May 29 - Kingold Jewelry Signs Agreement with Shenzhen-based Wholesaler to Process Gold Jewelry Products
Company Expects to Process at Least 104 Kilograms (approximately 3,668 Ounces) a Month
Kingold Jewelry, Inc. (NASDAQ: KGJI), one of China's leading manufacturers and designers of high quality 24-karat gold jewelry, ornaments and investment-oriented products, today announced that it has entered into a gold-processing agreement with Shenzhen TongXin Jewelry Ltd. ("Shenzhen TongXin"), a large Shenzhen-based wholesaler of jewelry products. Shenzhen TongXin is a leading integrated company in jewelry and precious metal production, processing, wholesaling and refining in Mainland China since 1965. Shenzhen Tongxin is one of the "Famous TradeMarks of China", and its products have been distributed to more than 20 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions, and have been exported to the United States, South Korea, Russia, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy and other countries, with annual sales volume of over 40 tons.
Pursuant to the agreement, Kingold will exclusively process a variety of 24-karat gold jewelry products (rings, necklaces, bracelets) for Shenzhen TongXin beginning June 1, 2012 until May 31, 2013. Kingold expects to process at least 104 kilograms, or approximately 3668 ounces, of jewelry products per month until the expiration date of the agreement. Kingold's revenue from this agreement will be derived from its sales price of goods sold upon delivery to Shenzhen TongXin along with its service fees. While pricing is subject to change, based on a current spot price of gold on the date the agreement was executed of approximately US$1,568 per ounce, this would equate to revenues to Kingold of approximately US$5.8 million per month (excluding additional revenues from processing fees). The actual pricing of jewelry products produced under the agreement will be finalized at the time of sale. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Kingold holds the right to increase its processing fee if the then-current price of gold falls.
Mr. Zhi Hong Jia, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kingold Jewelry stated, "This agreement is the culmination of a long-process in our discussions with Shenzhen TongXin. The company approached Kingold over two years ago, and began a thorough screening process in evaluating Kingold's processing capabilities, customer service, and quality of product. We are very confident that our quality and reputation within the industry helped greatly in securing this agreement. We are looking forward to working with Shenzhen TongXin, and as always are working towards broadening our base of major distributors and wholesalers."

June 22 - Alexza Announces Resubmission of ADASUVE™ NDA and Provides Regulatory Updates on US and EU Submissions
Alexza Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALXA) announced that it has resubmitted its ADASUVE New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in response to a Complete Response Letter (CRL) received in May 2012. ADASUVE is being developed for the acute treatment of agitation associated with schizophrenia or bipolar I disorder in adults. In the coming weeks, Alexza expects to hear from the FDA regarding the completeness of the resubmitted NDA, the classification of the resubmission (Class 1 or Class 2) and what the new Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) goal date will be. Class 1 and Class 2 resubmissions have targeted review periods of 2 months and 6 months, respectively.
ADASUVE NDA Regulatory Update
In May 2012, Alexza received a CRL from the FDA. In the CRL, the FDA noted, "During a recent inspection of the Mountain View, CA manufacturing facility for this application, our field investigator conveyed deficiencies to the representative of the facility. Satisfactory resolution of these deficiencies is required before this application may be approved." Alexza has stated that it believed the deficiencies were medical device specific and readily addressable. Since the receipt of the CRL, Alexza has received further clarification of the specific deficiencies from the FDA and has made submissions directly to Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) Office of Compliance and the San Francisco District Office, intended to fully address the deficiencies.
The May 2012 CRL also contained comments on Alexza's draft product labeling. Alexza believes that there is substantial agreement between Alexza and the FDA on product labeling. In the ADASUVE NDA resubmission, Alexza has submitted updated draft labeling which is intended to be responsive to the comments provided by FDA in the May 2012 CRL.
There were no new clinical or safety issues identified and there were no other deficiencies outlined in the CRL. With respect to the ADASUVE Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS), the CRL stated that discussions can continue on the proposed REMS after the response to the CRL has been submitted. Alexza believes that there is substantial agreement between Alexza and the FDA on the REMS.
ADASUVE MAA Regulatory Update
In March 2012, Alexza received the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use Consolidated List of Questions (Day 120 List of Questions) regarding Alexza's ADASUVE Marketing Authorization Application (MAA). The Day 120 List of Questions included major objections pertaining to the extrapolation of Phase 3 clinical efficacy data, aspects of the risk management plan, and the need to obtain an EU Good Manufacturing Practices certificate for Alexza's Mountain View, CA manufacturing facility and commercial manufacturing process.
In May 2012, Alexza and its corporate partner, Grupo Ferrer, met with the Rapporteur, Co-Rapporteur and European Medicines Agency (EMA) to further understand specifics of the major objections raised in the Day 120 List of Questions. Alexza believes it remains on schedule for the targeted early third quarter of 2012 submission of its responses (Day 121 Submission) to the EMA. Also in May, Alexza hosted an EU Pre-Approval Inspection (PAI) by the EMA. The inspection resulted in no findings the EMA would classify as Critical or Major findings.
