Response of the Office of Chief Counsel
Division of Corporation Finance

Re:

Chai-Na-Ta Corp.
Incoming letter dated November 14, 2012

Based on the facts presented, the Division will not object if Chai-Na-Ta does not file future periodic reports under Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In reaching this position, we particularly note the following:

  • Chai-Na-Ta's stockholders approved the winding up, liquidation and dissolution of Chai-Na-Ta;
  • Chai-Na-Ta will submit reports on Form 6-K to disclose any material events relating to its winding up and dissolution, including any claims that are asserted against Chai-Na-Ta and its shareholders pursuant to Section 226 of the Canada Business Corporations Act, until such time as Chai-Na-Ta is eligible to file a Form 15;
  • Chai-Na-Ta will submit a report on Form 6-K when the time for asserting claims under Section 226 of the Canada Business Corporations Act has expired;
  • Chai-Na-Ta is current and timely in its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act;
  • Chai-Na-Ta filed its articles of dissolution with the Director of Corporations Canada and the effective date of the dissolution was September 26, 2012;
  • There is no trading in Chai-Na-Ta's securities; and
  • Chai-Na-Ta's transfer agent has closed Chai-Na-Ta's stock transfer books and discontinued recording transfers of Chai-Na-Ta's stock.

This position is based on the representations made to the Division in your letter. Any different facts or conditions might require the Division to reach a different conclusion. Further, this response expresses the Division's position on enforcement action only and does not express any legal conclusions on the questions presented.

Sincerely,

Matt S. McNair
Special Counsel
