EXPLANATORY NOTES
This Amendment No. 1 to the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008 (the “2008 Annual Report”), is being filed because the Registrant’s prior auditor, Clancy and Co., P.L.L.C. (“Clancy”), had its registration with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board revoked on March 31, 2009. As a result, the Registrant may not include Clancy’s audit report in its 2008 Annual Report. The Registrant is amending the 2008 Annual Report to replace Clancy’s audit report with an audit report from the Registrant’s current auditor, Lynda R. Keeton CPA, LLC (“Keeton”). Keeton has re-audited all periods presented in the financial statements contained in the 2008 Annual Report. There was no material changes in the financial statements (including the notes thereto) contained in the 2008 Annual Report as a result of the re-audit by Keeton.
Except as so amended by this Amendment No. 1, the Registrant’s 2008 Annual Report remains as originally filed on March 13, 2009.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors of
China Elite Information Co., Ltd.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of China Elite Information Co., Ltd. as of November 30, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the two years ended November 30, 2008 and 2007, and the period from inception (December 19, 1997) to November 30, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of China Elite Information Co., Ltd. as of November 30, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years ended November 30, 2008 and 2007, and the period from inception (December 19, 1997) to November 30, 2008, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has limited operations and continued net losses. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1. Business Formation and Continuance of Operations
Business Formation
China Elite Information Co., Ltd. (formerly known as “Relocate411.com, Inc.” and “Stateside Fundings, Inc.”) was originally organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on December 19, 1997.
On January 26, 2000, the stockholders of Relocate411.com, Inc., a New York corporation incorporated on August 24, 1999 (“Relocate”), completed a merger and stock exchange with Stateside Fundings, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Stateside”), resulting in a recapitalization of Stateside, the acquirer. Relocate merged into Stateside and Stateside acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Relocate. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of Relocate common stock converted into one hundred thousand shares of Stateside common stock. Contemporaneously with the merger, Stateside issued 5,175,000 shares of its common stock pursuant to a private placement offering and received net proceeds of $1,354,250. The net proceeds received were after a payment of $150,000 to redeem 4,100,000 shares of common stock from the founder of Stateside. As part of the merger and stock exchange, Stateside issued 6,600,000 shares of common stock to the shareholders of Relocate in exchange for receiving all of the shares (66 shares) held by the shareholders of Relocate and Relocate became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. For accounting purposes, the financial statements became that of Stateside, the entity that survived the merger. On January 27, 2000, Stateside filed a certificate of amendment changing the Company’s name to “Relocate411.com, Inc.”
On May 21, 2004, Jandah Management Limited (“Jandah”), Glory Way Holdings, Limited (“GWH”) and Good Business Technology Limited (“GBT”), each a corporation organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, entered into privately negotiated transactions with the stockholders of Relocate to purchase an aggregate of 10,976,000 shares of common stock of the Company, representing 98% of the issued and outstanding shares, for an aggregate purchase price of $350,000. In connection with, and as a condition to the closing of these stock purchase transactions, Darrell Lerner, the Company’s former Director and President, resigned as the sole officer of the Company effective as of May 21, 2004, and pursuant to the Company's Bylaws and applicable SEC regulations, Mr. Lerner appointed Li Kin Shing (“Mr. Li”), the sole shareholder of Jandah, as the President of the Company and, effective as of June 4, 2004, as sole director of the board.
Jandah acquired 9,276,000 shares of common stock from the three largest shareholders of the Company, Darrell Lerner, Byron Lerner and James Tubbs, for an aggregate purchase price of $307,500. Darrell Lerner retained 224,000 shares of common stock. As a condition to closing, the Company and Mr. Darrell Lerner entered into a six-month consulting agreement pursuant to which Mr. Darrell Lerner assisted the Company with various transition issues and provided other business consulting services. Under the consulting agreement, Mr. Darrell Lerner was paid an aggregate consulting fee of $150,000. Mr. Li is considered to be the indirect beneficial owner of the shares held by Jandah Management Limited, since he is the sole shareholder of Jandah Management Limited and as such, possesses sole investment and voting power over the Company's shares held by it.

On July 21, 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the change of the jurisdiction under which the Company was incorporated from the State of Delaware to the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) and to reincorporate as a British Virgin Islands International Business Company, pursuant to Section 390 of the Delaware General Corporations Law and the applicable laws of the BVI. In connection with this reincorporation, the Company changed its name from “Relocate 411.com, Inc.” to “China Elite Information Co., Ltd.” As a result of the reincorporation, the Company adopted new corporate governance documents consisting of a Memorandum of Association, Articles of Incorporation and Articles of Continuation. Accordingly, the par value of the Company’s preferred stock and common stock increased from $0.0001 to $0.01. All shares and per share information have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the change in par value. All shares (i) have one vote each, (ii) are subject to redemption, purchase or acquisition by the Company for fair value, and (iii) carry the right to participate equally in the assets of the Company, including any dividends, and distributions of the Company on a winding up. The rights attached to any class or series of shares may not be varied without the consent in writing of the holders of not less than three-fourths of the issued shares of that class or series and of the holders of not less than three-fourths of the issued shares of any other class or series of shares which may be affected by such variation.
Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated any revenue and requires additional funds to maintain its operations. The Company’s cash requirements for working capital have been satisfied through loans from its majority shareholder and the Company expects to obtain additional capital through shareholder loans and / or a debt or equity financing to continue its operations. There is no assurance the Company will be successful in raising the needed additional capital or that such additional funds will be available for the Company on acceptable terms, if at all. The continued existence of the Company is dependent upon its ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis and to succeed in its future operations. The Company’s President, who is also the majority shareholder, has verbally agreed to fund its operations for the next twelve months, based on the Company’s current level of expenditures, as necessary. However, the Company’s need for capital may change dramatically if it acquires a suitable business opportunity during that period.
Management plans to identify and pursue profitable business opportunities through mergers and acquisitions, so as to diversify the business risks and maximize the returns to stockholders. The Company has not yet entered into any agreement, nor does it have any commitment to enter into or become engaged in any transaction as of the date of issuance of these financial statements.
Management believes that actions presently taken to revise the Company's operating and financial requirements provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to achieve these objectives cannot be determined at this time. If the Company is unsuccessful in its endeavors, it may be forced to cease operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
Development Stage Company
The Company is considered a development stage company which is defined as such if it is devoting substantially all of its efforts to establishing a new business and its planned principal operations either (i) have not commenced or (ii) have commenced, but have not produced any significant revenues.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash or cash equivalents for any of the periods presented.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations. For the years ended November 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not have any property and equipment or related depreciation expenses.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes and related interpretations and guidance including FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). The liability method, which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company’s management determines if a valuation allowance is necessary to reduce any tax benefits when the available benefits are more likely than not to expire before they can be used. The Company is not obligated for U.S. federal income taxes because it is a British Virgin Islands company, which is not subject to U.S. Federal income tax. The British Virgin Islands also does not have a corporate income tax. If the Company merges with a U.S. based company, historical net operating losses may not be available for future net income offset.

Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed as net loss divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Diluted EPS includes the effect from potential dilutive securities and is equal to basic loss per share for all periods presented because there are no potential dilutive securities. All per share and per share information is adjusted retroactively to reflect stock splits and changes in par value.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments such as amounts due to shareholders, accounts payable and accrued expenses, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Fair value of financial instruments is made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments. As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair values.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, which requires the Company to record as an expense in its financial statements the fair value of all stock-based compensation awards. There were no outstanding awards during the years ended November 30, 2008 and 2007.
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company adopted SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which requires companies to recognize all derivatives contracts as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and to measure them at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change. The Company has not entered into derivative contracts either to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes.
Related Party Transactions
A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.
