Pursuant to the Framework, Sinofield will be the only platform for CMNE to invest into China's rooftop solar development after Sinofield's completion of capital increase. CTDC and CMNE will be responsible for raising funds for all the rooftop projects to ensue. On this March 14th, the Development Financing Cooperation Agreement signed between CMNE and CDB will bring CMNE up to RMB10 billion financing support in the coming four years, which will be used to fully support CMNE's solar business, including development, construction and operation domestic and abroad, as well as merger and acquisition of advanced solar technology, potential business opportunities and solar assets.

Besides, as a part of the Framework signed in January, CTDC and GCL-Poly will jointly develop and invest in solar farms in the USA. In addition, GCL-Poly is to assist CTDC in investing solar farms that are in operation or being installed in the USA. According to GCL-Poly's announcement published on Feb.13, 2012, GCL-Poly and Bank of America Merrill Lynch ("BofA Merrill") announced the closing of an initial transaction to fund solar power systems developed by GCL-Poly's US subsidiary GCL Solar Energy Inc. ("GCL Solar"). This initial transaction involves the financing of 15 separate sites, totaling 5MW of solar power systems serving the Palmdale School District located in southern California. GCL-Poly said it was an initial transaction to form the basis of a long-term relationship to provide funding for a portion of the substantial portfolio of over 1GW of solar projects under development by GCL Solar in the United States.

Alan Li, Chairman of the Board and CEO of CTDC, said: "We are glad that China Merchants New Energy Group and GCL-Poly recently received financing support for solar station development and construction from well-known local banks, which indicates that we are now one step further to achieving cooperation the goal of creating the most professional solar station operating platform."
