Amended and Restated Merger Agreement
 
As previously announced, on August 6, 2010, GSME Acquisition Partners I (“GSME”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with GSME Acquisition Partners I Sub Limited (“GSME Sub”), Plastec International Holdings Limited (“Plastec”), and each of Sun Yip Industrial Company Limited (BVI) (“Sun Yip”), Tiger Power Industries Limited (BVI) (“Tiger”), Expert Rank Limited (BVI) (“Expert”), Fine Colour Limited (BVI) (“Fine Colour” and together with Sun Yip, Tiger and Expert, collectively the “Insiders”), Cathay Plastic Limited (BVI) (“Cathay”), Greatest Sino Holdings Limited (BVI) (“Greatest”), Colourful Asia International Limited (BVI) (“Colourful”) and Top Universe Management Limited (BVI) (“Top” and together with Greatest and Colourful, collectively the “Investors”).  The Insiders, Cathay and the Investors are the sole shareholders of Plastec (together, the “Plastec Shareholders”).  Upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, GSME Sub will be merged with and into Plastec, with Plastec surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of GSME (the “Merger”).
 
In connection with the Merger, Plastec has completed the audit of its financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2010.  Following completion of the audit, the parties entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Amended and Restated Merger Agreement”) to, among other matters, reflect the completion of the audit and to revise the terms of the merger consideration to be paid to the Plastec Shareholders.
 
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Merger, the Plastec Shareholders will now be entitled to receive up to an aggregate of 16,778,571 GSME ordinary shares (“GSME Shares”), of which 7,054,583 shares shall be issued to the Plastec Shareholders on the closing of the Merger and the remaining 9,723,988 shares (the “Earnout Shares”) will be issued to the Plastec Shareholders as follows:
 
·  
up to an aggregate of 2,944,767 Earnout Shares will be issued if Plastec’s 2011 Net Income (as defined in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement) equals or exceeds HKD$130,700,000, which is the equivalent of approximately US$16,756,410 based on the exchange rate of 7.8:1 on the date the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement was executed (the “Exchange Rate”);
 
·  
up to an aggregate of 3,389,610 Earnout Shares will be issued if Plastec’s 2012 Net Income equals or exceeds HKD$176,000,000, which is the equivalent of approximately US$22,564,103 based on the Exchange Rate; and
 
·  
up to an aggregate of 3,389,611 Earnout Shares will be issued if Plastec’s 2013 Net Income equals or exceeds HKD$250,000,000, which is the equivalent of approximately US$32,051,282 based on the Exchange Rate.
 
If Plastec’s Net Income for fiscal year 2011 or 2012 is 80% or more of the Net Income target for 2011 or 2012, respectively, or if its Net Income for fiscal year 2013 is 70% or more of the Net Income target for 2013, the Plastec Shareholders will be entitled to be issued a portion of the applicable Earnout Shares based on a pro-rating mechanism set forth in the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, with the balance of any unearned Earnout Shares being deferred to a subsequent year to be earned in the event the subsequent applicable Net Income targets are met (including by way of the pro-rating mechanism, if Plastec comes within specified percentages of the applicable Net Income targets set forth above).  Additionally, Earnout Shares allocated to a later year will be issued in an earlier year if the Net Income target for the later year is achieved in the earlier year (again, including by way of the pro-rating mechanism set forth above), and Earnout Shares allocated to an earlier year but not issued in such earlier year may be issued in a later year if the later year’s Net Income target is achieved (again, including by way of the pro-rating mechanism set forth above).
 

 
Sale Restrictions
 
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement, the Plastec Shareholders have now agreed that, until April 30, 2013, Sun Yip and Tiger must hold a minimum of the lesser of (i) 20% of the outstanding GSME Shares at the Closing (after taking into account conversions and purchases of GSME Shares as described above), which amount will not exceed 4,315,714 shares or (ii) the number of GSME Shares actually delivered to Sun Yip and Tiger under the Merger Agreement (including any Earnout Shares).
 
Future Dividends
 
GSME and Plastec have indicated that following consummation of the Merger, GSME intends to declare regular annual cash dividends equal to 30% of Plastec’s yearly Net Income.  However, the actual payment of such future dividends will be entirely within the sole discretion of GSME’s board of directors at such times and will be dependent upon the combined company’s revenues and earnings, capital requirements and general financial condition.
