Item 8.01.                      Other Events.

On April 1, 2011 Orient Paper, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), was served notice of a lawsuit filed on March 30, 2011 in the Los Angeles Superior Court against the Company.  The complaint in the lawsuit, Tribank Capital Investments, Inc. v. Orient Paper, Inc. and Zhenyong Liu, alleges, among other claims, that the Company breached the Non-Circumvention Agreement dated October 29, 2008 between the Company and Tribank Capital Investments, Inc. (the “Agreement”), and that the Company was unjustly enriched as a result of breaching the Agreement.  The complaint seeks, among other relief, compensatory damages and plaintiff’s counsel’s fees.  The Company believes that the complaint has no merit and intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit.

This information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
