INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT
North Asia Investment Corporation (“NAIC”) announced today that although it has been continuing its search for a potential business combination transaction to present to shareholders prior to the date it is required to liquidate, it has been unable to locate a suitable transaction. Consequently, its corporate existence will terminate on July 29, 2009 in accordance with the terms of its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. As a result, NAIC will thereafter liquidate and distribute to the holders of shares issued in its initial public offering their pro-rata portion of the funds held in its trust account established for the benefit of such shareholders, which will be approximately $10.00 per share. NAIC’s warrants will expire with no value. A press release announcing such determination was issued on July 14, 2010 and is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K.
