trust account (the “Trust Account”) maintained by Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company
(“Continental”) pending the consummation of a Business Combination, or the dissolution and
liquidation of China Discovery, in the event it is unable to consummate a Business Combination by
June 26, 2009.
WHEREAS, China Discovery has agreed to acquire (the “Acquisition”) HeNan Smart Food Company
Limited pursuant to certain agreements (the “Transaction Agreements”).
WHEREAS, the approval of the Acquisition is contingent upon, among other things, the
affirmative vote of holders of a majority of China Discovery’s outstanding ordinary shares which
are present and entitled to vote at the meeting to approve the Acquisition.
WHEREAS, pursuant to certain provisions in China Discovery’s amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association, a holder of ordinary shares of China Discovery issued in the IPO may,

into cash (“Conversion Rights”).
WHEREAS, the Acquisition is subject to the exercise of Conversion Rights by holders of less
than 30% of the China Discovery ordinary shares issued in the IPO.
WHEREAS, Seller has agreed to sell to Buyer and Buyer has agreed to purchase from Seller the
ordinary shares set forth on the execution page of this Agreement (“Shares”) for the purchase price
