Additional Information About the Transaction and Where to Find It
In connection with the proposed acquisition, China Holdings Acquisition Corporation (“CHAC”) intends to prepare a registration statement containing a proxy statement/prospectus to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) . When completed, a definitive proxy statement/prospectus and a form of proxy will be mailed to the stockholders of CHAC, seeking their approval of the transaction. Stockholders are urged to read the proxy statement/prospectus regarding the proposed acquisition carefully and in its entirety because it will contain important information about the proposed acquisition. Stockholders will be able to obtain, without charge, a copy of the proxy statement/prospectus (when available) and other relevant documents filed with the SEC from the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. Stockholders will also be able to obtain, without charge, a copy of the proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents (when available) by directing a request by mail to Mark L. Wilson at China Holdings Acquisition Corp., 5th Floor, 33 Riverside Avenue, Westport, CT 06880 or by telephone at (203) 226-6288.
CHAC and its directors and officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from CHAC’s stockholders with respect to the proposed acquisition. Information about CHAC’s directors and executive officers and their ownership of CHAC’s common stock and warrants is set forth in CHAC’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Stockholders may obtain additional information regarding the interests of CHAC and its directors and executive officers in the proposed acquisition, which may be different than those of CHAC’s stockholders generally, by reading the proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents regarding the proposed acquisition when filed with the SEC.
