Pursuant to the LOI, the Company agreed to acquire 84% ownership interest in Defeng’s subsidiary, Heilongjiang Tianyi Fengyuan Investment Co., Ltd., a People’s Republic of China company (“Tianyi Fengyuan”) for RMB 140,000,000 (the “Acquisition Price”).  Additionally, the Company will pay Ruihao either RMB 25,000,000 or RMB 12,000,000 as pre-construction costs for each of the four Phase 1 farms that is determined to be construction ready. The definitive agreement will provide that (i) the Acquisition Price will be fully due by July 31, 2010, with a non-refundable deposit of 10% of the Acquisition Price to be paid upon signing of the definitive agreement and (ii) RMB 25,000,000 for pre-construction costs will be due by August 31, 2010 and the timing of further pre-construction costs will be determined no later than December 31, 2010.
 
The LOI provides that a joint venture will be set up to develop and operate each wind farm in the Ruihao Project A (the Guangyuan Daxin Project Phase I and Anda Guangyuan Laohugang Project Phase I). The estimated construction cost for a 49.5 MW wind farm in the Ruihao Project A is approximately RMB 425,000,000 and requires equity investment of 25% of the total investment (the “Project A Equity Investment”). The Company will contribute 60% of the Project A Equity Investment for 51% ownership and economic interest in each Ruihao Project A joint venture. The Company will also have a right of first refusal on every other development capacity/phases in Ruihao Project A.

The total estimated construction cost for a 49.5 MW wind farm in the Ruihao Project B is approximately RMB 425,000,000 and requires equity investment of 25% of the total investment (the “Project B Equity Investment”).  The Company will contribute 100% of the Project B Equity Investment for 85% ownership and economic interest in each Ruihao Project B joint venture. Ruihao has the option to purchase additional ownership interest in the Ruihao Project B joint ventures as set forth in the LOI. The Company will also have a right of first refusal on every other development capacity/phases in Ruihao Project B.
