ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS
This prospectus constitutes part of the registration statement of Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), utilizing a “shelf” registration or continuous offering process. It omits some of the information contained in the registration statement and reference is made to the registration statement for further information with regard to us and the securities being offered by the selling shareholders. Any statement contained in the prospectus concerning the provisions of any document filed as an exhibit to the registration statement or otherwise filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is not necessarily complete, and in each instance, reference is made to the copy of the document filed.
This prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement or other offering materials do not contain all of the information included in the registration statement as permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC. For further information, we refer you to the registration statement on Form S-3, including its exhibits. We are subject to the
informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and, therefore, file reports and other information with the SEC. Statements contained in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement, or other offering materials about the provisions or contents of any agreement or other document are only summaries. If SEC rules require that any agreement or document be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement, you should refer to
that agreement or document for its complete contents.
You should not assume that the information in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or any other offering materials is accurate as of any date other than the date on the front of each document. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since then.
Unless otherwise indicated in this prospectus or the context otherwise requires, references to “we”, “us”, “China Pharma”, “the Company” or “our Company” refer to China Pharma Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
ABOUT OUR COMPANY
China Pharma Holdings, Inc. (formerly, TS Electronics, Inc. and prior thereto, Softstone, Inc.) was incorporated on January 28, 1999, pursuant to the provisions of the General Corporation Act of the State of Delaware. On May 31, 1999, we merged with Soft Stone Building Products, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation that was a predecessor to our Company’s business. Our initial business operations were conducted at 620 Dallas Drive, Denton TX, 76205. On February 1, 2000, we moved our offices and facilities to Ardmore, OK. In June 2002, we moved our office facilities to Pottsboro, TX. On August 13, 2003, we changed our name to TS Electronics, Inc. On March 15, 2006, we changed our name from TS Electronics, Inc. to China Pharma Holdings, Inc.
On October 19, 2005 we entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Onny Investment Limited (“Onny”), a British Virgin Islands company, and its original stockholders pursuant to which we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Onny from its original stockholders in exchange for 27,499,940 shares of our common stock. Upon the closing of the exchange transaction (the “Exchange Transaction”), Onny became the wholly owned subsidiary of our Company.
Hainan Helpson Medical & Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (“Helpson”) is a foreign-invested enterprise established in Haikou, Hainan Province, People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) on February 25, 1993. On May 25, 2005, Onny acquired all the equity interests in Helpson in exchange for the assumption of obligations to make cash payments to the Helpson shareholders in the form of common stock dividends from Helpson of $4,154,041, the assumption of $4,646,409 of other liabilities and the issuance of non-interest bearing promissory notes totaling $3,413,265 payable three months after Helpson obtains a business license in the PRC as a wholly foreign owned enterprise. Effective on June 21, 2005, Onny became the sole stockholder of Helpson, which became a wholly foreign owned enterprise as defined by PRC law. As of July 4, 2006, Helpson increased its registered capital from RMB 28,000,000 (approximately US$4,101,302) to RMB 60,000,000 (approximately US$8,788,505) and changed its registered address from Unit 8, D Area, Office Hall, Haikou Bonded Zone, Haikou, Hainan Province, China to C09-2, Haikou Bonded Zone, Haikou, Hainan Province, PRC.
Helpson's primary business is the manufacturing, marketing and sales of pharmaceuticals and nutritional supplements. Helpson manufactures and markets products in three major categories: biochemical products, health products and cosmetics. At present, Helpson is manufacturing or ready to manufacture a total of 20 kinds of pharmaceutical products.
Helpson positions itself as a specialty pharmaceutical company with rapidly growing profit that develops, manufactures, and markets treatments for a wide range of high incidence and high mortality conditions in China, including cardio and cerebrovascular diseases, Central Nervous System (CNS) disease, infectious disease, and hepatitis. Helpson's cost-effective, high margin business model is driven by market demand and supported by 8 scalable GMP-certified production lines covering the major dosage forms. In addition, Helpson has a broad and expanding distribution network across 30 Chinese provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions.

NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The statements contained in this Form S-3 that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These include statements about the Company’s expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies for the future, which are indicated by words or phrases such as “anticipate”, “expect”, “intend”, “plan”, “will”, “the Company believes”, “management believes” and similar words or phrases. The forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from results anticipated in these forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to the Company on the date hereof, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.
RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common stock involves risk. You should carefully consider the specific risks discussed or incorporated by reference into the applicable prospectus supplement, together with all the other information contained in the prospectus supplement or incorporated by reference into this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, as amended on Form 10-K/A, and in subsequent filings, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. These risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future or by a prospectus supplement relating to a particular offering of common stock. These risks and uncertainties are not the only risks and uncertainties we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently view as immaterial, may also impair our business. If any of the risks or uncertainties described in our SEC filings or any prospectus supplement or any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline and you might lose all or part of your investment.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock by the selling stockholders. A portion of the shares covered by this prospectus are issuable upon exercise of warrants to purchase our common stock. Upon any exercise of the warrants for cash, the selling stockholders would pay us the exercise price of the warrants. The cash exercise price of the warrants ranges from $2.38 to $3.60 per share of our common stock, subject to adjustment as set forth in the warrants. Some warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis under certain conditions set forth in those warrants. If the warrants are exercised on a cashless basis, we would not receive any cash payment from the selling stockholders upon any exercise of the warrants. Instead, the selling stockholders would satisfy their obligation to pay the exercise price through a formula-based transfer of warrant shares to us.
The selling stockholders will pay any commissions and expenses incurred by the selling stockholders for brokerage, accounting, tax or legal services or any other expenses incurred by the selling stockholders in disposing of the shares. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our auditors.
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
The following table sets forth certain information concerning the resale of the shares of common stock by the Selling Stockholders. Unless otherwise described below, to our knowledge, no selling shareholder nor any of their affiliates has held any position or office with, been employed by or otherwise has had any material relationship with us or our affiliates during the three years prior to the date of this prospectus. Unless otherwise described below, the Selling Stockholders have confirmed to us that they are not broker-dealers or affiliates of a broker-dealer within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act, as amended.
We do not know how long the selling stockholders will hold the shares before selling them or how many shares they will sell, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any of the selling stockholders regarding the sale of any of the resale shares. The shares offered by this prospectus may be offered from time to time by the selling stockholders listed below. Accordingly, no estimate can be given as to the amount or percentage of our common stock that will be held by the Selling Stockholders upon termination of sales pursuant to this prospectus. In addition, the Selling Shareholder identified below may have sold, transferred or disposed of all or a portion of their shares since the date on which they provided the information regarding their holdings in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Individual beneficial ownership of the Selling Stockholders also includes shares of common stock that a person has the right to acquire within 60 days from January 18, 2010. See “Description of Securities –Warrants.”
Percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 42,675,997 shares of our common stock outstanding as of January 18, 2010. Unless otherwise indicated, the Selling Stockholders have the sole power to direct the voting and investment over the shares owned by them. We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are registering the shares of common stock on behalf of the Selling Stockholders. The selling security holders and any of their pledgees, donees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock being offered under this prospectus on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which shares of our common stock are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling security holders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares:
• |
transactions on NYSE AMEX or any other national securities exchange or U.S. inter-dealer system of a registered national securities association on which the common stock may be listed or quoted at the time of sale; |
|
|
|||||
|
|
|
• |
|
|
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
|
|
|
|
|
• |
|
|
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
|
|
|
|
|
• |
|
|
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resales by the broker-dealer for its account; |
|
|
|
|
|
• |
|
|
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
|
|
|
|
|
• |
|
|
privately negotiated transactions; |
|
|
|
|
|
• |
|
|
to cover short sales made after the date that the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the Commission; |
|
|
|
|
|
• |
|
|
broker-dealers may agree with the selling security holders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; |
|
|
|
|
|
• |
|
|
a combination of any of these methods of sale; and |
|
|
|
|
|
• |
|
|
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The shares may also be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended if available, rather than under this prospectus. The selling security holders have the sole and absolute discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of shares if they deem the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time.
The selling security holders may pledge their shares to their brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling security holder defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged shares.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling security holders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling security holders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, which commissions as to a particular broker or dealer may be in excess of customary commissions to the extent permitted by applicable law.
If sales of shares offered under this prospectus are made to broker-dealers as principals, we would be required to file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. In the post-effective amendment, we would be required to disclose the names of any participating broker-dealers and the compensation arrangements relating to such sales.
The selling security holders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares offered under this prospectus may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with these sales. Commissions received by these broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Any broker-dealers or agents that are deemed to be underwriters may not sell shares offered under this prospectus unless and until we set forth the names of the underwriters and the material details of their underwriting arrangements in a supplement to this prospectus or, if required, in a replacement prospectus included in a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
The selling security holders and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares offered under this prospectus will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations under that act, including Regulation M. These provisions may restrict activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by, the selling security holders or any other person. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and other activities with respect to those securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.
If any of the shares of common stock offered for sale pursuant to this prospectus are transferred other than pursuant to a sale under this prospectus, then subsequent holders could not use this prospectus until a post-effective amendment or prospectus supplement is filed, naming such holders. We offer no assurance as to whether any of the selling security holders will sell all or any portion of the shares offered under this prospectus.
We have agreed to pay all fees and expenses we incur incident to the registration of the shares being offered under this prospectus. However, each selling security holder and purchaser is responsible for paying any discounts, commissions and similar selling expenses they incur.
We and the selling security holders have agreed to indemnify one another against certain losses, damages and liabilities arising in connection with this prospectus, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Our board of directors has never declared a dividend.

Each share shall be entitled to the same dividend. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive, ratably, the net assets available to stockholders after payment of all creditors.
All of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. To the extent that additional shares of our Common Stock are issued, the relative interests of existing stockholders will be diluted.

Delaware Anti-Takeover Law
The provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws described below may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or discouraging another person from acquiring control of us.
We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law regulating corporate takeovers. This section prevents Delaware corporations from engaging, under limited circumstances, in a business combination, which includes a merger or sale of more than 10 percent of the corporation’s assets, with any interested stockholder, which is a stockholder who owns 15 percent or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock, as well as affiliates and associates of stockholders, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder unless:
•the transaction is approved by the board of directors before the date the interested stockholder attained that status;
•upon the closing of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the stockholder owned at least 85 percent of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced; or
•on or after the date the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders by at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
A Delaware corporation may opt out of this provision with an express provision in its original certificate of incorporation or an express provision in its certificate of incorporation or bylaws resulting from a stockholders’ amendment approved by at least a majority of the outstanding voting shares. However, we have not opted out of this provision. This provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change-in-control attempts and may discourage attempts to acquire us.
Transfer Agent
The transfer agent for our common stock and preferred stock is Securities Transfer Corporation, 2591 Dallas Parkway, Suite 102, Frisco Texas 75034.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits our board of directors to indemnify any person against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding in which such person is made a party by reason of his or her being or having been a director, officer, employee, or agent of us, or serving or having served, at our request, as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. The statute provides that indemnification pursuant to its provisions is not exclusive of other rights of indemnification to which a person may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.
We have adopted provisions in our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and amended and restated bylaws that limit or eliminate the personal liability of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as it now exists or may in the future be amended, and against all expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in connection with their service for or on behalf of the company.
At present, we are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officer, employees or agents in which indemnification would be required or permitted. We believe provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.
In any underwriting agreement we enter into in connection with the sale of common stock and warrants being registered hereby, the underwriters will agree to indemnify, under certain conditions, us, our directors, our officers and persons who control us within the meaning of the Securities Act, against certain liabilities.
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, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Incorporated by reference to Exhibit 5.1 to Form SB-2 (No. 333-141734) filed with Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2007, and Exhibit 5.1 to Form S-1 (No. 333-152272) filed with Securities and Exchange Commission on July 11, 2008. |
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;
(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 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.
(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 (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section 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 Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act 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, 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 to any purchaser:
(A) 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 this Registration Statement; and
(B) 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 this 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 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that 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, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, 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, as amended, 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 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(d) The undersigned registrant hereby further undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance under 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, 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.
