(1) Due to the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement (further described in Item 4 below), dated as of February 15, 2012 (the “Stockholders Agreement”), by and among GSE Holding, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), Code Hennessy & Simmons IV LP, CHS Associates IV and certain other stockholders of the Issuer (the “Other Stockholders”), this reporting person may be deemed to be a member of a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act and therefore may be deemed to beneficially own 653,076 shares of common stock of the Issuer, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), beneficially owned by the Other Stockholders as of the date of this Statement (the “Other Stockholder Shares”). This reporting person expressly disclaims being a member of a Section 13D “group” with the Other Stockholders and expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of the Other Stockholder Shares. As a result, the Other Stockholder Shares have been excluded from lines 11 and 13 in the table above. If the Other Stockholder Shares were included in Lines 11 and 13 in the table above, these lines would identify this reporting person as beneficially holding, in the aggregate, 11,396,710 shares of Common Stock, or 58.9%.

(2) Based on 19,338,454 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May 10, 2012, as disclosed in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 10, 2012 (the “Reported Shares Outstanding”).

The information set forth in Item 4 of this Statement is hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 3.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

On February 15, 2012, in connection with the consummation of the Issuer’s initial public offering, the Issuer, CHS IV, CHS Associates and the Other Stockholders entered into the Stockholders Agreement, which sets forth certain significant provisions relating to, among other things, the Issuer’s Board of Directors and drag-along rights.

Board of Directors. The Stockholders Agreement provides that each of the parties thereto will vote its shares of Common Stock and take all other necessary actions to cause the Issuer’s Board of Directors to include, for so long as CHS IV and CHS Associates (the “CHS Entities”) own, in the aggregate, capital stock representing 5% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, one director designated by the CHS Entities. The CHS Entities have the right to remove at any time, and to fill any vacancy arising from time to time with respect to, their designated director. In addition, the Stockholders Agreement provides that the CHS Entities may, for so long as they own, in the aggregate, capital stock representing 5% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, designate a non-voting observer reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to attend any meetings of the Issuer’s Board of Directors. For so long as the CHS Entities own any shares of Common Stock, the Issuer’s management shall (i) regularly meet with the CHS Entities’ representatives to consult and advise on the Issuer’s business and (ii) permit the CHS Entities to examine the Issuer’s books and records and inspect the Issuer’s facilities at the CHS Entities’ request.

Drag-Along Rights. In the event that the Issuer’s Board of Directors and the CHS Entities approve a sale of the Issuer (whether by merger, sale of Common Stock, sale of substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its subsidiaries, or otherwise), the Other Stockholders must, upon the CHS Entities’ request, sell in such transaction the same percentage of their respective shares of Common Stock, on substantially the same terms and conditions, as CHS proposes to sell.

The foregoing description of the Stockholders Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Stockholders Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

The Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, formulate other purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or the Common Stock that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons, or take any other actions that could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The foregoing is subject to change at any time.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) - (b) As of the date of this Statement, CHS IV is the record owner of 10,726,004 shares of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock owned by CHS IV may be deemed to be beneficially owned by CHS Management, which is the general partner of CHS IV, and by CHS LLC, which is the general partner of CHS Management.

CHS LLC disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock owned by CHS Associates, except to the extent of a pecuniary interest therein.

The 10,743,634 shares of Common Stock collectively owned by CHS IV and CHS Associates constitute approximately 55.6% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, based on the Reported Shares Outstanding.

The Investment Committee of CHS LLC exercises sole voting and dispositive powers with respect to the shares of Common Stock held by CHS IV and CHS Associates. The members of the Investment Committee are Brian P. Simmons, Daniel J. Hennessy, Thomas J. Formolo, David O. Hawkins and Richard A. Lobo (collectively, the “Investment Committee Members”). Each of the Investment Committee Members disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by CHS IV and CHS Associates, except to the extent of a pecuniary interest therein.

The aggregate shares of Common Stock described above does not include shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by any other member of any “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act in which CHS IV, CHS Associates or any of the Reporting Persons may be deemed a member.

Due to the relationship between the Reporting Persons and the Other Stockholders as set forth in the Stockholders Agreement (further described in Item 4 above), the Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “group,” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act, with the Other Stockholders, and each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power with respect to the limited matters described in Item 4 above over (and therefore to beneficially own) the 653,076 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned in the aggregate by the Other Stockholders as of the date of this Statement, such that each Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own 11,396,710 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 58.9% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, based on the Reported Shares Outstanding. The Reporting Persons hereby expressly disclaim membership in any “group” with any person and expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock that may be or are beneficially owned by the Other Stockholders. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that the Reporting Persons or any of their respective affiliates are the beneficial owners of any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Other Stockholders for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act or for any other purpose.
