This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, we may offer from time to time, in one or more offerings, securities having an aggregate initial offering price of up to $150,000,000 (or its equivalent in foreign or composite currencies).  This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities that may be offered. Each time we offer securities under this shelf registration statement, we will provide you with a prospectus supplement that describes the specific amounts, prices and terms of the securities being offered. The prospectus supplement also may add, update or change information contained in this prospectus. You should read carefully both this prospectus and any prospectus supplement together with additional information described below under the caption “Where You Can Find More Information,” before making an investment decision. We have incorporated exhibits into this registration statement. You should read the exhibits carefully for provisions that may be important to you.
 
You should rely only on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement. We have not authorized any person to provide you with different or additional information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. This prospectus is not an offer to sell securities, and it is not soliciting an offer to buy securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement, as well as information we have previously filed with the SEC and incorporated by reference, is accurate as of the date on the front of those documents only. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates.
 
We may sell securities through underwriters or dealers, through agents, directly to purchasers or through a combination of these methods. We and our agents reserve the sole right to accept or reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of securities. The prospectus supplement, which we will provide to you each time we offer securities, will set forth the names of any underwriters, agents or others involved in the sale of securities and any applicable fee, commission or discount arrangements with them. See the information described below under the heading “Plan of Distribution.”
 
The terms “Telestone,” “our,” “we” and “us,” as used in this prospectus, refer to Telestone Technologies Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, except where it is clear that the term refers only to the parent company.

An investment in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus before purchasing any of our securities. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties may also adversely impair our business operations. If any of the events described in the risk factors below actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer significantly. In such case, the value of your investment could decline and you may lose all or part of the money you paid to buy our securities.

In addition to other matters identified or described by us from time to time in filings with the SEC, there are several important factors that could cause our future results to differ materially from historical results or trends, results anticipated or planned by us, or results that are reflected from time to time in any forward-looking statement. Some of these important factors, but not necessarily all important factors, include the following:

Risks Related to Our Business and Operations

Current economic conditions may adversely impact demand for our products, reduce access to credit and cause our customers and others with which we do business to suffer financial hardship, all of which could adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
 
Our business, financial condition and results of operations have and may continue to be affected by various economic factors. The worldwide economy is undergoing a period of slowdown and the future economic environment may continue to be less favorable than that of recent years. This slowdown has, and could further lead to, reduced consumer and business spending in the foreseeable future, including by our customers. Reduced access to credit has and may continue to adversely affect the ability of consumers to purchase our products and system solutions.  In addition, economic conditions, including decreased access to credit, may result in financial difficulties leading to restructurings, bankruptcies, liquidations and other unfavorable events for our customers, suppliers and other service providers. If such conditions continue or further deteriorate, our industry, business and results of operations may be severely impacted.
 
We rely on a small number of significant customers.
 
Our success depends substantially upon retaining our significant clients, such as China Unicom and China Mobile. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to retain long-term relationships or secure renewals of short-term relationships with our significant clients in the future. If we were to lose such customers, it is unclear if we would be able to replace them or how long it would take to do so. Accordingly, our revenues and profitability would be negatively impacted.
 
We have not entered into any long term contracts with our customers. 
 
All of our agreements with our customers are for short term projects or sales of equipment. While we believe that our significant relationships with China Unicom and China Mobile will likely provide additional sales agreements in the future, none of our customers are contractually bound to purchase any products or services from us in the future.  If our customers do not continue to purchase products or services from us in the future, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

-5-

 
We depend on a limited number of suppliers. 
 
We rely on certain suppliers to provide us various pieces of telecommunications equipment. If we were to lose our relationship with those suppliers, we may experience difficulties finding a suitable replacement for our equipment needs, and our business and operations could be adversely affected.
 
We face intense competition. 
 
The market for wireless coverage solutions services is intensely competitive in the People’s Republic of China. There are numerous other wireless coverage service providers with which we compete for business. There are low barriers to entry for new competitors in our market and our business may experience a negative impact as a result of increased competition. In addition, our existing or potential competitors may in the future achieve greater market acceptance and gain additional market share, which in turn could reduce our revenues and operations.
 
We depend on key personnel for the success of our business.

Our business may be severely disrupted if we lose the services of our key executives and employees or fail to add new senior and middle managers to our management. Our future success is heavily dependent upon the continued service of our key executives, particularly Han Daqing, our Chief Executive Officer and President, Luo Zhengbin, our Chief Technology Officer, Li Hong, our Chief Financial Officer and Yong Shiqin, our Chief Operating Officer. Our future success is also dependent upon our ability to attract and retain qualified senior and middle managers to our management team. If one or more of our current or future key executives and employees are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to easily replace them, and our business may be severely disrupted. In addition, if any of these key executives or employees joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we could lose customers and suppliers and incur additional expenses to recruit and train personnel. Each of our executive officers has entered into an employment agreement with us.

We also rely on a number of key technology staff for the operation of our Company. Given the competitive nature of our industry, the risk of key technology staff leaving our Company is high and could disrupt our operations.

We rely on a third party production center. 
 
We utilize a third party production center for the manufacture of the products we sell to our customers. Although we are parties to a memorandum of cooperation regarding such manufacturing arrangement, we cannot be assured that such cooperation will continue indefinitely. Should we be required to utilize a different source for our manufactured products our costs could be adversely affected.
 
Rapid growth and a rapidly changing operating environment may strain our limited resources. 
 
We will need to increase our investment in our technology infrastructure, facilities and other areas of operations, in particular our product development, in order to facilitate our growth. If we are unable to manage our growth and expansion effectively, the quality of our products and services, and in turn, our customer support, could deteriorate and our business and results of operations may suffer. Our future success will depend on, among other things, our ability to:

·
continue to develop through our research and development facilities new technologies acceptable to the PRC market;

·
continue training, motivating and retaining our existing employees and attract and integrate new employees, including our senior management;

·
develop and improve our operational, financial, accounting and other internal systems and controls; and

·
maintain adequate controls and procedures to ensure that our periodic public disclosure under applicable laws, including U.S. securities laws, is complete and accurate.

We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property, and we may be exposed to infringement claims by third parties. 
 
We rely primarily on a combination of copyright laws and contractual restrictions to establish and protect our intellectual property rights. Monitoring unauthorized use of our information services is difficult and costly, and we cannot be certain that the steps we take will effectively prevent misappropriation of our technology and content. Our management may determine in the future to register for copyrights, trademarks or trade secret protection if management determines that such protection would be beneficial and cost-effective.
 
From time to time, we may have to resort to litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources. In addition, parties may initiate litigation against us for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights. In the event of a successful claim of infringement and our failure or inability to develop non-infringing technology, content or license the infringed or similar technology or content on a timely basis, our business could suffer. Moreover, even if we are able to license the infringed or similar technology or content, license fees that we pay to licensors could be substantial or uneconomical.
 
We have limited business insurance coverage. 
 
The insurance industry in the PRC is still at an early stage of development. Insurance companies in the PRC offer limited business insurance products, and do not, to our knowledge, offer business liability insurance. As a result, we do not have any business liability insurance coverage for our operations. Any business disruption, litigation or natural disaster might result in substantial costs and diversion of resources.
 
Risks Related To Doing Business in China

A downturn in the Chinese economy may slow down our growth and profitability. 
 
The growth of the Chinese economy has been uneven across geographic regions and economic sectors. There can be no assurance that growth of the Chinese economy will be steady or that any downturn will not have a negative effect on our business. Our profitability will decrease if expenditures for wireless services decrease due to a downturn in the Chinese economy. In addition, increased penetration of wireless services in the less economically developed central and western provinces of the PRC will depend on those provinces achieving certain income levels, so that mobile phones and related services become affordable to a significant portion of the population.

Government regulation of the telecommunications industry may become more complex.

Government regulation of the telecommunications industry is highly complex. New regulations could increase our costs of doing business and prevent us from efficiently delivering our services. These regulations may stop or slow down the expansion of our user base and limit the access to our services.

Our ability to generate revenues could suffer if the Chinese market for wireless coverage solutions services does not develop as anticipated.

The wireless services market in the PRC has evolved rapidly over the last four years, with the introduction of new services, development of consumer preferences, market entry by new competitors and adaptation of strategies by existing competitors. We expect each of these trends to continue, and we must continue to adapt our strategy to successfully compete in our market.

In particular, we currently offer a wide range of wireless coverage solutions services for mobile phones using 2G technologies including GSM/CDMA/PHS/WLAN and are developing wireless coverage solutions for 3G mobile phones. There can be no assurance, however, that any of these 2G or 3G technologies and any services compatible with them will be accepted by consumers or promoted by the mobile operators. Accordingly, it is extremely difficult to accurately predict consumer acceptance and demand for various existing and potential new offerings and services, and the future size, composition and growth of this market.

-7-

 
Our ability to compete on a nationwide scale may be impaired due to state-owned competitors.

Although we believe our strongest competitors are other privately held Chinese companies, we face direct competition with telecommunications companies which are either state-owned or state-run. In certain circumstances, these state-owned competitors may receive preferential treatment, particularly in the awarding of governmental contracts.

The uncertain legal environment in China could limit the legal protections available to you.

The Chinese legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes.  Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which precedents set in earlier legal cases are not generally used.  The overall effect of legislation enacted over the past 20 years has been to enhance the protections afforded to foreign invested enterprises in China.  However, these laws, regulations and legal requirements are relatively recent and are evolving rapidly and their interpretation and enforcement involves uncertainties.  In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all) that may have a retroactive effect.  As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until some time after the violation.  These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to foreign investors, such as the right of foreign invested enterprises to hold licenses and permits such as requisite business licenses.  In addition, all of our executive officers and our directors are residents of China, and substantially all the assets of these persons are located outside the U.S.  As a result, it could be difficult for investors to effect service of process in the U.S., or to enforce a judgment obtained in the U.S. against us or any of these persons.

Changes in the PRC’s political and economic policies could harm our business.

The economy of the PRC has historically been a planned economy subject to governmental plans and quotas and has, in certain aspects, been transitioning to a more market-oriented economy. Although we believe that the economic reform and the macroeconomic measures adopted by the Chinese government have had a positive effect on the economic development of the PRC, we cannot predict the future direction of these economic reforms or the effects these measures may have on our business, financial position or results of operations. In addition, the Chinese economy differs from the economies of most countries belonging to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (the “OECD”). These differences include:

·     Economic structure;
 
·     Level of government involvement in the economy;

·     Level of development;

·     Level of capital reinvestment;

·     Control of foreign exchange;

·     Methods of allocating resources; and

·     Balance of payments position.
 
As a result of these differences, our business may not develop in the same way or at the same rate as might be expected if the Chinese economy were similar to those of the OECD member countries.

-8-

 
Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our revenues effectively. 
 
Because almost all of our future revenues may be in the form of RMB, any future restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use revenue generated in RMB to fund any future business activities outside the PRC or to make dividend or other payments in U.S. dollars. Although the Chinese government introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of the RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain, including primarily, the restriction that foreign invested enterprises may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies, after providing valid commercial documents, at those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. In addition, conversion of RMB for capital account items, including direct investment and loans, is subject to governmental approval in the PRC, and companies are required to open and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. We cannot be certain that the Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of the RMB, especially with respect to foreign exchange transactions.

The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities.

China only recently has permitted provincial and local economic autonomy and private economic activities. Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties.
 
Future inflation in China may inhibit our ability to conduct business in China.

In recent years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid expansion and high rates of inflation. During the past ten years, the rate of inflation in China has been as high as 20.7% and as low as -2.2%. These factors have led to the adoption by Chinese government, from time to time, of various corrective measures designed to restrict the availability of credit or regulate growth and contain inflation. While inflation has been more moderate since 1995, high inflation may in the future cause Chinese government to impose controls on credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic activity in China, and thereby harm the market for our products.
  
Cessation of the preferential rate of income tax may have an adverse impact on our net income.

Under current Chinese tax legislation on enterprise income tax, except for a major PRC subsidiary which has been designated as a high / new technology enterprise in 2009 and taxed by the preferential income tax rate of 15%, all income of other PRC subsidiaries are taxed by the unified income tax rate of 25%.
 
A new Chinese law may impact our ability to make acquisitions of Chinese businesses.

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies namely, the PRC Ministry of Commerce, the State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (“SASAC”), the State Administration for Taxation, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”), and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”), jointly adopted the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (the “New M&A Rule”), which became effective on September 8, 2006. The New M&A Rule purports, among other things, to require offshore special purpose vehicles, or SPVs, formed after the effective date, for overseas listing purposes, through acquisitions of PRC domestic companies and controlled by PRC companies or individuals, to obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to publicly listing their securities on an overseas stock exchange.
 
-9-

 
The Company intends to make acquisitions of Chinese businesses in the future. There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current or future PRC laws and regulations, including the New M&A Rule and there uncertainties could make it difficult or impossible to make acquisitions of Chinese businesses in the future.

The fluctuation of the Renminbi may materially and adversely affect your investment.
 
        The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation of the Renminbi may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenues and financial condition. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars we receive from this offering of our common stock into Renminbi for our operations, appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
        Conversely, if we decide to convert our Renminbi into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making payments for dividends on our common shares or for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the Renminbi, the U.S. dollar equivalent of the Renminbi we convert would be reduced. Any significant devaluation of Renminbi may reduce our operation costs in U.S. dollars but may also reduce our earnings in U.S. dollars. In addition, the depreciation of significant U.S. dollar denominated assets could result in a charge to our income statement and a reduction in the value of these assets.
 
        Since 1994 the PRC has pegged the value of the Renminbi to the U.S. dollar. We do not believe that this policy has had a material effect on our business. There can be no assurance that Renminbi will not be subject to devaluation. We may not be able to hedge effectively against Renminbi devaluation, so there can be no assurance that future movements in the exchange rate of Renminbi and other currencies will not have an adverse effect on our financial condition.
 
        In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain sufficient foreign exchange to pay dividends or satisfy other foreign exchange requirements in the future.

Any recurrence of severe acute respiratory syndrome, (“SARS”), or another widespread public health problem, could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

A renewed outbreak of SARS or another widespread public health problem in the PRC, where all of our revenue is derived, and in Beijing where our operations are headquartered, could have a negative effect on our operations. Our operations may be impacted by a number of health-related factors, including the following:

·
Quarantines or closures of some of our offices which would severely disrupt our operations;

·
The sickness or death of our key officers and employees; and

·
A general slowdown in the Chinese economy.

Any of the foregoing events or other unforeseen consequences of public health problems could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
 
You may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. federal courts may be limited. All of our subsidiaries are incorporated in non-U.S. jurisdictions, we conduct substantially all of our operations in China, and all of our officers reside outside the United States.

We conduct substantially all of our operations in China through our wholly owned subsidiaries in China. All of our officers reside outside the United States and some or all of the assets of those persons are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against us or against these individuals in China in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed under the securities laws or otherwise. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the PRC may render you unable to enforce a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors and officers. As a result of all of the above, our public stockholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests through actions against our management, directors or major stockholders than would stockholders of a corporation doing business entirely within the United States.

Risks Related To Our Shares

The market price for our common stock is volatile. 

The market price for our common stock is highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following:

·
Actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly operating results;

·
Announcements of new products and services by us or our competitors;

·
Changes in financial estimates by securities analysts;

·
Changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other companies providing similar products and services;

·
 Announcements by our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
 
·
 Additions or departures of key personnel;

·
 Potential litigation;

·
 Conditions in the mobile phone market; or

·
 Weak liquidity.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

The value of our securities will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Renminbi. 

The value of our common stock will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Renminbi. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into Renminbi for our operational needs and should the Renminbi appreciate against the U.S. dollar at that time, our financial position and the price of our common stock may be adversely affected. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Renminbi into U.S. dollars for the purpose of declaring dividends on our ordinary shares or for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the Renminbi, the U.S. dollar equivalent of our earnings from our subsidiaries in the PRC would be reduced.

Stockholders could experience substantial dilution.

We may issue additional shares of our capital stock to raise additional cash for working capital or for other purposes. If we issue additional shares of our capital stock, our stockholders will experience dilution in their respective percentage ownership in the company and may experience dilution in the value of their shares.
 
We have no present intention to pay dividends. 

We have never paid dividends or made other cash distributions on our common stock, and do not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, for working capital and to finance current operations and expansion of our business.

A large portion of our common stock is controlled by a small number of stockholders. 

A large portion of our common stock is held by a small number of stockholders. As of February 25, 2010, our directors and officers collectively owned approximately 35.75% of the company’s outstanding common stock. As a result, these stockholders are able to influence the outcome of stockholder votes on various matters, including the election of directors and extraordinary corporate transactions including business combinations. This concentration of ownership could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in our control or otherwise discouraging a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could have a material and adverse effect on the market price of the common stock or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over the market prices for their shares of common stock.  In addition, the occurrence of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock, or the perception that these sales could occur, may affect our stock price and could impair our ability to obtain capital through an offering of equity securities. Furthermore, the current ratios of ownership of our common stock reduce the public float and liquidity of our common stock which can in turn affect the market price of our common stock.
 
Risks Related to This Offering
 
There is no assurance of an established public trading market, which would adversely affect the ability of investors in our company to sell their securities in the public markets.
 
        Although our common stock trades on the NASD’s automated quotation system (the “NASDAQ Stock Market”), a regular trading market for the securities may not be sustained in the future. Market prices for our common stock will be influenced by a number of factors, including:
 
·
the issuance of new equity securities;

·
changes in interest rates;

·
competitive developments, including announcements by competitors of new products or services or significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;

·
variations in quarterly operating results;

·
change in financial estimates by securities analysts;

·
the depth and liquidity of the market for our common stock;

·
investor perceptions of our company and the technologies industries generally; and

·
general economic and other national conditions.
 
The limited prior public market and trading market may cause volatility in the market price of our common stock.
 
        Our common stock is currently traded on the NASDAQ under the symbol “TSTC.” The quotation of our common stock on the NASDAQ does not assure that a meaningful, consistent and liquid trading market currently exists, and in recent years such market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of many smaller companies like us. Our common stock is thus subject to volatility. In the absence of an active trading market:
 
·
investors may have difficulty buying and selling or obtaining market quotations;

·
market visibility for our common stock may be limited; and
 
-12-

 
·
a lack of visibility for our common stock may have a depressive effect on the market for our common stock.
 
We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock.
 
        We have never paid dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Our directors intend to follow a policy of retaining all of our earnings, if any, to finance the development and expansion of our business.
 
Broker-dealer requirements may affect trading and liquidity.
 
        Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 15g-2 promulgated thereunder by the SEC require broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account.
 
        Potential investors in our common stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully before purchasing any shares that are deemed to be “penny stock.” Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise.
 
Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, as the future sale of a substantial amount of our restricted stock in the public marketplace could reduce the price of our common stock.
 
        From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), subject to certain limitations. The SEC has recently adopted amendments to Rule 144 which became effective on February 15, 2008. Under these amendments, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock or warrants for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale.
 
        Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock or warrants for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following:

·
1% of the total number of securities of the same class then outstanding; or

·
the average weekly trading volume of such securities during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale;
 
provided, in each case, that we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale.
 
-13-

 
Such sales both by affiliates and by non-affiliates must also comply with the manner of sale, current public information and notice provisions of Rule 144.

OUR COMPANY

Corporate History
 
Unless otherwise indicated, or unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Prospectus to the terms "Company," "Telestone," "we," "our," or "us" shall mean Telestone Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation.

We were organized under the laws of the State of Colorado in February 1987 under the name Shield Enterprises, Inc.

On January 3, 2002, we entered into an exchange agreement with EliteAgents Mortgage Services, Inc. (formerly Elite Agents, Inc.) ("Elite"), a licensed mortgage banker. As a result of the exchange, Elite became our wholly-owned subsidiary, and we had 80,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding, of which 72,000,000 shares were owned by the former stockholders of Elite and 8,000,000 shares were owned by our existing stockholders. Elite continued its mortgage banking activities and other financial services subsequent to the exchange. In addition, effective May 8, 2002, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Elite Agents Leasing Services, Inc. ("Leasing"), for the purpose of establishing equipment financing and leasing operations.

On September 26, 2003, we and Elite (the "Debtors") each filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey (the “Court”) (Case Nos. 03-41805 and 03-41806). The two voluntary petitions of the Debtors were consolidated for administrative purposes only on October 20, 2003. On December 30, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court authorized the Debtors to sell substantially all of their assets.

On March 24, 2004, the Court authorized the Debtors to sell both designation rights for a plan of reorganization and 25 million common shares, which were nondilutable under any capitalization, to Focus Tech Investments, Inc. or its designee ("Focus") for a purchase price of $65,000.00. In addition, 14 creditors agreed to advance an aggregate of $50,000.00, as a non-recourse claim, under the terms of convertible promissory notes ("Notes") pursuant to Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code, to the Debtors, to fund fees and expenses of the Debtors' and related committee's professionals for a plan of reorganization. The Notes were convertible into a total of 4,000,000 common shares and 1,000,000 warrants issued pursuant to Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code. The transaction was exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 as well as state and local law statutes requiring registration for an offer or sale of a security.

On August 10, 2004, the Court approved the Plan and entered the order entitled "Order Approving Disclosure Statement and Confirming First Amended Plan of Liquidation and Authorizing and Directing Certain Actions In Connection Therewith" (the "Order"). Pursuant to the Plan, all prior operational assets were liquidated and the proceeds were paid, per the approved claim schedule, to creditors and for the administration of the estate. Pursuant to the Plan, all of the property of the Debtor's estate vested in the Plan Trustee, free and clear of all claims, liens, encumbrances, charges or other interests, and all executory contracts and unexpired leases were rejected. The Court also placed an injunction against all entities that may have held, currently hold, or may hold a debt, claim or other liability or interest against the Debtors, dischargeable upon confirmation of the Plan, and permanently enjoined any action on account of such debt, claim, liability, interest or right. The Court further terminated all claims arising or related to stock, stock options, stock plans for employees, officers and directors, warrants and convertible provisions within the debt instruments by creditors. The Court ordered that our common stock be diluted by a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding common shares. Under the Order, each share of our common stock issued and outstanding was reclassified on a one (1) for 822 basis at a $0.001 par value.

-15-

 
The Court then ordered that we:

 
·
reincorporate and redomicile from the State of Colorado to the State of Delaware;
 
 
·
that the name of the Company be changed to Telestone Technologies Corporation;

 
·
that the company's board of directors be authorized under the Plan to issue common stock pursuant to an exchange agreement at the time of closing or in escrow, in which effective control or majority ownership of the Company is given to the acquired or acquiring business entity without the need of stockholder approval; and

 
·
that the Board of Directors be authorized to amend the Company's By-Laws and amend the Company's fiscal year to a date established and set forth in an exchange agreement without the need of stockholder approval.

Pursuant to the Order, we reincorporated in the State of Delaware under the name Telestone Technologies Corporation on August 13, 2004 by filing a Certificate of Incorporation with the State of Delaware. We are now authorized to issue a total of 110,000,000 shares with 100,000,000 being shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001, and 10,000,000 being shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001.

Pursuant to the Order, we approved the reverse stock split of issued and outstanding common shares. Under the Order, our issued and outstanding common stock was reclassified on a one (1) for 822 basis at a par value of $0.001. A Certificate of Amendment was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on August 17, 2004.

On August 23, 2004, we completed a share exchange transaction with the stockholders of Success Million International Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong ("SMI"). The share exchange was consummated under Delaware law and pursuant to the terms of that certain Securities Exchange Agreement, dated effective as of August 23, 2004 (the "Exchange Agreement").

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, we issued 4.1 million shares of our common stock to the stockholders of SMI, representing approximately 97.6% of our issued and outstanding common stock, immediately upon the consummation of the exchange transaction, in exchange for 100% of the outstanding capital stock of SMI. Immediately after giving effect to the exchange, we had 4,199,917 shares of common stock outstanding. Pursuant to the exchange, SMI became our wholly-owned subsidiary. For accounting purposes, the exchange is treated as a reverse acquisition, as the stockholders of SMI own a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. Due to the issuance of the 4.1 million shares of our common stock, a change in control occurred on August 23, 2004, the date of the consummation of the exchange. We now carry on the business of SMI's wholly-owned subsidiary, Beijing Telestone Technologies Co., Ltd. ("Beijing Telestone").

On June 17, 2005, Beijing Telestone, with an operational period of 20 years, established Beijing Telestone Wireless Telecommunication Company Limited ("BTWTC") in Beijing, the People's Republic of China (the "PRC") . Beijing Telestone controls BTWTC through contractual arrangements. The registered capital of BTWTC amounts to RMB10 million (approximately US$1.2 million). BTWTC was established to engage in the business of wireless telecommunication networking and system integration.
 
On July 5, 2007, BTWTC, Shandong Guolian Telecommunication Technology Limited (“Guolian”) and owners of Guolian entered into a Share Transfer Agreement (the “Agreement”). Under the Agreement, 100% equity ownership interests in Guolian and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pan-pacific Telecommunication Company Limited (“Pan-pacific”), was transferred by all of the owners of Guolian to BTWTC. Guolian and Pan-pacific were established in Jinan, Shandong Province, the PRC on February 9, 1999 and October 22, 1999, respectively. The principal business activities of Guolian and Pan-pacific are design, development, production and installation and trading of wireless telecommunication coverage system equipment.
 
-16-

 
On October 8, 2007, BTWTC formed a subsidiary named Beijing Telestone Communication Technology Corp. Ltd (the "Subsidiary") which focuses on developing and managing Telestone's overseas businesses. The Subsidiary will be responsible for all of Telestone's international businesses and focuses on the Company's international expansion efforts. The move is intended to simplify current command and reporting lines. The Subsidiary will also seek to identify new opportunities to ensure consistent growth in Telestone's overseas businesses.

Our executive offices are those of Beijing Telestone Technologies Co., Ltd. and are located at Floor 6, Saiou Plaza, No. 5 Haiyang Road, Fengtai Technology Park, Beijing China 100070. Our telephone number is 86-10-83670505.
 
Business
 
We are a leading wireless communications coverage solutions provider serving the Chinese market.  Since 1997, we have operated in the Chinese market and in 2006, we expanded marketing efforts to Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and India. Since 2007, Beijing Telestone Communication Technology Corp. Ltd was established as one of our subsidiaries focusing on developing and managing our overseas businesses. Currently, marketing has expanded to 28 countries in the world, including the U.S., Vietnam, Mexico, Brazil, Russia, India, The Philippines, Thailand, Ireland, Ecuador, Mongolia, South Africa, Turkey, Indonesia, Colombia, Costa Rica, Argentina, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Singapore, South Korea, Hong Kong (SAR), Saudi Arabia, New Zealand, Bangladesh, the UAE, Canada and Iceland. Continuous expansion outside of China is one of our core strategies. We believe that the quality of our products and services will allow Telestone to be increasingly competitive internationally.

Our wireless coverage solutions include research and development and application of wireless communications technology. In addition to our homegrown wireless communications equipment which includes repeaters, antennas and radio frequency peripherals, we also offer project design, project management, installation, maintenance and other after-sales services required by our customers. Our wireless coverage solutions are created to further enhance the coverage of mobile telecommunications networks; this is done to improve the quality of reception for mobile phone users. The solutions we provide to the telecommunications industry cover indoor and outdoor environments, including hotels, residential estates, office buildings, airports, exhibition centers, underground stations, highways and tunnels. In 2006, having successfully completed commercial trials and deployment of our 3D solution, a third generation indoor coverage solution researched and developed by us, we expanded our services to telecommunication technologies markets, including the 3D solution, which utilizes fiber technology in the radio frequency signal distribution to transmit high speed data signals, and the PHS system optimization solution, which transitioned to network optimization phase from network maintenance phase, to address four major issues of wireless networks: network coverage, network planning, network capacity and network disturbance. Our TD-SCDMA repeaters application solutions have flexible network grouping, low construction cost, and convenient and fast equipment installation and removal. Our TD-SCDMA repeaters application solutions can be applied in signal coverage of blind spots such as blocked signal areas, tunnels and temporary meeting rooms. Because the TD-SCDMA system works in 2GHz frequency bands, it has weak penetrability compared with the 800MHz and the 900MHz frequency band of the 2G network. This weak penetrability will cause many blind signal spots and TD-SCDMA repeaters can be used to cover these blind signal spots. We anticipate that the TD-SCDMA repeaters application solutions will be marketable in the PRC as the development of the TD-SCDMA network will be completed in the PRC.

In 2008, we launched a new generation of wireless distribution system, WFDSTM. Combining the technologies of wireless telecom and fiber telecom, WFDSTM is an all-optical network. This system supports all mobile telecom networks and various other networks, including WLAN, FTTH, telephone networks, and video surveillance system. In addition, we believe that WFDSTM can be quickly installed and simply maintained, which realizes for customers the coverage with comparatively low cost.

Since the establishment of Telestone in 1997, we have developed business relationships with both China Mobile Communications Corporation ("China Mobile") and China Unicom Limited ("China Unicom"), along with two PRC-based telecom carriers, China Netcom and China Telecom. China Unicom was our main customer in 2006, and this business association accounted for approximately 35.65% of total sales in 2006. In 2007, our main customers were China Mobile and China Unicom, and the revenues from them were 41.92% and 38.69%, respectively. In 2008, our main customers were also China Mobile and China Unicom, and the revenues from them were 47.70% and 41.95%, respectively. Over three years, our business has grown steadily, and we believe there is a strong potential for further growth.

We are committed to the research and development of wireless communication related technology. Over 90% of our technology is developed in-house at our research and development center. We employ an experienced and highly trained professional staff of scientists and engineers that concentrate on the invention and further advances in wireless communication technology. Since its introduction, our WFDSTM solution as an innovative product has received recognition in the telecommunications industry and has won commendations from several telecommunications carriers.

We have offices in 26 provinces across the PRC, offering sales, project survey, design, project management and installation and maintenance services. We believe that this sales and service strategy enriches our capability to increase our existing customer base in the PRC and enable us to provide timely response to customers’ inquires as well as technical and maintenance service upon our customers' request. Our sales efforts are not focused in or dependent upon any particular regions or provinces of the PRC.

Our Competitive Strengths
 
We believe that the following competitive strengths enable us to compete effectively and to capitalize on the growth opportunities of our markets:

Strong research and development capability
 
·
Our R&D capability is ranked as one of the leaders in technology in the telecommunications industry in the PRC. We have a dependable engineering project management system and an experienced engineering team. Our research and development center is equipped with the latest equipment and testing facilities which give our research and development personnel the tools they require to make significant advances into wireless coverage technologies. In addition, we provide our employees with continuing education administered through internal programs.  Our proprietary WFDSTM product is one of the leading indoor wireless coverage products in China. Compared with other traditional wireless distribution systems, the WFDSTM system has many advantages. Firstly, WFDSTM adopts fiber to transport signals. Based on the low signal loss characteristic of fiber, through which signals can transmit long distances, the main unit (MU) can be placed closer to the signal source and the remote unit (RU) can be placed closer to subscribers.  Therefore, a micro power signal source can be used, which reduces interference and noise, purifies the electromagnetic environment, and expands the coverage area. Secondly, due to the input port of the MU connecting to the signal combiner, WFDSTM systems can support multiple signals access and network integration. WFDSTM provides all communication services access in 500kHz~3GHz broadband bandwidth for subscribers. Thirdly, due to the fact that each node of the system has the same bandwidth and flow characteristics, WFDSTM provides the same communication services for every subscriber. WFDSTM systems are also convenient and flexible for implementing expansion and upgrading of the systems with minimum cost. Our R&D capabilities are recognized and affirmed by the PRC government and has won accolades such as the Project Certificate of National-level Torch Program and the Project Certificate of Nation-level Spark Program. In addition, a number of our products and systems, several of which have been patented or are patent pending, have been awarded various science and technology honors by PRC provincial and municipal governments. We are focused on increasing our research and development efforts to develop superior and proprietary technologies.

Our Strategies
 
In order to maintain our position as one of the leading companies in the PRC’s wireless coverage solutions sector, and expand and diversify our revenue streams, we have adopted the following strategies:
 
Continue to focus on research and development

We plan to continue to invest in research and development for our key technologies and our products to enhance our leading position in wireless coverage technology and take full advantage of the PRC’s investment in the 3G networks. We have dedicated research and development to wireless coverage solutions for the continued development of our business.
 
Seek selective acquisitions and strategic investments

In the domestic market, we intend to maintain strong relationships with Chinese mobile carriers and potentially make selective acquisitions in major provincial markets where we do not have leading market share. Our potential targets are companies that enjoy a leading market position and have strong business networks in their provincial markets, that have strong production capabilities and companies that own applicable value-added products whose customer premises network platform adapts to WFDS. We believe that we will further our penetration of provincial markets and raise our overall market share through selective acquisitions and the promotion of new solutions.
 
Strengthen international market presence

We plan to also focus on increasing our presence in markets outside of the PRC. We will continue to strengthen our presence overseas by leveraging our expertise and leading wireless coverage products and solutions. In the United States, we plan to seek cooperation with peers that have strong research and development ability, and develop technology and products that fit the market of the PRC. However, we also find partners within the integration business and sell our products, as our products have a significant cost advantage. In developing countries, we only seek cooperation with local integration partners to deliver our wireless coverage solution technologies, whom we then work with to set up our local products distribution channels

Competition 
 
Our main domestic competitors are Guangdong Comba, Wuhan Hongxin and China GrenTech.

·
Guangdong Comba is one of the first Chinese domestic telecom manufacturers. The company is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange under the stock symbol: 2342.HK

·
China GrenTech, formerly Powercom Holdings Limited, was founded in 1999 and is based in Shenzhen. China GrenTech is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol GRRF.

·
Wuhan Hongxin, originally a state-owned enterprise under the management of Wuhan Post & Telecom Academy, has a strong technical background and sales network. Wuhan Hongxin is a large company with a diverse group of products outside of the wireless coverage sector.

Our potential international competitors include Powerwave Technologies and Andrew Corporation. We believe that our overseas competitors are not key threats to Telestone because they have no competitive advantage with respect to product costs and are not accustomed to the marketplace of the PRC.

Government Regulation 
 
The following is a summary of the principal governmental laws and regulations that are or may be applicable to our operations in the PRC. The scope and enforcement of many of the laws and regulations described below are uncertain. We cannot predict the effect of further developments in the Chinese legal system, including the promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement of laws.

The telecommunications industry, including certain wireless coverage solution provider services, is highly regulated in the PRC. Regulations issued or implemented by the State-owned Assets Suprevision and Administration Commission of the State Council, Ministry of Information Industry of PRC and other relevant government authorities cover many aspects of telecommunications network operations, including entry into the telecommunications industry, the scope of permissible business activities, interconnection and transmission line arrangements, tariff policy and foreign investment.
 
The principal regulations governing the telecommunications services business in the PRC include:

·
Telecommunications Regulations (2000), (the “Telecom Regulations”). The Telecom Regulations categorize all telecommunications businesses in the PRC as either infrastructure telecommunications businesses or value-added telecommunications businesses. Under the Telecom Regulations, certain services are classified as being of a value-added nature and require the commercial operator of such services to obtain an operating license, including telecommunication information services, online data processing and translation processing, call centers and Internet access. The Telecom Regulations also set forth extensive guidelines with respect to different aspects of telecommunications operations in the PRC.

·
Regulations for the Administration of Foreign-Invested Telecommunications Enterprises (2002), (the “FI Telecom Regulations”). The FI Telecom Regulations set forth detailed requirements with respect to capitalization, investor qualifications and application procedures in connection with the establishment of a foreign-invested telecom enterprise.

·
Foreign Exchange Controls. The principal regulations governing foreign exchange in the PRC are the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations (1996) and the Administration of Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange Regulations (1996), (“the Foreign Exchange Regulations”). Under the Foreign Exchange Regulations, Renminbi (“RMB”) is freely convertible into foreign currency for current account items, including the distribution of dividends. Conversion of RMB for capital account items, such as direct investment, loans and security investment, however, is still subject to the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”). Under the Foreign Exchange Regulations, foreign-invested enterprises are required to open and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. In addition, foreign-invested enterprises may only buy, sell and/or remit foreign currencies at those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business after providing valid commercial documents and, in the case of capital account item transactions, obtaining approval from SAFE.
 
Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights 
 
We rely primarily on a combination of copyright laws and contractual restrictions to establish and protect our intellectual property rights. We require our employees to enter into agreements requiring them to keep confidential all information relating to our customers, methods, business and trade secrets during and after their employment with us. Our employees are required to acknowledge and recognize that all inventions, trade secrets, works of authorship, developments and other processes, whether or not patentable or copyrightable, made by them during their employment are our property. They also sign agreements to substantiate our sole and exclusive right to those works and to transfer any ownership that they may claim in those works to us.
 
-21-

 
While we actively take steps to protect our proprietary rights, including obtaining patent protection where applicable, such steps may not be adequate to prevent the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property. This is particularly the case in the PRC where the laws may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in the United States. Infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property could materially harm our business.

We have registered our corporate logo as a trademark with the Trademark Office of the PRC. The corporate logo depicts our name in English as well as Mandarin Chinese. China's trademark law utilizes a "first-to-file" system for obtaining trademark rights. As a result, the first applicant to file an application for registration of a mark will preempt all other applicants. Prior use of unregistered marks, except "well known" marks, is generally not a basis for legal action in the PRC. We may not be able to successfully defend or claim any legal rights in any trademarks for which we apply in the future.

Many parties are actively developing and seeking patent protection for wireless services-related technologies. We expect these parties to continue to take steps to protect these technologies, including seeking patent protection. There may be patents issued or pending that are held by others and that cover significant parts of our technology, business methods or services. Disputes over rights to these technologies are likely to arise in the future. We cannot be certain that our products do not or will not infringe valid patents, copyrights or other intellectual property rights held by third parties. We may be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time to time relating to the intellectual property of others.

We have obtained 10 patent certificates. Currently, 23 of our filed patent applications are under review,  of which 19 have received the notification of acceptance of the application from the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China. Our company will continue to put great effort towards protecting our intellectual property rights.
 
 
Except as otherwise provided in a prospectus supplement, we expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of securities offered pursuant to this prospectus for general corporate purposes, including possible acquisitions of complementary assets or businesses. When a particular series of securities is offered, the prospectus supplement relating to that offering will set forth our intended use of the net proceeds received from the sale of those securities.

·
shares of our common stock;
 
 
·
debt securities, in one or more series;
 
 
·
warrants to purchase our debt or equity securities; or
 
 
·
any combination of the foregoing, either individually or as units consisting of one or more of the foregoing, each on terms to be determined at the time of sale.
 
We may issue debt securities that are exchangeable for or convertible into shares of our common stock. When a particular series of securities is offered, a supplement to this prospectus will be delivered with this prospectus, which will set forth the terms of the offering and sale of the offered securities, as well as complete descriptions of the security or securities to be offered pursuant to the prospectus supplement.

Common Stock

Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock at a par value of $0.001 per share. As of February 25, 2010, there were 10,404,550 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.
 
Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Holders of our common stock representing a majority of the voting power of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as liquidation, merger or an amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation.
 
Holders of our common stock are entitled to share, prorate on the basis of shares held, in all dividends that the board of directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate pro rata in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. Our common stock has no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.
 
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
 
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that we may indemnify our directors and officers to the full extent permitted by Delaware law.  We have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding (other than an action by, or in the right of, the corporation), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against liability incurred in connection with such proceeding, including any appeal, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.  In addition, we have power to indemnify any person, who was or is a party to any proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses and amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of directors, the estimated expense of litigating the proceeding to conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding, including any appeal.

As used in this prospectus, debt securities means the debentures, notes, bonds and other evidences of indebtedness that we may issue from time to time. The debt securities may be either secured or unsecured and will either be senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities. The debt securities will be issued under one or more separate indentures between us and a trustee to be specified in an accompanying prospectus supplement. Senior debt securities will be issued under a new senior indenture. Subordinated debt securities will be issued under a subordinated indenture. Together, the senior indentures and the subordinated indentures are sometimes referred to in this prospectus as the indentures. This prospectus, together with the applicable prospectus supplement, will describe the terms of a particular series of debt securities.
 
The forms of our senior and subordinated indentures are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The statements and descriptions in this prospectus or in any prospectus supplement regarding provisions of the indentures and debt securities are summaries thereof, do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all of the provisions of the indentures (and any amendments or supplements we may enter into from time to time which are permitted under each indenture) and the debt securities, including the definitions therein of certain terms.

General

Unless indicated in a prospectus supplement, we may issue additional debt securities of a particular series without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of such series outstanding at the time of the issuance. Any such additional debt securities, together with all other outstanding debt securities of that series, will constitute a single series of debt securities under the applicable indenture.

Subordination
 
The prospectus supplement relating to any offering of subordinated debt securities will describe the specific subordination provisions. However, unless otherwise noted in the prospectus supplement, subordinated debt securities will be subordinate and junior in right of payment to any existing senior indebtedness.
 
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, under the subordinated indenture, “senior indebtedness” means all amounts due on obligations in connection with any of the following, whether outstanding at the date of execution of the subordinated indenture, or thereafter incurred or created:
 
 
 
the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest due on our indebtedness for borrowed money and indebtedness evidenced by bonds, notes, debentures or similar instruments or letters of credit (or reimbursement agreements in respect thereof);
 
 
 
all of our capital lease obligations or attributable debt (as defined in the indentures) in respect of sale and leaseback transactions;
 
 
 
all obligations representing the balance deferred and unpaid of the purchase price of any property or services, which purchase price is due more than six months after the date of placing such property in service or taking delivery and title thereto, except any such balance that constitutes an accrued expense or trade payable or any similar obligation to trade creditors;
 
 
 
all of our obligations in respect of interest rate swap agreements (whether from fixed to floating or from floating to fixed), interest rate cap agreements and interest rate collar agreements; other agreements or arrangements designed to manage interest rates or interest rate risk; and other agreements or arrangements designed to protect against fluctuations in currency exchange rates or commodity prices;
 
 
 
all obligations of the types referred to above of other persons for the payment of which we are responsible or liable as obligor, guarantor or otherwise; and
 
 
 
all obligations of the types referred to above of other persons secured by any lien on any property or asset of ours (whether or not such obligation is assumed by us).
 
However, senior indebtedness does not include:
 
 
 
any indebtedness which expressly provides that such indebtedness shall not be senior in right of payment to the subordinated debt securities, or that such indebtedness shall be subordinated to any other of our indebtedness, unless such indebtedness expressly provides that such indebtedness shall be senior in right of payment to the subordinated debt securities;
 
 
 
any of our obligations to our subsidiaries or of a subsidiary guarantor to us or any other of our other subsidiaries;
 
 
 
any liability for federal, state, local or other taxes owed or owing by us or any subsidiary guarantor,
 
 
 
any accounts payable or other liability to trade creditors arising in the ordinary course of business (including guarantees thereof or instruments evidencing such liabilities);
 
 
 
any obligations with respect to any capital stock;
 
 
 
any indebtedness incurred in violation of the indenture, provided that indebtedness under our credit facilities will not cease to be senior indebtedness under this bullet point if the lenders of such indebtedness obtained an officer’s certificate as of the date of incurrence of such indebtedness to the effect that such indebtedness was permitted to be incurred by the indenture; and
 
 
-26-

 

 
 
any of our indebtedness in respect of the subordinated debt securities.
 
Senior indebtedness shall continue to be senior indebtedness and be entitled to the benefits of the subordination provisions irrespective of any amendment, modification or waiver of any term of such senior indebtedness.
 
Unless otherwise noted in an accompanying prospectus supplement, if we default in the payment of any principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any senior indebtedness when it becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration or otherwise, then, unless and until such default is cured or waived or ceases to exist, we will make no direct or indirect payment (in cash, property, securities, by set-off or otherwise) in respect of the principal of or interest on the subordinated debt securities or in respect of any redemption, retirement, purchase or other requisition of any of the subordinated debt securities.
 
In the event of the acceleration of the maturity of any subordinated debt securities, the holders of all senior debt securities outstanding at the time of such acceleration, subject to any security interest, will first be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due on the senior debt securities before the holders of the subordinated debt securities will be entitled to receive any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the subordinated debt securities.
 
If any of the following events occurs, we will pay in full all senior indebtedness before we make any payment or distribution under the subordinated debt securities, whether in cash, securities or other property, to any holder of subordinated debt securities:
 
 
 
any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of Telestone Technologies Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy,
 
 
 
insolvency or receivership;
 
 
 
any general assignment by us for the benefit of creditors; or
 
 
 
any other marshaling of our assets or liabilities.
 
In such event, any payment or distribution under the subordinated debt securities, whether in cash, securities or other property, which would otherwise (but for the subordination provisions) be payable or deliverable in respect of the subordinated debt securities, will be paid or delivered directly to the holders of senior indebtedness in accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders until all senior indebtedness has been paid in full. If any payment or distribution under the subordinated debt securities is received by the trustee of any subordinated debt securities in contravention of any of the terms of the subordinated indenture and before all the senior indebtedness has been paid in full, such payment or distribution will be received in trust for the benefit of, and paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holders of the senior indebtedness at the time outstanding in accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders for application to the payment of all senior indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all such senior indebtedness in full.
 
The subordinated indenture does not limit the issuance of additional senior indebtedness.
 
Events of Default, Notice and Waiver
 
Unless an accompanying prospectus supplement states otherwise, the following shall constitute “events of default” under the indentures with respect to each series of debt securities:
 
 
 
we default for 30 consecutive days in the payment when due of interest on the debt securities;
 
 
 
we default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the debt securities;
 
 
 
our failure to observe or perform any other of our covenants or agreements with respect to such debt securities for 60 days after we receive notice of such failure;
 
 
 
certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Telestone Technologies Corporation; or
 
 
 
any other event of default provided with respect to securities of that series.
 
 
-27-

 
 
Unless an accompanying prospectus supplement states otherwise, if an event of default with respect to any debt securities of any series outstanding under either of the indentures shall occur and be continuing, the trustee under such indenture or the holders of at least 25% (or at least 10%, in respect of a remedy (other than acceleration) for certain events of default relating to the payment of dividends) in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of that series outstanding may declare, by notice as provided in the applicable indenture, the principal amount (or such lesser amount as may be provided for in the debt securities of that series) of all the debt securities of that series outstanding to be due and payable immediately; provided that, in the case of an event of default involving certain events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, acceleration is automatic; and, provided further, that after such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on acceleration, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration if all events of default, other than the nonpayment of accelerated principal, have been cured or waived. Upon the acceleration of the maturity of original issue discount securities, an amount less than the principal amount thereof will become due and payable. Reference is made to the prospectus supplement relating to any original issue discount securities for the particular provisions relating to acceleration of maturity thereof.
 
Any past default under either indenture with respect to debt securities of any series, and any event of default arising therefrom, may be waived by the holders of a majority in principal amount of all debt securities of such series outstanding under such indenture, except in the case of (1) default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any debt securities of such series or (2) certain events of default relating to the payment of dividends.
 
The trustee is required within 90 days after the occurrence of a default (which is known to the trustee and is continuing), with respect to the debt securities of any series (without regard to any grace period or notice requirements), to give to the holders of the debt securities of such series notice of such default.
 
The trustee, subject to its duties during default to act with the required standard of care, may require indemnification by the holders of the debt securities of any series with respect to which a default has occurred before proceeding to exercise any right or power under the indentures at the request of the holders of the debt securities of such series. Subject to such right of indemnification and to certain other limitations, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series under either indenture may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee with respect to the debt securities of such series, provided that such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with the applicable indenture and the trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.
 
No holder of a debt security of any series may institute any action against us under either of the indentures (except actions for payment of overdue principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on such debt security or for the conversion or exchange of such debt security in accordance with its terms) unless (1) the holder has given to the trustee written notice of an event of default and of the continuance thereof with respect to the debt securities of such series specifying an event of default, as required under the applicable indenture, (2) the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of that series then outstanding under such indenture shall have requested the trustee to institute such action and offered to the trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (3) the trustee shall not have instituted such action within 60 days of such request and (4) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the trustee during such 60-day period by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of that series. We are required to furnish annually to the trustee statements as to our compliance with all conditions and covenants under each indenture.
 
Discharge, Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance
 
We may discharge or defease our obligations under the indenture as set forth below, unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement.
 
We may discharge certain obligations to holders of any series of debt securities issued under either the senior indenture or the subordinated indenture which have not already been delivered to the trustee for cancellation by irrevocably depositing with the trustee money in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such debt securities not previously delivered to the trustee for cancellation, for principal and any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of debt securities which have become due and payable) or to the stated maturity or redemption date, as the case may be, and we or, if applicable, any guarantor, have paid all other sums payable under the applicable indenture.

 
-28-

 
 
If indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may elect either (1) to defease and be discharged from any and all obligations with respect to the debt securities of or within any series (except in all cases as otherwise provided in the relevant indenture) (“legal defeasance”) or (2) to be released from our obligations with respect to certain covenants applicable to the debt securities of or within any series (“covenant defeasance”), upon the deposit with the relevant indenture trustee, in trust for such purpose, of money and/or government obligations which through the payment of principal and interest in accordance with their terms will provide money in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on such debt securities to maturity or redemption, as the case may be, and any mandatory sinking fund or analogous payments thereon. As a condition to legal defeasance or covenant defeasance, we must deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of such debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such legal defeasance or covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such legal defeasance or covenant defeasance had not occurred. Such opinion of counsel, in the case of legal defeasance under clause (i) above, must refer to and be based upon a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service or a change in applicable federal income tax law occurring after the date of the relevant indenture. In addition, in the case of either legal defeasance or covenant defeasance, we shall have delivered to the trustee (1) if applicable, an officer’s certificate to the effect that the relevant debt securities exchange(s) have informed us that neither such debt securities nor any other debt securities of the same series, if then listed on any securities exchange, will be delisted as a result of such deposit and (2) an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such legal defeasance or covenant defeasance have been complied with.
 
We may exercise our defeasance option with respect to such debt securities notwithstanding our prior exercise of our covenant defeasance option.
 
Modification and Waiver
 
Under the indentures, unless an accompanying prospectus supplement states otherwise, we and the applicable trustee may supplement the indentures for certain purposes which would not materially adversely affect the interests or rights of the holders of debt securities of a series without the consent of those holders. We and the applicable trustee may also modify the indentures or any supplemental indenture in a manner that affects the interests or rights of the holders of debt securities with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each affected series issued under the indenture. However, the indentures require the consent of each holder of debt securities that would be affected by any modification which would:
 
 
 
reduce the principal amount of debt securities whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;
 
 
 
reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any debt security or, except as provided in any prospectus supplement, alter or waive any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the debt securities;
 
 
 
reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any debt security;
 
 
 
waive a default or event of default in the payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on, the debt securities (except a rescission of acceleration of the debt securities by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding debt securities and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);
 
 
 
make any debt security payable in money other than that stated in the debt securities;
 
 
 
make any change in the provisions of the applicable indenture relating to waivers of past defaults or the rights of holders of the debt securities to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, the debt securities;
 
 
 
waive a redemption payment with respect to any debt security (except as otherwise provided in the applicable prospectus supplement);
 
 
-29-

 

 
 
except in connection with an offer by us to purchase all debt securities, (1) waive certain events of default relating to the payment of dividends or (2) amend certain covenants relating to the payment of dividends and the purchase or redemption of certain equity interests;
 
 
 
make any change to the subordination or ranking provisions of the indenture or the related definitions that adversely affect the rights of any holder; or
 
 
 
make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions.
 
The indentures permit the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series issued under the indenture which is affected by the modification or amendment to waive our compliance with certain covenants contained in the indentures.
 
Payment and Paying Agents
 
Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, payment of interest on a debt security on any interest payment date will be made to the person in whose name a debt security is registered at the close of business on the record date for the interest.
 
Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, principal, interest and premium on the debt securities of a particular series will be payable at the office of such paying agent or paying agents as we may designate for such purpose from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at our option, payment of any interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address appears in the security register.
 
Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, a paying agent designated by us will act as paying agent for payments with respect to debt securities of each series. All paying agents initially designated by us for the debt securities of a particular series will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement. We may at any time designate additional paying agents or rescind the designation of any paying agent or approve a change in the office through which any paying agent acts, except that we will be required to maintain a paying agent in each place of payment for the debt securities of a particular series.
 
All moneys paid by us to a paying agent for the payment of the principal, interest or premium on any debt security which remain unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal, interest or premium has become due and payable will be repaid to us upon request, and the holder of such debt security thereafter may look only to us for payment thereof.
 
Denominations, Registrations and Transfer
 
Unless an accompanying prospectus supplement states otherwise, debt securities will be represented by one or more global certificates registered in the name of a nominee for The Depository Trust Company, or DTC. In such case, each holder’s beneficial interest in the global securities will be shown on the records of DTC and transfers of beneficial interests will only be effected through DTC’s records.
 
A holder of debt securities may only exchange a beneficial interest in a global security for certificated securities registered in the holder’s name if:
 
 
 
we deliver to the trustee notice from DTC that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as depository or that it is no longer a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case, a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 120 days after the date of such notice from DTC;
 
 
 
we in our sole discretion determine that the debt securities (in whole but not in part) should be exchanged for definitive debt securities and deliver a written notice to such effect to the trustee; or
 
 
 
there has occurred and is continuing a default or event of default with respect to the debt securities.
 
If debt securities are issued in certificated form, they will only be issued in the minimum denomination specified in the accompanying prospectus supplement and integral multiples of such denomination. Transfers and exchanges of such debt securities will only be permitted in such minimum denomination. Transfers of debt securities in certificated form may be registered at the trustee’s corporate office or at the offices of any paying agent or trustee appointed by us under the indentures. Exchanges of debt securities for an equal aggregate principal amount of debt securities in different denominations may also be made at such locations.

 
-30-

 
 
Governing Law
 
The indentures and debt securities will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws, except to the extent the Trust Indenture Act is applicable.
 
Trustee
 
The trustee or trustees under the indentures will be named in any applicable prospectus supplement.
 
Conversion or Exchange Rights
 
The prospectus supplement will describe the terms, if any, on which a series of debt securities may be convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock or other debt securities. These terms will include provisions as to whether conversion or exchange is mandatory, at the option of the holder or at our option. These provisions may allow or require the number of shares of our common stock or other securities to be received by the holders of such series of debt securities to be adjusted.
 
 
The following description, together with the additional information we may include in any applicable prospectus supplements, summarizes the material terms and provisions of the warrants that we may offer under this prospectus and the related warrant agreements and warrant certificates. While the terms summarized below will apply generally to any warrants that we may offer, we will describe the particular terms of any series of warrants in more detail in the applicable prospectus supplement. If we so indicate in the prospectus supplement, the terms of any warrants offered under that prospectus supplement may differ from the terms described below. Specific warrant agreements will contain additional important terms and provisions and will be incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement which includes this prospectus.
 
General
 
We may issue warrants for the purchase of common stock and/or debt securities in one or more series. We may issue warrants independently or together with common stock and/or debt securities, and the warrants may be attached to or separate from these securities.
 
We will evidence each series of warrants by warrant certificates that we may issue under a separate agreement. We may enter into the warrant agreement with a warrant agent. Each warrant agent may be a bank that we select which has its principal office in the United States and a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. We will indicate the name and address of any such warrant agent in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of warrants.
 
We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of warrants, including:
 
 
 
the offering price and aggregate number of warrants offered;
 
 
 
the currency for which the warrants may be purchased, if not United States dollars;
 
 
 
if applicable, the designation and terms of the securities with which the warrants are issued and the number of warrants issued with each such security or each principal amount of such security;
 
 
 
if applicable, the date on and after which the warrants and the related securities will be separately transferable;
 
 
 
in the case of warrants to purchase debt securities, the principal amount of debt securities purchasable upon exercise of one warrant and the price at, and currency, if not United States dollars, in which, this principal amount of debt securities may be purchased upon such exercise;
 
 
 
in the case of warrants to purchase common stock, the number of shares of common stock purchasable upon the exercise of one warrant and the price at which these shares may be purchased upon such exercise;
 
 
 
the effect of any merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of our business on the warrant agreement and the warrants;
 
 
-31-

 

 
 
the terms of any rights to redeem or call the warrants;
 
 
 
any provisions for changes to or adjustments in the exercise price or number of securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants;
 
 
 
the dates on which the right to exercise the warrants will commence and expire;
 
 
 
the manner in which the warrant agreement and warrants may be modified;
 
 
 
federal income tax consequences of holding or exercising the warrants;
 
 
 
the terms of the securities issuable upon exercise of the warrants; and
 
 
 
any other specific terms, preferences, rights or limitations of or restrictions on the warrants.
 
Before exercising their warrants, holders of warrants will not have any of the rights of holders of the securities purchasable upon such exercise, including:
 
 
 
in the case of warrants to purchase debt securities, the right to receive payments of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the debt securities purchasable upon exercise or to enforce covenants in the applicable indenture; or
 
 
 
in the case of warrants to purchase common stock, the right to receive dividends, if any, or, payments upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up or to exercise voting rights, if any.
 
Exercise of Warrants
 
Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase the securities that we specify in the applicable prospectus supplement at the exercise price that we describe in the applicable prospectus supplement. Unless we otherwise specify in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants at any time up to 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on the expiration date that we set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will become void.
 
Holders of the warrants may exercise the warrants by delivering the warrant certificate representing the warrants to be exercised together with specified information, and paying the required amount to the warrant agent in immediately available funds, as provided in the applicable prospectus supplement. We will set forth on the reverse side of the warrant certificate and in the applicable prospectus supplement the information that the holder of the warrant will be required to deliver to the warrant agent.
 
Upon receipt of the required payment and the warrant certificate properly completed and duly executed at the corporate trust office of the warrant agent or any other office indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, we will issue and deliver the securities purchasable upon such exercise. If fewer than all of the warrants represented by the warrant certificate are exercised, then we will issue a new warrant certificate for the remaining amount of warrants. If we so indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, holders of the warrants may surrender securities as all or part of the exercise price for warrants.
 
Enforceability of Rights by Holders of Warrants
 
Any warrant agent will act solely as our agent under the applicable warrant agreement and will not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with any holder of any warrant. A single bank or trust company may act as warrant agent for more than one issue of warrants. A warrant agent will have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by us under the applicable warrant agreement or warrant, including any duty or responsibility to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise, or to make any demand upon us. Any holder of a warrant may, without the consent of the related warrant agent or the holder of any other warrant, enforce by appropriate legal action its right to exercise, and receive the securities purchasable upon exercise of, its warrants.
 
If a warrant holder exercises only part of the warrants represented by a single certificate, the warrant agent will issue a new warrant certificate for any warrants not exercised. Unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, no fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of warrants, but we will pay the cash value of any fractional shares otherwise issuable.
 
The exercise price and the number of shares of common stock for which each warrant can be exercised will be adjusted upon the occurrence of events described in the warrant agreement, including the issuance of a common stock dividend or a combination, subdivision or reclassification of common stock.

 
-32-

 
 
Unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, no adjustment will be required until cumulative adjustments require an adjustment of at least 1% in the exercise price. From time to time, we may reduce the exercise price as may be provided in the warrant agreement.
 
Unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, if we enter into any consolidation, merger, or sale or conveyance of our property as an entirety, the holder of each outstanding warrant will have the right to acquire the kind and amount of shares, other securities, property or cash receivable by a holder of the number of shares of common stock into which the warrants were exercisable immediately prior to the occurrence of the event.
 
Modification of the Warrant Agreement
 
The warrant agreements may permit us and the warrant agent, if any, without the consent of the warrant holders, to supplement or amend the agreement in the following circumstances:
 
 
 
to cure any ambiguity;
 
 
 
to correct or supplement any provision which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions; or
 
 
 
to add new provisions regarding matters or questions that we and the warrant agent may deem necessary or desirable and which do not adversely affect the interests of the warrant holders.
 
 
We may issue units comprised of one or more of the other securities described in this prospectus in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder of each security included in the unit. Thus, the holder of a unit will have the rights and obligations of a holder of each included security. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date or occurrence.
 
The applicable prospectus supplement may describe:
 
 
 
the designation and terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately;
 
 
 
any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units; and
 
 
 
whether the units will be issued in fully registered or global form.
 
The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any units. The preceding description and any description of units in the applicable prospectus supplement does not purport to be complete and is subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the unit agreement and, if applicable, collateral arrangements and depository arrangements relating to such units.
 
 
We may sell the securities described in this prospectus through underwriters or dealers, through agents, or directly to one or more purchasers or through a combination of these methods. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of the offering of the securities, including:
 
 
 
the name or names of any underwriters, if any, and if required, any dealers or agents, and the amount of securities underwritten or purchased by each of them, if any;
 
 
 
the public offering price or purchase price of the securities from us and the net proceeds to us from the sale of the securities;
 
 
 
any underwriting discounts and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation;
 
 
 
any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and
 
 
 
any securities exchange or market on which the securities may be listed.
 
We may distribute the securities from time to time in one or more transactions at:

 
-33-

 
 
 
 
a fixed price or prices, which may be changed;
 
 
 
market prices prevailing at the time of sale;
 
 
 
varying prices determined at the time of sale related to such prevailing market prices; or
 
 
 
negotiated prices.
 
Only underwriters named in the prospectus supplement will be underwriters of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement.
 
If we use underwriters in the sale, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account and may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. We may offer the securities to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or by underwriters without a syndicate. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may change from time to time.
 
If we use a dealer in the sale of the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus or any prospectus supplement, the securities will be sold directly to the dealer, as principal. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.
 
We may sell the securities directly or through agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offering and sale of securities and we will describe any commissions we may pay the agent in the applicable prospectus supplement.
 
We may authorize agents or underwriters to solicit offers by institutional investors to purchase securities from us at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. We will describe the conditions to these contracts and the commissions we must pay for solicitation of these contracts in the applicable prospectus supplement.
 
In connection with the sale of the securities, underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation from us or from purchasers of the securities for whom they act as agents in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. Underwriters may sell the securities to or through dealers, and those dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the securities, and any institutional investors or others that purchase securities directly and then resell the securities, may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts or commissions received by them from us and any profit on the resale of the securities by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.
 
We may provide agents and underwriters with indemnification against particular civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribution with respect to payments that the agents or underwriters may make with respect to such liabilities. Agents and underwriters may engage in transactions with, or perform services for, us in the ordinary course of business.
 
In addition, we may enter into derivative transactions with third parties (including the writing of options), or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with such a transaction, the third parties may, pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement. If so, the third party may use securities borrowed from us or others to settle such sales and may use securities received from us to close out any related short positions. We may also loan or pledge securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement to third parties, who may sell the loaned securities or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged securities pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement or in a post-effective amendment.

To facilitate an offering of a series of securities, persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the market price of the securities. This may include over-allotments or short sales of the securities, which involves the sale by persons participating in the offering of more securities than have been sold to them by us. In those circumstances, such persons would cover such over-allotments or short positions by purchasing in the open market or by exercising the over-allotment option granted to those persons. In addition, those persons may stabilize or maintain the price of the securities by bidding for or purchasing securities in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to underwriters or dealers participating in any such offering may be reclaimed if securities sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Such transactions, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. We make no representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above, if implemented, may have on the price of our securities.
 
 
Our ratio of earnings to fixed charges for each of the five most recently completed fiscal years and any required interim periods will each be specified in a prospectus supplement or in a document we file with the SEC and incorporate by reference pertaining to the issuance, if any, by us of debt securities in the future.
 
 
Certain legal matters as to United States federal and New York law and the validity of the securities registered and certain other legal matters as to Delaware law will be passed upon for us by Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
 
Our Certificate of Incorporation provide that we may indemnify our directors and officers to the full extent permitted by Delaware law.  We have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding (other than an action by, or in the right of, the corporation), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise against liability incurred in connection with such proceeding, including any appeal, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.  In addition, we have power to indemnify any person, who was or is a party to any proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses and amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of directors, the estimated expense of litigating the proceeding to conclusion, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding, including any appeal.
 
Item 16. Exhibits
 
A list of exhibits filed with this registration statement on Form S-3 is set forth on the Exhibit Index and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 17. Undertakings
 
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
 
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
 
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 
-38-

 
 
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
 
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
 
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
 
 (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
 
(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
 
(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
 
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
 
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
 
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
 
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
 
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
 (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than a payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
(d) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
 
(1) For purposes of determining liability under the Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
(e) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under Section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.
