On February 13, 2012, SinoHub, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Ciao Telecom, Inc.

(“CiaoHub”).  SinoHub and Ciao Telecom will each initially own 47% of CiaoHub, with the remaining 6% to be equally divided among the six directors of CiaoHub.  The Agreement provides that Ciao Telecom will be responsible for obtaining land, government permits and debt financing for the construction of a factory in Brazil and for organizing and completing the construction of the factory. Ciao will also be responsible for the marketing of the products produced by the factory.  The Agreement further provides that SinoHub will be responsible for developing a business plan to facilitate CiaoHub’s fund-raising efforts, managing the operations of the factory and assisting in the sale of the products produced by the factory.  The Agreement further prohibits both SinoHub and Ciao Telecom from being involved with any business, activity or enterprise engaged in the manufacture, sale or distribution of mobile communications devices in Brazil other than through CiaoHub during the term of the Agreement and for six months thereafter.

A copy of a press release issued by the Company announcing the joint venture is attached hereto as exhibit 99.1.
