DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

Gushan Environmental Energy Limited (the “Registrant”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to Registration Statement on Form S-8 to deregister all unsold securities originally registered by the Registrant pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2009, File No. 333-159571 (the “Registration Statement”), with respect to ordinary shares of the Registrant, par value HK$0.00001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), thereby registered for offer or sale pursuant to the Share Option Scheme of the Registrant. A total of 13,683,194 Ordinary Shares were initially registered for issuance under the Registration Statement.

The Registrant, Trillion Energy Holdings Limited (“Parent”), a British Virgin Islands business company limited by shares, Trillion Energy Investments Holdings Limited (“Merger Sub”), a Cayman Islands exempted company wholly-owned by Parent, and Mr. Jianqiu Yu, the Registrant’s Chairman and Principal Executive Officer, entered into an agreement and plan of merger on June 4, 2012 and an amendment to the agreement and plan of merger on September 13, 2012 (as amended, the “merger agreement”). The merger agreement was approved on October 15, 2012 by the shareholders of the Registrant at the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders. The Registrant and Merger Sub subsequently filed a plan of merger with the Cayman Islands Companies Registrar, which became effective as of October 17, 2012 (the “effective time”), as a result of which Merger Sub merged with and into the Registrant, with the Registrant continuing as the surviving company after the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. At the effective time, all outstanding Shares and American depositary shares of the Registrant were cancelled.

In connection with the merger, the Registrant has terminated the offering of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement. The Registrant hereby removes from registration all of the Ordinary Shares registered under the Registration Statement that remained unsold as of the date of this Amendment.
