Metaverse Yunji Technology Group Company Limited 元宇宙雲基科技集團有限公司
Tsang Chung Yu, ex-INED of Metaverse Yunji (ex-8287) and 11 others charged with alleged 66m share options fraud
| ICAC announcement
SFC, 25-Oct-2024
We note that the 5-year options were granted on 8-Sep-2022, in the midst of a court battle for control of the board, exhausting the 10% limit in one go. All 10 recipients chose to exercise the options that day, with shares issued on 9-Sep-2022 and deposited with the same broker in CCASS. Only 2 purported directors, including Mr Tsang, signed the attendance sheet of the board meeting to grant the options. The other was ED Mr Cheng Kwan Yu, who is not charged. All 10 grantees are charged, along with a Chan Wai Lung, whose alleged role is not yet known. Helpfully, the ICAC routinely gives the ages of defendants. The SFC fails to do so, making it harder to identify them.
