Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On January 21, 2011, Luck Loyal International Investment Limited (“Luck Loyal”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of China Electric Motor, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into an Equity Transfer Contract (the “Agreement”) with New-Metal (H.K.) Technology Limited (the “Seller”).  Under the terms of the Agreement, Luck Loyal will purchase 100% of the equity interests of Shenzhen Guofa Optoelectronics Co., Ltd., a wholly foreign owned enterprise incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “Target Company”), held by the Seller, for an aggregate purchase price of RMB42,673,736 (or approximately US$6.5 million, based on the exchange rate as of January 21, 2011) (the “Purchase”).  The purchase price will be paid by Luck Loyal in three installments, subject to certain conditions precedent and adjustments, as described in the Agreement.   For the first installment, Luck Loyal will pay RMB4 million (or approximately US$607,000, based on the exchange rate as of January 21, 2011) within ten (10) days of the execution of the Agreement.  For the second installment, Luck Loyal will pay RMB28.7 million  (or approximately US$4.4 million) within thirty (30) days of the Agreement after certain conditions precedent have been met.  The last payment of RMB10 million (or approximately US$1.5 million) will be withheld as a deposit to secure the settlement of labor issues, if any, as described in the Agreement. The closing of the Purchase is expected to take place within 120 business days following the date of the Agreement, subject to government approvals.  Each party’s obligation to complete the Purchase remains subject to the satisfaction of various conditions.  If the Seller materially breaches the Agreement, which results in loss of title to the equity interests being transferred, or subjects Luck Loyal or the Target Company to any claim, recourse or legal liability, Luck Loyal is entitled to either (A) sell the equity interests back to the Seller at an amount equal to the purchase price already paid by the Seller plus liquidated damages of 15% of such amount, or (B) receive a refund of at least 30% of the original purchase price from the Seller, at the option of Luck Loyal.

The foregoing description of the Purchase and related documents does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to a complete copy of the Agreement, a translation of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

On January 25, 2011, the Company issued a press release announcing the execution of the Agreement.  A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
