DT Asia Investments Limited (NASDAQ: CADT; CADTW; CADTU; CADTR) (“DT Asia” or the “Company”) today announced that, at its special meeting in lieu of an annual meeting of shareholders held on March 31, 2016, the Company’s shareholders approved, among other things, a proposal to extend the date before which the Company must complete a business combination from April 6, 2016 to July 6, 2016 (the “Extension”). In connection with the special meeting, 5,255,657 of the Company’s public shares (approximately 77% of the outstanding public shares) were validly presented to the Company for redemption.

The Extension is subject to the receipt by the Company from DeTiger Holdings Limited (“Sponsor”) of approximately $96,000 (the “Contribution”), which amount is equal to $0.06 for each of the 1,604,406 public shares of the Company that were not redeemed in connection with the Extension and which will be deposited into the Company’s trust account for the benefit of holders of the remaining public shares. The Sponsor has advised the Company that it will promptly fund the Contribution. If the Sponsor does not make the Contribution, the Company will abandon the Extension and redeem all public shares for their pro rata portions of the funds currently in the trust account and, promptly following such redemption, dissolve and liquidate. After receipt of the Contribution and redemption of the public shares in connection with the Extension, the pro rata portion of the funds available in the trust account for the public shares that were not redeemed in connection with the Extension will increase from approximately $10.20 per share to approximately $10.26 per share.

Additional information regarding the results of the special meeting, the Contribution and the Extension will be included in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than four business days following the date of the special meeting.
