Unless otherwise indicated in this prospectus or the context otherwise requires, all references to ‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ ‘‘our’’ and “the Company” , “China Net Companies” or “China Net” refers collectively to ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), China Net Online Media Group Limited, a company organized under the laws of British Virgin Islands (“ChinaNet BVI”), CNET Online Technology Limited, a Hong Kong company (“China Net HK”), which established and is the parent company of Rise King Century Technology Development (Beijing) Co., Ltd., a wholly foreign-owned enterprise (“WFOE”) established in the People's Republic of China (“Rise King WFOE”), Business Opportunity Online (Beijing) Network Technology Co., Ltd. a PRC company (“Business Opportunity Online”), Beijing CNET Online Advertising Co., Ltd., a PRC company (“Beijing CNET Online”), and Shanghai Borongdingsi Computer Technology Co., Ltd. a PRC company (“Shanghai Borongdingsi”).

OUR COMPANY

The Company is a holding company that conducts its primary businesses through its subsidiaries and operating companies, Business Opportunity Online, Beijing CNET Online and Shanghai Borongdongsi. We are one of China’s leading full-service media development and advertising platforms for the small and medium enterprise (the “SME”) market. We are a service oriented business that leverages proprietary advertising technology to prepare and publish rich media enabled advertising campaigns for clients on the Internet and on television. Our goal is to strengthen our position as the leading diversified media advertising provider in China. Our multi-platform advertising network consists of the website www.28.com (“28.com”), our Internet advertising portal, ChinaNet TV, our TV production and advertising unit, and our newly launched bank kiosk advertising unit, which is primarily used as an advertising platform for clients in the financial services industry.

Through the high traffic internet portal 28.com, operated through Beijing Opportunity Online, companies and entrepreneurs advertise their products, services and business opportunities. Through our ChinaNet TV division, operated through Beijing CNET Online, we create and distribute television shows similar to infomercials. Through our new bank kiosk division, operated through Shanghai Borongdongsi, we place kiosks in branches of banks in strategic cooperation with banking institutions, and sell advertising time on those kiosks to our clients.

We derive our revenue principally by:

charging our clients fixed monthly fees to advertise on 28.com;

charging production fees for television and web video spots;

selling advertising time slots on our television shows and bank kiosks;

reselling Internet space and television space at a discount to the direct cost of any individual space or time slot, but at a mark-up to our cost due to purchase of these items in bulk; and

collecting fees associated with lead generation.

The five largest industries in terms of revenue in which our advertising clients operate are (1) food and beverage, (2) women accessories, (3) footwear, apparel and garments, (4) home goods and construction materials, and (5) environmental protection equipment. Advertisers from these industries together accounted for approximately 79% of our revenue in 2008.

ChinaNet Organizational Structure

Prior to July 14, 2009, our company name was Emazing Interactive, Inc. On June 26, 2009, the Company, which formerly focused on web server access and company branding in hosting web-based e-games, entered into a share exchange agreement with the shareholders of ChinaNet BVI, which controlled Business Opportunity Online, Beijing CNET Online and Shanghai Borongdongsi. Pursuant to that agreement, the ChinaNet BVI Shareholders transferred to the Company all of the ChinaNet BVI Shares in exchange for the issuance of shares of Common Stock (the “Share Exchange”). As a result of the Share Exchange, ChinaNet BVI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company is now a holding company, which through certain contractual arrangements with operating companies in the PRC, is engaged in providing advertising, marketing and communication services to SMEs in China.

For the sole purpose of changing its name, on July 14, 2009, the Company merged into a newly-formed, wholly owned subsidiary incorporated under the laws of Nevada called ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. As a result of the merger, our corporate name was changed to ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc.

Executive Offices

Our principal executive offices are located at No.3 Min Zhuang Road, Building 6, Yu Quan Hui Gu Tuspark, Haidian District, Beijing, PRC, 100195. Our telephone number at that address is 86-10-5160-0828.

RECENT DEVELOPMENT

On August 21, 2009 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a securities purchase agreement with several investors, including institutional, accredited and non-US persons and entities (the “Investors”), pursuant to which we sold 4,121,600 units, comprised of 10% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), and series A-1 and series A-2 of warrants, at any exercise price of $3.00 and $3.75, respectively, for a purchase price of $2.50 per unit and gross proceeds of approximately $10.3 million (the “Financing”). The issuance of the units was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Regulation D or Regulation S promulgated thereunder. Net proceeds from the Financing were approximately $9.5 million.

In connection with the Financing, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Investors in which we agreed to (i) file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register the Common Stock underlying the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A-1 Warrants and the Series A-2 Warrants, thirty (30) days after the closing of the Financing, (ii) use our best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective within a given time period, and (iii) keep the Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until such date as is the earlier of the date when all of the securities covered by that registration statement have been sold or the date on which such securities may be sold without any restriction pursuant to Rule144. Subject to certain exceptions, we are required pay liquidated damages if the Registration Statement is not filed or declared effective within given time periods, or ceases to be effective during the time period effectiveness is contractually required under the RRA.

In connection with the Financing, we entered into a securities escrow agreement with the Investors (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which Rise King Investment Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (the “Principal Stockholder”), initially placed 2,558,160 shares of Common Stock (the “Escrow Shares”) into an escrow account. The Escrow Shares are shares of Common Stock currently owned by the Principal Stockholder as a result of the Share Exchange. Of the Escrow Shares, 1,279,080 shares (equivalent to 50% of the Escrow Shares) are being held as security for the achievement of audited net income equal to or greater than $7.7 million for the fiscal year 2009 (the “2009 Performance Threshold”) and the remaining 1,279,080 of the Esrow Shares are being held as security for the achievement of audited net income equal to or greater than $14 million for the fiscal year 2010 (the “2010 Performance Threshold”).

If we achieve at least 95% of the applicable Performance Threshold, all of the Escrow Shares for the corresponding fiscal year shall be returned to the Principal Stockholder. If we achieve less than 95% of the applicable Performance Threshold, the Investors shall receive in the aggregate, on a pro rata basis (based upon the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Conversion Shares owned by each such Investor as of the date of distribution of the Escrow Shares), 63,954 shares of the Escrow Shares for each percentage by which the applicable Performance Threshold was not achieved up to the total number of Escrow Shares for the applicable fiscal year. Any Escrow Shares not delivered to any Investor because such Investor no longer holds shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Conversion Shares shall be returned to the Principal Stockholder.

For the purposes of the Escrow Agreement, net income is defined in accordance with US GAAP and reported by us in our audited financial statements for each of the fiscal years ended 2009 and 2010; provided, however, that net income for each of fiscal years ended 2009 and 2010 shall be increased by any non-cash charges incurred (i) as a result of the Financing , including without limitation, as a result of the issuance and/or conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, and the issuance and/or exercise of the Warrants, (ii) as a result of the release of the Escrow Shares to the Principal Stockholder and/or the Investors, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, (iii) as a result of the issuance of ordinary shares of the Principal Stockholder to Messrs. Handong Cheng and Xuanfu Liu and Ms. Li Sun (the “PRC Shareholders”), upon the exercise of options granted to the PRC Shareholders by the Principal Stockholder, (iv) as a result of the issuance of warrants to any placement agent and its designees in connection with the Financing, (v) the exercise of any warrants to purchase Common Stock outstanding and (vi) the issuance under any performance based equity incentive plan that we adopt.

In addition, we are a party to a Lock-Up Agreement with each of our executive officers and directors (the “Affiliates”), under which the Affiliates have agreed with not to offer, sell, contract to sell, assign, transfer, hypothecate gift, pledge or grant a securitiy interest in, or other wise dispose of any shares of our common stock that such Affiliates presently own or may acquire after the Closing Date during the period commencing on the Closing Date and expiring on the date that is six months following the effective date of the Registration Statement (the “Lock-up Period”). Each Affiliate further agreed that during the 12-month period following the Lock-up Period, such Affiliate shall not transfer more than one-twelfth (1/12) of such Affiliate’s holding of Common Stock during any one calendar month.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our Common Stock is speculative and involves a high degree of risk and uncertainty. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with the other information contained in this prospectus, including the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, before deciding to invest in our Common Stock. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we presently consider immaterial may also adversely affect our Company. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations and the value of our Common Stock could be materially and adversely affected.

Risks Related to Our Business

The recent global economic and financial market crisis has had and may continue to have a negative effect on the market price of our business, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

The recent global economic and financial market crisis has caused, among other things, a general tightening in the credit markets, lower levels of liquidity, increases in the rates of default and bankruptcy, lower consumer and business spending, and lower consumer net worth, in the United States, China and other parts of the world. This global economic and financial market crisis has had, and may continue to have, a negative effect on the market price of our business, the volatility of which has increased as a result of the disruptions in the financial markets. It may also impair our ability to borrow funds or enter into other financial arrangements if and when additional founds become necessary for our operations. We believe many of our advertisers have also been affected by the current economic turmoil. Current or potential advertisers may no longer be in business, may be unable to fund advertising purchases or determine to reduce purchases, all of which would lead to reduced demand for our advertising services, reduced gross margins, and increased delays of payments of accounts receivable or defaults of payments. We are also limited in our ability to reduce costs to offset the results of a prolonged or severe economic downturn given our fixed costs associated with our operations. Therefore, the global economic and financial market crisis could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. In addition, the timing and nature of any recovery in the credit and financial markets remains uncertain, and there can be no assurance that market conditions will improve in the near future or that our results will not continue to be materially and adversely affected.

We have a limited operating history, which may make it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects.

We began our Internet advertising service via 28.com in 2003, and entered into the TV production and advertising with China Net TV in May 2008. Both the Internet and TV advertising platforms are targeting SME customers. The SME market in China is still in its early stages. In addition, we started our bank kiosk advertising service through Shanghai Borongdingsi for financial sector customers in 2008. Accordingly, our limited operating history and the early stage of development of the markets in which we operate makes it difficult to evaluate the viability and sustainability of our business and its acceptance by advertisers and consumers. Although our revenues have grown rapidly, we cannot assure you that we will maintain our profitability or that we will not incur net losses in the future. We expect that our operating expenses will increase as we expand. Any significant failure to realize anticipated revenue growth could result in operating losses.

We may be subject to, and may expend significant resources in defending against, government actions and civil suits based on the content and services we provide through our Internet, TV and bank kiosk advertising platforms.

PRC advertising laws and regulations require advertisers, advertising operators and advertising distributors, including businesses such as ours, to ensure that the content of the advertisements they prepare or distribute is fair, accurate and in full compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. Although we comply with the requirements by reviewing the business licenses and the profiles of our clients, clients may post advertisements about business opportunities that are not legitimate over which we have no control. Violation of these laws, rules or regulations may result in penalties, including fines, confiscation of advertising fees, orders to cease dissemination of the advertisements and orders to publish an advertisement correcting the misleading information. In circumstances involving serious violations, the PRC government may revoke a violator’s license for its advertising business operations.

In April 2009, CCTV reported a story that a franchised store advertised on 28.com turned out to be a scam, and the fraud victim asserted she joined the store because she trusted the website. Pursuant to the PRC advertising law, Business Opportunity Online as the publisher of advertisement has the obligation to check relevant documents and verify the content of the advertisement. For commercial franchise business in China, a franchiser needs to file an application with the MOC or its local branches through the website http://txjy.syggs.mofcom.gov.cn/. When a franchiser issues an advertisement through Business Opportunity Online, Business Opportunity Online checks the business license, the franchiser’s registration form, the trade mark certificate and other relevant documents to verify the content of the advertisement. The Internet information services regulations and the anti unfair competition regulations have similar requirements for Internet advertisement publishers. Based on the laws and regulations above, it is our view that there is neither any mandatory requirement that Business Opportunity Online bear any responsibility for the franchiser’s business activities, nor any valid action or investigation that can be brought by the consumer or the government against Business Opportunity Online based on the franchiser’s business activities. Nevertheless, the possibility remains that Business Opportunity Online may be required to assume civil and administrative responsibilities subject to further investigation or enforcement by competent authorities.

If advertisers or the viewing public do not accept, or lose interest in, our advertising platforms, our revenues may be negatively affected and our business may not expand or be successful.

The Internet and bank kiosk advertising platforms in China are relatively new and their potential is uncertain. We compete for advertising revenues with many forms of more established advertising media. Our success depends on the acceptance of our advertising platforms by advertisers and their continuing interest in these media as part of their advertising strategies. Our success also depends on the viewing public’s continued receptiveness towards our advertising models. Advertisers may elect not to use our services if they believe that viewers are not receptive to our platforms or that our platforms do not provide sufficient value as an effective advertising medium. If a substantial number of advertisers lose interest in advertising on our platforms, we will be unable to generate sufficient revenues and cash flows to operate our business, and our financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.

We operate in the advertising industry, which is particularly sensitive to changes in economic conditions and advertising trends.

Demand for advertising resulting advertising spending by our clients, is particularly sensitive to changes in general economic conditions. For example, advertising expenditures typically decrease during periods of economic downturn. Advertisers may reduce the money they spend to advertise on our advertising platforms for a number of reasons, including:

a general decline in economic conditions;

a decline in economic conditions in the particular cities where we conduct business;

a decision to shift advertising expenditures to other available less expensive advertising media; and

a decline in advertising spending in general.

A decrease in demand for advertising media in general, and for our advertising services in particular, would materially and adversely affect our ability to generate revenues, and have a material and adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

If the Internet and, in particular, Internet marketing are not broadly adopted in China, our ability to generate revenue and sustain profitability from the website 28.com could be materially and adversely affected.

Our future revenues and profits from our online advertising agency business that we operate through 28.com are dependent in part upon advertisers in China increasingly accepting the use of the Internet as a marketing channel, which is at an early stage in China. Penetration rates for personal computers, the Internet and broadband in China are all relatively low compared to those in more developed countries. Furthermore, many Chinese Internet users are not accustomed to using the Internet for e-commerce or as a medium for other transactions. Many of our current and potential SME clients have limited experience with the Internet as a marketing channel, and have not historically devoted a significant portion of their marketing budgets to the Internet marketing and promotion. As a result, they may not consider the Internet as effective in promoting their products and services as traditional print and broadcast media.

We face significant competition, and if we do not compete successfully against new and existing competitors, we may lose our market share, and our profitability may be adversely affected.

Increased competition could reduce our profitability and result in a loss of market share. Some of our existing and potential competitors may have competitive advantages, such as significantly greater financial, marketing or other resources, and may successfully mimic and adopt our business models. Moreover, increased competition will provide advertisers with a wider range of media and advertising service alternatives, which could lead to lower prices and decreased revenues, gross margins and profits. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete against new or existing competitors.

Failure to manage our growth could strain our management, operational and other resources, which could materially and adversely affect our business and prospects.

We have been expanding our operations and plan to continue to expand rapidly in China. To meet the demand of advertisers for a broader coverage, we must continue to expand our platforms by showing our TV productions and advertisements on more television stations, and expanding the bank kiosk platforms in terms of numbers and locations. The continued growth of our business has resulted in, and will continue to result in, substantial demand on our management, operational and other resources. In particular, the management of our growth will require, among other things:

increased sales and sales support activities;

improved administrative and operational systems;

enhancements to our information technology system;

stringent cost controls and sufficient working capital;

strengthening of financial and management controls; and

hiring and training of new personnel.

As we continue this effort, we may incur substantial costs and expend substantial resources. We may not be able to manage our current or future operations effectively and efficiently or compete effectively in new markets we enter. If we are not able to manage our growth successfully, our business and prospects would be materially and adversely affected.

Key employees are essential to growing our business.

Handong Cheng, our chief executive officer and president, Zhige Zhang, our chief financial officer and Xuanfu Liu, our chief operating officer are essential to our ability to continue to grow our business. They have established relationships within the industries in which we operate. If they were to leave us, our growth strategy might be hindered, which could limit our ability to increase revenue. However, the Company currently has no employment agreements with key employees.

In addition, we face competition for attracting skilled personnel. If we fail to attract and retain qualified personnel to meet current and future needs, this could slow our ability to grow our business, which could result in a decrease in market share.

We may need additional capital and we may not be able to obtain it at acceptable terms, or at all, which could adversely affect our liquidity and financial position.

We may need additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments. If these sources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations and liquidity.

Our ability to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including:

investors’ perception of, and demand for, securities of alternative advertising media companies;

conditions of the U.S. and other capital markets in which we may seek to raise funds;

our future results of operations, financial condition and cash flow;

PRC governmental regulation of foreign investment in advertising service companies in China;

economic, political and other conditions in China; and

PRC governmental policies relating to foreign currency borrowings.

Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights could have a negative impact on our business.

We believe our brand, trade name, copyrights, domain name and other intellectual property are critical to our success. The success of our business depends in part upon our continued ability to use our brand, trade names and copyrights to further develop and increase brand awareness. The infringement of our trade names and copyrights could diminish the value of our brand and its market acceptance, competitive advantages or goodwill. In addition, our information and operational systems, which have not been patented or otherwise registered as our property, are a key component of our competitive advantage and our growth strategy.

Monitoring and preventing the unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult. The measures we take to protect our brand, trade names, copyrights, domain name and other intellectual property rights may not be adequate to prevent their unauthorized use by third parties. Furthermore, application of laws governing intellectual property rights in China and abroad is uncertain and evolving, and could involve substantial risks to us. If we are unable to adequately protect our brand, trade names, copyrights, domain name and other intellectual property rights, we may lose these rights and our business may suffer materially. Further, unauthorized use of our brand, domain name or trade names could cause brand confusion among advertisers and harm our reputation. If our brand recognition decreases, we may lose advertisers and fail in our expansion strategies, and our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

We rely on computer software and hardware systems in managing our operations, the failure of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are dependent upon our computer software and hardware systems in supporting our network and managing and monitoring programs on the network. In addition, we rely on our computer hardware for the storage, delivery and transmission of the data on our network. Any system failure which interrupts the input, retrieval and transmission of data or increases the service time could disrupt our normal operation. Any failure in our computer software or hardware systems could decrease our revenues and harm our relationships with advertisers and consumers, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We do not have a majority of independent directors serving on our board of directors, which could present the potential for conflicts of interest.

We do not have a majority of independent directors serving on our board of directors. In the absence of a majority of independent directors, our executive officers could establish policies and enter into transactions without independent review and approval thereof. This could present the potential for a conflict of interest between us and our stockholders, generally, and the controlling officers, stockholders or directors.

We have limited insurance coverage.

The insurance industry in China is still at an early stage of development. Insurance companies in China offer limited insurance products. We have determined that the risks of disruption or liability from our business, the loss or damage to our property, including our facilities, equipment and office furniture, the cost of insuring for these risks, and the difficulties associated with acquiring such insurance on commercially reasonable terms make it impractical for us to have such insurance. As a result, we do not have any business liability, disruption, litigation or property insurance coverage for our operations in China except for insurance on some company owned vehicles. Any uninsured occurrence of loss or damage to property, or litigation or business disruption may result in the incurrence of substantial costs and the diversion of resources, which could have an adverse effect on our operating results.

If we are unable to establish appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, result in the restatement of our financial statements, harm our operating results, subject us to regulatory scrutiny and sanction, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the market price for shares of our Common Stock.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. We maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting, which is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

As a public company, we will have significant additional requirements for enhanced financial reporting and internal controls. We are required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and a report by our independent registered public accounting firm addressing these assessments. However, recent changes to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission have delayed the requirement for inclusion of such auditor attestation report in our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2009 until we file our annual report for the 2010 fiscal year.The process of designing and implementing effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a system of internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a public company.

We cannot assure you that we will not, in the future, identify areas requiring improvement in our internal control over financial reporting. We cannot assure you that the measures we will take to remediate any areas in need of improvement will be successful or that we will implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future as we continue our growth. If we are unable to establish appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, result in the restatement of our financial statements, harm our operating results, subject us to regulatory scrutiny and sanction, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the market price for shares of our Common Stock.

Lack of experience as officers of publicly-traded companies of our management team may hinder our ability to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff or consultants in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act’s internal controls requirements, we may not be able to obtain the independent auditor certifications that Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly-traded companies to obtain.

We will incur increased costs as a result of being a public company.

As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect these new rules and regulations to increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs and to make certain corporate activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, we will incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these new rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

Risks Relating to Regulation of Our Business and to Our Structure

If the PRC government finds that the agreements that establish the structure for operating our China business do not comply with PRC governmental restrictions on foreign investment in the advertising industry, we could be subject to severe penalties.

All of our operations are conducted through the PRC Operating Entities (as defined below), and through our contractual agreements (as defined below) with each of our PRC Operating Subsidiaries (as defined below) in China. PRC regulations require any foreign entities that invest in the advertising services industry to have at least two years of direct operations in the advertising industry outside of China. Since December 10, 2005, foreign investors have been allowed to own directly 100% of PRC companies operating an advertising business if the foreign entity has at least three years of direct operations in the advertising business outside of China or less than 100% if the foreign investor has at least two years of direct operations in the advertising industry outside of China. We do not currently directly operate an advertising business outside of China and cannot qualify under PRC regulations any earlier than two or three years after we commence any such operations outside of China or until we acquire a company that has directly operated an advertising business outside of China for the required period of time. Our PRC Operating Subsidiaries hold the requisite licenses to provide advertising services in China. Our PRC Operating Subsidiaries directly operate our advertising network. We have been and are expected to continue to be dependent on these PRC Operating Subsidiaries to operate our advertising business for the foreseeable future. We have entered into Contractual Agreements with the PRC Operating Subsidiaries, pursuant to which we, through Rise King WFOE, provide technical support and consulting services to the PRC Operating Subsidiaries. In addition, we have entered into agreements with our PRC Operating Subsidiaries and each of their shareholders which provide us with the substantial ability to control these affiliates.

If we, our existing or future PRC Operating Subsidiaries or the PRC Operating Entities are found to be in violation of any existing or future PRC laws or regulations or fail to obtain or maintain any of the required permits or approvals, the relevant PRC regulatory authorities, including the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, or SAIC, which regulates advertising companies, would have broad discretion in dealing with such violations, including:

revoking the business and operating licenses of Rise King WFOE and/or the PRC Operating Subsidiaries;

discontinuing or restricting the operations of Rise King WFOE and/or the PRC Operating Subsidiaries;

imposing conditions or requirements with which we, Rise King WFOE and/or our PRC Operating Subsidiaries may not be able to comply;

requiring us or Rise King WFOE and/or PRC Operating Subsidiaries to restructure the relevant ownership structure or operations; or

restricting or prohibiting our use of the proceeds of this offering to finance our business and operations in China.

The imposition of any of these penalties would result in a material and adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.

We rely on contractual arrangements with the PRC Operating Subsidiaries and their shareholders for our China operations, which may not be as effective in providing operational control as direct ownership.

We rely on contractual arrangements with our PRC Operating Subsidiaries and their shareholders to operate our advertising business. These contractual arrangements may not be as effective in providing us with control over the PRC Operating Subsidiaries as direct ownership. If we had direct ownership of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries, we would be able to exercise our rights as a shareholder to effect changes in the board of directors of those companies, which in turn could effect changes, subject to any applicable fiduciary obligations, at the management level. However, under the current contractual arrangements, as a legal matter, if the PRC Operating Subsidiaries or any of their subsidiaries and shareholders fail to perform its or their respective obligations under these contractual arrangements, we may have to incur substantial costs and resources to enforce such arrangements, and rely on legal remedies under PRC laws, including seeking specific performance or injunctive relief, and claiming damages, which we cannot assure you to be effective. Accordingly, it may be difficult for us to change our corporate structure or to bring claims against the PRC Operating Subsidiaries if they do not perform their obligations under its contracts with us or if any of the PRC citizens who hold the equity interest in the PRC Operating Subsidiaries do not cooperate with any such actions.

Many of these contractual arrangements are governed by PRC laws and provide for the resolution of disputes through either arbitration or litigation in the PRC. Accordingly, these contracts would be interpreted in accordance with PRC laws and any disputes would be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. The legal environment in the PRC is not as developed as in other jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit our ability to enforce these contractual arrangements. In the event we are unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, we may not be able to exert effective control over our operating entities, and our ability to conduct our business may be negatively affected.

Contractual arrangements we have entered into among the PRC Operating Subsidiaries may be subject to scrutiny by the PRC tax authorities and a finding that we owe additional taxes or are ineligible for our tax exemption, or both, could substantially increase our taxes owed, and reduce our net income and the value of your investment.

Under PRC law, arrangements and transactions among related parties may be subject to audit or challenge by the PRC tax authorities. If any of the transactions we have entered into among our subsidiaries and affiliated entities are found not to be on an arm’s-length basis, or to result in an unreasonable reduction in tax under PRC law, the PRC tax authorities have the authority to disallow our tax savings, adjust the profits and losses of our respective PRC entities and assess late payment interest and penalties.

If any of our PRC Operating Subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. In addition, the PRC tax authorities may require us to adjust our taxable income under the contractual arrangements with the PRC Operating Entities we currently have in place in a manner that would materially and adversely affect the PRC Operating Entities’ ability to pay dividends and other distributions to us. Furthermore, relevant PRC laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by the PRC Operating Entities only out of their retained earnings, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Under PRC laws and regulations, each of the PRC Operating Entities is also required to set aside a portion of its net income each year to fund specific reserve funds. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. In addition, subject to certain cumulative limits, the statutory general reserve fund requires annual appropriations of 10% of after-tax income to be set aside prior to payment of dividends. As a result of these PRC laws and regulations, the PRC Operating Entities are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to us whether in the form of dividends, loans or advances. Any limitation on the ability of the PRC Operating Entities to pay dividends to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our businesses, pay dividends, or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Risks Associated With Doing Business In China

There are substantial risks associated with doing business in China, as set forth in the following risk factors.

Our operations and assets in China are subject to significant political and economic uncertainties.

Changes in PRC laws and regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, imports and sources of supply, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Under its current leadership, the Chinese government has been pursuing economic reform policies that encourage private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. There is no assurance, however, that the Chinese government will continue to pursue these policies, or that it will not significantly alter these policies from time to time without notice.

We derive a substantial portion of ours sales from China.

Substantially all of our sales are generated from China. We anticipate that sales of our products in China will continue to represent a substantial proportion of our total sales in the near future. Any significant decline in the condition of the PRC economy could adversely affect consumer demand of our products, among other things, which in turn would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Currency fluctuations and restrictions on currency exchange may adversely affect our business, including limiting our ability to convert Chinese Renminbi into foreign currencies and, if Chinese Renminbi were to decline in value, reducing our revenue in U.S. dollar terms.

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar and our operations in China use their local currency as their functional currencies. Substantially all of our revenue and expenses are in Chinese Renminbi. We are subject to the effects of exchange rate fluctuations with respect to any of these currencies. For example, the value of the Renminbi depends to a large extent on Chinese government policies and China’s domestic and international economic and political developments, as well as supply and demand in the local market. Since 1994, the official exchange rate for the conversion of Renminbi to the U.S. dollar had generally been stable and the Renminbi had appreciated slightly against the U.S. dollar. However, on July 21, 2005, the Chinese government changed its policy of pegging the value of Chinese Renminbi to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, Chinese Renminbi may fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. As a result of this policy change, Chinese Renminbi appreciated approximately 2.5% against the U.S. dollar in 2005 and 3.3% in 2006. It is possible that the Chinese government could adopt a more flexible currency policy, which could result in more significant fluctuation of Chinese Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. We can offer no assurance that Chinese Renminbi will be stable against the U.S. dollar or any other foreign currency.

The income statements of our operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in each applicable period. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currencies denominated transactions results in reduced revenue, operating expenses and net income for our international operations. Similarly, to the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions results in increased revenue, operating expenses and net income for our international operations. We are also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as we convert the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars in consolidation. If there is a change in foreign currency exchange rates, the conversion of the foreign subsidiaries’ financial statements into U.S. dollars will lead to a translation gain or loss which is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. In addition, we have certain assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the relevant entity’s functional currency. Changes in the functional currency value of these assets and liabilities create fluctuations that will lead to a transaction gain or loss. We have not entered into agreements or purchased instruments to hedge our exchange rate risks, although we may do so in the future. The availability and effectiveness of any hedging transaction may be limited and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exchange rate risks.

Although Chinese governmental policies were introduced in 1996 to allow the convertibility of Chinese Renminbi into foreign currency for current account items, conversion of Chinese Renminbi into foreign exchange for capital items, such as foreign direct investment, loans or securities, requires the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, which is under the authority of the People’s Bank of China. These approvals, however, do not guarantee the availability of foreign currency conversion. We cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain all required conversion approvals for our operations or that Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose greater restrictions on the convertibility of Chinese Renminbi in the future. Because a significant amount of our future revenue may be in the form of Chinese Renminbi, our inability to obtain the requisite approvals or any future restrictions on currency exchanges could limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in Chinese Renminbi to fund our business activities outside of China, or to repay foreign currency obligations, including our debt obligations, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations

We may have limited legal recourse under PRC laws if disputes arise under our contracts with third parties.

The Chinese government has enacted laws and regulations dealing with matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. However, their experience in implementing, interpreting and enforcing these laws and regulations is limited, and our ability to enforce commercial claims or to resolve commercial disputes is unpredictable. If our new business ventures are unsuccessful, or other adverse circumstances arise from these transactions, we face the risk that the parties to these ventures may seek ways to terminate the transactions, or, may hinder or prevent us from accessing important information regarding the financial and business operations of these acquired companies. The resolution of these matters may be subject to the exercise of considerable discretion by agencies of the Chinese government, and forces unrelated to the legal merits of a particular matter or dispute may influence their determination. Any rights we may have to specific performance, or to seek an injunction under PRC law, in either of these cases, are severely limited, and without a means of recourse by virtue of the Chinese legal system, we may be unable to prevent these situations from occurring. The occurrence of any such events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We must comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

We are required to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits U.S. companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Foreign companies, including some of our competitors, are not subject to these prohibitions. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in mainland China. If our competitors engage in these practices, they may receive preferential treatment from personnel of some companies, giving our competitors an advantage in securing business or from government officials who might give them priority in obtaining new licenses, which would put us at a disadvantage. Although we inform our personnel that such practices are illegal, we can not assure you that our employees or other agents will not engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties.

Changes in foreign exchange regulations in the PRC may affect our ability to pay dividends in foreign currency or conduct other foreign exchange business.

The Renminbi is not a freely convertible currency currently, and the restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use revenues generated in Renminbi to fund our business activities outside the PRC or to make dividends or other payments in United States dollars. The PRC government strictly regulates conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies. Over the years, foreign exchange regulations in the PRC have significantly reduced the government’s control over routine foreign exchange transactions under current accounts. In the PRC, the State Administration for Foreign Exchange, or the SAFE, regulates the conversion of the Renminbi into foreign currencies. Pursuant to applicable PRC laws and regulations, foreign invested enterprises incorporated in the PRC are required to apply for “Foreign Exchange Registration Certificates.” Currently, conversion within the scope of the “current account” (e.g. remittance of foreign currencies for payment of dividends, etc.) can be effected without requiring the approval of SAFE. However, conversion of currency in the “capital account” (e.g. for capital items such as direct investments, loans, securities, etc.) still requires the approval of SAFE.

Recent PRC regulations relating to mergers and acquisitions of domestic enterprises by foreign investors may increase the administrative burden we face and create regulatory uncertainties.

On August 8, 2006, the Ministry of Commerce (the “MOC”), joined by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”), State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (the “SASAC”), the State Administration of Taxation (the “SAT”), the State Administration of Industry and Commerce (the “SAIC”), and SAFE, jointly promulgated a rule entitled the Provisions Regarding Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (the “M&A Rules”), which took effect as of September 8, 2006. This new regulation, among other things, has certain provisions that require SPVs formed for the purpose of acquiring PRC domestic companies and controlled by PRC individuals, to obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to publicly listing their securities on an overseas stock market. However, the new regulation does not expressly provide that approval from the CSRC is required for the offshore listing of a Special Purpose Vehicle or the SPV which acquires, directly or indirectly, equity interest or shares of domestic PRC entities held by domestic companies or individuals by cash payment, nor does it expressly provide that approval from CSRC is not required for the offshore listing of a SPV which has fully completed its acquisition of equity interest of domestic PRC equity prior to September 8, 2006. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC published on its official website a notice specifying the documents and materials that are required to be submitted for obtaining CSRC approval.

It is not clear whether the provisions in the new regulation regarding the offshore listing and trading of the securities of a SPV applies to an offshore company such as us which owns controlling contractual interest in the PRC Operating Entities. We believe that the M&A Rules and the CSRC approval are not required in the context of the share exchange under our transaction because (i) such share exchange is a purely foreign related transaction governed by foreign laws, not subject to the jurisdiction of PRC laws and regulations; (ii) we are not a SPV formed or controlled by PRC companies or PRC individuals; and (iii) we are owned or substantively controlled by foreigners. However, we cannot be certain that the relevant PRC government agencies, including the CSRC, would reach the same conclusion, and we still cannot rule out the possibility that CSRC may deem that the transactions effected by the share exchange circumvented the new M&A rules, the PRC Securities Law and other rules and notices.

If the CSRC or another PRC regulatory agency subsequently determines that the CSRC’s approval is required for the transaction, we may face sanctions by the CSRC or another PRC regulatory agency. If this happens, these regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in the PRC, limit our operating privileges in the PRC, delay or restrict the repatriation of the proceeds from this offering into the PRC, restrict or prohibit payment or remittance of dividends to us or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of our shares. The CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies may also take actions requiring us, or making it advisable for us, to delay or cancel the transaction.

The M&A Rules, along with foreign exchange regulations discussed in the above subsection, will be interpreted or implemented by the relevant government authorities in connection with our future offshore financings or acquisitions, and we cannot predict how they will affect our acquisition strategy. For example, our operating companies’ ability to remit dividends to us, or to engage in foreign-currency-denominated borrowings, may be conditioned upon compliance with the SAFE registration requirements by such Chinese domestic residents, over whom we may have no control. In addition, such Chinese domestic residents may be unable to complete the necessary approval and registration procedures required by the SAFE regulations. Such uncertainties may restrict our ability to implement our acquisition strategy and adversely affect our business and prospects.

The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities.

China only recently has permitted provincial and local economic autonomy and private economic activities, and, as a result, we are dependent on our relationship with the local government in the province in which we operate our business. Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties.

Future inflation in China may inhibit our activity to conduct business in China.

In recent years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid expansion and high rates of inflation. These factors have led to the adoption by Chinese government, from time to time, of various corrective measures designed to restrict the availability of credit or regulate growth and contain inflation. High inflation may in the future cause Chinese government to impose controls on credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic activity in China, and thereby harm the market for our products.

We may have difficulty establishing adequate management, legal and financial controls in the PRC.

We may have difficulty in hiring and retaining a sufficient number of qualified employees to work in the PRC. As a result of these factors, we may experience difficulty in establishing management, legal and financial controls, collecting financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and corporate records and instituting business practices that meet Western standards. We may have difficulty establishing adequate management, legal and financial controls in the PRC.

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing original actions in China based on United States or other foreign laws against us and our management.

We conduct substantially all of our operations in China and substantially all of our assets are located in China. In addition, some of our directors and executive officers reside within China. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process within the United States or elsewhere outside China upon some of our directors and senior executive officers, including with respect to matters arising under U.S. federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws. It would also be difficult for investors to bring an original lawsuit against us or our directors or executive officers before a Chinese court based on U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise. Moreover, China does not have treaties with the United States or many other countries providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgment of courts.

New PRC enterprise income tax law could adversely affect our business and our net income.

On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of the PRC passed the new Enterprise Income Tax Law (or EIT Law), which took effect on of January 1, 2008. The new EIT Law imposes a unified income tax rate of 25.0% on all companies established in China. Under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of the PRC with “de facto management bodies” within the PRC is considered as a resident enterprise and will normally be subject to the enterprise income tax at the rate of 25.0% on its global income. The new EIT Law, however, does not define the term “de facto management bodies.” If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that we should be classified as a resident enterprise, then our global income will be subject to PRC income tax at a tax rate of 25.0%.

With the introduction of the EIT Law, China has resumed imposition of a withholding tax (10.0% in the absence of a bilateral tax treaty or new domestic regulation reducing such withholding tax rate to a lower rate). Per the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement between Hong Kong and Mainland China, a Hong Kong company as the investor, which is considered a “non-resident enterprise” under the EIT Law, may enjoy the reduced withholding tax rate of 5% if it holds more than 25% equity interest in its PRC subsidiary. As China Net HK is the sole shareholder of Rise King WFOE, substantially all of our income will derive from dividends we receive from Rise King WFOE through China Net HK. When we declare dividends from the income in the PRC, we can not assure whether such dividends may be taxed at a reduced withholding tax rate of 5% per the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement between Hong Kong and Mainland China as the PRC tax authorities may regard our China Net HK as a shell company formed only for tax purposes and still deem Rise King WFOE in the PRC as the subsidiary directly owned by us. Based on the Notice on Certain Issues with respect to the Enforcement of Dividend Provisions in Tax Treaties, issued on February 20, 2009 by the State Administration of Taxation, if the relevant PRC tax authorities determine, in their discretion, that a company benefits from such reduced income tax rate due to a structure or arrangement that is primarily tax-driven, such PRC tax authorities may adjust the preferential tax treatment.

Investors should note that the new EIT Law provides only a framework of the enterprise tax provisions, leaving many details on the definitions of numerous terms as well as the interpretation and specific applications of various provisions unclear and unspecified. Any increase in our tax rate in the future could have a material adverse effect on our financial conditions and results of operations.

Under the new EIT Law, we may be classified as a “resident enterprise” of China. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and holders of our securities.

Under the new EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with its “de facto management body” in China is considered a “resident enterprise,” meaning that it can be treated the same as a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the new EIT Law defines “de facto management body” as an organization that exercises “substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties” of an enterprise. Currently no interpretation or application of the new EIT Law and its implementing rules is available, therefore it is unclear how tax authorities will determine tax residency based on the facts of each case.

If the PRC tax authorities determine that China Net is a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we will be subject to enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. This would mean that income such as interest on offering proceeds and other non-China source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Second, although under the new EIT Law and its implementing rules dividends paid to us by our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as “tax-exempt income,” we cannot guarantee that such dividends will not be subject to a 10% withholding tax, as the PRC foreign exchange control authorities, which enforce the withholding tax, have not yet issued guidance with respect to the processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes. Finally, a 10% withholding tax will be imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC shareholders.

Our Chinese operating companies are obligated to withhold and pay PRC individual income tax in respect of the salaries and other income received by their employees who are subject to PRC individual income tax. If they fail to withhold or pay such individual income tax in accordance with applicable PRC regulations, they may be subject to certain sanctions and other penalties, which could have a material adverse impact on our business.

Under PRC laws, Rise King WFOE and the PRC Operating Subsidiaries will be obligated to withhold and pay individual income tax in respect of the salaries and other income received by their employees who are subject to PRC individual income tax. Such companies may be subject to certain sanctions and other liabilities under PRC laws in case of failure to withhold and pay individual income taxes for its employees in accordance with the applicable laws.

In addition, the SAT has issued several circulars concerning employee stock options. Under these circulars, employees working in the PRC (which could include both PRC employees and expatriate employees subject to PRC individual income tax) are required to pay PRC individual income tax in respect of their income derived from exercising or otherwise disposing of their stock options. Our PRC entities will be obligated to file documents related to employee stock options with relevant tax authorities and withhold and pay individual income taxes for those employees who exercise their stock options. While tax authorities may advise us that our policy is compliant, they may change their policy, and we could be subject to sanctions.

Because Chinese laws will govern almost all of our business’ material agreements, we may not be able to enforce our rights within the PRC or elsewhere, which could result in a significant loss of business, business opportunities or capital.

The Chinese legal system is similar to a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which decided legal cases have little precedential value. Although legislation in the PRC over the past 25 years has significantly improved the protection afforded to various forms of foreign investment and contractual arrangements in the PRC, these laws, regulations and legal requirements are relatively new. Due to the limited volume of published judicial decisions, their non-binding nature, the short history since their enactments, the discrete understanding of the judges or government agencies of the same legal provision, inconsistent professional abilities of the judicators, and the inclination to protect local interest in the court rooms, interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws and regulations involve uncertainties, which could limit the legal protection available to us, and foreign investors, including you. The inability to enforce or obtain a remedy under any of our future agreements could result in a significant loss of business, business opportunities or capital and could have a material adverse impact on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all) that may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until some time after the violation. In addition, any litigation in the PRC, regardless of outcome, may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

Risks Related to the Offering and our Securities

Insiders have substantial control over us, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.

Our executive officers, directors, and principal stockholders hold approximately 87.43% of our outstanding Common Stock. Accordingly, these stockholders are able to control all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.

The Company cannot assure you that the Common Stock will become liquid or that it will be listed on a securities exchange.

Currently, the Company is eligible to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. In those venues, however, an investor may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of the common stock. In addition, if the Company failed to meet the criteria set forth in SEC regulations, various requirements would be imposed by law on broker-dealers who sell its securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such regulations may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling the Common Stock, which may further affect its liquidity. This would also make it more difficult for the Company to raise additional capital after the Offering.

There may not be sufficient liquidity in the market for our securities in order for investors to sell their securities.

There is currently only a limited public market for our Common Stock and there can be no assurance that a trading market will develop further or be maintained in the future. As of November 5, 2009, the closing bid price of our Common Stock was $3.90 per share. As of November 5, 2009, we had approximately 67 shareholders of record of our Common Stock, not including shares held in street name. In addition, during the past two years our Common Stock has had a trading range with a low price of $1.00 per share and a high price of $5.00 per share.

The market price of our Common Stock may be volatile.

The market price of our Common Stock has been and will likely continue to be highly volatile, as is the stock market in general, and the market for OTC Bulletin Board quoted stocks in particular. Some of the factors that may materially affect the market price of our Common Stock are beyond our control, such as changes in financial estimates by industry and securities analysts, conditions or trends in the industry in which we operate or sales of our common stock. These factors may materially adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock, regardless of our performance. In addition, the public stock markets have experienced extreme price and trading volume volatility. This volatility has significantly affected the market prices of securities of many companies for reasons frequently unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.

Because the Company became public by means of a reverse merger, it may not be able to attract the attention of major brokerage firms.

Additional risks may exist since the Company became public through a “reverse merger.” Securities analysts of major brokerage firms may not provide coverage of the Company since there is little incentive to brokerage firms to recommend the purchase of its Common Stock. No assurance can be given that brokerage firms will want to conduct any secondary offerings on behalf of the Company in the future.

When the registration statement becomes effective, there will be a significant number of shares of Common Stock eligible for sale, which could depress the market price of such stock.

Following the effective date of the Financing Registration Statement, a large number of shares of our Common Stock would become available for sale in the public market, which could harm the market price of the stock. Further, shares may be offered from time to time in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, and these sales may have a depressive effect as well. In general, a person who has held restricted shares for a period of six month may, upon filing a notification with the SEC on Form 144, sell common stock into the market in an amount equal to the greater of one percent of the outstanding shares or the average weekly trading volume during the last four weeks prior to such sale.

The outstanding warrants may adversely affect us in the future and cause dilution to existing stockholders.

We currently have warrants outstanding to purchase up to 4,781,056 shares of our Common Stock. These warrants have a term ranging from three years to five years and exercise price ranges from $2.50 to $3.75 per share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Exercise of the warrants may cause dilution in the interests of other stockholders as a result of the additional Common Stock that would be issued upon exercise. In addition, sales of the shares of our Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants could have a depressive effect on the price of our stock, particularly if there is not a coinciding increase in demand by purchasers of our Common Stock. Further, the terms on which we may obtain additional financing during the period any of the warrants remain outstanding may be adversely affected by the existence of these warrants as well.

Our Common Stock is considered “penny stock.”

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our Common Stock is currently less than $5.00 per share and therefore may be a “penny stock.” Brokers and dealers effecting transactions in “penny stock” must disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell the Common Stock and may affect your ability to sell shares.

The market for penny stocks has experienced numerous frauds and abuses which could adversely impact investors in our stock.

OTCBB securities are frequent targets of fraud or market manipulation, both because of their generally low prices and because OTCBB reporting requirements are less stringent than those of the stock exchanges or NASDAQ.

You should be aware that, according to the Securities and Exchange Commission, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:

control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;

manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;

“boiler room” practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons;

excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and

wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.

We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future, and any return on investment may be limited to the value of our stock.

We have never paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and any return on investment may be limited to the value of our stock. We plan to retain any future earning to finance growth.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares being offered by the Selling Stockholders, although we may receive additional proceeds of up to $15,847,552 if all of the Warrants are exercised for cash. We will not receive any additional proceeds to the extent that the Warrants are exercised by cashless exercise. The Selling Stockholders may exercise the Warrants by a cashless exercise the Warrants commencing on August 21, 2011, only if the market value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the exercise price of the applicable Warrant and the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part is not effective. We expect to use the proceeds received from the exercise of the Warrants, if any, for general working capital purposes.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and elsewhere in this prospectus are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The factors listed in the section captioned “Risk Factors,” as well as any cautionary language in this prospectus, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected. Except as may be required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events after the date of this prospectus.

Overview

Our company (formerly known as Emazing Interactive, Inc.) was incorporated in the State of Texas in April 2006 and re-domiciled to become a Nevada corporation in October 2006. From the date of our company’s incorporation until June 26, 2009, when our company consummated the Share Exchange (as defined below), our company’s activities were primarily concentrated in web server access and company branding in hosting web based e-games.

On June 26, 2009, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), with (i) China Net Online Media Group Limited, a company organized under the laws of British Virgin Islands (“China Net BVI”), (ii) China Net BVI’s shareholders, Allglad Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Allglad”), Growgain Limited, a British Virgin Islands company ("Growgain"), Rise King Investments Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Rise King BVI”), Star (China) Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Star”), Surplus Elegant Investment Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Surplus”), Clear Jolly Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Clear” and together with Allglad, Growgain, Rise King BVI, Star and Surplus, the “China Net BVI Shareholders”), who together owned shares constituting 100% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of China Net BVI (the “China Net BVI Shares”) and (iii) G. Edward Hancock, our principal stockholder at such time. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the China Net BVI Shareholders transferred to us all of the China Net BVI Shares in exchange for the issuance of 13,790,800 shares (the “Exchange Shares”) of our common stock (the “Share Exchange”). As a result of the Share Exchange, China Net BVI became our wholly owned subsidiary and we are now a holding company which, through certain contractual arrangements with operating companies in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), is engaged in providing advertising, marketing and communication services to small and medium companies in China.

Our wholly owned subsidiary, China Net BVI, was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on August 13, 2007. In April 11, 2008, China Net BVI became the parent holding company of a group of companies comprised of CNET Online Technology Limited, a Hong Kong company (“China Net HK”), which established and is the parent company of Rise King Century Technology Development (Beijing) Co., Ltd., a wholly foreign-owned enterprise (“WFOE”) established in the PRC (“Rise King WFOE”). We refer to the transactions that resulted in China Net BVI becoming an indirect parent company of Rise King WFOE as the “Offshore Restructuring.” Through a series of contractual agreements, we operate our business in China primarily through Business Opportunity Online (Beijing) Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“Business Opportunity Online”) and Beijing CNET Online Advertising Co., Ltd. (“Beijing CNET Online”). Beijing CNET Online owns 51% of Shanghai Borongdingsi Computer Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Borongdingsi”). Business Opportunity Online, Beijing CNET Online and Shanghai Borongdingsi, were incorporated on December 8, 2004, January 27, 2003 and August 3, 2005, respectively. From time to time, we refer to them collectively as the “PRC Operating Entities.”

Through our PRC Operating Entities, we are now one of China’s leading full-service media development and advertising platforms for the small and medium enterprise (the “SME”) market. We are a service oriented business that leverages proprietary advertising technology to prepare and publish rich media enabled advertising campaigns for clients on the internet and on television. Our goal is to strengthen our position as the leading diversified media advertising provider in China. Our multi-platform advertising network consists of www.28.com, our internet advertising portal; our TV production and advertising unit, and our newly launched bank kiosk advertising unit, which is primarily used as an advertising platform for clients in the financial services industry. Using proprietary technology, we provide additional services as a lead generator. We are also a re-seller of internet and television advertising space that we purchase in large volumes from other well-known internet portals.

Recent Developments

On August 21, 2009, we entered into a securities purchase agreement, with several investors, including institutional, accredited and non-US persons and entities (the “Investors”), pursuant to which we sold units, comprised of Series A Preferred Stock, and two series of warrants, for a purchase price of $2.50 per unit and gross proceeds of approximately $10.3 million. Net proceeds from the Financing were approximately $9.5 million. We sold 4,121,600 units in the aggregate, which included (i) 4,121,600 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) Series A-1 Warrants to purchase 2,060,800 shares of our Common Stock, at an exercise price of $3.00 per share with a three-year term, and (ii) Series A-2 Warrants to purchase 2,060,800 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.75 with a five-year term. In connection with the Financing, we granted to TriPoint Global Equities, LLC warrants to purchase 329,728 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, 164,864 at an exercise price of $3.00 and 164,864 at an exercise price of $3.75. The warrants expire on August 20, 2014.

In connection with the Financing, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Investors in which we agreed to file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A-1 Warrants and the Series A-2 Warrants, thirty (30) days after the closing of the Financing. We have agreed to use our best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective within 150 calendar days after filing, or 180 calendar days after filing in the event the Registration Statement is subject to a “full review” by the SEC.

We are required to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until such date as is the earlier of the date when all of the securities covered by that registration statement have been sold or the date on which such securities may be sold without any restriction pursuant to Rule 144 (the “Financing Effectiveness Period”). We will pay liquidated damages of 2% of each holder’s initial investment in the Units sold in the Financing per month, payable in cash, up to a maximum of 10%, if the Registration Statement is not filed or declared effective within the foregoing time periods or ceases to be effective prior to the expiration of the Financing Effectiveness Period. However, no liquidated damages shall be paid with respect to any securities being registered that we are not permitted to include in the Registration Statement due to the SEC’s application of Rule 415.

The issuance of the units was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Regulation D or Regulation S promulgated thereunder. We have relied on the status of the Investors as (i) accredited investors under Regulation D, or (ii) non-US persons under Regulation S, in claiming the exemption from registration of the units, and the securities underlying the units sold in the Financing.

Factors affecting our Operating Results

General Economic Conditions. The advertising industry is particularly sensitive to changes in economic conditions. For example, expenditures by our clients typically decrease during periods of economic downturn.

Size and Growth Potential of the Chinese Advertising Market. China has the largest advertising market in Asia, excluding Japan. It also one of the fastest growing advertising markets in the world, at a CAGR of 12.8% from 2007 to 2011. The rapid and sustained economic growth and increases in disposable and consumption in China is one of the principal drivers of this growth. The Chinese advertising market has significant potential for future growth due to relatively low levels of advertising spending per capita and as a percentage to GDP as compared to more developed countries or regions.

Growth Potential of Internet Advertising Industry, Particularly in China. According to Zenith Optimedia, the Internet is the only advertising medium that is expected to experience an increase in expenditures in 2009. This growth is expected to stem primarily from the use of search engine, rich media, video and game embedded advertisements. We believe that the Internet advertising market in China also has significant potential for future growth due to high demand from the rapid development of franchise and chain store business and the SMEs.

Innovative Product Offerings. Our competitive landscape requires us to maintain a flow of product offerings which can both increase clients’ convenience and ease of use while delivering successful advertising results. We believe that, by offering bundled services of Internet ads, television shows, and other services, we simplify the targeting process for our clients and enable them to reach a wide range of customers with complementary and mutually reinforcing advertising campaigns. Our ability to continue to develop these products and to maintain the competitive strength of our brand and services is dependent upon our ability recruit and retain talent, as well as the relative strength of the product offerings that may developed by our competitors.

Cross-Selling. Our maximization of revenue and cost synergies is dependent upon our level of success in cross-selling services to our clients. Our objective is to increase cross-selling by developing additional flexible, bundled advertising packages offering bundling and volume discounts.

Expanding Categories of Advertisers. By targeting new categories of advertisers beyond SMEs, such as the financial industry advertisers using our bank kiosk product line, we believe that we can more fully leverage the growth opportunities of our businesses. We intend to develop, seek out and consider strategic partnerships with respect to new products and services, as we are doing with banks in our kiosk program, to expand our customer base.

Seasonality. Our businesses experience fluctuations in quarterly performance. Traditionally, the first quarter from January to March has a lower number of sales reflected by our business due to the New Year holidays in China occurring during that period. This is traditionally a period where business activities are suspended for many people as they begin to prepare for the most important Chinese festival for the year. In addition, during the third quarter from July to August our business sees reduced revenues due to the fact that many Chinese workers and families take their annual summer leaves.

Basis of presentation, critical accounting policies and management estimates

Change of reporting entity and basis of presentation

As a result of the Share Exchange on June 26, 2009, the former China Net BVI shareholders own a majority of our common stock. The transaction was regarded as a reverse merger whereby China Net BVI was considered to be the accounting acquirer as its shareholders retained control of our company after the Share Exchange, although we are the legal parent company. The share exchange was treated as a recapitalization of our company. As such, China Net BVI (and its historical financial statements) is the continuing entity for financial reporting purposes. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange, Emazing Interactive, Inc. was delivered with zero assets and zero liabilities at time of closing. Following the Share Exchange, we changed our name from Emazing Interactive, Inc. to ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. Our financial statements have been prepared as if China Net BVI had always been the reporting company and then on the share exchange date, had changed its name and reorganized its capital stock.

Critical accounting policies and management estimates

Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our company, and its subsidiaries and Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”). All transactions and balances between us, our subsidiaries and VIEs have been eliminated upon consolidation. We prepared our interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by US GAAP for completing annual financial statements. However, management believes that the disclosures are adequate to ensure the information presented is not misleading. We prepare our financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the financial reporting period. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. We consider the policies discussed below to be critical to an understanding of our financial statements.

Foreign currency translation

Our functional currency is United States dollars (“US$”), and the functional currency of our Hong Kong subsidiary is Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”). The functional currency of our PRC operating entities is the Renminbi (“RMB’), and PRC is the primary economic environment in which our businesses operate.

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of our PRC operating entities, which are prepared using the RMB, are translated into our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated using average rates prevailing during each reporting period, and shareholders' equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity.

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The resulting exchange differences are included in the determination of net income of the consolidated financial statements for the respective periods.

Revenue recognition

Our revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB 104”). In accordance with SAB 104, revenues are recognized when the four of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the service has been rendered, (iii) the fees are fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

Advertising Revenue

Advertising revenues include revenues from reselling of advertising time purchased from TV stations and internet advertising, reselling of internet advertising spaces and other advertisement related resources. No revenue from advertising-for-advertising barter transactions was recognized because the transactions did not meet the criteria for recognition in EITF abstract issue no 99-17. Advertising contracts establish the fixed price and advertising services to be provided. Pursuant to advertising contracts, our company provides advertisement placements in different formats, including but not limited to banners, links, logos, buttons, rich media and content integration. Revenue is recognized ratably over the period the advertising is provided and, as such, our company considers the services to have been delivered. We treat all elements of advertising contracts as a single unit of accounting for revenue recognition purposes. Based upon our credit assessments of customers prior to entering into contracts, we determine if collectability is reasonably assured. In situations where collectability is not deemed to be reasonably assured, we recognize revenue upon receipt of cash from customers, only after services have been provided and all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met.

Taxation

1.	Income tax

We follow the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between of the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. We record a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income statement in the period that includes the enactment date. We had no deferred tax assets and liabilities recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and for the year ended December 31, 2008.

We adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures. For the six month ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and for the year ended December 31, 2008, we did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions and did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

i) We are incorporated in the State of Nevada. Under the current law of Nevada we are not subject to state corporate income tax. We became a holding company and do not conduct any substantial operations of our own after the Share Exchange. No provision for federal corporate income tax has been made in our financial statements as have assessable profits for the six month ended June 30, 2009.

ii) China Net BVI was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”). Under the current law of the BVI, we are not subject to tax on income or capital gains. Additionally, upon payments of dividends by China Net BVI to us, no BVI withholding tax will be imposed.

iii) China Net HK was incorporated in Hong Kong and does not conduct any substantial operations of its own. No provision for Hong Kong profits tax have been made in our financial statements as China Net HK has no assessable profits for the six month ended June 30, 2009. Additionally, upon payments of dividends by China Net HK to its sole shareholder, China Net BVI, no Hong Kong withholding tax will be imposed.

iv) Our PRC operating entities, being incorporated in the PRC, are governed by the income tax law of the PRC and are subject to PRC enterprise income tax (“EIT”). Effective from January 1, 2008, the EIT rate of PRC was changed from 33% of to 25%, and applies to both domestic and foreign invested enterprises.

Rise King WFOE is a software company qualified by the related PRC governmental authorities and was entitled to a two-year EIT exemption from its first profitable year and a 50% reduction of its applicable EIT rate, which is 25% of its taxable income for the exceeding three years, which subjects to an application filing by the Company. Rise King WFOE had a cumulative operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2008. Rise King will file the application for an income tax exemption, if it achieves an operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Business Opportunity Online was qualified as a High and New Technology Enterprise in Beijing High-Tech Zone in 2005. In March 2007, a new enterprise income tax law (the “New EIT”) in the PRC was enacted which was effective on January 1, 2008. The New EIT applies a uniform 25% EIT rate to both foreign invested enterprises and domestic enterprises. On April 14, 2008, relevant governmental regulatory authorities released qualification criteria, application procedures and assessment processes for “High and New Technology Enterprise” status under the New EIT which would entitle qualified and approved entities to a favorable statutory tax rate of 15%. Business Opportunity Online has not obtained the approval of its reassessment of the qualification as a “High and New Technology Enterprise” under the New EIT as of June 30, 2009. Accordingly, Business Opportunity Online accounted for its current income tax using a tax rate of 25% for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and the year ended December 31, 2008. If Business Opportunity Online is able to re-qualify as a “High and New Technology Enterprise”, it will be entitled to the preferential tax rate of 15%. Business Opportunity Online will file the application for tax refund to the tax authorities for the fiscal year 2009 after it obtains the approval for its High and New Technology Enterprise qualification.

The applicable income tax rate for CNET Online Beijing was 25% for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and the year ended December 31, 2008.

The New EIT also imposed a 10% withholding income tax for dividends distributed by a foreign invested enterprise to its immediate holding company outside China, which were exempted under the previous enterprise income tax law and rules. A lower withholding tax rate will be applied if there is a tax treaty arrangement between mainland China and the jurisdiction of the foreign holding company. Holding companies in Hong Kong, for example, will be subject to a 5% rate. Rise King WFOE is owned by an intermediate holding company in Hong Kong and will be entitled to the 5% preferential withholding tax rate upon distribution of the dividends to this intermediate holding company.

2.	Business tax and relevant surcharges

Revenue generated from our advertisement services are subject to 5.5% business tax and 3% cultural industry development surcharge of the gross service income. Revenue generated from our TV advertisement segment is subject to 5.5% business tax and 3% cultural industry development surcharge of the net service income after deducting amount paid to ending media promulgators. Revenue generated from our internet technical support services is subjected to 5.5% business tax. Business tax charged was included in cost of sales.

Share-based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation arrangements using the fair value method in accordance with the provisions of the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No, 123 (revised 2004) (Share-Based Payment) (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R is a revision of SFAS 123 (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation), and supersedes Accounting Principles Beard (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees). SFAS 123R requires that the fair value of share awards issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled after implementation, under share-based payment arrangements, be measured as of the date the award is issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled. The resulting cost is then recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive income over the service period.

We periodically issue common stock for acquisitions and services rendered. Common stock issued in these circumstances is valued at the estimated fair market value, as determined by the management and board of directors. Our management and the board of directors consider market price quotations, recent stock offering prices and other factors in determining fair market value for purposes of valuing the common stock.

Reverse merger and common stock (restatement of the stockholders’ equity)

Pursuant to SEC Manual Item 2.6.5.4 “Reverse Acquisitions”, “in a reverse acquisition the historical shareholder’s equity of the accounting acquirer prior to the merger is retroactively restated (a recapitalization) for the equivalent number of shares received in the merger after giving effect to any difference in par value of the registrant’s and the accounting acquirer’s stock by an offset in paid in capital.” Pursuant to the terms of Share Exchange Agreement, the China Net BVI shareholders transferred to us all of the China Net BVI shares in exchange for the issuance of 13,790,800 shares of our common stock. Accordingly, we reclassified our common stock and additional paid-in-capital accounts for the year ended December 31, 2008 accordingly.

Total Revenues: Our total revenues increased significantly to US$ 19.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 6.7 million for the same period of 2008. For the second quarter of 2009, our total revenues also increased significantly to US$ 9.4 million from US$ 5.2 million for the same period of 2008.

We derive the majority of our advertising service revenues from the sale of advertising space and provision of the related technical support on our portal website www.28.com; and from the sale of advertising time purchased from different TV stations to unrelated third parties and to some of our related parties. We report our advertising revenue between related and unrelated parties because historically about 5%-10% of our advertising service revenues came from clients related to some of our shareholders of our PRC operating entities. Our advertising services to related parties were provided in the ordinary course of business on the same terms as those provided to our unrelated advertising clients on an arm’s-length basis. We expect that our internet advertising service revenue and TV advertising service revenue will continue to be the primary source and constitute the substantial majority of our revenues for the foreseeable future.

Our advertising service revenues are recorded net of any sales discounts. These discounts include volume discounts and other customary incentives offered to our advertising clients, including additional advertising time for their advertisements if we have unused places available in our website and represent the difference between our official list price and the amount we charge our advertising clients.

We typically sign advertising contracts with our advertising clients that require us to place the advertisements on our portal website for specified places and specified periods; or place the advertisements during our purchased advisement time in specific TV programs for specified periods. We recognize revenues as the advertisement airs over the contractual term based on the schedule agreed upon with our clients.

We achieved a significant increase (about 80%) in internet advertising revenues to US$ 7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 4.4 million for the same period of 2008. This is primarily as a result of (1) the successful brand building effort for www.28.com we made in 2007 and 2008 both on TV and in other well-known portal websites in China; (2) more mature client service technologies; and (3) a more experienced sale team.

We also achieved a significant revenue increase (about 522%) in TV advertising, a business that we started in May 2008, to US$ 10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 1.7 million for the same period in 2008. We generated this US$ 10 million of TV advertising revenue by selling about 14,000 minutes of advertising time we purchased from about ten provincial TV stations.

Our resale of internet advertising resources is also a segment that we launched in May 2008. This business is mainly comprised of our resale of a portion of the internet resources that we purchase from other portal websites to our existing internet advertising clients, in order to promote our existing clients’ businesses through sponsored search, search engine traffic generation techniques and portal resources of other well-known portal websites. We achieved US$ 0.8 million of this revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.6 million for the same period of 2008. We do not consider this segment to be a core business and revenue source, because it does not promote the www.28.com brand and generates low to even negative margin due to the high purchase cost of internet resources from other well-known portal websites.

As of June 30, 2009, the bank kiosks advertising business is still in the test-run stage. We will spend more resources to expand the bank kiosks advertising business in the second half year of 2009 through further client and central control system development.

Cost of revenues: Our cost of revenues consists of costs directly related to the offering of our advertising services. The following table sets forth our cost of revenues, divided into four segments, by amount and gross profit ratio for the periods indicated, with inter-segment transactions eliminated:

Our total cost of revenues increased significantly to US$ 12 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 5 million for the same period of 2008. For the second quarter of 2009, our total cost of revenues also increased significantly to US$ 5.6 million from US$ 3.6 million for the same period of 2008. These increases in costs were in line with the significant increase of our total revenues for the above periods.

Our cost of revenues related to the offering of our advertising services mainly consists of internet resources purchased from other portal websites, technical services related to lead generation, sponsored search resources purchased, TV advertisement time costs purchased from TV stations, and business taxes and surcharges.

Internet resources cost is the largest component of our cost of revenue for internet advertisement revenue. We purchased these resources from other well-known portal websites in China, such as: Baidu, Tengxun (QQ), Google, 163.com, Sina and Sohu, to help our internet advertisement clients to get better exposure and to generate more visits from their advertisements placed on our portal website. We accomplish these objectives though sponsored search, advanced tracking, advanced traffic generation technologies, and search engine optimization technologies in connection with the well-known portal websites indicated above. Our internet resources cost for internet advertising revenue was US$ 2.1 million and US$ 2.2 million for the six months ended 2009 and 2008, respectively, and US$ 1.3 million and US$ 0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Our average gross profit ratio for internet advertising services is about from 70%-80%. We had a relatively lower gross profit ratio, 50%, for the six months ended June 30, 2008, mainly as a result of the fact that we had not yet generated a stable client base at that time. With relatively limited revenue generated, the cost spent in the first six months of 2008 was not yet offset by an internet advertising business that had achieved the economy of scale that we had in the first six months of 2009.

TV advertisement time cost is the largest component of our cost of revenue for TV advertisement revenue. We purchase TV advertisement time from about ten different provincial TV stations and resell it to our TV advertisement clients through infomercials produced by us. Our TV advertisement time cost was US$ 9 million and US$ 1.5 million for the six months ended 2009 and 2008, respectively, and US$ 3.9 million and US$ 1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, which were in line with the increase of our TV advertising revenue for the above mentioned periods. Our average gross profit ratio for TV advertising business is about 15%.

Our resale of internet advertising resources is also a segment that we launched in May 2008. We purchase advertising resources from other portal websites (such as Sina, Sohu, Baidu, 163, and Google, etc.) in large volumes, allowing us to enjoy a more favorable discount on rates. We normally purchase these internet resources for providing value-added services to our internet advertising clients on our own portal website www.28.com. However, besides placing advertisements on www.28.com, some of our advertising clients also want to use other direct channels for their promotions, so they purchase internet resources from us because, through us, they have access to lower rates as compared with market price. The gross profit ratio for this business is relatively low (about 3%-5%) compared with our other segments. In 2008, with less experience in running an internet advertising business on www.28.com, we over purchased internet resources and could not use the resources to generate sufficient revenue to cover our costs due to our lack of a stable client base at that time. That is the main reason for the negative gross margin we had in this business sector for the six months ended June 30, 2008. However, this situation improved significantly in the second half year of 2008, because we successfully increased our client base at that time, and brought more revenue into this business sector accordingly.

Gross Profit: As a result of the foregoing, our gross profit was US$ 7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to US$ 1.7 million for the same period of 2008, and US$ 3.8 million and US$ 1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. According to our past experience, our comprehensive gross margin for the four segments of our business is about 35%-40%.

Operating Expenses and Net Income: Our operating expenses consist of selling expenses, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses. The following tables set forth our operating expenses, divided into their major categories by amount and as a percentage of our total revenues for the periods indicated.

Selling expenses		1,166		12	%		388		7	%

Research and development expenses		164		2	%		34		1	%
Total operating expenses		1,898		20	%		642		12	%

Operating Expenses: Our operating expenses increased significantly to US$ 3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 1 million for the same period of 2008, and increased to US$ 1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.6 million for the same period of 2008.

Selling expenses: Selling expenses increased to US$ 2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.6 million for the same period of 2008, and increased to US$ 1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.4 million for the same period of 2008. The increase of our selling expenses were mainly due to (1) increase of brand development expense for www.28.com; (2) increase of staff performance bonus due to increase of our revenue; (3) increase of travelling expenses and other marketing expense due to expansion of our revenue; and (4) increase of staff salary and benefit due to expansion of our sales force.

Our selling expenses primarily consist of brand development advertising expenses we pay to TV stations for the television promotion of www.28.com, other advertising and promotional expenses, staff salaries, benefit and performance bonuses, website server hosting and broadband leasing expenses, and travel and communication expenses. Among the selling expenses, our website brand development expenses on television accounted for 70%-80% of the total selling expenses for each of three and six month periods in 2008 and 2009. As we continue to expand our client base, we will increase our sales force accordingly, which will result in an increase in selling expenses. In general, we expect selling expenses to remain relatively stable as a percentage of total revenues.

General and administrative expenses: general and administrative expenses increased to US$ 0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.4 million for the same period of 2008, and increased to US$ 0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.2 million for the same period of 2008. The increase in our general and administrative expenses was mainly due to (1) the increase in staff salaries and benefits due to expansion of the business; (2) the increase in office expenses, entertainment expenses, and travel expenses due to expansion of the business; (3) the increase in professional services charges related to reverse merger transaction, and (4) the increase in share-based compensation expenses recognized for of the issuance of our common stock in exchange for professional services. We recognized an aggregate of US$ 150,000 in compensation expenses in the second quarter of 2009 for our issuance of common stock to Tripoint Capital Advisors, LLC and Richever Limited for the professional services provided by them or their affiliates. We have US$ 18,000 in the aggregate of unrecognized share-based compensation expenses relating to our issuance of common stock to our investor relations service provider, J&M Group, LLC, that is subject to vesting provisions. This compensation cost will be expensed as the common stock vests.

Our general and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries and benefits for management, accounting and administrative personnel, office rentals, depreciation of office equipment, professional service fees, maintenance, utilities and other office expenses. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in future periods as we hire additional personnel and incur additional costs in connection with the expansion of our business and incur increased professional services costs in connection with disclosure requirements under applicable securities laws, and our efforts to continuing to improve our internal control systems in-line with the expansion of our business.

Research and development expenses: Research and development expenses increased to US$ 0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.06 million for the same period of 2008. This change was mainly due to the increase of development cost to our client services based internet technology in 2008.

Our research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and benefits for the research and development staff, equipment depreciation expenses, and office utilities and supplies allocated to our research and development department. We expect that our research and development expenses will increase in future period as we will expand and optimize our portal website and upgrade our advertising management software.

Operating Profit (Loss): As a result of the foregoing, our operating profit increased significantly to US$ 3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.7 million for the same period of 2008, and increased to US$ 1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.9 million for the same period of 2008.

Interest Income: Our interest income increased to US$ 0.005 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.002 million for the same period of 2008, primarily as a result of higher cash and cash equivalent balances generated from our operating and financing activities.

Other Income and Other Expenses: Other income and other expenses represent miscellaneous non-operating related income and expenses occurred.

Income Taxes: We recognized an income tax expense of US$ 0.96 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to US$ 0.2 million for the same period of 2008.

Net Income: As a result of the foregoing, our net income amounted to US$ 2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to US$ 0.5 million for the same period of 2008. And we achieved a net income of US$ 1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to US$ 0.7 million for the same period of 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents represent cash on hand and deposits held at call with banks. We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of US$3.5 million.

Our liquidity needs include (i) net cash used in operating activities that consists of (a) cash required to fund the initial build-out and continued expansion of our network and (b) our working capital needs, which include advanced payment for advertising time purchase from TV station and for internet resources providers, payment of our operating expenses and financing of our accounts receivable; and (ii) net cash used in investing activities that consists of the investments in computers and other office equipments. To date, we have financed our liquidity need primarily through proceeds from our operating activities.

The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for the periods indicated

	Six months ended June 30,
	2009			2008
	(Unaudited)			(Unaudited)
	Amount in thousands of US dollars

Net cash provided by operating activities		2,711			513

Effect of foreign currency exchange rate changes on cash		7			73
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents		823			1,917

Net cash provided by operating activities: Our net cash provided by operating activities increased to US$ 2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.5 million for the same period of 2008. This is mainly resulting from the increase in our net profit.

Net cash used in investing activities: Our net cash used in investing activities increased to US$ 0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from US$ 0.03 million for the same period of 2008. This is because, during 2009, our company purchased more computers and office equipment as a result of the increase in our staff.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities: Our net cash used in financing activities increased to US$ 1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared with a net cash provided in financing activities amounting US$ 1.4 million for the same period of 2008. Our net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was mainly a repayment of the short-term loan we borrowed from third parties in 2008 which amounted to US$ 1.2 million. We also used US$ 0.3 million to cancel and retire 4,400,000 shares of our common stock immediately prior to the reverse merger transaction. Net cash provided in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was mainly from short-term loan we borrowed from third parties in that period.

Results of Operations

Total Revenues: Our total revenues increased significantly from US$7.6 million in 2007 to US$21.5 million in 2008. This increase of approximately 183% was mainly the result of the following factors:

Our new TV advertising services segment began in May 2008 and resulted in roughly US$7 million revenue in 2008. We generated this US$7 million of TV advertising revenue by selling about 15,000 minutes of advertising time that we purchased from about ten provincial TV stations to about 230-240 of our TV advertisement clients in 2008. Approximately 60 percent of our TV advertising clients were existing Internet advertising clients. The other 40 percent were new clients that were developed by our sales team.

Our Internet advertising revenues also increased by over 4% to US$11.3 million in 2008 from US$7.6 million in 2007. This was primarily the result of a successful brand building effort for 28.com that started in 2007 using both TV and the other well-known portal websites in China, more mature client service technologies, and a more experienced sale team.

In May 2008, we initiated an Internet advertisement agency that produced US$3 million of revenue. This business unit focuses on the re-sale certain Internet resources that are purchased from other portal websites. These resources include sponsored search, search engine traffic generation techniques and other portal resources to help our clients promote their businesses. Although this business contributed about 14% of our total revenue in 2008, it is not considered a core business since it does not contribute in the brand building of 28.com and has low or even negative margins due to the high purchase cost of these Internet resources.

Cost of revenues: Our total cost of revenues increased significantly to US$13.8 million in 2008 from US$ 4.7 million in 2007. This increase of approximately 194% was mainly the result of the following factors:

Our Internet resources cost for Internet advertising revenue was approximately US$4.7 million and US$4.7 million (excluding business tax) in 2008 and 2007 respectively. In 2007, because we were formerly an Internet advertising agency that resold Internet advertising space on third-party site before we established our own portal website, we had less experience in running an Internet advertising business on our own portal website 28.com. In 2007, due to our relative inexperience, we over-purchased Internet resources and could not use the resources to generate sufficient revenue due to the lack of a stable client base. However, as we began developing 28.com and gained a better understanding of the Internet advertising marketplace, we changed our strategy and used these over-purchased resources to promote 28.com to many well known Chinese portal websites (including Sina, Baidu, Sohu, QQ, etc.). We believe that this resulted in the significant increase of our revenue and client base in the following year 2008.

Our TV advertisement business launched in May 2008. As a result, our TV advertising time purchased from TV stations increased from zero in 2007 to roughly US$5.9 million (excluding business tax) in 2008. Management believes that this increase is in line with new revenue generated by our TV advertising business unit.

In May 2008, we also launched our Internet advertisement agency. This new business unit had cost of revenues of approximately US$3.1 million (excluding business tax) in 2008. These costs were associated with Internet advertising resources that we purchased from other portal websites (including Sina, Baidu, 163 and Google.). We normally purchase these Internet resources to provide value-added services to our Internet advertising clients who use 28.com. However, besides placing advertisements on 28.com, some of our advertising clients also seek direct channels for their promotion. As such, they purchase Internet resources from us because we can provide a lower price compared with market price for these direct channels. These resold resources include portal resources on other portal website that directly link to our client’s website and sponsored search resources.

Our business tax and surcharges increased significantly to US$0.8 million in 2008 from US$0.3 million in 2007. This increase was a direct result of the increase in our revenues. Business tax and surcharges have not increased as significantly as our total revenue because business tax and surcharges for TV advertising revenues are calculated net of service income after deducting the amount paid to ending media providers as stipulated in the related business tax law of PRC.

Gross Profit: As a result of the foregoing, our gross profit was US$7.7 million in 2008 as compared to US$2.9 million in 2007. According to our experience, the comprehensive gross margin for our four segments of revenue is about 35%-40%.

The gross margin of our Internet advertising revenue increased to 59% in 2008 from 38% in 2007. With the successful brand building effort that we made in 2007, 28.com has already been recognized as one of the most well known websites for SMEs and investors to find business opportunities and business parties in China. This brand effect allowed us to significantly reduce the amount Internet sources that we need to purchase from other portal website to maintain the same visit volume that we achieved via 28.com.

The gross margin of our TV advertising revenue is relatively stable at about 12%-15%, due to the relatively fixed time cost purchased from TV stations and the relatively stable selling price to our clients.

Internet advertising agency resale business is not our core business, and the gross margin for this part of business is relatively low at about 2%.

The gross margin of our bank kiosk unit is about 80%. This relatively high margin is achievable because of the higher fees generated from the larger, more sophisticated class of advertisers and the higher-end business outlets featured in this business. Our advertising clients in this business segment are banks, insurance companies and large auto manufactures.

Operating Expenses: Our operating expenses increased significantly to US$3.9 million in 2008 from US$2.6 million in 2007. This increase of $1.3 million or 50% was due to the following factors.

Selling expenses: Selling expenses increased to US$2.7 million in 2008 from US$2.1 million in 2007. The increase in our selling expenses was mainly due to increased brand development expenses for 28.com, higher staff performance bonuses caused by increased revenues, traveling expenses and other marketing expense due to expansion of our revenue and staff salary and benefits due to expansion of our sales force.

General and administrative expenses: General and administrative expenses increased significantly in 2008 to US$1 million from US$0.4 million in 2007. The increase in our general and administrative expenses was mainly due to increased staff salaries and benefits increased office, entertainment and travel expenses, in each case due to expansion of the business, and professional service charges due to upcoming SEC reporting and filing requirements.

Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses increased to US$0.2 million in 2008 from US$0.1 million in 2007. This increase was a result of development costs related to our client services based Internet technology in 2008.

Operating Profit (Loss): As a result of the foregoing, our operating profit increased significantly to US$3.7 million in 2008 from an operating loss of US$0.2 million in 2007.

Interest Income: Our interest income increased to US$0.008 million in 2008 from US$0.002 million in 2007. This increase was primarily a result of higher cash and cash equivalent balances generated from our operating and financing activities.

Income Taxes: We recognized an income tax expense of approximately US$0.96 million in 2008 as compared to US$0.4 million in 2007. Although we had a net loss in 2007, the brand development cost that we paid for promoting 28.com which is over certain percentage of our total revenue in 2007 was considered as non-deductible expenses for income tax expenses computation.

Net Income: As a result of the foregoing, our net income amounted to US$2.8 million in 2008 as compared to a net loss of US$0.2 million in 2007.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The functional currency of our Company is United States dollars (“US$”), and the functional currency of our Hong Kong subsidiary, China Net HK, is Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”). The functional currency of our Company’s PRC Operating Entities is the Renminbi, and PRC is the primary economic environment in which we operate. The value of stockholders’ investment in our stock will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between US$, HK$ and RMB. To the extent we hold assets denominated in U.S. dollars any appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar could result in a change to our statement of operations and a reduction in the value of our U.S. dollar denominated assets. On the other hand, a decline in the value of RMB against the U.S. dollar could reduce the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of our financial results, the value of stockholders’ investment in our company and the dividends we may pay in the future, if any, all of which may have a material adverse effect on the price of our stock.

Our exposure to foreign exchange risk primarily relates to currency gains or losses resulting from timing differences between signing of sales contracts and settling of these contracts. Furthermore, we translate monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies into RMB, the functional currency of our operating business. Our results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the foreign exchange rate at the end of the period. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in our statement of shareholders’ equity. We have not used any forward contracts, currency options or borrowings to hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. We cannot predict the impact of future exchange rate fluctuations on our results of operations and may incur net foreign currency losses in the future.

Interest Rate Risk

Changes in interest rates may affect the interest paid (or earned) and therefore affect our cash flows and results of operations. However, we do not believe that this interest rate change risk is significant.

Inflation

Inflation has not had a material impact on the Company’s business in recent years.

Currency Exchange Fluctuations

All of the Company’s revenues are denominated in RMB, as are expenses. The value of the RMB-to-US$ and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. Since 1994, the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies, including US$, has been based on rates set by the People’s Bank of China, which are set daily based on the previous day’s inter-bank foreign exchange market rates and current exchange rates on the world financial markets. Since 1994, the official exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to US$ had generally been stable and the RMB had appreciated slightly against the US$. However, on July 21, 2005, the Chinese government changed its policy of pegging the value of RMB to the US$. Under the new policy, RMB may fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. Recently there has been increased political pressure on the Chinese government to decouple the RMB from the US$. At the recent quarterly regular meeting of People’s Bank of China, its Currency Policy Committee affirmed the effects of the reform on RMB exchange rate. Since February 2006, the new currency rate system has been operated; the currency rate of RMB has become more flexible while basically maintaining stable and the expectation for a larger appreciation range is shrinking. The Company has never engaged in currency hedging operations and has no present intention to do so.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted. Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off balance sheet) that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers or counterparties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions as described below:

The Company’s business is characterized by rapid technological change, new product and service development, and evolving industry standards and regulations. Inherent in the Company’s business are various risks and uncertainties, including the impact from the volatility of the stock market, limited operating history, uncertain profitability and the ability to raise additional capital.

All of the Company’s revenue is derived from China. Changes in laws and regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If the Company is unable to derive any revenues from China, it would have a significant, financially disruptive effect on the normal operations of the Company.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Business Overview

The Company is a holding company that conducts its primary businesses through its subsidiaries and operating companies, Business Opportunity Online, Beijing CNET Online, and Shanghai Borongdongsi. We are one of China’s leading full-service media development and advertising platforms for the small and medium enterprise (the “SME”) market. We are a service oriented business that leverages proprietary advertising technology to prepare and publish rich media enabled advertising campaigns for clients on the Internet and on television. Our goal is to strengthen our position as the leading diversified media advertising provider in China. Our multi-platform advertising network consists of the website www.28.com (“28.com”), our Internet advertising portal, ChinaNet TV, our TV production and advertising unit, and our newly launched bank kiosk advertising unit, which is primarily used as an advertising platform for clients in the financial services industry. Using proprietary technology, we provide additional services as a lead generator. We also have pursued a strategy as a re-seller of Internet and television advertising space that we purchase in bulk.

We have provided advertising and lead generation services to over 500 clients in a variety of consumer focused industries. Our media campaign service combines both Internet and television advertising, thereby maximizing advertising exposure for our clients. Through the high traffic internet portal 28.com, operated through Business Opportunity Online, companies and entrepreneurs advertise their products, services and business opportunities. 28.com offers campaign management tools for our clients including lead generation and capture, advanced tracking, search engine optimization, resource scheduling, and content management. Through the 28.com site our customers can build sales channels and develop relationships directly with sales agents, distributors, resellers and/or franchisees. It also functions as a one-stop destination for end-users seeking new business opportunities. Through our ChinaNet TV division, operated through Beijing CNET Online, we have in-house television productions and distribution capabilities. We create and distribute television shows that are typically 10 or 20 minutes in length and broadcast on local television stations. Airtime is purchased in 40 minute blocks which air two to four segments each. The television shows are comprised of advertisements, similar to infomercials, but include promotions for several clients during the allotted time. We have also commenced production, on a lesser scale, of web video advertisements for clients to be placed on 28.com.

In May 2008, we launched our new bank kiosk division, operated through Shanghai Borongdongsi, which provides interactive LCD ad displays targeting banking customers. In cooperation with the China Construction Bank, we placed 200 interactive kiosks in its branches throughout Henan Province. Each kiosk has an LCD advertising display panel, which provides advertising aimed at bank customers. The kiosk also provides Internet access on a separate screen so that customers can perform basic non-cash banking functions such as transferring money, purchasing annuities and/or insurance, and paying bills.

We derive our revenue principally by:

charging our clients fixed monthly fees to advertise on 28.com;

charging productions fees for television and web video spots;

selling advertising time slots on our television shows and bank kiosks;

reselling Internet space and television space at a discount to the direct cost of any individual space or time slot, but at a mark-up to our cost due to purchase of these items in bulk; and

collecting fees associated with lead generation.

Since we commenced our current business operations in 2003, we have experienced significant growth in our network and in our financial results. We generated total revenues of $21.5 million in 2008 compared to $7.6 million in 2007 and net income of $3.2 million in 2008 compared to a net loss of $0.2 million in 2007. As of the three months ended June 30, 2009, our total revenues increased significantly to US$9.4 million from US$5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008.

Our Corporate History and Background

We were incorporated in the State of Texas in April 2006 and re-domiciled to become a Nevada corporation in October 2006. From the date of our incorporation until June 26, 2009, when we consummated the Share Exchange (as defined below), our business development activities were primarily concentrated in web server access and company branding in hosting web based e-games.

Our wholly owned subsidiary, China Net Online Media Limited was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on August 13, 2007 (“China Net”). In April 11, 2008, China Net became the parent holding company of a group of companies comprised of CNET Online Technology Limited, a Hong Kong company (“China Net HK”), which established and is the parent company of Rise King Century Technology Development (Beijing) Co., Ltd., a wholly foreign-owned enterprise (“WFOE”) established in the People's Republic of China (“Rise King WFOE”). We refer to the transactions that resulted in China Net becoming an indirect parent company of Rise King WFOE as the “Offshore Restructuring.” We operate our business in China primarily through Business Opportunity Online (Beijing) Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“Business Opportunity Online”), Beijing CNET Online Advertising Co., Ltd. (“Beijing CNET Online”), and Shanghai Borongdingsi Computer Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Borongdingsi”). Business Opportunity Online, Beijing CNET Online and Shanghai Borongdingsi, were incorporated on December 8, 2004, January 27, 2003 and August 3, 2005, respectively. From time to time, we refer to them collectively as the “PRC Operating Entities”.

Shanghai Borongdingsi is owned 51% by Beijing CNET Online. Beijing CNET Online and Shanghai Borongdingsi entered into a cooperation agreement in June 2008, followed up with a supplementary agreement in December 2008, to conduct e-banking advertisement business. The business is based on an e-banking cooperation agreement between Shanghai Borongdingsi and Henan provincial branch of China Construction Bank which allows Shanghai Borongdingsi or its designated party to conduct in-door advertisement business within the business outlets throughout Henan Province. The e-banking cooperation agreement has a term of eight years starting August 2008. However, Shanghai Borongdingsi was not able to conduct the advertisement as a stand-alone business due to the lack of an advertisement business license and supporting financial resources. Pursuant to the aforementioned cooperation agreements, Beijing CNET Online committed to purchase equipment, and to provide working capital, technical and other related support to Shanghai Borongdingsi. Beijing CNET Online owns the equipment used in the kiosk business, is entitled to sign contracts in its name on behalf of the business, and holds the right to collect the advertisement revenue generated from the kiosk business exclusively until the recovery of the cost of purchase of the equipment. Thereafter, Beijing CNET Online has agreed to distribute 49% of the succeeding net profit generated from the e-banking advertising business, if any, to the minority shareholders of Shanghai Borongdingsi.

Restructuring

In October 2008, a restructuring plan was developed (the “Restructuring”). The Restructuring was accomplished in two steps. The first step was for Rise King WFOE to acquire control over Business Opportunity Online and Beijing CNET Online (collectively the “PRC Operating Subsidiaries”) by entering into a series of contracts (the “Contractual Agreements”), which enabled Rise King WFOE to operate the business and manage the affairs of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries. Both of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries at that time and currently are owned by Messrs. Handong Cheng, Xuanfu Liu and Ms. Li Sun (the “PRC Shareholders”). Messrs. Cheng and Liu, are now our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, respectively. After the PRC Restructuring was consummated, the second step was for China Net to enter into and complete a transaction with a U.S. public reporting company, whereby that company would acquire China Net, China Net HK and Rise King WFOE, and control the PRC Operating Subsidiaries (the “China Net Companies”).

Legal Structure of the PRC Restructuring

The PRC Restructuring was consummated in a manner so as not to violate PRC laws relating to restrictions on foreign ownership of businesses in certain industries in the PRC and the PRC M&A regulations.

The Foreign Investment Industrial Guidance Catalogue jointly issued by the Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”) and the National Development and Reform Commission in 2007 classified various industries/business into three different categories: (i) encouraged for foreign investment, (ii) restricted to foreign investment, and (iii) prohibited from foreign investment. For any industry/business not covered by any of these three categories, they will be deemed industries/business permitted to have foreign investment. Except for those expressly provided restrictions, encouraged and permitted industries/business are usually open to foreign investment and ownership. With regard to those industries/business restricted to or prohibited from foreign investment, there is always a limitation on foreign investment and ownership.

The business of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries falls under the class of a business that provides Internet content or information services, a type of value added telecommunication services, for which restrictions upon foreign ownership apply, which means Rise King WFOE is not allowed to do the business the PRC Operating Subsidiaries companies are currently pursuing. Advertising business is open to foreign investment but one of the requirements is that the foreign investors of a WFOE shall have been carrying out advertising business for over three years pursuant to the Foreign Investment Advertising Measures as amended by MOFCOM and the State Administration of Industry and Commerce (“SAIC”) on August 22, 2008. Rise King WFOE is not allowed to engage in the advertising business because its shareholder, China Net HK, does not meet such requirements. In order to control the business and operations of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries, and consolidate the financial results of the two companies in a manner that does not violate current PRC laws, Rise King WFOE executed the Contractual Agreements with the PRC Shareholders and each of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries. The Contractual Agreements allow us through Rise King WFOE to, among other things, secure significant rights to influence the two companies’ business operations, policies and management, approve all matters requiring shareholder approval, and the right to receive 100% of the income earned by the PRC Operating Subsidiaries. In return, Rise King WFOE provides consulting services to the PRC Operating Subsidiaries. In addition, to ensure that the PRC Operating Subsidiaries and the PRC Shareholders perform their obligations under the Contractual Arrangements, the PRC Shareholders have pledged to Rise King WFOE all of their equity interests in the PRC Operating Subsidiaries. They have also entered into an option agreement with Rise King WFOE which provides that at such time that current restrictions under PRC law on foreign ownership of Chinese companies engaging in the Internet content or information services in China are lifted, Rise King WFOE may exercise its option to purchase the equity interests in the PRC Operating Subsidiaries directly.

Each of the PRC Shareholders entered into a share transfer agreement (the “Share Transfer Agreement”) with Mr. Yang Li, the sole shareholder of Rise King BVI, which is a 55% shareholder of China Net. The PRC Shareholders have been granted the incentive options for the contributions that they have made and will continue to make to Rise King BVI. Under the Share Transfer Agreements Mr. Li granted to each of the PRC Shareholders an option to acquire, in the aggregate 10,000 shares of Rise King BVI, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rise King BVI, provided that certain financial performance thresholds were met by the China Net. The Share Transfer Agreement was formalized and entered into on April 28, 2009. Subject to registering with the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”) prior to the exercise and issuance of the Option Shares under the Share Transfer Agreements, which is an administrative task, there is no prohibition under PRC laws for the PRC Shareholders to earn an interest in Rise King BVI after the PRC Restructuring is consummated in compliance with PRC law.

Pursuant to the Share Transfer Agreement, the Option Shares vest and become exercisable in one-third increments upon the China Net Companies attaining consolidated gross revenue performance targets for fiscal 2009, the six month period ended June 30, 2010 and the six month period ended December 31, 2010 of RMB 100 million, RMB 60 million and RMB 60 million. If the China Net Companies achieve the performance targets the exercise price will be $1.00 per share. If the targets are not met, the exercise price shall increase to $2.00 per shares. Therefore, as of February 14, 2011, 100% of the Option Shares will be exercisable.

Accounting Treatment of the Restructuring

The Restructuring is accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control in a manner similar to pooling of interests, with no adjustment to the historical basis of the assets and liabilities of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries. The operations of the Entities are consolidated as if the current corporate structure had been in existence throughout the period presented in the audited financial statements. The Restructuring is accounted for in this manner because pursuant to an Entrustment Agreement dated June 5, 2009 (the “Entrustment Agreement”) between Rise King BVI and the PRC Shareholders, Rise King BVI granted to the PRC Shareholders, on a collective basis, managerial control over each of the China Net Companies by delegating to the PRC Shareholders its shareholder rights, including the right to vote, and its rights to designate management of the China Net Company. The Entrustment Agreement, together with the Contractual Arrangements demonstrate the ability of the PRC Shareholders to continue to control Business Opportunity Online and Beijing CNET Online, which are under our common control.

Below is a summary of the material terms of the Contractual Agreements.

Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements

Pursuant to Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements entered into by and between Rise King WFOE and each of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries in October 2008, Rise King WFOE has the exclusive right to provide to the PRC Operating Subsidiaries complete technical support, business support and related consulting services, which include, among other things, technical services, business consultations, equipment or property leasing, marketing consultancy and product research. Each PRC Operating Subsidiary has agreed to pay an annual service fee to Rise King WFOE equal to 100% of its audited total amount of operational income each year. Each PRC Operating Subsidiary has also agreed to pay a monthly service fee to Rise King WFOE equal to 100% of the net income generated on a monthly basis. The payment and terms of payment are fixed to ensure that Rise King WFOE obtains 100% of the net income for that month, although adjustments may be made upon approval by Rise King WFOE to provide for operational needs. If at year end, after an audit of the financial statements of any PRC Operating Subsidiary, there is determined to be any shortfall in the payment of 100% of the annual net income, such PRC Operating Subsidiary must pay such shortfall to Rise King WFOE. Each agreement has a ten-year term, subject to renewal and early termination in accordance with the terms therein.

Exclusive Option Agreements

Under Exclusive Option Agreements entered into by and among Rise King WFOE, each of the PRC Shareholders, dated as of October 8, 2008, each of the PRC Shareholders irrevocably granted to Rise King WFOE or its designated person an exclusive option to purchase, to the extent permitted by PRC law, a portion or all of their respective equity interest in any PRC Operating Subsidiary for a purchase price of RMB 10 or a purchase price to be adjusted to be in compliance with applicable PRC laws and regulations. Rise King WFOE or its designated person has the sole discretion to decide when to exercise the option, whether in part or in full. Each of these agreements has a ten-year term, subject to renewal at the election of Rise King WFOE.

Equity Pledge Agreements

Under the Equity Pledge Agreements entered into by and among Rise King WFOE, the PRC Operating Subsidiaries and each of the PRC Shareholders, dated as of October 8, 2008, the PRC Shareholders pledge, all of their equity interests in PRC Operating Subsidiaries to guarantee Beijing CNET Online’s performance of its obligations under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement. If Beijing CNET Online or any of the PRC Shareholders breaches his/her respective contractual obligations under this agreement, or upon the occurrence of one of the events regarded as an event of default under each such agreement, Rise King WFOE, as pledgee, will be entitled to certain rights, including the right to dispose of the pledged equity interests. The PRC Shareholders of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries agree not to dispose of the pledged equity interests or take any actions that would prejudice Rise King WFOE's interest, and to notify Rise King WFOE of any events or upon receipt of any notices which may affect Rise King WFOE's interest in the pledge. Each of the equity pledge agreements will be valid until all the payments due under the Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement have been fulfilled.

Irrevocable Powers of Attorney

The PRC Shareholders have each executed an irrevocable power of attorney, dated as of October 8, 2008, to appoint Rise King WFOE as their exclusive attorneys-in-fact to vote on their behalf on all PRC Operating Subsidiary matters requiring shareholder approval. The term of each power of attorney is valid so long as such shareholder is a shareholder of the respective PRC Operating Subsidiary.

Share Exchange

On June 26, 2009, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), with (i) ChinaNet BVI, (ii) ChinaNet BVI’s shareholders, Allglad Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Allglad”), Growgain Limited, a British Virgin Islands company ("Growgain"), Rise King Investments Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Rise King BVI”), Star (China) Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Star”), Surplus Elegant Investment Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Surplus”), Clear Jolly Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Clear” and together with Allglad, Growgain, Rise King BVI, Star and Surplus, the “ChinaNet BVI Shareholders”), who together own shares constituting 100% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of ChinaNet BVI (the “ChinaNet BVI Shares”), and (iii) G. Edward Hancock, the former principal stockholder of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the ChinaNet BVI Shareholders transferred to the Company all of the ChinaNet BVI Shares in exchange for the issuance of 13,790,800 (the “Exchange Shares”) shares of Common Stock (the “Share Exchange”). As a result of the Share Exchange, ChinaNet BVI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company is now a holding company, which through certain contractual arrangements with operating companies in the PRC, is engaged in providing advertising, marketing and communication services to small and medium companies in China.

Immediately prior to the Share Exchange, we cancelled and retired 4,400,000 shares of our issued and outstanding Common Stock (the “Cancelled Shares”) (reducing our issued and outstanding shares to 1,383,500), and issued 600,000 shares of our Common Stock in the aggregate to certain third parties in consideration for services rendered (resulting in 1,983,500 shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock immediately prior to the Share Exchange). A cash amount of $300,000, previously deposited by us into an escrow account was paid to G. Edward Hancock, our former majority shareholder and owner of the Cancelled Shares, as consideration for cancelling the Cancelled Shares in connection with the Share Exchange. As a result of the cancellation of the Cancelled Shares, the share issuance described above, and the Share Exchange, we had 15,774,300 shares issued and outstanding immediately following the Share Exchange.

In connection with the Share Exchange, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated June 26, 2009 with certain of our stockholders signatory thereto. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to provide those stockholders signatory thereto, for a 90-day period from the date of signing, piggyback registration rights under the Securities Act on a portion of their shares. In the event that we do not file such registration statement within the 90-day period, the stockholders holding a majority of the securities registrable under the Registration Rights Agreement will have a demand registration right. There are no other penalties or liquidated damages (in securities of the Company, cash or otherwise) as a result of the Company not successfully filing a registration statement within the 90-day period or pursuant to the terms of the demand.

Name Change

Prior to July 14, 2009, our company name was Emazing Interactive, Inc. On July 14, 2009, the Company caused to be formed a corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada called ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. (the "Merger Sub") and acquired one hundred shares of its common stock for cash. As such, Merger Sub was merged with and into the Company. As a result of the merger, the separate existence of the Merger Sub ceased. As a further result of the merger, our corporate name was changed to “ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc.” We are the surviving corporation in the merger and, except for the name change provided for in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, there was no change in our directors, officers, capital structure or business.

2009 Financing

On August 21, 2009 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), with several investors, including institutional, accredited and non-US persons and entities (the “Investors”), pursuant to which we sold units, comprised of 10% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), and two series of warrants, for a purchase price of $2.50 per unit and gross proceeds of approximately $10.3 million (the “Financing”). Net proceeds from the Financing were approximately $9.5 million. We sold 4,121,600 units in the aggregate, which included (i) 4,121,600 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) Series A-1 Warrants to purchase 2,060,800 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share with a three-year term, and (ii) Series A-2 Warrants to purchase 2,060,800 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.75 with a five-year term. In connection with the Financing, we issued to TriPoint Global Equities, LLC warrants to purchase 329,728 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, 164,864 at an exercise price of $3.00 and 164,864 at an exercise price of $3.75. The warrants expire on August 20, 2014 .

In connection with the Financing, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Investors in which we agreed to file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register the Common Stock underlying the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A-1 Warrants and the Series A-2 Warrants, thirty (30) days after the closing of the Financing. We have agreed to use our best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective within 150 calendar days after filing, or 180 calendar days after filing in the event the Registration Statement is subject to a “full review” by the SEC.

We are required to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until such date as is the earlier of the date when all of the securities covered by that registration statement have been sold or the date on which such securities may be sold without any restriction pursuant to Rule 144 (the “Financing Effectiveness Period”). We will pay liquidated damages of 2% of each holder’s initial investment in the units sold in the Financing per month, payable in cash, up to a maximum of 10%, if the Registration Statement is not filed or declared effective within the foregoing time periods or ceases to be effective prior to the expiration of the Financing Effectiveness Period. However, no liquidated damages shall be paid with respect to any securities being registered that we are not permitted to include in the Registration Statement due to the SEC’s application of Rule 415.

In connection with the Financing, we entered into a securities escrow agreement with the Investors (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which Rise King Investment Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (the “Principal Stockholder”), initially placed 2,558,160 shares of Common Stock (the “Escrow Shares”) into an escrow account. Of the Escrow Shares, 1,279,080 shares (equivalent to 50% of the Escrow Shares) are being held as security for the achievement of audited net income equal to or greater than $7.7 million for the fiscal year 2009 (the “2009 Performance Threshold”) and the remaining 1,279,080 of the Esrow Shares are being held as security for the achievement of audited net income equal to or greater than $14 million for the fiscal year 2010 (the “2010 Performance Threshold”).

Industry and Market Overview

Overview of the Advertising Market in China

China has the largest advertising market in Asia, excluding Japan. According to ZenithOptimedia in 2007, China’s advertising market was the fifth largest in the world by media expenditure, which was approximately $15.4 billion, accounting for 15.6% of the total advertising spending in the Asia-Pacific region. ZenithOptimedia also projected that the advertising market in China will be one of the fastest growing advertising markets in the world, at a CAGR of 12.8% from 2007 to 2011. By 2011, China is projected to account for 19.6% of the total advertising spending in the Asia-Pacific region.

The growth of China’s advertising market is driven by a number of factors, including the rapid and sustained economic growth and increases in disposable income and consumption in China. According to ZenithOptimedia, China was the third largest economy in the world in 2007 in terms of GDP, which amounted to US$3.1 trillion. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the annual disposable income per capita in urban households increased from RMB 13,786 in 2007 to RMB 15,781 in 2008, representing an increase of 14.5%.

We believe the advertising market in China has significant potential for future growth due to relatively low levels of advertising spending per capita and as a percentage of GDP compared to more developed countries or regions. The following table sets forth the advertising spending per capita and as a percentage of GDP in 2007 in China compared to more developed countries or regions:

Advertising Spending in 2007
	Per Capita (US$)		As a % of GDP

China	$	11.62		0.5	%
Hong Kong		438.63		1.5	%
South Korea		206.71		1.0	%
Japan		320.76		0.9	%
Asia Pacific (weighted average)		29.98		0.8	%
United States		586.11		1.3	%
United Kingdom		419.79		0.9	%

Overview of the Internet Advertising Industry

According to ZenithOptimedia, the Internet is the only advertising medium that is expected to experience an increase in expenditures in 2009. This growth is expected to stem primarily from the use of search engine, rich media, video and game embedded advertisements. The growth of Internet advertising is expected to be 11.3% in 2010 and 15.3% in 2011, and according to the iResearch China Merchant Website Research Report, is expected to reach $5.8 billion in 2012.

The diagram below depicts annual size & growth of Chinese Internet advertising market from 2001 to 2012:

High Demand for the Internet Advertising in China

We believe that the Internet advertising market in China also has significant potential for future growth due to high demand from the rapid development of franchise and chain store business and the SMEs. According to the 2008 China Franchise Development Report by China Chain Store & Franchise Development Report, there were approximately 3,000 franchise enterprises and 260,000 chain stores in China by the end of 2007, and the number of franchise enterprises and chain stores is expected to increase to 4,000 and 320,000, respectively by 2010.

The development of the SME market is still in its early stages and since their sales channels and distribution networks are still underdeveloped, they are driven to search for new participants by utilizing Internet advertising. The SMEs tend to be smaller, less-developed brands primarily focused on restaurants, garments, building materials, home appliances, and entertainment with low start-up costs within a range of $1,000-$15,000. The Chinese government has promulgated a series of laws and regulations to protect and promote the development of SMEs which appeals to entrepreneurs looking to benefit from the central government’s support of increased domestic demand. SMEs are now responsible for about 60% of China's industrial output and employment of about 75% of urban Chinese workforce. SMEs are creating the most new urban jobs, and they are the main destination for workers laid-off from state-owned enterprises (SOEs) that re-enter the workforce.

Internet Advertising

We founded 28.com in 2003. 28.com is a leading Internet site for information about small business opportunities in China. It was one of the earliest entrants in this sector, allowing it to currently hold a 30% market share in China. Our revenue from 28.com is twice as big as our closest competitor, u88.cn. We have provided more than 500 long-term clients advertising business opportunities on the site. The platform provides advertisers with the tools to build sales channels and develop relationships directly with sales agents, distributors, resellers and/or franchisees. 28.com has the following features which enable it to be an attractive platform for the advertisers:

Allows entrepreneurs interested in inexpensive franchise and business opportunities to find in-depth details about these opportunities in various industries;

Provides one-stop shopping for SMEs and entrepreneurs by providing customized services such as design, website setup, and advertisement placement through promoting;

Bundles with 28.com video production, advanced traffic generation techniques and search-engine optimization.

28.com charges its clients fixed monthly fees for ad placements on its homepage at an average monthly price of $3,000. The site has more than 500 long term clients and the total revenue per month reaches approximately $1.5 million in 2008. This segment accounted for 52% of our revenue in 2008 and 100% of our revenue in 2007.

Television Advertising

As part of our media campaign services, for each client we produce and distribute television shows that are comprised of advertisements similar to infomercials, but include promotions for several clients during the allotted time. Our clients pay us for editorial coverage and advertising spots. We are one of the larger producers of television shows of this nature in China, with an estimated total show time that is expected to reach 30,000 minutes in 2009 and 100,000 minutes in 2010. The shows produced by our TV unit are distributed during airtime purchased on the biggest national satellite television stations including CCTV, Hunan TV, Jiangxi TV, Shandong TV, Guangdong TV, Fujian TV, Guangxi TV, Mongolia TV, Yunnan TV, Tianjin TV and Heilongjiang TV. The brand of shows produced by us are entitled “Gold List,” “Online Business Opportunities,” “The Charm of Wealth,” “Venture Express,” “Start” and “Run’s Road to Wealth.” This segment accounted for 32.6% of our revenue in 2008.

Resale of Internet Advertising Resources

We resell to our new clients sponsored search resources and advertising portal resources purchased from other portal websites. These websites include Baidu, Tengxun (QQ), Google, Sina, Sohu and other advertising clients. This segment accounted for 14.3% of our revenue in 2008.

Bank Kiosks

We operate our bank kiosk advertising network, launched in 2008, through Shanghai Borongdingsi. We place our kiosk machines, which include a large, LCD advertising display, in bank branches to target banking patrons. We market our LCD display network to advertisers in the financial services and insurance industries. As of June 1, 2009, we had approximately 200 flat-panel displays placed in branches of China Construction Bank in Henan Province and 2,000 kiosks are expected to be placed in 17 cities by the end of 2009. The kiosks are useful to the banks because, in addition to the LCD advertising display, they provide bank customers with free Internet access to on-line banking services, thereby potentially shortening wait times in branches for teller services. We believe bank kiosks are a cost effective solution for advertisers because the interactive client interface captures information for follow up and also due to the ability to update content remotely.

Our client base for bank kiosk advertising includes, China Telecom, China Mobile, China Construction Bank. Ping An of China, China Unicom, China International Fund Management Co., Ltd., Toyota, PICC, Guangzhou Honda and Audi.

Our Competitive Strengths

Over our six year history, we believe that we have built a strong track record of significant competitive strengths such as:

Innovative Operations

Client-based innovation. Our services, which bundle for a set fee Internet ads, television shows and other services, including lead generation, simplifies the targeting process for our clients by allowing them to use one vendor for their Internet and television ad buys.

Target market innovation and expansion of audience base. We believe that by offering multiple advertising media platforms, we enable advertisers to reach a wide range of consumers with complementary and mutually reinforcing advertising campaigns. We are better able to attract advertisers who want to reach targeted consumer groups through a number of different advertising media in different venues and at different times of the day.

Strong Technological Advantages

Award winning R&D team. We have a R&D team with extensive experience in China’s advertising and marketing industry. Bin Zhang, Vice President of China Net TV, has been actively engaged in technology research and development in this area since 1998.

Advanced campaign tracking & monitoring tools. We have deployed advanced tracking, search engine optimization, resource scheduling, content management and ad campaign management tools so as to achieve effective and efficient advertising effects.

Valuable intellectual property. We have three copyright certificates and property rights for three software products in connection with the Internet advertising business which were developed by our research and development team.

Experienced management team. We have an experienced management team. In particular, Handong Cheng, our founder, chairman and chief executive officer has over ten years’ experience in management. He demonstrated his entrepreneurship and business leadership by starting up our business and he has successfully grown our business to become a pioneer in online media marketing and advertising services. He also secured our status as the sole strategic alliance partner of China Construction Bank with respect to bank kiosk advertising. Zhige Zhang, our chief financial officer has over six years’ experience in software development and Internet ad technology.

First Mover Advantages

Early Market Entrant as a vertically integrated ad portal and Internet agency. We have over 4 years of operations as a vertically integrated ad portal and ad agency. We have 6 years of experience as an Internet advertising agency. We commenced our Internet advertising services business in 2003 and was among the first companies in China to create a site and a business focused on Internet advertising. We rapidly established a sizeable nationwide network, secured a significant market share and enhanced awareness of our brand. Our early entry into the market has also enabled us to accumulate a significant amount of knowledge and experience in this nascent segment of the advertising industry.

Early mover advantage in bank kiosk. We are one of earlier advertising agents to have established an in-bank advertising network. We believe that the establishment of our in-bank kiosk gives us a competitive edge over competing networks as well as over many other forms of traditional advertising.

Exclusive Strategic Partnership with Top Chinese banks. In 2008, we entered into an eight-year strategic partnership with China Construction Bank to be its strategic partner in the establishment of a nationwide network of bank kiosks displaying our clients’ advertising on large LCD screens and providing bank customers with free internet access to on-line banking services. We pay for the kiosks and then provide them to China Construction Bank for free in exchange for the exclusive right to display advertising on the kiosks. We have already placed 200 kiosks at branches in Henan Province. We are also negotiating similar deals with Bank of Communications and Agricultural Bank of China. We believe exclusivity with the top Chinese banks will create higher barriers to entry for potential competitors.

Growth Strategy

Our objectives are to strengthen our position as the leading Internet advertising and marketing services and diversified media advertising network in China and continue to achieve rapid growth. We intend to achieve these objectives by implementing the following strategies:

Nationally Expand Our Bank Kiosk Platform

We intend to aggressively expand our bank kiosk platform in order to appeal to our financial industry advertisers and increase our revenues in this business line. To achieve this goal, we intend to increase the number of bank kiosks. We intend to aggressively enter into new strategic partnerships with other banks to achieve this result.

Continue to Expand Internet Advertising through Adding New Modules into Our 28.com Network

We intend to add new modules into the 28.com site, such as customer relationship management (CRM), supply chain management and enterprise resources planning (ERP) systems in order to enhance the functionality of our Internet advertising network.

Leverage our integrated platform to increase operational and cross-selling synergies

We plan to maximize opportunities for our business to increase both revenue and cost synergies. We intend to increase cross-selling by developing additional flexible, bundled advertising packages that allow advertisers to reach consumers by complementary and reinforcing media. At the same time, we intend to further leverage the existing elements of our integrated media platform to enhance the platform’s attractiveness to advertisers. Advertisers can launch a coordinated campaign across multiple media while enjoying cost savings from our bundling and volume discounts.

Promote Our Brand Name and Augment Our Service Offerings to Attract a Wider Client Base and Increase Revenues

Enhancing our brand name in the industry will allow us to solidify and broaden our client base by growing market awareness of our services and our ability to target discrete consumer groups more effectively than mass media. We believe the low cost of reaching consumers with higher-than-average disposable incomes through our network and our development of additional advertising media platforms and channels within our network can enable our customers to reach that goal. As we increase our advertising client base and increase sales, demand for and sale of time slots and frame space on our network will grow.

Our Advertising Clients; Sales and Marketing

Sales and Marketing

Sales and Marketing. We employ an experienced advertising sales force. We provide in-house education and training to our sales force to ensure they provide our current and prospective clients with comprehensive information about our services, the advantages of using our advertising networks as marketing channels, and relevant information regarding the advertising industry. We also market our advertising services from time to time by placing advertisements on television, and acting as sponsor to third-party programming as well as to our shows.

Market Research. We believe our advertising clients derive substantial value from our ability to provide advertising services targeted at specific segments of consumer markets. Market research is an important part of evaluating the effectiveness and value of our business to advertisers. We conduct market research, consumer surveys, demographic analysis and other advertising industry research for internal use to evaluate new and existing advertising channels. We also purchase or commission studies containing relevant market study data from reputable third-party market research firms, iResearch Consulting Co., Ltd. We typically consult such studies to assist us in evaluating the effectiveness of our network to our advertisers. A number of these studies contain research on the numbers and socio-economic and demographic profiles of the people who visit our network.

Suppliers

The primary hardware required for the operation of our business consists of servers and other firmware with which we operate 28.com, video production and editing equipment for our television programming, and components for our bank kiosks, including the LCD displays. We also develop and install software in our displays to assist us with the configuration, editing and operation of our advertising content cycles. Maintaining a steady supply of these kiosks and their proprietary LCD displays is important to our operations and the growth of our advertising network. We purchase our television displays from third party manufacturers who build these components according to our specifications. We select component suppliers based on price and quality. As there are several other qualified alternative suppliers for our equipment, our obligation to our current suppliers is not exclusive. We have never experienced any material delay or interruption in the supply of our digital television displays.

We deploy advanced traffic generation techniques, search-engine optimization and other technologies that assist advertisers, advertising agencies and web publishers in creating and delivering Internet ads, monitoring and analyzing website traffic, tracking the performance of advertising campaigns and implementing direct marketing.

Research and Development

We intend to continue to optimize our Standard Operating Environment (the “SOE”) technology in order to reduce cost and time to deploy, configure, maintain, support and manage computer servers and system. Whether or not we deploy newer technology will depend upon cost and network security. We also continue to develop proprietary software and systems in connection with the operation of and provision of services through 28.com to enhance ease of use. In addition, we focus on enhancing related software systems enabling us to track and monitor advertiser demands.

Intellectual Property

We have three software copyright certificates issued by the State Copyright Office of the PRC (“SCO”) as below:

Name of Softwares	Registration Number

With this intellectual property, we can facilitate our provision of services that are in demand by the appropriate customers and can track end users to help our customers assess and adjust their marketing strategies.

Competition

We compete with other advertising companies in China including companies that operate Internet advertising portals or television advertising media networks, such as u88.cn 3158.com 08.cn and 78.cn. We compete for advertising clients primarily on the basis of network size and coverage, location, price, the range of services that we offer and our brand name. We also compete for overall advertising spending with other alternative advertising media companies, such as wireless telecommunications, street furniture, billboard, frame and public transport advertising companies, and with traditional advertising media, such as newspapers, magazines and radio.

Legal Proceedings

We are currently not a party to any legal or administrative proceedings and are not aware of any pending or threatened legal or administrative proceedings against us in all material aspects. We may from time to time become a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business.

Government Regulation

The PRC government imposes extensive controls and regulations over the media industry, including on television, radio, newspapers, magazines, advertising, media content production, and the market research industry. This section summarizes the principal PRC regulations that are relevant to our lines of business.

Regulations on the Advertising Industry in China

Foreign Investments in Advertising

Under the Administrative Provision on Foreign Investment in the Advertising Industry, jointly promulgated by the SAIC and MOFCOM on March 2, 2004, or the 2004 Provision, foreign investors can invest in PRC advertising companies either through wholly owned enterprises or joint ventures with Chinese parties. Since December 10, 2005, foreign investors have been allowed to own up to 100% equity interest in PRC advertising companies. However, the foreign investors must have at least three years of direct operations outside China in the advertising industry as their core business. This requirement is reduced to two years if foreign investment in the advertising company is in the form of a joint venture. Such requirement is also provided similarly in the newly promulgated regulation that replaced the 2004 Provision as of October 1, 2008, except that according to the new regulation, the establishment of wholly foreign-owned advertising companies must be approved by the SAIC or its authorized provincial counterparts and provincial MOFCOM instead of the SAIC and MOFCOM only. Foreign-invested advertising companies can engage in advertising design, production, publishing and agency, provided that certain conditions are met and necessary approvals are obtained.

We have not engaged in direct operations outside China in the advertising industry as our core business. Therefore, our subsidiary in China, Rise King WFOE, is ineligible to apply for the required licenses for providing advertising services in China. Our advertising business is operated by Business Opportunity Online and Beijing CNET Online in China. We have been, and are expected to continue to be, dependent on these companies to operate our advertising business. We do not have any equity interest in our PRC Operating Entities, but Rise King WFOE, receives the economic benefits of the same through the Contractual Arrangements.

We have been advised by our PRC counsel, that each of the Contractual Agreements complies, and immediately after the completion of the transactions contemplated herein, will comply with all applicable PRC laws and regulations and does not violate, breach, contravene or otherwise conflict with any applicable PRC laws, rules or regulations. However, there exist substantial uncertainties regarding the application, interpretation and enforcement of current and future PRC laws and regulations and its potential effect on its corporate structure and contractual arrangements. The interpretation of these laws and regulations are subject to the discretion of competent PRC authorities. There can be no assurance that the PRC regulatory authorities will not take a view different from the opinions of our PRC counsel and determine that its corporate structure and contractual arrangements violate PRC laws, rules and regulations. In the event that the PRC regulatory authorities determine in their discretion that our corporate structure and contractual arrangements violate applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations, including restrictions on foreign investment in the advertising industry in the future, We may be subject to severe penalties, including an order to cease its business operations.

Business License for Advertising Companies

On October 27, 1994, the Tenth Session of the Standing Committee of the Eighth National People’s Congress adopted the Advertising Law which became effective on February 1, 1995. According to the currently effective Advertising Law and its various implementing rules, companies engaging in advertising activities must obtain from the SAIC or its local branches a business license which specifically includes within its scope the operation of an advertising business. Companies conducting advertising activities without such a license may be subject to penalties, including fines, confiscation of advertising income and orders to cease advertising operations. The business license of an advertising company is valid for the duration of its existence, unless the license is suspended or revoked due to a violation of any relevant law or regulation. We have obtained such a business license from the local branches of the SAIC as required by existing PRC regulations. We do not expect to encounter any difficulties in maintaining the business license. However, if we seriously violate the relevant advertising laws and regulations, the SAIC or its local branches may revoke our business licenses.

Outdoors

The Advertising Law in China stipulates that the exhibition and display of outdoor advertisements must comply with certain requirements. It provides that the exhibition and display of outdoors advertisements must not:

· utilize traffic safety facilities and traffic signs;

· impede the use of public facilities, traffic safety facilities and traffic signs;

· obstruct commercial and public activities or create an unpleasant sight in urban areas;

· be placed in restrictive areas near government offices, cultural landmarks or historical or scenic sites; or

· be placed in areas prohibited by the local governments from having outdoor advertisements.

In addition to the Advertising Law, the SAIC promulgated the Outdoor Advertising Registration Administrative Regulations on December 8, 1995, as amended on December 3, 1998 and May 22, 2006, which also governs the outdoor advertising industry in China. Under these regulations, outdoor advertisements in China must be registered with the local SAIC before dissemination. The advertising distributors are required to submit a registration application form and other supporting documents for registration. After review and examination, if an application complies with the requirements, the local SAIC will issue an Outdoor Advertising Registration Certificate for such advertisement. The content, quantity, format, specifications, periods, distributors’ name, and locations of dissemination of the outdoor advertisement must be submitted for registration with the local SAIC. A change of registration with local SAICs must be effected in the event of a change in the distributor, the location of dissemination, the periods, the content, the format, or the specifications of the advertisements. It is unclear whether the SAIC, or any of its local branches in the municipalities and provinces covered by our network, will deem our business as outdoor advertising business, and thus require us to obtain the Outdoor Advertising Registration Certificate. If the PRC government determines that we were obligated to complete outdoor advertisement registration as an outdoor advertising network operator, we may be subject to administrative sanctions, including discontinuation of its business for failure to complete such registration.”

In addition, on December 6, 2007, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (“SARFT”) promulgated the December 2007 Notice pursuant to which the broadcasting of audio and visual programs, including news, drama series, sports, technology, entertainment and other programs, through radio and television networks, the Internet and other information systems affixed to vehicles and buildings and in airports, bus and railway stations, shopping malls, banks, hospitals and other outdoor public media would be subject to approval by the SARFT. The December 2007 Notice required the local branches of SARFT to investigate and record any organization or company engaging in the activities described in the December 2007 Notice without permission, to send written notices to such organizations or companies demanding their compliance with the December 2007 Notice, and to report the results of such investigations to SARFT by January 15, 2008. We have not yet received any notice from the SARFT or any of its local branches demanding compliance with the December 2007 Notice. We may, however, be required to obtain an approval from SARFT under the December 2007 Notice, or may be required to remove entertainment programs from its advertising network.

Advertising Content

PRC advertising laws, rules and regulations set forth certain content requirements for advertisements in China including, among other things, prohibitions on false or misleading content, superlative wording, socially destabilizing content or content involving obscenities, superstition, violence, discrimination or infringement of the public interest. Advertisements for anesthetic, psychotropic, toxic or radioactive drugs are prohibited. There are also specific restrictions and requirements regarding advertisements that relate to matters such as patented products or processes, pharmaceutical products, medical procedures, alcohol, tobacco, and cosmetics. In addition, all advertisements relating to pharmaceuticals, medical instruments, agrochemicals and veterinary pharmaceuticals, together with any other advertisements which are subject to censorship by administrative authorities according to relevant laws or regulations, must be submitted to relevant authorities for content approval prior to dissemination.

Advertisers, advertising operators, including advertising agencies, and advertising distributors are required by PRC advertising laws and regulations to ensure that the content of the advertisements they prepare or distribute is true and in full compliance with applicable laws. In providing advertising services, advertising operators and advertising distributors must review the supporting documents provided by advertisers for advertisements and verify that the content of the advertisements complies with applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations. Prior to distributing advertisements that are subject to government censorship and approval, advertising distributors are obligated to verify that such censorship has been performed and approval has been obtained. Violation of these regulations may result in penalties, including fines, confiscation of advertising income, orders to cease dissemination of the advertisements and orders to publish an advertisement correcting the misleading information. In circumstances involving serious violations, the SAIC or its local branches may revoke violators’ licenses or permits for their advertising business operations. Furthermore, advertisers, advertising operators or advertising distributors may be subject to civil liability if they infringe on the legal rights and interests of third parties in the course of their advertising business.

We do not believe that advertisements containing content subject to restriction or censorship comprise a material portion of the advertisements displayed on our media network. However, there can be no assurance that each advertisement displayed on our network complies with relevant PRC advertising laws and regulations. Failure to comply with PRC laws and regulations relating to advertisement content restrictions governing the advertising industry in China may result in severe penalties.

Regulation on Intellectual Property

Regulation on Trademark

The Trademark Law of the PRC was adopted at the 24th meeting of the Standing Committee of the Fifth National People’s Congress on August 23, 1982 and amended on February 22, 1993 and October 27, 2001. The Trademark Law sets out the guidelines on administration of trademarks and protection of the exclusive rights of trademark owners. In order to enjoy an exclusive right to use a trademark, one must register the trademark with the Trademark Bureau of the SAIC and obtain a registration certificate.

Regulation on Patents

The Patent Law of the PRC was adopted at the 4th Meeting of the Standing Committee of the Sixth National People’s Congress on March 12, 1984 and subsequently amended in 1992 and 2000. The Patent Law extends protection to three kinds of patents: invention patents, utility patents and design patents. According to the Implementing Regulations of the Patent Law, promulgated by the State Council of the PRC on December 28, 2002 and effective on February 1, 2003, an invention patent refers to a new technical solution relating to a product, a process or improvement. When compared to existing technology, an invention patent has prominent substantive features and represents notable progress. A utility patent refers to any new technical solution relating to the shape, the structure, or their combination, of a product. Utility patents are granted for products only, not processes. A design patent (or industrial design) refers to any new design of the shape, pattern or color of a product or their combinations, that create an aesthetic feeling and are suitable for industrial application. Inventors or designers must register with the State Intellectual Property Office to obtain patent protection. The term of protection is twenty years for invention patents and ten years for utility patents and design patents. Unauthorized use of patent constitutes an infringement and the patent holders are entitled to claims of damages, including royalties, to the extent reasonable, and lost profits.

Regulation on Copyright

The Copyright Law of the PRC was adopted at the 15th Meeting of the Standing Committee of the Seventh National People’s Congress on September 7, 1990 and amended on October 27, 2001. Unlike patent and trademark protection, copyrighted works do not require registration for protection in China. However, copyright owners may wish to voluntarily register with China’s National Copyright Administration to establish evidence of ownership in the event enforcement actions become necessary. Consent from the copyright owners and payment of royalties are required for the use of copyrighted works. Copyrights of movies or other audio or video works usually expire fifty years after their first publication. We believe that we are in compliance with the PRC regulations on copyright.

Regulations on Foreign Currency Exchange

Foreign Currency Exchange

Pursuant to the Foreign Currency Administration Rules promulgated on August 25, 2008 and various regulations issued by SAFE and other relevant PRC government authorities, the Renminbi is freely convertible only to the extent of current account items, such as trade-related receipts and payments, interest and dividends. Capital account items, such as direct equity investments, loans and repatriation of investment, require the prior approval from SAFE or its local branch for conversion of the Renminbi into a foreign currency, such as U.S. dollars, and remittance of the foreign currency outside the PRC. Payments for transactions that take place within the PRC must be made in Renminbi. Domestic companies or individuals can repatriate foreign currency payments received from abroad or deposit these payments abroad subject to applicable regulations that expressly require repatriation within certain period. Foreign-invested enterprises may retain foreign exchange in accounts with designated foreign exchange banks subject to a cap set by SAFE or its local branch. Foreign currencies received under current account items can be either retained or sold to financial institutions engaged in the foreign exchange settlement or sales business without prior approval from SAFE by complying with relevant regulations. Foreign exchange income under capital account can be retained or sold to financial institutions engaged in foreign exchange settlement and sales business, with prior approval from SAFE unless otherwise provided.

Our business operations, which are subject to the foreign currency exchange regulations, have all been in accordance with these regulations. We will take steps to ensure that our future operations are in compliance with these regulations.

Foreign Exchange Registration of Offshore Investment by PRC Residents

Pursuant to SAFE’s Notice on Relevant Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Administration for PRC Residents to Engage in Financing and Inbound Investment via Overseas Special Purpose Vehicles, or Circular No. 75, issued on October 21, 2005 and effective on November 1, 2005, (i) a PRC resident, including a PRC resident natural person or a PRC company, shall register with the local branch of SAFE before it establishes or controls an overseas SPV for the purpose of overseas equity financing (including convertible debt financing); (ii) when a PRC resident contributes the assets of or its equity interests in a domestic enterprise to an SPV, or engages in overseas financing after contributing assets or equity interests to an SPV, such PRC resident shall register his or her interest in the SPV and the change thereof with the local SAFE branch; and (iii) when the SPV undergoes a material event outside China, such as a change in share capital, or merger or acquisition, the PRC resident shall, within 30 days of the occurrence of such event, register such change with the local branch of SAFE. PRC residents who are shareholders of SPVs established before November 1, 2005 were required to register with the local SAFE branch before March 31, 2006. Such deadline has been further extended by the Circular 106.

Under Circular No. 75, failure to comply with the registration procedures set forth above may result in penalties, including restrictions on a PRC subsidiary’s foreign exchange activities in capital accounts and its ability to distribute dividends to the SPV. On May 29, 2007, SAFE issued Circular 106 as the implementing rules of Circular 75, which provides more detailed provisions and requirements for the registration procedures.

On December 25, 2006, the People’s Bank of China promulgated the “Measures for the Administration of Individual Foreign Exchange,” and on January 5, 2007, SAFE promulgated the implementation rules on those measures. These regulations became effective on February 1, 2007. Pursuant to these regulations, PRC citizens who are granted shares or share options by an overseas listed company according to its employee share option or share option plan are required, through a qualified PRC agent which may be the PRC subsidiary of such overseas listed company, to register with the SAFE and complete certain other procedures related to the share option or share option plan. Foreign exchange income received from the sale of shares or dividends distributed by the overseas listed company must be remitted into a foreign currency account of such PRC citizen or be exchanged into Renminbi. In addition, Circular 106 requires a PRC resident to make the SPV filing together with the employee stock option filing. Moreover, the PRC resident is required to make an amendment to the previous filings when he or she exercises his or her employee stock options.

Dividend Distribution

The principal laws, rules and regulations governing dividends paid by PRC operating subsidiaries include the Company Law of the PRC (1993), as amended in 2006, the Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise Law (1986), as amended in 2000, and the Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise Law Implementation Rules (1990), as amended in 2001. Under these laws and regulations, PRC subsidiaries, including wholly owned foreign enterprises, or WFOEs, and domestic companies in China, may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, its PRC significant subsidiaries, including WFOEs and domestic companies, are required to set aside at least 10% of their after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to their statutory capital reserve fund until the cumulative amount of such reserve reaches 50% of their respective registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends.

Tax

On March 16, 2007, the Fifth Session of the Tenth National People’s Congress of PRC passed the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China, or EIT Law, which became effective on January 1, 2008. On November 28, 2007, the State Council at the 197th Executive Meeting passed the Regulation on the Implementation of the Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China, which became effective on January 1, 2008. The EIT Law adopted a uniform tax rate of 25% for all enterprises (including foreign-invested enterprises) and revoked the existing tax exemption, reduction and preferential treatments applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. However, there is a transition period for enterprises, whether foreign-invested or domestic, that received preferential tax treatments granted by relevant tax authorities prior to the effectiveness of the EIT Law. Enterprises that were subject to an enterprise income tax rate lower than 25% may continue to enjoy the lower rate and gradually transit to the new tax rate within five years after the effective date of the EIT Law.

Under the EIT Law, enterprises are classified as either “resident enterprises” or “non-resident enterprises.” Pursuant to the EIT Law and the Implementation Rules, enterprises established under PRC laws, or enterprises established outside China whose “de facto management bodies” are located in China, are considered “resident enterprises” and subject to the uniform 25% enterprise income tax rate for their global income. According to the Implementation Rules, “de facto management body” refers to a managing body that in practice exercises overall management and control over the production and business, personnel, accounting and assets of an enterprise. Our management is currently based in China and is expected to remain in China in the future. In addition, although the EIT Law provides that “dividends, bonuses and other equity investment proceeds between qualified resident enterprises” is exempted income, and the Implementation Rules refer to “dividends, bonuses and other equity investment proceeds between qualified resident enterprises” as the investment proceeds obtained by a resident enterprise from its direct investment in another resident enterprise, however, it is unclear whether our circumstance is eligible for exemption.

Furthermore, the EIT Law and Implementation Rules provide that the “non-resident enterprises” are subject to the enterprise income tax rate of 10% on their income sourced from China, if such “non-resident enterprises” (i) do not have establishments or premises of business in China or (ii) have establishments or premises of business in China, but the relevant income does not have actual connection with their establishments or premises of business in China. Such income tax may be exempted or reduced by the State Council of the PRC or pursuant to a tax treaty between China and the jurisdictions in which its non-PRC shareholders reside. Under the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement between Hong Kong and Mainland China, if the Hong Kong resident enterprise owns more than 25% of the equity interest in a company in China, the 10% withholding tax on the dividends the Hong Kong resident enterprise received from such company in China is reduced to 5%. If China Net HK is considered to be a Hong Kong resident enterprise under the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement and is considered to be a “non-resident enterprise” under the EIT Law, the dividends paid to us by Rise King WFOE may be subject to the reduced income tax rate of 5% under the Double Tax Avoidance Arrangement. However, based on the Notice on Certain Issues with Respect to the Enforcement of Dividend Provisions in Tax Treaties, issued on February 20, 2009 by the State Administration of Taxation, if the relevant PRC tax authorities determine, in their discretion, that a company benefits from such reduced income tax rate due to a structure or arrangement that is primarily tax-driven, such PRC tax authorities may adjust the preferential tax treatment.

We are in the process of evaluating the impact of the EIT Law on our results of operations. Any significant income tax expenses may have a material adverse effect on our net income in 2008 and beyond. Reduction or elimination of the financial subsidies or preferential tax treatments we currently enjoy or imposition of additional taxes on us or our subsidiary in China may significantly increase our income tax expense and materially reduce our net income.

Provisions Regarding Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including CSRC, MOC, SAT, SASAC, SAIC and SAFE, jointly promulgated the M&A Rules, which became effective on September 8, 2006, to regulate foreign investment in PRC domestic enterprises. The M&A Rules provide that the MOC must be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction in which a foreign investor takes control of a PRC domestic enterprise and any of the following situations exist: (i) the transaction involves an important industry in China; (ii) the transaction may affect national “economic security”; or (iii) the PRC domestic enterprise has a well-known trademark or historical Chinese trade name in China. The M&A Rules also contain a provision requiring offshore SPVs formed for the purpose of the overseas listing of equity interests in PRC companies and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals, to obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to publicly listing their securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC issued a clarification that sets forth the criteria and procedures for obtaining any required approval from the CSRC.

To date, the application of the M&A Rules is unclear. Our PRC counsel, has advised us that:

•

the CSRC approval requirement applies to SPVs that acquire equity interests in PRC companies through share exchanges and cash, and seek overseas listings; and

•

based on their understanding of the current PRC laws, rules and regulations and the M&A Rules, unless there are new PRC laws and regulations or clear requirements from the CSRC in any form that require the prior approval of the CSRC for the listing and trading of any overseas SPV’s securities on an overseas stock exchange, the M&A Rules do not require that we obtain prior CSRC approval because: (i) the Share Exchange is a purely foreign related transaction governed by foreign laws, not subject to the jurisdiction of PRC laws and regulations; (ii) we are not a special purpose vehicle formed or controlled by PRC companies or PRC individuals; and (iii) we are owned or substantively controlled by foreigners.

However, the interpretation and application of the M&A Rules remain unclear, and the PRC government authorities have the sole discretion to determine whether the transaction is subject to the approval of the CSRC, especially when taking into consideration of the performance-based incentive option arrangement by way of the Share Transfer Agreements. If the CSRC or another PRC regulatory agency subsequently determines that CSRC approval is required for the transaction, we cannot predict how long it would take to obtain the approval. In addition, we may need to apply for a remedial approval from the CSRC and may be subject to certain administrative or other sanctions from these regulatory agencies.

Further, new rules and regulations or relevant interpretations may be issued from time to time that may require us to obtain retroactive approval from the CSRC in connection with the business combination. If this were to occur, our failure to obtain or delay in obtaining the CSRC approval for the business combination would subject us to sanctions imposed by the CSRC and other PRC regulatory agencies. These sanctions could include fines and penalties on our operations in China, restrictions or limitations on our ability to pay dividends outside of China, and other forms of sanctions that may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If the CSRC or another PRC regulatory agency subsequently determines that CSRC approval is required for the business combination, we may need to apply for a remedial approval from the CSRC and may be subject to certain administrative punishments or other sanctions from these regulatory agencies. New rules and regulations or relevant interpretations may require that we retroactively obtain approval from the CSRC in connection with the business combination. If this were to occur, our failure to obtain or delay in obtaining the CSRC approval for the transaction would subject us to sanctions imposed by the CSRC and other PRC regulatory agencies. These sanctions could include fines and penalties on our operations in China, restrictions or limitations on our ability to pay dividends outside of China, and other forms of sanctions that may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The M&A Rules also established additional procedures and requirements expected to make merger and acquisition activities in China by foreign investors more time-consuming and complex, including requirements in some instances that the MOC be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction in which a foreign investor takes control of a PRC domestic enterprise. These rules may also require the approval from the MOC where overseas companies established or controlled by PRC enterprises or residents acquire affiliated domestic companies. Complying with the requirements of the new regulations to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including MOC approval, may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our ability to expand our business.

Code of Ethics

The Code will cover compliance with law; fair and honest dealings with the company, with competitors and with others; fair and honest disclosure to the public; and procedures for compliance with the Code.

Board Composition

The Board of Directors is currently composed of three members. All actions of the Board of Directors require the approval of a majority of the directors in attendance at a meeting at which a quorum is present. A quorum is a majority of the Board of Directors.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our Board of Directors currently acts as our audit committee. We currently do not have a member of the Board of Directors who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K and is “independent” as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3) (iv) of Schedule 14A under the Exchange Act. Our Board of Directors is in the process of searching for a suitable candidate for this position.

Audit Committee

We have not yet appointed an audit committee. At the present time, we believe that the members of the board of directors are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.

Policy Regarding Board Attendance

Our directors are expected to attend board meetings as frequently as necessary to properly discharge their responsibilities and to spend the time needed to prepare for each such meeting. Our directors are expected to attend annual meetings of stockholders, but we do not have a formal policy requiring them to do so.

Shareholder Communications

The Company has a process for shareholders who wish to communicate with the board of directors. Shareholders who wish to communicate with the Board may write to it at the Company’s address given above. These communications will be reviewed by one or more employees of the Company designated by the Board, who will determine whether they should be presented to the Board. The purpose of this screening is to allow the Board to avoid having to consider irrelevant or inappropriate communications.

Background and Compensation Philosophy

Our Board of Directors has not adopted or established a formal policy or procedure for determining the amount of compensation paid to our executive officers. No pre-established, objective performance goals or metrics have been used by the Board of Directors in determining the compensation of our executive officers.

Elements of Compensation

Some of our executive officers receive a base salary to compensate them for services rendered during the year. Our policy of compensating our certain executives with a cash salary has served the Company well. Because of our history of attracting and retaining executive talent, we do not believe it is necessary at this time to provide our executives equity incentives, or other benefits for the Company to continue to be successful.

Base Salary and Bonus . The value of base salary and bonus for each our executive reflects his skill set and the market value of that skill set in the sole discretion of the Board of Director.

Equity Incentives . The Company and its subsidiaries have not established an equity based incentive program and have not granted stock based awards as a component of compensation. In the future, we may make awards under an equity incentive plan pursuant to which awards may be granted if our Compensation Committee determines that it is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to do so.

Retirement Benefits. Our executive officers are not presently entitled to company-sponsored retirement benefits.

Perquisites . We have not provided our executive officers with any material perquisites and other personal benefits and, therefore, we do not view perquisites as a significant or necessary element of our executive’s compensation.

Deferred Compensation . We do not provide our executives the opportunity to defer receipt of annual compensation.

Summary Compensation Table

The following table sets forth all cash compensation paid by the Company, as well as certain other compensation paid or accrued, for each of the last two fiscal years of our company to each named executive officers.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

To comply with these foreign ownership restrictions, we operate our business in China through a series of contractual arrangements with the PRC Operating Subsidiaries and its shareholders. Some of the shareholders of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries are also our directors and executive officers. These agreements are summarized as follows:

Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreements

Exclusive Option Agreements

Equity Pledge Agreements

Irrevocable Powers of Attorney

The PRC Shareholders have each executed an irrevocable powers of attorney, dated as of October 8, 2008, to appoint Rise King WFOE as their exclusive attorneys-in-fact to vote on their behalf on all PRC Operating Subsidiary matters requiring shareholder approval. The term of each power of attorney is valid so long as such shareholder is a shareholder of the respective PRC Operating Subsidiary.

Share Transfer Agreement

Each of the PRC Shareholders entered into a share transfer agreement (the “Share Transfer Agreements”) with Mr. Yang Li, the sole shareholder of Rise King BVI, which is a 55% shareholder of China Net for purpose of granting incentive options to the PRC Shareholders for the contributions that they have made and will continue to make to Rise King BVI. Under the Share Transfer Agreements, Mr. Li granted to each of the PRC Shareholders an option to acquire, in the aggregate 10,000 shares of Rise King BVI (4,600 by Mr. Handong Cheng, 3,600 by Mr. Xuanfu Liu and 1,800 by Ms. Li Sun), representing 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rise King BVI, at a purchase price of $1 per share (the par value of Rise King BVI’s common stock), provided that certain financial performance thresholds are met by the China Net Companies.

Under the terms of each Share Transfer Agreement, the PRC Shareholders will have the right to purchase the aggregate 10,000 shares of Rise King BVI as follows: (1) one-third of the shares at $1 per share if the China Net Companies generate at least RMB 100,000,000 of gross revenue for the twelve-month period from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2009; (2) one-third of the shares at $1 per share when the China Net Companies generate at least RMB 60,000,000 of gross revenue for the six-month period from January 1, 2010 to June 30, 2010; and (3) one-third of the shares at $1 per share when the China Net Companies generate at least RMB 60,000,000 of gross revenue for the six-month period from July 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010. In the event that the China Net Companies do not achieve any of the performance targets specified above, the PRC Shareholders may exercise the applicable option at the alternative exercise price of $2 per share. If the PRC Shareholders purchase all shares eligible for purchase under the Share Transfer Agreement, the PRC Shareholders will become China Net’s controlling shareholders through their beneficial ownership of Rise King BVI.

The Share Transfer Agreements were entered into on April 28, 2009. Subject to registering with the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) prior to the exercise and issuance of the option shares under the Share Transfer Agreements, which is an administrative task, there is no prohibition under PRC laws for the PRC Shareholders to earn an interest in Rise King BVI after the PRC Restructuring is consummated in compliance with PRC law.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, securities that are currently convertible or exercisable into shares of our Common Stock, or convertible or exercisable into shares of our Common Stock within 60 days of the date hereof are deemed outstanding. Such shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as indicated in the footnotes to the following table, each stockholder named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares set forth opposite such stockholder’s name. The percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 15,774,300 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 15, 2009.

Includes the total number of shares of Common Stock that each Selling Stockholder intends to sell, regardless of the 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation, more fully explained in footnote 3.

Pursuant to the terms of the Warrants and the Certificate of Designation for the 10% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), at no time may a purchaser of Series A Preferred Stock convert such purchaser’s shares into shares of our Common Stock if the conversion would result in such purchaser beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) more than 9.99% of our then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that upon a purchaser providing us with sixty-one days’ notice that such purchaser wishes to waive the cap, then the cap will be of no force or effect with regard to all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Stock referenced in the waiver notice. Similarly under the terms of the Warrants, at no time may a holder exercise such holder’s Warrant if the exercise would result in such holder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) more than 9.99% of our then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that upon a purchaser providing us with sixty-one days’ notice that such purchaser wishes to waive the cap, then the cap will be of no force or effect with regard to all or a portion of the shares referenced in the waiver notice. The 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation does not prevent a stockholder from selling some of its holdings and then receiving additional shares. Accordingly, each stockholder could exercise and sell more than 9.99% of our Common Stock without ever at any one time holding more than this limit.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their Shares on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the Shares are traded or quoted or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling Shares:

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits investors;

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the Shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

privately negotiated transactions;

to cover short sales made after the date that this registration statement is declared effective by the SEC;

broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such Shares at a stipulated price per share;

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

a combination of any such methods of sale; and

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The Selling Stockholders may also sell Shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of the Common Stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of Shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.

The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of Common Stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of Selling Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus.

The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the Shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the Shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of Securities will be paid by the Selling Stockholder and/or the purchasers. Each Selling Stockholder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such Selling Stockholder’s business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such Selling Stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.

TriPoint Global Equities is a registered broker dealer and FINRA member firm and listed as a selling stockholder in this prospectus. TriPoint Global Equities, LLC served as placement agent for our Financing, which was completed on August 21, 2009.

The registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part includes the shares of Common Stock underlying warrants granted to TriPoint Global Equities, LLC. The warrants granted to TriPoint Global Equities, LLC expire on August 20, 2014. The 659,456 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of placement agent warrants received by TriPoint Global Equities, LLC are transferable within TriPoint or to its assigns or designees, at the discretion of TriPoint Global Equities, LLC.

In connection with the Share Exchange, Tripoint Capital Advisors, an affiliate of TriPoint Global Equities, LLC received 300,000 shares of our Common Stock in June 2009.

TriPoint Global Equities, LLC does not have an underwriting agreement with us and/or the Selling Stockholders and no Selling Stockholders are required to execute transactions through TriPoint Global Equities, LLC. Further, other than any existing brokerage relationship as customers with TriPoint Global Equities, LLC, no Selling Stockholders has any pre-arranged agreement, written or otherwise, with TriPoint Global Equities, LLC to sell their securities through TriPoint Global Equities, LLC.

FINRA Rule 5110 requires FINRA member firms (unless an exemption applies) to satisfy the filing requirements of Rule 5110 in connection with the resale, on behalf of Selling Stockholders, of the securities on a principal or agency basis. NASD Notice to Members 88-101 states that in the event a Selling Stockholder intends to sell any of the shares registered for resale in this prospectus through a member of FINRA participating in a distribution of our securities, such member is responsible for insuring that a timely filing, if required, is first made with the Corporate Finance Department of FINRA and disclosing to FINRA the following:

it intends to take possession of the registered securities or to facilitate the transfer of such certificates;

the complete details of how the selling shareholders’ shares are and will be held, including location of the particular accounts;

whether the member firm or any direct or indirect affiliates thereof have entered into, will facilitate or otherwise participate in any type of payment transaction with the selling shareholders, including details regarding any such transactions; and

in the event any of the securities offered by the selling shareholders are sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated by any selling shareholder in a transaction that directly or indirectly involves a member firm of FINRA or any affiliates thereof, that prior to or at the time of said transaction the member firm will timely file all relevant documents with respect to such transaction(s) with the Corporate Finance Department of FINRA for review.

No FINRA member firm may receive compensation in excess of that allowable under FINRA rules, including Rule 2710, in connection with the resale of the securities by the selling shareholders, which total compensation may not exceed 8%.

We have advised each Selling Stockholder that it may not use Shares registered on this registration statement to cover short sales of Common Stock made prior to the date on which this registration statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a Selling Stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the Common Stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such Selling Stockholders in connection with resales of their respective Shares under this registration statement.

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the Shares, but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Without the affirmative vote or consent of the holder of a majority of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a meeting, in which the holders of the series A preferred stock vote separately as a class, such actions are prohibited. Except with respect to transactions upon which the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote separately as a class and as otherwise required by Nevada law, each of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible, up to such number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such holder and its affiliates at such time, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such holder and its affiliates at such time, result in such holder beneficially owning no more than of 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter. Except as provided in this Certificate of Designation or as otherwise required by Nevada law, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class. The shares of common stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock are convertible will, upon issuance, have all of the same voting rights as other issued and outstanding shares of common stock and none of the rights of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Dividends Rights

The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends payable quarterly at the rate of 10% per annum within 30 days following the last business day of each August, November, February and May of each year.

Conversion of Series A Preferred Stock

At any time on or after the issuance date, the holder of any such shares of Series A Preferred Stock may, at the holder’s option, elect to convert all or any portion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such person into a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock equal to the quotient of (i) the series A liquidation preference amount ($2.50) of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock being converted divided by (ii) the conversion price, which initially is $2.50 per share, subject to certain adjustments, such as in the event of (i) combination, stock split, or reclassification of the common stock; (ii) distribution of dividends; (iii) reclassification, exchange or substitution, (iv) reorganization, merger, consolidation or sales of assets or (iv) the issuance or sale of additional shares of common stock or common stock equivalents. Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation when in effect, at no time may a holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock convert into shares of common stock if the number of shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion would cause the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by such holder and its affiliates at such time, when aggregated with all other shares of common stock owned by such holder and its affiliates at such time, result in such holder and its affiliates beneficially owning in excess of 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock at such time. However, a holder of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to waive this cap upon a 61-day notice to us.

Failure to Timely Convert

If within three business days, with respect to our Common Stock being issued upon conversion, and within five business days in the event a new preferred stock certificate is being issued, of our receipt of an executed copy of a conversion notice the transfer agent fails to issue and deliver to a holder the number of shares of common stock to which such holder is entitled upon such holder’s conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or within five trading days fails to issue a new preferred stock certificate representing the number of Series A Preferred Stock to which such holder is entitled, we will pay additional damages to such holder on each trading day after such third or fifth trading day, as the case may be, that such conversion is not timely effected in an amount equal to 0.5% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of common stock not issued to the holder on a timely basis and to which such holder is entitled and, in the event we failed to deliver a preferred stock certificate to the holder on a timely basis, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock represented by such certificate, as of the last possible date which we could have issued such certificate to such holder timely and (B) the closing bid price of our Common Stock on the last possible date which we could have issued such Common Stock and such preferred stock certificate, as the case may be, to such holder timely. If we fail to pay those additional damages within five trading days of the date incurred, then such payment will bear interest at the rate of 2.0% per month (prorated for partial months) until such payments are made.

For the purposes of this provision with respect to our common stock, the term “closing bid price” shall mean, for any security as of any date, the last closing bid price of such security on the NASDAQ or other principal exchange on which such security is traded as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no closing bid price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the last closing trade price of such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no last closing trade price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices of any market makers for such security as reported in the “pink sheets” by Pink OTC Markets, Inc. If the closing bid price cannot be calculated for such security on such date on any of the foregoing bases, the closing bid price of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable.

Liquidation Preference of Series A Preferred Stock

In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding are entitled to receive, out of our assets available for distribution to stockholders, a liquidation preference amount of $2.50 per share for the Series A Preferred Stock, before any payment is made or any assets are distributed to the holders of the common stock or any other junior stock. If our assets are not sufficient to pay in full the liquidation preference amount payable to the holders of outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock preferred stock or any other class of stock ranking pari passu, as to rights on liquidation, dissolution or winding up, then all of said assets will be distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and the other classes of stock ranking pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock, if any, ratably in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. All payments pursuant thereto are to be in cash, property (valued at its fair market value as determined by an independent appraiser chosen by us and reasonably acceptable to the holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock) or a combination thereof; provided, however, that no cash is to be paid to holders of junior stock unless each holder of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been paid in cash the full liquidation preference amount to which such holder is entitled as provided herein.

Series A-1 and A-2 Warrants

Pursuant to the financing we completed on August 21, 2009, we issued a Series A-1 Warrant to purchase 2,060,800 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 and a Series A-2 Warrant to purchase 2,060,800 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.75 (collectively, the “Series A Warrants”). The Series A-1 Warrants and the Series A-2 Warrants have three-year and five-year terms, respectively, from issuance date. As of the date of this prospectus, none of the Series A Warrants have been exercised.

Commencing 24 months following the closing of the financing, if the market value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the applicable Series A Warrant Price and the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part is not in effect as required under the Registration Rights Agreement, in lieu of exercising a warrant by payment of cash, a holder of a Series A Warrant may exercise the warrant by a cashless exercise, in which event we will issue to the holder a number of shares of our Common Stock computed using the following formula:

X = Y – (A)(Y)

Where

X =

the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the warrant holder.

Y =

the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of all of the warrant or, if only a portion of the warrant is being exercised, the portion of the warrant being exercised.

A =

the warrant price.

B =

the per share market value of one share of Common Stock.

In addition, if at any time after the effective date of the Registration Statement, the Registration Statement ceases to be effective, then, subject to certain exceptions, a holder of a Series A Warrant may exercise the warrant by cashless exercise.

The exercise price and number of shares of our Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in the event of a stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation and the issuance of rights to purchase additional shares of our Common Stock or to receive other securities convertible into additional shares of Common Stock.

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Series A Warrants. If, upon exercise of a warrant, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will pay to the holder cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then fair market value of one full share. Pursuant to the terms of the Series A Warrants, we will not effect the exercise of any warrants, and no person who is a holder of any warrant has the right to exercise his/her warrant, if after giving effect to such exercise, such person would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the then outstanding shares of our Common Stock. However, a holder of Series A Warrants is entitled to waive this cap upon a 61-day notice to us.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) and our bylaws and articles of incorporation.

Under the NRS, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a company’s articles of incorporation that is not the case with our articles of incorporation. Excepted from that immunity are:

(1)

a willful failure to deal fairly with the company or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest;

(2)

a violation of criminal law (unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful);

(3)

a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit; and

(4)

willful misconduct.

Our bylaws and articles of incorporation provide that we will indemnify our directors, officers, employees, and agents, to the fullest extent to the extent required by the NRS and shall indemnify such individuals to the extent permitted by the NRS. We may purchase and maintain liability insurance, or make other arrangements for such obligations or otherwise, to the extent permitted by the NRS.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Dividends

We have never paid any dividends and we plan to retain earnings, if any, for use in the development of the business. Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of the board of directors after taking into account various factors, including current financial condition, operating results and current and anticipated cash needs. If we ever determine to pay a dividend, we may experience difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency from China for the payment of such dividends from the profits of the PRC Operating Subsidiaries. We have not paid any cash dividends on shares of our common stock and do not plan to do so in the near future. We currently plan to retain future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. Any future determination related to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our board of directors.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

Our 2009 Omnibus Securities and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) provides for the granting of distribution equivalent rights, incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, performance share awards, performance unit awards, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, stock appreciation rights, tandem stock appreciation rights, unrestricted stock awards or any combination of the foregoing, as may be best suited to the circumstances of the particular employee, director or consultant as provided herein (the “Awards”). Certain Awards are intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of our Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). The Plan was approved by our Board on October 30, 2009, but has not yet been approved by our stockholders.

The total number of shares of our common stock that may be issued under the Plan may not exceed 5,000,000. In connection with the Financing, we agreed that during a period ending on August 20, 2012, such issuances shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company in the aggregate.

Equity Repurchases

In connection with the Share Exchange, we repurchased and cancelled 4,400,000 shares of our Common Stock from our then stockholder G. Edward Hancock in June 2009.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION

ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

The following is a summary of the relevant provisions in our articles of incorporation, bylaws and Nevada law with regard to limitation of liability and indemnification of our officers, directors and employees. The full provisions are contained in the Nevada Revised Statutes and such documents.

Indemnification. Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by our articles of incorporation, our bylaws and the Nevada Revised Statutes. Our bylaws and articles of incorporation provide that we will indemnify our directors, officers, employees, and agents, to the fullest extent to the extent required by the Nevada Revised Statutes and shall indemnify such individuals to the extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes. We may purchase and maintain liability insurance, or make other arrangements for such obligations or otherwise, to the extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes. Our bylaws and Nevada laws permit us to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he has exercised his powers in good faith and with a view to the interests of the corporation; or acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

We will indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amount paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

Limitation of Liability. Our articles of incorporation limit the liability of our directors and officers under certain circumstances. Our articles of incorporation provide that the liability of directors or officers for monetary damages are eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.

In the event that a claim for indemnification against these types of liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will (unless in the opinion of our counsel, the matter has been settled by controlling precedent) submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction, the question whether indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The legal process relating to this matter if it were to occur is likely to be very costly and may result in us receiving negative publicity, both of which are likely to materially reduce the market and price for our shares.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of the shares of our Common Stock offered hereby has been passed upon for us by Lewis and Roca LLP, Las Vegas, Nevada.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.	Organization and principal activities

ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Emazing Interactive, Inc.), (the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of Texas in April 2006 and re-domiciled to become a Nevada corporation in October 2006. From the date of the Company’s incorporation until June 26, 2009, when the Company consummated the Share Exchange, the Company’s activities were primarily concentrated in web server access and company branding in hosting web based e-games.

On June 26, 2009, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), with (i) China Net Online Media Group Limited, a company organized under the laws of British Virgin Islands (“China Net BVI”), (ii) China Net BVI’s shareholders, Allglad Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Allglad”), Growgain Limited, a British Virgin Islands company ("Growgain"), Rise King Investments Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Rise King BVI”), Star (China) Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Star”), Surplus Elegant Investment Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Surplus”), Clear Jolly Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Clear” and together with Allglad, Growgain, Rise King BVI, Star and Surplus, the “China Net BVI Shareholders”), who together owned shares constituting 100% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of China Net BVI (the “China Net BVI Shares”) and (iii) G. Edward Hancock, the principal stockholder of the Company at that time. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the China Net BVI Shareholders transferred to the Company all of the China Net BVI Shares in exchange for the issuance of 13,790,800 shares (the “Exchange Shares”) of the Company’s common stock (the “Share Exchange”). As a result of the Share Exchange, China Net BVI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company is now a holding company, which through certain contractual arrangements with operating companies in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), is engaged in providing advertising, marketing and communication services to small and medium companies in China through www.28.com (the portal website of the Company’s PRC Variable Interest Entity), TV medias and bank kiosks.

The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, China Net BVI was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on August 13, 2007. In April 11, 2008, China Net BVI became the parent holding company of a group of companies comprised of CNET Online Technology Limited, a Hong Kong company (“China Net HK”), which established and is the parent company of Rise King Century Technology Development (Beijing) Co., Ltd., a wholly foreign-owned enterprise (“WFOE”) established in the PRC (“Rise King WFOE”). The Company refers to the transactions that resulted in China Net BVI becoming an indirect parent company of Rise King WFOE as the “Offshore Restructuring.” Through a series of contractual agreements, we operate our business in China primarily through Business Opportunity Online (Beijing) Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“Business Opportunity Online”) and Beijing CNET Online Advertising Co., Ltd. (“Beijing CNET Online”). Beijing CNET Online owns 51% of Shanghai Borongdingsi Computer Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Borongdingsi”). Business Opportunity Online, Beijing CNET Online and Shanghai Borongdingsi, were incorporated on December 8, 2004, January 27, 2003 and August 3, 2005, respectively. From time to time, we refer to them collectively as the “PRC Operating Entities.”

2.	Summary of significant accounting policies

Change of reporting entity and basis of presentation

As a result of the Share Exchange on June 26, 2009, the former China Net BVI shareholders owned a majority of the common stock of the Company. The transaction was regarded as a reverse merger whereby China Net BVI was considered to be the accounting acquirer as its shareholders retained control of the Company after the Share Exchange, although the Company is the legal parent company. The share exchange was treated as a recapitalization of the Company. As such, China Net BVI (and its historical financial statements) is the continuing entity for financial reporting purposes. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange, Emazing Interactive, Inc. was delivered with zero assets and zero liabilities at time of closing. Following the Share Exchange, the company changed its name from Emazing Interactive, Inc. to ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. The Financial Statements have been prepared as if China Net BVI had always been the reporting company and then on the share exchange date, had changed its name and reorganized its capital stock.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its subsidiaries and Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”), China Net BVI, China Net HK, Rise King WFOE, Beijing CNET Online and Business Opportunity Online. According to the agreements between Beijing CNET Online and Shanghai Borongdingsi, although Beijing CNET Online legally owns 51% of Shanghai Borongdingsi’s interests, Beijing CNET Online only controls the assets and liabilities related to the bank kiosks business, which has been all included in the financial statements of Beijing CNET Online, but not controls other assets of Shanghai Borongdingsi, thus, Shanghai Borongdingsi’s financial statements were not consolidated by the Company. The Company and its subsidiaries and VIEs are collectively referred to as the “Group”.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by US GAAP for completing annual financial statements. However, management believes that the disclosures are adequate to ensure the information presented is not misleading.

In the opinion of the management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in China Net BVI’s audited financial statements on Form 8-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not indicative of the operating results to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2009.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of all the subsidiaries and VIEs of the Company. All transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries and VIEs have been eliminated upon consolidation.

c)	Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ from those estimates. US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, contingencies and results of operations. While management has based their assumptions and estimates on the facts and circumstances existing as of June 30, 2009, final amounts may differ from these estimates.

d)	Foreign currency translation

The functional currency of the Company is United States dollars (“US$”), and the functional currency of China Net HK is Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”). The functional currency of the Company’s PRC operating entities is Renminbi (“RMB’), and PRC is the primary economic environment in which the Company operates.

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company’s PRC operating entities, which are prepared using the RMB, are translated into the Company’s reporting currency, the United States Dollar (“U.S. dollar”). Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated using average rates prevailing during each reporting period, and shareholders' equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity.

e)	Revenue recognition

The Group's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB 104”). In accordance with SAB 104, revenues are recognized when the four of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the service has been rendered, (iii) the fees are fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

Advertising Revenue

Advertising revenues include revenues from reselling of advertising time purchased from TV stations and internet advertising, reselling of internet advertising spaces and other advertisement related resources. No revenue from advertising-for-advertising barter transactions was recognized because the transactions did not meet the criteria for recognition in EITF abstract issue No. 99-17. Advertising contracts establish the fixed price and advertising services to be provided. Pursuant to advertising contracts, the Group provides advertisement placements in different formats, including but not limited to banners, links, logos, buttons, rich media and content integration. Revenue is recognized ratably over the period the advertising is provided and, as such, the Group considers the services to have been delivered. The Group treats all elements of advertising contracts as a single unit of accounting for revenue recognition purposes. Based upon the Group’s credit assessments of its customers prior to entering into contracts, the Group determines if collectability is reasonably assured. In situations where collectability is not deemed to be reasonably assured, the Group recognizes revenue upon receipt of cash from customers, only after services have been provided and all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met.

f)	Cost of revenue

Cost of sales primarily includes media advertising time, internet advertisement related resources and other technical services purchased from third parties, labor cost and benefits and PRC business tax.

g)	Advertising expenditure

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred and are included in “selling expenses” in the statement of operations and comprehensive income. For the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, advertising expenses were approximately US$ 1,977,000 and US$ 352,000, respectively.

h)	Income taxes

The Group follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between of the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Group records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income statement in the period that includes the enactment date. The Group had no deferred tax assets and liabilities recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and for the year ended December 31, 2008.

i)	Uncertain tax positions

The Group adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures. For the six month ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and for the year ended December 31, 2008, the Group did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions and did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

j)	Share-based Compensation

The Company account for stock-based compensation arrangements using the fair value method in accordance with the provisions of the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No, 123 (revised 2004) (Share-Based Payment) (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R is a revision of SFAS 123 (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation), and supersedes Accounting Principles Beard (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees). SFAS 123R requires that the fair value of share awards issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled after implementation, under share-based payment arrangements, be measured as of the date the award is issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled. The resulting cost is then recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive income over the service period.

The Company periodically issue common stock for acquisitions and services rendered. Common stock issued in these circumstances is valued at the estimated fair market value, as determined by the management and board of directors. Management and the board of directors consider market price quotations, recent stock offering prices and other factors in determining fair market value for purposes of valuing the common stock.

k)	Earnings per share

Earnings per share are calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income attributable to holders of common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

15.	Reverse merger and common stock (restatement of the stockholders’ equity)

Pursuant to SEC Manual Item 2.6.5.4 Reverse acquisitions, which requires that “in a reverse acquisition the historical shareholder’s equity of the accounting acquirer prior to the merger is retroactively reclassified (a recapitalization) for the equivalent number of shares received in the merger after giving effect to any difference in par value of the registrant’s and the accounting acquirer’s stock by an offset in paid in capital.”

Pursuant to the terms of Share Exchange Agreement, the China Net BVI shareholders transferred to the Company all of the China Net BVI shares in exchange for the issuance of 13,790,800 shares of the Company’s common stock. Therefore, the Company reclassified its common stock and additional paid-in-capital accounts for the year ended December 31, 2008 accordingly.

Immediately prior to the Share Exchange, 4,400,000 shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock were cancelled and retired. China Net BVI also deposited $300,000 into an escrow account, which amount was paid to Emazing principal stockholder, who owned the 4,400,000 shares, as a result of the Share Exchange have been consummated.

16.	Restricted net assets

The Company’s ability to pay dividends is primarily dependent on the Company receiving distributions of funds from its PRC operating entities. Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by the Group’s PRC operating entities only out of their retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The results of operations reflected in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of the Company’s PRC operating entities.

In accordance with the Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment of China and their articles of association, a foreign invested enterprise established in the PRC is required to provide certain statutory reserves, namely general reserve fund, the enterprise expansion fund and staff welfare and bonus fund which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise is required to allocate at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit to the general reserve until such reserve has reached 50% of its respective registered capital based on the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. Appropriations to the enterprise expansion fund and staff welfare and bonus fund are at the discretion of the board of directors for all foreign invested enterprises. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. Rising King WFOE was established as a wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise and therefore is subject to the above mandated restrictions on distributable profits.

Additionally, in accordance with the Company Law of the PRC, a domestic enterprise is required to provide statutory common reserve at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit until such reserve has reached 50% of its respective registered capital based on the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A domestic enterprise is also required to provide for discretionary surplus reserve, at the discretion of the board of directors, from the profits determined in accordance with the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. China Net Beijing and Business Opportunity Online were established as a domestic invested enterprise and therefore are subject to the above mandated restrictions on distributable profits.

As a result of these PRC laws and regulations that require annual appropriations of 10% of after-tax income to be set aside prior to payment of dividends as general reserve fund, the Company’s PRC operating entities are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Company.

Amounts restricted include paid-in capital and statutory reserve funds of the Company’s PRC operating entities as determined pursuant to PRC generally accepted accounting principles, totaling approximately US$ 907,000 as of June 30, 2009.

CHINA NET ONLINE MEDIA GROUP LIMITED

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CNET Online Beijing and 28.com were commonly controlled by the same three shareholders, with ownership of 46% by Mr. Handong CHENG, 36% by Mr. Xuanfu LIU and 18% by Ms. Li SUN respectively (collectively “the Control Group”) prior to a reorganization (“the Reorganization”) in October, 2008.

In order to comply with PRC laws and regulations which prohibit foreign control of companies in certain industries and in contemplation of a reverse acquisition (“Acquisition”) with a public shell company in the United States by the Company, effective control over CNET Online Beijing and 28.com was transferred to Rise King Century (the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) through a series of contractual arrangements without transferring legal ownership in CNET Online Beijing and 28.com (see Note 2). As a result of these contractual arrangements, Rise King Century maintained the ability to approve decision made by CNET Online Beijing and 28.com and was entitled to substantially all of the economic benefits of CNET Online Beijing and 28.com. Therefore, the Company consolidates CNET Online Beijing and 28.com in accordance with Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements”, and its related interpretations (including but not limited to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 94, “Consolidation of All Majority—Owned Subsidiaries”, and FASB Interpretation No. 46R., “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51” (“FIN 46R”)) and Regulation S-X 3A-02.

PRC laws and regulations restrict foreign ownership of companies that provide internet content or information services.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Group ’ s best estimate of the amount of proba ble credit losses in the Group ’ s existing accounts receivable. The Group determines the allowance based on aging data, historical collection experience, customer specific facts and economic conditions. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of colle ction have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumst ances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value. There were no impairment losses in the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 ..

h)	Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalent s , accounts receivables from third and related parties , other receivables, amount due from Control Group and director, other current assets, accounts payable, other payables and amount due to related parties, Control Group and director approximate their fair values due to their short term nature.

The fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flow using an int erest rate which approximated the rate for which the financial institution would charge borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities.

i)	Revenue recognition

The Group's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”. (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the service has been rendered, (iii) the fees are fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

Advertising Revenue

Advertising revenues include revenues from reselling of advertising time purchased from TV stations and internet advertising, reselling of internet advertising spaces and sponsored search services. No revenue from advertising-for-advertising barter transactions was recognized because the transactions did not meet the criteria for recognition in EITF abstract issue no 99-17. Advertising contracts establish the fixed price and advertising services to be provided. Pursuant to advertising contracts, the Group provides advertisement placements in different formats, including but not limited to banners, links, logos, buttons, rich media and content integration. Revenue is recognized ratably over the period the advertising is provided and, as such, the Group considers the services to have been delivered. The Group treats all elements of advertising contracts as a single unit of accounting for revenue recognition purposes. Based upon the Group’s credit assessments of its customers prior to entering into contracts, the Group determines if collectability is reasonably assured. In situations where collectability is not deemed to be reasonably assured, the Group recognizes revenue upon receipt of cash from customers, only after services have been provided and all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met.

j)	Cost of revenue

	Cost of sales primarily includes services and media resources purchased from third parties, labor cost and benefits and PRC business tax.

k)	Advertising cost

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred and are included in “selling expenses” in the statement of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, advertising expenses were approximately US$1,937,000 and US$1,790,000 respectively.

l)	Resear ch and development expenses

Research and development expenses, related to both present and future service offerings are charged to operations as incurred. Expenses for research and development for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 were approximately US$202,000 and US$106,000 respectively.

Lease

Leases are classified at the inception date as either a capital lease or an operating lease. For the lessee, a lease is a capital lease if any of the following conditions exists: a) ownership is transferred to the lessee by the end of the lease term, b) there is a bargain purchase option, c) the lease term is at least 75% of the property’s estimated remaining economic life or d) the present value of the minimum lease payments at the beginning of the lease term is 90% or more of the fair value of the leased property to the lesser at the inception date. A capital lease is accounted for as if there was an acquisition of an asset and an incurrence of an obligation at the inception of the lease. All other leases are accounted for as operating leases wherein rental payments are expensed as incurred. The Group had no capital lease for any of the periods stated herein.

n)	Income taxes

o)	Uncertain tax positions

The Group adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board I nterpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“ FIN 48” ), on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 prescribes a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a ta x return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, account i ng for income taxes in interim period s, and income tax disclosures. For the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 , the Group did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions and the Group did not have any significant unrecognized uncer tain tax positions.

p)	Earning per share

Earning per share is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income attributable to holders of common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

q)	Comprehensive income

Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a company during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments from owners and distributions to owners. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented on the accompany ing consolidated balance sheets are the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment s ..

SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Although management will continue to evaluate the application of SFAS No. 157, management does not currently believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact on the Group’s results of operations or financial position.

FASB statement No. 159 (“ SFAS No. 159” )

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 , Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities .

On December 4, 2007 the FASB issued SFAS No. 160 , “ Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – An Amendment of ARB No. 51 ” ( “ SFAS160 ” ). SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the non - controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsi diary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of a non-controlling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent ’ s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the non-contro lling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent ’ s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent ret ains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the non-controlling equity in vestment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its non-controlling interest. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beg inning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. Although management will continue to evaluate the application of SFAS No. 160, management does not currently believe the adoption of SFAS No. 160 will have a material impact on the Group’s results of operations or financial position.

t)	Significant risks

Policy risk

Internet Industry

Internet content providers (ICP) are under strict supervision, and are not opened up to foreign merchants temporarily. As the Company’s PRC VIE, 28.com is not owned by foreign enterprise, ICP certificate of 28.com will not be cancelled.

Bank kiosk advertisement

In June 2008 CNET Online Beijing signed cooperative agreements with Shanghai Borongdingsi Computer Technology Co., Ltd. (“Borongdingsi”) to conduct bank kiosk advertisement business. The business is based on a franchise agreement between Borongdingsi and Henan provincial branch of China Construction Bank which allows Borongdingsi or its designated party to conduct in-door advertisement business within the business outlets across Henan province. If proved successful, the business will be expanded across nation-wide branches. The franchise agreement was for a term of eight years starting August 2008. However, a risk lies in that China Banking Regulatory Commission may introduce polices that it is not allowed to broadcast TV advertisement in banking business outlets.

Revenue risk

According to the Group’s understanding of the internet industry, there is periodicity in this industry, especially periodicity for development of the internet. As we can see from with emergence and application of new technology, existing technology and mode may change.

In accordance to the related Advertisement Law of PRC, the Group, as a publisher of advertisement has the obligation to check relevant documents and verify the content of the advertisement. For commercial franchise business in China, the franchiser needs to file an application with the Ministry of Commence, PRC or its local branches. When a franchiser needs to issue an advertisement through the Group, the Group shall check the business license, the franchiser’s registration form, the trade mark certificate and other relevant documents to verify the content of the advertisement. The Internet information services regulations and anti unfair competition regulations have similar requirements on Internet advertisement publishers. However, even the Group checked all required documents according to the law and made judgments based on its best knowledge, the Group is still not able to fully detect the facts when its customers made dishonest statements about the contents of the advertisement published or going to be published by the Group and there is no mandatory requirement that the Group shall be responsible for the franchiser’s business activities. Under this circumstance, although the Group has fully fulfilled the obligations required by the law, the Group may still be censured by the public who do not have the full knowledge of the situation for involving in “falsely advertising to deceive or mislead consumers”. This will cause a negative impact on the Group’s reputation and may lead negative impact on the Group’s performance.

Technical and Safety risk

Prevention of stealing for core technology : The Group applied for protection of property rights to protect its technology to the extent possible.

Safety of the internet: The internet is always attacked by hackers. The Group takes many measures to prevent its internet system from being intruded.

Besides prevention in technology, investment in equipment is also necessary. A perfect safety system and backup system can prevent safety risk in operation. Of course the possibility of invasion of virus always exists. The Group pays great attention to prevent it.

Internet electronic business system: self-help terminal for internet business operation is convenient for customers. At the same time, lawbreakers may intrude into bank business systems or steal customer information. The Group takes measures to avoid technical leaks, so to promote safe operation of the system.

Credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially expose the Group to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivables and other receivable. The Group places its cash and cash equivalents, amounted to approximately US$ 2,548,000 and US$ 296,000 as at December 31, 2008 and 2007 with financial institutions that management believes is of high-credit ratings and quality.

The Group conducts credit evaluations of customers and generally does not require collateral or other security from its customers. The Group establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts primarily based upon the age of the receivables and factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers.

Foreign currency risk

A majority of the Group’s sales and expenses transactions and a significant portion of the Group’s assets and liabilities are denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”). RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC). Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Group in China must be processed through the PBOC or other China foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittance.

Long-term borrowing from director was non-interest bearing loan borrowed from director of the Group in relating to the long-term investment to the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary CNET Online Hong Kong.

13.	Restricted net assets

The Company’s ability to pay dividends is primarily dependent on the Company receiving distributions of funds from its PRC subsidiary and VIEs. Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by the Group’s PRC subsidiaries only out of their retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The results of operations reflected in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements of the Company’s PRC subsidiary and VIEs.

In accordance with the Regulations on Enterprises with Foreign Investment of China and their articles of association, a foreign invested enterprise established in the PRC is required to provide certain statutory reserves, namely general reserve fund, the enterprise expansion fund and staff welfare and bonus fund which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise is required to allocate at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit to the general reserve until such reserve has reached 50% of its respective registered capital based on the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. Appropriations to the enterprise expansion fund and staff welfare and bonus fund are at the discretion of the board of directors for all foreign invested enterprises. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. Rising King Century was established as a wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise and therefore are subject to the above mandated restrictions on distributable profits.

Additionally, in accordance with the Company Law of the PRC, a domestic enterprise is required to provide statutory common reserve at least 10% of its annual after-tax profit until such reserve has reached 50% of its respective registered capital based on the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A domestic enterprise is also required to provide for discretionary surplus reserve, at the discretion of the board of directors, from the profits determined in accordance with the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. CNET Online Beijing and 28.com were established as a domestic invested enterprise and therefore is subject to the above mandated restrictions on distributable profit

As a result of these PRC laws and regulations that require annual appropriations of 10% of after-tax income to be set aside prior to payment of dividends as general reserve fund, the Company’s PRC subsidiary and VIEs are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Company.

19. Subsequent event

(a)

The Group signed new contracts with the internet resources providers and TV advertisement providers in 2009, which engaged the Group contractual obligations of US$5,880,000 and US$243,000 in year 2009 and 2010 respectively.

(b)

In April 19 2009, some franchisors were reported by China Central Television (“CCTV”) to engage in fraudulent franchise business and the report also mentioned that the Company’s PRC VIE, 28.com was suspected of being an accomplice in such frauds by posting franchisors' advertisement on its internet advertisement platform.

As for this matter, per the PRC Advertising Law, the Group as the publisher of advertisement has the obligation to check relevant documents and verify the content of the advertisement. For commercial franchise business in China, the franchiser needs to file an application with the Ministry of Commerce PRC or its local branches through the system http://txjy.syggs.mofcom.gov.cn/. When a franchiser issues an advertisement through the Group, the Group shall check the business license, the franchiser’s registration form, the trade mark certificate and other relevant documents to verify the content of the advertisement. The internet information services regulations and anti unfair competition regulations have similar requirements for internet advertisement publishers. Based on the laws and regulations above, there is no mandatory requirement that the company shall be responsible for the franchiser’s business activities. But it is still possible that 28.com is required to assume civil and administrative responsibilities per Articles 37 and 38 of the PRC Advertising Law, subject to further investigation of competent authorities.

Under Article 37 of PRC Advertising Law in the case of fraudulent advertisement should advertisement publisher have been convicted guilty, the publisher’s proceeds would be confiscated and it would be subject to an additional fine within one to five times of the proceeds. Should there be a serious violation, the competent authorities shall order the advertisement publisher to shut down business; once the violation constitutes a crime, the publisher may even assume certain criminal responsibilities ..

Under Article 38 of PRC Advertising Law in the case of fraudulent advertisement that is misleading to the extent that the consumers' interests are infringed, the advertiser shall assume certain civil responsibilities. The advertisement publisher who has designed, made or published the advertisement, and is aware of, or is presumed to be aware of, the frauds in the advertisement, shall assume joint civil responsibilities with the advertiser. If the advertisement publisher could not provide the genuine name and address of the advertiser, it shall assume all of the civil responsibilities.

The Group and its majority owned subsidiaries are not aware of any significant potential liabilities regarding this matter.

Thus far 28.com has not concluded whether any laws were violated, which is subject to further investigation of competent authorities.

UNDERTAKINGS.

Undertaking Required by Item 512 of Regulation S-K.

(a) The undersigned registrant will:

(1) File, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

(i) include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement; and notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee”table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.

(2) For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.

(3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

(b) For determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

II-6

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the registrant or used or referred to by the registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the registrant to the purchaser.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(d) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

If a member of the Committee shall be eligible to receive an Award under the Plan, such Committee member shall have no authority hereunder with respect to his or her own Award.

Section 4.2 Powers. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the sole authority, in its discretion, to make all determinations under the Plan, including but not limited to determining which Employees, Directors or Consultants shall receive an Award, the time or times when an Award shall be made (the date of grant of an Award shall be the date on which the Award is awarded by the Committee), what type of Award shall be granted, the term of an Award, the date or dates on which an Award vests (including acceleration of vesting), the form of any payment to be made pursuant to an Award, the terms and conditions of an Award (including the forfeiture of the Award (and/or any financial gain) if the Holder of the Award violates any applicable restrictive covenant thereof), the Restrictions under a Restricted Stock Award and the number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under an Award, all as applicable.

Section 4.3 Additional Powers. The Committee shall have such additional powers as are delegated to it under the other provisions of the Plan. Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Committee is authorized to construe the Plan and the respective Award Agreements executed hereunder, to prescribe such rules and regulations relating to the Plan as it may deem advisable to carry out the intent of the Plan, and to determine the terms, restrictions and provisions of each Award, including such terms, restrictions and provisions as shall be requisite in the judgment of the Committee to cause designated Options to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for administering the Plan.

Subject to Article XV, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan shall not exceed five million (5,000,000) shares. Shares shall be deemed to have been issued under the Plan solely to the extent actually issued and delivered pursuant to an Award.

Solely to the extent provided in Section 17.8(b), the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be subject to Awards of Options under Article VII and/or Stock Appreciation Rights under Article XIV, in either or both cases granted to any one Employee during any calendar year, shall be one-hundred thousand (100,000) shares (subject to adjustment in the same manner as provided in Article XV with respect to shares of Common Stock subject to Awards then outstanding). The limitation set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied in a manner which shall permit compensation generated in connection with the exercise of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights to constitute “performance-based” compensation for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code, including, but not limited to, counting against such maximum number of shares, to the extent required under Section 162(m) of the Code, any shares subject to Options or Stock Appreciation Rights that are canceled or repriced.

(a) The Holder’s rights, if any, to exercise any then exercisable Non-Qualified Stock Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall terminate:

(1) If such termination is for a reason other than the Holder’s Total and Permanent Disability or death, ninety (90) days after the date of such termination of employment or after the date of such termination of Director status;

(2) If such termination is on account of the Holder’s Total and Permanent Disability, one (1) year after the date of such termination of employment or Director status; or

(3) If such termination is on account of the Holder’s death, one (1) year after the date of the Holder’s death.

Upon such applicable date the Holder (and such Holder’s estate, designated beneficiary or other legal representative) shall forfeit any rights or interests in or with respect to any such Non-Qualified Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights.

(b) The Holder’s rights, if any, to exercise any then exercisable Incentive Stock Option shall terminate:

(1) If such termination is for a reason other than the Holder’s Total and Permanent Disability or death, three (3) months after the date of such termination of employment;

(2) If such termination is on account of the Holder’s Total and Permanent Disability, one (1) year after the date of such termination of employment; or

(3) If such termination is on account of the Holder’s death, one (1) year after the date of the Holder’s death.

(c) If a Holder’s employment with, or status as a Director of, the Company or an Affiliate, as applicable, terminates for any reason prior to the actual or deemed satisfaction and/or lapse of the Restrictions, vesting requirements, terms and conditions applicable to a Restricted Stock Award and/or Restricted Stock Unit Award, such Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units shall immediately be canceled, and the Holder (and such Holder’s estate, designated beneficiary or other legal representative) shall forfeit any rights or interests in and with respect to any such Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units. The immediately preceding sentence to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine, prior to or within thirty (30) days after the date of such termination of employment or Director status, that all or a portion of any such Holder’s Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units shall not be so canceled and forfeited.

Section 6.3 Termination of Consultant Status. Except to the extent inconsistent with the terms of the applicable Award Agreement and/or the provisions of Section 6.4, the following terms and conditions shall apply with respect to the termination of a Holder’s status as a Consultant, for any reason:

(2) If such termination is on account of the Holder’s death, one (1) year after the date of the Holder’s death.

(b) If the status of a Holder as a Consultant terminates for any reason prior to the actual or deemed satisfaction and/or lapse of the Restrictions, vesting requirements, terms and conditions applicable to a Restricted Stock Award and/or Restricted Stock Unit Award, such Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units shall immediately be canceled, and the Holder (and such Holder’s estate, designated beneficiary or other legal representative) shall forfeit any rights or interests in and with respect to any such Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units. The immediately preceding sentence to the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine, prior to or within thirty (30) days after the date of such termination of such a Holder’s status as a Consultant, that all or a portion of any such Holder’s Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units shall not be so canceled and forfeited.

Section 6.4 Special Termination Rule. Except to the extent inconsistent with the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VI, if a Holder’s employment with, or status as a Director of, the Company or an Affiliate shall terminate, and if, within ninety (90) days of such termination, such Holder shall become a Consultant, such Holder’s rights with respect to any Award or portion thereof granted thereto prior to the date of such termination may be preserved, if and to the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as if such Holder had been a Consultant for the entire period during which such Award or portion thereof had been outstanding. Should the Committee effect such determination with respect to such Holder, for all purposes of the Plan, such Holder shall not be treated as if his or her employment or Director status had terminated until such time as his or her Consultant status shall terminate, in which case his or her Award, as it may have been reduced in connection with the Holder’s becoming a Consultant, shall be treated pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.3; provided, however, that any such Award which is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall, upon the Holder’s no longer being an Employee, automatically convert to a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Should a Holder’s status as a Consultant terminate, and if, within ninety (90) days of such termination, such Holder shall become an Employee or a Director, such Holder’s rights with respect to any Award or portion thereof granted thereto prior to the date of such termination may be preserved, if and to the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as if such Holder had been an Employee or a Director, as applicable, for the entire period during which such Award or portion thereof had been outstanding, and, should the Committee effect such determination with respect to such Holder, for all purposes of the Plan, such Holder shall not be treated as if his or her Consultant status had terminated until such time as his or her employment with the Company or an Affiliate, or his or her Director status, as applicable, shall terminate, in which case his or her Award shall be treated pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2.

Section 6.5 Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI or elsewhere in the Plan to the contrary, and unless a Holder’s Award Agreement specifically provides otherwise, should a Holder’s employment, Director status or engagement as a Consultant with or for the Company or an Affiliate be terminated by the Company or Affiliate for Cause, all of such Holder’s then outstanding Awards shall expire immediately and be forfeited in their entirety upon such termination.

ARTICLE VII

OPTIONS

Section 7.1 Option Period. The term of each Option shall be as specified in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that except as set forth in Section 7.3, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date of its grant.

Section 7.2 Limitations on Exercise of Option. An Option shall be exercisable in whole or in such installments and at such times as specified in the Option Agreement.

Section 7.3 Special Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the respective Incentive Stock Option is granted) of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an individual during any calendar year under all plans of the Company and any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation thereof (both as defined in Section 424 of the Code) which provide for the grant of Incentive Stock Options exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (or such other individual limit as may be in effect under the Code on the date of grant), the portion of such Incentive Stock Options that exceeds such threshold shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. The Committee shall determine, in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code, Treasury Regulations and other administrative pronouncements, which of a Holder’s Options, which were intended by the Committee to be Incentive Stock Options when granted to the Holder, will not constitute Incentive Stock Options because of such limitation, and shall notify the Holder of such determination as soon as practicable after such determination. No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to an Employee if, at the time the Option is granted, such Employee is a Ten Percent Stockholder, unless (i) at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted the Option price is at least one hundred ten percent (110 %) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the Option, and (ii) such Incentive Stock Option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant. No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted more than ten (10) years from the date on which the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders. The designation by the Committee of an Option as an Incentive Stock Option shall not guarantee the Holder that the Option will satisfy the applicable requirements for “incentive stock option” status under Section 422 of the Code.

Section 7.4 Option Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement in such form and containing such provisions not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan as the Committee from time to time shall approve, including, but not limited to, provisions intended to qualify an Option as an Incentive Stock Option. An Option Agreement may provide for the payment of the Option price, in whole or in part, by the delivery of a number of shares of Common Stock (plus cash if necessary) that have been owned by the Holder for at least six (6) months and having a Fair Market Value equal to such Option price, or such other forms or methods as the Committee may determine from time to time, in each case, subject to such rules and regulations as may be adopted by the Committee. Each Option Agreement shall, solely to the extent inconsistent with the provisions of Sections 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5, as applicable, specify the effect of termination of employment, Director status or Consultant status on the exercisability of the Option. Moreover, without limited the generality of the foregoing, an Option Agreement may provide for a “cashless exercise” of the Option by establishing procedures whereby the Holder, by a properly-executed written notice, directs (i) an immediate market sale or margin loan respecting all or a part of the shares of Common Stock to which he is entitled upon exercise pursuant to an extension of credit by the Company to the Holder of the Option price, (ii) the delivery of the shares of Common Stock from the Company directly to a brokerage firm and (iii) the delivery of the Option price from sale or margin loan proceeds from the brokerage firm directly to the Company. Each Option Agreement shall, solely to the extent inconsistent with the provisions of Sections 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5, as applicable, specify the effect of the termination of the Holder’s employment, Director status or Consultant status on the exercisability of the Option. An Option Agreement may also include provisions relating to (i) subject to the provisions hereof, accelerated vesting of Options, including but not limited to upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, (ii) tax matters (including provisions covering any applicable Employee wage withholding requirements and requiring additional “gross-up” payments to Holders to meet any excise taxes or other additional income tax liability imposed as a result of a payment made upon a Change of Control resulting from the operation of the Plan or of such Option Agreement) and (iii) any other matters not inconsistent with the terms and provisions of the Plan that the Committee shall in its sole discretion determine. The terms and conditions of the respective Option Agreements need not be identical.

Section 7.5 Option Price and Payment. The price at which a share of Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of an Option shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that such Option price (i) shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date such Option is granted, and (ii) shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Article XV. The Option or portion thereof may be exercised by delivery of an irrevocable notice of exercise to the Company. The Option price for the Option or portion thereof shall be paid in full in the manner prescribed by the Committee as set forth in the Plan and the applicable Option Agreement, which manner, with the consent of the Committee, may include the withholding of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable in connection with the exercise of the Option. Separate stock certificates shall be issued by the Company for those shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option and for those shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

Section 7.6 Stockholder Rights and Privileges. The Holder of an Option shall be entitled to all the privileges and rights of a stockholder of the Company solely with respect to such shares of Common Stock as have been purchased under the Option and for which certificates of stock have been registered in the Holder’s name.

Section 7.7 Options and Rights in Substitution for Stock Options Granted by Other Corporations. Options may be granted under the Plan from time to time in substitution for stock options held by individuals employed by entities who become Employees as a result of a merger or consolidation of the employing entity with the Company or any Affiliate, or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of the assets of the employing entity, or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of stock of the employing entity with the result that such employing entity becomes an Affiliate.

Section 7.8 Prohibition Against Repricing. Except to the extent (i) approved in advance by holders of a majority of the shares of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, or (ii) as a result of any Change of Control or any adjustment as provided in Article XV, the Committee shall not have the power or authority to reduce, whether through amendment or otherwise, the exercise price of any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation right, or to grant any new Award or make any payment of cash in substitution for or upon the cancellation of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights previously granted.

DISTRIBUTION EQUIVALENT RIGHTS

Section 13.1 Terms and Conditions. The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Distribution Equivalent Rights Award Agreement the terms and conditions, if any, including whether the Holder is to receive credits currently in cash, is to have such credits reinvested (at Fair Market Value determined as of the date of reinvestment) in additional shares of Common Stock or is to be entitled to choose among such alternatives. Such receipt shall be subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” under Section 409A of the Code and, if such Award becomes vested, the distribution of such cash or shares of Common Stock shall be made no later than by the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month next following the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which the Holder’s interest in the Award vests.

ARTICLE XIV

STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

Section 14.1 Terms and Conditions. The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Stock Appreciation Right Award Agreement the terms and conditions of the Stock Appreciation Right, including (i) the base value (the “Base Value”) for the Stock Appreciation Right, which for purposes of a Stock Appreciation which is not a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right, shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of a share of the Common Stock on the date of grant of the Stock Appreciation Right, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Appreciation Right, (iii) the period during which the Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised; provided, however, that no Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date of its grant, and (iv) any other special rules and/or requirements which the Committee imposes upon the Stock Appreciation Right. Upon the exercise of some or all of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Holder shall receive a payment from the Company, in cash or in the form of shares of Common Stock having an equivalent Fair Market Value or in a combination of both, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, equal to the product of:

(a) The excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of a share of the Common Stock on the date of exercise, over (ii) the Base Value, multiplied by;

(b) The number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised.

Section 14.2 Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights. If the Committee grants a Stock Appreciation Right which is intended to be a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right, the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right must be granted at the same time as the related Option, and the following special rules shall apply:

(a) The Base Value shall be equal to or greater than the per share exercise price under the related Option;

(b) The Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised for all or part of the shares of Common Stock which are subject to the related Option, but solely upon the surrender by the Holder of the Holder’s right to exercise the equivalent portion of the related Option (and when a share of Common Stock is purchased under the related Option, an equivalent portion of the related Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall be cancelled);

(d) The value of the payment with respect to the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be no more than one hundred percent (100%) of the difference between the per share exercise price under the related Option and the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject to the related Option at the time the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right is exercised; and

(e) The Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised solely when the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock subject to the related Option exceeds the per share the exercise price under the related Option.

ARTICLE XV

RECAPITALIZATION OR REORGANIZATION

Section 15.1 Adjustments to Common Stock. The shares with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan are shares of Common Stock as presently constituted; provided, however, that if, and whenever, prior to the expiration or distribution to the Holder of shares of Common Stock underlying an Award theretofore granted, the Company shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of shares of Common Stock or the payment of a stock dividend on Common Stock without receipt of consideration by the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which such Award may thereafter be exercised or satisfied, as applicable, (i) in the event of an increase in the number of outstanding shares, shall be proportionately increased, and the purchase price per share of the Common Stock shall be proportionately reduced, and (ii) in the event of a reduction in the number of outstanding shares, shall be proportionately reduced, and the purchase price per share of the Common Stock shall be proportionately increased. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Article XV, any adjustment made with respect to an Award (x) which is an Incentive Stock Option, shall comply with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code, and in no event shall any adjustment be made which would render any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan to be other than an “incentive stock option” for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, and (y) which is a Non-Qualified Stock Option, shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and in no event shall any adjustment be made which would render any Non-Qualified Stock Option granted under the Plan to become subject to Section 409A of the Code.

Section 15.2 Recapitalization. If the Company recapitalizes or otherwise changes its capital structure, thereafter upon any exercise or satisfaction, as applicable, of a previously granted Award, the Holder shall be entitled to receive (or entitled to purchase, if applicable) under such Award, in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock then covered by such Award, the number and class of shares of stock and securities to which the Holder would have been entitled pursuant to the terms of the recapitalization if, immediately prior to such recapitalization, the Holder had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Common Stock then covered by such Award.

Section 15.3 Other Events. In the event of changes to the outstanding Common Stock by reason of extraordinary cash dividend, reorganization, mergers, consolidations, combinations, split-ups, spin-offs, exchanges or other relevant changes in capitalization occurring after the date of the grant of any Award and not otherwise provided for under this Article XV, any outstanding Awards and any Award Agreements evidencing such Awards shall be adjusted by the Board in its discretion in such manner as the Board shall deem equitable or appropriate taking into consideration the applicable accounting and tax consequences, as to the number and price of shares of Common Stock or other consideration subject to such Awards. In the event of any adjustment pursuant to Sections 15.1, 15.2 or this Section 15.3, the aggregate number of shares available under the Plan pursuant to Section 5.1 (and the Code Section 162(m) limit set forth therein) may be appropriately adjusted by the Board, the determination of which shall be conclusive. In addition, the Committee may make provision for a cash payment to a Participant or a person who has an outstanding Award. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to any Award shall be rounded to the nearest whole number.

Section 15.4 Powers Not Affected. The existence of the Plan and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Board or of the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change of the Company’s capital structure or business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of debt or equity securities ahead of or affecting Common Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or any part of its assets or business or any other corporate act or proceeding.

Section 15.5 No Adjustment for Certain Awards. Except as hereinabove expressly provided, the issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale, upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, and in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect previously granted Awards, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Awards theretofore granted or the purchase price per share, if applicable.

ARTICLE XVI

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN

The Plan shall continue in effect, unless sooner terminated pursuant to this Article XVI, until the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date on which it is adopted by the Board (except as to Awards outstanding on that date). The Board in its discretion may terminate the Plan at any time with respect to any shares for which Awards have not theretofore been granted; provided, however, that the Plan’s termination shall not materially and adversely impair the rights of a Holder with respect to any Award theretofore granted without the consent of the Holder. The Board shall have the right to alter or amend the Plan or any part hereof from time to time; provided, however, that without the approval by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of shareholders at which a quorum representing a majority of the shares of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is present in person or by proxy, no amendment or modification of the Plan may (i) materially increase the benefits accruing to Holders, (ii) except as otherwise expressly provided in Article XV, materially increase the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan or the individual Award Agreements specified in Article V, (iii) materially modify the requirements for participation in the Plan, or (iv) amend, modify or suspend Section 7.8 (repricing prohibitions) or this Article XVI. In addition, no change in any Award theretofore granted may be made which would materially and adversely impair the rights of a Holder with respect to such Award without the consent of the Holder (unless such change is required in order to cause the benefits under the Plan to qualify as “performance-based” compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code) or to exempt the Plan or any Award from Section 409A of the Code.

ARTICLE XVII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 17.1 No Right to Award. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Company nor any action of the Board or the Committee shall be deemed to give an Employee, Director or Consultant any right to an Award except as may be evidenced by an Award Agreement duly executed on behalf of the Company, and then solely to the extent and on the terms and conditions expressly set forth therein.

Section 17.2 No Rights Conferred. Nothing contained in the Plan shall (i) confer upon any Employee any right with respect to continuation of employment with the Company or any Affiliate, (ii) interfere in any way with any right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the employment of an Employee at any time, (iii) confer upon any Director any right with respect to continuation of such Director’s membership on the Board, (iv) interfere in any way with any right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate a Director’s membership on the Board at any time, (v) confer upon any Consultant any right with respect to continuation of his or her consulting engagement with the Company or any Affiliate, or (vi) interfere in any way with any right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate a Consultant’s consulting engagement with the Company or an Affiliate at any time.

Section 17.3 Other Laws; No Fractional Shares; Withholding. The Company shall not be obligated by virtue of any provision of the Plan to recognize the exercise of any Award or to otherwise sell or issue shares of Common Stock in violation of any laws, rules or regulations, and any postponement of the exercise or settlement of any Award under this provision shall not extend the term of such Award. Neither the Company nor its directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability to a Holder with respect to any Award (or shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder) (i) that shall lapse because of such postponement, or (ii) for any failure to comply with the requirements of any applicable law, rules or regulations, including but not limited to any failure to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of this Code. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be delivered, nor shall any cash in lieu of fractional shares be paid. The Company shall have the right to deduct in cash (whether under this Plan or otherwise) in connection with all Awards any taxes required by law to be withheld and to require any payments required to enable it to satisfy its withholding obligations. In the case of any Award satisfied in the form of shares of Common Stock, no shares shall be issued unless and until arrangements satisfactory to the Company shall have been made to satisfy any tax withholding obligations applicable with respect to such Award. Subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may impose, the Company shall have the right to retain, or the Committee may, subject to such terms and conditions as it may establish from time to time, permit Holders to elect to tender, Common Stock (including Common Stock issuable in respect of an Award) to satisfy, in whole or in part, the amount required to be withheld.

Section 17.4 No Restriction on Corporate Action. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company or any Affiliate from taking any corporate action which is deemed by the Company or such Affiliate to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any Award made under the Plan. No Employee, Director, Consultant, beneficiary or other person shall have any claim against the Company or any Affiliate as a result of any such action.

Section 17.5 Restrictions on Transfer. No Award under the Plan or any Award Agreement and no rights or interests herein or therein, shall or may be assigned, transferred, sold, exchanged, encumbered, pledged or otherwise hypothecated or disposed of by a Holder except (i) by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or (ii) except for an Incentive Stock Option, by gift to any Family Member of the Holder. An Award may be exercisable during the lifetime of the Holder only by such Holder or by the Holder’s guardian or legal representative unless it has been transferred by gift to a Family Member of the Holder, in which case it shall be exercisable solely by such transferee. Notwithstanding any such transfer, the Holder shall continue to be subject to the withholding requirements provided for under Section 17.3 hereof.

Section 17.6 Beneficiary Designations. Each Holder may, from time to time, name a beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be contingent or successive beneficiaries) for purposes of receiving any amount which is payable in connection with an Award under the Plan upon or subsequent to the Holder’s death. Each such beneficiary designation shall serve to revoke all prior beneficiary designations, be in a form prescribed by the Company and be effective solely when filed by the Holder in writing with the Company during the Holder’s lifetime. In the absence of any such written beneficiary designation, for purposes of the Plan, a Holder’s beneficiary shall be the Holder’s estate.

Section 17.7 Rule 16b-3. It is intended that the Plan and any Award made to a person subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall meet all of the requirements of Rule 16b-3. If any provision of the Plan or of any such Award would disqualify the Plan or such Award under, or would otherwise not comply with the requirements of, Rule 16b-3, such provision or Award shall be construed or deemed to have been amended as necessary to conform to the requirements of Rule 16b-3.

Section 17.8 Section 162(m). (a) Solely to the extent provided in Section 17.8(b), it is intended that the Plan shall comply fully with and meet all the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code so that Awards hereunder which are made to Holders who are “covered employees” (as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code) shall constitute “performance-based” compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. Any Performance Goal(s) applicable to Qualified Performance-Based Awards shall be objective, shall be established not later than ninety (90) days after the beginning of any applicable Performance Period (or at such other date as may be required or permitted for “performance-based” compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code) and shall otherwise meet the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code, including the requirement that the outcome of the Performance Goal or Goals be substantially uncertain (as defined in the regulations under Section 162(m) of the Code) at the time established. The Performance Criteria to be utilized under the Plan to establish Performance Goals shall consist of objective tests based on one or more of the following: earnings or earnings per share, cash flow or cash flow per share, operating cash flow or operating cash flow per share revenue growth, product revenue growth, financial return ratios (such as return on equity, return on investment and/or return on assets), share price performance, stockholder return, equity and/or value, operating income, operating margins, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, earnings, pre- or post-tax income, economic value added (or an equivalent metric), profit returns and margins, credit quality, sales growth, market share, working capital levels, comparisons with various stock market indices, year-end cash, debt reduction, assets under management, operating efficiencies, strategic partnerships or transactions (including co-development, co-marketing, profit sharing, joint venture or other similar arrangements), and/or financing and other capital raising transaction. Performance criteria may be established on a Company-wide basis or with respect to one or more Company business units or divisions or subsidiaries; and either in absolute terms, relative to the performance of one or more similarly situated companies, or relative to the performance of an index covering a peer group of companies. When establishing Performance Goals for the applicable Performance Period, the Committee may exclude any or all “extraordinary items” as determined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles including, without limitation, the charges or costs associated with restructurings of the Company, discontinued operations, other unusual or non-recurring items, and the cumulative effects of accounting changes, and as identified in the Company’s financial statements, notes to the Company’s financial statements or management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the Company’s most recent annual report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act. Holders who are “covered employees” (as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code) shall be eligible to receive payment under a Qualified Performance-Based Award which is subject to achievement of a Performance Goal or Goals only if the applicable Performance Goal or Goals are achieved within the applicable Performance Period, as determined by the Committee. If any provision of the Plan would disqualify the Plan or would not otherwise permit the Plan to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code as so intended, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the requirements or provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Committee may postpone the exercising of Awards, the issuance or delivery of Common Stock under any Award or any action permitted under the Plan to prevent the Company or any subsidiary from being denied a federal income tax deduction with respect to any Award other than an Incentive Stock Option, provided that such deferral satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.162-27(e)(4)(i), the maximum amount of compensation that may be paid to any Employee under the Plan for a calendar year shall be one million Dollars ($1,000,000).

(b) The provisions of the Plan which are required by or make specific reference to Section 162(m) of the Code or any regulations thereunder, or any successor section of the Code or regulations thereunder shall apply only where the Company or an affiliate would otherwise not be entitled to a United States federal income tax deduction for the payment of all remuneration to its employees solely on account of the limitation contained in Section 162(m)(1) of the Code.

Section 17.9 Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Committee shall have no authority to issue an Award under the Plan with terms and/or conditions which would cause such Award to constitute non-qualified “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code. Accordingly, by way of example but not limitation, no Option shall be granted under the Plan with a per share Option exercise price which is less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant of the Option. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Award Agreement shall provide for any deferral feature with respect to an Award which constitutes a deferral of compensation under Section 409A of the Code. The Plan and all Award Agreements are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (so as to be exempt therefrom) and shall be so interpreted and construed.

Section 17.10 Indemnification. Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee or of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred thereby in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which such person may be made a party or may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid thereby in settlement thereof, with the Company’s approval, or paid thereby in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding against such person; provided, however, that such person shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive and shall be independent of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or By-laws, by contract, as a matter of law, or otherwise.

Section 17.11 Other Plans. No Award, payment or amount received hereunder shall be taken into account in computing an Employee’s salary or compensation for the purposes of determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, life insurance or other benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate, unless such other plan specifically provides for the inclusion of such Award, payment or amount received. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company to establish other plans or to pay compensation to its employees, in cash or property, in a manner which is not expressly authorized under the Plan.

Section 17.12 Limits of Liability. Any liability of the Company with respect to an Award shall be based solely upon the contractual obligations created under the Plan and the Award Agreement. None of the Company, any member of the Board nor any member of the Committee shall have any liability to any party for any action taken or not taken, in good faith, in connection with or under the Plan.

Section 17.13 Governing Law. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Plan shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

Section 17.14 Severability of Provisions. If any provision of the Plan is held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included in the Plan.

Section 17.15 No Funding. The Plan shall be unfunded. The Company shall not be required to establish any special or separate fund or to make any other segregation of funds or assets to ensure the payment of any Award.

Section 17.16 Headings. Headings used throughout the Plan are for convenience only and shall not be given legal significance.

Section 17.17 Terms of Award Agreements.
