but the amount and frequency of such grants is not set. In addition, non-employee directors are entitled to receive compensation for their actual travel expenses for each Board of Directors meeting attended.
How does the Board determine which directors are independent?		The Board of Directors reviews the independence of each director yearly. During this review, the Board of Directors considers transactions and relationships between each director (and his or her immediate family and affiliates) and the Company and its management to determine whether any such relationships or transactions are inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent in light of applicable law, listing standards and the Company’s director independence standards. The Company believes that it maintains a majority of independent directors who are deemed to be independent under the definition of independence provided by NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2).
What role does the Corporate Governance Committee play in selecting nominees to the Board of Directors?		Two of the primary purposes of the Board’s Corporate Governance Committee are (i) to develop and implement policies and procedures that are intended to ensure that the Board of Directors will be appropriately constituted and organized to meet its fiduciary obligations to the Company and its shareholders and (ii) to identify individuals qualified to become members of the Board of Directors and to recommend to the Board of Directors the director nominees for the annual meeting of shareholders. The Corporate Governance Committee is also responsible for considering candidates for membership on the Board of Directors submitted by eligible shareholders. The Corporate Governance Committee’s charter is available on the Company’s website at www.sino-global.com and in print upon request. The Corporate Governance Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors was the only entity or person to nominate and/or recommend any of the director nominees.
Are the members of the Corporate Governance Committee independent?		Yes. All members of the Corporate Governance Committee have been determined to be independent by the Board of Directors.


How does the Corporate Governance Committee identify and evaluate nominees for director?		The Corporate Governance Committee considers candidates for nomination to the Board of Directors from a number of sources. Current members of the Board of Directors are considered for re-election unless they have notified the Company that they do not wish to stand for re-election. The Corporate Governance Committee also considers candidates recommended by current members of the Board of Directors, members of management or eligible shareholders. From time to time the Board may engage a firm to assist in identifying potential candidates, although the Company did not engage such a firm to identify any of the nominees for director proposed for election at the meeting.
		The Corporate Governance Committee evaluates all candidates for director, regardless of the person or firm recommending such candidate, on the basis of the length and quality of their business experience, the applicability of such candidate’s experience to the Company and its business, the skills and perspectives such candidate would bring to the Board of Directors and the personality or “fit” of such candidate with existing members of the Board of Directors and management. The Corporate Governance Committee does not have a specific policy in place with regard to the consideration of diversity when identifying director nominees; however, the corporate governance committee does consider diversity of opinion and experience when nominating directors.
What are the Corporate Governance Committee’s policies and procedures for considering director candidates recommended by shareholders?		The Corporate Governance Committee will consider all candidates recommended by eligible shareholders. An eligible shareholder is a shareholder (or group of shareholders) who owns at least 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares and who has held such shares for at least one year as of the date of the recommendation. A shareholder wishing to recommend a candidate must submit the following documents to the Secretary of the Company at Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd., 1044 Northern Boulevard Roslyn, New York 11576-1514:
		• a recommendation that identifies the name and address of the shareholder and the person to be nominated;
		• documentation establishing that the shareholder making the recommendation is an eligible shareholder;
		• the written consent of the candidate to serve as a director of the Company, if elected;
		• a description of all arrangements between the shareholders and such nominee pursuant to which the nomination is to be made; and
		• such other information regarding the nominee as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the SEC.


		Upon timely receipt of the required documents, the Company’s Secretary will determine whether the shareholder submitting the recommendation is an eligible shareholder based on such documents. If the shareholder is not an eligible shareholder, the Corporate Governance Committee may, but is not obligated to, evaluate the candidate and consider such candidate for nomination to the Board of Directors.
		If the candidate is to be evaluated by the Corporate Governance Committee, the Secretary will request a detailed resume, an autobiographical statement explaining the candidate’s interest in serving as a director of the Company, a completed statement regarding conflicts of interest, and a waiver of liability for a background check from the candidate.
What are the minimum qualifications required to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors?		All members of the Board of Directors must possess the following minimum qualifications as determined by the Corporate Governance Committee:
		• A director must demonstrate integrity, accountability, informed judgment, financial literacy, creativity and vision;
		• A director must be prepared to represent the best interests of all Company shareholders, and not just one particular constituency;
		• A director must have a record of professional accomplishment in his or her chosen field; and
		• A director must be prepared and able to participate fully in Board activities, including membership on committees.
What other considerations does the Corporate Governance Committee consider?		The Corporate Governance Committee believes it is important to have directors from various backgrounds and professions in order to ensure that the Board of Directors has a wealth of experiences to inform its decisions. Consistent with this philosophy, in addition to the minimum standards set forth above, business and managerial experience and an understanding of financial statements and financial matters are very important.
How may shareholders communicate with the members of the Board of Directors?		Shareholders and others who are interested in communicating directly with members of the Board of Directors, including communication of concerns relating to accounting, internal accounting controls or audit matters, or fraud or unethical behavior, may do so by writing to the directors at the following address:
		Name of Director or Directors c/o Zhikang Huang, Secretary Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd. 1044 Northern Boulevard Roslyn, New York 11576-1514


Does the Company have a Code of Conduct?		The Company has adopted a Code of Conduct, which is applicable to all directors, officers and associates of the Company, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial and accounting officer. The complete text of the Code of Conduct is available on the Company’s web site at www.sino-global.com and is also available in print upon request. The Company intends to post any amendments to or waivers from its Code of Conduct (to the extent applicable to the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer) at this location on its web site.
How often did the Board meet in fiscal year 2014?		The Board of Directors met a total of three times, at regular meetings, during fiscal year 2014. The Compensation Committee and the Corporate Governance Committee each met one time during fiscal year 2014 and the Audit Committee met four times during fiscal year 2014. Each incumbent director attended all of the meetings of the Board of Directors and of the standing committees of which he or she was a member during fiscal year 2014.

The primary responsibility of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in monitoring the integrity of the Company’s financial statements and the independence of its external auditors. The Company believes that each of the members of the Audit Committee is “independent” and that Dr. Liu qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” in accordance with applicable NASDAQ Capital Market listing standards.

		• Review the internal accounting function of the Company, the proposed audit plans for the coming year and the coordination of such plans with the Company’s independent auditors;
		• Review the financial statements contained in the annual report to shareholders with management and the independent auditors to determine that the independent auditors are satisfied with the disclosure and contents of the financial statements to be presented to the shareholders;
		• Provide sufficient opportunity for the independent auditors to meet with the members of the Committee without members of management present.

These employment agreements provide for one-year terms that extend automatically in the absence of termination provided at least 60 days prior to the anniversary date of the agreement. If we fail to provide this notice or if we wish to terminate an employment agreement in the absence of cause, then we are obligated to provide at least 30 days’ prior notice.

In the event of termination due to death or disability, the payment is equal to two times the executive’s salary.
