        C. Material Contracts
 
On December 16, 2010, the Company consummated its merger with Plastec pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement (as defined in Item 1A. of this shell company report). The material terms of the Merger Agreement are contained in the Proxy Statement in the sections entitled “The Merger Proposal” beginning on page 35 of the Proxy Statement and “The Merger Agreement” beginning on page 47 of the Proxy Statement, and are hereby incorporated by reference, as well as the Company’s Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 9, 2010.

At the closing of the merger (the “Closing”), Merger Sub merged with and into Plastec with Plastec surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  In connection with the merger, the Company issued to the former shareholders of Plastec an aggregate of 7,054,583 ordinary shares.   In addition, the former shareholders of Plastec will be issued up to an additional 9,723,988 shares if certain targets are met for the years 2011 through 2013.

After payment to converting shareholders, approximately $10 million was disbursed from the trust account to the Company.  After payment of transaction related expenses, including the payment of an additional $0.30 per share to converting shareholders, it is expected that approximately $7.4 million will be made available for the Company’s continued working capital requirements.  The Company was supposed to obtain the funds to pay the additional $0.30 per share by drawing down on a letter of credit posted by Cohen & Company Securities, LLC in connection with the Company’s initial public offering.  The Company was then to issue to Cohen & Company Securities, LLC an interest-bearing promissory note in the amount drawn down.   The Company determined instead to pay the additional $0.30 per share rather than drawing on the letter of credit to save interest payments that would have been required to be paid to Cohen & Company Securities, LLC under the promissory note.  Additionally, in connection with the closing, the Company entered into an agreement with the underwriters from its initial public offering whereby such underwriters agreed that the deferred underwriting discounts and commissions they were entitled to be paid upon consummation of the merger would no longer be owed.

At the Closing, the Company entered into an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) with certain of the former shareholders of Plastec.  Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, 10%, or an aggregate of 472,796, of the shares issued to the former shareholders of Plastec (except Cathay Plastic Limited (BVI)) were placed in escrow (the “Escrow Fund”).  The shares shall be held in the Escrow Fund until thirty days after the Company has filed its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2011.  The shares held in the Escrow Fund are to be used to indemnify the Company and Plastec for losses suffered by either resulting from the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Plastec or its former shareholders contained in the Merger Agreement or delivered pursuant thereto, or from the breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant or agreement of Plastec or its former shareholders contained in the Merger Agreement.

Additionally, the Company’s founders agreed that a portion of the ordinary shares and warrants held by them would be held in escrow subject to forfeiture and cancellation in the event the Company did not raise up to approximately $20 million in equity financings by December 16, 2011.

Effective at the Closing, amendments to certain employment agreements were entered into between a subsidiary of Plastec and each of Kin Sun Sze-To, the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, Chin Hien Tan, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, and Ho Leung Ning, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the “Employment Agreements”) to provide for their  services to be extended to cover the Company with no additional compensation in terms of base salary.  The material terms of the Employment Agreements, as amended, are contained in the Proxy Statement in the section entitled “Management of GSME Following the Merger – Executive Compensation” beginning on page 105 of the Proxy Statement and are hereby incorporated by reference.

PLASTEC INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS LIMTIED                                                                                 
(incorporated in the British Virgin Islands with limited liability)
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Plastec International Holdings Limited and subsidiaries (the "Group") as of 30 April 2010, and the related consolidated statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the year ended 30 April 2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Group's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Group is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Plastec International Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries at 30 April 2010, and the results of the Group's operations and cash flows for the year ended 30 April 2010, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended 30 April 2010
1. 
GENERAL INFORMATION

The address of its registered office is Sea Meadow House, Blackburne Highway, P.O. Box 116, Road Town, Tortola, BVI and its principal place of business is Unit 01, 21/F., Aitken Vanson Centre, 61 Hoi Yuen Road, Kwun Tong, Kowloon, Hong Kong.
 
The principal activity of the Company is investment holding. The principal activities of the Company's subsidiaries are manufacturing of plastic parts of electronic appliances. Details of the Company's subsidiaries are set out in Note 14 to the financial statements. The Company and its subsidiaries are referred to as the "Group" hereafter.
 
The financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2010 were approved for issue by the board of directors on 15 December 2010.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1
Basis of preparation
The financial statements on pages 2 to 36 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") which collective term includes all applicable individual International Financial Reporting Standards and Interpretations issued by the IASB.
 
The significant accounting policies that have been used in the preparation of these financial statements are summarised below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented unless otherwise stated.
 
The financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis. The measurement bases are fully described in the accounting policies below. The adoption of new or amended IFRSs and the impacts on the Group's financial statements, if any, are disclosed in Note 3.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
2.1         Basis of preparation (Continued)
It should be noted that accounting estimates and assumptions are used in preparation of the financial statements. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge and judgement of current events and actions, actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 4.
 
2.2         Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (see Note 2.3 below) made up to 30 April.
 
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are excluded from consolidation from the date that control ceases.
 
Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains and losses on transactions between group companies are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Where unrealised losses on intra-group asset sales are reversed on consolidation, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment from the Group's perspective. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
 
2.3         Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities over which the Group has the power to control the financial and operating policies so as to obtain benefits from their activities. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity.
 
In consolidated financial statements, acquisition of subsidiaries (other than those under common control) is accounted for by applying the purchase method. This involves the estimation of fair value of all identifiable assets and liabilities, including contingent liabilities of the subsidiary, at the acquisition date, regardless of whether or not they were recorded in the financial statements of the subsidiary prior to acquisition. On initial recognition, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary are included in the consolidated statement of financial position at their fair values, which are also used as the bases for subsequent measurement in accordance with the Group's accounting policies.

2.4         Foreign currency translation
These financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollars (HK$), which is also the functional currency of the Company.
 
In the individual financial statements of the consolidated entities, foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the individual entity using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign exchange rates ruling at the reporting date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the reporting date retranslation of monetary assets and liabilities are recognised in the profit or loss.
 
Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the date when the fair value was determined and are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
 
In the consolidated financial statements, all individual financial statements of foreign operations, originally presented in a currency different from the Group's presentation currency, have been converted into Hong Kong dollars. Assets and liabilities have been translated into Hong Kong dollars at the closing rates at the reporting date. Income and expenses have been converted into the Hong Kong dollars at the exchange rates ruling at the transaction dates, or at the average rates over the reporting period provided that the exchange rates do not fluctuate significantly. Any differences arising from this procedure have been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated separately in the exchange reserve in equity.
 
When a foreign operation is sold, such exchange differences are reclassified from equity to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale.
 
2.5         Revenue recognition
Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods, net of rebates and discounts. Provided it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue and costs, if applicable, can be measured reliably, revenue is recognised as follows:
 
 
-
Sales of goods are recognised upon transfer of the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the customer. This is usually taken as the time when the goods are delivered and the customer has accepted the goods.
 
 
-
Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method.
 
 
-
Dividend is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
2.6
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress, are stated at acquisition cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The cost of an asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use.
  
Depreciation is provided to write off the cost less their residual values over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method, at the following rates per annum:
 
Buildings
 
5%
Plant and machineries
 
10%-33.5%
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
 
5%-20%
Leasehold improvements
 
15%-20%
Computer equipment
 
20%-33.33%
Motor vehicles
 
20%
Moulds
 
20%-50%
 
The assets' estimated residual values, depreciation methods and estimated useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
 
Construction in progress represents assets in the course of construction for production or for its own use purpose. It is stated at cost less any impairment loss and is not depreciated. Cost includes direct costs incurred during the periods on construction, installation and testing plus interest charges arising from borrowings used to finance these assets during the construction period, if any. Construction in progress is reclassified to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment and depreciation commences when the construction work is completed and the asset is ready for use.
 
The gain or loss arising on retirement or disposal is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the profit or loss.
 
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other costs, such as repairs and maintenance are charged to the profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.

2.7
Prepaid lease payments
Upfront payments made to acquire land held under an operating lease are stated at costs less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. The determination if an arrangement is or contains a lease and the lease is an operating lease is detailed in Note 2.9. Amortisation is calculated on a straight line basis over the term of the lease/right of use except where an alternative basis is more representative of the time pattern of benefits to be derived by the Group from use of the land.
 
2.8
Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group's property, plant and equipment, prepaid lease payments and the Company's interests in subsidiaries are subject to impairment testing.
 
For the purposes of assessing impairment, where an asset does not generate cash inflows largely independent from those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows independently (i.e. a cash-generating unit). As a result, some assets are tested individually for impairment and some are tested at cash-generating unit level.
 
An impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately for the amount by which the asset's or cash-generating unit's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount under another standard, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease under that standard. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value, reflecting market conditions less costs to sell and value in use, based on an internal discounted cash flow evaluation.
 
An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount and only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
 
2.9
Leases
An arrangement, comprising a transaction or a series of transactions, is or contains a lease if the Group determines that the arrangement conveys a right to use a specific asset or assets for an agreed period of time in return for a payment or a series of payments. Such a determination is made based on an evaluation of the substance of the arrangement and is regardless of whether the arrangement takes the legal form of a lease.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
2.9
Leases (Continued)
(i)       Classification of assets leased to the Group
Assets that are held by the Group under leases which transfer to the Group substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as being held under finance leases. Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the Group are classified as operating leases.
 
(ii)      Assets acquired under finance leases
Where the Group acquires the use of assets under finance leases, the amounts representing the fair value of the leased asset, or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments of such assets, are included in property, plant and equipment and the corresponding liabilities, net of finance charges, are recorded as obligation under finance leases.
 
Subsequent accounting for assets held under finance lease agreements corresponds to those applied to comparable acquired assets. The corresponding finance lease liability is reduced by lease payments less finance charges.
 
Finance charges implicit in the lease payments are charged to profit or loss over the period of the leases so as to produce an approximately constant periodic rate of charge on the remaining balance of the obligations for each accounting period. Contingent rentals are charged to profit or loss in the accounting period in which they are incurred.
 
(iii)     Operating lease charges as the lessee
Where the Group has the right to use of assets held under operating leases, payments made under the leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the lease terms except where an alternative basis is more representative of the time pattern of benefits to be derived from the leased assets. Lease incentives received are recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of the aggregate net lease payments made. Contingent rental are charged to profit or loss in the accounting period in which they are incurred.
 
2.10
Financial assets
The Group's accounting policies for financial assets other than interests in subsidiaries are set out below. Financial assets are classified into the categories of loans and receivables and cash and cash equivalents.
 
Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition depending on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired and where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at every reporting date.
 
All financial assets are recognised when, and only when, the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
2.10
Financial assets (Continued)
Derecognition of financial assets occurs when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments expire or are transferred and substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred.
 
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Amortised cost is calculated taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and includes fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate and transaction cost.
 
Impairment of financial assets
At each reporting date, financial assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any objective evidence of impairment.
 
Objective evidence of impairment of individual financial assets includes observable data that comes to the attention of the Group about one or more of the following loss events:
 
-
Significant financial difficulty of the debtor;
 
-
A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
 
-
It becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
 
-
Significant changes in the technological, market, economic or legal environment that have an adverse effect on the debtor; and
 
-
A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.
 
Loss events in respect of a group of financial assets include observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from the group of financial assets. Such observable data includes but not limited to adverse changes in the payment status of debtors in the group and, national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
2.10
Financial assets (Continued)
Impairment of financial assets (Continued)
If any such evidence exists, the impairment loss is measured and recognised as follows:
 
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables carried at amortised cost has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate (i.e. the effective interest rate computed at initial recognition). The amount of the loss is recognised in profit or loss of the period in which the impairment occurs.
 
If, in subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed to the extent that it does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset exceeding what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognised at the date the impairment is reversed. The amount of the reversal is recognised in profit or loss of the period in which the reversal occurs.
 
2.11
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials computed using the first-in first-out method, and in the case of work in progress and finished goods, comprise direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and applicable selling expenses.
 
2.12
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank and in hand and demand deposits with banks with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
 
2.13
Accounting for income taxes
Income tax comprises current tax and deferred tax.
 
Current income tax assets and/or liabilities comprise those obligations to, or claims from, fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting period, that are unpaid at the reporting date. They are calculated according to the tax rates and tax laws applicable to the fiscal periods to which they relate, based on the taxable profit for the year. All changes to current tax assets or liabilities are recognised as a component of tax expense in the profit or loss.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
2.13
Accounting for income taxes (Continued)
Deferred tax is calculated using the liability method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, tax losses available to be carried forward as well as other unused tax credits, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit, including existing taxable temporary differences, will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised.
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither taxable nor accounting profit or loss.
 
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on interests in subsidiaries, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
 
Deferred tax is calculated, without discounting, at tax rates that are expected to apply in the period the liability is settled or the asset realised, provided they are enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
 
Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognised in profit or loss, or in other comprehensive income or directly in equity if they relate to items that are charged or credited to other comprehensive income or directly to equity.
 
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are presented in net if, and only if,
 
 
(a)
the Group has the legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts; and
 
 
(b)
intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The Group presents deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities in net if, and only if,
 
 
(a)
the entity has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
 
 
(b)
the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either:
 
(i) 
the same taxable entity; or
 
 
(ii)
different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
 
2.14
Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Share capital is determined using the nominal value of shares that have been issued.
 
2.15
Employee benefits
Retirement benefits
Retirement benefits to employees are provided through defined contribution plans.
 
The Group operates a defined contribution retirement benefit plan under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance, for all of its employees who are eligible to participate in the MPF Scheme. Contributions are made based on a percentage of the employees' basic salaries.
 
The employees of the Company's subsidiaries which operate in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC") are required to participate in a central pension scheme operated by the local municipal government. The subsidiary is required to contribute certain percentage of its payroll costs to the central pension scheme.
 
Contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss as employees render services during the year. The Group's obligations under these plans is limited to the fixed percentage contributions payable.
 
Short-term employee benefits
Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for annual leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the reporting date.
 
Non-accumulating compensated absences such as sick leave and maternity leave are not recognised until the time of leave.

Borrowing costs
All borrowing costs are expensed as incurred.
 
2.17
Financial liabilities
The Group's financial liabilities include trade and other payables and accruals, borrowings and dividend payable.
 
Financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All interest related charges are recognised as an expense in finance costs in the profit or loss.
 
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
 
Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amount is recognised in the profit or loss.
 
Trade and other payables and accruals and dividend payable are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.
 
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
 
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
 
Obligation under finance leases are measured at initial value less the capital element of lease repayments. (Note 2.9)
 
2.18
Financial guarantees issued
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer (or guarantor) to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument.

Financial guarantees issued (Continued)
Where the Group issues a financial guarantee, the fair value of the guarantee is initially recognised as deferred income within other payables. Where consideration is received or receivable for the issuance of the guarantee, the consideration is recognised in accordance with the Group's policies applicable to that category of asset. Where no such consideration is received or receivable, an immediate expense is recognised in profit or loss on initial recognition of any deferred income.

Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the time value of money is material, provisions are stated at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation.
 
All provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
 
Where it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the obligation is disclosed as a contingent liability, unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote. Possible obligations, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more future uncertain events not wholly within the control of the Group are also disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the probability of outflow of economic benefits is remote.
 
Contingent liabilities are recognised in the course of the allocation of purchase price to the assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. They are initially measured at fair value at the date of acquisition and subsequently measured at the higher of the amount that would be recognised in a comparable provision as described above and the amount initially recognised less any accumulated amortisaton, if appropriate.

ADOPTION OF NEW OR AMENDED IFRSs
In the current year, the Group has applied for the first time the following new standards, amendments and interpretations (the "new IFRSs") issued by the IASB, which are relevant to and effective for the Group's financial statements for the annual period beginning on 1 May 2009.

IAS 1 (Revised)
Presentation of Financial Statements
IFRS 7 (Amended)
Improving Disclosures about Financial Instruments
Various
Annual Improvements to IFRS 2008 (May 2008)
 
Other than as noted below, the adoption of the new IFRSs had no material impact on how the results and financial position for the current and prior periods have been prepared and presented.
 
IAS 1 (Revised 2007) Presentation of financial statements
The adoption of IAS 1 (Revised 2007) makes certain changes to the format and titles of the primary financial statements and to the presentation of some items within these statements. It also gives rise to additional disclosures. The measurement and recognition of the Group's assets, liabilities, income and expenses is unchanged. However, some items that were recognised directly in equity are now recognised in other comprehensive income. IFRS 1 affects the presentation of owner changes in equity and introduces a 'Statement of comprehensive income'. Comparatives have been restated to conform with the revised standard.

ADOPTION OF NEW OR AMENDED IFRSs (Continued)
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements - Current/non-current classification of a callable term loan
Following the decision concluded by the IFRSs Interpretation Committee (the “Committee”) in November 2010 regarding the classification of a liability as current or non-current when the liability is not scheduled for repayment within twelve months after the reporting period, but may be callable by the lender at any time without cause, the Group reclassified its long term loans from non-current liabilities into current liabilities with immediate effect, as at the reporting dates of 30 April 2010 and 2009.
 
The Committee concluded that the amounts repayable under a loan agreement, which includes a clause that gives the lender the unconditional right to call the loan at any time, shall be classified by the borrower as current liabilities in its statement of financial position. The reason is the borrower under such an agreement does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date. The effect of the Group's financial statements is reclassification of long term loans of approximately HK$32,736,000 and HK$2,500,000 from non-current liabilities to current liabilities as at 30 April 2010 and 30 April 2009 respectively.
 
As a result of the above reclassification, an additional consolidated statement of financial position as at 1 May 2008 is presented in accordance with the requirement of the IAS 1 (Revised 2007).
 
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, certain new and amended IFRSs have been published but are not yet effective, and have not been adopted early by the Group.
 
The directors anticipate that all of the pronouncements will be adopted in the Group's accounting policy for the first period beginning after the effective date of the pronouncement. The directors are of the opinion that the new and amended IFRSs have been issued are not expected to have material impact of the Group's financial statements.
 
4.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
 
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:
 
 
(i)
Depreciation and amortisation
The Group depreciates its property, plant and equipment and amortises its prepaid lease payments in accordance with the accounting policies stated in Notes 2.6 and 2.7 respectively. The estimated useful lives reflect the management's estimate of the periods that the Group intends to derive future economic benefits from the use of these assets.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (Continued)
 
(ii)
Net realisable value of inventories
These estimates are based on the current market condition and the historical experience of selling products of similar nature. It could change significantly as a result of competitor actions in response to severe industry cycles. Management will reassess the estimations at the reporting date.
 
 
(iii)
Impairment of receivables
The Group's management determines impairment of receivables on a regular basis. This estimate is based on the credit history of the Group's receivables and the current market condition. When the Group's management determines that there are indicators of significant financial difficulties of the receivables such as default or delinquency in payments, allowance for impairment are estimated. The Group's management reassesses the impairment of receivables at the reporting date.
 
 
(iv)
Provision for taxes
There are certain transactions in the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Significant judgement is required in determining the amount of the provision for taxes and the timing of payment of related taxes. Should the final tax outcome be different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax provision in the period in which such determination is made.
 
In the opinion of the directors, the current tax position is a fair reflection of the judgement exercised by them with respect to such transactions.
 
 
(v)
Impairment of assets (other than financial assets)
The Group assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment of assets at each reporting date. They are tested for impairment when there are indicators that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When value in use calculations are undertaken, management estimates the expected future cash flows from the asset or cash-generating unit and determines a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.
 
5.
REVENUE
Revenue, which is also the Group's turnover, represents the total invoiced sales net of returns and discounts.

TRADE RECEIVABLES (Continued)
The credit terms of the Group's trade receivables range from 30 to 180 days. The Group normally applies credit terms to its customers according to industry practice together with consideration of their creditability, repayment history and years of establishment. The Group seeks to maintain strict control over its outstanding receivables. Overdue balances are regularly reviewed by the management.
 
The aging analysis of the Group's trade receivables as at the reporting date, based on due date and net of provision, is as follows :
 
     
2010
   
2009
 
     
HK$'000

181 - 365 days past due
    -       6  
        242,097       173,885  
 
Trade receivables that were neither past due nor impaired relate to customers for whom there was no recent history of default.
 
Trade receivables past due but not impaired were related to customers that had a good track record with the Group. Based on past experience, the management believe that no impairment allowance is necessary in respect of these balances as there has not been a significant change in credit quality and the balances are still considered fully recoverable. The Group did not hold any collateral in respect of trade receivables.

The Group entered into finance leases for items of plant and machinery. The lease periods are for 4 to 5 years. The Group has the option to purchase the leased equipments at prices that are expected to be sufficiently lower than the fair values of the leased assets at the end of the lease. None of the leases include contingent rentals.
 
Finance lease liabilities are effectively secured by the underlying assets as the rights to the leased asset would be reverted to the lessor in the event of default by repayment by the Group.
 
The carrying values of the Group's borrowings are considered to be reasonable approximation of fair values.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Group does not have written risk management policies and guidelines. However, the board of directors of the Company meets periodically to analyse and formulate measures to manage the Group's exposure to market risk (including principally changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates), credit risk and liquidity risk. Generally, the Group employs conservative strategies regarding its risk management. As the Group's exposure to market risk is kept at a minimum level, the Group has not used any derivative or other instruments for hedging purposes. The Group does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
 
As at 30 April 2010, the Group's financial instruments mainly consisted of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, trade and other payables and accruals, borrowings and dividend payable.
 
(a) 
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk relates to the risk that the fair value or cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of the changes in market interest rates. Financial instruments bearing variable rates and fixed rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk and fair value interest rate risk respectively.
 
The interest rates and terms of repayment of the Group's borrowings are disclosed in Note 20. The directors of the Company consider the Group does not have significant exposure to interest rate risk in respect of the Group's borrowings as they are mainly at fixed rates and stated at amortised cost. The Group's exposure to interest rate risk arises on bank deposits is not significant. The Group has not used any derivative contracts to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk. The Group has not formulated a policy to manage the interest rate risk.
 
The directors of the Company consider the Group's exposures to cash flow interest rate risk on bank balances as follows:

Interest rate risk (Continued)
Sensitive analysis
At 30 April 2010, it is estimated that a general increase/decrease of 25 basis points in interest rates, with all other variables held constant, would increase/decrease the Group's profit after tax and retained profits by approximately HK$93,000 (2009: HK$121,000). There would be no impact on other components of consolidated equity in response to the general increase/decrease in interest rates.
 
The assumed changes in interest rates are considered to be reasonably possible based on observation of current market conditions and represents management's assessment of a reasonably possible change in interest rate over the next twelve month period.
 
The policies to manage interest rate risk have been followed by the Group since prior years and are considered to be effective.
 
(b) 
Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that the counterparty to a financial instrument would fail to discharge its obligation under the terms of the financial instrument and cause a financial loss to the Group. The Group's exposure to credit risk mainly arises from granting credit to customers in the ordinary course of its operating activities.
 
The Group's cash and bank balances as at 30 April 2010 are mainly maintained with authorised banks in Hong Kong and the PRC. The Group's management considers the credit risk associated with these bank balances is insignificant.
 
The carrying amounts of the trade and other receivables included in the consolidated statement of financial position represent the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk in relation to the Group's financial assets. No other financial assets carry a significant exposure to credit risk. The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk due to its large customer base. Further details about the trade receivables are disclosed in Note 16 to the financial statements.
 
The credit policies have been followed by the Group since prior years and are considered to be effective in limiting the Group's exposure to credit risk to a desirable level.

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk relates to the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Group is exposed to liquidity risk in respect of settlement of trade payables and its financing obligations, and also in respect of its cash flow management. The Group's objective is to maintain an appropriate level of liquid assets and committed lines of funding to meet its liquidity requirements in the short and longer term.

Foreign currency risk
Currency risk refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.
 
The Group does not have significant exposure to foreign currency risk, as the Group s transactions are mainly dominated in HK$ and US$. As HK$ is pegged to US$ at a fixed exchange rate, the Group does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency risk. The Group reviews its foreign currency exposures regularly and does not consider its foreign exchange risk to be significant.

GSME, GSME Acquisition Partners I Sub (“GSME Sub”), Plastec and the Shareholders are parties to an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of September 13, 2010, as amended on December 9, 2010 (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which GSME Sub has merged with and into Plastec with Plastec surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of GSME.  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, GSME is to be indemnified in certain respects by the Insiders and the Investors.  The parties desire to establish an escrow fund as collateral security for the foregoing indemnification obligations.  The Representative has been designated pursuant to the Merger Agreement to represent the Insiders and the Investors and each Permitted Transferee (as hereinafter defined) of the Insiders and the Investors (the Insiders, the Investors and all such Permitted Transferees are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Owners”), and to act on their behalf for purposes of this Agreement.
 
The parties agree as follows:
 
1.            (a)           Concurrently with the execution hereof, an aggregate of 472,796 GSME Shares issued to the Insiders and the Investors and delivered to them at the Closing pursuant to the Merger Agreement, which shall be allocated among the Insiders and the Investors in accordance with the allocation set forth on Schedule 1(a) attached hereto,   together with ten (10) share transfer forms from each Insider and each Investor separate from the share certificates executed in blank by each such Insider and Investor to be held in escrow pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and Section 1.9   of the Merger Agreement.  The GSME Shares represented by the share certificates so delivered to the Escrow Agent are herein referred to in the aggregate as the “Escrow Fund.”  The Escrow Agent shall maintain a separate account for each Shareholder’s, and, subsequent to any transfer permitted pursuant to Paragraph 1(e) hereof, each Owner’s, portion of the Escrow Fund.
 
(b)           The Escrow Agent hereby agrees to act as escrow agent and to hold, safeguard and disburse the Escrow Fund solely pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof.  The Escrow Agent shall treat the Escrow Fund as a trust fund in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and not as the property of GSME. The Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder shall terminate upon its distribution of the entire Escrow Fund in accordance with this Agreement.
 
(c)           Except as herein provided, the Owners shall retain all of their rights as shareholders of GSME with respect to GSME Shares constituting the Escrow Fund during the period the Escrow Fund is held by the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Period”), including, without limitation, the right to vote their GSME Shares included in the Escrow Fund.
 

 
(d)           During the Escrow Period, all dividends payable in cash with respect to the GSME Shares then contained in the Escrow Fund shall be paid to the Owners, but all dividends payable in shares or other non-cash property (“Non-Cash Dividends”) shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold in accordance with the terms hereof.  As used herein, the term “Escrow Fund” shall be deemed to include the Non-Cash Dividends distributed thereon, if any.
 
(e)           During the Escrow Period, no sale, transfer or other disposition may be made of any or all of the GSME Shares in the Escrow Fund except (i) to a “Permitted Transferee” (as hereinafter defined), (ii) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of any Owner, or (iii) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; provided, however, that such permitted transfers may be implemented only upon the respective transferee’s written agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  As used in this Agreement, the term “Permitted Transferee” shall include (A) an Insider’s or Investor’s beneficial owners (“Beneficial Owners”); (B) an entity in which an Insider or an Investor and/or members of a Beneficial Owner’s Immediate Family beneficially own 100% of such entity’s voting and non-voting equity securities; (C) an entity in which an Insider or Investor and/or a member of a Beneficial Owner’s Immediate Family is a general partner and in which such Insider or Investor and/or Beneficial Owner’s Immediate Family beneficially own 100% of all capital accounts of such entity; (D) members of a Beneficial Owner’s “Immediate Family” (as hereinafter defined); and (E) a revocable trust established by a Beneficial Owner during his lifetime for the benefit of such Beneficial Owner or for the exclusive benefit of all or any of such Beneficial Owner’s Immediate Family.  As used in this Agreement, the term “Immediate Family” means, with respect to any Beneficial Owner, a spouse, lineal descendants, the spouse of any lineal descendant, and brothers and sisters (or a trust, all of whose current beneficiaries are members of an Immediate Family of the Beneficial Owner).  In connection with and as a condition to each permitted transfer, the Permitted Transferee shall deliver to the Escrow Agent an share transfer form separate from the share certificate executed by the transferring Shareholder or where applicable, an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, evidencing the transfer of shares to the Permitted Transferee, together with ten (10) share transfer forms separate from the share certificate executed in blank by the Permitted Transferee with respect to the shares transferred to the Permitted Transferee.  Upon receipt of such documents, the Escrow Agent shall deliver to GSME’s transfer agent the original share certificate out of which the assigned shares are to be transferred, together with the executed share transfer form separate from the share certificate executed by the transferring shareholder, or a copy of the applicable court order, and shall request that GSME issue new certificates representing (m) the number of shares, if any, that continue to be owned by the transferring shareholder, and (n) the number of shares owned by the Permitted Transferee as the result of such transfer.  GSME, the transferring shareholder and the Permitted Transferee shall cooperate in all respects with the Escrow Agent in documenting each such transfer and in effectuating the result intended to be accomplished thereby.  During the Escrow Period, no Owner shall pledge or grant a security interest in such Owner’s GSME Shares included in the Escrow Fund or grant a security interest in such Owner’s rights under this Agreement.

2.            (a)           GSME, acting through the Committee, which has been appointed by GSME to take all necessary actions and make all decisions on behalf of GSME with respect to its rights to indemnification under Article VIII of the Merger Agreement, may make a claim for indemnification pursuant to the Merger Agreement (“Indemnification Claim”) against the Escrow Fund by giving notice (a “Notice”) to the Representative (with a copy to the Escrow Agent) specifying (i) the covenant, representation, warranty, agreement, undertaking or obligation contained in the Merger Agreement which it asserts has been breached or otherwise entitles GSME to indemnification, (ii) in reasonable detail, the nature and dollar amount of any Indemnification Claim and (iii) whether the Indemnification Claim results from a Third Party Claim against GSME or Plastec.  The Committee also shall deliver to the Escrow Agent (with a copy to the Representative), concurrently with its delivery to the Escrow Agent of the Notice, a certification as to the date on which the Notice was delivered to the Representative.
 
(b)           If the Representative shall give a notice to the Committee (with a copy to the Escrow Agent) (a “Counter Notice”), within 30 days following the date of receipt (as specified in the Committee’s certification) by the Representative of a copy of the Notice, disputing whether the Indemnification Claim is indemnifiable under the Merger Agreement, the Committee and the Representative shall attempt to resolve such dispute by voluntary settlement as provided in paragraph 2(c) below. If no Counter Notice with respect to an Indemnification Claim is received by the Escrow Agent from the Representative within such 30-day period, the Indemnification Claim shall be deemed to be an Established Claim (as hereinafter defined) for purposes of this Agreement.
 
(c)           If the Representative delivers a Counter Notice to the Escrow Agent, the Committee and the Representative shall, during the period of 60 days following the delivery of such Counter Notice or such greater period of time as the parties may agree to in writing (with a copy to the Escrow Agent), attempt to resolve the dispute with respect to which the Counter Notice was given.  If the Committee and the Representative shall reach a settlement with respect to any such dispute, they shall jointly deliver written notice of such settlement to the Escrow Agent specifying the terms thereof.  If the Committee and the Representative shall be unable to reach a settlement with respect to a dispute, such dispute shall be resolved by arbitration pursuant to paragraph 2(d) below.
 
(d)           If the Committee and the Representative cannot resolve a dispute prior to expiration of the 60-day period referred to in paragraph 2(c) above (or such longer period as the parties may have agreed to in writing), then such dispute shall be submitted (and either party may submit such dispute) to a single arbitrator for arbitration before the AAA International Center for Dispute Resolution’s offices in New York City, New York, in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect. The Committee and the Representative shall attempt to agree upon an arbitrator; if they shall be unable to agree upon an arbitrator within 10 days after the dispute is submitted for arbitration, then either the Committee or the Representative, upon written notice to the other, may apply for appointment of such single arbitrator by the AAA in accordance with its rules.  GSME shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel for the parties and the fees and expenses of the arbitrator and of other expenses of the arbitration.  The arbitrator shall render his decision within 90 days after his appointment.  Such decision and award shall be in writing and shall be final and conclusive on the parties, and counterpart copies thereof shall be delivered to each of the parties.  Judgment may be obtained on the decision of the arbitrator so rendered in any court having jurisdiction, and may be enforced in any such court .  If the arbitrator shall fail to render his decision or award within such 90-day period, either the Committee or the Representative may apply to any New York state court sitting in New York County , New York , or any federal court sitting in such county then having jurisdiction, by action, proceeding or otherwise, as may be proper to determine the matter in dispute consistently with the provisions of this Agreement.  The parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York state courts sitting in New York County or any federal court having jurisdiction and sitting in such county for this purpose. The prevailing party (or either party, in the case of a decision or award rendered in part for each party) shall send a copy of the arbitration decision or of any judgment of the court to the Escrow Agent.

(e)           As used in this Agreement, “Established Claim” means any (i) Indemnification Claim deemed established pursuant to the last sentence of paragraph 2(b) above, (ii) Indemnification Claim resolved in favor of GSME by settlement pursuant to paragraph 2(c) above, resulting in a dollar award to GSME, (iii) Indemnification Claim established by the decision of an arbitrator pursuant to paragraph 2(d) above, resulting in a dollar award to GSME or Plastec, (iv) Third Party Claim that has been sustained by a final determination (after exhaustion of any appeals) of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (v) Third Party Claim that the Committee and the Representative have jointly notified the Escrow Agent has been settled in accordance with the provisions of the Merger Agreement; provided that, subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, notwithstanding anything herein, no Indemnification Claim shall become an Established Claim unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnification Losses, as set forth in Section 8.4(c) of the Merger Agreement, exceeds $500,000, in which event the entire amount of such Established Claim, together with the entire amounts of all other Established Claims, shall be payable.
 
(f)           (i)           Promptly after an Indemnification Claim becomes an Established Claim, the Committee and the Representative shall jointly deliver a notice to the Escrow Agent (a “Joint Notice”) directing the Escrow Agent to pay to GSME, and the Escrow Agent promptly shall pay to GSME, an amount of Escrow Shares, subject to the provisions of Sections 2(f)(ii) and (iii), equal to (subject to the basket described in Section 2(e) above and Section 8.4(c) of the Merger Agreement) the aggregate dollar amount of the Established Claim (or, if at such time there remains in the Escrow Fund less than the full amount so payable, the full amount remaining in the Escrow Fund).

 
-4-

 

(ii)         Payment of an Established Claim shall be made from Escrow Shares pro rata from the account maintained on behalf of each Owner.  For purposes of each payment, such shares shall be valued at the “Fair Market Value” (as defined below).  However, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be required to calculate Fair Market Value or make a determination of the number of shares to be delivered to GSME in satisfaction of any Established Claim; rather, such calculation shall be included in and made part of the Joint Notice.  GSME shall repurchase from the relevant Owners at a repurchase price of US $0.00001 per share, and the Escrow Agent shall thereby transfer to GSME out of the Escrow Fund that number of GSME Shares necessary to satisfy each Established Claim, as set out in the Joint Notice.  Any dispute between the Committee and the Representative concerning the calculation of Fair Market Value or the number of shares necessary to satisfy any Established Claim, or any other dispute regarding a Joint Notice, shall be resolved between the Committee and the Representative in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph 2(d) above, and shall not involve the Escrow Agent.   Each repurchase of shares in satisfaction of an Established Claim shall be made by the Escrow Agent delivering to GSME one or more share certificates held in each Owner’s account evidencing not less than such Owner’s pro rata portion of the aggregate number of shares specified in the Joint Notice, together with share transfer forms separate from the share certificate executed in blank by such Owner and completed by the Escrow Agent in accordance with instructions included in the Joint Notice.  Upon receipt of the share certificates and share transfer forms, GSME shall deliver to the Escrow Agent new certificates representing the number of shares owned by each Owner after such payment.  The parties hereto (other than the Escrow Agent) agree that the foregoing right to make payments of Established Claims in GSME Shares may be made notwithstanding any other agreements restricting or limiting the ability of any Owner to sell any GSME Shares or otherwise.  The Committee and the Representative shall be required to exercise utmost good faith in all matters relating to the preparation and delivery of each Joint Notice.  As used in this Section 2, “Fair Market Value” means the average reported closing price for the GSME Shares for the ten trading days ending on the last trading day prior to (x) the day the Established Claim is paid with respect to Indemnification Claims paid on or before the thirtieth day after GSME files its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2011 (the “Escrow Termination Date”), and (y) the Escrow Termination Date with respect to shares constituting the Pending Claims Reserve (as hereinafter defined) on the Escrow Termination Date.
 
(iii)        Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at such time as an Indemnification Claim has become an Established Claim, each Owner shall have the right to substitute for his, her or its Escrow Shares that otherwise would be paid in satisfaction of such claim (the “Claim Shares”) with cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Claim Shares (“Substituted Cash”).  In such event (i) the Joint Notice shall include a statement describing the substitution of Substituted Cash for the Claim Shares, and (ii) substantially contemporaneously with the delivery of such Joint Notice, the Representative shall cause currently available funds to be delivered to the Escrow Agent in an amount equal to the Substituted Cash.  Upon receipt of such Joint Notice and Substituted Cash, the Escrow Agent shall (y) in payment of the Established Claim described in the Joint Notice, deliver the Substituted Cash to GSME in lieu of the Claim Shares, and (z) cause the Claim Shares to be returned to the Representative on behalf of the applicable Owner.

3.            On the first Business Day after the expiration of the Escrow Period, upon receipt of a Joint Notice, the Escrow Agent shall distribute and deliver to each Owner share certificates representing the GSME Shares then in such Owner’s account in the Escrow Fund, unless at such time there are any Indemnification Claims with respect to which Notices have been received but which have not been resolved pursuant to Section 2 hereof or in respect of which the Escrow Agent has not been notified of, and received a copy of, a final determination (after exhaustion of any appeals) by a court of competent jurisdiction, as the case may be (in either case, “Pending Claims”), and which, if resolved or finally determined in favor of GSME, would result in a payment to GSME, in which case the Escrow Agent shall retain, and the total amount of such distributions to such Owner shall be reduced by, the “ Pending Claims Reserve” (as hereafter defined).  The Committee shall certify to the Escrow Agent the number of GSME Shares to be retained therefor.  Thereafter, if any Pending Claim becomes an Established Claim, the Committee and the Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a Joint Notice directing the Escrow Agent to pay to GSME an amount in respect thereof determined in accordance with Section 2(f) above, and to deliver to each Owner GSME Shares then in such owner’s account in the Escrow Fund having a value (based on $10.00 per share as adjusted for any share splits or similar events) equal to the amount by which the remaining portion of his account in the Escrow Fund exceeds the then Pending Claims Reserve (determined as set forth below), all as specified in a Joint Notice. If any Pending Claim is resolved against GSME, the Committee and the Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a Joint Notice directing the Escrow Agent to pay to each Owner the amount by which the remaining portion of his account in the Escrow Fund exceeds the then Pending Claims Reserve.  Upon resolution of all Pending Claims, the Committee and the Representative shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a Joint Notice directing the Escrow Agent to pay to such Owner the remaining portion of his or her account in the Escrow Fund.  As used in this Section 3, the “Pending Claims Reserve” shall mean, at the time any such determination is made, that number of GSME Shares in the Escrow Fund having a Fair Market Value equal to the sum of the aggregate dollar amounts claimed to be due with respect to all Pending Claims (as shown in the Notices of such Claims) and “Fair Market Value” means the average reported closing price for the GSME Shares for the ten trading days ending on the last trading day prior to the day of such determination.
 
4.            The Escrow Agent, the Committee and the Representative shall cooperate in all respects with one another in the calculation of any amounts determined to be payable to GSME and the Owners in accordance with this Agreement and in implementing the procedures necessary to effect such payments.
 
5.            (a)           The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein.  It is understood that the Escrow Agent is not a trustee or fiduciary and is acting hereunder merely in a ministerial capacity.
 
(b)           The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, and may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained) which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons.  The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto.
 
(c)           The Escrow Agent’s sole responsibility upon receipt of any notice requiring any payment to GSME pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or, if such notice is disputed by the Committee or the Representative, the settlement with respect to any such dispute, whether by virtue of joint resolution, arbitration or determination of a court of competent jurisdiction, is to pay to GSME the amount specified in such notice, if any, and the Escrow Agent shall have no duty to determine the validity, authenticity or enforceability of any specification or certification made in such notice.

 
-6-

 
 
(d)           The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by it in good faith, and may consult with counsel of its own choice and shall have full and complete authorization and indemnification under Section 5(f), below, for any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.
 
(e)           The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder by giving the other parties hereto written notice of such resignation.  Such resignation shall become effective at such time that the Escrow Agent shall turn over the Escrow Fund to a successor escrow agent appointed jointly by the Committee and the Representative.  If no new escrow agent is so appointed within the sixty (60) day period following the giving of such notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Escrow Fund with any court it reasonably deems appropriate.
 
(f)            Indemnification of Escrow Agent .
 
(i)          From and at all times after the date of this Agreement, GSME shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law and to the extent provided herein, indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent and each director, officer, employee, attorney, agent and affiliate of the Escrow Agent (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any and all actions, claims (whether or not valid), losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including without limitation reasonable fees, costs and expenses of one outside counsel (but not internal counsel)) (collectively, “Losses”) actually incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties from and after the date hereof, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or in any way relating to any claim, demand, suit, action or proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) by any person, including, without limitation, GSME, Plastec or the Shareholders, asserting a claim for any legal or equitable remedy against any person under any statute or regulation, including, but not limited to, any federal or state securities laws, or under any common law or equitable cause or otherwise, arising from or in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, performance or failure of performance of this Agreement or any transactions contemplated herein, whether or not any such Indemnified Party is a party to any such action, proceeding, suit or the target of any such inquiry or investigation; provided , however , that no Indemnified Party shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for any Losses to the extent they are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, subject to no further appeal, to be attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.

 
-7-

 
 
(ii)         If any such action or claim shall be brought or asserted against any Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Representative, the GSME and the Committee in writing, and GSME shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel and the payment of all reasonable expenses.  Such Indemnified Party shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to employ separate counsel (who may be selected by such Indemnified Party in its sole discretion) in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid by such Indemnified Party, except that GSME shall be required to pay such reasonable fees and expenses if (i) GSME agrees to pay such reasonable fees and expenses, (ii) GSME shall fail to assume the defense of such action or proceeding or shall fail, in the reasonable determination of such Indemnified Party, to employ counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party in any such action or proceeding, (iii) GSME, Plastec, the Insiders or the Investors are the plaintiff in any such action or proceeding or (iv) the named or potential parties to any such action or proceeding (including any potentially impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and any of Plastec, GSME, the Insiders and/or the Investors, and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to Plastec, the Insiders, the Investors or GSME.  All such reasonable fees and expenses payable by GSME pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be paid from time to time as incurred, both in advance of and after the final disposition of such action or claim.  The Losses of the Indemnified Parties shall be payable by GSME.  The obligations of GSME under this Section 5(f) shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and shall be independent of any obligation of the Escrow Agent.
 
(iii)        The parties agree that the payment by GSME of any claim by the Escrow Agent for indemnification hereunder shall not impair, limit, modify, or affect, as between GSME and the Insiders and Investors, the respective rights and obligations of GSME, on the one hand, and the Insiders and Investors, on the other hand, under the Merger Agreement.
 
(g)           The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reasonable compensation from GSME for all services rendered by it hereunder as set forth on Schedule 5(g) hereto.  The Escrow Agent shall also be entitled to reimbursement from GSME for all reasonable expenses paid or incurred by it in the administration of its duties hereunder including, but not limited to, all reasonable counsel, advisors’ and agents’ fees and disbursements and all taxes or other governmental charges.
 
(h)           From time to time on and after the date hereof, the Committee and the Representative shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent such further documents and instruments and shall do or cause to be done such further acts as the Escrow Agent shall reasonably request to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement, to evidence compliance herewith or to assure itself that it is protected in acting hereunder.
 
6.            This Agreement expressly sets forth all the duties of the Escrow Agent with respect to any and all matters pertinent hereto. No implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by the provisions of any agreement among the parties hereto except this Agreement and shall have no duty to inquire into the terms and conditions of any agreement made or entered into in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Merger Agreement.
 
7.            This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective heirs, successors, assigns and legal representatives and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed therein.  This Agreement cannot be changed or terminated except by a writing signed by the Committee, the Representative and the Escrow Agent.

(ii)         call upon any person who is at that time, or within the preceding twelve (12) months has been, an employee of the Plastec Group, for the purpose, or with the intent, of enticing such employee away from, or out of, the employ of the Plastec Group or for the purpose of hiring such person for Executive or any other person or entity, unless any such person’s employment with respect to the Plastec Group was terminated more than six (6) months prior thereto;

12

 

4.2          Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities .  Each selling holder of Registrable Securities will, in the event that any registration is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling holder, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each Underwriter (if any), and each other selling holder and each other person, if any, who controls another selling holder or such Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such selling holder expressly for use therein, and shall reimburse the Company, its directors and officers, and each other selling holder or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action.  Each selling holder's indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling holder in connection with the sale of the Registrable Securities by such selling holder pursuant to the Registration Statement containing such untrue statement.
 
4.3          Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings .  Promptly after receipt by any person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, such person (the “ Indemnified Party ”) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other person (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or action; provided , however , that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure.  If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party.  After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided , however , that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written opinion of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them.  No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.

4.4          Contribution .
 
4.4.1        If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
 
4.4.2        The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.
 
The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of any fraudulent misrepresentation.
 
5.           UNDERWRITING AND DISTRIBUTION.
 
5.1          Demanding Holder Underwritten Offering .

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO UNIT PURCHASE OPTIONS
 
WHEREAS, GSME Acquisition Partners I (the “Company”) wishes to clarify that certain rights granted under those certain Unit Purchase Options (“Unit Purchase Options”) issued to Cohen & Company Securities, LLC (“Cohen”) and its designees do not conflict with rights subsequently granted by the Company to certain of its shareholders (“New Investors”) in connection with the consummation of that certain Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of September 13, 2010, as amended on December 9, 2010, among GSME, GSME Acquisition Partners I Sub Limited, Plastec International Holdings Limited and the New Investors;
 
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Unit Purchase Options, the Company and Cohen may from time to time supplement or amend the Unit Purchase Options without the approval of any of the holders in order to cure any ambiguity or to make any other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising thereunder that the Company and Cohen may deem necessary or desirable and that the Company and Cohen deem shall not adversely affect the interest of the holders of such Unit Purchase Options; and
 
WHEREAS, the Company and Cohen wish to amend the Unit Purchase Options as follows.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:
 
1.            Section 5.2.1 is hereby amended by replacing it in its entirety with the following:
 
5.2.1 Grant of Right.
 
In addition to the demand right of registration, the Holders of the Purchase Options shall have the right for a period of seven (7) years commencing on the Effective Date, to include the Registrable Securities as part of any other registration of securities filed by the Company (other than in connection with a transaction contemplated by Rule 145(a) promulgated under the Act or pursuant to Form S-4 or Form S-8); provided, however, that if, (x) the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, for such offering advises the Company and the holder in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the holder desire(s) to sell, taken together with all other Ordinary Shares or other securities which the Company desires to sell and the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other shareholders of the Company who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering or (y) the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission does not permit all of the Registrable Securities requested by the holders, taken together with all other Ordinary Shares or other securities which the Company desires to sell and the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other shareholders of the Company who desire to sell, to be included in the Registration Statement (the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, that can be sold or registered are referred to herein as the “Maximum Amount”), then the securities to be sold by the Company to all shareholders (including the holders of Registrable Securities) in such public offering shall be included as follows:
 
 
 

 
 
(A)      If the registration is a “demand” registration pursuant to the New Registration Rights Agreement or the Existing Registration Rights Agreement (each as defined below), securities as provided therein.
 
(B)      If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of persons other than the holders of Registrable Securities, Existing Registrable Securities (as defined in the New Registration Rights Agreement) or New Registrable Securities (as defined in the Existing Registration Rights Agreement) then:
 
(w)           first, the number of securities for the account of persons exercising a written contractual arrangement to demand registration that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Amount and any other persons entitled to pro rata registration alongside such persons pursuant to the terms of such contractual arrangement;
 
(x)            second, to the extent that the Maximum Amount has not been reached under the foregoing clause (w), the number of securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Amount; and
 
(y)            third, to the extent that the Maximum Amount has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (w) and (x) the number of securities (including the Registrable Securities) as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual “piggy-back” registration rights of holders pursuant to this Agreement and the holders of registrable securities pursuant to that certain Registration Rights Agreement dated as of the 16 day of 2010 (“New Registration Rights Agreement”) and that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of November 19, 2009, as amended as of the 16 day of 2010 (the “Existing Registration Rights Agreement”) (pro rata between such holders in accordance with the number of Ordinary Shares which each such selling shareholder has actually requested to be included in such registration, regardless of the number of Ordinary Shares with respect to which such holders have the right to request such inclusion) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Amount; and

 
 

 
 
(z)            fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Amount has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (w), (x) and (y) the number of securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual “piggy-back” registration rights of other selling shareholders, (pro rata between such selling shareholders in accordance with the number of Ordinary Shares which each such selling shareholder has actually requested to be included in such registration, regardless of the number of Ordinary Shares with respect to such selling shareholders have the right to request such inclusion) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Amount.
 
(C)      In the event that the Company proposes to register its securities (in circumstances other than by persons exercising a written contractual arrangement to demand registration) in an underwritten offering subject to a Maximum Amount, then the securities to be sold in such public offering shall be included as follows:
 
(x)            first, the number of securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Amount; and
 
(y)            second, to the extent that the Maximum Amount has not been reached under the foregoing clause (x) the number of securities (including the Registrable Securities) as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual “piggy-back” registration rights of holders pursuant to this Agreement and the holders of registrable securities pursuant to the New Registration Rights Agreement and the Existing Registration Rights Agreement (pro rata between such holders in accordance with the number of Ordinary Shares which each such selling shareholder has actually requested to be included in such registration, regardless of the number of Ordinary Shares with respect to which such holders have the right to request such inclusion) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Amount; and
 
(z)             third, to the extent that the Maximum Amount has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (x) and (y) the number of securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual “piggy-back” registration rights of other selling shareholders, (pro rata between such selling shareholders in accordance with the number of Ordinary Shares which each such selling shareholder has actually requested to be included in such registration, regardless of the number of Ordinary Shares with respect to which such selling shareholders have the right to request such inclusion) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Amount.
