Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Stock Transfer Agreement regarding Guannan Zhongyuan Natural Gas Co., Ltd.

On June 20, 2007, Beijing Zhong Ran Wei Ye Gas Co., Ltd. (“Beijing Gas”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People's Republic of China (the “PRC”) and a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Sino Gas International Holdings, Inc., a Utah corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Stock Transfer Agreement with the shareholders of Guannan Zhongyuan Natural Gas Co., Ltd., a limited liability company organized under the laws of the PRC (“Guannan”), pursuant to which Beijing Gas agreed to acquire all the capital stock of Guannan for a purchase price of 7,500,000 RMB (approximately $987,000) in cash. Guannan is a regional natural gas distributor and developer of natural gas distribution networks in China’s Jiangsu Province. Guannan’s distribution network includes 3,951 connected households, and its annual revenues from recurring gas sales are approximately $197,000. A proposed construction project in Guannan County, the area in which Guannan operates, is expected to generate approximately $249,975 and $349,850 in revenues from recurring gas sales in 2007 and 2008, respectively.

Under the agreement, Beijing Gas will pay the purchase price for the acquisition in installments. The first payment, in the amount of 2,000,000 RMB, was made on June 20, 2007. The second payment, in the amount of 5,000,000 RMB, is due within 15 business days after completion of all requisite governmental and legal procedures by the selling stockholders of Guannan. The final payment, of 500,000 RMB, is due within six months after the second payment. Title to the Guannan stock will be transferred to Beijing Gas within 20 business days after receipt by the Guannan sellers of the first payment.  Once title to the stock has been transferred, Guannan will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Beijing Gas.

The acquisition of Guannan includes all of the assets and customer relationships of Guannan, including concession rights to be the exclusive natural gas distributor in Guannan County, Jiangsu Province, for a period of 30 years beginning June 29, 2007.
