Re: Initial Public Offering
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter (“Letter Agreement”) is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) to be entered into by and between Global Cornerstone Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands business company (the “Company”) and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as representative of the several underwriters (the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “Offering”), of 8,000,000 of the Company’s units (the “Units”), each comprised of one ordinary share no par value of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”), and one warrant exercisable for one Ordinary Share (each, a “Warrant”). The Units sold in the Offering shall be quoted and traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 and prospectus (the “Prospectus”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 11 hereof.
In order to induce the Company and the Underwriters to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the Offering and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Global Cornerstone Holdings LLC (the “Sponsor”), each of the members of Global Cornerstone Holdings LLC (each, a “Member” and collectively, the “Members”), hereby agree with the Company as follows:
1. The Sponsor and Members hereby agree that if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such proposed Business Combination, the Sponsor and each Member shall vote all Founder Shares and any Ordinary Shares acquired by it in the Offering or the secondary public market in favor of such proposed Business Combination. The Sponsor and Members hereby further agree that if the Company seeks to amend its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the Sponsor and Members will have the discretion to vote in any manner they choose.
2. The Sponsor and Members hereby agree that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) within the Applicable Period, the Sponsor and each Member shall take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, redeem the Ordinary Shares sold as part of the Units in the Offering, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the Trust Account net of taxes payable (less up to $100,000 of such net interest to pay dissolution expenses and any interest income released to the Company to fund its working capital requirements), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) cease all operations except for the purposes of any winding up of our affairs as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under the laws of the British Virgin Islands to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.
Each of the Members, the Sponsor and the Company will not propose any amendment to the Company's amended and restated memorandum and articles of association that would affect the substance or timing of the Company's obligation, as described in Regulation 23 of the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, to redeem the Ordinary Shares held by Public Shareholders.
1
Each of the Members and the Sponsor acknowledges that he, she, or it has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or any other asset of the Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the Founder Shares. The Sponsor and the Members hereby further waive, with respect to any Ordinary Shares held by it or them, as the case may be, any redemption rights any of them may have in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, including, without limitation, any such rights available in the context of a shareholder vote to approve such Business Combination or in the context of a tender offer made by the Company to purchase Ordinary Shares (although the Sponsor and the Members shall be entitled to redemption and liquidation rights with respect to any Ordinary Shares (other than the Founder Shares) they hold if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the Applicable Period).
3. During the period commencing on the effective date of the Underwriting Agreement and ending 180 days after such date, none of the Sponsor or the Members shall (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, with respect to any Units, Ordinary Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Ordinary Shares owned by him, her or it, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Units, Ordinary Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Ordinary Shares owned by him, her or it, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii).
4. In the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account, each of Messrs. Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxx (“Indemnitors”), pro-rata on a 40%, 40% and 20% basis, respectively, agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, whether pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) to which the Company may become subject as a result of any claim by (i) any third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company or (ii) a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into an acquisition agreement with (a “Target”); provided, however, that such indemnification of the Company by the Indemnitors shall apply only to the extent necessary to ensure that such claims by a third party for services rendered (other than the Company’s independent public accountants) or products sold to the Company or a Target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below $10.00 per Ordinary Share sold in the Offering (the “Offering Shares”) (or approximately $9.97 per Offering Share if the underwriters’ over-allotment option, as described in the Prospectus, is exercised in full, or such pro rata amount in between $9.97 and $10.00 per Offering Share that corresponds to the portion of the over-allotment option that is exercised), and provided, further, that only if such third party or Target has not executed an agreement waiving claims against, and all rights to seek access to, the Trust Account whether or not such agreement is enforceable. In the event that any such executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against such third party, the Indemnitors shall not be responsible for any liability as a result of any such third party claims. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, such indemnification of the Company by the Indemnitors shall not apply as to any claims under the Company’s obligation to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Indemnitors shall have the right to defend against any such claim with counsel of their choice reasonably satisfactory to the Company if, within 15 days following written receipt of notice of the claim to the Indemnitors, the Indemnitors notify the Company in writing that they shall undertake such defense.
2
5. To the extent that the Underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 1,200,000 Ordinary Shares (as described in the Prospectus), the Sponsor agrees that it shall return to the Company for cancellation, at no cost, the number of Founder Shares held by the Sponsor determined by multiplying 263,414 by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is 1,200,000 minus the number of Ordinary Shares purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator of which is 1,200,000. The Sponsor further agrees that to the extent that (a) the size of the Offering is increased or decreased and (b) the Sponsor has either purchased or sold Ordinary Shares or an adjustment to the number of Founder Shares has been effected by way of a share split, share dividend, reverse share split, contribution back to capital or otherwise, in each case in connection with such increase or decrease in the size of the Offering, then (i) the references to 1,200,000 in the numerator and denominator of the formula in the immediately preceding sentence shall be changed to a number equal to 15% of the number of shares included in the Units issued in the Offering and (ii) the reference to 263,414 in the formula set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be adjusted to such number of Ordinary Shares that the Sponsor would have to return to the Company in order to hold 14% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares after the Offering (assuming the Underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option) (the “Non-Earnout Shares”). In addition, a portion of the Founder Shares in an amount equal to 4.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares immediately after the Offering (the “Earnout Shares”), shall be returned to the Company for cancellation, at no cost, on the four-year anniversary of the closing of the Company's initial Business Combination unless prior to such time (y) the last sales price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $13.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period; or (z) the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property for an amount which equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like).
6. (a) In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest that may arise from multiple corporate affiliations, each Member agrees that until the earliest of the Company’s Business Combination, liquidation or, if such Member is an officer of the Company, such time as such Member ceases to be an officer or director of the Company, he, she or it shall present to the Company for its consideration, prior to presentation to any other entity, any business opportunity with an enterprise value of $100 million or more, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary or contractual obligations he, she or it might have.
3
(b) Each Member understands that the Company may effect a Business Combination with a single target business or multiple target businesses simultaneously and agrees that he, she or it shall not participate in the formation of, or become an officer or director of, any blank check company until the Company has entered into a definitive agreement regarding its initial Business Combination or the Company has failed to complete an initial Business Combination within the Applicable Period of the Offering; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall override any Member’s fiduciary obligations to any entity with which he, she or it is currently directly or indirectly associated or affiliated or by whom he, she or it is currently employed.
(c) Each Member hereby agrees and acknowledges that (i) each of the Underwriters and the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by such Member of his, her or its obligations under paragraphs 7(a) and/or 7(b) herein, (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach.
7. (a) Each of the Members and the Sponsor acknowledges and agrees that until: (i) with respect to (A) the Non-Earnout Shares, one year after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination or earlier if, subsequent to the Company’s initial Business Combination, the last sales price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination (the “Non-Earnout Lock-Up Period”), and (B) the Earnout Shares, such date within four years subsequent to the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, if ever, that the last sales price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $13.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination (the “Earnout Lock-Up Period”); or (ii) the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property, that equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like); the undersigned shall not, except as described in the Prospectus, (A) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, with respect to the Founder Shares, (B) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of the Founder Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of the Ordinary Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or (C) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (A) or (B).
(b) Until 30 days after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination (the “Sponsor Lock-Up Period”), each of the undersigned shall not, except as described in the Prospectus, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, with respect to the Sponsor Warrants and the respective Ordinary Shares underlying the Sponsor Warrants, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of the Sponsor Warrants and the respective Ordinary Shares underlying the Sponsor Warrants, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of the Ordinary Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii).
4
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 7(a) and 7(b) herein, each of the Members and the Sponsor may transfer the Founder Shares and/or Sponsor Warrants and the respective Ordinary Shares underlying the Sponsor Warrants (i) to the Company’s officers or directors, any affiliate or family member of any of the Company’s officers or directors or any affiliate of the Sponsor or to any Member(s) of the Sponsor; (ii) in the case of any Member, by gift to a member of such Member’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of such Member’s immediate family, an affiliate of such Member or to a charitable organization; (iii) in the case of any Member, by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of such Member; (iv) in the case of any Member, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (v) by virtue of the laws of the state of Delaware or the Sponsor’s limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Sponsor; (vi) in the event of the Company’s liquidation prior to the completion of the Company’s Business Combination; or (vii) in the event that, subsequent to the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination, the Company consummates a merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property; provided, however, that, in the case of clauses (i) through (iv), these permitted transferees enter into a written agreement with the Company agreeing to be bound by the forfeiture restrictions and transfer restrictions in paragraphs 7(a) and 7(b) herein, as the case may be; and provided further that the Sponsor and the Members agree that the Sponsor shall not transfer, assign or sell the Earnout Shares during the Earnout Lock-Up Period prior to the Earnout Shares being earned.
(d) Further, each Member and the Sponsor agrees that after the Non-Earnout Lock-Up Period, the Earnout Lock-Up Period or the Sponsor Lock-Up Period, as applicable, has elapsed, the Founder Shares and the Sponsor Warrants and the respective Ordinary Shares underlying such Warrants, shall only be transferable or saleable pursuant to a sale registered under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. The Company, each Member and the Sponsor each acknowledge that pursuant to that certain registration rights agreement to be entered into among the Company, the Members and the Sponsor, each of the Members and the Sponsor may request that a registration statement relating to the Founder Shares, and the Sponsor Warrants and/or the Ordinary Shares underlying the Sponsor Warrants be filed with the Commission prior to the end of the Non-Earnout Lock-Up Period, the Earnout Lock-Up Period, or the Sponsor Lock-Up Period, as the case may be; provided, however, that such registration statement does not become effective prior to the end of the Non-Earnout Lock-Up Period, the Earnout Lock-Up Period or the Sponsor Lock-Up Period, as applicable.
(e) Each Member, the Sponsor and the Company understands and agrees that the transfer restrictions set forth in this paragraph 7 shall supersede any and all transfer restrictions relating to (i) the Founder Shares set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, effective as of January 25, 2011, by and between the Company and the Sponsor, and (ii) the Sponsor Warrants set forth in that certain Sponsor Warrants Purchase Agreement, effective as of February 4, 2011, by and between the Company and the Members. The Company will direct each of the certificates evidencing the Founder Shares to be legended with the applicable transfer restrictions.

The Member’s questionnaire furnished to the Company is true and accurate in all respects. Each Member represents and warrants that: such Member is not subject to or a respondent in any legal action for, any injunction, cease-and-desist order or order or stipulation to desist or refrain from any act or practice relating to the offering of securities in any jurisdiction; such Member has never been convicted of, or pleaded guilty to, any crime (i) involving fraud, (ii) relating to any financial transaction or handling of funds of another person, or (iii) pertaining to any dealings in any securities and such Member is not currently a defendant in any such criminal proceeding; and neither such Member nor the Sponsor has ever been suspended or expelled from membership in any securities or commodities exchange or association or had a securities or commodities license or registration denied, suspended or revoked.

Xxxxxxx as a bonus upon consummation of an initial Business Combination; and reimbursement for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating and consummating an initial Business Combination, so long as no proceeds of the Offering held in the Trust Account may be applied to the payment of such expenses prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, except that the Company may, for purposes of funding its working capital requirements (including paying such expenses), receive from the Trust Account up to $800,000 in interest income (net of taxes payable), in the event the Underwriters’ over-allotment option in the Offering is not exercised in full, or $920,000 in interest income (net of taxes payable), if the Underwriters’ over-allotment option in the Offering is exercised in full (or, if the over-allotment option is not exercised in full, but is exercised in part, the amount in interest income (net of taxes payable) to be released shall be increased proportionally in relation to the proportion of the over-allotment option which was exercised); and repayment of loans, if any, and on such terms as to be determined by the Company from time to time, made by the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, provided, that, if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination, a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account may be used by the Company to repay such loaned amounts so long as no proceeds from the Trust Account are used for such repayment; provided, however, that the Company may, for purposes of funding its working capital requirements (including repaying such loans), receive from the Trust Account up to $800,000 in interest income (net of taxes payable on such interest), in the event the Underwriters’ over-allotment option in the Offering is not exercised in full, or $920,000 in interest income (net of taxes payable on such interest), if the Underwriters’ over-allotment option in the Offering is exercised in full (or, if the over-allotment option is not exercised in full, but is exercised in part, the amount in interest income (net of taxes payable on such interest) to be released shall be increased proportionally in relation to the proportion of the over-allotment option which was exercised).
10. The Sponsor, and each Member has full right and power, without violating any agreement to which he, she or it is bound (including, without limitation, any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement with any employer or former employer), to enter into this Letter Agreement and each Member, if an officer and/or director of the Company, hereby consents to being named in the Prospectus as an officer and/or director of the Company.
6
11. As used herein, (i) “Business Combination” shall mean the acquisition, share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation or contractual control arrangement with, purchase of all or substantially all of the assets of, or engagement in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or assets; (ii) “Founder Shares” shall mean the 2,019,512 Ordinary Shares of the Company acquired by the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.012 per share, prior to the consummation of the Offering; (iii) “Sponsor Warrants” shall mean the Warrants to purchase up to 3,000,000 Ordinary Shares of the Company that are acquired by the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $3.0 million, or $1.00 per Warrant in a private placement that shall occur simultaneously with the consummation of the Offering; (iv) “Public Shareholders” shall mean the holders of securities issued in the Offering; (v) “Applicable Period” shall mean 21 months from the closing of the Offering and (vi) “Trust Account” shall mean the trust fund into which a portion of the net proceeds of the Offering shall be deposited and that will be held by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee.
12. This Letter Agreement, and the exhibits thereto, constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby. This Letter Agreement may not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other than to correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by all parties hereto.
13. No party hereto may assign either this Letter Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee. This Letter Agreement shall be binding on the Sponsor, each of the Members, and each of their respective successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns.
14. This Letter Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. The parities hereto (i) all agree that any action, proceeding, claim or dispute arising out of, or relating in any way to, this Letter Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of New York City, in the State of New York, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction and venue, which jurisdiction and venue shall be exclusive and (ii) waives any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and venue or that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.
15. Any notice, consent or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Letter Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by express mail or similar private courier service, by certified mail (return receipt requested), by hand delivery or facsimile transmission.
7
16. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of its Business Combination and does not conduct redemptions of its Ordinary Shares in connection with its Business Combination pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Commission, each of the Company, the Sponsor, the Members, directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates are permitted to purchase Ordinary Shares in privately negotiated transactions either prior to or following the consummation of the Company’s Business Combination. With respect to such purchases, each of the Company, the Sponsor, the Members, directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates will not make any such purchases when either the Company or they are in possession of any material non-public information not disclosed to the seller or during a restricted period under Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such a purchase would include a contractual acknowledgement that the seller, although still the record holder of the Company's Ordinary Shares is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that the Company, the Sponsor, the Members, directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates purchase Ordinary Shares in privately negotiated transactions from Public Shareholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. To the extent that the Sponsor, the Members, directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates enter into a private purchase, they would identify and contact only potential selling shareholders who have expressed their election to redeem their shares for a pro rata share of the trust account or vote against the Business Combination. Pursuant to the terms of such arrangements, any Ordinary Shares so purchased by the Sponsor, the Members, directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates would then revoke such selling shareholder’s election to redeem such Ordinary Shares. Except for the limitations described in the Prospectus on the use of trust proceeds released to the Company prior to consummating the initial Business Combination, there is no limit on the amount of Ordinary Shares that could be acquired by the Company or its affiliates, or the price the Company or its affiliates may pay, if the Company holds a shareholder vote.
17. This Letter Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Non-Earnout Lock-up Period, the Earnout Lock-Up Period or the Sponsor Lock-Up Period, whichever is longest, or (ii) the liquidation of the Company; provided, however, that this Letter Agreement shall earlier terminate in the event that the Offering is not consummated and closed by _____________, 2011, provided further that paragraph 4 of this Letter Agreement shall survive such liquidation.
