[TRIPLE S LETTERHEAD]
May 29, 2001
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to announce that on May 25, 2001, Triple S Plastics
renewed its merger agreement with Eimo Oyj, a Finnish corporation,
pursuant to which a subsidiary of Eimo will merge into Triple S and
Triple S will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Eimo. The merger is
subject to approval by Triple S's and Eimo's shareholders, and may be
subject to regulatory approval. The terms of the renewed agreement
and the consideration you will receive for your Triple S shares in the
proposed merger are described in the enclosed press release.
Please be aware that, notwithstanding the renewal of the merger
agreement, Triple S still intends to hold its previously scheduled
annual meeting of shareholders on June 29, 2001 to elect its directors
and to ratify its auditors for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2002.
Triple S will hold a special shareholders' meeting at a later date to
consider and vote on the proposed merger, and will inform you of the
date, time and place at which the special shareholders' meeting will
be held in a notice which will be included in the proxy
statement/prospectus described below.
In connection with the upcoming annual meeting of shareholders, we
have enclosed copies of our proxy statement and our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001. Please note that,
due to the recent timing of the renewal of the merger agreement, the
Form 10-K does not reflect the renewed merger agreement or the new
terms of Triple S's proposed merger with Eimo.
In connection with the proposed merger, Eimo will be filing an amended
registration statement and other documents with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC). The amended registration statement will
contain a new special meeting proxy statement of Triple S and a new
prospectus of Eimo. We urge you to read this new combined proxy
statement/prospectus and any other relevant documents filed with the
SEC when they become available because they will contain important
information concerning the proposed merger, among other things. We
will mail the new proxy statement/prospectus and the other relevant
documents free of charge to shareholders of record of Triple S on the
record date to be set for the special shareholders' meeting. You will
also be able to obtain the new proxy statement/prospectus and other
relevant documents free of charge at the SEC's website, www.sec.gov,
or by requesting these documents from Triple S at 7950 Moorsbridge
Road, Suite 200, Portage, Michigan 49024, Attention: Corporate
Secretary.
We thank you for your patience and support and look forward to seeing
you at the upcoming annual meeting of shareholders.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Daniel B. Canavan
