2011 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

PROXY STATEMENT

Why am I Receiving These Materials?

These proxy materials are being sent to the holders of shares of the voting stock of Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited, a Colorado corporation, in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our Board of Directors (the “Board”) for use at the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held at 10:30 A.M.. local time, on December 15, 2011 at No. 30 Guanghau Street, Xiaojingyu Xiang, Wan Bailin District, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province, China P.C. 030024. The proxy materials relating to the Annual Meeting are first being mailed to shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting on or about November 8, 2011. A copy of our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011 has been mailed concurrently with this Proxy Statement. This Proxy Statement and our 2011 Annual Report are available at: www.longweipetroleum.com.

Who is Entitled to Vote?

Longwei’s Board has fixed the close of business on October 26, 2011 as the Record Date for a determination of shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof. On the Record Date, there were 100,766,966 shares of common stock outstanding and 914,643 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding. Each share of common stock represents one vote that may be voted on each proposal that may come before the Annual Meeting. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote.

What is the Difference Between Holding Shares as a Record Holder and as a Beneficial Owner (Holding Shares in Street Name)?

If your shares are registered in your name with our transfer agent, Corporate Stock Transfer, you are the “record holder” of those shares. If you are a record holder, these proxy materials have been provided directly to you by Longwei.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account, a bank or other holder of record, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of those shares held in “street name.” If your shares are held in street name, these proxy materials have been forwarded to you by that organization. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to instruct this organization on how to vote your shares.

Who May Attend the Meeting?

Record holders and beneficial owners may attend the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in street name, you will need to bring a copy of a brokerage statement or other documentation reflecting your stock ownership as of the record date.

How Do I Vote?

Shareholders of Record

For your convenience, our record holders have three methods of voting:

	1.		Vote by mail . Mark, date, sign and mail promptly the enclosed proxy card (a postage-paid envelope is provided for mailing in the United States).

	2.		Vote in person . Attend and vote at the Annual Meeting.

	3.		Vote by Internet. The website address for Internet voting is https://secure.corporatestock.com/vote.php.

Beneficial Owners of Shares Held in Street Name

For your convenience, our beneficial owners have four methods of voting:

	1.		Vote by Internet . The website address for Internet voting is on your vote instruction form.

	2.		Vote by telephone . The toll-free number for telephone voting is on your vote instruction form.

	3.		Vote by mail . Mark, date, sign and mail promptly your vote instruction form (a postage-paid envelope is provided for mailing in the United States).

	4.		Vote in person . Obtain a valid legal proxy from the organization that holds your shares and attend and vote at the Annual Meeting.

If you vote by Internet, please DO NOT mail your proxy card.

All shares entitled to vote and represented by a properly completed and executed proxy received before the meeting and not revoked will be voted at the meeting as you instruct in a proxy delivered before the meeting. If you do not indicate how your shares should be voted on a matter, the shares represented by your properly completed and executed proxy will be voted as the Board recommends on each of the enumerated proposals and with regard to any other matters that may be properly presented at the meeting and all matters incident to the conduct of the meeting. If you are a registered stockholder and attend the meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card in person. “Street name” stockholders who wish to vote at the meeting will need to obtain a proxy form from the institution that holds their shares. All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of elections appointed for the meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes.

Is My Vote Confidential?

Yes, your vote is confidential. Only the following persons have access to your vote: the inspector of elections, individuals who help with processing and counting your votes, and persons who need access for legal reasons. Occasionally, shareholders provide written comments on their proxy cards, which may be forwarded to the Company’s management and the Board of Directors.

What Constitutes a Quorum?

To carry on business at the Annual Meeting, we must have a quorum. A quorum is present when one-third of the shares entitled to vote, as of the Record Date, are represented in person or by proxy. Thus, 33,588,989 shares must be represented in person or by proxy to have a quorum. Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote in person at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. Shares owned by Longwei are not considered outstanding or considered to be present at the Annual Meeting. If there is not a quorum at the Annual Meeting, our shareholders may adjourn the meeting.

What is a Broker Non-Vote?

If your shares are held in street name, you must instruct the organization who holds your shares how to vote your shares. If you do not provide voting instructions, your shares will not be voted on any non-routine proposal. This vote is called a “broker non-vote.” If you sign your proxy card but do not provide instructions on how your broker should vote, your broker will vote your shares as recommended by our Board. Broker non-votes are not included in the tabulation of the voting results of any of the proposals and, therefore, do not effect these proposals.

Brokers cannot use discretionary authority to vote shares on the election of directors if they have not received instructions from their clients. Please submit your vote instruction form so your vote is counted.

Which Proposals are Considered “Routine” or “Non-Routine”?

With the exception of Proposal 2, the ratification of the appointment of Child Van Wagoner & Bradshaw, PLLC as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending June 30, 2012, all of the proposals to be voted upon at our 2011 Annual Meeting are considered non-routine.

What is an Abstention?

An abstention is a shareholders affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Abstentions are not included in the tabulation of the voting results of any of the proposals and, therefore, do not effect these proposals.

How Many Votes are Needed for Each Proposal to Pass?


		Broker
		Discretionary
Proposal	Vote Required	Vote Allowed
Election of five (5) members to our Board of Directors	Plurality of the votes cast (the five directors receiving the most “For” votes)	No

Ratification of the Appointment of Child Van Wagoner & Bradshaw, PLLC as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for our Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2012	A majority of the votes cast	Yes

What Are the Voting Procedures?

In voting by proxy with regard to the election of directors, you may vote in favor of all nominees, withhold your votes as to all nominees, or withhold your votes as to specific nominees. With regard to other proposals, you may vote in favor of or against the proposal, or you may abstain from voting on the proposal. You should specify your respective choices on the accompanying proxy card or your vote instruction form.

Is My Proxy Revocable?

You may revoke your proxy and reclaim your right to vote at any time before it is voted by giving written notice to the Secretary of Longwei, by delivering a properly completed, later-dated proxy card or vote instruction form or by voting in person at the Annual Meeting. All written notices of revocation and other communications with respect to revocations of proxies should be addressed to: Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited, No. 30 Guanghau Street, Xiaojingyu Xiang, Wan Bailin District, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province, China 030024, Attention: Secretary, or by facsimile at 727-231-0944.

Who is Paying for the Expenses Involved in Preparing and Mailing this Proxy Statement?

All of the expenses involved in preparing, assembling and mailing these proxy materials and all costs of soliciting proxies will be paid by Longwei. In addition to the solicitation by mail, proxies may be solicited by our officers and other employees by telephone or in person. Such persons will receive no compensation for their services other than their regular salaries. Arrangements will also be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of the shares held of record by such persons, and we may reimburse such persons for reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by them in so doing.

What is “Householding” and How Does it Affect Me?

Record holders who have the same address and last name will receive only one copy of their proxy materials, unless we are notified that one or more of these record holders wishes to continue receiving individual copies. This procedure will reduce our printing costs and postage fees. Shareholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate proxy cards.

If you are eligible for householding, but you and other record holders with whom you share an address, receive multiple copies of these proxy materials, or if you hold Longwei stock in more than one account, and in either case you wish to receive only a single copy of each of these documents for your household, please contact: Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited, No. 30 Guanghau Street, Xiaojingyu Xiang, Wan Bailin District, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province, China 030024, Attention: Secretary.

If you participate in householding and wish to receive a separate copy of these proxy materials, or if you do not wish to continue to participate in householding and prefer to receive separate copies of these documents in the future, please contact Longwei as indicated above.

Beneficial owners can request information about householding from their brokers, banks or other holders of record.

Do I Have Dissenters’ Rights of Appraisal?

Longwei shareholders do not have appraisal rights under Colorado law or under the governing documents of Longwei with respect to the matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting.

Can a Shareholder Present a Proposal To Be Considered At the 2012 Annual Meeting?

Under the rules of the SEC, if a shareholder wants us to include a proposal for inclusion in our proxy materials for the 2012 Annual Meeting, your proposal must be submitted in writing by June 30, 2012 to Longwei Petroleum Investment Holding Limited, No. 30 Guanghau Street, Xiaojingyu Xiang, Wan Bailin District, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province, China 030024, Attention: Secretary (pursuant to Rule 14a-8(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). If you wish to submit a proposal that is not to be included in our proxy materials or wish to nominate a director, you must do so no later than the close of business on June 30, 2012 (pursuant to Rule 14a-5(e)(2) of the Exchange Act). You are also advised to review our Bylaws, which contain additional requirements about director nominations.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among our directors (or nominee) and executive officers. There is no arrangement or understanding between or among our executive officers and directors pursuant to which any director or officer was or is to be selected as a director or officer.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain potential conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships between the Company’s officers and directors and the Company.

From time to time, one or more of the Company’s affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that the Company own and operate. These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with the Company’s business with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of us and other businesses with which the Company’s affiliates are associated. The Company’s affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither the Company nor the Company’s shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.

From time to time, one or more of the Company’s affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that the Company owns and operates. These persons may continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with the Company’s business with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers.

The Company’s affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither the Company nor the Company’s shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.

With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, the Company has adopted policies and procedures which require that: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of the Company’s disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to us at the time it is authorized or approved by the Company’s directors.

The Company’s policies and procedures regarding transactions involving potential conflicts of interest are not in writing. The Company understands that it will be difficult to enforce the Company’s policies and procedures and will rely and trust the Company’s officers and directors to follow the Company’s policies and procedures. The Company will implement the Company’s policies and procedures by requiring the officer or director who is not in compliance with the Company’s policies and procedures to remove himself and the other officers and directors will decide how to implement the policies and procedures, accordingly.

Involvement in Certain legal Proceedings

To our knowledge, during the past ten years, none of our directors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has been:

	•		convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);

	•		subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction or any Federal or State authority, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities;

	•		found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.

	•		the subject of, or a party to, any Federal or State judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of (a) any Federal or State securities or commodities law or regulation; (b) any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or (c) any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

	•		the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.

There are no material proceedings to which any director of the Company is a party adverse to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires that our officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and with any exchange on which the Company’s securities are traded. Officers, directors and persons owning more than ten percent of such securities are required by Commission regulation to file with the Commission and furnish the Company with copies of all reports required under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act. To our knowledge, based solely upon our review of the copies of such reports furnished to us, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with, except that Form 4s for Michael Toups, Gerald DeCiccio and Douglas Cole were not filed timely.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, we have traditionally determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to partially combine these roles. Due to the small size of the Company, we believe it is currently most effective to have the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions partially combined.

Our Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes on behalf of our Board of Directors. The Audit Committee receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our Company’s assessment of risks. In addition, the Audit Committee reports regularly to the full Board of Directors, which also considers our risk profile. The Audit Committee and the full Board of Directors focus on the most significant risks facing our Company and our Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensure that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

Our Board of Directors is responsible to approve all related party transactions. We have not adopted written policies and procedures specifically for related person transactions.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

At no time during the last two fiscal years has any executive officer, director or any member of these individuals’ immediate families, any corporation or organization with whom any of these individuals is an affiliate or any trust or estate in which any of these individuals serves as a trustee or in a similar capacity or has a substantial beneficial interest been indebted to the Company or was involved in any transaction in which the amount exceeded $120,000 and such person had a direct or indirect material interest.

The Company will present all possible transactions between the Company and the Company’s officers, directors or 5% shareholders, and the Company’s affiliates to the Board of Directors for their consideration and approval. Any such transaction will require approval by a majority of the disinterested directors and such transactions will be on terms no less favorable than those available to disinterested third parties.

Board Responsibilities and Structure

The Board oversees, counsels, and directs management in the long-term interest of Longwei and its shareholders. The Board’s responsibilities include establishing broad corporate policies and reviewing the overall performance of Longwei. The Board is not, however, involved in the operating details on a day-to-day basis.

Director Independence

Our Board of Directors has determined that currently Douglas Cole, Gerald DeCiccio and Xiaoping Xue qualify as “independent” as the term is used in Item 407 of Regulation S-K as promulgated by the SEC and in the listing standards of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Stock Market and of Section 803A of the NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide. Mr. DeCiccio is not standing for re-election to the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting. Dora Dong, who is nominated to be elected to our Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting, when elected, would qualify as “independent” as the term is used in Item 407 of Regulation S-K as promulgated by the SEC and in the listing standards of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Stock Market and of Section 803A of the NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

The Company’s directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Colorado Statutes and the Company’s Bylaws. The Company has agreed to indemnify each of the Company’s directors and certain officers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to the Company’s directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the Company’s payment of expenses incurred or paid by the Company’s director, officer or controlling person 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 Company will, unless in the opinion of the Company’s 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.

The Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is asserted by one of the Company’s directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of the Company’s legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy to a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The Company will then be governed by the court’s decision.

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting will be required to elect five directors to our Board under Proposal 1. This means that the five persons who receive the most votes are elected. For purposes of the election of directors, the withholding of authority by a shareholder as to the election of directors thus has no effect on the results of the election.

Recommendation

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “ FOR ” THE ELECTION OF THE NOMINATED SLATE OF DIRECTORS.

Corporate Governance

Board Committees and Charters

The Board and its Committees meet throughout the year and act by written consent from time to time as appropriate. The Board has formed Audit, Compensation and Nominating Committees. Committees regularly report on their activities and actions to the Board. The Board appoints members to its: Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating Committee. The Audit Committee, the Nominating Committee and the Compensation Committee each have a written charter approved by the Board. These charters are available on our website at www.longweipetroleum.com.

The following table identifies the independent and non-independent current Board and Committee members immediately prior to the Annual Meeting. Mr. DeCiccio is not standing for re-election to the Company’s Board of Directors.

Meetings of the Board of Directors and Committees

Our board of directors held no formal meetings during the most recently completed fiscal year. All proceedings of the Board of Directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the corporate laws of the State of Colorado and our bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.

Policy Regarding Attendance at Annual Meetings of Stockholders

Longwei does not have a policy with regard to board members’ attendance at annual meetings.

Audit Committee

We established an audit committee effective March 22, 2010 along with a financial expert on our audit committee. These members are independent directors. Our audit committee consists of Douglas Cole, Gerald DeCiccio and Xiaoping Xue. Gerald DeCiccio qualifies as "audit committee financial expert," as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written audit committee charter.

The Audit Committee assists our board in monitoring:

●	our accounting, auditing, and financial reporting processes;

●	the integrity of our financial statements;

●	internal controls and procedures designed to promote our compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations; and

●	the appointment and evaluation of the qualifications and independence of our independent auditors.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management. The audit committee has (i) discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 114, (ii) reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountant required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the audit committee concerning independence and (iii) discussed with the independent accountant the independent accountant’s independence. Based on the foregoing, the audit committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be including in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.

Mr. DeCiccio is not standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting. It is anticipated that Dora Dong, a director- nominee at the Annual Meeting will, once appointed as an independent member of the Board of Directors, be appointed to fill Mr. DeCiccio’s position as an independent member of the Board’s Audit Committee.

Compensation Committee

We established a compensation committee effective March 22, 2010. These members are independent directors. Our nominating committee consists of Douglas Cole, Gerald DeCiccio and Xiaoping Xue. The compensation committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for (i) determining the general compensation policies, (ii) establishing compensation plans, (iii) determining senior management compensation and (iv) administering our stock option plans. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written compensation committee charter. Mr. DeCiccio is not standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting. It is anticipated that Dora Dong, a director- nominee at the Annual Meeting will, once appointed as an independent member of the Board of Directors, be appointed to fill Mr. DeCiccio’s position as an independent member of the Board’s Compensation Committee.

Nominating Committee

We established a nominating committee effective March 22, 2010. These members are independent directors. Our nominating committee consists of Douglas Cole, Gerald DeCiccio and Xiaoping Xue. The purpose of the nominating committee of the Board of Directors is to recommend to the Board changes in Board composition as well as make recommendations with respect to size and composition of the Board, recommend to the Board on the minimum qualifications and standards for director nominees and review qualifications of potential candidates for the Board. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written nominating committee charter. Mr. DeCiccio is not standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting. It is anticipated that Dora Dong, a director- nominee at the Annual Meeting will, once appointed as an independent member of the Board of Directors, be appointed to fill Mr. DeCiccio’s position as an independent member of the Board’s Nominating Committee.

Director Nominations

Part of our Nominating Committee’s duties is to screen and nominate candidates considered for election to our Board of Directors. In this capacity, it concerns itself with the composition of the Board of Directors with respect to depth of experience, balance of professional interests, required expertise and other factors. The Nominating Committee evaluates prospective nominees identified on its own initiative or referred to it by other Board members, management, stockholders or external sources and all self-nominated candidates. The Nominating Committee uses the same criteria for evaluating candidates nominated by stockholders and self-nominated candidates as it does for those proposed by other Board members, management and search companies.

The Nominating Committee values diversity as a factor in selecting individuals nominated to serve on the Board of Directors. Although the Board of Directors prefers a mix of backgrounds and experience among its members, it does not follow any ratio or formula to determine the appropriate mix, nor is there any specific policy on diversity. The Nominating Committee uses its judgment to identify nominees whose backgrounds, attributes and experiences, taken as a whole, will contribute to a high standard of service for the Board of the Directors.

Code of Ethics

On March 22, 2010, we adopted a Code of Ethics for our principal executive officers and senior management. The Code is designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; full and fair disclosure in reports and documents submitted to the SEC; compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations; and the prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to appropriate persons by our senior management. A copy of the Code of Ethics, may be obtained, free of charge, by submitting a written request to the Company.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CD&A)

The following discussion and analysis of compensation arrangements of our named executive officers for 2011 should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures set forth herein.

We believe our success depends on the continued contributions of our named executive officers. Personal relationships are very important in our industry. Our named executive officers are primarily responsible for many of our critical business development relationships. The maintenance of these relationships is critical to ensuring our future success. Therefore, it is important to our success that we retain the services of these individuals and prevent them from competing with us should their employment with us terminate.

General Philosophy

Our overall compensation philosophy is to provide an executive compensation package that enables us to attract, retain and motivate executive officers to achieve our short-term and long-term business goals. The goals of our compensation program are to align remuneration with business objectives and performance, and to enable us to retain and competitively reward executive officers who contribute to the long-term success of the Company. We attempt to pay our executive officers competitively in order that we will be able to retain the most capable people in the industry. In making executive compensation and other employment compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee considers achievement of certain criteria, some of which relate to our performance and others of which relate to the performance of the individual employee. Awards to executive officers are based on achievement of Company and individual performance criteria.

The Compensation Committee will evaluate our compensation policies on an ongoing basis to determine whether they enable us to attract, retain and motivate key personnel. To meet these objectives, the Compensation Committee may from time to time increase salaries, award additional stock grants or provide other short and long-term incentive compensation to executive officers and other employees.

Compensation Program & Forms of Compensation

We provide our executive officers with a compensation package consisting of base salary and participation in benefit plans generally available to other employees. In setting total compensation, the Compensation Committee considers individual and company performance, as well as market information regarding compensation paid by other companies in our industry.

Base Salary. Salaries for our executive officers are initially set based on negotiation with individual executive officers at the time of recruitment and with reference to salaries for comparable positions in the industry for individuals of similar education and background to the executive officers being recruited. We also consider the individual’s experience, reputation in his or her industry and expected contributions to the Company. Base salary is continuously evaluated by competitive pay and individual job performance. Base salaries for executives are reviewed annually or more frequently should there be significant changes in responsibilities. In each case, we take into account the results achieved by the executive, his or her future potential, scope of responsibilities and experience, and competitive salary practices. In some circumstances our executive officers have elected to take less than market salaries. These salaries may be increased in the future to market conditions with a competitive base salary that is in line with his or her role and responsibilities when compared to peer companies of comparable size in similar locations.

Based on our compensation philosophy, a substantial portion of our compensation rewards long-term performance of the Company and promotes executive retention. This may be delivered to our executives through restricted stock grants.

Executive Equity Ownership

We encourage our executives to hold a significant equity interest in our Company. However, we do not have specific share retention and ownership guidelines for our executives.

Performance-Based Compensation and Financial Restatement

We have not considered or implemented a policy regarding retroactive adjustments to any cash or equity-based incentive compensation paid to our executives and other employees where such payments were predicated upon the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently the subject of a financial restatement.

Compensation of Chief Executive Officer

Mr. Cai received a base salary of $7,333 for the year ended June 30, 2011.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

In the review and establishment of our compensation programs, we consider the anticipated accounting and tax implications to us and our executives.

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code imposes a limit on the amount of compensation that we may deduct in any one year with respect to our chief executive officer and each of our next four most highly compensated executive officers, unless certain specific and detailed criteria are satisfied. Performance-based compensation, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code, is fully deductible if the programs are approved by stockholders and meet other requirements. We believe that grants of equity awards under may qualify as performance-based for purposes of satisfying the conditions of Section 162(m), thereby permitting us to receive a federal income tax deduction, if applicable, in connection with such awards. In general, we have determined that we will not seek to limit executive compensation so that it is deductible under Section 162(m). However, from time to time, we monitor whether it might be in our interests to structure our compensation programs to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) and relevant tax implications in the PRC. We seek to maintain flexibility in compensating our executives in a manner designed to promote our corporate goals and therefore our compensation committee has not adopted a policy requiring all compensation to be deductible. Our compensation committee will continue to assess the impact of Section 162(m) and relevant tax implications in the PRC on our compensation practices and determine what further action, if any, is appropriate.

Employment Agreements

We have entered into the following agreements filed in our corporate office with our executive officers and directors:

On February 16, 2010, the Company entered into consulting agreements with two of its independent directors, Gerald DeCiccio and Doug Cole. Pursuant to Mr. DeCiccio’s agreement, Mr. DeCiccio will receive $20,000 and 12,000 shares of the Company’s common stock annually. The Company shall issue him 6,000 shares of common stock on June 1, 2010 and December 1, 2010. The term of Mr. DeCiccio’s agreement is until February 28, 2011. Pursuant to Mr. Cole’s agreement, Mr. Cole will receive $10,000 and 6,000 shares of common stock annually. The Company shall issue him 3,000 shares of common stock on June 1, 2010 and December 1, 2010. The term of Mr. Cole’s agreement is until March 15, 2011. The Company does not have a current written agreement with these two independent directors, but continues to compensate them under the same terms as their previous agreement.

On June 18, 2010, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with its new Chief Financial Officer, Michael Toups. The agreement is for a twelve month term. Under the terms of the agreement, the Chief Financial Officer is to be compensated $10,000 per month. He is also to receive a share award of 60,000 shares of common stock under the following terms, 15,000 shares of the Company’s common stock shall vest and be issued on the last day of each calendar quarter for services rendered during that quarter, beginning September 30, 2010. The Company renewed this agreement for an additional twelve months on August 8, 2011 under the same terms as the previous agreement.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

As of June 30, 2011, the Company has not adopted an equity compensation plan.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End

None.

Pension and Retirement Plans

Currently, except for contributions to the PRC government-mandated social security retirement endowment fund for those employees who have not waived their coverage, we do not offer any annuity, pension or retirement benefits to be paid to any of our officers, directors or employees. There are also no compensatory plans or arrangements with respect to any individual named above which results or will result from the resignation, retirement or any other termination of employment with our company, or from a change in our control.

PROPOSAL 2.

RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR 2012

Our Board has appointed Child, Van Wagoner & Bradshaw, PLLC (“CV&B”), to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending June 30, 2012. CV&B has acted as our principal accountant since 2007 and served as our principal accountant for the year ending June 30, 2011.

The selection of our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to be submitted to a vote of our shareholders for ratification. However, Longwei is submitting this matter to the shareholders as a matter of good corporate governance. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Board may, in its discretion, appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in the best interests of Longwei and its shareholders. If the appointment is not ratified, the Board will consider its options.

A representative of CV&B is expected to be available telephonically at the Annual Meeting. He or she will have the opportunity to make a statement if desired and is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Our Audit Committee retains our independent registered public accounting firm and approves in advance all audit and non-audit services performed by this firm and any other auditing firms. Although management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process including the systems of internal control, the Audit Committee consults with management and our independent registered public accounting firm regarding the preparation of financial statements, the adoption and disclosure of our critical accounting estimates and generally oversees the relationship of the independent registered public accounting firm with Longwei. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles, relating to their judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of Longwei’s accounting principles, and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the Audit Committee under generally accepted auditing standards.

It is not the duty of the Audit Committee to determine that Longwei’s financial statements and disclosures are complete and accurate and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or to plan or conduct audits. Those are the responsibilities of management and Longwei’s independent registered public accounting firm. In giving its recommendation to the Board, the Audit Committee has relied on: (1) management’s representation that such financial statements have been prepared with integrity and objectivity and in conformity with GAAP; and (2) the report of Longwei’s independent registered public accounting firm with respect to such financial statements.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services

The following table sets forth all fees we incurred in connection with professional services rendered by CV&B during the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:


Fee Type	2011		2010
Audit Fees	$	167,512	$	113,450
Audit-Related Fees		0		0
Tax Fees		5,000		5,000
All Other Fees		0		0

	$	172,512	$	118,450

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year, and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with the pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date.
