You should obtain and read the information described below under the headings “Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference” and “Where You Can Find More Information” in order to have all the important information about the Company.
THE COMPANY
EastBridge Investment Group Corporation (formally ATC Technology Corporation) (“EastBridge”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Arizona on June 25, 2001. The Company’s principle activity up through June 30, 2005 was to manufacture mobile entertainment products that provide a means to play video game consoles made by Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo, in the car, RV, SUV, van or boat with attachable viewing monitors.
On August 23, 2002, we entered into an agreement with Providential Holding, Inc. (“Providential”) to sell all the issued and outstanding shares of EastBridge. For consideration, Providential agreed to deliver (i) $250,000 in non-interest bearing promissory notes, payable 270 days after closing, (ii) $250,000 in non-interest bearing promissory notes, payable 180 days after closing, (iii) 3,000,000 shares of restricted stock of EastBridge with an option of additional shares to be issued after 270 days if the stock price does not reach $0.30 and (iv) 1,000,000 shares of restricted stock of Providential with an option of additional shares to be issued after one year if the stock price does not reach $0.30. The transaction between the original stockholders and Providential was consummated as of October 17, 2003. On June 30, 2005 the Company and Providential, agreed to a financial and ownership restructuring and executed a formal agreement to return the majority ownership of EastBridge to its original stockholders in exchange for a forgiveness of notes and obligations owed to the Company and its original stockholders. The total amount of the debt forgiven was $1,932,617 and is recorded as paid-in capital by the majority original stockholders in the 2005 financial statement. As a result of the re-structuring, Providential has become a minority stock holder and the original stockholders of the Company have become the majority stockholders as a group.
In 2005, EastBridge decided to exit the mobile video game market and dedicate our activities to providing investment related services in Asia, with a strong focus on the high GDP growth countries, such as China and India. EastBridge will initially concentrate on the growing investment opportunities in China (Hong Kong, mainland China, Macao and Taiwan). Its products will be financial services that assist small to medium-size companies obtain capital to grow their business. EastBridge’s financial services are expected to be in the form of joint ventures, wholly foreign owned enterprises, guaranteed return ventures, investment banking, financial advisory services or any other financial services allowed by the local government and in compliance with the United States Securities Exchange Commission regulations. In addition, EastBridge will also provide marketing, sales and strategic planning services for its clients to assist them to enter the United States market.
EastBridge is one of the very few United States companies solely concentrated in marketing financial services to the small to mid-size, but large number, of Asian companies that require financial services to assist them in expanding in their local markets. In the business sectors that EastBridge sees a unique opportunity, EastBridge will form its own foreign subsidiaries with local partners to capture the opportunity.
Financial Services
The Company’s products are financial services that help small-to-medium-sized companies obtain capital to grow their business. The Company’s financial services will be in the form of small public offerings, Joint Ventures, Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprises, assistance with Guaranteed Return Ventures, investment banking, financial advisory services or any other financial services allowed by the local government and in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. Under a Guaranteed Return Venture agreement, EastBridge will invest its intellectual capital in an enterprise through knowledge, or good will. In return, the enterprise will provide a written guarantee that EastBridge will receive a certain percentage of its profits. Further, the enterprise will
3
guarantee that it will pay a specified minimum profit to EastBridge. If the enterprise fails to do so, EastBridge will be entitled to its total profit in any agreed period of interest.
The Company will also provide marketing, sales, and strategic planning services for its clients to assist them in entering the United States market.
EastBridge maintains a company website at: www.EbigCorp.com, the contents of which are not a part of this filing. EastBridge’s business plan is to provide financial services, including public offering guidance, joint venture, and merchant banking advice to small-to-medium-sized businesses in Asia. Through the public offering guidance service, the Company will consult with its clients in investor relations, public relations, and will provide details on marketing, sales, and strategic planning services. Specifically, the Company will provide its clients with valuable information about the U.S. stock market, and its general entry requirements. Further, the Company will advise its clients on the pertinent information about U.S. investors before becoming reporting companies.
EastBridge’s target clients are mostly in the Chinese territories and other Asian countries. EastBridge searches for opportunities to enhance hidden values to our clients. Though we focus on opportunities that can create value for both our shareholders and clients, we cannot provide any assurance that such opportunities will create value for our shareholders, or otherwise increase the value of their investment in the Company.
Products and Marketing
EastBridge’s main business plan is to assist in listing service and advice, and access to joint ventures to businesses in Asia. Our potential income sources are derived from the following
·
Earning fees and stock equities in the companies we represent;
·
Cash income by operating joint ventures with local partners
·
Fees earned in providing merchant banking services to small Asian companies to access US funds.
We will serve as consultants and advisors to these companies to obtain loans, find business partners, and find merger candidates or listing feasibility studies.
RISK FACTORS
The information included and incorporated by reference in this Prospectus contains “forward-looking statements,” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements describe the Company’s plans and beliefs concerning future business conditions and the outlook for the Company based on currently available information. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements due to a number of risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties include the risks discussed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 and in our more recent filings with the SEC which are incorporated by reference in this Prospectus. See “Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference” below.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the Selling Stockholders.
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
This Prospectus relates to Shares that are being registered for reoffers and resales by the Selling Stockholders, all of whom will be either employees, directors, or consultants of the Company who will acquire Shares pursuant to the Plan and in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, following the date of this Prospectus. To date, no Shares have been issued pursuant to the Plan.
4
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Stockholders will be offering and selling all shares offered and sold under this prospectus. Alternatively, the Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, offer the shares through brokers, dealers or agents that may receive customary brokerage compensation in the form of discounts, commissions or concessions from the Selling Stockholders and/or the purchasers of the shares for whom they may act as agent. In effecting sales, broker-dealers that are engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. The Selling Stockholders and any brokers, dealers or agents who participate in the distribution of the shares may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any profits on the sale of the shares by them and any discounts, commissions or concessions received by any broker, dealer or agent might be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. To the extent the Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be underwriters, the Selling Stockholders may be subject to certain statutory liabilities, including, but not limited to, Sections 11, 12 and 17 of the Securities Act.
The Selling Stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale. Sales may be made on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board or other over-the-counter markets. The shares may be sold at then prevailing market prices, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Selling Stockholders may also resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of this rule. The Selling Stockholders may decide not to sell any of the shares offered under this prospectus, and Selling Stockholders may transfer, devise or gift these shares by other means.
Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. If a particular offer of the shares is to be made other than as described herein, a revised prospectus, or prospectus supplement, will, to the extent required, be distributed which will set forth the terms of such offer.
We have agreed to pay the expenses of registering the shares under the Securities Act, including registration and filing fees, printing and duplication expenses, administrative expenses and legal and accounting fees. Each Selling Stockholder will pay its own brokerage, underwriting fees and commissions, and legal fees, if any.
We may suspend the use of this prospectus if we learn of any event that causes this prospectus to include an untrue statement of a material effect or fail to state a material fact required to be stated in the prospectus or necessary to make the statements in the prospectus not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing. If this type of event occurs, a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment, if required, will be distributed to each Selling Stockholder.

Furthermore, the personal liability of the Directors is limited as provided in the Company's Articles of Incorporation.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company 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 of 1933 and is therefore unenforceable

ITEM 9. | 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 of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this 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 this 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 a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement.
Provided, however, that paragraphs (A)(1)(i) and (A)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, 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.
B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement 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.
C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6 or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 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 Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the State of Arizona, this 22nd day of August, 2008.
