Resignation of Ruifeng (Steven) Guo as Chief Financial Officer and Director

 

On November 6, 2024, Mr. Ruifeng (Steven) Guo, the Chief Financial Officer and a director of the board of the directors (the “Board”) of Fly-E Group, Inc. (the “Company”), tendered his resignation as Chief Financial Officer and director of the Company, effective November 6, 2024. Mr. Guo’s resignation was not a result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its accounting, operations, policies or practices.

 

Appointment of Shiwen Feng as Chief Financial Officer and Director

 

On November 6, 2024, the Board appointed Ms. Shiwen Feng as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and a director to fill the vacancies created by the resignation of Mr. Guo, effective November 7, 2024.

 

Ms. Shiwen Feng, 28, is an experienced financial professional with a background in corporate finance, corporate tax management, and project oversight. From October 2021 to October 2024, Ms. Feng served as the manager at PJMG LLC, a consulting services company, where she was responsible for overseeing financial planning, managing corporate structuring, and ensuring compliance with financial regulations. Prior to that, from September 2019 to July 2021, Shiwen Feng worked at DGLG Accounting & Tax LLC, an accounting and financial consulting company, first as a staff member assisting with corporate formations, tax compliance, and payroll management, and later as a manager, focusing on financial reporting, monthly bookkeeping, and corporate tax filings. She earned her Master’s degree in Accounting from the Frank G. Zarb School of Business at Hofstra University in 2020 and her Bachelor’s degree in Accounting from Henan University in China in 2019.

 

There are no family relationships between Ms. Feng and any director or executive officer of the Company. To the knowledge of the Company, there is no understanding or arrangement between Ms. Feng and any other person pursuant to which she was appointed as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and a member of the Board. Additionally, there have been no transactions in the past two years to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates was or is to be a party, in which Ms. Feng had, or will have, a direct or indirect material interest, and none are currently proposed that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

 

Mr. Feng has entered into an employment agreement with the Company, dated November 7, 2024. The employment agreement provides that Ms. Feng will serve as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, subject to a three-month probation period. During the probation period, she will receive a monthly base salary of $5,000, which will increase to $6,667 after the period ends. She will also be entitled to reimbursement for authorized and reasonable expenses. The agreement allows for at-will termination by either party, provided, however, a minimum of two weeks' advance written notice is required in the event of resignation by Ms. Feng. If Ms. Feng’s employment is terminated due to death or disability, she or her estate will receive salary and benefits through the termination date. The Company may terminate the agreement for cause, releasing it from all further obligations except for accrued salary and benefits through the termination date. “Cause” includes failure or neglect by Ms. Feng to perform duties, disobedience to orders, misconduct such as misappropriation of funds, personal profit from Company transactions, misrepresentation, legal violations, acts involving moral turpitude or unethical conduct, disloyalty including aiding a competitor, failure to devote full-time efforts to the Company, not working exclusively for the Company, non-cooperation in investigations, breaches of the employment agreement or the Company rules, and any other act of misconduct or omission. The agreement includes covenants for non-disclosure, non-solicitation, and non-competition. For two years post-termination, Ms. Feng agrees not to solicit the Company’s customers or engage in competing business activities within New York State. Ms. Feng will not receive any additional compensation as a director in addition to her compensation as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
