Common Shares On March 8, 2011, Dehaier issued 10,000 unregistered common shares to an investment relations firm in connection with the investment advice rendered for the Company. The fair value of the shares on the grant date based on the closing price was $59,300. On November 16, 2011, Dehaier issued 50,000 unregistered common shares to a consulting firm in connection with the financial advisory services rendered for the Company. The fair value of the shares on the grant date based on the closing price was $84,250. During 2012, Dehaier issued 60,000 restrict unregistered common shares to independent consultants in connection with investment counseling and financial advisory services rendered for the Company. The fair value of the shares on the grant date based on the closing price was approximately $109,000. Statutory Surplus Reserves A PRC company is required to make appropriations to statutory surplus reserve, based on after-tax net income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the PRC (“PRC GAAP”). Appropriations to the statutory surplus reserve is required to be at least 10% of the after tax net income determined in accordance with PRC GAAP until the reserve is equal to 50% of the entity’s’ registered capital. The statutory surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining statutory surplus reserve balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital. Since Dehaier is a British Virgin Islands’ company, it will not be subject to the statutory surplus reserve provisions. BDL is a joint-venture company and the statutory surplus reserve provisions will be determined by its board of directors. As of March 18, 2013, BDL’s board of directors has not yet made such determination. Therefore, no amount was allocated to the statutory surplus reserve account. BTL appropriated 10% of its net profits as statutory surplus reserve, which is included as part of the non-controlling interest in the equity section. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, statutory surplus reserve activity was as follows:
|  | December 31, |
|  | 2012 US$ |  |  | 2011 US$ |
