On October 31, 2012, China TransInfo Technology Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), completed its merger (the “Merger”) with TransCloud Acquisition, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Merger Sub”) and a wholly owned, direct subsidiary of TransCloud Company Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability and indirectly wholly owned by Mr. Shudong Xia (“Parent”), pursuant to the terms of the previously disclosed Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 8, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Parent and Merger Sub. As a result of the Merger, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

The Information in Item 5.01 below is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 3.01. NOTICE OF DELISTING OR FAILURE TO SATISFY A CONTINUED LISTING RULE OR STANDARD; TRANSFER OF LISTING.

On October 31, 2012, in connection with the completion of the Merger, the Company notified the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (the “NASDAQ”) of its intent to remove its common stock, par value US$0.001, from listing on the NASDAQ Global Market and requested the NASDAQ to file a delisting application on Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to delist and deregister its common stock. The Form 25 was filed with the SEC by the NASDAQ on October 31, 2012. The Company expects to file with the SEC a certification on Form 15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) on or about November 12, 2012, requesting the deregistration of the Company common stock and the suspension of the Company’s reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

ITEM 3.03. MATERIAL MODIFICATION TO RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

As of the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of Company common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to US$5.80 without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, except for shares held by the Company as treasury stock or owned, directly or indirectly, by Parent, Merger Sub or any wholly owned subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, including shares contributed to Parent by Mr. Shudong Xia (chairman, president, chief executive officer and secretary of the Company), Ms. Danxia Huang (director, vice president of operations and treasurer of the Company), Mr. Shufeng Xia (director of financial department of China TransInfo Technology Group Co., Ltd., the Company’s consolidated variable interest entity), Karmen Investment Holdings Limited (one of the Company’s stockholders and beneficially owned by Mr. Shudong Xia) and SAIF Partners III, L.P. (collectively, the “Rollover Holders”), which were cancelled without receiving any consideration. In addition, at the Effective Time, (i) each outstanding, vested and unexercised option to purchase shares of Company common stock was cancelled and converted into the right to receive, a cash amount equal to the number of shares underlying such option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the amount by which US$5.80 exceeds the exercise price per share of such option, net of any applicable withholding taxes; (ii) each outstanding and unvested option to purchase shares of Company common stock was cancelled and converted into the right to receive a restricted cash award in an amount equal to the number of shares underlying such option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied the amount by which US$5.80 exceeds the exercise price per share of such option; and (iii) each outstanding and unexercised warrant to purchase shares of Company common stock was cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash amount equal to the total number of shares underlying such warrant  immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the amount by which US$5.80 exceeds the exercise price per share of such warrant.
