TAL discovered irregularities and violations of the Company’s business conduct and internal control policies by an employee in the Company’s newly introduced ‘Light Class’ business. Upon such discovery, TAL immediately reported to the local police. The employee has been taken into custody by the local police.

Based upon the Company’s routine internal audit, the Company suspects that the employee of question conspired with external vendors to wrongly inflate ‘Light Class’ sales by forging contracts and other documentations.
