8.01. Other Events
The registrant has updated its
January 2009 investor presentation filed by the registrant as Exhibit 99.1 to
the registrant’s Form 8-K on January 26, 2009. The registrant, China Networks International
Holdings, Ltd. (“China Networks”), CN Media, and/or Chardan Capital Markets, as
financial advisor (“Chardan”), expect to utilize such presentation in meetings
with investors regarding the registrant’s proposed business combination with
China Networks and CN Media. The April 2009 investor
presentation is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated by
reference herein.
Alyst , China Networks and CN Media
and their respective directors and executive officers, and Chardan and its
partners and directors, may be deemed to be
participants in the solicitation of proxies for the special meeting of Alyst
stockholders to be held to approve, among other things, the proposed business
combination with China Networks. In connection with the pending
transaction, China Networks has filed with the SEC a Registration Statement on
Form S-4, File No. 333-157026. The stockholders of Alyst are urged to read the
Registration Statement and the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus and, when
available, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, as well as all other
relevant documents filed or to be filed with the SEC, because they will contain
important information about China Networks, Alyst and the proposed transaction.
The final proxy statement/prospectus will be mailed to stockholders of Alyst
after the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC.
Stockholders
will be able to obtain a copy of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and
any other relevant filed documents at no charge from the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission’s website (www.sec.gov). These documents will
also be available from Alyst at no charge, once filed with the SEC, by directing
a request to 233 East 69th Street, #6J, New York, New York 10021.
