ARTICLE
I
REPRESENTATIONS,
COVENANTS, AND WARRANTIES OF HKCO
As an
inducement to, and to obtain the reliance of, USCo, and except as set forth in
the corresponding disclosure schedules delivered by HKCo in connection with this
Agreement (the “HKCo
Schedules”), HKCo represents and warrants, as of the date hereof and as

Section

HKCo Schedules are complete and correct copies of the articles of association
(such documents, or other equivalent corporate organizational documents, the
“Organizational
Documents”) of HKCo as in effect on the date hereof. The
execution and delivery of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Contemplated Transactions”),
will not, violate any provision of HKCo’s Organizational
Documents. HKCo has full power, authority, and legal right and has

in violation of the preemptive or other rights of any person.
Section

taxes accrued but not yet due and payable.
(d) HKCo has
timely filed all state, federal or local income and/or franchise tax returns
required to be filed by it from inception to the date hereof. Each

forth in the HKCo Schedules or the HKCo Financial Statements, HKCo has no

Proceedings. There

of its assets, products, technology, or properties are bound other than those
incurred in the ordinary course of business are set forth in Schedule 1.09 of the
HKCo Schedules. A “material” contract, agreement, franchise, license
agreement, debt instrument or commitment is one which would be required to be
disclosed in connection with a current report on Form 8-K by HKCo if HKCo were a
registrant subject to Rule 13a-1 and Rule 13a-11 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”);
(b) All
contracts, agreements, franchises, license agreements, and other commitments to
which HKCo is a party or by which its properties are bound and which are
material to the operations of HKCo taken as a whole are valid and enforceable by
HKCo in all respects, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and subject to the qualification that
the availability of equitable remedies is subject to the discretion of the court
before which any proceeding therefore may be brought (collectively, “Bankruptcy and Equity
Exceptions”); and
(c) Except as
included or described in Schedule 1.09 of the
HKCo Schedules or reflected in the most recent HKCo Balance Sheet, HKCo is not a
party to any oral or written (i) contract for the employment of any officer or
employee; (ii) profit sharing, bonus, deferred compensation, stock option,
severance pay, pension benefit or retirement plan, (iii) agreement, contract, or
indenture relating to the borrowing of money, (iv) guaranty of any obligation;
(vi) collective bargaining agreement; or (vii) agreement with any present or
former officer or director of HKCo.
Section

Instruments. The
execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the Contemplated
Transactions will not result in the material breach of any term or provision of,
constitute a default under, or terminate, accelerate or modify the terms of, any

time to time amended.
(b) Upon
being informed in writing by any person holding restricted stock of USCo that

Rule 144 current public information requirement to enable such person to sell
such person’s restricted stock under Rule 144, as may be applicable under the

separate stock power duly executed by the appropriate person(s), in each case
with reasonable assurances that such endorsements are genuine and effective and

requirements of Rule 144, as the case may be, USCo will promptly instruct its
transfer agent to register such transfer and to issue one or more new
certificates representing such shares to the transferee and, if appropriate
under the provisions of Rule 144, as the case may be, free of any stop transfer
order or restrictive legend.

shall survive the closing of this Agreement for a period of six (6)
months.

I make
the following representations with the intent that they may be relied on by MD
HOLDINGS CORP. (the “Company”), in determining my
suitability as a purchaser of securities of the Company.
1. I have
had the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers and information,
from the officers of the Company and I deemed such information sufficient to
make an investment decision in the Company.

such knowledge and experience in business and financial matters that I am
capable of evaluating the Company, its business activities, and the risks and
merits of this prospective investment, and I am not utilizing a
purchaser representative (as defined in regulation D (“Regulation D”) promulgated
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) in
connection with the evaluation of such risks and merits, except as set forth in
paragraph 3.
3. I shall
provide a separate written statement from each purchaser representative on the
Purchaser Representative Acknowledgment Form available from the Company, in
which is disclosed (i) the relationship of the purchaser representative with the
Company, if any, which has existed at any time during the previous two (2)

relationship, and (ii) the education, experience, and knowledge in financial and
business matters which enables the purchaser representative to evaluate the
relative merits and risks of an investment in the Company.

undersigned and the purchaser representatives listed above, if any, together
have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that they
are capable of evaluating the Company and the proposed activities thereof and
the merits and risks of this prospective investment.

adequate means of providing for my current needs and possible personal
contingencies and have no need in the foreseeable future for liquidity of an

INVESTMENT
LETTER
TO: MD
HOLDINGS CORP.
Re: Purchase
of shares of Common Stock of MD HOLDINGS CORP.
Gentlemen:
In
connection with the acquisition by the undersigned of shares of Common Stock of
MD HOLDINGS CORP. (the “Securities”), the undersigned
represents that the Securities are being acquired without a view to, or for,
resale in connection with any distribution of such Securities or any interest
therein without registration or other compliance under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and that the
undersigned has no direct or indirect participation in any such undertaking or
in the underwriting of such an undertaking.
The
undersigned understands that the Securities have not been registered, but are
being acquired by reason of a specific exemption under the Securities Act as
well as under certain state statutes for transactions by an issuer not involving
any public offering and that any disposition of the subject Securities may,
under certain circumstances, be inconsistent with this exemption and may make
the undersigned an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities
Act. It is understood that the definition of an “underwriter” focuses
on the concept of “distribution” and that any subsequent disposition of the
subject Securities can only be effected in transactions which are not considered
distributions. Generally, the term “distribution” is considered
synonymous with “public offering” or any other offer or sale involving general
solicitation or general advertising. Under present law, in
determining whether a distribution occurs when securities are sold into the
public market, under certain circumstances one must consider the availability of
public information regarding the issuer, a holding period for the securities
sufficient to assure that the persons desiring to sell the securities without
registration first bear the economic risk of their investment, and a limitation
on the number of securities which the stockholder is permitted to sell and on
the manner of sale, thereby reducing the potential impact of the sale on the
trading markets. These criteria are set forth specifically in rule
144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”).
The
undersigned acknowledges that the Securities must be held and may not be sold,
transferred, or otherwise disposed of for value unless it is subsequently
registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is
available; the issuer is under no obligation to register the Securities under
the Securities Act or under section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, except as may be expressly agreed to by it in writing; if Rule 144
is available, and no assurance is given that it will be, initially only routine
sales of such Securities in limited amounts can be made in reliance on Rule 144
in accordance with the terms and conditions of that rule; the issuer is under no
obligation to the undersigned to make Rule 144 available, except as may be
expressly agreed to by it in writing; in the event Rule 144 is not available,
compliance with Regulation A promulgated under the Securities Act or some other
exemption may be required before the undersigned can sell, transfer, or
otherwise dispose of such Securities without registration under the Securities
Act; the issuer’s registrar and transfer agent will maintain a stop transfer
order against the registration of transfer of the Securities; and the
certificate representing the convertible promissory notes and warrants composing
the Securities will bear a legend in substantially the following form so
restricting the sale of such Securities.
B-1
THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND ARE “RESTRICTED
SECURITIES” WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE
SOLD OR TRANSFERRED WITHOUT COMPLYING WITH RULE 144 IN THE ABSENCE OF AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION OR OTHER COMPLIANCE UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT.
The
issuer may refuse to register transfer of the Securities in the absence of
compliance with Rule 144 unless the undersigned furnishes the issuer with a
“no-action” or interpretative letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission
or an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the issuer stating that the
transfer is proper; further, unless such letter or opinion states that the
Securities are free of any restrictions under the Securities Act, the issuer may
refuse to transfer the Securities to any transferee who does not furnish in
writing to the issuer the same representations and agree to the same conditions
with respect to such Securities as are set forth herein. The issuer
may also refuse to transfer the Securities if any circumstances are present
reasonably indicating that the transferee’s representations are not
accurate.
Very
truly yours,

To the

HONGKONG
CHENXIN INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT LIMITED
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hongkong Chenxin
International Development Limited and its subsidiary (the “Company”) as of
December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related consolidated statements of income and
comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended
December 31, 2008 and 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is
not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal
control over financial reporting. Our audits 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 Company’s internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the 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 audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Hongkong
Chenxin International Development Limited as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and
the consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for the years ended
December 31, 2008 and 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

Organization and principal activities
Hongkong
Chenxin International Development Limited (“Chenxin” or the “Company”) was
incorporated in Hong Kong on September 29, 2008. Chenxin is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Fresh Generation Overseas Limited (“Fresh Generation”), a company
incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”).
Fuqing
Guanwei Plastics Industry Company Limited (“Guanwei”) was incorporated in Fuzhou
city, Fujian Province, the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) on 9 April 2005 as
a wholly domestic-owned enterprise with an operating period up to 8 April
2055. Guanwei was owned by a group of PRC family members (the
“Original Shareholders”) on incorporation.
Fresh
Generation’s sole shareholder is a Canadian resident, who holds Fresh
Generation’s shares by a trust on behalf of the Original
Shareholders.
On
November 22, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement of Plan of
Reorganization (“the Plan”) with the Original Shareholders of Guanwei, pursuant
to which the Company had issued 10,000 authorized shares of common stock of the
Company to the Original Shareholders in exchange of 100% of the registered and
fully paid up capital of Guanwei. The closing date of this exchange transaction
was December 23, 2008. Guanwei was changed to a foreign-owned enterprise on
December 23, 2008 after the change in shareholding. The ultimate controlled
party remains as the Original Shareholders both before and after the Plan, and
considered that their controls are not transitory, then the Plan involving
entities or businesses under common control existed, merger accounting is
considered as an appropriate accounting policy for common control
combination.
The
principal activity of the Company and Fresh Generation is investment holding.
The principal activity of Guanwei is engaged in manufacturing and distribution
of Low Density Polyethylene (“LDPE”) and scrapped and other plastic
materials.

Summary of significant accounting policies
(a)
|
Basis
of Accounting and Principles of
Consolidation
|
The
consolidated financial statements for Chenxin and its subsidiary for the years
ended December 31, 2007 and 2008 are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in United States of America (“GAAP”) and include
the accounts of Hongkong Chenxin International Development Limited and Fuqing
Guanwei Plastics Industry Company Limited (hereafter referred to as the
(“Group”) for all periods presented.
In
preparing the consolidated financial statements presented herewith, all
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on
consolidation.
A single
uniform set of accounting policies is adopted by the combined entity (i.e.
Chenxin). Therefore, Chenxin recognized the assets, liabilities and equity of
the combining entities (i.e. Chenxin and Guanwei) at the carrying amounts in the
consolidated financial statements of the controlling parties (i.e. Original
Shareholders) prior to the common control combination. These carrying amounts
are referred to the existing book values from the Original Shareholder’s
perspective.

Summary of significant accounting policies
(a) Basis
of Accounting and Principles of Consolidation (Continued)
No
goodwill or excess of the acquirer’s interest in the net fair value of
acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over cost
at the time of the common control combination is recognized.
Comparative
amounts in the consolidated financial statements are presented at the carrying
amount as well, as if the combining entities had been combined throughout the
periods.
Expenditure
incurred (i.e. professional fees, registration fees, etc) in relation to a
common control combination that is to be accounted for by using merger
accounting is recognized as an expense in the period in which it is
incurred.
(b) Foreign
Currency Translations and Transactions
Chenxin
maintains its books and accounting records in United States Dollar (“US$”). The
primary currency of the economic environment in which the operations of Chenxin
are conducted is Renminbi (“RMB”). RMB is therefore considered as Chenxin’s
“functional currency”.
Chenxin’s
wholly-owned subsidiary, Guanwei maintains its books and accounting records in
RMB, being the functional currency. RMB, the national currency of the PRC, is
the primary currency of the economic environment in which the operation of
Guanwei is conducted currently or to be conducted in the future. RMB is
therefore considered as the “functional currency” of Guanwei.
Guanwei
uses the “Current rate method” to translate its financial statements from RMB
into US$, as required under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(“SFAS”) No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation” issued by the Financial
Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”). The assets and liabilities of Guanwei are
translated into US$ using the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet
date. The capital accounts are translated at the historical rate. Adjustments
resulting from the translation of the balance sheets of Guanwei from RMB into
US$ are recorded in shareholders’ equity as part of accumulated comprehensive
income. The statement of income and comprehensive income is translated at
average rates during the reporting period. Gains or losses resulting from
transactions in currencies other than the functional currencies are recognized
in net income for the reporting periods. The statement of cash flows is
translated at average rates during the reporting period, with the exception of
issue of share and payment of dividends which are translated at historical
rates. Due to the use of different rates for translation, the figures in the
statement of changes in cash flows may not agree with the differences between
the year end balances as shown in the balance sheets.

Comprehensive
Income
|
The Group
has adopted SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” (SFAS No. 130) issued
by the FASB. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and presentation
of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose
financial statements. The Group has chosen to report comprehensive income in the
statements of changes in shareholders’ equity. Comprehensive income comprised
net income and all changes to shareholders’ equity except those due to
investments by owners and distributors to owners.
(d) Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
from sales of manufactured LDPE is recognized when persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists, delivery of the goods has occurred, customer acceptance has
been obtained, which means the significant risks and ownership have been
transferred to the customer, the price is fixed or determinable and
collectability is reasonably assured.
Sales of
scrapped and other plastic materials are recognized on the same basis as sales
of LDPE.
Interest
income is recognized on a time proportion basis, taking into account the
principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.
(e) Taxation
The Group
accounts for income and deferred tax under the provision of SFAS No. 109:
“Accounting for Income Taxes” (SFAS No. 109), under which deferred taxes are
recognized for all temporary differences between the applicable tax balance
sheets and the consolidated balance sheet. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. SFAS
No. 109 also requires the recognition of the future tax benefits of net
operating loss carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established
when the deferred tax assets are not expected to be realized within a reasonable
period of time.
Effective
January 1, 2007, the Group adopted FIN No. 48, “Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” In accordance with FIN No. 48, the Group
recognizes tax benefits that satisfy a greater than 50% probability threshold
and provides for the estimated impact of interest and penalties for such tax
benefits. The Group did not have such uncertain tax positions in 2007 and
2008.
Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to
be applicable for taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income for the
period that includes the enactment date.

(f) Cash
and Cash Equivalents
Cash and
cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits with
banks.
(g) Receivables
and Other Assets
Receivables
and other assets are recorded at their nominal values. Valuation
allowances are provided for identified individual risks for these line
items. If the loss of a certain part of the receivables is probable,
valuation allowances are provided to cover the expected loss. Receivables are
written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been
exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does
not have credit line policy to customers. The customers mainly pay the upfront
payments for sales.
(h) Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost, on the first-in, first-out method, or market
value. Costs include purchase and related costs incurred in bringing
each product to its present location and condition. Market value is
calculated based on the estimated normal selling price, less further costs
expected to be incurred for disposal. Provision is made for obsolete,
slow moving or defective items, where appropriate.
(i) Property,
Plant and Equipment and Land Use Right
Property,
plant and equipment and land use right are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and amortization. Gains or losses on disposal are reflected in
current operations. Major expenditures for betterments and renewals
are capitalized. All ordinary repair and maintenance costs are
expensed as incurred. Land in the PRC is owned by the PRC government. The
government in the PRC, according to PRC law, may sell the right to use the land
for a specified period of time. Thus, all of the Group’s land purchases in the
PRC are considered to be leasehold land and classified as land use right. They
are amortized on a straight-line basis over the respective term of the right to
use the land. The period for right to use the land was extended from 30 years to
50 years in 2008 by the PRC government. Depreciation of property, plant and
equipment and land use right is computed using the straight-line method over the
assets’ estimated useful lives as follows:
|
Land
use right
|
Over
30 years prior to the extension of lease to
50
years and 50 years thereafter
|
Building | 20 years |

Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)
(j) Impairment
The Group
has adopted SFAS No. 144: “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets” which requires impairment losses to be recorded for property, plant and
equipment and land use right to be held and used in operations when indicators
of impairment are present. Reviews are regularly performed to
determine whether the carrying value of assets is impaired. The Group
determines the existence of such impairment by measuring the expected future
cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) and comparing such amount
to the carrying amount of the assets. An impairment loss, if one
exists, is then measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset
exceeds the discounted estimated future cash flows. Assets to be disposed of are
reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value of such assets less
costs to sell. Asset impairment charges are recorded to reduce the
carrying amount of the long-lived asset that will be sold or disposed of to
their estimated fair values. Charges for the asset impairment reduce the
carrying amount of the long-lived assets to their estimated salvage value in
connection with the decision to dispose of such assets. There were no impairment
losses recorded during each of the two years ended December 31,
2008.
(k) Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts that are reported in
the financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these
estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions
that the Group may undertake in the future, actual results may be different from
the estimates.
(l) Related
Parties
Entities
are considered to be related to the Group if the parties, directly or
indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or
are under common control with the Group. Related parties also include
principal owners of the Group, its management, members of the immediate families
of principal owners of the Group and its management and other parties with which
the Group may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the
management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the
transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate
interests. A party which can significantly influence the management
or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership
interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the
other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be
prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related
party.

(m) Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business
Combination” (SFAS No. 141(R)), which replaces FASB Statement No. 141. FAS No.
141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes
and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the
liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree and the
goodwill acquired. The statement also establishes disclosure
requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial
effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective as
of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008.
An entity is precluded from implementing Statement 141R early. The
Group will adopt this statement in fiscal year 2009 and its effects on future
periods will depend on the nature and significance of business combinations
subject to this statement.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests
in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51” (SFAS No.
160). SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for
noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries. This statement requires the reporting
of all noncontrolling interests as a separate component of stockholders’ equity,
the reporting of consolidated net income (loss) as the amount attributable to
both the parent and the noncontrolling interests and the separate disclosure of
net income (loss) attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling
interests. In addition, this statement provides accounting and reporting
guidance related to changes in noncontrolling ownership interests. Other than
the reporting requirements described above which require retrospective
application, the provisions of SFAS No. 160 are to be applied prospectively in
the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.
SFAS No. 160 has no impact on the Group’s financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
In
February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) SFAS No. 157-2, “Effective
Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (FSP SFAS 157-2). FSP SFAS 157-2
delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS No.
157) from 2008 to 2009 for all non-financial assets and non-financial
liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the
financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The
adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 157 related to non-financial assets and
non-financial liabilities is not expected to have a material impact on the
financial statements. See note 19 for a further discussion of
SFAS No. 157.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS No.
161). SFAS No. 161 requires additional disclosures about the
objectives of using derivative instruments, the method by which the derivative
instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement No. 133
and its related interpretations, and the effect of derivative instruments and
related hedged items on financial position, financial performance, and cash
flows. SFAS No. 161 also requires disclosure of the fair values of
derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular
format. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15,
2008. The Group has no derivative instruments or hedging activities
and this pronouncement is only disclosure-related; accordingly, SFAS 161 has no
impact on the Group’s financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.

Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In April
2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the
Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly
Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (FSP SFAS No.
157-4). FSP SFAS No. 157-4 provides factors to determine whether
there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for
the asset or liability and circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is
not orderly. In those instances, adjustments to the transactions or quoted
prices may be necessary to estimate fair value with SFAS No. 157. This FSP
does not apply to Level 1 inputs. FSP SFAS No. 157 also requires additional
disclosures, including inputs and valuation techniques used, and changes
thereof, to measure the fair value. FSP SFAS No. 157-4 is effective for
interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. Early
adoption is permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. Management
of the Group is in the process of evaluating the impact of FSP SFAS
No. 157-4 and will adopt this FSP, effective on January 1,
2009.
In May
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events” (SFAS No. 165).
SFAS No. 165 provides general standards of accounting for and disclosure of
events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements
are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS No. 165 is applicable for interim
or annual periods after June 15, 2009. The application of SFAS No. 165 is
not expected to have a material effect on the Group’s financial
statements.
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The ‘FASB Accounting Standards
Codification’ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”
(SFAS No. 168). SFAS No. 168 established the “FASB Accounting Standards
Codification” (“Codification”), which officially launched on July 1, 2009, to
become the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be
applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities
laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. The
subsequent issuances of new standards will be in the form of Accounting
Standards Updates that will be included in the Codification. Generally, the
Codification is not expected to change U.S. GAAP. All other accounting
literature excluded from the Codification will be considered nonauthoritative.
SFAS No. 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual
periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Group will adopt SFAS No. 168 for
year ending December 31, 2009. The Group is currently evaluating the effect on
the financial statement disclosures as all future references to authoritative
accounting literature will be referenced in accordance with the
Codification.
The Group
does not believe that any other of the recently issued and adopted, but not yet
effective, accounting standards would have a material effect on the accompanying
financial statements.

15 PRC
statutory reserves
Under the
relevant PRC laws and regulations, Guanwei is required to appropriate certain
percentage of its net income to statutory fund i.e. the statutory reserve
fund.
Statutory
reserve fund
Pursuant
to applicable PRC laws and regulations, Guanwei is required to allocate at least
10% of its net income to the statutory reserve fund until such fund reaches 50%
of Guanwei’s registered capital. The statutory reserve fund can be utilized upon
the approval by the relevant authorities, to offset accumulated losses or to
increase registered capital, provided that such fund be maintained at a minimum
of 25% of the registered capital.
Statutory
staff welfare fund
Pursuant
to applicable PRC laws and regulations as applicable to PRC domestic-owned
enterprise, Guanwei, the subsidiary is required to allocate certain amount of
its net income to the staff welfare fund determined by Guanwei. Guanwei ceased
to allocate such fund since it became a foreign-owned enterprise in December
2008. The staff welfare fund can only be used to provide staff welfare
facilities and other collective benefits to the employees. This fund is
non-distributable other than upon liquidation of the Guanwei.
16 Pension
plan
As
stipulated by the rules and regulations in the PRC, Guanwei contributes to the
national retirement plans for its employees in the PRC. Guanwei
contributes approximately 20% of the basic salaries of its employees, and
has no further obligations for the actual payment of pension or post-retirement
benefits beyond the annual contributions. The state-sponsored
retirement plans are responsible for the entire pension obligations payable to
retired employees.
During
the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the aggregate contributions of the
Group to the aforementioned pension plan were approximately US$110,000 and
US$105,000 respectively.

17 Risks,
Uncertainties, and concentrations
|
(i)
|
Nature
of Operations
|
All of
the Group’s operations are conducted in the PRC and are subject to various
political, economic, and other risks and uncertainties inherent in this
country. Among other risks, the Group’s operations are subject to the
risks of restrictions on transfer of funds; export duties, quotas and embargoes;
domestic and international customs and tariffs; changing taxation policies;
foreign exchange restrictions; and political conditions and governmental
regulations.
|
(ii)
|
Concentration
of Credit Risk
|
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Group to concentrations of credit risk
consist principally of cash.
As of
December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Group had cash deposits of US$1 million and
US$1.5 million placed with several banks in the PRC, where there is currently no
rule or regulation in place for obligatory insurance of bank accounts. The Group
has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed
to any risks on its cash in bank accounts.
|
(iii)
|
Concentration
of Suppliers and Restriction of Import
Quota
|
For the
year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, 86% and 85% of raw materials was
purchased from three major suppliers respectively.
In the
PRC, import of regenerative plastic materials is controlled by import quota. The
grant of import quota to the Group is subject to review and approval by the
Ministry of Environmental Protection of the PRC annually. For the year ended
December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Group obtained an import quota of 24,000 tons of
regenerative plastic materials for each respective year (note 18).
|
(iv)
|
Foreign
Exchange Risk
|
The Group
operates in the PRC and purchases raw materials from overseas suppliers, and is
exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures,
primarily with respect to purchases in, US$ and Euro (“EUR”). Foreign
exchange risk arises from committed and unmatched future commercial
transactions, such as confirmed import purchase orders, recognized assets and
liabilities in the PRC operations.
The
Company has not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce
exposure to foreign exchange risk.

17 Risks,
Uncertainties, and concentrations (Continued)
(v) Dependence
of Import Quota from a related company
During
the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, import of regenerative plastic
materials were heavily dependent on the import quota granted by a related
company, Fuqing Xxxx Xx Plastics Company Limited or “Xxxx Xx” (note
18). Although the Group has not experienced difficulties obtaining
the import quota from Xxxx Xx in the past, the Group can not guarantee the grant
of import quota will be obtained from Xxxx Xx in the future. If the Group fail
to obtain the import quota from Xxxx Xx, the Group may have to use domestically
supplied plastics wastes for manufacturing. Domestic plastic wastes
are typically poorly sorted, so utilizing the domestic raw material increase
production costs.
18 Related
party transaction
|
During
the years 2007 and 2008, the Group imported regenerative plastic materials
at a level much more than its granted import quota level by utilizing
35,000 tons from Xxxx Xx at nil consideration in each of the respective
year. Xxxx Xx and the Company have a common
director.

19 Fair
value of financial instruments
In
September 2006, the FASB finalized SFAS No. 157 which became effective January
1, 2008 except as amended by FSP SFAS No. 157-2 as previously described and FSP
SFAS No. 157-1 and FSP SFAS No. 157-3 as discussed below. This
statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value
and expands disclosures about fair value measurements; however, it does not
require any new fair value measurements. On January 1, 2008, the
provisions of this statement were applied prospectively to fair value
measurements and disclosures of (a) financial assets and financial liabilities
and (b) non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities which are recognized
or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at
least annually). The adoption of this statement did not have a
material effect on the financial statements for fair value measurements made for
the year ended December 31, 2008.
In
February 2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 157-1, “Application of FASB Statement
No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That
Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or
Measurement under Statement 13” (FSP SFAS No. 157-1). FSP SFAS No.
157-1 removed leasing from the scope of SFAS No. 157. In October
2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial
Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not Active” (FSP SFAS No.
157-3). FSP SFAS 157-3 clarified the application of SFAS No. 157 in a
market that is not active and provided an example to illustrate key
considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the
market for that financial asset is not active. FSP SFAS No. 157-3
became effective immediately upon issuance, and its adoption did not have an
effect on the financial statements.

the board of directors so determines, one or more persons who are not directors
of the Corporation. In the absence or disqualification of a member of a
committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not
disqualified from voting, whether or not he or they constitute a quorum, may
unanimously appoint another member of the board of directors to act at the
meeting in the place of such absent or disqualified member.
Section
4.2 Committee Powers and
Authority. The board of directors may provide, by resolution or by
amendment to these bylaws, for an Executive Committee to consist of one or more
directors of the Corporation (but no persons who are not directors of the
Corporation) that may exercise all the power and authority of the board of
directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and
may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may
require it; provided, however, that an Executive Committee may not exercise the
power or authority of the board of directors in reference to amending the
articles of incorporation (except that an Executive Committee may, to the extent
authorized in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of shares
of stock adopted by the board of directors, pursuant to Article 3(3) of the
articles of incorporation, fix the designations and any of the preferences or
rights of shares of preferred stock relating to dividends, redemption,
dissolution, any distribution of property or assets of the Corporation, or the
conversion into, or the exchange of shares for, shares of any other class or
classes or any other series of the same or any other class or classes of stock
of the Corporation or fix the number of shares of any series of stock or
authorize the increase or decrease of the shares of any series), adopting an
agreement of merger or consolidation, recommending to the stockholders the sale,
lease, or exchange of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s property and
assets, recommending to the stockholders a dissolution of the Corporation or a
revocation of a dissolution, or amending these bylaws; and, unless the
resolution expressly so provides, no an Executive Committee shall have the power
or authority to declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of
stock.
Section
4.3 Committee Procedures.
To the extent the board of directors or the committee does not establish other
procedures for the committee, each committee shall be governed by the procedures
established in Section 2.4 (except as they relate to an annual meeting of the
board of directors) and Sections 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8 and 2.9 of these bylaws, as
if the committee were the board of directors.

Indemnification
Section
5.1 Expenses for Actions Other
Than By or In the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in
the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director
or officer of the Corporation, or, while a director or officer of the
Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, association or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with which action, suit or proceeding, if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The
termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction or upon plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of
itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a
manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, that he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
unlawful.
Section
5.2 Expenses for Actions By or
In the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify any
person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is
or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or, while a director or officer
of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, association or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action or suit, if he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any
claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which
such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite
the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case,
such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses
which the court shall deem proper.
Section
5.3 Successful Defense.
To the extent that any person referred to in the preceding two sections of this
Article V has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in such sections, or in defense of any
claim issue, or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses
(including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection therewith.
Section
5.4 Determination to
Indemnify. Any indemnification under the first two sections of this
Article V (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as
authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the
director or officer is proper in the circumstances because he has met the
applicable standard of conduct set forth therein. Such determination shall be
made (i) by the stockholders, (ii) by the board of directors by majority vote of
a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or
proceeding, or (iii) if such quorum is not obtainable or, if a quorum of
disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written
opinion.
Section
5.5 Expense Advances.
Expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil or criminal
action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the
final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay such amount if
it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Corporation as authorized in this Article V.
Section
5.6 Provisions
Nonexclusive. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided
by, or granted pursuant to, the other sections of this Article V shall not be
deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person seeking indemnification
or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the articles of incorporation
or under any other bylaw, agreement, insurance policy, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors, statute or otherwise, both as to action in his official
capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office.
Section
5.7 Insurance. By action
of the board of directors, notwithstanding any interest of the directors in the
action, the Corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance, in
such amounts as the board of directors deems appropriate, on behalf of any
person who is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or
agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, association or
other enterprise, against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him
in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not he is
indemnified against such liability or expense under the provisions of this
Article V and whether or not the Corporation would have the power or would be
required to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this
Article V or of the Nevada Revised Statutes §78.7502; §78.751 or §78.752 or by
any other applicable law.
Section
5.8 Surviving
Corporation. The board of directors may provide by resolution that
references to “the Corporation” in this Article V shall include, in addition to
this Corporation, all constituent corporations absorbed in a merger with this
Corporation so that any person who was a director or officer of such a
constituent corporation or is or was serving at the request of such constituent
corporation as a director, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, association or other entity shall stand in
the same position under the provisions of this Article V with respect to this
Corporation as he would if he had served this Corporation in the same capacity
or is or was so serving such other entity at the request of this Corporation, as
the case may be.
Section
5.9 Inurement. The
indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to,
this Article V shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or
officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and
administrators of such person.
Section
5.10 Employees and Agents.
To the same extent as it may do for a director or officer, the Corporation may
indemnify and advance expenses to a person who is not and was not a director or
officer of the Corporation but who is or was an employee or agent of the
Corporation or who is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, association or other enterprise.
ARTICLE

Stock
Section
6.1 Certificates. Every
holder of stock in the Corporation represented by certificates and, upon
request, every holder of uncertificated shares shall be entitled to have a
certificate, signed by or in the name of the Corporation by the President or
chairman of the board of directors, or a vice president, and by the secretary or
an assistant secretary, or the treasurer or an assistant treasurer of the
Corporation, certifying the number of shares owned by him in the
Corporation.
Section
6.2 Facsimile Signatures.
Where a certificate of stock is countersigned (i) by a transfer agent other than
the Corporation or its employee or (ii) by a registrar other than the
Corporation or its employee, any other signature on the certificate may be
facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed, or
whose facsimile signature or signatures have been placed upon, any such
certificate shall cease to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar, whether
because of death, resignation or otherwise, before such certificate is issued,
the certificate may nevertheless be issued by the Corporation with the same
effect as if he were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of
issue.
Section
6.3 Transfer of Stock.
Transfers of shares of stock of the Corporation shall be made on the books of
the Corporation only upon presentation of the certificate or certificates
representing such shares properly endorsed or accompanied by a proper instrument
of assignment, except as may otherwise be expressly provided by the laws of the
State of Nevada or by order by a court of competent jurisdiction. The officers
or transfer agents of the Corporation may, in their discretion, require a
signature guaranty before making any transfer.
Section
6.4 Lost Certificates.
The board of directors may direct that a new certificate of stock be issued in
place of any certificate issued by the Corporation that is alleged to have been
lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the
person claiming the certificate to be lost, stolen, or destroyed. When
authorizing such issue of a new certificate, the board of directors may, in its
discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance of a new certificate,
require the owner of such lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate, or his legal
representative, to give the Corporation a bond in such sum as it may reasonably
direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Corporation
on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or
the issuance of such new certificate.
ARTICLE
VII
Seal
The board
of directors may, but are not required to, adopt and provide a common seal or
stamp which, when adopted, shall constitute the corporate seal of the
Corporation. The seal may be used by causing it or a facsimile thereof to be
impressed or affixed or manually reproduced.
