PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
      This summary highlights information about Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited, or Yingli Green Energy, and Baoding Tianwei Yingli New Energy Resources Co., Ltd., or Tianwei Yingli, our principal operating subsidiary and about the offering contained elsewhere in this prospectus, and is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information and financial statements contained elsewhere in this prospectus. You should carefully read the entire prospectus before making an investment decision, especially the information presented under the heading “Risk Factors” and the consolidated financial statements and notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. Yingli Green Energy was incorporated on August 7, 2006. On September 5, 2006, Yingli Group, an entity controlled by Mr. Liansheng Miao, the chairperson of the board of directors and chief executive officer of Yingli Green Energy who also controls our controlling shareholder, Yingli Power, transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to Yingli Green Energy. As Yingli Group and Yingli Green Energy were entities under common control at the time of the transfer, the 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli was recorded by us at the historical cost to Yingli Group, which approximated the historical carrying values of the assets and liabilities of Tianwei Yingli. For financial statements reporting purposes, Tianwei Yingli was deemed to be our predecessor for periods prior to September 5, 2006. In our discussions of the year ended December 31, 2006, we refer to certain line items in the financial statements as “combined” for comparative purposes. These unaudited combined amounts represent the addition of the amounts for certain financial statement line items or captions of Tianwei Yingli, our predecessor, for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006, and the amounts for the corresponding financial statement line items or captions of Yingli Green Energy, for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006. For the period from August 7, 2006 through September 4, 2006, during which the financial statements of the predecessor and those of Yingli Green Energy overlap, Yingli Green Energy did not engage in any business or operations. The unaudited combined financial data for the year ended December 31, 2006 do not comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. We are including these unaudited combined amounts to supplementally provide information that we believe will be helpful to gaining a better understanding of our results of operations and improve the comparative analysis against the prior periods, each of which was for a full fiscal year. These unaudited combined amounts do not purport to represent what our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows would have been in such period if Yingli Group had transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us on January 1, 2006.  
 
      In this prospectus, except as otherwise indicated or as the context may otherwise require, all references to “Yingli Green Energy,” “we,” “the Company,” “us” and “our” refer to Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited and, unless otherwise indicated or as the context may otherwise require, to our predecessor, Tianwei Yingli, and its consolidated subsidiaries.  
Overview
      We are one of the leading vertically integrated photovoltaic, or PV, product manufacturers in China. Through Tianwei Yingli, our principal operating subsidiary based in China, we design, manufacture and sell PV modules, and design, assemble, sell and install PV systems that are connected to an electricity transmission grid or those that operate on a stand-alone basis. With an annual production capacity of 95 megawatts of polysilicon ingots and wafers, 90 megawatts of PV cells and 100 megawatts of PV modules as of the date of this prospectus, we believe we are currently one of the largest manufacturers of PV products in China as measured by annual production capacity. Except for the production of polysilicon materials that are used to manufacture polysilicon ingots and wafers, our products and services substantially cover the entire PV industry value chain from the manufacture of multicrystalline polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells, PV modules and PV systems to PV system installation. We believe we are one of the few large-scale PV companies in China to have adopted vertical integration as their business model. Our end-products include PV modules and PV systems in different sizes and power outputs. We sell PV modules under our own brand name, Yingli, to PV system integrators and distributors located in various markets around the world, including Germany, Spain, China and the United States.

Table of Contents

      In 2002, we began producing PV modules with an initial annual production capacity of three megawatts and have significantly expanded production capacities of our PV products in the past five years to the current level. In April 2006, we launched a new expansion project in Baoding, China to increase our annual production capacity of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules to 600 megawatts each by 2010.
      Historically, we have sold and installed PV systems in the western regions of China where substantial government-subsidized, rural electrification projects are underway. We also sell PV systems to mobile communications service providers in China for use across China and plan to export our PV systems into major international markets such as Germany, Spain and the United States. In order to promote the export of our PV systems, we have participated in the design and installation of large PV system projects undertaken by our customers overseas. For example, we cooperated with Solar-Energiedach GmbH NL in the design and installation of a one-megawatt PV system covering the roof of the Kaiserslautern soccer stadium in Germany, one of the FIFA World Cup 2006 venues. Historically, sales of PV systems by us have not been significant. However, we expect our sales of PV systems to increase although we expect such sales to remain relatively insignificant as a percentage of our net revenues in the near term.
      Our net revenues increased from RMB 120.5 million in 2004 to RMB 361.8 million in 2005 and on a combined basis to RMB 1,638.8 million (US$210.0 million) in 2006. Our income from operations increased from RMB 13.7 million in 2004 to RMB 83.7 million in 2005 and, on a combined basis, to RMB 366.9 million (US$47.0 million) in 2006, representing operating profit margins of 11.4%, 23.1% and 22.4%, respectively. Our net income was RMB 6.1 million in 2004, RMB 66.0 million in 2005, RMB 186.2 million (US$23.9 million) in the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and RMB 30.0 million (US$3.8 million) for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, representing net income profit margins of 5.1%, 18.2%, 21.1% and 4.0%, respectively.
Industry Background
      Solar power has recently emerged as one of the most rapidly growing renewable energy sources. Through a process known as the PV effect, electricity is generated by PV cells that convert sunlight into electricity. PV modules, which are panels composed of interconnected PV cells, are mounted in areas with direct exposure to the sun to generate electricity from sunlight. PV systems, which are composed of PV modules, related power electronics and other components, are used in residential, commercial and industrial applications and for customers who have no or limited access to an electricity transmission grid.
      Although PV technology has been used for several decades, the PV market grew significantly only in the past several years. According to Solarbuzz, an independent solar energy research and consulting firm, the global PV market, as measured by annual PV system installation, increased from 345 megawatts in 2001 to 1,744 megawatts in 2006. Solarbuzz’s “Balanced Energy” forecast scenario forecasted global PV industry revenues and PV system installations to be US$18.6 billion and 4,177 megawatts in 2011, respectively.
      We believe the following factors will continue to drive the demand in the global solar power industry, including the demand for our products and services:
  •  government subsidies and economic incentives;
 
  •  advances in technologies making solar power more cost-efficient;
 
  •  rising demand for and increasing costs of fossil energy resources;
 
  •  increasing environmental concerns over conventional energy; and
 
  •  narrowing cost differentials between solar and conventional energy sources.

Table of Contents

      We believe the following are the key challenges presently facing the solar power industry, including us:
  •  continuing reliance on government subsidies and economic incentives;
 
  •  need for further cost-competitiveness;
 
  •  raw materials supply shortage; and
 
  •  aesthetic concern.
Our Competitive Strengths
      We believe that our following strengths enable us to compete effectively and to capitalize on the rapid growth of the global PV market:
  •  vertically integrated business model;
 
  •  cost-effective and efficient manufacturing process;
 
  •  high-quality products and growing brand recognition;
 
  •  steadily improving research and development capability;
 
  •  established customer relationships; and
 
  •  experienced management team.
Our Strategies
      We seek to continue to be a leader in the development and manufacture of PV products by taking advantage of our high degree of vertical integration in the PV production process, which yields economies of scale and cost savings. More specifically, we plan to focus on the following areas:
  •  expand PV system sales to overseas markets;
 
  •  expand global reach for our products;
 
  •  secure and strengthen stable and long-term relationships with polysilicon suppliers;
 
  •  achieve technological advances through dedicated and continuous research and development efforts;
 
  •  increase production capacity; and
 
  •  expand market share in China.
Our Challenges
      The successful execution of our strategies is subject to certain risks, uncertainties and challenges, including:
  •  risks associated with our ability to obtain sufficient quantities of quality silicon raw materials in a timely manner;
 
  •  risks associated with the potential reduction in or discontinuation of government subsidies and economic incentives for solar energy applications which could reduce demand for our products and, in turn, our revenues;
 
  •  uncertainties associated with responding effectively to competitive pressures from our competitors in the PV modules and PV systems markets as well as from conventional energy and other renewable energy sources, including other solar energy systems;
 
  •  risks associated with our ability to expand our operations and manage such expansion effectively;

Table of Contents

  •  risks associated with our ability to successfully implement our overseas expansion;
 
  •  risks associated with our ability to improve manufacturing efficiency or yield commercially viable new products; and
 
  •  uncertainties associated with our ability to establish and maintain an effective internal control system and procedures.
      Please see “Risk Factors” and other information included in this prospectus for a detailed discussion of these and other risks, uncertainties and challenges.
Corporate Structure
      We were incorporated on August 7, 2006 in the Cayman Islands as part of a restructuring of the equity interest in our predecessor, Tianwei Yingli, to facilitate investments in Tianwei Yingli by foreign financial investors and the listing of our shares on an overseas stock market to achieve such investors’ investment goal and exit and liquidity strategies. As a result of the restructuring and subsequent private equity investments described in “Restructuring”:
  •  Yingli Power Holding Company Ltd., or Yingli Power, became our controlling shareholder, holding 56.44% of our issued and outstanding share capital on an as-converted, fully diluted basis immediately prior to this offering;
 
  •  on September 5, 2006, Yingli Group, an entity controlled by Mr. Liansheng Miao, our chairperson and chief executive officer, who also controls our controlling shareholder, Yingli Power, transferred to us its 51% controlling equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. As a result of such transfer, Tianwei Yingli became our subsidiary. For financial statements reporting purposes, Tianwei Yingli is deemed to be our predecessor;
 
  •  certain investors became holders of our Series A preferred shares, Series B preferred shares, warrants to purchase our ordinary shares and mandatory convertible bonds convertible into our ordinary shares, which represent on an aggregate basis 41.09% of our issued and outstanding share capital on an as-converted, fully diluted basis immediately prior to this offering;
 
  •  our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli increased to 62.13% and would increase to 70.11% upon the completion of relevant PRC registration procedures for the additional equity contribution into Tianwei Yingli which was funded by the issuance of the Series B preferred shares and other financings as described in “Restructuring — Private Equity Investments and Other Financing Following the Restructuring;” and
 
  •  Tianwei Yingli became a Sino-foreign equity joint venture enterprise established under PRC law and subject to certain PRC laws and regulations as described in “PRC Government Regulations — Equity Joint Ventures.”
      Our predecessor, Tianwei Yingli, was established as a PRC limited liability company in August 1998 to manufacture multicrystalline silicon ingots and wafers, PV cells, PV modules and PV systems. Tianwei Yingli holds a 64% equity interest in Chengdu Yingli New Energy Resources Co., Ltd., or Chengdu Yingli, a PRC limited liability company in Sichuan, China, which sells PV modules and PV systems in Sichuan Province. In addition, Tianwei Yingli holds a 50% equity interest in Tibet Tianwei Yingli New Energy Resources Co., Ltd., or Tibetan Yingli, a company established in Tibet, which sells PV systems in Tibet.

SUMMARY FINANCIAL AND OPERATING DATA
      The following tables present the summary consolidated financial information of us and our predecessor, Tianwei Yingli. You should read this information together with the consolidated financial statements and related notes and the information under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included elsewhere in this prospectus. The historic results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in the future.
      Yingli Green Energy was incorporated on August 7, 2006. For the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through September 4, 2006, Yingli Green Energy did not engage in any business or operations. On September 5, 2006, Yingli Group, an entity controlled by Mr. Liansheng Miao, our chairperson and chief executive officer, who also controls our controlling shareholder, Yingli Power, transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to Yingli Green Energy. For further details on this transaction, see “Restructuring.” As Yingli Group and we were entities under common control at the time of the transfer, the transfer of 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli was recorded by us at the historical cost to Yingli Group. For financial statements reporting purposes, Tianwei Yingli is deemed to be our predecessor for periods prior to September 5, 2006.
      The summary consolidated statement of income data and other consolidated financial data for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 and for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and the summary consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2004 and 2005 and September 4, 2006 have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of our predecessor, Tianwei Yingli, included elsewhere in the prospectus. The summary consolidated statement of income data (other than per ADS data) and other consolidated financial data for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 and the summary consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2006 have been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. The consolidated financial statements of each of Yingli Green Energy and Tianwei Yingli have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
      The unaudited combined summary consolidated statement of income data and other consolidated financial data represent the addition of the amounts of certain financial statement line items or captions of Tianwei Yingli, our predecessor, for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006, and the amounts for the corresponding line items or captions of Yingli Green Energy for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006. For the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through September 4, 2006, during which the financial statements of the predecessor and those of Yingli Green Energy overlap, Yingli Green Energy did not engage in any business or operations. The unaudited combined summary consolidated statement of income data and other consolidated financial data for the year ended December 31, 2006 do not comply with U.S. GAAP. We are including these unaudited combined financial data that we believe is helpful to gaining a better understanding of results of operations and to improve the comparative analysis against the prior periods, each of which included a full fiscal year. These unaudited combined amounts do not purport to represent what our financial position, results of operations or cash flows would have been if Yingli Group had transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us on January 1, 2006.

RISK FACTORS
      An investment in our ADSs involves significant risks. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus, including the consolidated financial statements of Yingli Green Energy and the consolidated financial statements of its predecessor, Tianwei Yingli, and related notes included elsewhere in the prospectus, before you decide to buy our ADSs. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially harmed, the trading price of our ADSs could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment.
Risks Related to Us and the PV Industry
          We are currently experiencing and may continue to experience an industry-wide shortage of polysilicon. Our failure to obtain sufficient quantities of polysilicon in a timely manner could disrupt our operations, prevent us from operating at full capacity or limit our ability to expand as planned, which will reduce, and limit the growth of, our manufacturing output and revenue.
      Polysilicon is the most important raw material used in the production of our PV products. To maintain competitive manufacturing operations, we depend on timely delivery by our suppliers of polysilicon in sufficient quantities. The global supply of polysilicon is controlled by a limited number of producers, and there is currently an industry-wide shortage of polysilicon. The current shortage of polysilicon is the result of a combination of factors, including a significant increase in demand for polysilicon due to the rapid growth of the PV industry, the significant lead time required for building additional capacity for polysilicon production and significant competing demand for polysilicon from the semiconductor industry.
      Partly as a result of the industry-wide shortage, we have from time to time faced the prospect of a shortage of polysilicon and late or failed delivery of polysilicon from suppliers. We may experience actual shortage of polysilicon or late or failed delivery in the future for the following reasons, among others. First, the terms of our polysilicon contracts with, or purchase orders to, our suppliers may be altered or cancelled by the suppliers with limited or no penalty to them, in which case we may not be able to recover damages fully or at all. Second, we generally do not have a history of long-term relationships with polysilicon suppliers who may be able to meet our polysilicon needs consistently or on an emergency basis. Third, compared to us, many of our competitors who also purchase polysilicon from our suppliers have had longer and stronger relationships with and greater buying power and bargaining leverage over our suppliers.
      If we fail to obtain delivery of polysilicon in amounts and according to time schedules as agreed with the suppliers, or at all, we may be forced to reduce production or secure alternative sources of polysilicon in the spot market, which may not provide polysilicon in amounts required by us or at comparable or affordable prices, or at all. Our failure to obtain the required amounts of polysilicon on time and at affordable prices can seriously hamper our ability to meet our contractual obligations to deliver PV products to our customers. Any failure by us to meet such obligations could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, retention of customers, market share, business and results of operations and may subject us to claims from our customers and other disputes. In addition, our failure to obtain sufficient polysilicon will result in underutilization of our existing and new production facilities and an increase of our marginal production cost, and may prevent us from implementing capacity expansion as currently planned. Any of the above events could have a material adverse effect on our growth, profitability and results of operations.
          The price of polysilicon is rising and we may not be able to pass on the increase in raw material costs to our customers, which may reduce our profitability.
      The industry-wide shortage of polysilicon has resulted in a significant increase in polysilicon prices. Our average purchase price of polysilicon per kilogram has increased by 106.5% in 2005 compared to 2004 and 185.5% in 2006 compared to 2005. We believe the average price of polysilicon will remain high in the near term compared to its historical levels. The increasing price of polysilicon has largely contributed to the increase in our production costs for PV modules in the past three years and in the first quarter of 2007 and

14


Table of Contents

may continue to have the same effect in the future, notwithstanding our continuing efforts to use polysilicon more efficiently.
      Despite the rise in the price of polysilicon, PV module manufacturers worldwide are expanding their production capacities in response to the growing popularity worldwide of PV products. We believe that such capacity expansion, in addition to a decline in government subsidies to promote solar energy consumption in certain countries, will cause a gradual decline in the price of PV modules, which may more than offset any cost savings from technological improvements that lead to a more efficient use of polysilicon. In addition, in case of a general decline in the price of PV modules, we may not be able to pass to our customers our increased production costs resulting from, among others, the increased costs of polysilicon. Any significant decline of the price for PV modules, together with the rising production costs for PV modules, would materially and adversely affect our profitability and results of operations.
          Advance payment arrangements between us and most of our polysilicon suppliers and equipment suppliers expose us to the credit risks of such suppliers, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our liquidity.
      Under existing supply contracts with most of our polysilicon suppliers and our equipment suppliers, consistent with the industry practice, we make advance payments to our suppliers prior to the scheduled delivery dates for polysilicon and equipment. In many such cases, we make the advance payments without receiving collateral for such payments. As a result, our claims for such payments would rank as unsecured claims, which would expose us to the credit risks of our suppliers in the event of their insolvency or bankruptcy. Under such circumstances, our claims against the suppliers would rank below those of secured creditors, which would undermine our chances of obtaining the return of our advance payments. Accordingly, a default by our suppliers may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.
          A significant reduction in or discontinuation of government subsidies and economic incentives may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
      Demand for our products depends substantially on government incentives aimed to promote greater use of solar power. In many countries in which we are currently, or intend to become, active, the PV markets, particularly the market of on-grid PV systems, would not be commercially viable without government incentives. This is because the cost of generating electricity from solar power currently exceeds, and we believe will continue to exceed for the foreseeable future, the costs of generating electricity from conventional or non-solar renewable energy sources.
      The scope of the government incentives for solar power depends, to a large extent, on political and policy developments in a given country related to environmental concerns, which could lead to a significant reduction in or a discontinuation of the support for renewable energies in such country. For example, in Germany, the feed-in tariffs, which require grid system operators to purchase electricity from renewable energy sources at fixed rates, are subject to scheduled reviews by the end of 2007 under the Renewable Energies Act. Utility companies and grid operators burdened by the minimum feed-in tariffs under the Renewable Energies Act in Germany or by comparable regulations in other countries may lobby for a reduction in or cancellation of such tariffs. In addition, in certain countries, including countries to which we export PV products, government financial support of PV products has been, and may continue to be, challenged as being unconstitutional or otherwise unlawful. A significant reduction in the scope or discontinuation of government incentive programs, such as the Renewable Energies Act, would have a materially adverse effect on the demand for our PV modules as well as our results of operations.

          We depend, and expect to continue to depend, on a limited number of customers for a high percentage of our revenues. As a result, the loss of, or a significant reduction in orders from, any of these customers would significantly reduce our revenues and harm our results of operations.
      We currently expect that our results of operations will, for the foreseeable future, continue to depend on the sale of our PV modules to a relatively small number of customers until we become successful in significantly expanding our customer base or diversifying product offerings. In 2005 and 2006, sales to our customers that individually exceeded 10% of our net revenues accounted for approximately 38.7% and 38.9%, respectively, of our net revenues. Our relationships with such key customers have been developed over a short period of time and are generally in their early stages. We cannot assure you that these customers will continue to generate significant revenues for us or that we will be able to maintain these customer relationships. In addition, our business is affected by competition in the market for the products that many of our major customers sell, and any decline in the businesses of our customers could reduce the purchase of our products by these customers. The loss of sales to any of these customers could also have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects and results of operations.
          We face intense competition in the PV modules and PV system markets and our PV products compete with different solar energy systems as well as other renewable energy sources in the alternative energy market. If we fail to adapt to changing market conditions and to compete successfully with existing or new competitors, our business prospects and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.
      The PV market is intensely competitive and rapidly evolving. The number of PV product manufacturers is rapidly increasing due to the growth of actual and forecast demand for PV products and the relatively low barriers to entry. If we fail to attract and retain customers in our target markets for our current and future core products, namely PV modules and PV systems, we will be unable to increase our revenues and market share.
      Since 2004, a substantial majority of our revenues have been derived from overseas markets, particularly Germany, and increasingly Spain and the United States, and we expect these trends to continue. A substantial portion of our revenues is also derived from China. In these markets, we often compete with local and international producers of PV products that are substantially larger than us, including the solar energy divisions of large conglomerates such as BP Solar and Sharp Corporation, PV module manufacturers such as Sunpower Corp. and Suntech Power Holdings Co., Ltd., and integrated PV product manufacturers such as SolarWorld AG, Renewable Energy Corporation and Trina Solar Limited.
      We may also face competition from new entrants to the PV market, including those that offer more advanced technological solutions or that have greater financial resources, such as semiconductor manufacturers, several of which have announced their intention to start production of PV cells and PV modules. A significant number of our competitors are developing or currently producing products based on the more advanced PV technologies, including thin film solar module, amorphous silicon, string ribbon and nano technologies, which may eventually offer cost advantages over the crystalline polysilicon technologies currently used by us. A widespread adoption of any of these technologies could result in a rapid decline in our position in the renewable energy market and our revenues if we fail to adopt such technologies. In addition, like us, some of our competitors have become, or are becoming, vertically integrated in the PV industry value chain, from silicon ingot manufacturing to PV system sales and installation. This could further erode our competitive advantage. Furthermore, the entire PV industry also faces competition from conventional energy and non-solar renewable energy providers.
      Many of our existing and potential competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, manufacturing and other resources than we do. The greater size of many of our competitors provides them with cost advantages as a result of their economies of scale and their ability to obtain volume discounts and purchase raw materials at lower prices. For example, our competitors that also manufacture semiconductors may compete with us for the procurement of silicon raw materials. As a result, such competitors may have stronger bargaining power with their suppliers and have an advantage over us in pricing as well as securing sufficient supply of polysilicon during times of shortage. Many of our competitors also have better brand

16

name recognition, more established distribution networks, larger customer bases or more in-depth knowledge of the target markets. As a result, they may be able to devote greater resources to the research and development, promotion and sale of their products and respond more quickly to evolving industry standards and changes in market conditions as compared to us. Our failure to adapt to changing market conditions and to compete successfully with existing or future competitors would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects and results of operations.
          Our new expansion plans require substantial capital expenditures, significant engineering efforts and dedicated management attention, and our failure to complete these plans would have a material adverse effect on the growth of our sales and earnings.
      Our future success depends, to a large extent, on our ability to expand our production capacity. If we are unable to do so, we will not be able to attain the desired level of economies of scale in our operations or cut the marginal production cost to the level necessary to effectively maintain our pricing and other competitive advantages. We expect that we will make substantial capital expenditures for our future growth. This expansion has required and will continue to require substantial capital expenditures, significant engineering efforts and dedicated management attention, and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including:
  •  we may need to continue to contribute significant additional capital to Tianwei Yingli through the issuance of our equity or debt securities in order to finance the costs of developing the new facilities, which may not be conducted on reasonable terms or may not be conducted at all, and which could be dilutive to our existing shareholders. Such capital contribution would also require PRC regulatory approvals in order for the proceeds from such issuances to be transferred to Tianwei Yingli, which approvals may not be granted in a timely manner or at all;
 
  •  we will be required to obtain governmental approvals, permits or documents of similar nature in respect of any new expansion projects, but it is uncertain whether such approvals, permits or documents will be obtained on time or at all;
 
  •  we may experience cost overruns, delays, equipment problems and other operating difficulties;
 
  •  we are using new equipment and technology to lower our unit capital and operating costs, but we cannot assure you that such effort will be successful; and
 
  •  we may not have sufficient management resources to properly oversee capacity expansion as currently planned.
      Any of these or similar difficulties could significantly delay or otherwise constrain our ability to undertake our capacity expansion plans as currently planned, which in turn would limit our ability to increase sales, reduce marginal manufacturing costs or otherwise improve our prospects and profitability.
          We may undertake acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or other strategic alliances, which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to manage our business, and such undertakings may end up being unsuccessful.
      Our strategy includes plans to grow both organically and through acquisitions, participation in joint ventures or other strategic alliances with suppliers or other companies in China and overseas along the PV industry value chain. Joint ventures and strategic alliances may expose us to new operational, regulatory and market risks as well as risks associated with additional capital requirements.
      Acquisitions of companies or businesses and participation in joint ventures or other strategic alliances are subject to considerable risks, including:
  •  our inability to integrate new operations, personnel, products, services and technologies;
 
  •  unforeseen or hidden liabilities, including exposure to lawsuits associated with newly acquired companies;
 
  •  the diversion of resources from our existing businesses;

17


Table of Contents

  •  disagreement with joint venture or strategic alliance partners;
 
  •  contravention of regulations governing cross-border investment;
 
  •  failure to comply with laws and regulations of the overseas markets into which we expand;
 
  •  our inability to generate sufficient revenues to offset the costs and expenses of acquisitions, strategic investments, joint venture formations or other strategic alliances; and
 
  •  potential loss of, or harm to, employees or customer relationships.
      Any of these events could disrupt our ability to manage our business, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Such risks could also result in our failure to derive the intended benefits of the acquisitions, strategic investments, joint ventures or strategic alliances and we may be unable to recover our investment in such initiatives.
          Our product development initiatives may fail to improve manufacturing efficiency or yield commercially viable new products.
      We are making efforts to improve our manufacturing processes and improve the quality of our PV products. We plan to undertake research and development to continuously reduce the thickness of our wafers and develop more advanced products. We are also exploring ways to improve our PV module production. Additional research and development efforts will be required before our products in development may be manufactured and sold at a commercially viable level. We cannot assure you that such efforts will improve the efficiency of manufacturing processes or yield new products that are commercially viable. In addition, the failure to realize the intended benefits from our product development initiatives could limit our ability to keep pace with the rapid technological changes, which in turn would hurt our business and prospects.
          Failure to achieve satisfactory output of our PV modules and PV systems could result in a decline of sales.
      The manufacture of PV modules and PV systems is a highly complex process. Deviations in the manufacturing process can cause a substantial decrease in output and, in some cases, disrupt production significantly or result in no output. We have from time to time experienced lower-than-anticipated manufacturing output during the ramp-up of production lines. This often occurs during the production of new products, the installation of new equipment or the implementation of new process technologies. As we bring additional lines or facilities into production, we may operate at less than intended capacity during the ramp-up period and produce less output than expected. This would result in higher marginal production costs which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.
      We believe the efficient use of polysilicon is essential to reducing our manufacturing costs. We have been exploring several measures to improve the efficient use of polysilicon in our manufacturing process, including reducing the thickness of silicon wafers. However, the use of thinner silicon wafers may have unforeseen negative consequences, such as increased breakage and reduced reliability and conversion efficiency of our PV cells and modules. As a result, reducing the thickness of silicon wafers may not lead to the cost reductions we expect to achieve, while at the same time it may reduce customer satisfaction with our products, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our customer relationships, reputation and results of operations.
          Unsatisfactory performance or defects in our products may cause us to incur warranty expenses, damage our reputation and cause our sales to decline.
      Our PV modules are typically sold with a two-year limited warranty for defects in materials and workmanship, and a 10-year and 25-year warranty against declines of initial power generation capacity by more than 10.0% and 20.0%, respectively. As a result, we bear the risk of extensive warranty claims long after we sell our products and recognize revenues. As we began selling PV modules only since January 2003, none of our PV modules has been in use for more than five years. For our PV systems in China, we provide

18


Table of Contents

a one- to five-year limited warranty against defects in modules, storage batteries and certain other system parts. As of December 31, 2005 and 2006, our accrued warranty costs amounted to RMB 5.0 million and RMB 20.7 million (US$2.7 million), respectively. Because our products have only been in use for a relatively short period of time, our assumptions regarding the durability and reliability of our products may not be accurate, and because our products have relatively long warranty periods, we cannot assure you that the amount of accrued warranty by us for our products will be adequate in light of the actual performance of our products. If we experience a significant increase in warranty claims, we may incur significant repair and replacement costs associated with such claims. Furthermore, widespread product failures will damage our reputation and customer relationships and may cause our sales to decline, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
          We have limited insurance coverage and may incur losses resulting from product liability claims, business interruption or natural disasters.
      We are exposed to risks associated with product liability claims if the use of our PV products results in injury. Since our PV products are components of electricity producing devices, it is possible that users could be injured or killed by our PV products, whether by product malfunctions, defects, improper installation or other causes. We do not maintain any business interruption insurance coverage. As a result, we may have to pay, out of our own funds, for financial and other losses, damages and liabilities, including those in connection with or resulting from third-party product liability claims and those caused by natural disasters and other events beyond our control, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
          We obtain some of the equipment used in our manufacturing process from a small number of selected suppliers and if our equipment is damaged or otherwise unavailable, our ability to deliver products timely will suffer, which in turn could result in cancellations of orders and loss of revenue for us.
      Some of the equipment used in our production of polysilicon ingots, wafers, PV cells and PV modules, such as ingot cashing furnaces, diffusion furnaces and wire saws, have been customized to our specifications, are not readily available from multiple vendors and would be difficult to repair or replace. If any of our key equipment suppliers were to experience financial difficulties or go out of business, we may have difficulties with repairing or replacing our customized equipment in the event of any damage to or a breakdown of such equipment. In such cases, our ability to deliver products timely would suffer, which in turn could result in cancellations of orders from our customers and loss of revenue for us. In addition, the equipment we need for our expansion is in high demand. A supplier’s failure to deliver the equipment timely, in sufficient quantity and on terms acceptable to us could delay our capacity expansion and otherwise disrupt our production schedule or increase our production costs.
          While we currently require most customers to pay a portion of the purchase price in advance when they place orders with us, this business practice may change in the future and, as a result, our working capital requirement could materially increase.
      We currently require most of our customers to make an advance payment of a certain percentage of their orders, a business practice that helps us to manage our accounts receivable. The business practice of receiving advance payments from customers helps us to prepay our suppliers and reduce the amount of funds that we need to finance our working capital requirements. However, if the supply of PV products outpaces the demand for PV products and, as a result, our customers gain more bargaining power in negotiating payment terms, our customers may discontinue the practice of making advance payments. We would then be required to obtain more working capital and our accounts receivable and allowances for doubtful accounts may also increase significantly as more of our customers pay on credit. In such circumstances, we may need to arrange additional financing in material amounts to meet our working capital needs, the interest expenses of which could decrease our cash flows from operations as well as our profitability. We may not be able to secure such additional financing on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to us or at all.

          Fluctuations in exchange rates could adversely affect our results of operations
      Most of our sales are currently denominated in U.S. dollars and Euros, and to a lesser extent, in Renminbi, while a substantial portion of our costs and expenses is denominated in U.S. dollars, Renminbi, Japanese Yen and Euros. Under applicable PRC laws, regulations and rules, all foreign currencies received by us must be converted into Renminbi within a prescribed period of time unless specifically approved by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE. In addition, we must convert Renminbi into foreign currencies to make payments to overseas suppliers. Therefore, fluctuations in currency exchange rates could have a significant effect on our results of operations due to mismatches among various foreign currency-denominated transactions, including sales of PV modules in overseas markets and purchases of silicon raw materials and equipment, and the time gap between the signing of the related contracts and cash receipts and disbursements related to such contracts.
      We incurred net foreign exchange losses of RMB 1.8 million in 2005 and RMB 8.1 million (US$1.0 million) in 2006 due to the adjustment of the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and Renminbi, effective July 21, 2005. We have not used any forward contracts, currency options or borrowings to hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. We cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on our net foreign exchange losses in the future. We may choose to reduce the effect of such exposure through hedging arrangements, but because of the limited availability of hedging instruments in China, we cannot assure you that we will find a hedging arrangement suitable to us, or that such hedging activities will be effective in managing our foreign exchange risk.
          We face risks associated with the marketing and sale of our PV products internationally, and if we are unable to effectively manage these risks, our ability to expand our business abroad will be limited.
      In 2005 and 2006, we sold 84.3% and 95.1%, respectively, of our products to customers outside of China, including customers in Germany, Spain and the United States. We intend to further grow our business activities in international markets, in particular in the United States, Spain and selected countries in southern Europe and Southeast Asia where we believe the PV market is likely to grow significantly in the near term. The marketing and sale of our PV products to international markets expose us to a number of risks, including, but not limited, to:
  •  fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;
 
  •  increased costs associated with maintaining the ability to understand the local markets and follow their trends, as well as develop and maintain effective marketing and distributing presence in various countries;
 
  •  the availability of advances from our customers;
 
  •  providing customer service and support in these markets;
 
  •  difficulty with staffing and managing overseas operations;
 
  •  failure to develop appropriate risk management and internal control structures tailored to overseas operations;
 
  •  difficulty and cost relating to compliance with the different commercial and legal requirements of the overseas markets in which we offer or plan to offer our products and services;
 
  •  failure to obtain or maintain certifications for our products or services in these markets;
 
  •  inability to obtain, maintain or enforce intellectual property rights;
 
  •  unanticipated changes in prevailing economic conditions and regulatory requirements; and
 
  •  trade barriers such as export requirements, tariffs, taxes and other restrictions and expenses.
      Our business in foreign markets requires us to respond timely and effectively to rapid changes in market conditions in the relevant countries. Our overall success as a global business depends, in part, on our ability to succeed in different legal, regulatory, economic, social and political conditions. We may not be able to develop and implement policies and strategies that will be effective in each location where it does business. To the extent that we conduct business in foreign countries by means of participations or joint ventures, there

are additional risks. See “ — We may undertake acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or other strategic alliances, which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to manage our business, and such undertakings may end up being unsuccessful.” A change in one or more of the factors described above may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
          We have significant outstanding short-term borrowings, and we may not be able to obtain extensions when they mature.
      Our short-term borrowings from banks outstanding as of December 31, 2005 and 2006 were RMB 279.0 million and RMB 255.3 million (US$32.7 million), respectively, and bore a weighted average interest rate of 5.42% and 5.99%, respectively, of which RMB 222.0 million and RMB 221.0 million (US$28.3 million) were arranged or guaranteed by related parties as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Other non-bank short-term borrowings, consisting principally of loans from a customer, a government body and loans arranged by Mr. Liansheng Miao, the chairperson of our board of directors and our chief executive officer, amounted to RMB 67.7 million and RMB 12.0 million (US$1.5 million), respectively, as of December 31, 2005 and 2006. We also have short-term borrowings from related parties, the outstanding amount of which was RMB 100.4 million and RMB 31.8 million (US$4.1 million) as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively, which represents 22.4% and 10.6% of our short-term borrowings, as of the same dates, respectively.
      Generally, these loans contain no specific renewal terms, although we have traditionally negotiated renewal of certain of the loans shortly before they mature. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to renew these loans in the future as they mature. In particular, a substantial portion of our short-term borrowings are arranged or guaranteed by Tianwei Baobian or its controlling shareholder, Tianwei Group. Since Tianwei Baobian is no longer Tianwei Yingli’s controlling equity interest holder, it or Tianwei Group may be less inclined to guarantee bank borrowings of Tianwei Yingli. If we are unable to obtain renewals of these loans or sufficient alternative funding on reasonable terms from banks or related or third parties, we will have to repay these borrowings with additional funding from Tianwei Yingli’s equity interest holders, including us, or cash generated by our future operations, if any. We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations to repay these borrowings.
          Most of our production, storage, administrative and research and development facilities are located in close proximity to one another in an industrial park in China. Any damage or disruption at these facilities would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
      Our production, storage, administrative, research and development facilities are located in close proximity to one another in an industrial park in Baoding, Hebei Province, China. A natural disaster or other unanticipated catastrophic event, including power interruption, and war, could significantly disrupt our ability to manufacture our products and operate our business. If any of our production facilities or material equipment were to experience any significant damage or downtime, we would be unable to meet our production targets and our business would suffer.
      Our manufacturing processes generate noise, waste water, gaseous and other industrial wastes. This creates a risk of work-related accidents and places high demands on work safety measures. No major injuries have occurred at our facilities in connection with work-related accidents to date. Nonetheless, we cannot assure you that accidents involving serious or fatal injuries will not occur at our facilities. Furthermore, there is a risk of contamination and environmental damage associated with hazardous substances used in our production processes. The materialization of any of the above risks could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
          Our existing controlling shareholders have significant influence over our management and their interests may not be aligned with our interests or the interests of our other shareholders.
      Yingli Power, which is 100% owned by Liansheng Miao, the chairperson of our board of directors and our chief executive officer and the vice chairperson and the chief executive officer of Tianwei Yingli,

21


Table of Contents

currently beneficially owns 92.73% of our outstanding ordinary shares (including restricted shares granted to the trustee for the benefit of certain of our directors, officers and employees) and 56.44% of our outstanding share capital on an as-converted, fully diluted basis, and will beneficially own approximately           % of our outstanding ordinary shares upon completion of this offering. The interests of this shareholder may conflict with the interests of our other shareholders. Yingli Power has significant influence over us, including on matters relating to mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, election of directors and other significant corporate actions. This concentration of ownership may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of us, which could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of us or of our assets and might reduce the price of our ADSs. These actions may be taken even if they are opposed by our other shareholders, including those who purchase ADSs in this offering.
          You will experience substantial dilution immediately upon Tianwei Baobian’s exercise of the subscription right that we granted under the joint venture contract with Tianwei Baobian.
      Under a PRC law-governed joint venture contract between us and Tianwei Baobian entered in August 2006, we granted to Tianwei Baobian a right to subscribe for ordinary shares newly issued by us in exchange for all but not part of Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli on the condition that Tianwei Baobian has obtained all necessary approvals from the relevant PRC government authorities for acquiring our shares after completion of this offering and listing of our ADSs on the NYSE. If Tianwei Baobian exercises the subscription right, we will be obligated to issue such number of our ordinary shares that represent the value of Tianwei Baobian’s interest in Tianwei Yingli according to a pre-agreed formula. Such number of new shares will be substantial. See “Restructuring — Joint Venture Contract — Subscription Right.” As a result, the equity interest that you hold in us in the form of ADSs will be substantially diluted.
          We may not be able to obtain adequate funding to acquire the equity interest in Tianwei Yingli held by Tianwei Baobian, and if we issue new shares to raise funds to acquire Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest, you may experience substantial dilution.
      Under the joint venture contract entered into between Tianwei Baobian and us, Tianwei Baobian may request us to make best efforts to purchase all, but not part, of its then-owned equity interest in Tianwei Yingli if Tianwei Baobian fails to exercise the right to subscribe for newly issued ordinary shares of us for any reason within 300 days after completion of our initial public offering and the listing of our ADSs on the NYSE. The price will be decided by mutual agreement between Tianwei Baobian and us based on the then fair market value of the equity interest in Tianwei Yingli held by Tianwei Baobian and in accordance with the requirements of relevant laws and regulations of the PRC. If the purchase of Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli is required to be paid in cash, we may not be able to obtain adequate funding in time and on terms acceptable to us, if at all, to pay for such purchase price. In addition, we may decide to issue new shares to raise the funds required to pay the purchase price to Tianwei Baobian. If we choose to do so, the equity interest you hold in us may be substantially diluted immediately upon our issuance of new shares.
          Tianwei Baobian has significant influence over Tianwei Yingli, our principal operating entity, from which we derive substantially all of our revenue and earnings, and Tianwei Baobian may influence Tianwei Yingli from taking actions that are in the best interest of us or Tianwei Yingli, which could result in a material adverse effect on our or Tianwei Yingli’s business prospects, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, Tianwei Baobian will have significant influence over us if it exercises the subscription right, and Tianwei Baobian’s interests may not be aligned with our interests or the interests of our other shareholders.
      Tianwei Baobian currently owns a 37.87% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, our principal operating entity from which we derive substantially all of our revenue and earnings. Tianwei Baobian has significant influence over Tianwei Yingli through its board representation in Tianwei Yingli and other rights in accordance with the joint venture contract with us and the articles of association of Tianwei Yingli.

Table of Contents

      Tianwei Baobian is entitled to appoint three of the seven directors of Tianwei Yingli. Tianwei Baobian is also entitled to appoint a director to serve as the chairperson of the board of Tianwei Yingli. Tianwei Baobian may have different views and approaches with respect to the management and operation of Tianwei Yingli from those of us. Tianwei Baobian may disagree with us in the management and operation of Tianwei Yingli and may vote against actions that we believe are in the best interest of Tianwei Yingli or us. For example, directors appointed by Tianwei Baobian may vote against matters that require unanimous approval of all directors. Directors appointed by Tianwei Baobian may also hinder or delay adoption of relevant resolutions by not attending a board meeting, thereby preventing achievement of a quorum and forcing the meeting to be postponed for no more than seven days. See “Restructuring — Joint Venture Contract — Tianwei Yingli’s Management Structure — Board of Directors.” Due to Tianwei Baobian’s ability to exercise influence over Tianwei Yingli through its appointed directors, and through its other rights under the joint venture contract, any significant deterioration of our relationship or our disagreement with Tianwei Baobian may cause disruption to Tianwei Yingli’s business, which could in turn result in a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      Tianwei Baobian may also have disagreement or dispute with us with respect to our respective rights and obligations on matters such as the exercise of Tianwei Baobian’s right to subscribe for ordinary shares newly issued by us in exchange for its equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Except in limited circumstances, we may not be able to unilaterally terminate the joint venture contract in the event of such disagreement or dispute even if such termination would be in our best interest. See “Restructuring — Joint Venture Contract — Unilateral Termination of the Joint Venture Contract.” Any such disputes may result in costly and time-consuming litigations or other dispute resolution proceedings which may significantly divert the efforts and resources of our management and disrupt our business operations.
      In addition, Tianwei Baobian may transfer all or a part of its equity interest in Tianwei Yingli pursuant to the joint venture contract entered into between Tianwei Baobian and us. If we fail to exercise our right of first refusal in accordance with the procedures set forth in the joint venture contract and are thus deemed to have consented to any such proposed transfer by Tianwei Baobian to a third party or if Tianwei Baobian transfers its equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to its affiliates, such third party or such Tianwei Baobian’s affiliate will become a holder of Tianwei Yingli’s equity interest. The interests of such third party or such Tianwei Baobian’s affiliate may not be aligned with our interests or the interest of Tianwei Yingli. See “Restructuring — Joint Venture Contract — Transfer of Equity Interests in Tianwei Yingli — Right of First Refusal.”
      Furthermore, Tianwei Baobian may exercise the subscription right, and if it exercises the subscription right, it will become a significant shareholder of us. Once Tianwei Baobian becomes our shareholder, it will have significant influence over our and Tianwei Yingli’s business, including decisions regarding mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our or Tianwei Yingli’s assets, election of directors and other significant corporate actions. If Tianwei Baobian becomes our shareholder, its interests may not be aligned with the interests of our other shareholders. This concentration of ownership may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of us, which could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of us and might reduce the price of our ADSs.
      There has been negative media coverage concerning the corporate affairs of Tianwei Baobian. For example, in October 2006, there were news articles containing allegations, among others, that Tianwei Baobian had materially overstated its results of operations related to the export sales of its PV product components and its local tax rates in its published financial statements. We cannot assure you that there will not be similar or other negative media coverage related to Tianwei Baobian. Since Tianwei Baobian and we together hold all of Tianwei Yingli’s equity interests, such media coverage, whether or not accurate and whether or not specifically applicable to us, may have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition and the price of our ADSs.

          We have no legal right to prevent Tianwei Baobian from entering into a competing business with us and if Tianwei Baobian chooses to do so, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
      Our joint venture contract with Tianwei Baobian and Tianwei Yingli’s articles of association do not impose non-competition restrictions upon Tianwei Baobian. Tianwei Baobian’s current principal business is the manufacture of large electricity transformers but Tianwei Baobian may enter into the PV business directly or through acquisitions of or strategic alliances with an entity that is engaged in PV business. For example, on December 1, 2006, Tianwei Baobian announced that it acquired a controlling interest in a manufacturer of PV products in Tibet. If Tianwei Baobian chooses to further expand into the PV business, including the manufacture of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells or PV modules, it may compete with us for both supply of polysilicon and customers and we may not have any legal right to prevent Tianwei Baobian from doing so. Because of Tianwei Baobian’s familiarity with and its ability to influence Tianwei Yingli’s business, competition from Tianwei Baobian could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
          The grant of employee share options and other share-based compensation could adversely affect our net income.
      We adopted our 2006 stock incentive plan in December 2006. Our board of directors approved in April 2007 and our shareholders approved in May 2007 the amendment No. 1 to the 2006 stock incentive plan to increase the number of ordinary shares we are authorized to issue under the 2006 stock incentive plan. Under the 2006 stock incentive plan, as amended, we may grant to our directors, employees and consultants up to 2,715,243 restricted shares and options to purchase up to 5,525,415 of our ordinary shares. As of the date of this prospectus, we have granted to four executive officers options to purchase 610,929 ordinary shares in the aggregate and an aggregate of 2,621,060 restricted shares to the trustee for the benefit of 70 directors, officers and employees. Subject to the completion of this offering, we will grant options to purchase an aggregate of 115,000 ordinary shares to three independent directors and one key employee. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Statement No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payments,” or SFAS No. 123R, we account for compensation costs for all share options including share options granted to our directors and employees using a fair-value based method, which may have a material and adverse effect on our reported earnings. Moreover, the additional expenses associated with share-based compensation may reduce the attractiveness of such incentive plan to us. However, if we reduce the scope of our stock incentive plan, we may not be able to attract and retain key personnel, as share options are an important tool to recruit and retain qualified and desirable employees.
          Our results of operations are difficult to predict, and if we do not meet the market expectations, the price of our ADSs will likely decline.
      Our results of operations are difficult to predict and may fluctuate from time to time. It is possible that our results of operations in some reporting periods will be below market expectations. Our results of operations will be affected by a number of factors as set forth in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Overview.” If our results of operations for a particular reporting period are lower than the market expectations for such reporting period, investors are likely to react negatively, and as a result, the price of our ADSs may materially decline.
          Evaluating our business and prospects may be difficult because of our limited operating history.
      There is limited historical information available about us upon which you can base your evaluation of our business and prospects. We started selling PV modules in January 2003 and have experienced a high growth rate since then. As a result, our historical results of operations may not provide a meaningful basis for evaluating our business, financial performance and prospects. We may not be able to achieve a similar growth rate in future periods and at higher volumes. Accordingly, you should not rely on our results of operations

24


Table of Contents

for any prior periods as an indication of our future performance. You should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks, expenses and challenges that we will face as an early-stage company seeking to develop and manufacture new products in a rapidly growing market.
          Our lack of patent protection inside and outside of China may undermine our competitive position and subject us to intellectual property disputes with third parties, both of which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
      We do not have, and have not applied for, any patents for our proprietary technologies whether inside or outside of China, but relies primarily on trade secret protections, employment agreements and third party confidentiality agreements to safeguard our intellectual property rights. Nevertheless, these measures provide only limited protection and the actions we take to protect our intellectual property rights may not be adequate. Third parties may infringe or misappropriate our proprietary technologies or our other intellectual property rights, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Policing the unauthorized use of proprietary technology can be difficult and expensive. Also, litigation may be necessary to protect our trade secrets or determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. We cannot assure you that the outcome of such potential litigation will be in our favor. Such litigation may be costly and may divert management attention as well as our other resources away from our business. In addition, we have no insurance coverage against litigation costs and would have to bear all costs arising from such litigation to the extent we are unable to recover them from other parties. An adverse determination in any such litigation could result in the loss of our intellectual property rights and may harm our business, prospects and reputation.
      We have exported, and expect to continue to export, a substantial portion of our PV products outside China. Because we do not have, and have not applied for, any patents for our proprietary technologies outside of China, it is possible that others may independently develop substantially equivalent technologies or otherwise gain access to our proprietary technologies and obtain patents for such intellectual properties in other jurisdictions, including the countries to which we export our PV modules. If any third parties are successful in obtaining patents for technologies that are substantially equivalent to or the same as our proprietary technologies in any of our markets before we are and enforce their intellectual property rights against us, our ability to sell products containing the allegedly infringing intellectual property in those markets will be materially and adversely affected. If we are required to stop selling such allegedly infringing products, seek license and pay royalties for the relevant intellectual properties or redesign such products with non-infringing technologies, our business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.
          We may be exposed to infringement or misappropriation claims by third parties, which, if determined adversely to us, could cause us to pay significant damage awards.
      Our success depends, in large part, on our ability to use and develop technology and know-how without infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties. The validity and scope of claims relating to PV technology patents involve complex scientific, legal and factual questions and analysis and, therefore, may be highly uncertain. The steps we take in our product development to ensure that we are not infringing the existing intellectual property rights of others, such as review of related patents and patent applications prior to our product developments, may not be adequate. While we are not currently aware of any action pending or threatened against us, we may be subject to litigation involving claims of patent infringement or violation of intellectual property rights of third parties. The defense and prosecution of intellectual property suits and related legal and administrative proceedings can be both costly and time-consuming and may significantly divert the efforts and resources of our technical and management personnel. An adverse determination in any such litigation or proceedings to which we may become a party could subject us to significant liability to third parties, require us to seek licenses from third parties, to pay ongoing royalties, or to redesign our PV modules or subject us to injunctions prohibiting the manufacture and sale of our PV modules or the use of our technologies. Protracted litigation could also cause our customers or potential customers to defer or limit their purchase or use of our PV modules until the resolution of such litigation.

          Our business depends substantially on the continuing efforts of our executive officers and key technical personnel, and our ability to maintain a skilled labor force. Our business may be materially and adversely affected if we lose their services.
      Our future success depends substantially on the continued services of our executive officers, especially Liansheng Miao, our chief executive officer, Xiangdong Wang, our vice president, Zhiheng Zhao, our vice president, Zongwei Li, our chief financial officer, Seok Jin Lee, our chief operating officer and Guoxiao Yao, our chief technology officer. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our executive officers. If one or more of our executive officers are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to replace them readily, if at all. In addition, if any of our executive officers join a competitor or forms a competing company, we may lose some of our customers. Each of our executive officers has entered into an employment agreement with us, which contains confidentiality and non-competition provisions. However, if any disputes were to arise between one of our executive officers and us, we cannot assure you of the extent to which such officer’s employment agreement could be enforced in China.
      Furthermore, recruiting and retaining capable personnel, particularly experienced engineers and technicians familiar with our PV products manufacturing processes, is vital to maintaining the quality of our PV products and to continuously improving our production methods. There is substantial competition for qualified technical personnel, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to attract or retain qualified technical personnel. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified employees, key technical personnel and our executive officers, our business may be materially and adversely affected.
      If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud.
      We will be subject to reporting obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws. The Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, adopted rules requiring every public company to include a management report on such company’s internal control over financial reporting in its annual report, which contains management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. In addition, an independent registered public accounting firm must attest to and report on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. These requirements will first apply to our annual report on Form  20-F for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008. Our management may conclude that our internal control over our financial reporting is not effective. Moreover, even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, our independent registered public accounting firm may be unable to attest to our management’s assessment or may issue an adverse report if it is not satisfied that our internal controls over financial reporting are operating effectively. Our reporting obligations as a public company will place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future.
      Prior to this offering, we have been a private company with limited accounting personnel and other resources with which to address our internal controls and procedures. In connection with the audits of our consolidated financial statements for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, our independent auditors identified a number of significant control deficiencies in our internal control procedures which, in the judgment of our independent auditors, adversely affect our ability to initiate, authorize, record, process and report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of our consolidated financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. Specifically, the significant control deficiencies identified by our independent auditors consist of: (i) the lack of clear procedures, timetables, segregation of duty and review in the financial reporting process, (ii) failure to regularly reconcile the balances of accounts receivable and customer prepayments as recorded in our books and records with our customers, (iii) the lack of sub-ledgers to classify sales transactions by customer, (iv) the lack of process and related controls procedures relating to the recognition of accounts payable and reduction of advance payments, (v) failure to properly record all related party transactions and periodically update the list of such transactions and (vi) failure to properly record the

transfer of construction-in-progress to fixed assets on our financial statements. None of the significant deficiencies discovered by our auditors were, individually or in combination with one another, material weaknesses as described in Audit Standard No. 2, An Audit of Internal Control over Financial Reporting Performed in conjunction with an Audit of Financial Statements, of the Public Company Accounting Standards Board, and they were not related to any fraudulent acts. In the past, we also had certain material weaknesses, which have since been remedied other than the remaining significant deficiencies discussed above.
      In order to remedy the remaining significant deficiencies, we are undertaking several measures to further improve our internal control over financial reporting. We appointed a new chief financial officer and a new financial controller in the fourth quarter of 2006, both of whom have experience with and knowledge of U.S. GAAP. In October 2006, we hired Protiviti, an outside consulting firm, to review our internal control processes, policies and procedures in order to assist us in identifying weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We plan to provide further training to our financial and accounting staff to enhance their knowledge of U.S. GAAP. We are also adopting and implementing additional policies and procedures, including an enterprise resource planning system, to strengthen our internal controls over financial reporting. We plan to remedy these significant deficiencies in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. If we fail to timely achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal control, we may not be able to conclude that we have effective internal control over financial reporting at a reasonable assurance level. Moreover, effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and is important to help prevent fraud. As a result, our failure to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which in turn could harm our business and negatively impact the trading price of our ADSs. Furthermore, we anticipate that we will incur considerable costs and use significant management time and other resources in an effort to comply with Section 404 and other requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
          Failure to manage our growth, or otherwise develop appropriate internal organizational structures, internal control environment and risk monitoring and management systems in line with our fast growth could result in a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      Our business and operations have been expanding rapidly. Significant management resources must be expended to develop and implement appropriate structures for internal organization and information flow, an effective internal control environment and risk monitoring and management systems in line with our fast growth as well as to hire and integrate qualified employees into our organization. It is challenging for us to hire, integrate and retain qualified employees in key areas of operations, such as engineers and technicians who are familiar with the PV industry. The disclosure and other ongoing obligations associated with becoming a public company will also increase the challenges to our finance and accounting team. It is possible that our existing risk monitoring and management system, which recently underwent further development as a result of our fast growth and in anticipation of this offering, could prove to be inadequate. If we fail to appropriately develop and implement structures for internal organization and information flow, an effective internal control environment and a risk monitoring and management system, we may not be able to identify unfavorable business trends, administrative oversights or other risks that could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
          Compliance with environmental regulations can be expensive, and noncompliance with these regulations may result in adverse publicity, potentially significant monetary damages and fines and supervision of our business operations.
      Any failure by us to control the use of, or to restrict adequately the discharge of, hazardous substances could subject us to potentially significant monetary damages and fines or suspensions in our business operations. Our manufacturing processes generate noise, waste water, gaseous and other industrial wastes and are required to comply with national and local regulations regarding environmental protection. We believe we

27


Table of Contents

are currently in compliance with present environmental protection requirements and has all necessary environmental permits to conduct our business as it is presently conducted. However, if more stringent regulations are adopted in the future, the costs of compliance with these new regulations could be substantial. If we fail to comply with any future environmental regulations, we may be required to pay substantial fines, suspend production or cease operations. See “PRC Government Regulations — Environmental Regulations.”
          Our articles of association contain anti-takeover provisions that could have a material adverse effect on the rights of holders of our ordinary shares and ADSs.
      Our articles of association contain provisions that limit the ability of others to acquire control of our company or cause us to engage in change-of-control transactions. These provisions could have the effect of depriving our shareholders of an opportunity to sell their shares at a premium over prevailing market prices by discouraging third parties from seeking to obtain control of our company in a tender offer or similar transaction. For example, our board of directors has the authority, without further action by our shareholders, to issue preferred shares in one or more series and to fix their designations, powers, preferences, privileges, and relative participating, optional or special rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, any or all of which may be greater than the rights associated with our ordinary shares, in the form of ADS or otherwise. Preferred shares could be issued quickly with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control of our company or make removal of management more difficult. If our board of directors decides to issue preferred shares, the price of our ADSs may fall and the voting and other rights of the holders of our ordinary shares and ADSs may be materially and adversely affected.
          The quorum for the general meeting of our shareholders is one-third of our issued voting shares. Accordingly, shareholder resolutions may be passed without the presence of the majority of our shareholders in person or by proxy.
      The quorum required for the general meeting of our shareholders is two shareholders entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy or, if the shareholder is a corporation, by its duly authorized representative representing not less than one-third in nominal value of our total issued voting shares. Therefore, subject to obtaining the requisite approval from a majority of the shareholders so present, a shareholder resolution may be passed at our shareholder meetings without the presence of the majority of our shareholders present in person or by proxy. Such rights by the holders of the minority of our shares may discourage investors from making an investment in us, which may have a material adverse effect on the price of our ADSs.
          If a poll is not demanded at our shareholder meetings, voting will be by show of hands and shares will not be proportionately represented.
      Voting at any of our shareholder meetings is by show of hands unless a poll is demanded. A poll may be demanded by the chairperson of our board of directors or by any shareholder present in person or by proxy holding at least 10% of the total voting rights of all shareholders having the right to vote at the meeting. If a poll is demanded, each shareholder present in person or by proxy will have one vote for each ordinary share registered in his name. If a poll is not demanded, voting will be by show of hands and each shareholder present in person or by proxy will have one vote regardless of the number of shares registered in his name. In the absence of a poll, shares will therefore not be proportionately represented.
Risks Related to Doing Business in China
          Adverse changes in political and economic policies of the PRC government could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China, which could reduce the demand for our products and materially and adversely affect our competitive position.
      Our business is based in China and some of our sales are made in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and

28


Table of Contents

legal developments in China. The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including:
  •  the level of government involvement;
 
  •  the level of development;
 
  •  the growth rate;
 
  •  the control of foreign exchange; and
 
  •  the allocation of resources.
      While the Chinese economy has grown significantly in the past 20 years, the growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures benefit the overall Chinese economy, but may have a negative effect on us. For example, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations that are applicable to us.
      The Chinese economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy. Although in recent years the PRC government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of sound corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of the productive assets in China is still owned by the PRC government. The continued control of these assets and other aspects of the national economy by the PRC government could materially and adversely affect our business. The PRC government also exercises significant control over Chinese economic growth through allocating resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Efforts by the PRC government to slow the pace of growth of the Chinese economy could result in decreased capital expenditure by solar energy users, which in turn could reduce demand for our products.
      Any adverse change in the economic conditions or government policies in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth and the level of renewable energy investments and expenditures in China, which in turn could lead to a reduction in demand for our products and consequently have a material adverse effect on our businesses.
          Uncertainties with respect to the Chinese legal system could have a material adverse effect on us.
      We are incorporated in Cayman Islands and are subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China and, in particular, laws applicable to Sino-foreign equity joint venture companies. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, PRC legislation and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.
          Our failure to obtain the prior approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission of the listing and trading of our ADSs on the NYSE could significantly delay this offering or could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, reputation and trading price of our ADSs, and may also create uncertainties for this offering.
      On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the CSRC, promulgated a regulation that became effective on September 8, 2006. This regulation, has, among others, some provisions that purport to require that an offshore special purpose vehicle, or SPV, formed for listing purposes and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals shall obtain

29


Table of Contents

the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such SPV’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, the CSRC published on its official website a notice specifying documents and materials required to be submitted to it by SPVs seeking CSRC approval of their overseas listings. The application of this new PRC regulation and the notice remains unclear and there currently is no consensus among the leading PRC law firms regarding the scope and applicability of the CSRC approval requirement.
      Our PRC counsel, Fangda Partners, has advised us the following, based on their understanding of the current PRC laws, regulations, rules and the procedures announced on September 21, 2006:
  •  the CSRC has jurisdiction over our offering;
 
  •  given that we completed the transfer of our controlling equity interest in Tianwei Yingli before September 8, 2006, the date on which the new regulation became effective, it is not necessary for us to submit an application to the CSRC to obtain its approval of the listing and subsequent trading of our ADSs on the NYSE; and
 
  •  if an application for the CSRC approval is required, we have a justifiable basis to request a waiver from the CSRC, if and when such procedures are established to obtain such a waiver.
      A copy of Fangda Partners’ legal opinion regarding this new PRC regulation is being filed as an exhibit to our registration statement on Form  F-1, which is available at the website of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, at www.sec.gov.
      If the CSRC requires that we obtain its approval prior to the completion of this offering, this offering will be delayed until such approval is obtained, which may take several months. In addition, we may face regulatory or other sanctions from the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in the PRC, limit our operating privileges in the PRC, delay or restrict the repatriation of the proceeds from this offering into the PRC or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of our ADSs. The CSRC or other PRC regulatory authorities may also take actions requiring or encouraging us to halt this offering before settlement and delivery of the ADSs being offered in this offering. Consequently, if you engage in market trading or other activities in anticipation of and prior to settlement and delivery the ADSs being offered in this offering, you would be doing so at the risk that settlement and delivery may not occur.
      If the CSRC requires that we obtain its approval subsequent to the offering, we may not be in a position to obtain such approval or a waiver from such requirement. Any uncertainties or negative publicity regarding the CSRC approval requirements could have a material adverse effect on the price of our ADSs.
          Recent PRC regulations relating to overseas investment by PRC residents may restrict our overseas and cross-border investment activities and adversely affect the implementation of our strategy as well as our business and prospects.
      In 2005, the SAFE issued a number of rules regarding offshore investments by PRC residents. The rule currently in effect, the Notice on Issues Relating to the Administration of Foreign Exchange in Fund-Raising and Return Investment Activities of Domestic Residents Conducted Via Offshore Special Purpose Companies, known as SAFE Notice 75, was issued in October 2005. It requires PRC residents to register with and/or receive approvals from the SAFE in connection with certain offshore investment activities. Since we are a Cayman Islands company that is controlled by Yingli Power Holding Company Ltd., whose controlling shareholder is Mr. Liansheng Miao, our chairperson and chief executive officer and a PRC resident, Mr. Miao is subject to the registration requirements imposed by SAFE Notice 75.
      Mr. Miao made the requisite SAFE registration with respect to his investment in Yingli Power Holding Company Ltd. and us in August 2006. Within 30 days of this offering, Mr. Miao will be required to submit an application for additional amendment to his SAFE registration in connection with this offering and he has advised us that he intends to submit this application. We have requested our other beneficial owners who are PRC residents to make the necessary applications and filings as required under the SAFE Notice 75 and its

30


Table of Contents

implementing rules. However, we cannot assure you that all of our beneficial owners who are PRC residents will comply with our request to apply for or obtain any registrations or approvals required under these or other regulations or legislation.
      If Mr. Miao or any of our other beneficial owners who are PRC residents fails to comply with the registration procedures set forth in SAFE Notice 75, Mr. Miao or such beneficial owner who is a PRC resident could be subject to fines and legal penalties and Tianwei Yingli could face restrictions on its foreign currency exchange activities, including the payment of dividends and other distributions to its equity interest holders and Tianwei Yingli’s ability to receive capital from us. Any of these events could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, acquisition opportunities, financing alternatives and our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders.
      See “PRC Government Regulations — Regulation of Foreign Exchange in Certain Onshore and Offshore Transactions.”
          A newly enacted PRC tax law could increase the enterprise income tax rate applicable to our principal subsidiary in China, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
      Tianwei Yingli, which is registered and operates in a “national high-tech zone” in Baoding, China, qualifies as a “high and new technology enterprise” and as a result, has been entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15.0% through 2007. In accordance with Income Tax Law of China for Enterprises with Foreign Investment and Foreign Enterprises, or the FIE Income Tax Law, and the related implementing rules, as a foreign invested enterprise primarily engaged in manufacturing, Tianwei Yingli is entitled to a two-year exemption from the 15.0% enterprise income tax for its first two profitable years following its conversion into a Sino-foreign equity joint venture company, which are currently expected to be 2007 and 2008 for purposes of relevant PRC tax regulations. Tianwei Yingli will thereafter be entitled to a preferential enterprise income tax rate of 7.5% for the succeeding three years, or until 2011. Yingli Green Energy would also be exempted from the withholding tax on dividends it receives from Tianwei Yingli.
      On March 16, 2007, the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law was enacted, and will become effective on January 1, 2008 when the FIE Income Tax Law and the Enterprise Income Tax Provisional Regulations of the PRC are scheduled to expire. The PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law adopts a uniform tax rate of 25% for all enterprises (including foreign-invested enterprises) and revokes the current tax exemption, reduction and preferential treatments which are applicable only to foreign-invested enterprises. However, any enterprises established before the promulgation of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law that are entitled to preferential tax treatments for a fixed period will continue to be entitled to such preferential tax treatments until the expiration of such period. If the fixed period has not commenced because of tax losses, it shall be deemed to commence in 2008.
      Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State” would be entitled to a preferential tax rate of 15%, but the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law does not define “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State.” Unlike the FIE Income Tax Law, the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law provides that an income tax rate of 20% will normally be applicable to dividends payable to foreign investors and does not specifically exempt withholding tax on dividend payable to foreign investors. Although the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law provides for the possibility of withholding tax exemption or reduction for China source income, the details have not been published.
      Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, enterprises established under the laws of foreign countries or regions whose “de facto management bodies” are located within the PRC territory are considered resident enterprises and will normally be subject to the enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on its global income, but the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law does not define the term “de facto management bodies.” Substantially all of our management is currently located in the PRC, and if they remain located in the PRC after the effective date of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, Yingli Green Energy may be considered a resident enterprise and therefore be subject to the enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on its global income.

31


Table of Contents

      Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, Tianwei Yingli will continue to be entitled to the two-year exemption and three-year half reduction preferential treatment with respect to enterprise income tax for the period from 2007 to 2011 or, if it fails to record profits in 2007, it will continue to be entitled to such exemption and preferential treatment for the period from 2008 to 2012. However, because the PRC State Council has not promulgated the detailed rules for the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, we cannot assure you that Tianwei Yingli will be able to qualify as a “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State” and thus be entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15%, or that Yingli Green Energy will not be considered a “resident enterprise” under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, and we also cannot assure you that the withholding tax on our dividends from Tianwei Yingli will be exempted or reduced. If Tianwei Yingli fails to qualify as a “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State” and therefore is not entitled to a preferential tax rate of 15%, or Yingli Green Energy is considered a “resident enterprise” under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and is therefore subject to the PRC enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on its global income, or the withholding tax on our dividends from Tianwei Yingli are not exempted or reduced, our results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.
          We rely principally on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our principal operating subsidiary, Tianwei Yingli, and limitations on Tianwei Yingli’s ability to pay dividends to us could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
      We are a holding company, and we rely principally on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our principal operating subsidiary, Tianwei Yingli, for our cash and financing requirements, including the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to our shareholders, service any debt we may incur and pay our operating expenses. If Tianwei Yingli incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us.
      As an entity established in China, Tianwei Yingli is subject to certain limitations with respect to dividend payments. PRC regulations currently permit payment of dividends only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with accounting standards and regulations in China. Following its conversion into a Sino-foreign equity joint venture, Tianwei Yingli is also required to set aside each year a percentage, as decided by its board of directors, of its after-tax profits based on PRC accounting standards to its reserve fund, enterprise development fund and employee bonus and welfare fund. As of December 31, 2006, such restricted reserves of Tianwei Yingli amounted to RMB 14.4 million (US$1.8 million) and our accumulated profits that were unrestricted and were available for distribution amounted to RMB 283.6 million (US$36.3 million). Tianwei Yingli’s restricted reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. In addition, if Tianwei Yingli incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. Limitations on the ability of Tianwei Yingli to pay dividends to us could adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our businesses, pay dividends, or otherwise fund and conduct our business. Accordingly, if for any of the above or other reasons, we do not receive dividends from Tianwei Yingli, our liquidity, financial condition and ability to make dividend distributions to our shareholders will be materially and adversely affected.
          Fluctuation in the value of the Renminbi may have a material adverse effect on your investment.
      The change in the value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar, Euro and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. On July 21, 2005, in a reversal of a long-standing policy, the PRC government announced that Renminbi would be permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of specified foreign currencies. Since this announcement, the Renminbi has appreciated against the U.S. dollar by approximately 5.7% as of December 31, 2006. While international reactions to the Renminbi revaluation have generally been positive, there remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt an even more flexible foreign currency policy, which could result in further and more significant appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. In addition, as we rely entirely on dividends paid to us by Tianwei Yingli, any significant foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations of the Renminbi may have a material adverse effect on our reported revenues and financial

32


Table of Contents

condition as well as the value of, and any dividends payable on, our ADSs in foreign currency. In addition, to the extent that Tianwei Yingli needs to convert U.S. dollars it receives from this offering in the form of capital contribution or shareholder loan from us into Renminbi for its operations, appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the Renminbi amount it receives from the conversion. Conversely, if Tianwei Yingli decides to convert Renminbi into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making dividend payments on our ordinary shares or ADSs or for other business purposes, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Renminbi would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount it distributes to us.
          Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive dividends from Tianwei Yingli and Tianwei Yingli’s ability to obtain overseas financing.
      Tianwei Yingli may convert a portion of Renminbi held by it into foreign currencies to meet its foreign currency obligations, including, among others, payments of dividends declared, if any, in respect of our ordinary shares. Under China’s existing foreign exchange regulations, Tianwei Yingli is able to pay dividends in foreign currencies without prior approval from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or the SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, we cannot assure you that the PRC government will not take measures in the future to restrict access to foreign currencies for current account transactions, including payment of dividends.
      Foreign exchange transactions by Tianwei Yingli continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange controls and require the approval of PRC governmental authorities, including the SAFE. In particular, if Tianwei Yingli borrows foreign currency-denominated loans from us or other foreign lenders, these loans must be registered with the local offices of the SAFE. These limitations could affect Tianwei Yingli’s ability to obtain additional equity or debt funding that are denominated in foreign currencies.
          PRC regulation of direct investment and loans by offshore holding companies to PRC entities may delay or limit us from using the proceeds of this offering to make additional capital contributions or loans to Tianwei Yingli.
      Any capital contributions or loans that we, as an offshore entity, make to Tianwei Yingli, including from the proceeds of this offering, are subject to PRC regulations. For example, any of our loans to Tianwei Yingli cannot exceed the difference between the total amount of investment Tianwei Yingli is approved to make under relevant PRC laws and the registered capital of Tianwei Yingli, and must be registered with the local branch of the SAFE as a procedural matter. In addition, our capital contributions to Tianwei Yingli must be approved by the PRC Ministry of Commerce or its local counterpart. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain these approvals on a timely basis, or at all. If we fail to obtain such approvals, our ability to make equity contributions or provide loans to Tianwei Yingli or to fund its operations may be negatively affected, which could adversely affect Tianwei Yingli’s liquidity and its ability to fund its working capital and expansion projects and meet its obligations and commitments.
      Our capital contributions and, in limited circumstances, loans, to Tianwei Yingli are also subject to approvals by Tianwei Baobian, the holder of the minority equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. See “Restructuring — Joint Venture Contract — Increase or Reduction of Tianwei Yingli’s Registered Capital.”
          We face risks related to health epidemics and other outbreaks.
      Our business could be adversely affected by the effects of avian flu, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, or SARS, or another epidemic or outbreak in China or elsewhere in the world. China reported a number of cases of SARS in April 2003. Since 2004, there have been reports on the occurrences of avian flu in various parts of China, including several confirmed human cases. Any prolonged recurrence of avian flu, SARS or other adverse public health developments in China or other key markets of us may have a material adverse effect on our business operations. These could affect our ability to travel or export our products outside of China or import raw materials, as well as temporary closure of our manufacturing facilities. Such closures or travel or shipment restrictions would severely disrupt our business and operations and adversely affect our

results of operations. We have not adopted any written preventive measures or contingency plans to combat any future outbreak of avian flu, SARS or any other epidemic.
Risks Related to Our ADSs and This Offering
          There has been no public market for our ordinary shares or ADSs prior to this offering, and you may not be able to resell our ADSs at or above the price you paid, or at all.
      Prior to this initial public offering, there has been no public market for our ordinary shares or ADSs. We have made an application to list our ADSs on the NYSE. Our ordinary shares will not be listed on any exchange or quoted for trading on any over-the -counter trading system. If an active trading market for our ADSs does not develop after this offering, the market price and liquidity of our ADSs will be materially and adversely affected.
      The initial public offering price for our ADSs will be determined by negotiations between us and the underwriters and may bear no relationship to the market price for our ADSs after this initial public offering. We cannot assure you that an active trading market for our ADSs will develop or that the market price of our ADSs will not decline below the initial public offering price.
          The market price for our ADSs may be volatile.
      The market price for our ADSs is likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following:
  •  announcements of technological or competitive developments;
 
  •  regulatory developments in our target markets affecting us, our customers or our competitors;
 
  •  announcements regarding patent litigation or the issuance of patents to us or our competitors;
 
  •  announcements of studies and reports relating to the conversion efficiencies of our products or those of our competitors;
 
  •  actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly results of operations;
 
  •  changes in financial projections or estimates about our financial or operational performance by securities research analysts;
 
  •  changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other PV technology companies;
 
  •  addition or departure of our executive officers and key research personnel;
 
  •  release or expiry of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on our outstanding ordinary shares or ADSs; and
 
  •  sales or perceived sales of additional ordinary shares or ADSs.
      In addition, the securities market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also have a material adverse effect on the market price of our ADSs.
          Because the initial public offering price is substantially higher than our net tangible book value per share, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution.
      If you purchase ADSs in this offering, you will pay more for your ADSs than the amount paid by our existing shareholders for their ordinary shares on a per ADS basis. As a result, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution of approximately US$                     per ADS (assuming no exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional ADSs), representing the difference between our net tangible book value per ADS as of December 31, 2006, after giving effect to this offering and the midpoint initial public offering price range of US$                     per ADS. In addition, you may experience further dilution to the extent that our ordinary shares are issued upon the exercise of share options.

Table of Contents

          Substantial future sales or perceived sales of our ADSs in the public market could cause the price of our ADSs to decline.
      Sales of our ADSs in the public market after this offering, or the perception that these sales could occur, could cause the market price of our ADSs to decline. Upon completion of this offering, we will have                      ordinary shares outstanding, including                      ordinary shares represented by                      ADSs. All ADSs sold in this offering will be freely transferable without restriction or additional registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. The remaining ordinary shares outstanding after this offering will be available for sale, upon the expiration of the 180-day lock-up period beginning from the date of this prospectus, subject to volume and other restrictions as applicable under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Any or all of these shares (other than those held by certain option holders) may be released prior to expiration of the lock-up period at the discretion of the joint lead underwriters. To the extent shares are released before the expiration of the lock-up period and these shares are sold into the market, the market price of our ADSs could decline.
          Holders of ADSs have fewer rights than shareholders and must act through the depositary to exercise those rights.
      Holders of ADSs do not have the same rights of our shareholders and may only exercise the voting rights with respect to the underlying ordinary shares in accordance with the provisions of the deposit agreement. As a holder of ADSs, you will not be treated as one of our shareholders and you will not have shareholder rights. Instead, the depositary will be treated as the holder of the shares underlying your ADSs. However, you may exercise some of the shareholders’ rights through the depositary, and you will have the right to withdraw the shares underlying your ADSs from the deposit facility as described in “Description of American Depositary Shares — Deposit and Withdrawal” and “Description of American Depositary Shares — Your Right to Receive the Shares Underlying Your ADRs.”
      Under our new articles of association, the minimum notice period required to convene a general meeting will be seven days. When a general meeting is convened, you may not receive sufficient notice of a shareholders’ meeting to permit you to withdraw your ordinary shares to allow you to cast your vote with respect to any specific matter. In addition, the depositary and its agents may not be able to send voting instructions to you or carry out your voting instructions in a timely manner. We plan to make all reasonable efforts to cause the depositary to extend voting rights to you in a timely manner, but we cannot assure you that you will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that you can instruct the depositary to vote your ADSs. Furthermore, the depositary and its agents will not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote, for the manner in which any vote is cast or for the effect of any such vote. As a result, you may not be able to exercise your right to vote and you may lack recourse if your ADSs are not voted as you requested. In addition, in your capacity as an ADS holder, you will not be able to call a shareholder meeting.
          The depositary for our ADSs will give us a discretionary proxy to vote our ordinary shares underlying your ADSs if you do not vote at shareholders’ meetings, except in limited circumstances, which could adversely affect your interests.
      Under the deposit agreement for the ADSs, the depositary will give us a discretionary proxy to vote our ordinary shares underlying your ADSs at shareholders’ meetings if you do not vote, unless:
  •  we have failed to provide the depositary with the notice of meeting and related voting materials at least 30 days prior to the date of such shareholders’ meeting;
 
  •  we have instructed the depositary that we do not wish a discretionary proxy to be given;
 
  •  we have informed the depositary that there is substantial opposition as to a matter to be voted on at the meeting;

35


Table of Contents

  •  a matter to be voted on at the meeting would have a material adverse effect on shareholders; or
 
  •  voting at the meeting is made on a show of hands.
      The effect of this discretionary proxy is that you cannot prevent our ordinary shares underlying your ADSs from being voted, absent the situations described above, and it may make it more difficult for shareholders to influence our management. Holders of our ordinary shares are not subject to this discretionary proxy.
          You may not receive distributions on our ordinary shares or any value for them if it is illegal or impractical to make them available to you.
      The depositary of our ADSs has agreed to pay you the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian for our ADSs receives on our ordinary shares or other deposited securities after deducting its fees and expenses. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of our ordinary shares your ADSs represent. However, the depositary is not responsible if it is unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to any holders of ADSs. For example, it would be unlawful to make a distribution to a holder of ADSs if it consists of securities that require registration under the Securities Act but that are not properly registered or distributed pursuant to an applicable exemption from registration. The depositary is not responsible for making a distribution available to any holders of ADSs if any government approval or registration required for such distribution cannot be obtained after reasonable efforts are made by the depositary. We have no obligation to take any other action to permit the distribution of our ADSs, ordinary shares, rights or anything else to holders of our ADSs. This means that you may not receive the distributions we make on our ordinary shares or any value for them if it is illegal or impractical for us to make them available to you. These restrictions may have a material and adverse effect on the value of your ADSs.
          You may be subject to limitations on transfers of your ADSs.
      Your ADSs are transferable on the books of the depositary. However, the depositary may close its transfer books at any time or from time to time when it deems expedient in connection with the performance of its duties. In addition, the depositary may refuse to deliver, transfer or register transfers of ADSs generally when our books or the books of the depositary are closed, or at any time if we or the depositary deem it advisable to do so because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body, or under any provision of the deposit agreement, or for any other reason.
          As a holder of our ADSs, your right to participate in any future rights offerings may be limited, which may cause dilution to your holdings and you may not receive cash dividends if it is impractical to make them available to you.
      We may from time to time distribute rights to our shareholders, including rights to acquire our securities. However, we cannot make rights available to you in the United States unless we register the rights and the securities to which the rights relate under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements is available. Also, under the deposit agreement, the depositary bank will not make rights available to you unless the distribution to ADS holders of both the rights and any related securities are either registered under the Securities Act, or exempted from registration under the Securities Act with respect to all holders of ADSs. We are under no obligation to file a registration statement with respect to any such rights or securities or to endeavor to cause such a registration statement to be declared effective. Moreover, we may not be able to establish an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Accordingly, as a holder of our ADSs, you may be unable to participate in our rights offerings and may experience dilution in your holdings.
      In addition, the depositary of our ADSs has agreed to pay to you the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on our ordinary shares or other deposited securities after deducting its fees and expenses. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of ordinary shares your ADSs represent. However, the depositary may, at its discretion, decide that it is inequitable or impractical to make a distribution available to any holders of ADSs. For example, the depositary may determine that it is

36


Table of Contents

not practicable to distribute certain property through the mail, or that the value of certain distributions may be less than the cost of mailing them. In these cases, the depositary may decide not to distribute such property and you will not receive such distribution.
          We are a Cayman Islands company and, because judicial precedent regarding the rights of shareholders is more limited under Cayman Islands law than that under U.S. law, you may have less protection for your shareholder rights than you would under U.S. law.
      Our corporate affairs are governed by our memorandum and articles of association, the Cayman Islands Companies Law and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as that from English common law, which has persuasive, but not binding, authority on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands have a less developed body of securities laws than the United States. In addition, some U.S. states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law than the Cayman Islands.
      As a result of all of the above, shareholders of a Cayman Islands company may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors or controlling shareholders than they would as shareholders of a company incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States. For example, contrary to the general practice in most corporations incorporated in the United States, Cayman Islands law does not require that shareholders approve sales of all or substantially all of a company’s assets. The limitations described above will also apply to the depositary who is treated as the holder of the shares underlying your ADSs.
          You may have difficulty enforcing judgments obtained against us.
      We are a Cayman Islands company and substantially all of our assets are located outside of the United States. Substantially all of our current operations are conducted in the PRC. In addition, most of our directors and officers are nationals and residents of countries other than the United States. A substantial portion of the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors, most of whom are not residents in the United States and the substantial majority of whose assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands or the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts against us or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state. In addition, it is uncertain whether such Cayman Islands or PRC courts would be competent to hear original actions brought in the Cayman Islands or the PRC against us or such persons predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state. See “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities.”
          We have not determined any specific use for a portion of the net proceeds to us from this offering to be used by Tianwei Yingli and we may cause Tianwei Yingli to use such portion of the net proceeds in ways with which you may not agree.
      We have not allocated a portion of the net proceeds to us from this offering to be used by Tianwei Yingli to any specific purpose. Rather, our management will have considerable discretion in the application of such portion of the net proceeds received by us. See “Use of Proceeds.” You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether such proceeds are being used appropriately. You must rely on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds we receive from this

offering. Such proceeds may be used for corporate purposes that do not improve our profitability or increase our share price and may also be placed in investments that do not produce income or that may lose value.
          We will incur increased costs as a result of being a public company.
      As a public company, we will incur a significantly higher level of legal, accounting and other expenses than we did as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and the NYSE, requires changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect these new rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these new rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
      This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that relate to our current expectations and views of future events. The forward-looking statements are contained principally in the sections entitled “Prospectus Summary,” “Risk Factors,” “Use of Proceeds,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business.” These statements relate to events that involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those listed under “Risk Factors,” all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
      In some cases, these forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “aim,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “potential,” “continue,” “is/are likely to” or other similar expressions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. These forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements relating to:
  •  our expectations regarding the worldwide demand for electricity and the market for solar energy;
 
  •  our beliefs regarding the effects of environmental regulation, lack of infrastructure reliability and long-term fossil fuel supply constraints;
 
  •  our beliefs regarding the inability of traditional fossil fuel-based generation technologies to meet the demand for electricity;
 
  •  our beliefs regarding the importance of environmentally friendly power generation;
 
  •  our expectations regarding governmental support for the deployment of solar energy;
 
  •  our beliefs regarding the acceleration of adoption of solar technologies;
 
  •  our expectations regarding advancements in our technologies and cost savings from such advancements;
 
  •  our beliefs regarding the competitiveness of our PV products;
 
  •  our beliefs regarding the advantages of our business model;
 
  •  our expectations regarding the scaling of our manufacturing capacity;
 
  •  our expectations regarding entering into or maintaining joint venture enterprises and other strategic investments;
 
  •  our expectations regarding increased revenue growth and our ability to achieve profitability resulting from increases in our production volumes;
 
  •  our expectations regarding our ability to secure raw materials in the future;
 
  •  our expectations regarding the price trends of PV modules and polysilicon;
 
  •  our beliefs regarding our ability to successfully implement our strategies;
 
  •  our beliefs regarding our abilities to secure sufficient funds to meet our cash needs for our operations and capacity expansion.
 
  •  our future business development, results of operations and financial condition; and
 
  •  competition from other manufacturers of PV products, other renewable energy systems and conventional energy suppliers.
      This prospectus also contains data related to the PV market worldwide and in China. These market data, including market data from Solarbuzz, a solar energy research and consulting firm, and PV Status Report by

Table of Contents

the European Commission, include projections that are based on a number of assumptions. The PV market may not grow at the rates projected by the market data, or at all. The failure of the PV market to grow at the projected rates may have a material adverse effect on our business and the market price of our ADSs. In addition, the rapidly changing nature of the PV market subjects any projections or estimates relating to the growth prospects or future condition of our market to significant uncertainties. If any one or more of the assumptions underlying the market data turns out to be incorrect, actual results may differ from the projections based on these assumptions. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
      The forward-looking statements made in this prospectus relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this prospectus. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should read this prospectus and the documents that we refer to in this prospectus and have filed as exhibits to the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

USE OF PROCEEDS
      We estimate that we will receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately US$                million, after deducting underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and assuming an initial public offering price of US$                per ADS, the midpoint of the estimated range of the initial public offering price. If the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional ADSs, we will receive approximately US$                million. A US$1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of US$                per ADS would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering by US$                million, after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us and assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional ADSs and no other change to the number of ADSs offered by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus.
      We intend to use the net proceeds we receive from this offering for the following purposes:
  •  US$38 million to redeem all of the outstanding mandatory redeemable bonds issued by us on November 13, 2006 to Yingli Power, our controlling shareholder, and
 
  •  approximately US$                     million to make an equity contribution to Tianwei Yingli, which would, subject to obtaining relevant PRC regulatory approvals and registrations, increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli from 70.11% (following our completion of relevant PRC registration procedures for the injection into Tianwei Yingli of the proceeds from the Series B and other financings) to approximately                      % immediately following such equity contribution, assuming (i)           total outstanding number of our ordinary shares immediately after this offering and (ii) an initial public offering price of US$          per ADS, the midpoint of the estimated range of the public offering price.
      We intend to procure Tianwei Yingli to use the proceeds from our equity contribution in the amount of US$                     million for the following purposes:
  •  approximately US$                     million to fund a majority of the planned expansion of Tianwei Yingli’s manufacturing capacity for the production of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules each to reach 400 megawatts by the end of 2008. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Capital Expenditures” for more details;
 
  •  approximately US$                     million to purchase, or prepay for, raw materials; and
 
  •  the remaining amount for other general corporate purposes, such as potential strategic acquisitions of, or investments in, businesses, products and technologies that we believe will complement our current operations and strategies, although we are not currently in discussion with any parties regarding any such transaction.

Table of Contents

      The following table sets forth a summary of the outstanding mandatory redeemable bonds issued by us on November 13, 2006, to Yingli Power, our controlling shareholder, all of which (including any accrued interest) we intend to repay using part of the proceeds we will receive from this offering:
                             
        Principal        
Date of issuance   Maturity date   amount   Interest rate   Use of proceeds (1)
                 
November 13, 2006
    November 16, 2008     US$ 38,000,000     Floating rate, based on the British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rate for deposits in U.S. dollars   • Up to US$79,000,000, to make additional equity contribution to Tianwei Yingli and increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli
                            • Up to US$4,500,000 for interest payments under the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds; and
                            • The remaining balance for general corporate purposes
 
Note:
(1)  Determined on an aggregated basis with the mandatory convertible bonds in the principal amount of US$47,000,000.
     We have not yet finalized all of our anticipated expenditures and therefore cannot provide definitive estimates of the exact amounts to be used for each of the purposes discussed above. The amounts and timing of any expenditure will vary depending on the amount of cash generated by our operations, competitive and technological developments and the rate of growth, if any, of our business. Accordingly, our management will have significant discretion in the allocation of the net proceeds we will receive for this offering. Depending on future events and other changes in the business climate, we may determine at a later time to use the net proceeds for different purposes.
      Pending the use of our net proceeds, we intend to place the net proceeds in short-term bank deposits.
      Since we are an offshore holding company, we will need to make capital contributions or loans to Tianwei Yingli such that the net proceeds of the offering can be used in the manner described above. Such capital contributions and loans are subject to a number of limitations and approval processes under PRC laws and regulations, and, in limited circumstances, consent of Tianwei Baobian, holder of the minority equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Tianwei Baobian has consented to the use of proceeds described above. We cannot assure you that we can obtain the approvals from the relevant governmental authorities, or complete the registration and filing procedures required to use our net proceeds as described above, in each case on a timely basis, or at all. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in China — PRC regulation of direct investment and loans by offshore holding companies to PRC entities may delay or limit us from using the proceeds of this offering to make additional capital contributions or loans to Tianwei Yingli.”
      We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of ADSs by the selling shareholders. Other than as set forth above, we will not pay to any of our affiliates any of the proceeds received by us from the issuance and sale of ADSs.

CAPITALIZATION
      The following table sets forth our preferred shares and capitalization as of December 31, 2006:
  •  on an actual basis;
 
  •  on a pro forma basis to give effect to (i) the automatic conversion of all of our outstanding preferred shares as of December 31, 2006 upon completion of this offering and (ii) the automatic conversion of all of our outstanding mandatory convertible bonds into our ordinary shares upon completion of this offering; and
 
  •  on a pro forma, as adjusted basis to give effect to (i) the events listed in the preceding paragraph, (ii) the automatic redemption of all of our outstanding mandatory redeemable bonds upon completion of this offering, (iii) the exercise of all 5,547,210 warrants (consisting of (A) a warrant issued to China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd. in December 2006 to purchase 2,068,252 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$4.835, which warrant was fully exercised in February 2007, (B) a warrant granted to an affiliate of the Series A preferred shareholder to purchase 678,811 ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$2.10 per share and (C) warrants granted to 11 Series B preferred shareholders to purchase 2,800,147 ordinary shares in the aggregate at an exercise price of US$0.01 per share), (iv) the automatic conversion of 930,714 Series B preferred shares issued in January 2007 that are convertible into 930,714 of our ordinary shares upon completion of this offering and (v) the issuance and sale of                ordinary shares in the form of ADSs by us in this offering, assuming an initial public offering price of US$                per ADS, the midpoint of the estimated range of the initial public offering price, after deducting underwriting discount and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us and assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional ADSs. We believe all the outstanding warrants (including the warrants issued to the Series B preferred shareholders which are subject to cancellation as discussed in “Related Party Transactions — Private Equity Investments and Other Financings — Series B Preferred Shares and Related Warrants”) are likely to be exercised upon or prior to the completion of this offering in view of the specified exercise periods in their respective governing instruments and the expected market price of our ordinary shares.
      The pro forma and pro forma, as adjusted information below is illustrative only and our capitalization following the completion of this offering is subject to adjustment based on the actual initial public offering price of our ADSs and other terms of this offering determined at pricing. You should read this table together with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus and the information under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

DILUTION
      If you invest in our ADSs, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the initial public offering price per ADS and our net tangible book value per ADS after this offering. Dilution results from the fact that the initial public offering price per ordinary share is substantially in excess of the book value per ordinary share attributable to the existing shareholders for our presently outstanding ordinary shares.
      Our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2006 was approximately RMB1,237.5 million (US$158.6 million) or RMB 12.40 (US$1.60) per ordinary share and RMB 12.40 (US$1.60) per ADS. Net tangible book value represents our total consolidated assets, minus the amount of our total consolidated intangibles, liabilities (adjusted for the automatic conversion of the mandatory convertible bonds payable to Yingli Power) and minority interest. Our net tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2006 is calculated as our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2006, without taking into account any other changes in such net tangible book value after December 31, 2006, divided by the number of ordinary shares outstanding at December 31, 2006, adjusted for (1) the automatic conversion of all of our outstanding preferred shares and mandatory convertible bonds into 37,014,512 ordinary shares upon the completion of this offering and (2) the exercise of all outstanding warrants to purchase our ordinary shares, which are exercisable upon or prior to the completion of this offering.
      Without taking into account any other changes in such net tangible book value after December 31, 2006 except for (1) the automatic conversion of all of our outstanding preferred shares and mandatory convertible bonds into            ordinary shares upon completion of this offering; (2) the exercise of all outstanding warrants to purchase our ordinary shares, which are exercisable upon or prior to completion of this offering; and (3) the issuance and sale of                 ordinary shares in the form of ADSs offered by us in this offering, at the assumed initial public offering price of US$                per ADS, the midpoint of the estimated range of the initial public offering price, and after deduction of underwriting discount and estimated aggregate offering expenses of this offering payable by us, our pro forma net tangible book value as of December 31, 2006 would have increased to US$                million or US$                per ordinary share and US$          per ADS. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of US$                per ordinary share to the existing shareholder and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of US$                per ordinary share and US$          per ADS to investors purchasing ADSs in this offering.
      The following table illustrates such per share dilution:

      A US$1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of US$                per ADS would increase (decrease) our pro forma net tangible book value after giving effect to the offering of by US$                per ordinary share and US$                per ADS and the dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per ordinary share and per ADS to new investors in the offering by US$                per ordinary share and US$                per ADS, assuming no change in the number of ADSs offered by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and without deducting underwriting discount and other offering expenses.
      The pro forma information discussed above is illustrative only. Our net tangible book value following the completion of this offering is subject to adjustment based on the actual initial public offering price of our ADSs and other terms of this offering determined at pricing.
      The following table summarizes, on a pro forma basis as of December 31, 2006, the differences between existing shareholders, including the holders of all of our outstanding preferred shares and mandatory convertible bonds, both of which are automatically convertible into ordinary shares upon the completion of this offering, and the holders of all outstanding warrants to purchase our ordinary shares, which are exercisable upon or prior to the completion of this offering, and the new investors with respect to the number

of ordinary shares in the form of ADSs purchased from us, the total consideration paid and the average price per ordinary share and per ADS. In the case of the ordinary shares purchased by the new investors, the total consideration paid and amounts per share paid are before deducting underwriting discount and estimated aggregate offering expenses, assuming an initial public offering price of US$                per ADS, the midpoint of the estimated range of the initial public offering price. The total number of ordinary shares does not include ordinary shares underlying the ADSs issuable upon the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional ADSs. The information in the following table is illustrative only and the total consideration paid and the average price per ordinary share is subject to adjustment based on the actual initial public offering price of our ADSs and other terms of this offering determined at pricing.

As of the date of this prospectus, we granted 610,929 options and 2,621,060 restricted shares and subject to the completion of this offering, will grant another 115,000 options under the 2006 stock incentive plan.
      A US$1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of US$                per ADS would increase (decrease) total consideration paid by new investors, total consideration paid by all shareholders and the average price per ADS paid by all shareholders by US$                million, US$                million and US$               , respectively, assuming no change in the number of ADSs sold by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and without deducting underwriting discount and other offering expenses.

DIVIDEND POLICY
      Since its incorporation, Yingli Green Energy has never declared or paid any dividends, nor does it have any present plan to pay any cash dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future. Yingli Green Energy currently intends to transfer most, if not all, of its available funds to Tianwei Yingli for the operation and expansion of Tianwei Yingli’s business.
      As a holding company, Yingli Green Energy relies on dividends paid to it by Tianwei Yingli, a Sino-foreign equity joint venture company established in the PRC, for its cash requirements, including the funds necessary to pay dividends to Yingli Green Energy’s shareholders, and to service any debt it may incur and pay its operating expenses. In China, the payment of dividends is subject to limitations. Under PRC laws and regulations and under the joint venture contract with Tianwei Baobian, the maximum amount of dividend payable to Tianwei Yingli’s equity interest holders is calculated based on its retained earnings as set forth in Tianwei Yingli’s statutory financial statements, which are prepared under accounting principles generally accepted in the PRC, and prior to the payment of dividends, Tianwei Yingli is required to pay income taxes according to PRC laws and make allocations of retained earnings to the reserve fund, enterprise development fund and employee bonus and welfare fund each at a percentage decided by the board each fiscal year.
      Any dividends paid by Tianwei Yingli are required to be distributed to Tianwei Baobian and Yingli Green Energy in proportion to their respective equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Tianwei Yingli may not distribute any profit to its equity interest holders until any losses incurred in previous fiscal years are fully recovered. As a result of these PRC laws and regulations, Tianwei Yingli is restricted in its ability to transfer its net profit to us in the form of dividends.
      Our board of directors has complete discretion on whether to pay dividends, subject to the approval of our shareholders. Even if our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency and amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. If we pay any dividends, we will pay our ADS holders to the same extent as holders of our ordinary shares, subject to the terms of the deposit agreement, including the fees and expenses payable thereunder. Cash dividends on our ordinary shares, if any, will be paid in U.S. dollars. See “Description of American Depositary Shares.”

EXCHANGE RATE INFORMATION
      Our business is primarily conducted in China and a portion of our revenues are denominated in Renminbi. The conversion of Renminbi into U.S. dollars in this prospectus is based on the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers of Renminbi as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from Renminbi to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to Renminbi in this prospectus were made at a rate of RMB 7.8041 to US$1.00, the noon buying rate in effect as of December 29, 2006. We make no representation that any Renminbi or U.S. dollar amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars or Renminbi, as the case may be, at any particular rate, the rates stated below, or at all. The PRC government imposes control over its foreign currency reserves in part through direct regulation of the conversion of Renminbi into foreign exchange and through restrictions on foreign trade. On May 10, 2007, the noon buying rate was RMB 7.6936 to US$1.00.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
      We are incorporated in the Cayman Islands to take advantage of certain benefits associated with being a Cayman Islands exempted company, such as:
  •  political and economic stability;
 
  •  an effective judicial system;
 
  •  a favorable tax system;
 
  •  the absence of exchange control or currency restrictions; and
 
  •  the availability of professional and support services.
      However, certain disadvantages accompany incorporation in the Cayman Islands. These disadvantages include:
  •  the Cayman Islands has a less developed body of securities laws as compared to the United States and provides significantly less protection to investors; and
 
  •  Cayman Islands companies do not have standing to sue before the federal courts of the United States.
      Our constituent documents do not contain provisions requiring that disputes, including those arising under the securities laws of the United States, between us, our officers, directors and shareholders, be arbitrated.
      Substantially all of our current operations are conducted in China, and substantially all of our assets are located in China. A majority of our directors and officers are nationals or residents of jurisdictions other than the United States and a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for a shareholder to effect service of process within the United States upon us or such persons, or to enforce against us or them judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.
      We have appointed Law Debenture Corporate Services Inc. as our agent to receive service of process with respect to any action brought against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York under the federal securities laws of the United States or of any state in the United States or any action brought against us in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in the County of New York under the securities laws of the State of New York.
      Conyers Dill & Pearman, our counsel as to Cayman Islands law, and Fangda Partners, our counsel as to PRC law, have advised us, respectively, that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands and the PRC, respectively, would:
  •  recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States; or
 
  •  entertain original actions brought in each respective jurisdiction against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.
      Conyers Dill & Pearman has further advised us that a final and conclusive judgment in the federal or state courts of the United States under which a sum of money is payable, other than a sum payable in respect of multiple damages, taxes, or other charges of a like nature or in respect of a fine or other penalty, may be subject to enforcement proceedings as debt in the courts of the Cayman Islands under the common law doctrine of obligation provided that (a) such federal or state courts of the United States had proper jurisdiction over the parties subject to such judgment; (b) such federal or state courts of the United States did

49


Table of Contents

not contravene the rules of natural justice of the Cayman Islands; (c) such judgment was not obtained by fraud; (d) the enforcement of the judgment would not be contrary to the public policy of the Cayman Islands; (e) no new admissible evidence relevant to the action is submitted prior to the rendering of the judgment by the courts of the Cayman Islands; and (f) there is due compliance with the correct procedures under the laws of the Cayman Islands.
      Fangda Partners has advised us further that the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedures Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments, which do not otherwise violate basic legal principles, state sovereignty, safety or social public interest of the PRC, in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between the PRC and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. As there currently exists no treaty or other form of reciprocity between the PRC and the United States governing the recognition of judgments, including those predicated upon the liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws, there is uncertainty whether and on what basis a PRC court would recognize and enforce judgments rendered by U.S. courts.

Our History
      Our predecessor and current principal operating subsidiary, Tianwei Yingli, was established as a PRC limited liability company in August 1998. The initial holders of equity interests in Tianwei Yingli included Baoding Yingli Group Co., Ltd., or Yingli Group, and Baoding Gaoxin District Development Co., Ltd., a PRC company engaged in project investment and development in the national high-tech zone in the Baoding area which is wholly owned by the Management Committee of Baoding Gaoxin District, a local government agency. Mr. Liansheng Miao is the founder of Yingli Group and currently holds 100% equity interest in Yingli Group. Through a series of equity transfers among holders of Tianwei Yingli’s equity interests and additional equity contributions into Tianwei Yingli from 1998 to 2005, Tianwei Baobian and Yingli Group became the only two holders of equity interests in Tianwei Yingli as of December 9, 2005 and since then held 51% and 49% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, respectively, until the restructuring described below.
      In 2002, Tianwei Yingli established Chengdu Yingli in Chengdu, Sichuan, China, together with unrelated parties, with Tianwei Yingli initially holding a 55% equity interest in Chengdu Yingli. Chengdu Yingli sells and installs PV systems in Sichuan Province. In May 2004, Tianwei Yingli acquired an additional 9% equity interest and increased its equity interest in Chengdu Yingli to 64%. In 2004, Tianwei Yingli acquired a 10% equity interest in Tibetan Yingli. Tibetan Yingli sells and installs PV systems in Tibet. In September 2005, Tianwei Yingli acquired an additional 40% of the equity interest in Tibetan Yingli and increased its equity interest in Tibetan Yingli to 50%.
Restructuring
      Yingli Green Energy was incorporated on August 7, 2006 in the Cayman Islands as part of a restructuring of the equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to facilitate investments by foreign financial investors in

52


Table of Contents

Tianwei Yingli and the listing of our shares on an overseas stock market to achieve such investors’ investment goal and exit and liquidity strategies. This restructuring involved the following transactions:
  •  On June 7, 2006, Yingli Power was established in the British Virgin Islands by its sole shareholder, Mr. Liansheng Miao;
 
  •  On August 7, 2006, in connection with the incorporation of Yingli Green Energy, Yingli Power subscribed for 50 million of our ordinary shares at par value of US$0.01 per share and became our sole shareholder. On September 25, 2006, Yingli Power subscribed for an additional 9.8 million of our ordinary shares for a consideration of US$100,000;
 
  •  On August 9, 2006, Yingli Group and Tianwei Baobian made additional equity contributions to Tianwei Yingli, as a result of which, (i) the registered capital of Tianwei Yingli was increased from RMB 75 million to RMB 100 million; (ii) Yingli Group increased its equity interest in Tianwei Yingli from 49% to 51%; and (iii) the equity interest of Tianwei Baobian in Tianwei Yingli was correspondingly decreased from 51% to 49%;
 
  •  On August 25, 2006, we entered into a Sino-foreign equity joint venture company contract with Tianwei Baobian under which we granted to Tianwei Baobian a right to subscribe for newly issued ordinary shares of us in exchange for all but not part of Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Tianwei Baobian may exercise this subscription right only after certain conditions (as described below) are satisfied following the completion of this offering; and
 
  •  On September 5, 2006, Yingli Group transferred all of its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us in a transaction between entities under common control for cash consideration of approximately RMB 134.6 million (US$17 million as translated at the applicable rate at the historical transaction date). As a result of such transfer, Tianwei Yingli became our subsidiary. For financial statements reporting purposes, Tianwei Yingli is deemed to be our predecessor.
Private Equity Investments and Other Financings Following the Restructuring
  •  On September 28, 2006, we issued to Inspiration Partners Limited 8,081,081 Series A preferred shares for an aggregate purchase price of approximately US$17.0 million. On the same date, we also issued to TB Management Ltd., an affiliate of Inspiration Partners Limited, a warrant to purchase 678,811 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$2.10 per share. All outstanding Series A preferred shares held by Inspiration Partners Limited are automatically convertible into our ordinary shares upon the completion of this offering at a conversion ratio of one-to-one, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. Any outstanding warrant held by TB Management is exercisable into our ordinary shares upon or prior to the completion of this offering at the exercise price of US$2.10 per ordinary share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. The proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Series A preferred shares were used to finance the transfer to us of the 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli held by Yingli Group.
 
  •  On November 13, 2006, we issued interest-bearing mandatory redeemable bonds and mandatory convertible bonds to Yingli Power in the aggregate principal amount of US$85 million and at an issue price equal to 98.75% of such aggregate principal amount. The mandatory redeemable bonds in the principal amount of US$38 million are required to be redeemed at their principal amount upon the completion of this offering. The mandatory convertible bonds with the principal amount of US$47 million are automatically convertible into our equity interest at an aggregate value equal to the value of a 3.73% effective equity interest in Tianwei Yingli at the time of the conversion. The net proceeds from these bonds are required to be used (i) up to US$62 million, to increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli from 53.98% to 62.13% (which event occurred on December 18, 2006), (ii) up to US$17 million, to further increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, (iii) US$4.5 million to be held in a restricted account to be used to service the first three interest payments falling due

  under these bonds and (iv) the remaining proceeds for general corporate purpose and working capital. Both of these bonds carry a floating interest rate tied to the British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Date plus 2.00% (up to and including August 16, 2007) or 4.00% (after August 16, 2007). Interest is payable quarterly. Under the indenture governing these bonds, we are subject to a number of covenants, such as the maintenance of certain financial ratios, restrictions on granting collateral, disposals of existing assets, the making of payments to shareholders and affiliates and the making of investments. We have also pledged 62.13% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli representing our existing equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, and our other tangible and intangible assets as collateral for our obligations under these bonds.

  In connection with the issuance of these bonds, on November 13, 2006, our controlling shareholder, Yingli Power, issued to Deutsche Bank AG, Singapore Branch, floating rate notes in the aggregate principal amount of US$85 million and at an issue price equal to 98.75% of such aggregate principal amount. The floating rate notes consist of US$55 million mandatory redeemable notes and US$30 million mandatory exchangeable notes exchangeable into equity interests in us at an aggregate value substantially equal to the value of a 3.73% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli at the time of the conversion, the terms of which (other than the allocation of the principal amounts between the redeemable and convertible or exchangeable portions) are substantially similar to the terms of the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds issued by us to Yingli Power. Yingli Power used the proceeds from the issuance of the floating rate notes to subscribe for the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds issued by us. Yingli Power pledged to Deutsche Bank AG, Singapore Branch all of its then existing equity interest in us and its other tangible and intangible asset as collateral for its obligations under these floating rate notes.
 
  The following chart depicts the schematics of the mandatory redeemable and convertible bonds issued by Yingli Green Energy to Yingli Power and the mandatory redeemable and exchangeable notes issued by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG.

  These offerings were structured as a two-step transaction for a number of legal considerations and commercial arrangements between the relevant parties. The following provides further background.
 
  In order to facilitate the offshore listing of the business of Tianwei Yingli, Mr. Miao incorporated Yingli Green Energy in August 2006. The subsequent step was to transfer the equity interest in Tianwei Yingli held by Yingli Group, which is controlled by Mr. Miao, to Yingli Green Energy. However, under relevant PRC regulations, any cross-border transfer of equity interest ownership has to

54


Table of Contents

  be paid in cash unless otherwise approved by several PRC governmental authorities, including the PRC Ministry of Commerce and SAFE. Obtaining such approval is a lengthy, cumbersome and unpredictable process. Yingli Group, a PRC entity, could not make a non-cash contribution to Yingli Green Energy, an offshore entity, of Yingli Group’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli without going through such cumbersome approval process. Therefore, in order to secure cash funding required for the transfer of Yingli Group’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, Yingli Green Energy engaged in a Series A preferred equity financing, the proceeds from which was US$17 million and was used for the foregoing purpose.
 
  However, while the Series A investor agreed to such use of proceeds as documented in the definitive agreements for the Series A preferred equity financing, the Series A investor reached an informal understanding with Mr. Miao that Yingli Green Energy would seek a third-party financing, the proceeds from which would be used to increase Yingli Green Energy’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli by way of capital contribution. Such understanding was one of the reasons for the issuance of the notes by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG. The key difference between the mandatory redeemable and convertible bonds issued by Yingli Green Energy to Yingli Power and the mandatory redeemable and exchangeable notes issued by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG is the respective amounts of the two tranches. Specifically, the bonds issued to Yingli Power consist of a redeemable tranche in the principal amount of US$38 million and a convertible tranche in the principal amount of US$47 million, whereas the notes issued to Deutsche Bank AG consist of a redeemable tranche in the principal amount of US$55 million and an exchangeable tranche in the principal amount of US$30 million, which resulted in a difference of US$17 million in principal amount between the US$47 million convertible tranche of the bonds issued to Yingli Power and the US$30 million exchangeable tranche of the notes issued to Deutsche Bank AG. However, notwithstanding the difference in the underlying principal amounts, the convertible tranche of the bonds issued to Yingli Power and the exchangeable tranche of the notes issued to Deutsche Bank AG are convertible or exchangeable into the same number of Yingli Green Energy’s ordinary shares, namely, an amount that would be equivalent to a 3.73% effective equity interest in Tianwei Yingli at the time of the conversion or exchange. Accordingly, the transaction was structured so that upon the mandatory redemption and conversion of the bonds issued by Yingli Green Energy to Yingli Power, and the mandatory redemption and exchange of the notes issued by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG, Yingli Power would contribute US$17 million to Yingli Green Energy using its own funds. Yingli Power was not paid any additional consideration for the above transaction, except for the indirect benefit from Yingli Green Energy’s increasing its equity ownership in Tianwei Yingli as a result of the Series A preferred equity financing. We have been advised by Fangda Partners, our PRC counsel, that the transaction structure discussed above does not violate applicable PRC laws and regulations.

  •  On October 10, 2006, we amended the joint venture contract with Tianwei Baobian to make an equity contribution of US$17 million to Tianwei Yingli. The equity contribution was consummated on November 20, 2006, which increased our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to 53.98% from 51%. This equity contribution was funded with advance payments in an aggregate amount of US$17 million from three of our Series B preferred shareholders described below.
 
  •  On November 13, 2006, we further amended the joint venture contract with Tianwei Baobian to make an additional equity contribution of US$62 million to Tianwei Yingli. The equity contribution was consummated on December 18, 2006 and was funded with proceeds from the issuance of the mandatory convertible bonds and the mandatory redeemable bonds. This equity contribution increased our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to 62.13% from 53.98%.
 
  •  During the period from December 20, 2006 through January 13, 2007, we issued to Baytree Investments (Mauritius) Pte Ltd., or Baytree Investments, an affiliate of Temasek Holdings Pte Ltd., and 13 other investors, a total of 24,405,377 Series B preferred shares for an aggregate purchase price of US$118 million, or at US$4.835 per share. In addition, during this period, we granted to such investors, other than the three investors who had made advance payments, warrants to purchase

55


Table of Contents

  2,112,057 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$0.01 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. All outstanding Series B preferred shares are automatically convertible into our ordinary shares upon the completion of this offering at a conversion ratio of one-to-one, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. These warrants are cancellable upon the conversion of the shareholder loan as described below. Of US$118 million in aggregate proceeds, US$17 million, which was received as advance payments, was used to increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to 53.98% from 51%, US$22.6 million (together with US$17 million from portions of the proceeds from the issuance and sale of the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds) will be injected into Tianwei Yingli in the form of a direct equity contribution and the remaining US$78.4 million was injected into Tianwei Yingli in the form of a shareholder loan from us to Tianwei Yingli which will be converted into equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. On or about March 27, 2007, we issued to the Series B preferred shareholders (other than the three investors who had made advance payments) additional warrants with terms similar to the previously issued Series B warrants to purchase an aggregate of 688,090 of our ordinary shares in exchange for the early termination of an escrow arrangement with certain restriction, which made the release of a portion of the proceeds, in an amount of US$19.6 million, that were received from the issuance and sale of the Series B preferred shares contingent upon our obtaining the relevant PRC regulatory approvals and completion of related procedural formalities in connection with the conversion of the shareholder loan into equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. This amount of US$19.6 million was injected into Tianwei Yingli upon removal of such restriction in the form of entrusted loan from us to satisfy Tianwei Yingli’s working capital requirement.
 
  •  On December 18, 2006, we further amended the joint venture contract with Tianwei Baobian for us to make an additional equity contribution of US$118 million to Tianwei Yingli, and we have obtained approvals from the National Development and Reform Commission and the PRC Ministry of Commerce, and are in the process of obtaining approval from, and making registrations with the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, Baoding Branch the Hebei Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce. As the approvals and registrations are largely procedural in nature, we do not anticipate having difficulties in obtaining or making them. Upon obtaining the relevant PRC regulatory approvals and making related filings and registrations for the additional equity contribution by us of the US$118 million, our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli would increase to 70.11% from 62.13%. All outstanding warrants issued in connection with the Series B preferred shares are exercisable into our ordinary shares after April 30, 2007 or such later date, as selected by Baytree Investments, but upon or prior to the earlier of the completion of this offering and the conversion of the shareholder loan into equity interest in Tainwei Yingli. Upon conversion of the shareholder loan, whether prior or subsequent to our initial public offering, any unexercised warrants will be automatically cancelled, and the holders of the ordinary shares into which any warrants have been exercised are obligated to return such shares to us for cancellation or pay us an amount to be mutually determined between us and such shareholder.
 
  •  In connection with a convertible loan to Tianwei Yingli from China Foreign Economic and Trade & Investment Co., Ltd., or FOTIC, a trust and investment company established in China, FOTIC acted as a nominee for certain third-party individuals. This convertible loan was made on May 17, 2006. Under a repayment and termination agreement dated December 29, 2006 among Tianwei Yingli, FOTIC, China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd., or China Sunshine, a British Virgin Islands investment holding company, and us, Tianwei Yingli repaid the convertible loan in the principal amount of RMB 85,635,000 plus accrued interest of RMB 4,281,750 on December 29, 2006. As a condition of repayment, under the repayment and termination agreement, we issued on December 29, 2006 to China Sunshine a warrant to purchase 2,068,252 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$4.835 per share. On February 2, 2007, China Sunshine fully exercised this warrant at an exercise price per share of US$4.835 and purchased 2,068,252 of our ordinary shares.

  The issuance of the warrant was a condition of repayment of the referenced convertible loan due to a number of legal considerations and business arrangements between relevant parties. The parties to the

56


Table of Contents

  convertible loan understood that at the time the convertible loan was made, the lenders’ intention was to exercise the conversion right under the convertible loan for an equity interest in an offshore listing vehicle for Tianwei Yingli to be listed on an overseas stock exchange. However, after the convertible loan was made, the parties to the loan agreement became aware of certain PRC legal and regulatory considerations which cast some uncertainties into the enforceability and legality under PRC laws of the conversion of the loan, which is RMB-denominated. Specifically, the original transaction contemplated the exercise by certain third party individuals or a PRC entity, namely FOTIC, as the nominee for the third party individuals, of a conversion right under a loan agreement with another PRC entity, namely Tianwei Yingli, for an equity interest in an offshore entity that is the controlling shareholder, namely Yingli Green Energy, of the second PRC entity, namely Tianwei Yingli, which was a relatively novel arrangement in the PRC for which the parties could not find sufficient precedents or clear legal authority to establish the legality of such arrangement. Accordingly, in order to reduce the potential legal and/or regulatory uncertainties, Yingli Green Energy agreed to repay the debt and also agreed to the lenders’ designation of China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd., an entity incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and unrelated to the lenders, as the holder of the conversion right, which in the final arrangement took the form of a warrant.
 
  The inclusion of the warrant as a condition to repayment of the loan also served the business interests of both Yingli Green Energy and the lenders. The arrangements that the parties agreed upon were that (i) Yingli Green Energy would repay the loan in full, including the accrued interest, (ii) Yingli Green Energy would issue a warrant to the lenders’ designated entity, China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd., and such warrant would be exercisable into Yingli Green Energy’s equity interest that would be substantially equal to the principal amount of the loan, and (iii) to the extent China Sunshine exercises the warrant, the majority of the proceeds from the repayment would effectively be returned to Yingli Green Energy in the form of the exercise price paid by China Sunshine (which was US$4.835 per share, or the share price paid by the investors in Yingli Green Energy’s Series B preferred shares), and (iv) China Sunshine would have a reasonably short period of time (which was fixed at 45 days under the repayment agreement) to exercise the warrant. The repayment agreement dated December 29, 2006 reflected the foregoing arrangements. The above arrangement helped eliminate a potential liquidity risk associated with an immediate loan repayment for Yingli Green Energy while allowing the lenders to designate its conversion right to China Sunshine.

Notes:
(1)  Represents the consideration paid by Inspiration Partners Limited under the share purchase agreement for issuance and sale of the Series A preferred shares. US$0.31 per share of this consideration was allocated on a relative fair value basis to the warrant issued to TB Management Ltd., an affiliate of Inspiration Partners Limited, based on a valuation performed by us with the assistance of American Appraisal China Limited, or American Appraisal, an independent valuation firm.
 
(2)  Represents the consideration paid by TB Management Ltd. under the instrument governing this warrant. US$0.31 per share of the consideration paid by Inspiration Partners under the share purchase agreement for issuance and sale of the Series A preferred shares was allocated on a relative fair value basis to this warrant. The exercise price of this warrant is US$2.10 per share, which is the per-share consideration paid by Inspiration Partners Limited for the Series A preferred shares.
 
(3)  The consideration paid per share is estimated to be US$8.55, assuming our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli is 70.11% and the total number of ordinary shares outstanding, on fully diluted basis, is 97,833,668 immediately prior to such conversion. Under the indenture under which the mandatory convertible bonds were issued, the number of our ordinary shares into which the mandatory convertible bonds are convertible is determined as a percentage of our ordinary shares which represents our effective ownership of a 3.73% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli at the time of the conversion. As Deutsche Bank AG paid US$30 million for the principal amount of the mandatory exchangeable notes issued by Yingli Power and Yingli Power paid US$47 million for the principal amount of the mandatory convertible bonds issued by us while the number of our ordinary shares to be issued upon the conversion is the same for the mandatory exchangeable notes and the mandatory convertible bonds, the consideration per share paid by Deutsche Bank AG to Yingli Power for the mandatory exchangeable notes is significantly less than the consideration per share paid by Yingli Power to us for the mandatory convertible bonds. The consideration paid by Deutsche Bank AG to Yingli Power for the principal amount of

the mandatory exchangeable notes is subject to certain adjustments relating to the offering price of our ordinary shares in the event of our initial public offering.
 
(4)  The warrant was issued by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG in connection with the issuance of the floating rate notes issued by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG. The floating rate notes consist of mandatory redeemable notes and mandatory exchangeable notes, whose respective terms substantially mirror the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds issued by us to Yingli Power on the same date as the floating rate notes. This warrant is exercisable into our existing shares held by Yingli Power. The warrant may be exercised upon the listing of our ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange (or other internationally recognized stock exchange) which occurs after the mandatory redeemable notes and the mandatory convertible notes have been repaid in full (the scheduled final maturity dates of both notes being November 16, 2008).
 
(5)  Represents the consideration paid by Deutsche Bank AG under the instrument governing this warrant. The exercise price of this warrant is the lower of (i) 25 times Tianwei Yingli’s net income for the year ended December 31, 2006, multiplied by our ownership percentage in Tianwei Yingli and divided by the total number of our outstanding ordinary shares on a fully diluted basis and (ii) 67.5% of the offering price of our ordinary shares in a public offering of our ordinary shares and listing of such shares on the New York Stock Exchange or any other internationally recognized stock exchange.
 
(6)  Represents the consideration paid by the Series B preferred shareholders under the share purchase agreement for issuance and sale of the Series B preferred shares.

(7)  Represents the consideration paid by the Series B preferred shareholders under the respective instruments governing these warrants.

The exercise price of these warrants is US$0.01 per share, which is the par value per share of our ordinary and preferred shares.
 
(8)  The warrants were issued in consideration of the early termination of an escrow arrangement which removed the restriction on the proceeds of US$19.6 million that were received from the issuance and sale of the Series B preferred shares that took place from December 20, 2006 through January 13, 2007.

      The board is required to meet at least once each quarter. In addition to the regular meetings, the board may hold interim meetings. Each director has one vote at a meeting of the board. Board meetings are convened and presided over by the chairperson or, in his or her absence, by the vice chairperson or, in the absence of the vice chairperson, by a director elected by the majority of the directors.

      Tianwei Yingli is required to have two supervisors. Tianwei Baobian and we each appoint one supervisor. Each supervisor is appointed for a term of three years and may serve consecutive terms if re-appointed by the party which originally appointed such supervisor.

The major duties and powers of the supervisors are as follows:
  •  inspect financial affairs of Tianwei Yingli;

Subscription Right
      Under the joint venture contract, we granted to Tianwei Baobian a right to subscribe for ordinary shares newly issued by us in exchange for all but not part of Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Tianwei Baobian may exercise the subscription right if, and only if, the following conditions are satisfied:
  •  we have completed this offering;
 
  •  ADSs representing our ordinary shares are listed on a qualified securities exchange, which is defined under the joint venture contract to include, among others, the NYSE; and
 
  •  Tianwei Baobian obtains all necessary approvals from relevant PRC government authorities for acquiring our ordinary shares as a result of exercising the subscription right.
      Subject to applicable laws in the PRC, the Cayman Islands, any jurisdiction in which our ADSs are listed and any jurisdiction in which a qualified securities exchange, including the NYSE, is located and further subject to the listing rules of such exchange, Tianwei Baobian may exercise the subscription right by sending a written notice to us within one month following the first date on which all conditions listed above are satisfied, accompanied by copies of related approvals and opinion of counsel.
      Prior to exercising its subscription right, Tianwei Baobian is required to retain an asset valuation firm reasonably acceptable to us to obtain a valuation of Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli in accordance with internationally accepted valuation methods and relevant PRC laws and regulations. The valuation report will need to be acknowledged by both Tianwei Baobian and us. Under relevant PRC laws and regulations, the value of Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli agreed by Tianwei Baobian and us for the purpose of Tianwei Baobian’s exercise of the subscription right shall not be lower than 90% of the value of such equity interest as indicated in the valuation report.
      The number of our new ordinary shares that we are obligated to issue to Tianwei Baobian upon its exercise of the subscription right will be calculated according to the following formula:
                 
Number of new shares to be issued to Tianwei Baobian  
=
  Total number of our shares immediately before the exercise of the subscription right  
×
  Percentage of Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli immediately before the exercise of the subscription right
 
Percentage of our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli immediately before the exercise of the subscription right (1)
 
(1)  Tianwei Baobian and we have agreed that the effective equity interest percentage in Tianwei Yingli indirectly held by Tianwei Baobian by way of its ownership of the equity interest in us following its exercise of the subscription right must be equal to the equity interest percentage in Tianwei Yingli directly held by Tianwei Baobian immediately prior to the exercise of the subscription right.
     If Tianwei Baobian is unable to exercise the subscription right within a 300-day period from the date of the completion of our initial public offering and listing of our ADSs on a qualified securities exchange, Tianwei Baobian may request us to make best efforts to purchase from Tianwei Baobian all but not part of its equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Upon such request by Tianwei Baobian, we will undertake to use our best efforts to assist Tianwei Baobian in completing the transfer of such equity interest held by Tianwei Baobian. The manner and the price at which Tianwei Baobian sells its equity interest in Tianwei Yingli will be decided by mutual agreement between Tianwei Baobian and us based on the fair market value of its and our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, respectively, and in accordance with relevant PRC laws and regulations.
Tianwei Yingli’s Registered Capital
      Tianwei Yingli currently has a registered capital of RMB 715.8 million, of which we contributed RMB 666.8 million, currently representing 62.13% of Tianwei Yingli’s equity interest, and Tianwei Baobian contributed RMB 49.0 million, currently representing the remaining 37.87% of Tianwei Yingli’s interest.

Table of Contents

Upon the completion of relevant PRC registration procedures for the additional equity contribution of US$118 million, Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital would increase to RMB 1,624.4 million, representing the equity interests in Tianwei Yingli’s equity interest held by us and Tianwei Baobian of 70.11% and 29.89%, respectively. See “— Private Equity Investments and Other Financings Following the Restructuring.” The registered capital of a company refers to the total amount of the capital subscribed by the equity interest holders of such company, as registered with relevant authorities. A shareholder of a company is entitled to the rights to and interests in such company in proportion to the fully paid amount of the registered capital of such company for which such shareholder subscribes or as otherwise agreed among the shareholders of such company. Such rights and interests include the rights to nominate directors to the board and receive dividends in proportion to the fully paid amount of the registered capital subscribed by such equity interest holders or as otherwise agreed among such equity interest holders. Under the PRC law, the rights and interests of a shareholder to a limited liability company are generally referred to as “equity interest.”
Increase or Reduction of Tianwei Yingli’s Registered Capital
Approval by the Board and the Relevant PRC authority
      Any increase or reduction of Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital is subject to unanimous approval of all directors present in person or by proxy at a meeting of the board or, in the event of a written resolution, the unanimous approval of all directors, as well as approval of the relevant PRC authority.
Preemptive Right
      If the board resolves to increase Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital, both Tianwei Baobian and we have the preemptive right to make additional contributions to the registered capital in proportion to its and our respective equity interests in Tianwei Yingli as of the date of the board’s resolution. If Tianwei Baobian and we choose to make such additional contributions, we are obligated to pay in full our respective additional contributions within 30 days after the relevant PRC authority approves the increase of Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital.
      If a party notifies the board in writing of its decision not to make all or part of the additional contribution that it is entitled to make, or fails to pay in full its additional contribution within 30 days after the approval by the relevant PRC authority (such party being the non-contributing party), the other party has the right, but not the obligation, to make an additional contribution to the extent that the first party fails or elects not to contribute (such other party, if it so contributes, being the contributing party). In this event, the board will retain an independent asset valuation firm to obtain a valuation of Tianwei Yingli in accordance with internationally accepted valuation methods and relevant PRC laws and regulations. If the non-contributing party does not make any additional contribution to Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital while the contributing party does, the contributing party’s shareholding percentage in Tianwei Yingli immediately after its contribution will be calculated as follows:
(MATH EQUATION)
 
(1)  Fair market value means the expected value of Tianwei Yingli immediately following the contribution by the contributing party to Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital.

Our Additional Contribution to Tianwei Yingli’s Registered Capital with Proceeds from this Offering or Private Placements
      Notwithstanding the above, if we intend to use proceeds from this offering or any private placement transaction to make additional contributions to Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital, Tianwei Baobian must cause all directors appointed by Tianwei Baobian to vote in favor of an increase of Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital, and to take all actions necessary to obtain the approval of the relevant PRC authority. In such event, the board shall retain an independent asset valuation firm to obtain a valuation of Tianwei Yingli in accordance with internationally accepted valuation methods and relevant PRC laws and regulations. The percentage of our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli immediately after we make an additional contribution to Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital with proceeds of this offering or any private placement transaction will be calculated as follows:
(MATH EQUATION)
 
(1)  Fair market value means the expected value of Tianwei Yingli immediately following our contribution to Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital with proceeds from this offering or from a private placement transaction, as the case may be. After our additional contribution as described above, Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli will be diluted in the same proportion as our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli immediately prior to such additional contribution.
Transfer of Equity Interests in Tianwei Yingli
      All or part of the equity interests in Tianwei Yingli held by Tianwei Baobian and us may be transferred to third parties subject to the provisions described below.

The non-transferring party may exercise its right of first refusal by sending a written notice, or the acceptance notice, to the transferring party within 30 days after receipt of the offer notice, notifying the transferring party of the non-transferring party’s intent to acquire all, but not less than all, of the offered interest.
      The non-transferring party will be deemed to have consented to the proposed transfer if the transferring party has not received an acceptance notice within 30 days after the non-transferring party’s receipt of the offer notice. In such an event, the transferring party may transfer the offered interest to the proposed third-party transferee within 60 days after expiration of the 30-day period as provided above and on terms no more favorable than specified in the offer notice, and the non-transferring party is obligated to sign a statement indicating its consent and waiver of its right of first refusal.
      Notwithstanding the right of first refusal as described above, after completion of this offering and listing of our ADSs on the NYSE, all or any part of the interest in Tianwei Yingli held by Tianwei Baobian or us may be transferred to its or our respective affiliates, and the other party is obligated to consent to such transfer.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
      You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the section entitled “Selected Consolidated Financial and Operating Data,” and the consolidated financial statements and the related notes of us and our predecessor included elsewhere in this prospectus. The discussion in this section contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results and the timing of selected events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.
      Yingli Green Energy was incorporated on August 7, 2006. On September 5, 2006, Yingli Group, an entity controlled by Mr. Liansheng Miao, our chairperson and chief executive officer, who also controls our controlling shareholder, Yingli Power, transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to Yingli Green Energy. For further details on this transaction, see “Restructuring.” As Yingli Group and we were entities under common control at the time of the transfer, the 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli were recorded by us at the historical cost to Yingli Group, which approximated the historical carrying value of the assets and liabilities of Tianwei Yingli. For financial statements reporting purposes, Tianwei Yingli is deemed to be our predecessor for periods prior to September 5, 2006.
      In our discussion of the year ended December 31, 2006, we refer to certain line items or captions in the financial statements as “combined” for comparative purposes. These unaudited combined amounts represent the addition of the amounts for certain financial statement line items or captions of Tianwei Yingli, our predecessor, for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006, and the amounts for the corresponding financial statement line items or captions of Yingli Green Energy, for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006. For the period from August 7, 2006 through September 4, 2006, during which the financial statements of the predecessor and those of the Yingli Green Energy overlap, Yingli Green Energy did not engage in any business or operations. The unaudited combined financial data for the year ended December 31, 2006 do not comply with U.S. GAAP. We are including these unaudited combined amounts to supplementally provide information which we believe will be helpful to gaining a better understanding of our results of operations and improve the comparative analysis against the prior periods, each of which included a full fiscal year. These unaudited combined amounts do not purport to represent what our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows would have been in such periods if Yingli Group had transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us on January 1, 2006.
Overview
      We are one of the leading vertically integrated PV product manufacturers in China. Through Tianwei Yingli, our principal operating subsidiary based in China, we design, manufacture and sell PV modules, and design, assemble, sell and install PV systems. We sell PV modules to PV system integrators and distributors located in various market around the world, including Germany, Spain, China and the United States. Currently, we also sell PV systems primarily to customers in China.
      We conduct all of our operations through Tianwei Yingli. Tianwei Yingli was formed as a limited liability company established in China in August 1998 with Yingli Group as one of its initial shareholders. As part of a restructuring, Mr. Liansheng Miao, the controlling shareholder of Yingli Group, established Yingli Power in the British Virgin Islands and established us in the Cayman Islands as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Yingli Power, and on September 5, 2006, Yingli Group transferred all of its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us for approximately RMB 134.6 million (US$17 million, as translated at the applicable rate at the historical transaction date) in cash. Subsequently we completed private placements of Series A preferred shares, Series B preferred shares, warrants, mandatory convertible bonds and mandatory redeemable bonds, and as a result, Mr. Liansheng Miao’s effective ownership percentage in us decreased from 100% to 56.70% on an as-converted, fully diluted basis immediately prior to this offering. Following such private placements and the equity contribution of proceeds from such private placements to Tianwei Yingli, our current ownership percentage in Tianwei Yingli’s equity interests is 62.13% and would increase to 70.11%

      Our production capacity and operations have grown significantly since we completed construction of our first manufacturing facilities for PV modules in 2002. We use most of the polysilicon ingots and wafers and PV cells we produce for the production of PV modules, which we sell to third party customers. We sold 4.7 megawatts, 11.9 megawatts and 51.3 megawatts of PV modules in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
      The most significant factors that affect our financial performance and results of operations are:
  •  industry demand;
 
  •  government subsidies and economic incentives;
 
  •  capacity;
 
  •  availability and price of polysilicon;
 
  •  vertically integrated manufacturing capabilities;
 
  •  competition and product pricing; and
 
  •  manufacturing technologies.
Industry Demand
      Our business and revenue growth depend on the market demand for PV products. Although solar power technology has been used for several decades, the PV market grew significantly only in the past several years. According to Solarbuzz, the global PV market, as measured by annual PV system installation, increased from 345 megawatts in 2001 to 1,744 megawatts in 2006. Solarbuzz’s “Balanced Energy” forecast scenario forecasted global PV industry revenues and PV system installations to be US$18.6 billion and 4,177 megawatts in 2011, respectively. Demand tends to be lower in the first quarter than in the subsequent three quarters in a given year, primarily because of adverse weather conditions in our key markets, such as Germany, which complicate the installation of solar power systems. See “Business — Industry” for a more detailed discussion on the factors driving the growth of the PV industry and the challenges that it faces.
Government Subsidies and Economic Incentives
      We believe that the near-term growth of the market for PV products depends largely on the availability and size of government subsidies and economic incentives. Today, the cost of solar power substantially exceeds the cost of electrical power generated from conventional fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas. As a result, governments in many countries, including Germany, Spain, Italy, the United States, Japan and China, have provided subsidies and economic incentives for the use of renewable energy such as solar power to reduce dependency on conventional fossil fuels as a source of energy. These subsidies and economic incentives have been in the form of capital cost rebates, feed-in tariffs, tax credits, net metering and other incentives to end-users, distributors, system integrators and manufacturers of solar power products, including PV products. The demand for our PV modules and PV systems in our current, targeted or potential markets is affected significantly by these government subsidies and economic incentives. See “Business — Industry” for a more detailed discussion on the various forms of government subsidies and economic incentives.
Capacity
      In order to take advantage of the rapidly increasing market demand for PV products, we have expanded, and plan to continue to expand, our manufacturing capacity significantly. We started producing PV modules in 2002 with initial production capacity of three megawatts, polysilicon ingots and wafers in October 2003 with initial production capacity of six megawatts and PV cells in March 2004 with initial annual manufacturing capacity of three megawatts. In accordance with our business model of a vertically integrated PV product manufacturer, we expanded our manufacturing capacity for polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV

72


Table of Contents

cells and PV modules to 95 megawatts, 90 megawatts and 100 megawatts, respectively, as of the date of this prospectus.
      The size of production capacity has a significant bearing on the profitability and competitive position of PV product manufacturers. Increased production capacity generates greater revenues through the production and sales of more PV products and also contributes to reduced manufacturing costs through economies of scale. Achieving economies of scale from expanded production capacity is critical to our maintaining competitive position in the PV industry as manufacturers with greater economies of scale can obtain a greater market share of the PV products by offering their products at a more competitive price by virtue of their greater ability to obtain volume discounts from their raw material suppliers and have other bargaining leverage.
      We currently plan to expand our annual manufacturing capacity for each of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules to 200 megawatts during the first half of 2007, to 400 megawatts by the end of 2008 and to 600 megawatts by 2010 through a new construction project in Baoding, China. We expect that achieving the same level of manufacturing capacity for each of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules will improve our profit margins, as we will no longer need to engage third-party PV cell manufacturers to process a portion of our excess wafers into PV cells for us.
Availability and Price of Polysilicon
      High purity polysilicon and polysilicon scraps are the most important raw materials used in our manufacturing process. In 2003, we produced PV modules using PV cells purchased from third parties, and therefore in 2003, PV cells, not polysilicon, represented our principal cost of revenues.
      Over the past few years, polysilicon suppliers have been raising their prices and adding manufacturing capacity in response to growing demand from the PV and semiconductor industries. Our average purchase price of polysilicon per kilogram, calculated based on the total contract price for the quantity of polysilicon purchased under these contracts during the relevant period of time, has increased by 107% in 2005 compared to 2004 and by 186% in 2006 compared to 2005. We believe the average price of polysilicon will remain high in the near term compared to its historical levels. The increasing price of polysilicon has driven up our manufacturing costs in the past three years and may further drive up our manufacturing costs notwithstanding our continuing efforts to use polysilicon more efficiently.
      Building polysilicon manufacturing lines generally requires significant upfront capital commitment and it typically takes an average of 18 to 24 months to construct a manufacturing line and put it into production. As a result, polysilicon suppliers are generally willing to expand their production capacity only if they are certain of sufficient potential customer demand to justify such capital commitment. Therefore, polysilicon suppliers typically require customers to make a certain percentage of an initial advance payment followed by additional advance payments of the remaining balance in advance of shipment. As a result, the purchase of polysilicon has required, and will continue to require, us to make significant working capital commitments beyond the capital generated from our cash flows from operations. We are required to maintain adequate cash position to continue to support our purchases of raw materials.
      Our process technology enables us to increase our utilization of polysilicon scraps in the production of ingots and wafers. The price of polysilicon scraps has historically been significantly lower than the price of high purity polysilicon. However, due to the PV industry’s growing demand for polysilicon scraps, prices of polysilicon scraps have also been increasing.
      The increase in demand for polysilicon which outpaced the increase in polysilicon manufacturing capacity has caused polysilicon supply shortages in the PV industry since 2004, and we have from time to time experienced late or failed deliveries and supply shortages. To date, such late or failed deliveries and supply shortages have had no material effect on our output level. As the PV industry continues to grow, the availability of high purity polysilicon and polysilicon scraps will, to a large extent, determine the output of PV product manufacturers. Failure to obtain sufficient quantities of high purity polysilicon and polysilicon scraps could limit our ability to expand our manufacturing capacity as currently planned and consequently

73


Table of Contents

decrease our revenues. We expect that the supply of high purity polysilicon and polysilicon scraps will continue to be tight in the near future.
      In order to secure adequate and timely supply of high purity polysilicon and polysilicon scraps, we have entered into various purchase agreements and memorandums of understanding with local and foreign suppliers, including the world’s major polysilicon suppliers. We have concluded, and are in the process of negotiating, new contracts with our major suppliers to secure the supply for the majority of polysilicon required for the current capacity and the additional capacity planned for 2007. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to secure sufficient quantities of polysilicon and polysilicon scraps to support the expansion of our manufacturing capacity as currently planned. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Us and the PV Industry — We are currently experiencing and may continue to experience an industry-wide shortage of polysilicon. Our failure to obtain sufficient quantities of polysilicon in a timely manner could disrupt our operations, prevent us from operating at full capacity or limit our ability to expand as planned, which will reduce, and limit the growth of, our manufacturing output and revenue.”
      Historically, the effect of the increase in the cost of polysilicon has been partially offset by our greater scalability of operations, increasingly efficient use of polysilicon and improvements in our process technologies and increased price of PV modules. As a result, despite the sharp increases in the cost of polysilicon, our cost of revenues for the sale of PV modules as a percentage of net revenues from the sale of PV modules, decreased from 79.5% in 2004 to 69.8% in 2005, and increased to 71.9% in 2006. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to absorb the rising cost of polysilicon in the future.
Vertically Integrated Manufacturing Capabilities
      We believe our vertically integrated business model offers us several advantages, particularly in areas of cost reduction and quality control, over our competitors that depend on third parties to source core product components. First, the vertical integration enables us to capture margins at every stage of the PV product value chain in which we are engaged. Second, by streamlining our manufacturing processes, we can reduce production costs and costs associated with toll manufacturing, packaging and transportation as well as breakage loss that occurs during shipment between various production locations associated with toll manufacturing arrangements. Toll manufacturing is a type of contract manufacturing frequently used in the PV industry, under which part of the manufacturing process is outsourced to qualified third parties, or toll manufacturers. The raw materials used by toll manufacturers are usually supplied by the outsourcing company in order to control sourcing quality. In our case, toll manufacturing arrangements have been limited to sending a portion of our wafers to third-party PV cell manufacturers and receiving PV cells from them in return. We pay the toll manufacturers a processing fee for such toll manufacturing services. Third, we control operations at substantially all stages of the PV value chain, including research and development, which enables us to more closely monitor the quality of our PV products from start to finish, and design and streamline our manufacturing processes in a way that enables us to leverage our technologies more efficiently and reduce costs at each stage of the manufacturing process. We believe that the synergy effect from our vertically integrated business model has enabled us to reduce the quantity of polysilicon we use to make PV modules, improve the conversion efficiency of our PV cells and reduce the lead time needed to fulfill our customer orders.
Competition and Product Pricing
      PV modules, which are currently our principal products, are priced primarily on the basis of the number of watts of electricity they generate and the market price per watt for PV modules. We price our PV modules based on the prevailing market prices at the time we enter into sales contracts with our customers or as our customers place their purchase orders with us, taking into account various factors including, among others, the size of the contract or the purchase order, the strength and history of our relationship with a particular customer and our polysilicon costs. We believe that the quality of our PV products and our low-cost manufacturing capabilities have enabled us to price our products competitively and will further provide us with flexibility in adjusting the price of our products without significantly affecting our profit margins.

74


Table of Contents

      Since 2003, the average selling price for PV modules has been rising across the industry, due to the high demand for PV modules as well as rising polysilicon costs during the same period. Correspondingly, the average selling price per watt of our PV modules increased from US$2.83 in 2004 to US$3.49 in 2005 and to US$3.82 in 2006 (each computed as the total sales of PV modules divided by the total watts of the PV modules sold during a given period, and translated into U.S. dollars at the noon buying rate at the end of such period as certified by the United States Federal Reserve Board). However, we expect that the prices of PV products, including PV modules, will decline over time due to increased supply of PV products, reduced manufacturing costs from economies of scale, advancement of manufacturing technologies and cyclical downturns in the price of polysilicon. Fluctuations in prevailing market prices may have a material effect on the prices of our PV modules and our profitability, particularly if the price of PV modules declines or if the price of PV modules rises at a slower pace than the cost of polysilicon increases.
      We sell our PV modules primarily through sales contracts with a term of less than one year and are obligated to deliver PV modules according to pre-agreed prices and delivery schedules. We typically require our customers to pay a certain percentage of the purchase price as advance payment within a short period after signing the sales contracts. Some of our customers make advance payment of another portion of the purchase price within a short period before we ship the goods. The percentage of advance payments varies depending on the credit status of our customers, our relationship with the customers, market demand and the terms of a particular contract.
Manufacturing Technologies
      The advancement of manufacturing technologies is important in increasing the conversion efficiency of PV cells and reducing the production costs of PV products. Because PV modules are priced based on the number of watts of electricity they generate, higher conversion efficiency generally leads to higher revenues from the sale of PV modules.
      We are continuously developing advanced manufacturing technologies to increase the conversion efficiency of our PV cells. We employ a number of techniques to reduce our production costs while striving to reach a PV cell conversion efficiency ratio that is on par with or above an acceptable range. First, we use multicrystalline polysilicon, which is less expensive than monocrystalline polysilicon for our feedstock. While multicrystalline polysilicon tends to yield lower conversion efficiency than monocrystalline polysilicon, we believe cost savings from the use of multicrystalline polysilicon outweigh the reduced level of conversion efficiency. Second, we use polysilicon feedstock that mixes high purity polysilicon with polysilicon scraps, which is substantially less expensive than high purity polysilicon, at a ratio which we believe yields an optimal balance of cost and quality. Third, our research and development team continues to focus on finding ways to improve our manufacturing technology and reduce manufacturing costs without compromising the quality of our products.
Net Revenues
      We currently derive net revenues from three sources:
  •  Sales of PV modules , which are currently our principal source of revenues and are primarily driven by market demand as well as our production capacity;
 
  •  Sales of PV systems , which consist of sales of PV systems and related installation services;
 
  •  Other revenues , which consist primarily of sales of raw materials and to a lesser extent, sales from processing PV cells into PV modules for third-party vendors. Sales of raw materials consist of sales of polysilicon scraps that are originally purchased by us but are not used in our manufacturing process because they are found to be of substandard quality for our products. We currently sell such materials to third parties at a profit due to industry-wide shortage for polysilicon but we cannot assure you that we will continue to be able to do so in the future. We do not expect to enter into similar processing arrangements to a significant degree once we attain parity in production capacity for different phases of our product value chain.

     Our net revenues are net of business tax, value-added tax, city construction tax, education surcharge and returns and exchanges of products. Key factors affecting our net revenues include the average selling price per watt and wattage of our PV modules sold.
      We have been dependent on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues. In 2004, 2005 and 2006, sales to customers that individually exceeded 10% of our consolidated net revenues accounted for 35.1%, 38.7% and 38.9% of our consolidated net revenues, respectively. Our largest customers have changed from year to year due to the rapid growth of the sales of our PV modules, our diversification into new geographic markets and our ability to find new customers willing to place large orders with us. Customers whose purchases accounted for 10.0% or more of our consolidated net revenue were Conergy, Sunline and Inceisa, one of our Series B preferred shareholders, in 2006.

     All of our net revenues from sales of PV systems are currently derived from China. In 2003, we were awarded a large-scale, government-sponsored stand-alone PV system project in the Western China. This project, known as the “Electrification Project for Townships in The Western China,” was a government-sponsored project for installation of stand-alone PV systems, for which we installed nine solar power stations in Sichuan Province with total power output of approximately 0.9 megawatts from 2003 to 2004.

Cost of Revenues
      Our cost of PV module sales consists primarily of:
  •  Polysilicon. The cost of high-purity polysilicon and polysilicon scraps is the largest component of our total cost of revenues. We purchase polysilicon from various suppliers, including silicon manufacturers and distributors.
 
  •  Other raw materials. Other raw materials include crucibles, silicon carbides, cutting fluid, steel cutting wires, alkaline detergents, metallic pastes, laminate materials, silica gel, tempered glass, aluminum frames, solder, junction boxes, cables, connectors and other chemical agents and electronic components.
 
  •  Toll manufacturing. We process silicon raw materials into ingots and produce wafers, PV cells and PV modules in-house. As our PV cell production capacity used to be less than the production capacities for our wafers and PV modules, we used to send a portion of excess wafers to third-party PV cell manufacturers and receive PV cells from them under toll manufacturing arrangements which are then used to produce our PV modules. As our PV cell production has reached the same level as our wafer and PV module production through the ramp-up of our production capacity, we have terminated these toll manufacturing arrangements. The cost of producing PV cells through a toll manufacturing arrangement is typically higher than the cost of producing them in-house.
 
  •  Direct labor. Direct labor costs include salaries and benefits for personnel directly involved in the manufacturing activities.
 
  •  Overhead. Overhead costs include utilities, maintenance of production equipment, land rental expenses and other ancillary expenses associated with the manufacturing activities.

  •  Depreciation of property, plant and equipment. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life, which is 30 years for buildings, eight to ten years for machinery and motor vehicles and four to five years for electronic equipment and furniture and fixtures, taking into account their estimated residual value. Due to our capacity expansion, depreciation in absolute terms has increased significantly. We expect this trend to continue as we continue to expand our manufacturing capacity and build new facilities to attain manufacturing capacity at 600 megawatts for each of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules by 2010.
 
  •  Warranty cost. Our PV modules are typically sold with a two-year limited warranty for defects in materials and workmanship, and a ten-year and 25-year limited warranty against declines of more than 10.0% and 20.0%, respectively, from the initial power generation capacity at the time the product is sold. We maintain warranty reserves to cover potential liabilities that could arise under these warranties. Such warranties require us to fix or replace the defected products. We currently accrue the equivalent of 1% of net revenues as warranty reserves. We have not experienced significant warranty claims since we started selling PV modules in January 2003. For the periods ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, we recorded warranty expense of RMB 1.2 million, RMB 3.5 million and RMB 15.7 million (US$2.0 million), respectively.
      The cost of PV systems includes the costs of PV modules, batteries, inverters, other electronic components and related materials and labor.
      Our cost of revenues is affected primarily by our ability to control raw material costs, achieve economies of scale in our operations and manage our vertically integrated product chain efficiently, which includes our prudent use of toll manufacturing arrangements to fill potential shortfalls in production capacity along the product chain until the disparity between our wafer production capacity and the PV cell production capacity is resolved. Furthermore, we balance automation and manual operation in our manufacturing process, and have been able to increase operating efficiencies and expand our manufacturing capacity cost effectively.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
      Our gross profit is affected by a number of factors, including the average selling prices for our PV products, the cost of polysilicon, product mix, economies of scale and benefits from vertical integration and our ability to cost-efficiently manage our raw material supply. Our gross profit increased from RMB 25.2 million in 2004 to RMB 108.2 million in 2005 and to RMB 452.3 million (US$58.0 million) 2006, while our gross profit margin changed from 20.9% in 2004 to 29.9% in 2005 and to 27.6% in 2006. The increase in gross margin from 2004 and 2005 was primarily due to improved economies of scale, higher operating efficiency and the advancement of process technologies, the effect of which was partially offset by the increase in the cost of polysilicon. The decrease in gross margin from 2005 to 2006 was primarily due to a sharp increase in the cost of polysilicon, which outpaced cost reduction from the improved economies of scale and advancements in our process technologies.
      We may continue to face margin compression pressure in the sales of PV modules due to the increase in the market price of polysilicon and intense competition in the PV module market. We have been able to alleviate some of the margin pressure by manufacturing polysilicon ingots using a higher proportion of cheaper low-purity silicon materials. Furthermore, we believe that as our PV business expands and attains parity in production capacity for different phases of our product value chain, economies of scale and benefits from vertical integration, among other factors, will have a positive effect on our gross profit margins over time.
Operating Expenses
      Our operating expenses consist of:
  •  Selling expenses , which consist primarily of advertising costs, packaging and shipping costs, salaries and employee benefits of sales personnel, sales-related travel and entertainment expenses, amortization

Table of Contents

  of intangible assets (including backlog and customer relationships) and other selling expenses. We expect that our selling expenses will increase in the near term as we increase sales efforts, hire additional sales personnel, target new markets and initiate additional marketing programs to build up our brand. However, we expect that the growth in net revenues will outpace the growth in selling expenses and increase the gross margin over time.
 
  •  General and administrative expenses , which consist primarily of salaries and benefits for our administrative and finance personnel, bad debt expense, other travel and entertainment expenses, bank charges, amortization of technical know-how and depreciation of equipment used for administrative purposes. We expect the general and administrative expenses will increase in the near term as a percentage of net revenue as we hire additional personnel and incur professional expenses to support our operations as a listed company in the United States. However, we expect that general and administrative expenses will decrease as a percentage of net revenues over time as we achieve greater economies of scale.
 
  •  Research and development expenses , which consist primarily of costs of raw materials used in research and development activities, salaries and employee benefits for research and development personnel, and prototype and equipment costs relating to the design, development, testing and enhancement of our products and manufacturing process. We are a party to several research grant contracts with the PRC government under which we receive funds for specified costs incurred in certain research projects. We record such amounts as a reduction to research and development expenses when the related research and development costs are incurred. We expect our research and development expenses (not adjusted for offsets by government grants) to increase as we place a greater strategic focus on PV system sales in overseas markets and as we continue to hire additional research and development personnel and focus on continuous innovation of process technologies for our PV products, including improving the technical know-how to produce ingots and wafers with a higher proportion of polysilicon scraps without compromising the conversion efficiency of our PV cells and modules. We conduct our research and development, design and manufacturing operations in China, where the costs of skilled labor, engineering and technical resources, as well as land, facilities and utilities, tend to be lower than those in more developed countries.

Taxation
      Under current laws of the Cayman Islands, we are not subject to income or capital gains tax. Additionally, dividend payments made by us are not subject to withholding tax in the Cayman Islands.
      Tianwei Yingli, which is registered and operates in a “national high-tech zone” in Baoding, China, qualifies as a “high and new technology enterprise” under the FIE Income Tax Law and as a result has been entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15.0% through 2007. In accordance with the FIE Income Tax Law and the related implementing rules, as a foreign invested enterprise primarily engaged in manufacturing, Tianwei Yingli is entitled to a two-year exemption from the 15.0% enterprise income tax for its first two profitable years following its conversion into a Sino-foreign equity joint venture company, which are currently expected to be 2007 and 2008 for purposes of relevant PRC tax regulations. Tianwei Yingli will thereafter be entitled to a preferential enterprise income tax rate of 7.5% for the succeeding three years, or until 2011. Yingli Green Energy would also be exempted from the withholding tax on dividends it receives from Tianwei Yingli.
      On March 16, 2007, the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law was enacted, and will become effective on January 1, 2008 when the FIE Income Tax Law and the Enterprise Income Tax Provisional Regulations of the PRC are scheduled to expire. Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, Yingli Green Energy may be considered a “resident enterprise” and therefore be subject to the PRC enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on its global income. However, under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, Tianwei Yingli will continue to be entitled to the two-year exemption and three-year half reduction preferential treatment with respect to enterprise income tax for the period from 2007 to 2011 or, if it fails to record profits in 2007, it will continue to be entitled to such exemption and preferential treatment for the period from 2008 to 2012.

Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, Tianwei Yingli will be exempted from the enterprise income tax for its first two profitable years following its conversion into a Sino-foreign equity joint venture company, which are currently expected to be 2007 and 2008. Assuming that Tianwei Yingli qualifies as a “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State” and that Tianwei Yingli records profit in 2007, it will be entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 7.5% from 2009 until 2011 and the preferential income tax rate of 15% will be applicable to Tianwei Yingli starting from 2012. If Tianwei Yingli fails to qualify as a “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State” under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, it will be entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 12.5% from 2009 until 2011 and the standard tax rate of 25% will be applicable to Tianwei Yingli starting from 2012. As a result of the new tax law and regulations, Tianwei Yingli’s effective tax rate may increase in the future.
Critical Accounting Policies
      We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the end of each reporting period and (iii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each reporting period. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, expectations regarding the future based on available information and reasonable assumptions, which together form a basis for making judgments about matters not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. We consider the policies discussed below to be critical to an understanding of our financial statements as their application places the most significant demands on the judgment of our management.
     Significant Factors, Assumptions and Methodologies Used In Determining the Fair value of Series A and B preferred shares and warrants
      We issued 8,081,801 Series A preferred shares at US$2.10 with a detachable warrant to purchase 678,811 ordinary shares at US$2.10, or Series A warrant. We also issued 20,268,872 Series B preferred shares at US$4.835 per share with detachable warrants to purchase 2,112,057 ordinary shares at US$0.01, or Series B warrants, to certain Series B preferred shareholders. In addition, in conjunction with the repayment of a convertible loan issued by Tianwei Yingli to China Foreign Economics and Trade & Investment Co., Ltd., we issued a warrant, or the Sunshine warrant, to purchase 2,068,252 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$4.835 per share to China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd.
      The net proceeds received from the issuance of Series A preferred shares with a detachable warrant were allocated to the Series A preferred shares and Series A warrant based on their relative fair value of US$2.08 per share and US$0.31 per share, respectively. The net proceeds received from the issuance of Series B preferred shares with detachable warrants were allocated to the Series B preferred shares and Series B warrants based on their relative fair values of US$4.79 per share and US$0.42 per share, respectively. For purposes of allocating the net proceeds received from the Series A and Series B preferred shares that were issued with detachable warrants, the methods and assumptions used in determining the fair values of the preferred shares and warrants on a stand-alone basis are described below.
      In determining the fair value of the preferred shares, we considered the guidance prescribed by the AICPA Audit and Accounting Practice Aid “Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation,” or Practice Aid. Specifically, paragraph 16 of the Practice Aid sets forth the preferred types of valuation that should be used. We followed the “level A” recommendation, the most preferred valuation method recommended by the Practice Aid. The stand-alone fair value of Series A and B preferred shares that were issued with detachable warrants was determined based on a contemporaneous valuation made by us with the assistance of an independent valuation firm American Appraisal China Limited, or American Appraisal. The following describes the methodology and major assumptions used by us for such valuation.

81


Table of Contents

      Since our capital structure comprised of preferred shares and ordinary shares at each measurement date, we allocated our enterprise value between each class of equity using an option pricing method. The option pricing method treats ordinary shares and preferred shares as call options on the enterprise value, with exercise prices based on the liquidation preference of the preferred shares.
      In determining our enterprise value at each measurement date, we used a weighted average equity value derived by using a combination of the income approach (discounted cash flow method) and the market approach (guideline company method) and applied a 40% weight to the market approach and a 60% weight to the income approach to arrive at the fair value. There was no significant difference between the enterprise value of our valuation derived using the income approach and the enterprise value derived using the market approach.
      For the market approach, we considered the market profile and performance of eleven guideline companies with businesses similar to those of us. We used information from the eleven listed guideline companies to derive market multiples. The eleven guideline companies identified were: Energy Conversion Devices, Inc, E-Ton Solar Tech Co Ltd, Suntech Power Holdings Co Ltd, Solar Fabrik AG, Sunways AG, Solarworld AG, Solon AG, Q-Cells AG, Motech Industries Inc, SunPower Corporation, Ersol Solar Energy AG. We then calculated the following three multiples for the guideline companies: enterprise value to sales multiple, enterprise value to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, multiple and enterprise value to earnings before interest and tax, or EBIT, multiple. Due to the different growth rates, profit margins and risk levels of us and the guideline companies, price multiple adjustments were made. We used the 2007 adjusted median price multiples of the guideline companies in the valuation of our enterprise value. Estimated sales, EBITDA and EBIT of the guideline companies for 2007 were extracted from Institutional Brokers Estimate System (I/ B/ E/ S) Earning Estimates, Bloomberg.
      For the income approach, we utilized a discounted cash flow, or DCF, analysis based on our projected cash flows from 2006 through 2010. We used a weighted average cost of capital, or WACC, of 20% as of September 28, 2006 and 18% as of December 20, 2006, based on the WACC of the guideline companies.
      We also applied a discount for lack of marketability or LOMD of 17% as of September 28, 2006 and 11% as of December 20, 2006 to reflect the fact that there is no ready market for shares in a closely held company like us. Because ownership interests in closely held companies are typically not readily marketable compared to similar public companies, management believes, a share in a privately held company is usually worth less than an otherwise comparable share in a publicly held company and therefore applied a discount for the lack of marketability of the privately held shares. When determining the discount for lack of marketability, the Black-Scholes option model was used. Under option pricing method, the cost of the put option, which can hedge the price change before the privately held shares can be sold, was considered as a basis to determine the discount for lack of marketability. The option pricing method was used because this method takes into account certain company-specific factors, including the size of our business and volatility of the share price of comparable companies engaged in the same industry. Volatility of 58% as of September 28, 2006 and 47% as of December 20, 2006 by using the mean of volatility of the guideline companies used in the market approach.
      Based on valuation performed by us with the assistance of American Appraisal, the estimated fair value per share of Series A preferred shares as of September 28, 2006 was US$2.40 and the estimated fair value per share of Series B preferred shares as of December 20, 2006 was US$5.38.
      With respect to the valuation of Series B preferred shares, the estimated stand alone fair value of US$5.38 using the valuation techniques discussed above reasonably approximated the US$4.835 per share paid by third party investors for Series B preferred shares that were issued without any detachable warrants. Management believes that the difference between the fair value determined by us with the assistance of American Appraisal and the US$4.835 was within a tolerable range of reasonableness. In addition, had we utilized the US$4.835 for purposes of determining the relative fair value of the Series B preferred shares issued with warrants, the impact to our results of operations and income available to ordinary shareholders would have been immaterial. Given the subjective nature of various assumptions and estimates that are

82


Table of Contents

required to determine the fair value of preferred shares of a privately held company, the Company believes that the assumptions and methodology utilized were appropriate and reasonable.
      The relative fair value assigned to the Series A warrant, Series B warrants and the stand-alone value Sunshine warrant was approximately US$211,341 (RMB1,671,432), US$850,482 (RMB 6,650,603) and US$496,000 (RMB3,908,381), respectively. We determined the stand-alone per share fair value of the Series A warrant and Series B warrants was US$0.36 and US$0.48 (after a 90% discount), respectively. The fair values of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The significant estimates and assumptions used to value these warrants are as follows:
                         
    Series A warrant   Series B warrants   Sunshine warrant
             
Fair value of ordinary shares at issuance date
  US$ 2.04     US$ 4.74     US$ 4.74  
Expected warrant term
    0.59 year       0.28 year       0.12 year  
Expected volatility
    58%       47%       42%  
Risk-free interest rate
    5.04%       5.05%       5.20%  
Expected dividend rate
    0%       0%       0%  
      We injected to Tianwei Yingli a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the Series B preferred shares in the form of a shareholder loan from us to Tianwei Yingli. The Series B warrants are subject to cancellation and return features upon the conversion of such shareholder loan into an equity interest in Tianwei Yingli following relevant PRC regulatory approvals and completion of related procedural formalities. Based on our successful experience in two prior rounds of private placements, namely in connection with the Series A preferred shares and the mandatory convertible and redeemable bonds, in obtaining similar regulatory approvals for capital increases in Tianwei Yingli, we believe that the probability of obtaining the requisite regulatory approvals for the capital increase related to the Series B preferred shares, which would result in automatic cancellation of the Series B warrants, is 90%. Accordingly, the fair value of the Series B warrants determined utilizing Black-Scholes option pricing model was discounted by 90% to take into account our estimate of the probability of the warrants not being exercised and therefore cancelled. In addition, the Company believes the 90% discount reflects our assumptions based on the best information available in the circumstances, of what the Series B preferred shareholders considered in accepting the terms of the warrants.
      The expected volatility of our future ordinary share price was based on the price volatility of the shares of 11 comparable companies in the PV manufacturing business, which are listed and publicly traded over the most recent period, equal to the expected maturity period of the issued warrants. These companies were used for comparative purposes because we did not have a trading history at the time the warrants were issued and therefore did not have sufficient share price history to calculate our own historical volatility. The selection of such comparable companies is highly subjective. The estimated fair value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant was determined by valuations performed by us with the assistance of American Appraisal, supplemented by the forecasted profitability and cash flows of our business.
      We believe that the increase in the fair value of our ordinary shares since the issuance of Series A preferred shares at US$2.04 on September 28, 2006 to the issuance of Series B preferred shares at US$4.74 on December 20, 2006, is attributable to the following significant factors and events occurred between September 28, 2006 and December 20, 2006:
  •  in November 2006, we successfully completed the issuance of mandatory redeemable bonds and mandatory convertible bonds for an aggregate principal amount of US$85 million, which were used primarily to purchase 150 tons of polysilicon in November and December 2006 and satisfy US$32.6 million of prepayment obligations payable in December 2006 under two long-term polysilicon supply contracts with Wacker Chemie AG. The execution of these contracts and other bulk purchases improved our ability to secure the requisite amount of polysilicon and supported the credibility of our output projections and our confidence to obtain necessary polysilicon supply for 2007 and onwards, which in turn helped to improve our valuation from the time of the issuance of the

83


Table of Contents

  Series A preferred shares in September 2007 to the time of the issuance of the Series B preferred shares in December 2006;
 
  •  in November 2006, we entered into a large sales contract with Acciona Energía, S.A., one of our key customers in Spain, for the delivery of an aggregate of 42 megawatts of PV modules until 2008, which helped to further strengthen our competitive position, improve the accuracy of our average selling price projections, further justify our capacity expansion plan and support our revenue projections. Such contract may not be unilaterally terminated by Acciona, except in limited circumstances, such as bankruptcy of us or a breach of the contract which remains uncured for 60 days after notice thereof;
 
  •  the prices of polysilicon we were able to obtain under these long-term polysilicon supply contracts also supported our belief that the polysilicon price over the long term would fall significantly and, as a result, our gross profit margin would improve over the long term;
 
  •  we were able to hire the chief financial officer, chief operating officer, chief technology officer and financial controller, who helped us to enhance our management capabilities and to execute our business plan; and
 
  •  in light of the greater immediacy of our public offering and the paucity of successful initial public offerings by issuers with principal operating subsidiaries in China from September 2006 through December 2006, we adjusted down the weighted average cost of capital by 2% from September 2006 through December 2006 as the cost of equity had been reduced.

      In addition, we believe the increase in the fair value of our ordinary shares is consistent with the increase in the price paid by third party investors for our shares from US$2.10 per ordinary share, as determined by the Series A preferred investor in September 2006, to US$4.835 per share ordinary share, as determined by the Series B preferred investor in December 2006, each based on the initial conversion rates of one Series A preferred share per ordinary share and one Series B preferred share per ordinary share. We believe that the increase in the consideration paid by third-party investors for our shares was indicative of an increase in our enterprise value as recognized by third parties.
Warranty Cost
      Our PV modules are typically sold with a two-year limited warranty for defects in materials and workmanship, and a 10-year and 25-year limited warranty against declines of more than 10.0% and 20.0% of initial power generation capacity, respectively. Our PV system sales are typically sold with a one- to five-year warranty against defects in our modules, storage batteries, controllers and inverters. We provide for the estimated cost of each warranty at the time revenue is recognized. However we bear the risk of warranty claims long after we have sold our products and recognized revenues. Because we have sold PV modules only since January 2003, and none of our PV modules has been in use for more than five years, we have a limited warranty claim period. We perform industry-standard testing to test the quality, durability and safety of our products. As a result of such tests, we believe the quality, durability and safety of our products are within industry norms. Based on the results of the industry standard testing and consideration given to the warranty accrual practice of other companies in the same business, we record the equivalent of 1% of net revenues as a warranty liability to accrue the estimated cost of our warranty obligations. Actual warranty costs will depend on a variety of factors including actual failure rates, material and product delivery cost at time of failure, and other costs incurred to fulfill the obligation to replace or repair the product. To the extent that warranty costs differ significantly from the estimates, we will revise our warranty provisions accordingly. Any such revisions to our accrued warranty liability will affect our results of operations in the period the revision is made as well as subsequent periods to the extent the amount of estimated warranty provisions of 1% of related sales revenues is adjusted.

Long-lived Assets
      As of December 31, 2006, our intangible assets primarily consisted of technical know-how, customer relationships, long-term supplier agreements and trademarks that were acquired in connection with our acquisitions of minority interests of 2.98% and 8.15% in Tianwei Yingli on November 20, 2006 and December 18, 2006, respectively. We allocate the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value on the date of acquisition, which we refer to as the purchase price allocation. As part of the purchase price allocation, we are required to determine the fair value of any intangibles acquired.
      The determination of the fair value of the intangible assets acquired involves certain judgments and estimates. These judgments can include, but are not limited to, the cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the future. The fair values of the intangible assets acquired were also determined by us with the assistance of American Appraisal. For technical know-how, the fair value was determined based on the excess-earning approach using the present value of the projected earnings attributable to the technical know-how. For customer relationships, the fair value was based on the excess earnings which take into consideration the projected cash flows to be generated from these customers. Future cash flows are predominately based on the net income forecast of these customers which has taken into consideration historical customer attrition and revenue growth. The resulting cash flows are then discounted at a rate approximating our weighted average cost of capital. For long-term supplier agreements, the fair value was based on the discounted present value of the difference between the price of polysilicon as agreed in the supplier agreements and market price. For trademarks, the fair value was based on the “relief from royalty” approach representing the present value of the after-tax cost savings from royalty payments.
      We depreciate and amortize our property, plant, equipment and intangible assets, using the straight-line method of accounting over the estimated useful lives of the assets. We make estimates of the useful lives of plant and equipment (including the salvage values) in order to determine the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded during each reporting period. We estimate the useful lives at the time the assets are acquired based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipated technological or other changes. If technological changes were to occur more rapidly than anticipated or in a different form than anticipated, we might shorten the useful lives assigned to these assets, which would result in the recognition of increased depreciation and amortization expense in the future periods. There has been no change to the estimated useful lives or salvage values during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 and for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006.
      We evaluate long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, which are subject to amortization, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We assess recoverability by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, we recognize an impairment charge based on the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. We estimate the fair value of the asset based on the best information available, including prices for similar assets and in the absence of an observable market price, the results of using a present value technique to estimate the fair value of the asset. For our trademarks which are not subject to amortization, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset. For the periods presented, no impairment on our long-lived assets was recorded.
Share-based Compensation
      As further described in Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, we account for share-based compensation under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.  123-R, “Share-Based Payment,” or SFAS No. 123R. Under SFAS No. 123R, the cost of all share-based payment transactions must be recognized in our consolidated financial statements based on their grant-date fair value over the required period, which is generally the period from the date of grant to the date when the share compensation is no longer contingent

upon additional service from the employee, or the vesting period. We determine the fair value of our employees’ share options as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Under this model, we make a number of assumptions regarding the fair value of the options, including:
  •  the estimated fair value of our ordinary shares on the grant date;
 
  •  the maturity of the options;
 
  •  the expected volatility of our future ordinary share price;
 
  •  the risk-free interest rate, and;
 
  •  the expected dividend rate.
      For the purpose of determining the estimated fair value of our share options that have been granted, we believe that the expected volatility and the estimated share price of our ordinary shares are the most critical assumptions since we were a privately-held company on the date we granted our options. The estimated fair value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant was determined based on valuations also performed by us with the assistance of American Appraisal on our ordinary shares, supplemented by the forecasted profitability and cash flows of our business. We estimated the expected volatility of our future ordinary share price based on the price volatility of the publicly traded ordinary shares of 11 comparable companies in the PV manufacturing business whose shares are publicly traded over the most recent period to be equal to the expected option life of our employees’ share option.
      We had 610,929 employee share options outstanding as of December 31, 2006. The following table sets out information regarding our outstanding employee share options as of December 31, 2006:

      For our share options issued on December 28, 2006, we used an expected volatility of 70% and estimated fair values for our ordinary shares of US$4.74, resulting in estimated fair values of US$3.81 per option. We recorded non-cash share-based compensation expenses of US$7,826 (RMB 61,667) for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006.
      The fair value of our ordinary shares of US$4.74 per share at the date of grant was determined based on a contemporaneous valuation made by us with the assistance of American Appraisal, as of December 28, 2006. The following describes the methodology and major assumptions used.
      Since our capital structure comprised of preferred shares and ordinary shares at the grant date, our enterprise value was allocated between each class of equity using an option pricing method. The option pricing method treats ordinary shares and preferred shares as call options on the enterprise value, with exercise prices based on the liquidation preference of the preferred shares.
      We used a weighted average equity value derived by using a combination of the income approach (discounted cash flow method) and the market approach (guideline company method) and applied a 40% weight to the market approach and a 60% weight to the income approach to arrive at the fair value. There was no significant difference between the enterprise value of our valuation derived using the income approach and the enterprise value derived using the market approach.

      For the market approach, the market profile and performance of eleven guideline companies with businesses similar to those of us were considered. We used information from the eleven listed guideline companies to derive market multiples. The eleven guideline companies identified were: Energy Conversion Devices, Inc, E-Ton Solar Tech Co Ltd, Suntech Power Holdings Co Ltd, Solar Fabrik AG, Sunways AG, Solarworld AG, Solon AG, Q-Cells AG, Motech Industries Inc, SunPower Corporation and Ersol Solar Energy AG. We then calculated the following three multiples for the guideline companies: the enterprise value to sales multiple, the EBITDA multiple and the EBIT multiple. Due to the different growth rates, profit margins and risk levels of the Company and the guideline companies, price multiple adjustments were made. The 2007 adjusted average price multiples of the guideline companies were used in the valuation of our enterprise value.
      For the income approach, a DCF analysis was used based on our projected cash flows from 2006 through 2010. We used a WACC of 18.0%, based on the WACC of the guideline companies.
      A discount for lack of marketability of 11% was also applied to reflect the fact that there is no ready market for shares in a closely held company, such as us. Because ownership interests in closely held companies are typically not readily marketable compared to similar public companies, we believe a share in a privately held company is usually worth less than an otherwise comparable share in a publicly held company and therefore applied a discount for the lack of marketability of the privately held shares. When determining the discount for lack of marketability, the Black-Scholes option model was used. Under option pricing method, the cost of the put option, which can hedge the price change before the privately held shares can be sold, was considered as a basis to determine the discount for lack of marketability. The option pricing method was used because this method takes into account certain company-specific factors, including the size of our business and volatility of the share price of comparable companies engaged in the same industry. Volatility of 58% was determined by using the mean of volatility of the guideline companies used in the market approach.
      Changes in our estimates and assumptions regarding the expected volatility and valuation of our ordinary shares could significantly impact the estimated fair values of our share options and, as a result, our net income and the net income available to our ordinary shareholders.
      We believe that the increase in the fair value of our ordinary shares since the grant of options on December 28, 2006 to the per share price of US$          , the midpoint of the estimated range of the initial public offering price, is attributable to the following significant factors and events since December 28, 2006:
  •  since December 26, 2006, we have entered into two sales contracts with Unitec Europa, S.A. and Sinolink Development Limited to deliver an aggregate of over 30 megawatts of PV modules in 2007, which increased our estimated sales in 2007 to be secured contractually from approximately 70 megawatts of PV modules as of December 28, 2006 to approximately 100 megawatts as of April 30, 2007.
 
  •  we have been able to secure additional supply of polysilicon since December 28, 2006. In April 2007, we entered into a new supply agreement with Sichuan Xingguang Silicon Science and Technology Co., Ltd., a PRC silicon manufacturer, to satisfy a significant portion of our estimated polysilicon needs for 2007 and 2008 and further enhanced the credibility of our output projections for 2007 and 2008, as well as several other supplier contracts in 2007. As a result, we secured as of April 30, 2007 approximately 930 tons of our estimated polysilicon needs for 2007 and approximately 1,200 tons of our estimated polysilicon needs for 2008. In contrast, as of December 28, 2006, we secured approximately 380 tons of our estimated polysilicon needs for 2007 and nil tons for our estimated polysilicon needs for 2008.
 
  •  in March 2007, we successfully added another 30 megawatts cell production capacity which enabled us to reach the current PV cell production capacity of 90 megawatts. This addition in PV cell production capacity enhanced the parity of production capacity at each of our entire supply chain and reduced the need to enter into toll manufacturing arrangements with third-party toll manufacturers, which are more expensive than in-house production;

  •  during the period from January 2007 through March 2007, we obtained additional banking facilities in the amount of RMB 444.0 million, which would be sufficient for us to fund the construction for new production facilities for the silicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules for up to 100 megawatts each as well as the related power generation system until the end of June 2007. The availability of additional funding for capacity expansion increased the likehihood of achieving our output target for 2007 and 2008, as well as sales targets for 2007 and 2008, which in turn helped to improve our valuation. In addition, the production equipment has been delivered on schedule;
 
  •  in April 2007, we arranged for three individuals to become our independent directors upon completion of this offering. As independent directors, these individuals will help us improve our corporate governance and internal controls. In April 2007, we also hired a vice president with extensive experience in the silicon ingots and wafers production process and an assistant financial controller with knowledge of and experience in the areas of U.S. GAAP and internal control over financial reporting;
 
  •  since December 28, 2006, governments in certain of our key overseas markets announced plans to promote the use of alternative and renewable energy sources, which is likely to improve the demand prospects for PV products significantly over the long term. These plans include the Energy Action Plan adopted by the European Council in March 2007, which, among others, set a binding target for the European Union to increase the percentage of energy consumption based on renewable energy sources to 20% of overall energy consumption in the European Union and to increase the percentage of biofuels used in the transport fuel consumed in the European Union to 10% of such transport fuel, in each case by 2020. In addition, the United States also announced a plan in January 2007 to seek a 20% reduction in gasoline consumption in the United States by 2017, which would likely require, among others, the use of approximately 35 billion gallons of renewable and alternative fuels. We believe the positive growth outlook for our products as a result of such government plans in turn improved our valuation;
 
  •  since December 28, 2006, the stock prices of listed PV companies in general, including the 11 companies comparable to us that we examined in connection with the valuation performed by us with the assistance of American Appraisal, improved significantly. For example, the aggregate market capitalization of the 11 companies increased by approximately 30% from January 1, 2007 through May 8, 2007, based on an average increase of average closing stock prices during the same period. We believe that the favorable movements of the stock prices of the PV companies since the beginning of 2007 are due to, among others, the government plans to expand the use of renewable energy sources as described above, news reports in April 2007 that the global solar grade silicon supply is expected to increase significantly starting in 2008 (which exceeded the typical industry estimates made in 2006), and continued technological advancements for producing cheaper PV modules on a per-watt basis, which in the aggregate would contribute to the growth in revenue and profits for PV product manufacturers. We also believe that the investor sentiment with respect to the PV company stocks were positively affected by the improvements in revenues and profits for several listed PV companies, such as Suntech Power Holdings and Solarworld AG. We believe that the strong stock price performance of the PV product manufacturers in general, including the 11 comparable companies we examined for purposes of valuation and several newly listed PV product manufacturers with operations primarily in China, further justify adjusting upwards the fair value of our ordinary shares; and
 
  •  In determining the midpoint of the estimated range of the IPO price of US$          , we utilized the market approach, as compared to a weighted average of the income approach and market approach, which we used in determining the fair value of US$4.74 per share at December 28, 2006. We believe that applying the market approach best reflects our anticipated pricing for this offering. The most significant factors that led to an increase in the fair value of our ordinary shares from US$4.74 as of December 28, 2006 to US$          , the midpoint of estimated price range for this offering under the market approach were: (i) the utilization of our estimated 2008 EBIT for purposes of calculating the midpoint of the estimated price range for this offering versus the utilization of 2007 EBIT for purposes of determining the fair value of US$4.74 per ordinary share as of December 28, 2006 and

  (ii) in light of the market factors described above, an increase by           in the multiple applied to such EBIT from December 28, 2006 for purposes of calculating the fair value of our ordinary shares to the date of this prospectus for purposes of calculating the midpoint of estimated price range for this offering.

      Based on an estimated offering price of US$          per share, the midpoint of the initial public offering price estimated by us as of                     , 2007, the aggregated intrinsic value of the options outstanding as of December 31, 2006 was approximately US$           million. Although it is reasonable to expect that the completion of this offering should increase the value of our ordinary shares because of their increased liquidity and marketability, we believe that the amount of additional value cannot be measured with precision or certainty.
      We are responsible for determining the fair value of our ordinary shares, preferred shares, options and warrants, as of their respective issue dates and as of the reporting date, including the assumptions and methodologies used in such determination, and considered a number of factors, including valuations made with the assistance of American Appraisal, when estimating the fair value of such securities.
Valuation of Inventories
      Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We routinely evaluate quantities and value of our inventories in light of current market conditions and market trends, and records a write-down against the cost of inventories for a decline in net realizable value. The evaluation takes into consideration historic usage, expected demand, anticipated sales price, new product development schedules, the effect that new products might have on the sale of existing products, product obsolescence, customer concentrations, product merchantability and other factors. Market conditions are subject to change and actual consumption of inventories could differ from forecasted demand. Furthermore, the price of polysilicon, our primary raw material, is subject to fluctuations based on global supply and demand. Our management continually monitors the changes in the purchase price paid for polysilicon, including prepayments to suppliers, and the impact of such change on our ability to recover the cost of inventory and our prepayments to suppliers. Our products have a long life cycle and obsolescence has not historically been a significant factor in the valuation of inventories. For the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 and for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, inventory write-downs, which are included in cost of revenues, were RMB 723,582, RMB 557,234, RMB 1,736,729 (US$222,541) and RMB 4,941,887 (US$633,242), respectively.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
      We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts for the estimated loss on receivables when collection may no longer be reasonably assured. We assess collectibility of receivables based on a number of factors including the customer’s financial condition and creditworthiness. To reduce credit risks, we require advance payments from certain customers and also require some of our customers to pay a major portion of the purchase price by letters of credit. Because of the advance payments and the letters of credit payment requirements that we impose on certain of our customers, our allowance for doubtful accounts and provisions for bad debt have not been significant. Although our accounts receivable balance had grown significantly from September 4, 2006 through December 31, 2006 due to sales to several major customers, we effectively managed our credit risk by requiring those customers to pay a portion of the purchase price by letters of credit. As a result, our allowance for doubtful accounts did not increase significantly from September 4, 2006 through December 31, 2006. During the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 and for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, our provision for doubtful accounts amounted to RMB 0.3 million, RMB 1.5 million, RMB 0.5 million (US$68,365) and nil, respectively.

Controls and Procedures
      Prior to this offering, we have been a private company with limited accounting personnel and other resources with which to address our internal controls and procedures. In connection with the audits of our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, our independent auditors identified a number of significant control deficiencies in our internal control procedures which, in the judgment of our independent auditors, adversely affect our ability to record, process and report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of our consolidated financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. Specifically, the significant control deficiencies identified by our independent auditors consist of: (i) the lack of clear procedures, timetables, segregation of duty and review in the financial reporting process, (ii) failure to regularly reconcile the balances of accounts receivable and customer prepayments as recorded in our books and records with our customers, (iii) the lack of sub-ledgers to classify sales transactions by customer, (iv) the lack of process and related controls procedures relating to the recognition of accounts payable and reduction of advance payments, (v) failure to properly record all related party transactions and periodically update the list of such transactions and (vi) failure to properly record the transfer of construction-in-progress to fixed assets on our financial statements. None of the significant deficiencies discovered by our auditors were, individually or in combination with one another, material weaknesses as described in Audit Standard No. 2, An Audit of Internal Control over Financial Reporting Performed in conjunction with an Audit of Financial Statements, of the Public Company Accounting Standards Board, and they were not related to any fraudulent acts. In the past, we also had certain material weaknesses, which other than the remaining significant deficiencies discussed above, have since been remedied.
      In order to remedy the remaining significant deficiencies, we are undertaking several measures to further improve our internal control over financial reporting. We appointed a new chief financial officer and a new financial controller in the fourth quarter of 2006, both of whom have experience with and knowledge of U.S. GAAP. In October 2006, we hired Protiviti, an outside consulting firm, to review our internal control processes, policies and procedures in order to assist us in identifying weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We plan to provide further training to our financial and accounting staff to enhance their knowledge of U.S. GAAP. We are also adopting and implementing additional policies and procedures, including an enterprise resource planning system, to strengthen our internal controls over financial reporting. We plan to remedy these significant deficiencies in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley

Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. If we fail to timely achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal control, we may not be able to conclude that we have effective internal control over financial reporting at a reasonable assurance level. Moreover, effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and is important to help prevent fraud. As a result, our failure to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which in turn could harm our business and negatively impact the trading price of our ADSs. Furthermore, we anticipate that we will incur considerable costs and use significant management time and other resources in an effort to comply with Section 404 and other requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Results of Operations
      The following table sets forth a summary of the unaudited results of operations of us and our predecessor, Tianwei Yingli, for the periods indicated. In our discussion of the results for the year ended December 31, 2006, we refer to certain line items in the statement of income as “combined” for comparative purposes. These combined amounts represent the addition of the amounts for certain income statement line items of Tianwei Yingli, our predecessor, for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006, and the amounts for the corresponding income statement line items of us, for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006. For the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through September 4, 2006, during which the financial statements of the predecessor and those of Yingli Green Energy overlap, Yingli Green Energy did not engage in any business or operations. The unaudited combined financial data for the year ended December 31, 2006 do not comply with U.S. GAAP or the rules relating to pro forma presentation. We are including these unaudited combined amounts to supplementally provide information which we believe will be helpful to gaining a better understanding of our results of operations and improve the comparative analysis against the prior periods, each of which included a full fiscal year. These unaudited combined amounts do not purport to represent what our results of operations would have been in such periods if Yingli Group had transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us on January 1, 2006.

Note:
(1)  This line item for the combined period is not presented because it is not comparable to the line item that would have been for such period if Yingli Group had transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us on January 1, 2006 because the minority interest for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, which reflects the ownership of Tianwei Yingli not held by us, is not comparable or relevant to the results of operations of our predecessor.
The period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 (the predecessor period in 2006) and the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006 compared to year ended December 31, 2005
      Net Revenues. Total net revenues was RMB 884.0 million (US$113.3 million) for the predecessor period in 2006 and RMB 754.8 million (US$96.7 million) for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, in each case primarily from the sales of PV modules. Total net revenues in 2005 amounted to RMB361.8 million. Our predecessor, Tianwei Yingli, as a domestic company, was subject to sales tax and surcharges at a percentage of value added tax. For the year ended December 31, 2005 and the predecessor period in 2006, sales tax and surcharges were at the rate of approximately 1% of gross revenues. On September 5, 2006, as a result of our reorganization, Tianwei Yingli’s tax status changed and Tianwei Yingli was no longer subject to sales tax and surcharges, and as a result, our sales taxes and surcharges decreased from 1% for the predecessor period in 2006 to nil for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006.
      Our PV module sales increased in the predecessor period in 2006, primarily as a result of our further expansion in Spain and Hong Kong. Our PV module sales in Spain as a percentage of total net revenues increased from 7.9% in 2005 to 8.9% for the predecessor period in 2006. Our sales growth in Spain was primarily attributable to increased demand from Acciona, our recent and currently largest customer in Spain, to which we started selling PV modules in 2005. Our sales in Hong Kong as a percentage of total net revenues increased from nil in 2005 to approximately 9.5% in the predecessor period in 2006, primarily as a result of the commencement of our sales in Hong Kong, which were based on referrals by our system integration customers in Europe, and the large trading volume of PV modules in the Hong Kong market. Our PV sales in Germany, our largest market, as a percentage of total net revenues increased from 66.1% in 2005 to 68.2% for the predecessor period in 2006, primarily as a result of laws and regulations favourable to the alternative energy industries, including PV industry, and, to a lesser extent, strengthening relationships with our existing customers. Our sales in the United States as a percentage of total net revenues decreased from 1.8% in 2005 to nil for the predecessor period in 2006, primarily due to a decrease in the unit sale prices of the PV modules in the United States.
      Our PV module sales for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 continued to reflect continued geographic diversification. Our sales in Spain as a percentage of total net revenues increased from 8.9% for the predecessor period in 2006 to 20.9% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, primarily due to an increase in sales to Acciona. Our sales in Germany as a percentage of total sales decreased from 68.2% for the predecessor period in 2006 to 53.9% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, primarily as a result of capacity constraints and our decision to expand our presence in Spain. During the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, our sales in the United States as a percentage of total net revenues increased to 5.4% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 from nil in the predecessor period in 2006, primarily as a result of a rise in the unit sale prices of PV modules and the announcement in late 2006 of energy policies favorable to alternative energy.
      Net revenues from sales of PV systems for the predecessor period in 2006 was RMB 0.9 million (US$0.1 million), or 0.1% of total net revenues, as compared to RMB 14.3 million (US$1.9 million), or 1.9% of total net revenues, for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. Sales of PV systems as a percentage of total net revenue was primarily as a result of completion of a large PV system project in China in the fourth quarter of 2006. Net revenues from sales of PV systems amounted to RMB 8.1 million in 2005, or 2.2% of total net revenues. PV system sales as a percentage of total net

Table of Contents

revenues decreased from 2.2% in 2005 to 0.1% in the predecessor period in 2006, primarily because the PV system projects in the predecessor period in 2006 were completed during the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. We defer revenue recognition until the time that the PV system projects are completed.
      Other revenues amounted to RMB 19.7 million, or 5.5% of total net revenues, in 2005, RMB 26.6 million (US$3.4 million), or 3.0% of total net revenues, for the predecessor period in 2006 and RMB 66.4 million (US$8.5 million) or 8.8% of total net revenues for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, in each case, primarily from the occasional sales of raw materials. The increase in other revenues in the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 was primarily due to the consummation of two major sales of raw materials in the fourth quarter of 2006. Other revenue as a percentage of total net revenues decrease from 5.5% in 2005 to the 3.0% in the predecessor period in 2006 was primarily due to the increase of PV module sales as a percentage of net revenues which weighted other revenue as a percentage of net revenue down.
      Cost of Revenues. Cost of PV modules sales as a percentage of net revenues from PV modules decreased from 69.8% in 2005 to 68.4% for the predecessor period in 2006 but increased to 76.3% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. The decrease from 2005 to the predecessor period in 2006 was primarily due to increased usage of less expensive reclaimable polysilicon material which resulted in lower production costs. The increase from the predecessor period in 2006 to the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 was primarily due to an increase in our average cost of polysilicon per watt as a result of the rising market price of polysilicon. In both the predecessor period and the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, we purchased the majority of our polysilicon either through short-term supply arrangements or from the then-prevailing spot market. Prices under these short-term arrangements and in the spot market both rose continuously in the past few years due to industry-wide supply shortage. The effect of the unit cost increase of polysilicon was partially offset by a decrease in our polysilicon usage per watt because we were able to manufacture PV products with thinner and larger silicon wafer, achieve higher conversion efficiencies and improve operation efficiencies.
      Cost of PV systems sales as a percentage of net revenues from sales of PV systems decreased from 111.8% for the predecessor period in 2006 to 69.3% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 primarily due to the higher margin attributable to a large PV system project completed in the fourth quarter of 2006. The loss in the predecessor period in 2006 in an amount of RMB 0.1 million (US$13,710) was primarily due to several sales of PV systems in certain areas in the PRC at prices below the cost in order to establish presence of our PV products in those areas.
      Gross Profit. As a result of the factors described above, the gross profit margin decreased from 30.8% for the predecessor period in 2006 to 23.8% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. Our gross margin in 2005 was 29.9%. We estimate that our margin will be improved by approximately 1% in 2007 as a result of the exemption from sales tax and surcharges based on historical results.
      Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were 24.5 million in 2005, RMB 37.7 million (US$4.8 million) for the predecessor period in 2006 and RMB 47.7 million (US$6.1 million) for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. Operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue increased from 4.3% for the predecessor period in 2006 to 6.3% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 for reasons described below.
  •  Selling expenses. Selling expenses as a percentage of net revenues was 1.1% for the predecessor period in 2006, consistent compared to 2005, which amounted to 1.0%, and was 0.8% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. The decrease in selling expenses as a percentage of our net revenues for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 compared to the predecessor period in 2006 was primarily due to our increased economies of scale and our increased annualized revenue base which outpaced the growth of selling expenses and both of which made it possible for us to reduce our selling expenses as a percentage of net revenues, while increasing our annualized selling expenses in absolute dollar amount.

  •  General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues was 5.3% in 2005, 2.8% for the predecessor period in 2006 and 2.9% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. The decrease in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues from 2005 to the predecessor period in 2006 was primarily due to our increased economies of scale and our increased annualized revenue base in the predecessor period in 2006. The increase in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of our net revenues from the predecessor period in 2006 to the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 was primarily due to increased general and administrative expenses as we hired additional personnel and incurred additional professional expenses to support our operations in the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006.
 
  •  Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses as a percentage of net revenues for the predecessor period in 2006, which amounted to 0.4%, was consistent compared to 2005, which was 0.5%. Research and development expenses as a percentage of net revenue increased to 2.6% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, primarily due to the increase in research and development activities in such period related to improving ingots and wafers production process and output efficiency.
      Income from Operations. Income from operations was RMB 83.7 million in 2005, RMB 234.6 million (US$30.1 million) for the predecessor period in 2006 and RMB 132.3 million (US$16.9 million) for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. As a result of the cumulative effect of the above factors, the operating profit margin was 26.5% for the predecessor period in 2006 and 17.5% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. The operating profit margin amounted to 23.1% in 2005.
      Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense was RMB 5.0 million in 2005, RMB 21.9 million (US$2.8 million) for the predecessor period in 2006, which consisted primarily of interest expenses incurred for bank borrowings. Net interest expense was RMB 25.2 million (US$3.2 million) for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, which consisted primarily of interest expense incurred for the mandatory convertible bonds and the mandatory redeemable bonds issued on November 13, 2006, and to a lesser extent from interest expenses incurred for bank borrowings.
      Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was RMB 12.7 million in 2005, RMB 22.5 million (US$2.9 million) for the predecessor period in 2006 and RMB 23.0 million (US$2.9 million) for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. The effective tax rate was 10.8% for the predecessor period but increased to 23.4% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. As a “high and new technology enterprise,” our predecessor, Tianwei Yingli, was entitled to a preferential enterprise income tax rate of 15% for the predecessor period in 2006. The effective tax rate for the predecessor period was lower than the enterprise income tax rate primarily due to a tax credit of RMB 10.6 million from the purchase by Tianwei Yingli of China-made equipment. For the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, our preferential enterprise income tax rate was 18% as a result of a change in our tax status as a Sino-foreign equity joint venture as of September 5, 2006. The effective tax rate for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 of 23.4% was higher than the enterprise income tax rate of 18.0% during the same period. During the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, we recognized tax expenses of RMB 4.0 million (US$0.5 million) as a result of an adjustment to our deferred tax assets and liabilities due to a change in our tax status. In addition, during the same period, Yingli Green Energy was incorporated in the Cayman Islands to hold the equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Under current tax laws, Yingli Green Energy is not subject to income tax. As a result, our effective tax rate was negatively impacted by expenses incurred by Yingli Green Energy, which were not tax deductible. Such increase in our effective tax rate was partly offset by RMB 1.8 million (US$0.2 million) tax credits in connection with certain research and development activities for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006.
      Minority Interest. Minority interest was RMB (0.1) million (US$(9,777)) for the predecessor period in 2006 and was RMB 45.3 million (US$5.8 million) for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. Minority interest for the predecessor period in 2006 represents income attributable to the equity interest of Chengdu Yingli, a subsidiary of Tianwei Yingli, not held by Yingli Green Energy Holding

95


Table of Contents

Company Limited. In addition to the minority interest in Chengdu Yingli, minority interest for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 also included minority interest attributable to the equity interest of Tianwei Yingli not held by us. Minority interest was RMB (0.04) million in 2005.
      Net Income. Net income was RMB 66.0 million in 2005, RMB 186.2 million (US$23.9 million) for the predecessor period in 2006 and RMB 30.0 million (US$3.8 million) for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006. Net income for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006 excluded minority interest of RMB 45.3 million (US$5.8 million), primarily attributable to the equity interest of Tianwei Yingli not held by us since one of the shareholders of Tianwei Yingli is not a shareholder of us and therefore the related net income was presented as minority interest. As a result of the cumulative effect of the above factors, net profit margin amounted to 18.2% in 2005, 21.1% for the predecessor period in 2006 and 4.0% for the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006.
Year ended December 31, 2006 on a combined basis compared to year ended December 31, 2005
      Net Revenues. Total net revenues increased significantly from RMB 361.8 million in 2005 to RMB 1,638.8 million (US$210.0 million) in 2006, due primarily to a significant increase in the sales of PV modules.
      Net revenues from sales of PV modules increased significantly from RMB 334.0 million in 2005 to RMB 1,530.6 million (US$196.1 million) in 2006, due primarily to a significant increase in the volume of PV modules sold from 11.9 megawatts in 2005 to 51.3 megawatts in 2006, which resulted mainly from a significant increase in our capacity and market demand for our PV modules, especially in Germany and other European markets. Our sales in Europe significantly increased from RMB 296.0 million, or 81.2% of our total revenues, in 2005 to RMB 1,334.2 million (US$171.0 million), or 80.9% of our total revenues, in 2006, due to the significant increase in market demand in Europe, particularly in Germany, following the adoption of several government incentives for PV products in Europe. Our sales in China increased from RMB 57.3 million in 2005 to RMB 81.0 million (US$10.4 million) in 2006, but as a percentage of our total revenues, our sales in China decreased from 15.7% in 2005 to 4.9% in 2006, primarily due to the rapid expansion of the European market for PV products and the management’s continued focus on the international market. The increase in net revenues from sales of PV modules was, to a lesser extent, also attributable to an increase in the average selling price per watt of our PV modules from US$3.49 in 2005 to US$3.82 in 2006, which reflected increased market demand for PV modules.
      Net revenues from sales of PV systems increased by 88.2% from RMB 8.1 million in 2005 to RMB 15.2 million (US$2.0 million) in 2006, due primarily to our sale and delivery of a PV system in connection with a large PV system project in China.
      Other revenues increased significantly from RMB 19.7 million in 2005 to RMB 93.0 million (US$11.9 million) in 2006, primarily due to an increase in occasional sales of raw materials, which we expect will not be significant in the future.
      Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased significantly from RMB 253.6 million in 2005 to RMB 1,186.5 million (US$152.0 million) in 2006. The increase in cost was a result of the significant increase in the volume of PV modules we sold and, to a lesser extent, by an increase in unit costs of polysilicon and increased depreciation expense. The average cost of polysilicon per kilogram we purchased increased by 185.5% from 2005 to 2006 due to industry-wide supply shortages and the rising market price of polysilicon. The effect of the increase in the unit cost for polysilicon was partially offset by a decrease in silicon usage per watt because we produced thinner wafers for use into our PV products, manufactured PV cells with higher conversion efficiencies and used a higher proportion of inexpensive polysilicon scraps in 2006 compared to 2005. Depreciation expense increased primarily as a result of the build-up of new machinery required for our manufacturing capacity expansion.
      Cost of PV modules sales increased significantly from RMB 233.2 million in 2005 to RMB 1,100.4 million (US$141.0 million) in 2006, primarily due to an increase in costs associated with increased net revenues from sales of PV modules, an increase in the price of polysilicon, and the increased

96


Table of Contents

use of toll manufacturing for PV cells. As a result, cost of PV modules sales as a percentage of net revenues from PV modules also increased from 69.8% in 2005 to 71.9% in 2006.
      Cost of PV systems sales increased by 73.8% from RMB 6.3 million in 2005 to RMB 10.9 million (US$1.4 million) in 2006, due primarily to the increased sales of PV systems from involvement with a large project in China. Cost of PV systems sales as a percentage of net revenues from sales of PV systems decreased from 77.8% in 2005 to 71.8% in 2006, primarily due to the diversification of our system sales from mostly installation services in 2005 to more PV system integration services in 2006, which involves not only design and installation, but also the resale of peripheral parts and components for the integrated PV systems procured from third parties, a service that carries a lower margin than installation services.
      Cost of other revenues increased from RMB 14.1 million in 2005 to RMB 75.2 million (US$9.6 million) in 2006, due primarily to the increase in other revenues. Cost of other revenues as a percentage of other revenues increased from 71.7% in 2005 to 80.9% in 2006, due primarily to a narrowing margin in sales of raw materials, such as polysilicon scraps not used by us, which we do not expect to be significant in the future.
      Gross Profit. Gross profit increased significantly from RMB 108.2 million in 2005 to RMB 452.3 million (US$58.0 million) in 2006. Our gross profit margin decreased from 29.9% in 2005 to 27.6% in 2006, primarily as a result of the rising cost of polysilicon, which outpaced the rising sales price of PV modules, and the increased use of toll manufacturing arrangement for PV cell production.
      Operating Expenses. Operating expenses increased significantly from RMB 24.5 million in 2005 to RMB 85.4 million (US$10.9 million) in 2006, primarily due to increases in selling expenses and general and administrative expenses relating to our expanded sales and operations. Operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues decreased from 6.8% in 2005 to 5.2% in 2006, reflecting increased economies of scale in our operations following the expansion of our production capacity.
  •  Selling Expenses. Selling expenses increased significantly from RMB 3.5 million in 2005 to RMB 15.5 million (US$2.0 million) in 2006, due primarily to increased revenues over the same period. Selling expenses as a percentage of net revenues remained largely stable from 1.0% in 2005 to 0.9% in 2006.
 
  •  General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by 143.9% from RMB 19.2 million in 2005 to RMB 46.8 million (US$6.0 million) in 2006, due primarily to an increase in the number of administrative staff and the hiring of senior executive officers from 2005 to 2006 related to the expansion of our operations and their travel and other expenses, advisory fees related to financing arrangements and miscellaneous bank charges related to increased financing activities. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total net revenues decreased from 5.3% in 2005 to 2.9% in 2006, primarily due to increased economies of scale in our operations following the expansion of our production capacity.
 
  •  Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses significantly increased from RMB 1.8 million in 2005 to RMB 23.1 million (US$3.0 million) in 2006, primarily due to the increased level of research and development activities relating to PV cell production and the calibration of the optimal silicon mix.
      Income from Operations. As a result of the foregoing, our income from operations significantly increased from RMB 83.7 million in 2005 to RMB 366.9 million (US$47.0 million) in 2006. Our operating profit margin slightly decreased from 23.1% in 2005 to 22.4% in 2006, primarily due to an increase in the price of polysilicon which outpaced the cost savings generated by an increased economy of scale from the expansion of our operations and technological improvements in our manufacturing processes.
      Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense significantly increased from RMB 5.0 million in 2005 to RMB 47.1 million (US$6.0 million) in 2006 due primarily to an increase in average bank borrowings, the interest in the aggregate amount of RMB 6.2 million (US$0.8 million) on our mandatory convertible bonds and mandatory redeemable bonds issued on November 13, 2006, and, to a lesser extent, to the increase in the

97


Table of Contents

weighted average interest rate for our short-term borrowings, which was 5.42% as of December 31, 2005 compared to 5.99% as of December 31, 2006.
      Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense significantly increased from RMB 12.7 million in 2005 to RMB 45.5 million (US$5.8 million) in 2006, due to a significant increase in taxable income. As a “high and new technology enterprise,” Tianwei Yingli was entitled to a preferential enterprise income tax rate of 15% in 2005 and for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2007. For the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, our preferential enterprise income tax rate was 18% as a result of a change in our tax status as a Sino-foreign equity joint venture as of August 7, 2006 (date of inception). Our effective tax rate was 16.2% and 14.8% in 2005 and 2006, respectively. In 2005, our effective tax rate was higher than the statutory preferential tax rate of 15% primarily due to certain salary and benefit expenses that were non-deductible for PRC income tax purposes. In 2006, our effective tax rate was lower than the statutory preferential tax rate of 18% primarily due to a tax refund in the amount of RMB 10.6 million (US$1.4 million) from the purchase by Tianwei Yingli of China-made equipment and the impact from the application of the preferential tax rate of 15% for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006, which was partially offset by non-tax deductible expenses incurred by Yingli Green Energy.
      Minority Interest. Our results for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006 are presented based on our ownership interest in Tianwei Yingli, which ranged from 51% to 62.13%. Because we did not own 100% of the equity interest in Tianwei Yingli during the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, the income attributable to the ownership interest not held by us is shown as “minority interest” in our consolidated statement of income for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006.
Year Ended December 31, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2004
      Net Revenues. Total net revenues increased significantly from RMB 120.5 million in 2004 to RMB 361.8 million in 2005, due primarily to a significant increase in the sales of PV modules.
      Net revenues from sales of PV modules increased significantly from RMB 108.8 million in 2004 to RMB 334.0 million in 2005, due primarily to a significant increase in the volume of PV modules sold from 4.7 megawatts in 2004 to 11.9 megawatts in 2005, which resulted mainly from a significant increase in our capacity and market demand for our PV modules, especially in Germany and other European markets. Our sales in Europe increased significantly from RMB 86.9 million in 2004 to RMB 296.0 million in 2005 primarily due to an increased recognition of our brand and acceptance of our products. The increase in net revenues from sales of PV modules was, to a lesser extent, also attributable to an increase in the average selling price per watt of our PV modules from US$2.83 per watt in 2004 and to US$3.49 per watt in 2005, following the general rise in market demand for PV modules.
      Net revenues from sales of PV systems decreased by 8.0% from RMB 8.8 million in 2004 to RMB 8.1 million in 2005, due primarily to our involvement with a fewer number of PV system projects in China and growing competition for sales of small stand-alone PV system applications in China.
      Other revenues increased significantly from RMB 2.9 million in 2004 to RMB 19.7 million in 2005, due primarily to the larger volume of polysilicon scraps sold and the commencement of a transaction with a PRC trading company, for which we processed PV cells into PV modules. We entered into this contract in order to better utilize our PV module manufacturing capacity, which at the time was in excess of our capacity for PV cells in 2005. We currently have no plan to enter into similar processing transactions once our manufacturing capacities for ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules reach parity.
      Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased significantly from RMB 95.3 million in 2004 to RMB 253.6 million in 2005. The increase in cost of revenues was due primarily to the significant growth of our sale of PV modules and the corresponding increase in our expenditures on polysilicon, an increased use of toll manufacturing and direct labor and overhead costs. The average cost of polysilicon feedstock we

98


Table of Contents

purchased increased by 106.5% from 2004 to 2005. We also experienced an increase in depreciation expenses due primarily to installation of new machinery required for our manufacturing capacity expansion.
      Cost of PV modules sales increased by 169.6% from RMB 86.5 million in 2004 to RMB 233.2 million in 2005, due primarily to an increase in costs associated with increased net revenues from sales of PV modules and a substantial increase in the price of polysilicon. Cost of PV modules as a percentage of net revenues from sales of PV modules decreased from 79.5% in 2004 to 69.8% in 2005, due primarily to greater economies of scale, improvement in process technologies, and, to a less extent, the increase in the average selling price of PV modules in 2005.
      Cost of PV systems sales decreased by 5.1% from RMB 6.6 million in 2004 to RMB 6.3 million in 2005, due primarily to the decrease in net revenues from sales of PV systems over the same period. Cost of PV systems sales as a percentage of net revenues from sales of PV systems increased from 75.4% in 2004 to 77.8% in 2005, primarily due to growing price competition for stand-alone PV system applications and the increase in the price of polysilicon.
      Cost of other revenues significantly increased from RMB 2.2 million in 2004 to RMB 14.1 million in 2005, due primarily to the significant increase in sales of raw materials and the commencement of processing services in 2005 under a processing contract with a PRC trading company. Cost of other revenues as a percentage of other revenues decreased from 74.6% in 2004 to 71.7% in 2005, due primarily to the lower quality of polysilicon scraps purchased in 2005 compared to 2004 and the increase in the processing services in 2005, which had a higher profit margin than the sale of raw materials, which constituted the primary source of other revenues in 2004.
      Gross Profit. Gross profit significantly increased from RMB 25.2 million in 2004 to RMB 108.2 million in 2005, and the gross profit margin increased from 20.9% in 2004 to 29.9% in 2005, primarily due to a significant increase in our manufacturing capacity for ingots and wafers in 2005, which enabled us to reduce sourcing cost and achieve greater economies of scale in our manufacturing processes and improvement in manufacturing technologies.
      Operating Expenses. Operating expenses increased significantly from RMB 11.4 million in 2004 to RMB 24.5 million in 2005, due primarily to a significant increase in general and administrative expenses. Operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues decreased from 9.5% in 2004 to 6.8% in 2005.
  •  Selling expenses. Selling expenses increased significantly from RMB 1.0 million in 2004 to RMB 3.5 million in 2005, due primarily to increased advertising and other sales costs associated with the increased sales of PV modules. Selling expenses as a percentage of net revenues remained largely stable at 0.9% in 2004 and 1.0% in 2005.
 
  •  General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by significantly from RMB 7.5 million in 2004 to RMB 19.2 million in 2005, due primarily to increased salaries associated with an 80.3% increase in administrative staff related to our expanded operations. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total net revenues decreased from 6.2% in 2004 to 5.3% in 2005, primarily due to greater economies of scale in our operations following the expansion of our production capacity.
 
  •  Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses decreased by 39.3% from RMB 3.0 million in 2004 to RMB 1.8 million in 2005, primarily due to the increase in government grants from the PRC government, which are recorded as a reduction to research and development expenses and amounted to RMB 0.2 million and RMB 1.5 million in 2004 and 2005, respectively. Without taking into account such reductions, research and development expenses remained relatively stable from RMB 3.2 million in 2004 to RMB 3.3 million in 2005.
      Income from operations. Our income from operations significantly increased from RMB 13.7 million in 2004 to RMB 83.7 million in 2005. Our operating profit margin increased from 11.4% in 2004 to 23.1% in 2005, primarily due to the cost savings generated by an increased economy of scale from the rapid expansion of our operations and technological improvements in our manufacturing processes.

      Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense decreased by 20.9% from RMB 6.3 million in 2004 to RMB 5.0 million in 2005, due primarily to a decrease in capitalization of interest expense following the completion of construction in 2005 and a decrease in the weighted average interest rate of our short-term bank borrowings from 5.66% as of December 31, 2004 to 5.42% as of December 31, 2005.
      Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense significantly increased from RMB 1.2 million in 2004 to RMB 12.7 million in 2005, due primarily to a significant increase in taxable income as a result of higher profitability in 2005 compared to 2004. As a “high and new technology enterprise,” we were entitled to a preferential enterprise income tax rate of 15% in 2004 and 2005. The effective tax rate for us was 16.9% in 2004 and 16.2% in 2005, and was higher than the preferential tax rate of 15% primarily due to certain salary and benefit expenses that were non-deductible for PRC income tax purposes.
      Net Income. Net income significantly increased from RMB 6.1 million in 2004 to RMB 66.0 million in 2005, and the net profit margin increased from 5.1% in 2004 to 18.2% in 2005.
Selected Quarterly Results of Operations
      The following table sets forth the consolidated selected quarterly results of operations of Tianwei Yingli, our predecessor, and Yingli Green Energy for the quarterly period from the three months ended March 31, 2005 to the three months ended December 31, 2006. The quarterly financial data presented below are derived from unaudited financial statements. For periods prior to September 5, 2006, the following discussion and analysis is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Tianwei Yingli and our view of its business and operations, and for periods including and subsequent to August 7, 2006 (date of inception), the following discussion and analysis is based on the consolidated financial statements of Yingli Green Energy. In our discussion of the results of operations for the third quarter of 2006, representing the period from July 1, 2006 through September 30, 2006, we refer to certain line items in the statement of income as “combined” for comparative purposes. The combined amounts represent the addition of the amounts for certain income statement line items of Tianwei Yingli, our predecessor, for the period from July 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and the amounts for the corresponding income statement line items of us, for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through September 30, 2006. The combined financial data for the third quarter of 2006 do not comply with U.S. GAAP. We are including these combined amounts to supplementally provide information which we believe will be helpful to gaining a better understanding of our quarterly results of operations and improve the comparative analysis against the prior quarters, each of which included a full calendar quarter. These combined amounts do not purport to represent what our quarterly results of operations would have been in such periods if Yingli Group transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us on July 1, 2006. You should read the following table in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. We have prepared the unaudited consolidated financial information includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that we consider necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and operating results for the quarters presented.

Note:
(1)  Represents the addition of the amounts for the specified financial statement line items of Tianwei Yingli, our predecessor, for the period from July 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and the amounts for the corresponding line items of Yingli Green Energy, for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through September 30, 2006. The presentation of such combined financial data for the three months ended September 30, 2006 is not in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through September 4, 2006, during which the financial statements of the predecessor and those of Yingli Green Energy overlap, Yingli Green Energy did not engage in any business or operations.
     Our quarterly total net revenues has rapidly grown from the first quarter of 2005 as recorded by our predecessor to the last quarter of 2006, primarily due to the increase of sales of PV modules resulting from our capacity expansion, output increase and the increase in the average selling price of PV modules over the relevant periods. Our net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2006 increased significantly from that in the fourth quarter of 2005 as recorded by our predecessor, primarily due to the increase of sales of PV modules resulting from our capacity expansion and the increase in the average selling price of PV modules, principally due to the continued rise in demand for PV installations in 2006. Our net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2006 decreased slightly from that in the third quarter of 2006 on a combined basis, primarily due to a decline in the average selling price of PV modules, resulting principally from intensified price competition among PV module manufacturers since the fourth quarter of 2006, which offset the slight increase of sales of PV modules and PV systems. Our net revenue in the first quarter of 2007 increased significantly from that in the first quarter of 2006 as recorded by our predecessor, primarily due to the increase of sales of PV modules and the average selling price of PV modules, which principally resulted from the continued rise in demand for PV installations in 2006, but decreased from the fourth quarter of 2006, primarily due to a seasonal decrease in the demand of PV modules in our key markets, such as Germany and Spain.
      Our gross margin in the fourth quarter of 2005 (22.0%) and the first quarter of 2006 (23.5%) were comparatively low due to the purchase for our PV module production of a limited amount of PV cells from third-party toll manufacturers, the cost of which was significantly higher than the PV cells produced by us in-

house. Our gross margin in the second quarter of 2006 (35.7%) was high compared to other quarters in 2006 because we significantly reduced the use of the toll manufacturing arrangement following the commencement of the operations of our newly installed cell production facilities in such quarter. Our gross margin in the fourth quarter of 2006, which was 23.0%, and the first quarter of 2007, which was 20.9%, were comparatively low, primarily due to a continued increase in the cost of silicon raw materials, which offset the decrease in silicon raw materials used per watt in our PV module production as the result of thinner silicon wafers we were able to produce and higher conversion efficiencies of PV cells and improved operation efficiencies we were able to achieve.
      Our operating expenses, which include selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses, as a percentage of net revenue declined for the six quarters ended June 30, 2006, primarily as a result of our improved economies of scale. Our operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue increased between the third quarter of 2006 on a combined basis and the first quarter of 2007, primarily due to our increased marketing and sales initiatives in Spain, Italy and the United States, our continuous investment in research and development, our acquisition of additional equity interest in Tianwei Yingli in the fourth quarter of 2006 which resulted in additional intangible assets and higher amortization cost, and our hiring of new financial and administrative staff in preparation for this offering. As a result, the amortization of intangible assets increased from RMB 1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2006 to RMB 7.4 million in the first quarter of 2007, sales commission increased from nil in the fourth quarter of 2006 to RMB 7.6 million in the first quarter of 2007 as a result of sales commission paid to a sales agent in Spain for the execution of a sales contract, and the share-based compensation cost increased from RMB 0.06 million in the fourth quarter of 2006 to RMB 4.9 million in the first quarter of 2007. We expect to continue to pay sales commission to our customer in Spain during the life of such sales contract. While we generally do not pay sales commission in connection with entering into a sales contract, we may pay sales commissions to other sales agents in the future.
      Our income from operations has been growing from quarter to quarter over the seven quarters ended September 30, 2006 largely due to our operational improvements. Our income from operations in the fourth quarter of 2006 increased significantly from that in the fourth quarter of 2005 as recorded by our predecessor, primarily due to the significantly higher net revenue in this quarter and an increase in gross margin, but decreased from that in the third quarter of 2006 on a combined basis, primarily due to an increase in the cost of silicon raw material and inventory write-down to net realizable value made during the fourth quarter of 2006. Our income from operations in the first quarter of 2007 increased from that in the first quarter of 2006 as recorded by our predecessor, primarily due to the significantly higher net revenue, which offset the decrease in gross margin and the increase in operating expenses, but decreased from that in the fourth quarter of 2006, primarily due to the decrease in gross margin and the increase in operating expenses. Our tax expenses significantly decreased in the first quarter of 2007 compared to previous quarters principally due to the commencement of a tax holiday on January 1, 2007.
      Our operating results for these quarters are not necessarily indicative of results of any future quarter. See “Risk Factors — Our results of operations are difficult to predict, and if we do not meet the market expectation, the price of our ADS will likely decline.”
Liquidity and Capital Resources
      In our discussion of the liquidity and capital resources for the year ended December 31, 2006, we refer to certain line items on the statements of cash flows as “combined” for comparative purposes. These combined amounts represent the addition of the amounts for certain line items on the statements of cash flows of Tianwei Yingli, our predecessor, for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006, and the amounts for the corresponding line items on the statements of cash flows of us, for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006. For the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through September 4, 2006, during which the financial statements of the predecessor and those of Yingli Green Energy overlap, Yingli Green Energy did not engage in any business or operations. The combined financial data for the year ended December 31, 2006 do not comply with U.S. GAAP. We are including these combined amounts to supplementally provide information which we believe will be helpful to

gaining a better understanding of our cash flows and improve the comparative analysis against the prior periods, each of which included a full fiscal year. These combined amounts do not purport to represent what our cash flows would have been in such periods if Yingli Group had transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us on January 1, 2006.
Cash Flows and Working Capital
      Prior to September 2006, we have relied principally on borrowings from financial institutions and related parties, to fund our operations and our capacity expansion. Substantially all such borrowings from financial institutions were guaranteed or entrusted by related parties. Under PRC laws, a company that is not a financial institution is not permitted to extend loans directly to another company. Therefore, a financial institution, such as a bank, typically becomes involved in loan arrangements between companies that are not financial institutions, by acting as an intermediary such that the financial institution receives the funds from the lending company and disburses the received funds to the borrowing company. Arranging a loan in this manner is referred to as “entrusting” a loan. In contrast, “guaranteeing” a loan involves a company’s guaranteeing the repayment of a loan made by another company to the lender of such loan.
      From August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through January 13, 2007, in order to obtain additional sources of financing required for the expansion of our operation and production capacities in response to growing market demand for our PV products, we obtained equity and equity-linked financing from third parties in an aggregate amount of US$220 million consisting of the following: US$17 million from the issuance of our Series A preferred shares, US$38 million from the issuance of the mandatory redeemable bonds, payable to Yingli Power US$47 million from the issuance of the mandatory convertible bonds payable to Yingli Power and US$118 million from the issuance of our Series B preferred shares.
      As of December 31, 2004 and 2005, we had a working capital deficit, defined as current liabilities less current assets, of RMB 70.1 million and RMB 231.1 million, respectively, while as of December 31, 2006, we had a working capital surplus (defined as current assets less current liabilities) of RMB 1,057.6 million (US$135.5 million). We may have a working capital deficit in the future. The working capital deficit as of December 31, 2004 and 2005 was primarily due to our historical reliance on the proceeds of short-term loan facilities to meet our significant operating cash requirements and our commitments and significant capital expenditures in expanding our production capacities. The working capital surplus as of December 31, 2006 was primarily due to proceeds from the issuances of our equity and debt securities, which was partially offset by purchases of property, plant and equipment. Our ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time largely depends on the ability of our management to successfully execute our business plan (including increasing sales while decreasing operating costs and expenses) and, if required, the ability to obtain additional funds, either from our related parties or from the issuance of additional equity or debt securities. Our management believes the execution of our business plan will enable us to fund our operational cash flow needs and meet our commitments and current liabilities as and when they come due for a reasonable period of time.
      The primary sources of our financing have been from banks, our equity interest holders, other related parties and other third parties, private placements of our debt and equity securities. As of December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, we had RMB 21.7 million, RMB 14.9 million and RMB 78.5 million (US$10.1 million), respectively, in cash, had RMB 0.7 million, RMB 14.9 million and RMB 321.8 million (US$41.2 million), respectively, in restricted cash, and RMB 92.0 million, RMB 346.8 million, RMB 267.3 million (US$34.2 million), respectively, in outstanding short-term borrowings and RMB 8.1 million, RMB 100.4 million and RMB 31.8 million (US$4.1 million), respectively, in outstanding borrowings from related-parties. We did not have any long-term borrowings as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, but have outstanding mandatory redeemable bonds payable to Yingli Power of RMB 293.1 million (US$37.6 million) and outstanding mandatory convertible bonds payable to Yingli Power of RMB 362.5 million (US$46.5 million), each of which carries a term of more than one year as of December 31, 2006.
      Our cash consists of cash on hand, cash in bank accounts and interest bearing savings accounts. Our restricted cash consists of bank deposits for securing letters of credit and letters of guarantee granted to us

103


Table of Contents

and a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds.
      Our short-term borrowings from banks outstanding as of December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006 were RMB 92.0 million, RMB 279.0 million and RMB 255.3 million (US$32.7 million), respectively, and bore a weighted average interest rate of 5.66%, 5.42% and 5.99%, respectively. Our short-term borrowings from banks, which are generally guaranteed or entrusted by Tianwei Baobian, have a term of less than one year, expire at various times throughout the year. We have traditionally negotiated renewal of certain of these borrowings shortly before they mature.
      All other borrowings from third parties (other than banks), which amounted to nil, RMB 67.7 million and RMB 12.0 million (US$1.5 million), respectively, as of December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, are interest-free except for a loan in the principal amount of RMB 12.0 million (US$1.5 million) from a government authority at an interest rate of 7.67% per annum as of December 31, 2006. Borrowings from non-financial institution third parties are unsecured, have no definite terms of repayment and are generally arranged personally by our founder, Mr. Liansheng Miao.
      We also have borrowings from Tianwei Baobian, the holder of the minority equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, the outstanding amount of which was RMB 8.0 million, RMB 100.3 million and nil as of December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Our borrowings from Tianwei Baobian are generally unsecured, interest-free and have no fixed term of repayment. Historically, Tianwei Yingli, as Tianwei Baobian’s subsidiary, was able to obtain entrusted borrowings from Tianwei Baobian. As the result of the decrease of Tianwei Baobian’s interest in Tianwei Yingli from a controlling 51% to a non-controlling 49% and Tianwei Yingli’s becoming our consolidating subsidiary following the completion of the restructuring, we may not be able to obtain such borrowings from Tianwei Baobian or obtain loans that are guaranteed by Tianwei Baobian in the future or may have to seek borrowings or guarantees from other sources, which may increase our cost of borrowings in the future. This is primarily the result of PRC laws and regulations that require the approval of Tianwei Baobian’s shareholders or impose other restrictions upon Tianwei Baobian if Tianwei Baobian, as a company whose shares are listed in the domestic stock market in the PRC, intends to extend loans or provide guarantees to its non-consolidated affiliates, such as Tianwei Yingli.
      We have historically been able repay our borrowings mostly from refinancing or new or additional borrowings from our shareholders, related parties and other third parties. We may also seek additional debt or equity financing or to use some of the proceeds from this offering to repay the remaining portion of our borrowings. As we ramp up our current and planned operations in order to complete our expansion projects, we expect to generate cash from our expanded operations to repay a portion of our borrowings. If we are unable to obtain alternative funding or generate cash from our operations as required, our business and prospects may suffer. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Us and the PV Industry — We have significant outstanding short-term borrowings, and we may not be able to obtain extensions when they mature.”
      We also received a substantial amount of funds generated by the private placements of our equity and debt securities, including Series A preferred shares, Series B preferred shares, mandatory redeemable bonds payable to Yingli Power and mandatory convertible bonds payable to Yingli Power issued during the period from September 2006 to January 2007.
      For a more detailed description of these private placement transactions, see “Restructuring — Private Equity Investments and Other Financings Following the Restructuring.”
      We had one obligation in the aggregate amount of RMB 12 million (US$1.5 million) that were overdue as of December 31, 2006, consisting of a repayment obligation to a provincial government authority in the PRC in the amount of RMB 12 million. We plan to repay these obligations promptly upon demand.
      We have significant working capital commitments because suppliers of high purity polysilicon and polysilicon scraps require us to make prepayments in advance of shipment. Accordingly, our advances or prepayments to suppliers increased significantly from RMB 12.6 million, to RMB 123.5 million and to RMB 361.1 million (US$46.3 million), as of December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. In addition, in anticipation of sharp rises in the price of polysilicon arising from the industry-wide shortage of polysilicon

104


Table of Contents

and increasing market demand for our PV modules, we spent significant working capital to purchase polysilicon in 2005 and 2006. As a result, our inventories increased significantly from RMB 17.5 million, to RMB 106.6 million and to RMB 811.7 million (US$104.0 million), as of December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. We also make prepayments for equipment purchases. Our prepayments for equipment purchases amounted to RMB18.3 million, RMB58.6 million and RMB126.8 million (US$16.3 million) as of December 31, 2004, 2005, and 2006, respectively.

Operating Activities
      Net cash used in operating activities was RMB 126.4 million in 2005 and RMB 754.7 million (US$96.7 million) in 2006, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of RMB 17.2 million in 2004. Net cash was used in operating activities in 2006 primarily because payments for inventory and prepayments to suppliers more than offset an increase in cash advances received from customers and cash received from customers for sales of products.
      Net cash was also used in operating activities in 2005 primarily because payments for inventories and prepayments to suppliers more than offset the increase in cash advances received from customers and cash provided by sales of products. Net cash was provided by operating activities in 2004 primarily because cash received from customers for sales of products more than offset payments for inventories and prepayments to suppliers.

Investing Activities
      Net cash used in investing activities increased from RMB 29.2 million in 2004 to RMB 227.4 million in 2005 to RMB 605.3 million (US$77.6 million) in 2006, due primarily to continued capacity expansion in our manufacturing facilities in Baoding and the restricted cash placed in escrow for a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the mandatory redeemable bonds payable to Yingli Power, the mandatory convertible bonds payable to Yingli Power and the Series B preferred shares in 2006.
Financing Activities
      Net cash provided by financing activities significantly increased from RMB 29.0 million in 2004 to RMB 346.9 million in 2005 primarily as a result of borrowings from financial institutions and related parties. Net cash provided by financing activities further increased to RMB 1,421.3 million (US$182.1 million) in 2006, due primarily to the private placements of Series A preferred shares, the mandatory redeemable bonds, the mandatory convertible bonds, Series B preferred shares and borrowings from or guaranteed or entrusted by related parties
      The net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Series A preferred shares, the Series B preferred shares, the mandatory redeemable bonds payable to Yingli Power and the mandatory convertible bonds payable to Yingli Power were approximately RMB 134.2 million (US$17.2 million), RMB 887.5 million (US$113.7 million), RMB 292.0 million (US$37.4 million) and RMB 361.1 million (US$46.3 million ), respectively, or approximately RMB 1,674.8 million (US$214.6 million) in the aggregate. Except for approximately RMB 35.1 million (US$4.5 million) from the issuance and sale of the Series B preferred shares to two investors in January 2007, the proceeds from these private placements were received in 2006. The proceeds from these private placements, except for RMB 35.2 million (US$4.5 million) which was reserved for payment of interest under the mandatory redeemable bonds payable to Yingli Power and the mandatory convertible bonds payable to Yingli Power and RMB 134.6 million (US$17.2 million) which was used by Yingli Green Energy to acquire the 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli from Yingli Group, were, or will be, used to increase the percentage of our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Tianwei Yingli has used the proceeds received from us for the expansion of PV manufacturing facilities and general corporate purposes. For further description of private placements of Series A preferred shares, Series B preferred shares, the mandatory redeemable bonds payable to Yingli Power and the mandatory convertible bonds payable to Yingli Power, see “Restructuring — Private Equity Investments and Other Financings Following the Restructuring.”
      We believe that our current cash, bank borrowings and proceeds from this offering will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs, including cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, at least until the end of 2007. We plan to meet our cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for years following 2007 primarily through cash generated from operations, and to the extent required, through borrowings from financial institutions and/or issuances of equity and debt securities. We may, however, require additional cash due to changing business conditions or other future developments. If our existing cash is insufficient to meet our requirements, we may seek to borrow from financial institutions or our equity interest holders or seek additional equity contributions. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in the amounts we need or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. The incurrence of debt would divert cash for working capital and capital expenditures to service debt obligations and could result in operating and financial covenants that restrict our operations and Tianwei Yingli’s ability to pay dividends to us, and in turn, our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders. If we are unable to obtain additional equity contribution or debt financing as required, our business operations and prospects may suffer.
Capital Expenditures
      We had capital expenditures of RMB 28.7 million, RMB 226.5 million and RMB 254.8 million (US$32.7 million) in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Our capital expenditures were used primarily to build manufacturing facilities for our PV products.

106


Table of Contents

      We estimate that we will make substantial capital expenditures in 2007 and 2008 in the amounts of approximately RMB 1,000 million and RMB 1,250 million, respectively, which will be used primarily to build manufacturing facilities for our PV products. We currently plan to increase our annual manufacturing capacity of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules to 200 megawatts each during the first half of 2007 and to 400 megawatts each by the end of 2008. As of December 31, 2006, we committed an aggregate of RMB 513.3 million (US$65.8 million) to purchase property, plant and equipment for such expansion. We plan to fund these capital expenditures substantially with proceeds from this offering, which we will inject into Tianwei Yingli in the form of equity contributions or shareholder loans, as well as additional borrowings from third parties and from related parties, including banks, and, if any, cash from operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements
      We have not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our equity interests and classified as owners’ equity, or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or that engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
      Under the joint venture contract, Tianwei Baobian has a right to subscribe for a number of ordinary shares newly issued by us to be determined by a pre-agreed formula set forth in the joint venture contract. In connection with the preferred equity financing, we granted to an affiliate of the Series A preferred shareholder and 11 Series B preferred shareholders warrants to purchase our ordinary shares newly issued by us. See “Restructuring.”
Inflation
      Since our inception, inflation in China has not materially affected our results of operations. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the change of consumer price index in China was 3.9%, 1.8% and 1.5% in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosure about Market Risks
Foreign Exchange Risk
      Most of our sales are currently denominated in U.S. dollars and Euros, and to a lesser extent, in Renminbi, while a substantial portion of our costs and expenses is denominated in U.S. dollars, Renminbi, Japanese Yen and Euros. Under relevant PRC regulations, we are required to convert the foreign currencies we receive into Renminbi within specified time periods and prior to disbursement.
      Fluctuations in currency exchange rates could have a significant effect on our financial stability due to a mismatch among various foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities. Fluctuations in exchange rates, particularly among the U.S. dollar, Euro and Renminbi, affect our net profit margins and would result in foreign currency exchange gains and losses on our foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. Our exposure to foreign exchange risk primarily relates to foreign currency exchange gains or losses resulting from timing differences between the signing of sales contracts or raw material supply contracts and the receipt of payment and the settlement or disbursement relating to these contracts.
      As of December 31, 2006, we held an equivalent of RMB 281.9 million (US$36.1 million) in accounts receivable, of which an equivalent of RMB 272.3 million (US$34.9 million) were denominated in U.S. dollars. As the substantial majority of our sales of our products and purchases of our raw materials are denominated in U.S. dollars, any significant fluctuations in the exchange rates between the Renminbi and the U.S. dollar could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Moreover, we had significant monetary assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars as of December 31, 2006, which consisted mainly of accounts receivable and accounts payable. Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates could also have a material adverse effect on the value of these monetary assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars. Generally, appreciation of Renminbi against U.S. dollars will result in foreign exchange losses for monetary assets denominated in U.S. dollars and foreign exchange gains for monetary liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars. Conversely, depreciation of Renminbi against U.S. dollars will generally result in foreign exchange gains for monetary assets denominated in U.S. dollars and foreign exchange losses for monetary liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars.
      Without taking into account the effect of the potential use of hedging or other derivative financial instruments, we estimate that a 10% appreciation of Renminbi based on the foreign exchange rate on December 31, 2006 would result in our holding Renminbi equivalents of RMB 35.7 million and RMB 254.7 million (US$32.6 million) for our accounts receivable as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. These amounts would represent net loss of RMB 4.8 million and RMB 27.2 million (US$3.5 million) for our accounts receivable as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Conversely, we estimate that a 10% depreciation of Renminbi would result in our holding Renminbi equivalents of RMB 42.9 million and RMB 309.2 million (US$39.6 million) for our accounts receivable as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. These amounts would represent net income of RMB 2.4 million and RMB 27.2 million (US$3.5 million) for our accounts receivable as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
      Yingli Green Energy’s functional currency is U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities of Yingli Green Energy are translated into our reporting currency, the Renminbi, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated into our reporting currency, the Renminbi, at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from the translation of financial statements of Yingli Green Energy are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity.
      Tianwei Yingli’s functional currency is the Renminbi. Tianwei Yingli translates transactions denominated in other currencies into Renminbi and recognizes any foreign currency exchange gains and losses in our statement of income. Net foreign currency exchange loss was approximately nil in 2004, due to the relatively stable exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and Renminbi. Net foreign exchange loss was RMB 1.8 million in 2005 and RMB 8.1 million (US$1.0 million) in 2006, due to the adjustment of the exchange rate between the two currencies, effective July 21, 2005. We have not used any forward contracts, currency options or borrowings to hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. We cannot predict the effect of future

108


Table of Contents

exchange rate fluctuations on our results of operations and may incur net foreign currency exchange losses in the future. Although we plan to reduce the effect of such exposure through hedging arrangements, such as entering into forward exchange contracts and foreign currency option contracts, due to the limited availability of hedging instruments in China, we cannot assure you that we will find a suitable hedging arrangement, or that such hedging activities will be effective in managing our foreign exchange risk exposure.
      The value of your investment in our ADSs will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Renminbi. To the extent we hold assets denominated in U.S. dollars, including the net proceeds to us from this offering, any appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar could result in a foreign currency exchange loss recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income and a reduction in the value of our U.S. dollar denominated assets. On the other hand, a decline in the value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar could reduce the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of our financial results, the dividends Tianwei Yingli may pay us in the future, if any, the dividends we may pay to you in the future, if any, and the value of your investment in us, all of which may have a material adverse effect on the prices of our ADSs.
Interest Rate Risk
      Our exposure to interest rate risk primarily relates to our interest expenses incurred by our short-term borrowings and interest income generated by excess cash invested in demand deposits. Such interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. We have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risk exposure. We have not been exposed nor do we anticipate being exposed to material risks due to changes in interest rates. However, our future interest expense may increase due to changes in market interest rates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
      In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, or FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes . FIN 48 establishes the threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax-return positions in the consolidated financial statements as “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the taxing authority, and prescribes a measurement methodology for those positions meeting the recognition threshold. FIN 48 is effective and applicable to us on and after January 1, 2007. We have not yet determined the impact of adopting the provisions of FIN 48 on our financial position, result of operations and liquidity.
      In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments — An amendment of FASB Statements 133 and 140 , or SFAS No. 155. SFAS No. 155 improves financial reporting by eliminating the exemption from applying SFAS No. 133 to interests in securitized financial assets so that similar instruments are accounted for similarly regardless of the form of the instruments. SFAS No. 155 also improves financial reporting by allowing a preparer to elect fair value measurement at acquisition, at issuance, or when a previously recognized financial instrument is subject to a re-measurement event, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, in cases in which a derivative would otherwise have to be bifurcated, if the holder elects to account for the whole instrument on a fair value basis. SFAS No. 155 is effective and applicable to us for all financial instruments acquired or issued after January 1, 2007. We do not expect the adoption of this statement will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
      In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurement, or SFAS No. 157. SFAS No. 157 addresses standardizing the measurement of fair value for companies that are required to use a fair value measure of recognition for recognition or disclosure purposes. The FASB defines fair value as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measure date.” SFAS No. 157 is effective and applicable to us on and after January 1, 2007. We do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

BUSINESS
Overview
      We are one of the leading vertically integrated PV product manufacturers in China. Through Tianwei Yingli, our principal operating subsidiary based in China, we design, manufacture and sell PV modules, and design, assemble, sell and install PV systems that are connected to an electricity transmission grid or those that operate on a stand-alone basis. With an annual production capacity of 95 megawatts of polysilicon ingots and wafers, 90 megawatts of PV cells and 100 megawatts of PV modules as of the date of this prospectus, we believe we are currently one of the largest manufacturers of PV products in China as measured by annual production capacity. Except for the production of polysilicon materials that are used to manufacture polysilicon ingots and wafers, our products and services substantially cover the entire PV industry value chain from the manufacture of multicrystalline polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells, PV modules and PV systems to PV system installation. We believe we are one of the few large-scale PV companies in China to have adopted vertical integration as their business model. Our end-products include PV modules and PV systems in different sizes and power outputs. We sell PV modules under our own brand name, Yingli, to PV system integrators and distributors located in various markets around the world, including Germany, Spain, China and the United States.
      In 2002, we began producing PV modules with an initial annual production capacity of three megawatts and have significantly expanded production capacities of our PV products in the past four years. In April 2006, we launched a new expansion project in Baoding, China to increase our annual production capacity of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules to 600 megawatts each by 2010.
      Historically, we have sold and installed PV systems in the western regions of China where substantial government-subsidized, rural electrification projects are underway. We also sell PV systems to mobile communications service providers in China for use across China and plan to export our PV systems into major international markets such as Germany, Spain and the United States. In order to promote the export of our PV systems, we have participated in the design and installation of large PV system projects undertaken by our customers overseas. For example, we cooperated with Solar-Energiedach GmbH NL in the design and installation of a one-megawatt PV system covering the roof of the Kaiserslautern soccer stadium in Germany, one of the FIFA World Cup 2006 venues. Historically, sales of PV systems by us have not been significant. However, we expect our sales of PV systems to increase although we expect such sales to remain relatively insignificant as a percentage of our net revenues in the near term.
Our Competitive Strengths
      We believe that our following competitive strengths enable us to compete effectively and to capitalize on the rapid growth of the global PV market.
Vertically integrated business model
      In 2003, we developed the ability to manufacture multicrystalline polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells, PV modules and integrated PV systems. Our products and services currently comprise substantially the entire PV industry value chain except for the manufacture of polysilicon feedstock, and we believe we are one of the few PV companies in China who have adopted such a highly integrated business model. We believe that our vertically integrated business model enables us to capture profit at nearly every stage of the PV industry value chain and withstand, or capitalize on, the fluctuating profit margins of products at different stages of the PV industry value chain. While the profit margins for different products in the PV industry value chain may vary and change over time, we believe we would be well positioned to maintain or improve our overall profit margin relative to many of our competitors that produce only a limited range of PV products.
      We believe that our vertically integrated business model enables us to closely monitor the quality of our PV products and design and streamline our manufacturing process to more efficiently leverage technical and cost improvements across various stages of our manufacturing process. We believe that our vertically

110


Table of Contents

integrated business model has been instrumental to increasing the yield from our production process, improving the conversion efficiency of our PV cells and cutting the lead time in filling orders from our customers.
Cost-effective and efficient manufacturing process
      The technical improvements resulting from our research and development efforts have been instrumental in significantly reducing our production costs and increasing our operational efficiency. For example, our ability to reduce the thickness of our wafers from 325 microns in 2003 to 200 microns in December 2006 has enabled us to produce a greater number of wafers per unit of polysilicon used and reducing our per unit production cost. In addition, improvements in our techniques for mixing different grades of polysilicon feedstock have enabled us to use a greater percentage of cheaper polysilicon scraps, such as the discarded tops and tails of ingots, pot scraps and broken wafers, with a minimal reduction in the quality of our PV modules, which has enabled us to reduce our per unit material cost. Furthermore, the increase in the average conversion efficiency of our PV cells, which resulted from improving the absorption qualities of our PV cells, has enabled us to generate greater sales revenue from the same amount of polysilicon used as our PV modules, which are made up of PV cells, are sold on a per watt basis.
      We believe that a balanced combination of advanced automated manufacturing equipment and low-cost skilled labor in China also enables us to improve operational efficiency and reduce our cost more efficiently than our overseas competitors. For example, our newly acquired ingot-casting furnaces, ingot block-cutting bricketers and wafer-slicing wire saws use some of the more advanced process technologies, which has been instrumental in efficiently utilizing our resources. The relatively low cost of skilled labor in China also benefits us with respect to the labor-intensive aspects of our manufacturing processes such as sorting through polysilicon feedstock to gather feedstock suitable for production. We believe that our technology and our labor cost advantages provide us with substantial competitive advantages over our overseas competitors.
High-quality products and growing brand recognition
      We sell PV modules under our own brand name, Yingli, to PV system integrators and distributors worldwide. We plan to further build up our brand name by supplying consistently high quality products to our customers. The majority of our PV modules have passed the tests administered by the Arizona State University Photovoltaic Testing Laboratory under the IEC 61215 test standards, have received TÜV certificates in Germany, and have been authorized by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. of the United States to use the “UL” certification. We believe these international certifications and test standards foster customer confidence in our products and signify the quality and reliability of our products. We also actively participate in trade shows and exhibitions worldwide to promote our brand name and products. As a result of these efforts, we believe our brand name is achieving a significant level of recognition in our major overseas markets. Several articles about us have also appeared on the website of Solarbuzz, an independent solar energy research and consulting firm. According to information available to us, we believe we were, and still are, one of the two PV companies in China whose PV modules have been included in the “List of Eligible Renewable Equipment” compiled by the New Solar Homes Partnership Program administered by the California Energy Commission.
      In order to promote the export of our PV systems, we have participated in the design and installation of large PV system projects undertaken by our customers overseas. For example, we collaborated with Solar-Energiedach GmbH NL in the design and installation of a one-megawatt PV system covering the roof of the Kaiserslautern soccer stadium in Germany, one of the FIFA World Cup 2006 venues.
      In China, we were designated by the Chinese National Development and Reform Commission in 1999 to develop production capacity for multicrystalline PV cells and systems. Since then, we have been a leader in the research, development and refinement of production processes for multicrystalline PV products in China. In addition, we have actively promoted our brand name through advertisements on newspapers and trade magazines in China.

Steadily improving research and development capability
      Our research and development team was formed in 1998 and is one of the pioneers in the research and development of multicrystalline-based PV products in China. We have built a large team of experienced and talented engineers and technicians with proven research skills and the capability to solve practical problems encountered in our manufacturing process. Our engineers and technicians actively involve in our manufacturing process to solve problems on-site and continuously strive to find solutions to improve our manufacturing process. The key focus areas for our research and development activities include (i) reducing production costs, (ii) improving the quality and conversion efficiency of PV cells and PV modules and (iii) improving operational efficiency through seamless integration of the overall manufacturing process. As the result of our steadily improving research and development capacity, we began producing 240 kilogram multicrystalline polysilicon ingots in 2003 and 260 kilograms multicrystalline polysilicon ingots in 2005. In December 2006, we started producing wafers with a thickness of 200 microns.
Established customer and supplier relationships
      By supplying high-quality PV modules, we have established solid business relationships with a number of leading system integrators and installers in major international markets, including Germany, Spain and the United States, despite the fact that such business relationships have been developed in a short period of time. For example, we entered into long-term sales arrangements with our major international customers, including an arrangement with Acciona Energía, S.A., one of our key customers in Spain. Under the contract with Acciona Energía, we are required to supply an aggregate of 42 megawatts PV modules until 2008. The term of this contract may be extended for one year by mutual agreement. This contract can be terminated (i) for cause by either party, (ii) by Acciona Energía in cases of, among others, our bankruptcy, change of control or sale of substantially all of our assets, significant regulatory changes in China, failure to deliver or delivery of substandard PV modules by us, or (iii) by us if Acciona Energía loses the right to construct the solar energy facility for whose use our PV modules are being supplied or if we fail to obtain sufficient polysilicon.
      In China, we have built strategic relationships with leading Chinese telecommunications vendors, which have enabled us to sell to such vendors large, stand-alone integrated PV systems used to provide power to wireless telecommunications towers and base stations. In addition, we have a strong customer base in the southwestern regions of China, including Sichuan and Tibet. Chengdu Yingli and Tibetan Yingli sell and install PV systems in their respective local markets. Our presence in Sichuan and Tibet has enabled us to establish a strong customer base in these regions and maintain cooperative relationships with the local governments, both of which have helped us to obtain new business opportunities in Sichuan, Tibet and their surrounding regions.
      We have maintained close relationships with some of the world’s major polysilicon suppliers by entering into long-term supply contracts. With a view to obtaining larger amounts of long-term supplies of polysilicon on more favorable terms to satisfy our future needs, which is expected to increase as the result of our production capacity expansion plans for 2007 and 2008, we are actively seeking to further strengthen our relationship with our polysilicon suppliers and establish strategic relationships with them. We are also in active discussions with several other polysilicon suppliers overseas to secure supply of polysilicon on a long-term basis. We have concluded, and are in the process of negotiating, new polysilicon supply contracts with our major polysilicon suppliers. For example, we entered into two long-term supply contracts with Wacker Chemie AG, a German polysilicon supplier, for supplies of polysilicon from 2009 through 2013 and from 2009 through 2017, respectively. These contracts have terms of seven years and 11 years, respectively, and the prices at which polysilicon is supplied under these contracts are subject to adjustment every six months. We recently entered into another contract with Sichuan Xingguang Silicon Science and Technology Co., Ltd., or Xingguang. Subject to its actual production capability and output, Xingguang intends to supply 200 tons and 1,000 tons of silicon materials to us during 2007 and 2008, respectively. We currently estimate that over 90% of our currently expected polysilicon needs for 2007 and approximately 50% of our currently expected polysilicon needs for 2008 will be met by our existing contracts, as determined on the basis of our current capacity expansion plans.

Experienced management team
      Our management team has substantial expertise in our operations and increased our manufacturing capacity, revenues and profits. Mr. Liansheng Miao, our chairperson and chief executive officer and Tianwei Yingli’s vice chairperson and chief executive officer, has 20 years of senior management experience in the PV and other manufacturing businesses. Mr. Miao was featured on the front cover of Photon International , a leading trade journal on the subject of the international PV industry, in August 2005 and currently serves as an executive director of the Photovoltaic Committee of the China Renewable Energies Association. Mr. Guoxiao Yao, chief technology officer of Yingli Green Energy and Tianwei Yingli, has a doctorate degree in PV engineering. Mr. Seok Jin Lee, chief operating officer of Yingli Green Energy and Tianwei Yingli, has six years of senior management experience at Hyundai Heavy Industries, a South Korean heavy machinery manufacturer, including its solar business division. Mr. Zongwei Li, chief financial officer of Yingli Green Energy and Tianwei Yingli, has 11 years of experience in providing auditing services to large Chinese and international enterprises in the energy, high technology, manufacturing and other industries. As a result, our management team has developed a deep understanding of the major aspects of procurement, marketing and production of PV products in China.
Our Strategies
      We seek to maintain our leadership position in the development and manufacture of PV products by taking advantage of our high degree of vertical integration in the PV production process which yields economies of scale and cost savings. More specifically, we plan to focus on the following areas:
Expand PV systems sales to overseas markets
      We currently see a significant market potential in the design, development, installation and operation of PV systems in overseas markets. We believe that expansion of our sales and installation of PV systems into overseas markets will improve our profit margins and also add value to our brand name and create stable demand for our PV modules. Accordingly, while we plan to continue to strengthen our manufacturing capacity, we also plan to significantly expand the sale of PV systems by taking the following steps:
  •  fostering and improving our existing relationships with established PV system integrators and installers in Europe by continuing to participate in their large system integration and installation projects and supplying PV modules to these customers at competitive prices in exchange for the right to participate in their system integration projects; and
 
  •  building up our capabilities to undertake PV system projects in collaboration with PV system integrators and installers in Europe and the United States.
      We believe that our strong manufacturing capacity for upstream PV products, such as PV cells and PV modules, provides significant advantages to compete in the downstream market of PV system sales and installations. Our expansion in the PV system market will focus on large-scale, on-grid PV systems.
Expand global reach for our products
      Our current key international markets are Germany and Spain, which represented our largest and second largest markets based on the revenues from the sales of our PV modules and PV systems in 2006. We seek to increase sales in the United States and Spain and expand into selected countries in southern Europe and Southeast Asia, where we believe the PV market is likely to grow significantly in the near term. For example, in November 2006, we entered into a contract with Acciona Energía, S.A. for the supply of an aggregate of 42 megawatt PV modules until 2008. We believe the visibility of our brand name in Germany and Spain will help us expand into our new targeted markets in Europe. We also seek to strengthen our relationships with existing customers by entering into long-term supply contracts with them. We also plan to set up subsidiaries in Europe and the United States to provide services to our customers in those markets.

Secure and strengthen stable and long-term relationships with polysilicon suppliers
      Stable and reliable polysilicon supplies are critical to our long-term growth and profitability. Since 2003, when we began to purchase polysilicon for use in our PV products, we have met our polysilicon needs primarily through three-month to one-year supply contracts with suppliers and distributors overseas and in China. We seek to strengthen and expand these relationships by entering into more long-term and stable contractual relationships. For example, we plan to secure a portion of our polysilicon requirements from several polysilicon suppliers that are currently constructing polysilicon production facilities in China which are expected to commence operation in 2007.
Achieve technological advances through dedicated and continuous research and development efforts
      We plan to continue to dedicate an increasing amount of resources and efforts to research and development. The primary focus of our research and development efforts is on improving our manufacturing processes at each stage of our supply chain in order to raise the yield rate and deliver higher-efficiency and more diversified PV products at a lower cost. We believe these research and development efforts will help enhance the quality of our products, which we believe will in turn significantly enhance our profitability. More specifically, the key elements of our research and development efforts include:
  •  Adopt acid texturation technology for multicrystalline PV cells. We are in the process of adopting new equipment for our multicrystalline silicon PV cell production lines. These new equipment are able to isotropically create a textural effect on multicrystalline silicon PV cells to trap more light coming into multicrystalline PV cells and to reduce the reflection loss of this type of PV cells, hence substantially improving their short-circuit current.
 
  •  Optimize phosphorous doping profile and front-sided contact designs of multicrystalline silicon PV cells. We intend to optimize emitter doping profiles and emitter uniformity of our multicrystalline silicon PV cells, which we believe will significantly improve the spectral response to short wave length lights and efficiency consistency of our PV cells. In addition, we are seeking to improve the front contact designs of our multicrystalline silicon PV cells, which allows a reduction of the shading and resistance losses of the cells.
 
  •  Produce larger ingots and thinner wafers at lower cost. We intend to continue to explore ways to cast larger ingots and slice thinner wafers through cooperation with the furnace supplier to produce larger ingots.
 
  •  Improve PV system technology. In line with our strategy to expand our downstream PV system sales and installation, we seek to continuously improve our PV system technology. We plan to accumulate experience in implementing large on-grid PV system projects through cooperation with overseas PV system integrators and installers. We also plan to improve the technology for home-use PV systems to facilitate the use of our PV modules as replacement for tiles or other roof-covering materials.
 
  •  Optimize polysilicon feedstock mix. We plan to continue to optimize the silicon feedstock mixture used in the polysilicon ingot casting process and the methods by which they are prepared and mixed in order to reduce the use of expensive high-purity polysilicon with minimal effect on the quality of our polysilicon wafers or the conversion efficiency of our PV cells.
 
  •  Establish dedicated research institutions. We plan to establish a PV research and development center to support our expansion into the downstream PV system integration market. In addition, we plan to establish a training facility to further enhance the knowledge base of our research and development staff and strengthen our research and development and engineering resources.
Increase production capacity
      In April 2006, we launched a new expansion project in Baoding, China to increase our annual production capacity of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules to 600 megawatts each by

114


Table of Contents

2010. We will closely monitor the progress of this expansion project to avoid risks of over-expansion while evaluating other available expansion opportunities. We believe expansion of our production capacity is likely to result in greater economies of scale for our operations.
Expand market share in China
      Although the PV market in China is currently smaller than other major PV markets, such as Germany and Spain, we believe that the recent adoption of China’s Renewable Energy Law and the PRC government’s commitment to develop renewable energy sources may lead to rapid growth in the PV market in China. See “— Industry — Key Growth Drivers of the Solar Energy Industry — Government Incentives — China.”
      Based on market information available to us, we believe that we are currently one of the leaders in the Chinese PV market in terms of annual production capacity and degree of vertical integration, and we plan to take the following actions to further enhance our market position in China:
  •  strengthen our existing relationship with the PRC government and major Chinese telecommunications companies and equipment vendors, see “— Markets and Customers;”
 
  •  pursue new business opportunities in China, such as selling more independent PV systems to local residential users (as currently being pursued by Tibetan Yingli) and installing services for fire-prevention, telecommunication and weather forecasting stations (as currently being pursued by our subsidiary in Chengdu);
 
  •  promote the awareness of PV products in general and our brand name in particular by installing demonstration PV systems in public areas and through donation of PV systems; and
 
  •  leverage the experience and expertise obtained in overseas markets to develop a technological edge over our competitors in China as well as build up a greater visibility for our brand name and products in China.
Industry
Introduction
      Solar power systems are used for a variety of residential, commercial and industrial applications generally categorized as either “on-grid” or “off-grid.” “Off-grid” applications represent PV systems that operate on a stand-alone basis to provide electricity independent of an electricity transmission grid. “On-grid” applications represent PV systems that are connected to an electricity transmission grid and feeds electricity generated into the electricity transmission grid. The market for “on-grid” applications, where solar power is used to supplement electricity purchased from a public utility network, represents the largest and fastest growing segment of the market. The “Balanced Energy” forecast scenario prepared by Solarbuzz, a solar energy research and consulting firm, forecasted worldwide installations of PV systems to increase from 1,744 megawatts in 2006 to 4,177 megawatts in 2011. “Off-grid” markets offer opportunities to access solar energy where access to public utility networks is not physically or economically feasible. “Off-grid” markets include consumer applications such as portable recreation power modules and garden lighting, industrial applications, such as road signs, highway call boxes and support systems for communications systems, and rural residential applications.
      Advantages of Solar Energy
      Solar energy has several advantages over conventional energy and other forms of renewable energy, and these advantages have been increasingly recognized over time:
  •  Environmental Friendliness and Renewability. Solar power is one of the most environmentally friendly cleanest sources of electricity without air or water emissions, noise, vibrations or any waste generation.

115


Table of Contents

  •  Peak Energy Generation Ability. Solar power is well-suited to match peak energy needs as maximum sunlight hours generally correspond to peak demand periods when electricity prices are at their highest.
 
  •  Easily Located with End Users. Unlike other renewable resources such as hydroelectric and wind power, solar power can be utilized anywhere that receives sunlight and directly at the site where the power will be used. As a result, solar power avoids the expense of, and energy losses associated with, transmission and distribution of electricity from large-scale electrical plants to end users.
 
  •  No Fluctuations in Operating Costs. Unlike fossil and nuclear fuels, solar energy has no fuel price volatility. Although there is variability in the amount and timing of sunlight over the day, season and year, a properly sized and configured system can be designed for high reliability while supplying electricity on a long-term, fixed-cost basis.
 
  •  Reliability and Durability. Without moving parts or the need for periodic maintenance, solar power systems are among the most reliable forms of electricity generation. Accelerated aging tests have shown that solar modules can operate for at least 25 to 30 years without requiring major maintenance.
 
  •  Modularity. PV systems are easily modularized and scalable, and therefore can be deployed in many different sizes and configurations to meet the specific needs of the user. PV modules are increasingly used to serve as both a power generator and the exterior of a building. Like architectural glass, PV modules can be installed on the roofs and facades of residential and commercial buildings.
      The Global Market for Solar Energy
      The global PV market, as measured by annual solar power system installations at end-user locations, increased from 345 megawatts in 2001 to 1,744 megawatts in 2006, according to Solarbuzz. The Solarbuzz “Balanced Energy” forecast scenario forecasted global PV industry revenues and PV system installations to be US$18.6 billion and 4,177 megawatts, respectively, in 2011.
      Germany, Japan and the United States were the three largest single-country markets for PV industry installations in 2005. The following table sets forth the annual PV installations in key markets for the periods indicated.

Key Growth Drivers of the Solar Energy Industry
      We believe the following factors have driven and will continue to drive the growth of the solar energy industry.
Government Incentives
      The rapid growth of the PV industry in Germany, Japan and the United States is primarily attributable to government incentives in these countries. Other countries, including China, are increasingly adopting similar incentives. Typical government incentives include capital cost rebates, feed-in tariffs, tax credits and net metering. Capital cost rebates give government subsidies to persons who install a solar power system based on the size of such system. Feed-in tariffs involve requiring electricity utilities to make a payment to users for solar power that such users generate and provide to the grid based on kilowatt-hours produced, at a rate

116


Table of Contents

generally guaranteed for a period of time. Net metering allows a user to offset its electricity contributions to the public grid against the fees it pays for electricity used.
      Germany. Germany’s Renewable Energy Law of 2000 requires public power grid operators to connect various renewable energy sources to their electricity transmission grids and to purchase all electricity generated by such sources at guaranteed feed-in tariffs. Germany also provides capital expenditure subsidies, low-interest loans and tax relief to renewable energy generators and capital cost subsidies, low-interest loans and tax relief to end-users of renewable energy.
      Japan. Japan’s Residential PV System Dissemination Program (RPVDP), which was launched by the Japanese government in 1994 and ran through October 2005, contributed to Japan’s emergence as one of the leading PV markets in the world in terms of total installed PV capacity. The RPVDP subsidized PV systems for residential buildings and was responsible for PV installations at over 200,000 residential units in Japan. Japan is currently planning a subsidy program for 30 kilowatt to 50 kilowatt PV systems mounted on public buildings, schools, factories and office premises. Japan’s current target is to use renewable energy sources to meet up to 10% of its energy requirements by 2030, with approximately half (approximately 100 gigawatts) coming from PV energy sources.
      United States. A number of states in the United States have committed substantial resources to developing and implementing renewable energy programs. California, the largest PV market within the United States representing approximately 60 megawatts out of the total 90 megawatts installed in the United States in 2004, has adopted the California New Solar Homes Partnership Program, under which a purchaser of solar energy products becomes entitled to a cash rebate from the California Energy Commission, a state tax credit and net metering benefits. In addition, Colorado, New Jersey and Pennsylvania require electricity suppliers to obtain a certain percentage of their electricity from renewable resources and have set specific targets for procurement of solar products.
      China. China’s Renewable Energy Law, enacted in February 2005, authorizes the government to set favorable prices for surplus on-grid PV-generated electricity through feed-in tariffs. This law also requires the establishment of a renewable energy development fund for research and development and creates other financial incentives for renewable energy projects. The PRC government is planning to increase its PV installations to 450 megawatts by 2010 and to 900 megawatts by 2020.
      Other Countries. Other countries also have adopted initiatives to encourage the development of solar energy. For example, in August 2005, Spain, the second-largest solar energy market in Europe, adopted The New Renewable Energy Plan to install up to 500 megawatts of solar power generation capacity by the end of 2010. The actual feed-in tariffs for solar energy in Spain are fully guaranteed for 25 years and 80% guaranteed thereafter. The Spanish Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving provided 189.6 million to finance PV projects in 2004.
Advances in Technologies Making Solar Power More Cost-Efficient
      Recent technological advances have introduced more cost-effective ways to use solar power in off-grid products. For example, the power output of light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, has increased significantly in recent years while the voltage required to charge and the cost to produce LEDs have significantly decreased. As a result, a cost-effective combination of low-voltage LEDs and rechargeable solar-powered battery systems has led to a series of new product applications, including solar energy lighting products such as LED roadway, railway, marine, transit, aviation and other outdoor lighting, solar-powered bus stop signs and solar-powered oil and gas monitoring equipment. Consumer solar power applications also have expanded beyond simple solar-powered calculators, radios, watches and toys to more sophisticated products such as mobile phones and laptops.
Rising Energy Demand and Increasing Costs of Finite Fossil Energy Resources
      Worldwide economic development and population growth continue to fuel energy demand. Worldwide demand for electricity is expected to almost double from 14.3 billion megawatt hours in 2002 to 26.0 billion

117


Table of Contents

megawatt hours in 2025, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. According to Commodity Systems Inc., a world financial and commodity market data provider, the Brent crude oil price has increased from US$24.3 per barrel as of January 2, 2001 to US$60.66 per barrel as of February 28, 2007. Future demand for energy are likely to be met increasingly by renewable energy sources such as solar energy.
Increasing Environmental Concerns over Conventional Energy
      Increasing environmental concerns over the effect of burning fossil fuels have led to the implementation of greenhouse gas reduction strategies by many countries through international treaties such as the Kyoto Protocol and national or regional regulations to reduce air pollution. A significant number of countries, including the United States, Australia, China and certain members of the European Union, have adopted and are expected to continue government initiatives to encourage the development of solar power and other renewable energy sources in order to address these environmental concerns.
Narrowing Cost Differentials between Solar and Conventional Energy Sources
      Solar energy has become an attractive alternative energy source because of its decreasing manufacturing costs and reduced sales prices over time. According to the Solarbuzz “Balanced Energy” forecast scenario, the average price of PV modules is expected to decrease from US$3.72 per watt in 2006 to US$2.58 per watt in 2011.
Key Challenges for the Solar Energy Industry
      Continuing Reliance on Governmental Support and Incentives. At present, most renewable energy sources would not be cost-competitive compared to traditional energy sources without government support, and the PV industry relies on governmental incentives to encourage production and consumption, especially for on-grid systems. Changes in government policies could lead to a reduction in incentives and subsidies to the renewable energy sector, which could in turn seriously hinder the growth of the PV industry.
      Increasing Cost-Competitiveness. Although the costs of generating electricity through photovoltaic means have fallen significantly in recent years, solar power generation is still expensive compared to conventional power generation. The primary challenge to the PV industry is to reduce the price per watt of energy for the end-user. The cost per watt of PV systems can be reduced by, among others, lowering polysilicon cost, reducing silicon usage per watt, increasing the conversion efficiency of PV cells and improving manufacturing processes.
      Raw Materials Supply Shortage. At present, there is industry-wide shortage of polysilicon, which has increased the price of polysilicon. Although quartz sand, which is used to make polysilicon, is in ample supply, silicon extraction capacity is limited, and PV wafer makers compete with the semiconductor industry for polysilicon supply. We believe that the availability of polysilicon is the key issue affecting the growth prospects for the PV industry in the short to medium term.
      Aesthetic Concern. We believe that aesthetics are a barrier to the wider adoption of PV products among commercial and residential users. Established PV products tend to be heavy, rigid and fragile. PV producers can improve aesthetics by developing products that are lighter, more flexible and more modular and which can be more easily and attractively integrated into building structures.
The PV Industry Value Chain
      The PV industry value chain begins with the melting of metallurgical-grade silicon, purifying it and casting it into ingots. The ingots are then sliced into wafers, which are chemically processed to make PV cells that generate electric current when exposed to sunlight. Interconnected PV cells are packaged into modules, which protect PV cells and collect the electricity generated. PV systems are comprised of multiple modules and related electronics to harness and store the electricity generated.

118

      The following diagram illustrates the different stages of the PV industry value chain.
(FLOW CHART)
      For further information, see “— Manufacturing — Manufacturing Process.”
Our Products and Services
      Our products and services include the manufacture of polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells, PV modules and integrated PV systems, which encompass substantially the entire PV industry value chain, with the manufacture of polysilicon feedstock being the only significant exception.
Polysilicon Ingots and Blocks
      A polysilicon ingot is formed by melting, purifying and solidifying polysilicon feedstock into a brick-shaped ingot. Most of our ingots weigh up to 260 kilograms and reach the size of 690 millimeters x 690 millimeters x 240 millimeters. The polysilicon ingots are then cut into blocks. Our polysilicon blocks are generally available in two different sizes: 125 millimeters x 125 millimeters x 240 millimeters and 156 millimeters x 156 millimeters x 240 millimeters. We use our polysilicon blocks to produce polysilicon wafers.
Polysilicon Wafers
      The polysilicon blocks are then sliced into wafers with wire saws. Thinner wafers enable a more efficient use of polysilicon, and thus lower the cost per watt of power produced. The thickness of our wafers decreased from 325 microns in 2003 to 200 microns in December 2006. Our wafers are generally available in two sizes: 125 millimeters x 125 millimeters and 156 millimeters x 156 millimeters. At times when we have produced an excess amount of wafers as a result of the disparity in our wafer production capacity and the PV cell capacity, we provide the excess wafers to third-party toll manufacturers which process wafers to PV cell and return the PV cells to us for a processing fee under toll manufacturing arrangements. We sent approximately 75.0% and 40.8% of our polysilicon wafer output to third-party toll manufacturers for processing into PV cells in 2005 and 2006, respectively. Toll manufacturing is a type of contract manufacturing frequently used in the PV industry, under which part of the manufacturing process is outsourced to qualified third parties, or toll manufacturers. The raw materials used by toll manufacturers are usually supplied by the outsourcing company in order to control output quality. As we have achieved the same level of manufacturing capacity for each polysilicon wafers, and PV cells, we have terminated our toll manufacturing arrangement with third-party toll manufacturers.
PV Cells
      A PV cell is a device made from a polysilicon wafer that converts sunlight into electricity by a process known as the photovoltaic effect. The conversion efficiency of a PV cell is the ratio of electrical energy produced by the cell to the energy from sunlight that reaches the cell. The conversion efficiency of PV cells is determined to a large extent by the quality of wafers used to produce the PV cells, which is, in turn, determined by the mix of different types of polysilicon raw materials used in the ingot casting process. As a substantially vertically integrated PV product manufacturer, we have sought to optimize the ratio of expensive high-purity polysilicon to cheaper polysilicon scraps used in our feedstock mix so as to minimize production cost while maintaining the average conversion efficiency for our multicrystalline PV cells higher than 15.0%,

which we believe is within the range of industry standard and which we were able to attain during the first quarter of 2007.
      We generally use all of our PV cells in the production of our PV modules.
PV Modules
      A PV module is an assembly of PV cells that are electrically interconnected, laminated and framed in a durable and weatherproof package. Most of our PV modules are made with PV cells produced by us or by third-party PV cell manufacturers under toll manufacturing arrangements using polysilicon wafers produced by us. The raw materials used by toll manufacturers are usually supplied by the outsourcing company in order to control output quality. A small portion of our PV modules is made with PV cells provided by third-party suppliers. Our PV modules are made with a frame design that we believe enhances their ability to withstand strong wind and vibrations. A majority of PV modules produced by us have outputs ranging from 70 to 170 watts. The following table sets forth the major types of modules produced by us.
                             
            Optimum
        Maximum   operating

  1172 × 541       7.7       75 – 85       17  
  1580 × 808       15.7       145 – 170       35  
  1470 × 680       12.0       110 – 120       17  
Integrated PV Systems
      A PV system consists of one or more PV modules that are physically mounted and electrically interconnected with system components such as batteries and power electronics, to produce and store electricity. We produce PV systems and also design, assemble, sell and install stand-alone PV systems for lighting systems, mobile communication base stations and residential applications. In order to focus on our core PV products and their components, we no longer produce controllers, inverters and other components used in our PV systems but instead source them from third-party manufacturers and sell them to our customers as part of our PV systems. We typically install these systems on-site for our customers. For our larger PV systems, we work with the customers on-site to design, install, test and oversee the system start-up. Installation, testing and initial start-up of a PV system generally takes up to four months.
Manufacturing
      We started producing PV modules in 2002 and started producing polysilicon ingots and wafers in October 2003 and PV cells in March 2004. As of the date of this prospectus, we had the capacity to produce up to 95 megawatts of polysilicon ingots and wafers, 90 megawatts of PV cells and 100 megawatts of PV modules per year. We use our polysilicon wafers and PV cells as materials in the production of PV modules. Because our manufacturing capacity for polysilicon wafers used to exceed that for PV cells, we used to have toll manufacturing arrangements with third-party PV cell manufacturers which process the excess wafers into PV cells for us. We also purchased additional PV cells from third-party trading companies. As we have achieved the same level of manufacturing capacity for each polysilicon wafers, PV cells and PV modules, we have terminated our toll manufacturing arrangement with third-party toll manufacturers.
Manufacturing Process
      Polysilicon Ingots. The quality of polysilicon ingots determines, to a large extent, the quality of our final PV products. To produce polysilicon ingots, polysilicon is melted in a quartz crucible within a furnace. The melted polysilicon then undergoes a crystal growing process, gradually anneals and forms an ingot. To reduce the cost of polysilicon, we use a mix of high-purity polysilicon and lower-purity polysilicon, including polysilicon scraps such as the discarded tops and tails of ingots, pot scraps and broken or unused silicon

wafers. Our employees undertake the labor-intensive process of sorting through the polysilicon feedstock to separate polysilicon that meets our specified standards for the production of ingots. The polysilicon feedstock used in the production of multicrystalline polysilicon ingots is not required to have the same level of purity as that used to produce monocrystalline silicon ingots. Nonetheless, impurities in polysilicon feedstock present a challenge to the production of polysilicon ingots because impurities are difficult to separate in the casting process. After three years of research and development, we have developed a proprietary ingot casting technology that reduces casting time and enables the use of more lower-purity polysilicon, including polysilicon scraps, with minimal adverse effect on the quality of our PV modules.
      Blocks and Wafers. Polysilicon ingots are cut into polysilicon blocks, which are edge-ground to avoid breakage during the wafer-slicing process. Polysilicon blocks are then sliced into polysilicon wafers.
      PV Cells. The silicon wafers undergo an ultrasonic cleaning process to remove oil and surface particles, after which the wafers undergo a followed chemical cleaning process to remove the impurity and that create a suede-like structure on the wafer surface, reduces the PV cell’s reflection of sunlight and increases the PV cell’s absorption of solar energy. Through a diffusion process, we then introduce certain impurities into the silicon wafers and form an electrical field within the PV cell. We achieve the electrical isolation between the front and back surfaces of the silicon wafer by edge isolation, or removing a very thin layer of silicon around the edge. We then apply an anti-reflection coating to the front surface of the wafer to enhance its absorption of sunlight. We screen-print negative and positive metal contacts, or electrodes, on the front and back surfaces of the PV cell, respectively, with the front contact in a grid pattern to collect the electrical current. Silicon and metal electrodes are then connected through an electrode firing process in a conveyor belt furnace at a high temperature. Testing and sorting complete the manufacturing process for PV cells.
      The diagram below illustrates the PV cell manufacturing process:
(FLOW CHART)
      PV Modules. PV modules are formed by interconnecting multiple PV cells into desired electrical configurations through welding. The interconnected cells are laid out, are laminated in a vacuum. Through these processes, the PV modules are weather-sealed, and thus are able to withstand high levels of ultraviolet radiation, moisture, wind and sand. Assembled PV modules are packaged in a protective aluminum frame prior to testing.

      The following diagram illustrates the PV module manufacturing process:
(FLOW CHART)
      PV Systems. PV system production involves the design, sale, installation and testing of PV systems. We design PV systems according to our customers’ requirements. We integrate PV modules and other system components into PV systems by electronically interconnecting PV modules with system components such as inverters, storage batteries and electronic circuitry to produce, store and deliver electricity. For small PV systems such as portable electricity supply systems used for walkie-talkies, we complete the integration and testing procedures in our facilities in Baoding before such systems are sold to the end-customers. For mid-sized PV systems such as PV lighting systems, we complete the integration process in Baoding, but install and test for our customers on-site. For large PV systems, such as on-grid solar power stations and stand-alone PV systems, we work with the customers on-site to design, install, test and oversee the system startup.
Manufacturing Capacity Expansion
      We acquired our first turnkey production line for PV modules in 2001 and started production of PV modules in 2002. We acquired our first turnkey production line for ingots and wafers in 2002. We also acquired our first turnkey fabrication line for high-efficiency PV cells in 2002. The following table sets forth our production capacities for ingot and wafers, PV cells and PV modules at the end of each period indicated.

      We launched a new expansion project in April 2006 to construct new facilities on a large parcel of land near our existing facilities in Baoding, China. We expect to increase our annual production capacity for polysilicon ingots and wafers, PV cells and PV modules to 600 megawatts each by 2010.
Raw Materials
      Raw materials required in our manufacturing process include polysilicon, polysilicon scraps, crucibles, silicon carbides, cutting fluid, steel cutting wires, metallic pastes, laminate materials, tempered glass, aluminum frames, solder, batteries and other chemical agents and electronic components. We generally use vendors who have demonstrated quality control and reliability and maintains multiple supply sources for each of our key raw materials so as to minimize any potential disruption of our operations from supply problems with any one vendor. We generally evaluate the quality and delivery performance of each vendor periodically and adjusts quantity allocations accordingly.
      We have stocked a significant quantity of polysilicon in response to the worldwide shortage of polysilicon. We had approximately 210 tons of polysilicon and other silicon raw materials in stock as of December 31, 2006 and expect our polysilicon stock to increase further as we secure more polysilicon from our suppliers. We maintain adequate supply of other raw materials based upon periodic estimates of our outstanding customer orders.

      In 2005 and 2006, we purchased the substantial majority of our raw materials (other than polysilicon) from approximately ten to fifteen overseas suppliers and the rest from Chinese suppliers.
      Because our polysilicon wafer and PV cell outputs have historically been insufficient to satisfy the production needs for our PV module, we purchased less than 10% of our PV cells from trading companies in 2005 and ceased such purchases in 2006. In addition, we have entered into toll manufacturing arrangements pursuant to which we provide our wafers to third-party PV cell manufacturers which process the wafers into PV cells for us.
Silicon Raw Material
      Polysilicon and polysilicon scraps are the most important raw materials used in our production process. Due to growing global demand for polysilicon, prices for polysilicon have increased substantially in the past few years, a trend we believe will continue in the near term. We have maintained a close relationship with some of the world’s major polysilicon suppliers. We are actively seeking to further strengthen our relationship with our polysilicon suppliers and establish strategic relationships with them. We also have been in active discussions with several other overseas polysilicon suppliers to secure long-term supply contracts and in 2006 entered into two long-term supply agreements with a chemical company in Germany.
Quality Control
      We employ quality assurance procedures at key stages of our manufacturing process to identify and solve quality problems. Our quality assurance procedures start with raw material quality assurance, which includes annual evaluation of our major raw material suppliers and inspection of all raw materials upon their arrival at our factory. We also have quality control procedures in place at all key stages of our wafer, PV cell and PV module production processes. In addition, all of our wafers, PV cells and PV modules are tested before they are used in the next manufacturing step or sent to our warehouse for sale. If a problem is detected, a failure analysis is performed to determine the cause. To ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of our quality assurance procedures, we provide ongoing training to our production line employees. Our senior management team is actively involved in establishing quality assurance policies and managing quality assurance performance on a continuous basis.

Research and Development
      The primary focus of our research and development efforts is on improving our manufacturing processes at every stage of our production in order to improve the output quality at each stage and deliver more energy-efficient and more aesthetic PV products at a lower cost. In December 2006, we started producing wafers with a thickness of 200 microns. In addition, we are in the process of modifying our equipment and manufacturing process such that they are more suitable for producing wafers with a thickness of less than 200 microns. Our other research goals are to refine our wafer cutting techniques to improve the surface and internal physical characteristics of our wafers so as to decrease the wafer breakage rate and increase the number of wafers produced from each ingot. We are also improving our ingot casting and crystal growing processes to reduce the amount of time required for ingot formation, increase ingot output and reduce the cost of raw materials.
      According to Solarbuzz in 2006, the manufacturing capacity of PV cells produced from crystalline silicon represented 92% of the manufacturing capacity of the total PV cells, while the remaining 8% was from the manufacturing capacity of PV cells produced from other materials, such as those based on thin film.

124


Table of Contents

We believe PV cells made from crystalline silicon will continue to dominate the PV market in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our research and development efforts as they relate to PV cells have focused on improving technologies and processing techniques to increase the conversion efficiency and the power output of our PV cells, all of which are made from multicrystalline silicon. We also seek to reduce the breakage rate and failure rate and increase the success rate and conversion efficiency of our PV cells through the use of advanced equipment and improved manufacturing processes at each stage of our production. To ensure the competitiveness of our products, we closely monitor the development by our competitors of new-generation PV cells, such as thin film cells, that may or may not be made from crystalline silicon and will seek to respond to challenges and opportunities posed by new technology as appropriate.
      We are upgrading module assembly techniques to accommodate the delicate nature of thinner PV cells. We are also researching new solutions to lengthen our PV modules’ life span and make them more reliable, and to further increase the conversion efficiency of our PV cells and PV modules through the use of new materials and new technologies. In addition, we are working to improve our technologies to manufacture PV modules that can be used as construction materials. We are also collaborating with international PV system installers and integrators by participating in large on-grid PV system projects in order to accumulate more experience and knowledge in such projects.
Markets and Customers
      In 2003, we sold most of our products in China. Starting from 2004, our sales to foreign markets increased significantly. Germany became our largest market in 2004 and accounted for 66.8%, 65.5% and 61.2% of our total revenues in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. In 2004 and 2005, China was our second largest market and accounted for 23.9% and 15.7% of our total revenues, respectively. Spain was our second largest market in 2006 and accounted for 14.3% of our total revenues in 2006. For a breakdown of our net revenues by geographic regions in 2004 and 2005 and for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006 and the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, see note 24 to our consolidated audited financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. For the revenue contributions by our customers that individually accounted for greater than 10% of our net revenues in each reporting period, see note 2(c) to our consolidated audited financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.
      The products that we sell outside of China are primarily PV modules. These modules are sold primarily to installers, PV system integrators, property developers and other value-added resellers, who incorporate our PV modules into large on-grid integrated PV systems with batteries, inverters, mounting structures and wiring systems. In China, we have historically sold our PV modules primarily to government organizations, PV system integrators, telecommunications and broadcasting companies, solar lighting system manufacturers, traffic control equipment manufacturers and waterways inspection system installers for uses in various PV systems.
      We sell our PV modules typically through supply contracts with a term of less than one year and are obligated to deliver PV modules according to pre-agreed prices and schedules.
Sales and Marketing
      We seek to establish long-term sales channels in major international markets for PV modules, including Germany, Spain and the United States. We market and sell our PV modules in these countries directly to a selected number of PV system integrators and installers. We target these customers because we believe our relationships with these PV system integrators and installers enable us to (i) participate in large projects in international markets, (ii) enter new markets more easily, quickly and cost-effectively, (iii) leverage the marketing capabilities of other companies, and (iv) attract new customers.
      We sell our integrated PV systems in China to end-users directly or to large contractors who use our PV systems in their electricity projects. We employ a total of approximately 30 marketing and sales personnel at our headquarters in Baoding and also in Chengdu and Tibet. We target our sales and marketing efforts at companies in selected industry sectors, including telecommunications, public utilities and transportation. We

125


Table of Contents

believe we are one of the leading suppliers of integrated PV systems to mobile communications companies in China based on the wattage of PV systems installed. We believe the recent adoption of China’s Renewable Energy Law and the PRC government’s commitment to develop renewable energy sources will contribute to rapid growth of the PV market in China. We plan to leverage our existing relationships with end-users to increase our sales in China, especially our sales of PV systems.
      In order to avoid brand confusion, we generally do not use sales agents and have actively promoted our brand name through participation in trade shows and exhibitions and advertisements on newspapers and trade magazines.
Customer Support and Services
      We provide customer support and service in China through dedicated teams of technical service personnel located in Baoding, Chengdu and Tibet. Our customer support and service teams coordinate their activities with the marketing, technology, quality and manufacturing departments.
      Our PV modules are typically sold to customers outside China with a two-year limited warranty for defects in materials and workmanship, and a 10-year and 25-year limited warranty against declines of more than 10.0% and 20.0% in output performance, respectively, from the initial power generation capacity at the time the product is sold. In connection with our PV system installation projects in China, we provide a one- to five-year warranty for our modules, storage batteries, controllers and inverters. Because we have sold our products for less than five years and some of our warranties last for up to 25 years, it is difficult to estimate future incidence of our product failures and associated warranty costs. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Us and the PV Industry — Unsatisfactory performance or defects in our products may cause us to incur warranty expenses, damage our reputation and cause our sales to decline.”
Intellectual Property
      We have registered our trademarks “Yingli” and “Songzan” in China and applied for registration of a new trademark “Yingli Solar” in China in June 2006. We have also registered “Yingli Solar” in a number of foreign jurisdictions where we sell or plan to sell our products, including all members of the European Union, the United States and Canada. We have not applied for any patents and relies primarily on trade secret protections and employee and third-party confidentiality agreements to safeguard our intellectual property. Other than the know-how available in the public domain, we have developed in-house unpatented technical know-how that we use to manufacture our products. Many elements of our manufacturing processes involve proprietary know-how, technology or data, either developed by us in-house or transferred to us by our equipment suppliers, which are not covered by patents or patent applications, including technical processes, equipment designs and algorithms. We have taken security measures to protect these elements. Substantially all of our research and development personnel are parties to confidentiality, non-competition and proprietary information agreements with us. These agreements address intellectual property protection issues and require our employees to assign to us all of the inventions, designs and technologies that they develop during their terms of employment with us. We also take other precautions, such as internal document and network assurance and using a separate dedicated server for technical data. We have not had any material intellectual property claims since our inception. See “Risk Factor — Risks Related to Us and the PV Industry — Our lack of patent protection inside and outside of China may undermine our competitive position and subject us to intellectual property disputes with third parties, both of which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.”
Competition
      The PV market is intensely competitive and rapidly evolving. The number of PV product manufacturers is rapidly increasing due to the growth of actual and forecast demands for PV products and the relatively low barriers to entry. If we fail to attract and retain customers in our target markets for our current and future core products, namely PV modules and PV systems, we will be unable to increase our revenues and market share.

126


Table of Contents

      Since 2004, the significant majority of our revenues have been derived from overseas markets, particularly Germany, and increasingly, Spain, Italy and the United States, and we expect these trends to continue. A significant portion of our revenues are also derived from China. In these markets, we often compete with local and international producers of PV products that are substantially larger than us, including the solar energy divisions of large conglomerates, such as BP Solar and Sharp Corporation, PV module manufacturers, such as Sunpower Corp. and Suntech Power Holdings Co., Ltd., and integrated PV product manufacturers, such as SolarWorld AG and Renewable Energy Corporation.
      With respect to PV modules, we compete primarily in terms of price, reliability of delivery, consistency in the average wattage of our PV modules, durability, appearance and the quality of after-sale services. We believe our efficient use of raw materials, including our use of polysilicon scraps, combined with our access to low cost labors and facilities in China, make our PV modules competitive in overseas markets. We sell small commercial, personal and home-use PV systems primarily in China where we have competitive advantages over our overseas competitors because of our closer proximity to customers in China and better understanding of their needs. With respect to large integrated PV system projects, we compete primarily in terms of price, design and construction experience, aesthetics and conversion efficiency.
Environmental Matters
      Our manufacturing processes generate noise, waste water, gaseous waste and other industrial waste. We have installed various types of anti-pollution equipment in our facilities to reduce, treat, and where feasible, recycle the wastes generated in our manufacturing process. The most significant environmental contaminant we generate is waste water. We have built special facilities to filter and treat waste water generated in our production process and recycles the water back into our production process. The other major environmental contaminant we generate is gaseous waste. We treat such gas in our special facilities to reduce the contaminant level to below the applicable environmental protection standard before discharging the gas into the atmosphere. Our operations are subject to regulation and periodic monitoring by local environmental protection authorities. The Chinese national and local environmental laws and regulations impose fees for the discharge of waste substances above prescribed levels, require the payment of fines for serious violations and provide that the Chinese national and local governments may at their own discretion close or suspend the operation of any facility that fails to comply with orders requiring it to cease or remedy operations causing environmental damage. No such penalties have been imposed on us or our subsidiary, and we believe that we have complied with applicable environmental regulations and standards in all material respects and have all environmental permits necessary to conduct our business. We are not aware of any pending or threatened environmental investigation proceeding or action by any governmental agency or third party.
Employees
      We had 567, 971 and 1,552 employees as of December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The following table sets forth the number of our employees categorized by our areas of operations and as a percentage of our total employees as of December 31, 2006:

of our manufacturing line employees held post-high school technical degrees or high school diplomas. Many of these employees have overseas education and industry experience, and we periodically send our technical personnel overseas for advanced study and training. Our employees also receive annual training courses in subjects relevant to their positions within our company. Substantially all of our employees are based in China.
      We use annual reviews and job achievement quotas to measure our employees’ job performance, and about 30% of employees’ annual compensation is tied to their job performance. As of December 31, 2006, we were required by PRC law to make monthly contributions in amounts equal to 20.0%, 7.5%, 2.0%, 1.0% and 0.9% of our employees’ average monthly salary in the preceding year to a pension plan, a medical insurance plan, an unemployment insurance plan, a work-related injury insurance plan and a maternity insurance plan, respectively, each for the benefit of our employees subject to certain statutory limits.
      Our employees are not subject to any collective bargaining agreement. We have not been involved in any material labor disputes. We believe that we have a good relationship with our employees.
Insurance
      We maintain a property insurance policy covering 100% of the book value of our equipment, facilities and inventory. The insurance policy covers losses due to fire, earthquake, flood and a wide range of other natural disasters. Insurance coverage for our inventory and fixed assets amounted to approximately RMB1,614 million as of the date of this prospectus. We also maintain insurance policies in respect of marine, air and inland transit risks of our products. We also purchase personal injury insurance and accidental medical care insurance for our employees who go abroad for system installation projects. In addition, we have obtained product liability insurance coverage. The insurance policy covers bodily injuries and property damages caused by the products we sold, supplied or distributed up to specified limits. We do not maintain any insurance coverage for business interruption or key-man life insurance on our executive officers. We consider our insurance coverage to be adequate. However, significant damage to any of our manufacturing facilities and buildings, whether as a result of fire or other causes, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Terms of Directors and Executive Officers

Our directors are not subject to a term of office and hold office until such time as they are removed from office by special resolution or the unanimous written resolution of all shareholders. A director will be removed from office automatically if, among other things, the director (i) becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors, or (ii) dies or is found by our company to be or becomes of unsound mind.
Board of Directors

Under the shareholders agreement, dated December 15, 2006, among the Series A preferred shareholder, the Series B preferred shareholders, Mr. Liansheng Miao, Yingli Power and us, the Series A preferred shareholder and the Series B preferred shareholders each have the right to nominate one director to our board of directors and Tianwei Yingli’s board of directors. The directors nominated by the preferred shareholders may also become members of each of the committees of our board and of the board of Tianwei Yingli.

Qualification

Employment Agreements
      We have entered into employment agreements with all of our executive officers. Under these agreements, each of our executive officers is employed for a specified time period. We may terminate his or her employment for cause at any time, with prior written notice, for certain acts of the executive officer, including but not limited to a conviction to a felony, or willful gross misconduct by the executive officer in connection with his or her employment, and in each case if such acts have resulted in material and demonstrable financial harm to us. An executive officer may, with prior written notice, terminate his or her employment at any time for any material breach of the employment agreement by us that is not remedied promptly after receiving the remedy request from the employee. Furthermore, either party may terminate the

134


Table of Contents

employment agreement at any time without cause upon advance written notice to the other party. Upon termination, the executive officer is generally entitled to a severance pay of at least one month’s salary.
      Each executive officer has agreed to hold, both during and subsequent to the terms of his or her agreement, in confidence and not to use, except in pursuance of his or her duties in connection with the employment, any of our confidential information, technological secrets, commercial secrets and know-how. Our executive officers have also agreed to disclose to us all inventions, designs and techniques resulted from work performed by them, and to assign us all right, title and interest of such inventions, designs and techniques.
Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers
      In 2006, the aggregate cash compensation to our executive officers, including all the directors, was RMB 0.9 million. For options and restricted shares granted to officers and directors, see “— 2006 Stock Incentive Plan.”
2006 Stock Incentive Plan
      The 2006 stock incentive plan was adopted by our shareholders and board of directors in December 2006. The 2006 stock incentive plan provides for the grant of options, limited stock appreciation right and other stock-based awards such as restricted shares. The purpose of the plan is to aid us and our affiliates in recruiting and retaining key employees, directors or consultants of outstanding ability and to motivate such employees, directors or consultants to exert their best efforts on behalf of us and our affiliates by providing incentives through the granting of awards. Our board of directors believes that our company’s long-term success is dependent upon our ability to attract and retain talented individuals who, by virtue of their ability, experience and qualifications, make important contributions to our business.
      Administration. The 2006 stock incentive plan will be administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors, or in the absence of a compensation committee, the board of directors. The committee is authorized to interpret the plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the plan, and to make any other determinations that it deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the plan. The committee will determine the provisions, terms and conditions of each award, including, but not limited to, the exercise price for an option, vesting schedule of options and restricted shares, forfeiture provisions, form of payment of exercise price and other applicable terms.
      Change of Control. The 2006 stock incentive plan defines a “change of control” as the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the sale or disposition, in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all, of our assets to any third party; (ii) any third party is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the total voting power of our voting stock or any entity which controls us (counting the shares that such third party has the right to acquire) by way of merger, consolidation, tender, exchange offer or otherwise; or (iii) during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constituted the board (together with any new directors elected or nominated by such board) cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the board, then in office. Upon a change of control, the compensation committee may decide that all outstanding awards that are unexercisable or otherwise unvested or subject to lapse restrictions will automatically be deemed exercisable or otherwise vested or no longer subject to lapse restrictions, as the case may be, as of immediately prior to such acquisition. The compensation committee may also, in its sole discretion, decide to cancel such awards for fair value, provide for the issuance of substitute awards that will substantially preserve the otherwise applicable terms of any affected awards previously granted, or provide that affected options will be exercisable for a period of at least 15 days prior to the acquisition but not thereafter.
      Amendment and Termination of Plan. Our board of directors may at any time amend, alter or discontinue the 2006 stock incentive plan. Amendments or alterations to the 2006 stock incentive plan are subject to shareholder approval if they increase the total number of shares reserved for the purposes of the plan or change the maximum number of shares for which awards may be granted to any participant, or if shareholder approval is required by law or by stock exchange rules or regulations. Any amendment, alteration

135


Table of Contents

or termination of the 2006 stock incentive plan must not adversely affect awards already granted without written consent of the recipient of such awards. Unless terminated earlier, the 2006 stock incentive plan will continue in effect for a term of ten years from the date of adoption.
      Amendment No. 1 to the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan. Our board of directors approved in April 2007 and our shareholders approved in May 2007 the amendment No. 1 to the 2006 stock incentive plan, which will amend our 2006 stock incentive plan to increase the number of ordinary shares that we are authorized to issue from 3,394,054 shares to 8,240,658 shares. Among these shares, up to 2,715,243 shares may be issued for the purpose of granting awards of restricted shares and up to 5,525,415 shares may be issued for the purpose of granting options. The amendment will not change any other material provisions of the 2006 stock incentive plan.
      Options. An option granted under the 2006 stock incentive plan will have specified terms set forth in an option agreement and will also be subject to the provisions of the 2006 stock incentive plan which include the following principal terms. The compensation committee will determine in the relevant option agreement the purchase price per share upon exercise of the option, with the purchase price of no less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares on the option grant date. The compensation committee will also determine in the relevant option agreement whether the option granted and vested under the award agreement will be exercisable following the recipient’s termination of services with us. If the ordinary shares covered by an option are not exercised or purchased on the last day of the period of exercise, they will terminate. The term of an option granted under the 2006 stock incentive plan may not exceed ten years from the date of grant. The consideration to be paid for our ordinary shares upon exercise of an option or purchase of shares underlying the option include cash, check or other cash-equivalent, ordinary shares, consideration received by us in a cashless exercise, or any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. Options granted under the 2006 incentive plan are not transferable and may not be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the option holders, except that the compensation committee may permit the options to be exercised by and paid to certain persons or entities related to the option holders.
      Granted Options. As of the date of this prospectus, our board of directors has granted options to purchase an aggregate of 610,929 ordinary shares to four executive officers at an exercise price of US$2.10 per share. We agreed to grant options to these executive officers at an exercise price of US$2.10, which was determined with reference to the purchase price per share for the Series A financing transaction, at the time when we began negotiating their respective employment terms in September 2006. However, these options were not granted until December 28, 2006 when we finally adopted the 2006 stock incentive plan.
      Subject to the completion of this offering, we will grant options to purchase an aggregate of 115,000 ordinary shares to three independent directors and one key employee. These options will have an exercise price per share equal to the public offering price for each ADS specified on the cover page of this prospectus divided by the number of ordinary shares represented by each ADS.
      Provided the option holder remains a director, officer or employee of ours, each of the relevant option award agreements with the three independent directors provides that the option will vest and become exercisable with respect to one-third of the shares initially covered by the option on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the option grant date, and each of the relevant option award agreements with the four executive officers and one key employee provides that the option will vest and become exercisable with respect to 25% of the shares initially covered by the option on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the option grant date. Following the option holder’s termination of service with us for any reason, the option, to the extent not then vested, will be canceled by us without consideration. Upon a change of control, the options will, to the extent not then vested and not previously canceled, become fully vested and exercisable immediately.

      Restricted Shares. Restricted shares issued under the 2006 stock incentive plan will have specified terms set forth in an award agreement and will also be subject to the provisions of the 2006 stock incentive plan. Unless otherwise permitted by the compensation committee, restricted shares are not transferable and may not be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered at any time prior to becoming vested or during any period in which we may repurchase them.
      Granted Restricted Shares. As of the date of this prospectus, our board of directors has granted to DBS Trustees Limited, or the trustee, an aggregate of 2,621,060 restricted shares for the benefit of 70 trust participants, consisting of an aggregate of 1,606,300 restricted shares granted to nine directors and officers of us and Tianwei Yingli and an aggregate of 1,014,760 restricted shares granted to 61 other employees pursuant to two restricted stock award agreements and a trust deed. The trustee will hold the restricted shares in trust and will be the registered holder of the restricted shares until such shares are vested, forfeited or repurchased by us. Our board of directors has appointed a managing committee to provide recommendations, advice or instructions to the trustee in connection with the administration of the trust. The restricted stock award agreements and the trust deed contain, among other things, provisions concerning the constitution and structure of the trust, and vesting and forfeiture of the restricted shares, our right to repurchase the restricted shares within a period after vesting of the restricted shares, distribution to trust participants, transfer restrictions, dividends and voting rights, and consequence of third-party acquisition.
      So long as the trust participant remains a director, officer, employee or consultant of ours, as the case may be, 20% of the restricted shares issued for the benefit of that trust participant will vest on the first anniversary following the award grant date and the remaining 80% will vest ratably in 20% increments on the second, third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the award grant date. Restricted shares granted for the benefit of a trust participant will also fully vest upon termination of service resulting from death or disability of the trust participant that is due to work-related reasons. Following a trust participant’s termination of service with us, except if such termination is resulting from the trust participant’s death or disability that is due to work-related reasons, the restricted shares granted for the benefit of such trust participant will, to the extent not then vested, be forfeited without any consideration.
      For a period of six months after any restricted shares are vested, the trustee will be required to, upon our written request, sell all or part of the vested restricted shares to us at fair market value. The trustee will

137


Table of Contents

distribute the repurchase price paid by us, and any dividend accumulated on the repurchased shares from their vesting dates, to us as the agent of the applicable trust participants. Any vested restricted shares that are not repurchased by us during the six-month period will be distributed to us as the agent of the applicable trust participants either in specie or in cash at the option of the applicable trust participants. We will then distribute the repurchase price, the restricted shares or cash, as the case may be, to the applicable trust participants after withholding relevant taxes in accordance with applicable laws.
      The restricted shares will not be entitled to dividends paid on the ordinary shares until such restricted shares are vested. The restricted shares will have the same voting rights as our other ordinary shares. All voting rights of the restricted shares will be exercised by the trustee in accordance with the managing committee’s instructions before the restricted shares are vested, and in accordance with the instructions of the applicable trust participants after the restricted shares are vested. Upon a change of control, all restricted shares granted to the trustee for the benefit of the trust participants will become fully vested immediately.
      The following table summarizes, as of the date of this prospectus, the outstanding restricted shares granted to the trustee for the benefit of the following directors and executive officers of us and Tianwei Yingli and the other trust participants pursuant to the 2006 stock incentive plan.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Transactions with Mr. Liansheng Miao and Entities Controlled by Mr. Miao
      We were incorporated in August 2006 as a Cayman Islands exempted company by Mr. Liansheng Miao to serve as an offshore listing vehicle for Tianwei Yingli and facilitate the flow of foreign investment into Tianwei Yingli.
      Tianwei Yingli was co-founded in August 1998 by Yingli Group, a PRC limited liability company, which was founded and is 100% owned by Mr. Miao. Tianwei Yingli became our predecessor and subsidiary on September 5, 2006, when Yingli Group transferred its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to us. See “Restructuring — Restructuring.”
      Our controlling shareholder is Yingli Power, a British Virgin Islands corporation, which is 100% owned by Mr. Miao. In August 2006, Yingli Power made an initial capital contribution of US$500,000 to us in exchange for 50,000,000 of our ordinary shares, and in September 2006, it made an additional capital contribution of US$100,000 to us in exchange for 9,800,000 of our ordinary shares.
      Yingli Power also served as an intermediary in our securing equity-linked debt financing from Deutsche Bank AG, Singapore branch. On November 13, 2006, we issued US$85 million in aggregate of mandatory convertible bonds and mandatory redeemable bonds to Yingli Power, which on the same date issued mandatory exchangeable notes and mandatory redeemable notes to Deutsche Bank AG, Singapore branch for the same aggregate amount and on substantially similar terms (other than the split for the exchangeable or convertible portion). See ” — Private Equity Investments and Other Financings — Mandatory redeemable bonds and mandatory convertible bonds.” We plan to repay in full the mandatory redeemable bonds issued to Yingli Power in the principal amount of US$38 million with proceeds from this offering. See ”Use of Proceeds.”
      Yingli Group has had a series of financial transactions with Tianwei Yingli. Prior to December 31, 2002, Yingli Group borrowed RMB 8.4 million. In 2005 and 2006, Yingli Group borrowed RMB 0.4 million and RMB 115 million (US$14.7 million), respectively from Tianwei Yingli. These loans were made to support the cash flow needs of Yingli Group and were unsecured, interest-free and had no definite terms of repayment. Yingli Group has repaid all of these loans in full. In 2006, Tianwei Yingli borrowed RMB 0.9 million (US$0.1 million) from Yingli Group without interest due and any definitive terms of repayment, of which RMB 0.6 million (US$76,883) was repaid in 2006 and RMB 0.3 million (US$41,318) remained outstanding as of December 31, 2006. In September 2006, Yingli Group also entrusted a loan of RMB 125.0 million (US$16.0 million) in favor of Tianwei Yingli through Agricultural Bank of China to Tianwei Yingli. This loan bears interest at a rate of 5.58% per annum and matures on March 30, 2007.
Transactions with Tianwei Baobian and Its Controlling Shareholder
      Tianwei Baobian, a PRC company listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and 51.1%-owned by Tianwei Group, a wholly state-owned limited liability company established in the PRC, is a shareholder of Tianwei Yingli. After becoming a shareholder in Tianwei Yingli in April 2002, Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli decreased from 51.0% as of December 9, 2005, to 49.0% as of August 9, 2006 following a series of restructuring transactions as described in “Restructuring — Restructuring,” and to 37.87% as of November 13, 2006 following our capital contribution to Tianwei Yingli of proceeds from the issuance of the Series A preferred shares, the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds, and would further decrease to 29.89% upon our obtaining relevant PRC regulatory approvals and registrations for our capital contribution to Tianwei Yingli of proceeds from the issuance of the Series B preferred shares. See “Restructuring — Private Equity Investments and Other Financings Following Restructuring.”
      The respective rights and obligations of us and Tianwei Baobian as the shareholders of Tianwei Yingli are governed by a joint venture contract, which is dated August 25, 2006 and amended from to time to reflect, among others, the changes in the respective equity holdings by us and Tianwei Baobian. The joint venture contract, which is governed by PRC law, provides that, among others, Tianwei Baobian has a right,

after this offering, to subscribe for a number of our ordinary shares in exchange for all but not part of its equity interest in Tianwei Yingli at the time of the exercise according to a formula set forth in the joint venture contract. For further description of this subscription right and other key provisions of the joint venture contract, see “Restructuring  — Joint Venture Contract.”
      As Tianwei Yingli’s shareholder, Tianwei Baobian has provided financial support to Tianwei Yingli in a series of transactions. In 2002, Tianwei Yingli borrowed RMB 8.0 million from Tianwei Baobian, at an interest rate of 7.56% per annum and due upon demand, which was repaid in 2006. In 2005, Tianwei Yingli borrowed another RMB 8.0 million from Tianwei Baobian, without any interest due and any definite terms of repayment, which was repaid in full in 2005. In 2005, Tianwei Yingli also borrowed RMB 92.3 million in aggregate from Tianwei Baobian and its subsidiaries, without any interest due and any definite terms of repayment, which was repaid in full in 2006. In 2006, Tianwei Yingli borrowed an additional RMB 7.2 million (US$0.9 million) from Tianwei Baobian, without any interest due and any definite terms of repayment, which was repaid in full in the same year. In addition, prior to 2002, Tianwei Yingli borrowed RMB 0.1 million from Mr. Qiang Ding, chairperson of the board of directors of Tianwei Baobian, without any interest due and definitive terms of repayment, which was repaid in full in March 2007. As of the date of this prospectus, Tianwei Yingli had no outstanding loans from Tianwei Baobian or its affiliates.
      Historically, Tianwei Baobian and its controlling shareholder, Tianwei Group, also guaranteed or entrusted a substantial portion of Tianwei Yingli’s short-term borrowings from banks and other parties. In 2004, 2005 and 2006, Tianwei Baobian guaranteed and entrusted loans of RMB 80.0 million, RMB 451.4 million and RMB 839.7 million (US$107.6 million), respectively, for the benefit of Tianwei Yingli. These loans bore interest in the range of 3.78 to 6.70% and typically had a maturity of one to 12 months. As of December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, these guaranteed and entrusted loans amounted to RMB 80.0 million, RMB 234 million and RMB 232 million (US$29.7 million), respectively, or 87.0%, 67.5% and 86.8% of our short-term borrowings as of the same dates. In January 2007, Tianwei Group guaranteed a loan extended by Bank of China to Tianwei Yingli in a principal amount of US$3.3 million at an interest rate of 6.21% per annum for a term of 58 days, which was repaid on March 9, 2007. In February 2007, Tianwei Baobian guaranteed up to RMB 145.0 million in the aggregate of Tianwei Yingli’s loans from China Everbright Bank, China CITIC Bank and Bank of Communications, each of which bears an interest rate of 6.12% per annum. The loan from China CITIC Bank matures in February 2008 and has a term of one year, while the loans from China Everbright Bank and Bank of Communications mature in January 2008 and have a term of 11 months.
      Tianwei Baobian and Tianwei Group have also assisted Tianwei Yingli in procuring equipment from overseas suppliers. In 2006, Tianwei Yingli made payments to Tianwei Group of RMB 16.5 million (US$2.1 million) as deposits for Tianwei Baobian to secure letter of credit issued to certain overseas equipment suppliers. Such payments are reclassified to “construction in progress” when Tianwei Group pays the amount to the equipment suppliers on Tianwei Yingli’s behalf. The outstanding balance of such payments was RMB 8.3 million (US$1.1 million) as of December 31, 2006.
      In addition, in 2006, Tianwei Yingli borrowed RMB 20.0 million (US$2.6 million) from Baoding Yuan Sheng Investment & Development Co. Ltd., a PRC real estate company 51% owned by Tianwei Group and 49% owned by Yingli Group, without interest due and any definitive terms of repayment, of which RMB 1.6 million was repaid in 2006 and the remaining RMB 18.4 million was repaid in January 2007.
Certain Other Related Party Transactions

Such amount was included as deferred offering costs in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2006.
      In September 2005, Tianwei Yingli acquired an additional 40% of equity interest in Tibetan Yingli, an entity we account under the equity method of accounting, for a consideration of RMB 8.0 million, which remained unpaid and outstanding until December 31, 2006, when the amount was reduced to nil when

Tibetan Yingli’s board approved to offset such amount against operational advances of an equivalent amount made by Tianwei Yingli to Tibetan Yingli. In 2006, Tianwei Yingli also paid RMB 9.3 million (US$1.2 million) for operating activities on behalf of Tibetan Yingli.
      Tianwei Yingli borrowed RMB 13.1 million from Tianli New Energy Resources Co., Ltd, or Tianli, a company whose shareholders include Mr. Liansheng Miao, our chairperson and chief executive officer, Mr. Xiangdong Wang, our director and vice president and Mr. Zhiheng Zhao, our vice president. This loan was unsecured, interest-free, had no definitive terms of repayment and remained outstanding as of December 31, 2006. When Tianli dissolved in 2006, the loan from Tianli was transferred to its shareholders in proportion to their equity interest in Tianli.
      In 2005, Tianwei Yingli received advance payments for the sale of raw material inventory of RMB 3.6 million from Yitongguangfu Technical Co., Ltd., or Yitongguangfu, a PRC company whose shareholders include Mr. Xiangdong Wang, our director and vice president. In 2005 and 2006, Tianwei Yingli sold raw materials in the amount of RMB 2.0 million and RMB 0.5 million (US$64,069), respectively, to Yitongguangfu. Tianwei Yingli currently does not expect to continue to sell similar raw material to Yitongguangfu in the future. Tianwei Yingli also made prepayments of RMB 15.0 million and RMB 7.7 million (US$1.0 million), respectively, in 2005 and 2006 to Yitongguangfu, for the purchase of metal strips. Tianwei Yingli’s actual purchase from Yitongguangfu amounted to nil and RMB 4.2 million (US$0.5 million) in 2005 and 2006, respectively. The purchases related to the RMB 15.0 million of prepayment made in 2005 did not materialize and the amount was returned in full in January 2006. The outstanding balance of prepayment as of December 31, 2006 was RMB 3.5 million (US$0.5 million) in purchases of metal strips in 2006. Tianwei Yingli may continue to purchase similar products from Yitongguangfu in the future. Tianwei Yingli plans to pay Yitongguangfu in cash the unpaid balance of RMB 1.1 million in the third quarter of 2007.
      In 2005, Tianwei Yingli purchased cleaning products and miscellaneous office products and services in the amount of RMB 0.2 million from Yingli Municipal Public Facilities Company, or Yingli Municipal, a subsidiary of Yingli Group, which was paid in full in 2006.

Series A Preferred Shares and Related Warrant
      On September 28, 2006, we issued to Inspiration Partners Limited 8,081,081 Series A preferred shares for an aggregate purchase price of approximately US$17.0 million. On the same date, we also issued to TB Management Ltd., an affiliate of Inspiration Partners Limited, a warrant to purchase 678,811 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$2.10 per share. All outstanding Series A preferred shares held by Inspiration Partners Limited are automatically convertible into our ordinary shares upon the completion of this offering at a conversion ratio of one-to -one, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. Any outstanding warrant held by TB Management is exercisable into our ordinary shares upon or prior to the completion of this offering at the exercise price of US$2.10 per ordinary share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. The proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Series A preferred shares were used to finance the transfer to us of the 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli held by Yingli Group.
Mandatory Redeemable Bonds and Mandatory Convertible Bonds
      On November 13, 2006, we issued interest-bearing mandatory redeemable bonds and mandatory convertible bonds to Yingli Power, our controlling shareholder, in the aggregate principal amount of US$85 million and at an issue price equal to 98.75% of such aggregate principal amount. The mandatory redeemable bonds in the principal amount of US$38 million are required to be redeemed at their principal amount upon the completion of this offering. The mandatory convertible bonds with the principal amount of US$47 million are automatically convertible into our equity interest at an aggregate value equal to the value of a 3.73% effective equity interest in Tianwei Yingli at the time of the conversion. The net proceeds from these bonds are required to be used (i) up to US$62 million, to increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli from 53.98% to 62.13%, (ii) up to US$17 million, to further increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, (iii) US$4.5 million to be held in a restricted account to be used to service the first three interest payments falling due under these bonds and (iv) the remaining proceeds for general corporate purpose and working capital. Both of these bonds carry a floating interest rate tied to the British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Date plus 2.00% (up to and including August 16, 2007) or 4.00% (after August 16, 2007). Interest is payable quarterly. Under the indenture governing these bonds, we are subject to a number of covenants, such as the maintenance of certain financial ratios for quarterly periods starting the quarter ending June 30, 2007, restrictions on granting collateral, disposals of existing assets, the making of payments to shareholders and affiliates and the making of investments. We have also pledged 62.13% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli representing our then existing equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, and our other tangible and intangible assets as collateral for our obligations under these bonds.
      In connection with the issuance of these bonds, on November 13, 2006, our controlling shareholder, Yingli Power, issued to Deutsche Bank AG, Singapore Branch, floating rate notes in the aggregate principal amount of US$85 million and at an issue price equal to 98.75% of such aggregate principal amount. The floating rate notes consist of US$55 million mandatory redeemable notes and US$30 million mandatory exchangeable notes exchangeable into equity interests in us at an aggregate value substantially equal to the value of a 3.73% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli at the time of the conversion, the terms of which (other than the allocation of the principal amounts between the redeemable and convertible or exchangeable notes) are substantially similar to the terms of the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds issued by us to Yingli Power. Yingli Power used the proceeds from the issuance of the floating rate notes to subscribe for the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds issued by us. Yingli Power pledged to Deutsche Bank AG, Singapore Branch all of its then existing equity interest in us and its other tangible and intangible asset as collateral for its obligations under these floating rate notes.

      The following chart depicts the schematics of the mandatory redeemable and convertible bonds issued by Yingli Green Energy to Yingli Power and the mandatory redeemable and exchangeable notes issued by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG.
(CHART)
      These offerings were structured as a two-step transaction for a number of legal considerations and commercial arrangements between the relevant parties. The following provides further background.
      In order to facilitate the offshore listing of the business of Tianwei Yingli, Mr. Miao incorporated Yingli Green Energy in August 2006. The subsequent step was to transfer the equity interest in Tianwei Yingli held by Yingli Group, which is controlled by Mr. Miao, to Yingli Green Energy. However, under relevant PRC regulations, any cross-border transfer of equity interest ownership has to be paid in cash unless otherwise approved by several PRC governmental authorities, including the PRC Ministry of Commerce and State Administration of Foreign Exchange. Obtaining such approval is a lengthy, cumbersome and unpredictable process. Yingli Group, a PRC entity, could not make a non-cash contribution to Yingli Green Energy, an offshore entity, of Yingli Group’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli without going through such cumbersome approval process. Therefore, in order to secure cash funding required for the transfer of Yingli Group’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, Yingli Green Energy engaged in a Series A preferred equity financing, the proceeds from which was US$17 million and was used for the foregoing purpose.
      However, while the Series A investor agreed to such use of proceeds as documented in the definitive agreements for the Series A preferred equity financing, the Series A investor reached an informal understanding with Mr. Miao that Yingli Green Energy would seek a third-party financing, the proceeds from which would be used to increase Yingli Green Energy’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli by way of capital contribution. Such understanding was one of the reasons for the issuance of the notes by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG. The key difference between the mandatory redeemable and convertible bonds issued by Yingli Green Energy to Yingli Power and the mandatory redeemable and exchangeable notes issued by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG is the respective amounts of the two tranches. Specifically, the bonds issued to Yingli Power consist of a redeemable tranche in the principal amount of US$38 million and a convertible tranche in the principal amount of US$47 million, whereas the notes issued to Deutsche Bank AG consist of a redeemable tranche in the principal amount of US$55 million and an exchangeable tranche in the principal amount of US$30 million, which resulted in a difference of US$17 million in principal amount between the US$47 million convertible tranche of the bonds issued to Yingli Power and the US$30 million exchangeable tranche of the notes issued to Deutsche Bank AG. However, notwithstanding the difference in the underlying principal amounts, the convertible tranche of the bonds issued to Yingli Power and the exchangeable tranche

145


Table of Contents

of the notes issued to Deutsche Bank AG are convertible or exchangeable into the same number of Yingli Green Energy’s ordinary shares, namely, an amount that would be equivalent to a 3.73% effective equity interest in Tianwei Yingli at the time of the conversion or exchange. Accordingly, the transaction was structured so that upon the mandatory redemption and conversion of the bonds issued by Yingli Green Energy to Yingli Power, and the mandatory redemption and exchange of the notes issued by Yingli Power to Deutsche Bank AG, Yingli Power would contribute US$17 million to Yingli Green Energy using its own funds. Yingli Power was not paid any additional consideration for the above transaction, except for the indirect benefit from Yingli Green Energy’s increasing its equity ownership in Tianwei Yingli as a result of the Series A preferred equity financing. We have been advised by Fangda Partners, our PRC counsel, that the transaction structure discussed above does not violate applicable PRC laws and regulations.
Series B Preferred Shares and Related Warrants
      During the period from December 20, 2006 through January 13, 2007, we issued to Baytree Investments (Mauritius) Pte Ltd., an affiliate of Temasek Holdings Pte Ltd., and 13 other investors, a total of 24,405,377 Series B preferred shares for an aggregate purchase price of US$118 million, or at US$4.835 per share. Of the US$118 million proceeds, US$17 million was received as advance payments and was used to increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to 53.98% from 51%, US$22.6 million (together with US$17 million from portions of the proceeds from the issuance and sale of the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds) will be injected into Tianwei Yingli in the form of a direct equity contribution and the remaining US$78.4 million was injected into Tianwei Yingli in the form of a shareholder loan from us to Tianwei Yingli and would be converted into equity interest in Tianwei Yingli upon completion of the relevant PRC regulatory approvals and related procedural formalities. In addition, during this period, we granted to such investors, other than the three investors who had made advance payments, warrants to purchase 2,112,057 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$0.01 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. On or about March 27, 2007, we further issued to the Series B preferred shareholders (other than the three investors who had made advance payments) additional warrants with terms similar to the previously issued Series B warrants to purchase an aggregate of 688,090 of our ordinary shares in exchange for the early termination of an escrow arrangement with certain restriction, which made the release of a portion of the proceeds, in an amount of US$19.6 million, that were received from the issuance and sale of the Series B preferred shares contingent upon our obtaining the relevant PRC regulatory approvals and completion of related procedural formalities in connection with the conversion of the shareholder loan into equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. This amount of US$19.6 million was injected into Tianwei Yingli upon removal of such restriction in the form of entrusted loan from us to satisfy Tianwei Yingli’s working capital requirement. All outstanding Series B preferred shares are automatically convertible into our ordinary shares upon the completion of this offering at a conversion ratio of one-to -one, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions.
      All outstanding warrants issued in connection with the Series B preferred shares are exercisable into our ordinary shares after April 30, 2007 or such later date, as selected by Baytree Investments, but upon or prior to the earlier of the completion of this offering and the conversion of the shareholder loan into equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Upon conversion of the shareholder loan, whether prior or subsequent to our initial public offering, any unexercised warrants will be automatically cancelled, and the holders of the ordinary shares into which any warrants have been exercised are obligated to return such shares to us for cancellation or pay us an amount to be mutually determined between us and such shareholder.
Capital Contributions to Tianwei Yingli
      On October 10, 2006, we amended the joint venture contract with Tianwei Baobian, holder of a minority equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, our principal operating entity, to make an equity contribution of US$17 million to Tianwei Yingli. The equity contribution was consummated on November 20, 2006, which increased our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to 53.98% from 51%. This equity contribution was funded with advance payments in an aggregate amount of US$17 million from three of our Series B preferred shareholders described below.

      On November 13, 2006, we further amended the joint venture contract with Tianwei Baobian to make an additional equity contribution of US$62 million to Tianwei Yingli. The equity contribution was consummated on December 18, 2006 and was funded with proceeds from the issuance of the mandatory convertible bonds and the mandatory redeemable bonds. This equity contribution increased our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to 62.13% from 53.98%.
      On December 18, 2006, we further amended the joint venture contract with Tianwei Baobian to make an additional equity contribution of US$118 million to Tianwei Yingli. Of the aggregate proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Series B preferred shares, US$17 million, which was received as advance payments, was used to increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to 53.98% from 51%, US$22.6 million (together with US$17 million from portions of the proceeds from the issuance and sale of the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds) will be injected into Tianwei Yingli in the form of a direct equity contribution upon the completion of relevant PRC registration procedures, and the remaining US$78.4 million was injected into Tianwei Yingli in the form of a shareholder loan from us to Tianwei Yingli which will be converted into equity interest in Tianwei Yingli upon obtaining approval from the SAFE, Baoding Branch. Upon the completion of relevant PRC registration procedures for the direct equity contribution and the conversion of the shareholder loan into equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, which would result in the additional equity contribution of an aggregate amount of US$118 million to Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital, our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli would increase to 70.11% from 62.13%.
China Sunshine Warrant
      In connection with a convertible loan to Tianwei Yingli from China Foreign Economic and Trade & Investment Co., Ltd., or FOTIC, a trust and investment company established in China, FOTIC acted as a nominee for certain third-party individuals. This convertible loan was made on May 17, 2006. Under a repayment and termination agreement dated December 29, 2006 among Tianwei Yingli, FOTIC, China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd., or China Sunshine, a British Virgin Islands investment holding company, and us, Tianwei Yingli repaid the convertible loan in the principal amount of RMB 85,635,000 plus accrued interest of RMB 4,281,750 on December 29, 2006. As a condition of repayment, under the repayment and termination agreement, we issued on December 29, 2006 to China Sunshine a warrant to purchase 2,068,252 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$4.835 per share. On February 2, 2007, China Sunshine fully exercised this warrant at an exercise price per share of US$4.835 and purchased 2,068,252 of our ordinary shares.
      The issuance of the warrant was a condition of repayment of the referenced convertible loan due to a number of legal considerations and business arrangements between relevant parties. The parties to the convertible loan understood that at the time the convertible loan was made, the lenders’ intention was to exercise the conversion right under the convertible loan for an equity interest in an offshore listing vehicle for Tianwei Yingli to be listed on an overseas stock exchange. However, after the convertible loan was made, the parties to the loan agreement became aware of certain PRC legal and regulatory considerations which cast some uncertainties into the enforceability and legality under PRC laws of the conversion of the loan, which is RMB-denominated. Specifically, the original transaction contemplated the exercise by certain third party individuals or a PRC entity, namely FOTIC as the nominee for the third party individuals, of a conversion right under a loan agreement with another PRC entity, namely Tianwei Yingli, for an equity interest in an offshore entity that is the controlling shareholder, namely Yingli Green Energy, of the second PRC entity, namely Tianwei Yingli, which was a relatively novel arrangement in the PRC for which the parties could not find sufficient precedents or clear legal authority to establish the legality of such arrangement. Accordingly, in order to reduce the potential legal and/or regulatory uncertainties, Yingli Green Energy agreed to repay the debt and also agreed to the lenders’ designation of China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd., an entity incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and unrelated to the lenders, as the holder of the conversion right, which in the final arrangement took the form of a warrant.
      The inclusion of the warrant as a condition to repayment of the loan also served the business interests of both Yingli Green Energy and the lenders. The arrangements that the parties agreed upon were that (i) Yingli

147


Table of Contents

Green Energy would repay the loan in full, including the accrued interest, (ii) Yingli Green Energy would issue a warrant to the lenders’ designated entity, China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd., and such warrant would be exercisable into Yingli Green Energy’s equity interest that would be substantially equal to the principal amount of the loan, and (iii) to the extent China Sunshine exercises the warrant, the majority of the proceeds from the repayment would effectively be returned to Yingli Green Energy in the form of the exercise price paid by China Sunshine (which was US$4.835 per share, or the share price paid by the investors in Yingli Green Energy’s Series B preferred shares), and (iv) China Sunshine would have a reasonably short period of time (which was fixed at 45 days under the repayment agreement) to exercise the warrant. The repayment agreement dated December 29, 2006 reflected the foregoing arrangements. The above arrangement helped eliminate a potential liquidity risk associated with an immediate loan repayment for Yingli Green Energy while allowing the lenders to designate its conversion right to China Sunshine.
Employment Agreements
      We have entered into employment agreements with all of our executive officers. Under these agreements, each of our executive officers is employed for a specified time period. We may terminate his or her employment for cause at any time, with prior written notice, for certain acts of the executive officer, including but not limited to a conviction to a felony, or willful gross misconduct by the executive officer in connection with his or her employment, and in each case if such acts have resulted in material and demonstrable financial harm to us. An executive officer may, with prior written notice, terminate his or her employment at any time for any material breach of the employment agreement by us that is not remedied promptly after receiving the remedy request from the employee. Furthermore, either party may terminate the employment agreement at any time without cause upon advance written notice to the other party. Upon termination, the executive officer is generally entitled to a severance pay of at least one month’s salary.
      Each executive officer has agreed to hold, both during and subsequent to the terms of his or her agreement, in confidence and not to use, except in pursuance of his or her duties in connection with the employment, any of our confidential information, technological secrets, commercial secrets and know-how. Our executive officers have also agreed to disclose to us all inventions, designs and techniques resulted from work performed by them, and to assign us all right, title and interest of such inventions, designs and techniques.

PRC GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS
      This section sets forth a summary of the most significant regulations or requirements that affect our business activities in China. Certain of these regulations and requirements, such as those relating to tax, equity joint ventures, foreign currency exchange, dividend distribution, regulation of foreign exchange in certain onshore and offshore transactions, and regulations of overseas listings, may affect our shareholders’ right to receive dividends and other distributions from us.
Renewable Energy Law and Other Government Directives
      In February 2005, China enacted its Renewable Energy Law, which became effective on January 1, 2006. The Renewable Energy Law sets forth policies to encourage the development and use of solar energy and other non-fossil energy. The Renewable Energy Law sets forth the national policy to encourage and support the use of solar and other renewable energy and the use of on-grid generation. It also authorizes the relevant pricing authorities to set favorable prices for the purchase of surplus electricity generated by solar and other renewable power generation systems.
      The law sets forth the national policy to encourage the installation and use of solar energy water-heating systems, solar energy heating and cooling systems, PV systems and other solar energy utilization systems. It also provides financial incentives, such as national funding, preferential loans and tax preferences for the development of renewable energy projects. In January 2006, China’s National Development and Reform Commission promulgated two regulations to implement the Renewable Energy Law. These regulations set forth specific measures for setting prices for electricity generated by solar and other renewal power generation companies and in sharing additional expenses occurred. The regulations further allocate the administrative and supervisory authorities among different government agencies at the national and provincial levels and provide responsibilities of electricity grid companies and power generation companies with respect to the implementation of the Renewable Energy Law.
      China’s Ministry of Construction issued a directive in June of 2005, which seeks to expand the use of solar energy in residential and commercial buildings and encourages the increased application of solar energy in townships. In addition, China’s State Council promulgated a directive in June of 2005, which sets forth specific measures to conserve energy resources and encourage exploration, development and use of solar energy in China’s western areas, which are not fully connected to electricity transmission grids, and other rural areas.
Environmental Regulations
      Our manufacturing processes generate noise, waste water, gaseous waste and other industrial waste. We are subject to a variety of governmental regulations related to the storage, use and disposal of hazardous materials. The major environmental regulations applicable to us include the Environmental Protection Law of the PRC, the Law of the PRC on the Prevention and Control of Water Pollution, Implementation Rules of the Law of the PRC on the Prevention and Control of Water Pollution, the Law of the PRC on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution, Implementation Rules of the Law of the PRC on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution, the Law of PRC on the Prevention and Control of Solid Waste Pollution, and the Law of the PRC on the Prevention and Control of Noise Pollution.

Equity Joint Ventures
      Tianwei Yingli, as a Sino-foreign equity joint venture enterprise, is an equity joint venture subject to certain PRC laws and regulations. Equity joint ventures as a form of foreign investment permitted in China, are primarily governed by the following laws and regulations:
  •  The Company Law (1993), as amended;
 
  •  The Law on Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprises (1979), as amended; and
 
  •  Rules on Implementation of the Law on Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprises (1983), as amended.
      An equity joint venture is a limited liability company under PRC law and its establishment is subject to the approval of the Ministry of Commerce or its authorized local counterpart where such equity joint venture is located. The board of directors is the highest authority of an equity joint venture and has the power to decide all matters important to the equity joint venture. Each director is appointed for a term of three years and may serve consecutive terms if appointed by the party by which he or she was originally appointed. Each director may be removed by its appointing party, at any time, with or without cause and may be replaced by a nominee appointed by such party before the expiration of such director’s term of office.
      Resolutions of the board of directors of an equity joint venture involving any matters may be adopted by the affirmative vote of a simple majority of all directors present in person or by proxy at a meeting of the board, except that resolutions involving the following matters require a unanimous approval of all directors present in person or by proxy at the meeting of the board:
  •  amendment to the articles of association of the equity joint venture;
 
  •  merger of the equity joint venture with another entity;
 
  •  division of the equity joint venture;
 
  •  termination or dissolution of the equity joint venture; and
 
  •  increase, reduction or transfer of the registered capital of the equity joint venture.
Tax
      PRC enterprise income tax is calculated based on taxable income determined under PRC accounting principles. In accordance with the FIE Income Tax Law and the related implementing rules, foreign invested enterprises established in the PRC are generally subject to an income tax rate of 33.0% (consisting of 30.0% enterprise income tax and 3.0% local income tax). The FIE Income Tax Law and the related implementing rules provide certain favorable tax treatments to certain foreign invested enterprises. PRC domestic companies are governed by the Enterprise Income Tax Provisional Regulations of the PRC and are generally subject to an enterprise income tax rate of 33.0%, although those enterprises that qualify as “high and new technology enterprises” and are registered and operate in “national high-tech zones” are entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15.0%.
      On March 16, 2007, the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law was enacted, and will become effective on January 1, 2008 when the FIE Income Tax Law and the Enterprise Income Tax Provisional Regulations of the PRC are scheduled to expire. The PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law adopts a uniform tax rate of 25% for all enterprises (including foreign-invested enterprises) and revokes the current tax exemption, reduction and preferential treatments only applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. However, any enterprises established before the promulgation of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law that are entitled to preferential tax treatments for a fixed period will continue to be entitled to such preferential tax treatments until the expiration of such period. If the fixed period has not commenced because of tax losses, it shall be deemed to commence in 2008.

      Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State” would be entitled to a preferential tax rate of 15%, but the PRC Income Tax Law does not define “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State”. Unlike the FIE Income Tax Law, the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law provides that an income tax rate of 20% will normally be applicable to dividends payable to foreign investors and does not specifically exempt withholding tax on dividend payable to foreign investors. Although the PRC Income Tax Law provides for the possibility of withholding tax exemption or reduction for China source income, the details have not been published.
      Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, enterprises established under the laws of foreign countries or regions whose “de facto management bodies” are located within the PRC territory are considered resident enterprises and will normally be subject to the enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on its global income, but the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law does not define the term “de facto management bodies”. Substantially all of our management is currently located in the PRC, and if they remain located in the PRC after the effective date of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, Yingli Green Energy may be considered a resident enterprise and therefore be subject to the enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on its global income.
      Tianwei Yingli, which is registered and operates in a “national high-tech zone” in Baoding, China, qualifies as a “high and new technology enterprise” under the FIE Income Tax Law and as a result has been entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15.0% through 2007. In accordance with the FIE Income Tax Law and the related implementing rules, as a foreign invested enterprise primarily engaged in manufacturing, Tianwei Yingli is entitled to a two-year exemption from the 15.0% enterprise income tax for its first two profitable years following its conversion into a Sino-foreign equity joint venture company, which are currently expected to be 2007 and 2008 for purposes of relevant PRC tax regulations. Tianwei Yingli will thereafter be entitled to a preferential enterprise income tax rate of 7.5% for the succeeding three years, or until 2011. Yingli Green Energy would also be exempted from the withholding tax on dividends it receives from Tianwei Yingli.
      Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law , Tianwei Yingli will continue to be entitled to the two-year exemption and three-year half reduction preferential treatment for the period from 2007 to 2011 or 2008 to 2012 if it fails to record profits for the year of 2007; therefore, it will be exempted from the enterprise income tax for its first two profitable years following its conversion into a Sino-foreign equity joint venture company, which are currently expected to be 2007 and 2008. If Tianwei Yingli qualifies as a “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State” under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, it will be entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 7.5% from 2009 until 2011 and the preferential income tax rate of 15% will be applicable to Tianwei Yingli starting from 2012. If Tianwei Yingli fails to qualify as a “high and new technology enterprises strongly supported by the State” under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, it will be entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 12.5% from 2009 until 2011 and the standard tax rate of 25% will be applicable to Tianwei Yingli starting from 2012. For risks and uncertainties related to the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, see “Risk Factors  — A newly enacted PRC tax law could increase the enterprise income tax rate applicable to our principal subsidiary in China, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.”
      Pursuant to the Provisional Regulation of China on Value Added Tax and their implementing rules, all entities and individuals that are engaged in the sale of goods, the provision of repairs and replacement services and the importation of goods in China are generally required to pay value added tax at a rate of 17.0% of the gross sales proceeds received, less any deductible value added tax already paid or borne by the taxpayer. In addition, when exporting goods, the exporter is entitled to a portion of or all the refund of value added tax that it has already paid or borne. Tianwei Yingli’s imported raw materials that are used for manufacturing export products and are deposited in bonded warehouses are exempt from import value added tax.

Foreign Currency Exchange
      Foreign currency exchange in China is primarily governed by the following rules:
  •  Foreign Currency Administration Rules (1996), as amended; and
 
  •  Administration Rules of the Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange (1996).
      Under the Foreign Currency Administration Rules, the Renminbi is convertible for current account items, including the distribution of dividends, interest payments, trade- and service-related foreign exchange transactions. Conversion of Renminbi for capital account items, such as direct investment, loan, security investment and repatriation of investment, however, is still subject to the approval of, and/or the registration with, the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE or its local branches.
      Under the Administration Rules of the Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange, foreign-invested enterprises may only buy, sell and/or remit foreign currencies at those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business after providing valid commercial documents and, in the case of capital account item transactions, obtaining approval from the SAFE or its local branches. Capital investments by foreign-invested enterprises outside of China are also subject to limitations, which include approvals by the Ministry of Commerce, the SAFE and the National Reform and Development Commission or their local counterparts.
      Currently, the PRC laws and regulations do not provide clear criteria as to how to obtain the SAFE approval. The SAFE and its local branches have broad discretion as to whether to issue the SAFE approval.
Dividend Distribution
      The principal regulations governing distribution of dividends paid by Sino-foreign equity joint venture enterprises include:
  •  The Company Law (1993), as amended;
 
  •  The Law on Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprises (1979), as amended; and
 
  •  Rules on Implementation of the Law on Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprises (1983), as amended.
      Under these regulations, Sino-foreign equity joint venture enterprises in China may pay dividends only out of their retained earnings, if any, determined in accordance with PRC GAAP. The board of directors of a Sino-foreign equity joint venture enterprise has the discretion to allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to reserve funds, employee bonus and welfare funds and enterprise development funds, which may not be distributed to equity owners as dividends.
Regulation of Foreign Exchange in Certain Onshore and Offshore Transactions
      In October 2005, the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, issued the Notice on Issues Relating to the Administration of Foreign Exchange in Fund-raising and Return Investment Activities of Domestic Residents Conducted via Offshore Special Purpose Companies, or SAFE Notice 75, which became effective as of November 1, 2005, and was further supplemented by an implementing notice issued by the SAFE on November 24, 2005. SAFE Notice 75 suspends the implementation of two prior regulations promulgated in January and April of 2005 by SAFE. SAFE Notice 75 states that Chinese residents, whether natural or legal persons, must register with the relevant local SAFE branch prior to establishing or taking control of an offshore entity established for the purpose of overseas equity financing involving onshore assets or equity interests held by them. The term “Chinese legal person residents” as used in the SAFE Notice 75 refers to those entities with legal person status or other economic organizations established within the territory of China. The term “Chinese natural person residents” as used in the SAFE Notice 75 includes all Chinese citizens and all other natural persons, including foreigners, who habitually reside in China for economic benefit. The SAFE implementing notice of November 24, 2005 further clarifies that the term Chinese natural person residents as used under SAFE Notice 75 refers to those “Chinese natural person residents” defined

152


Table of Contents

under the relevant PRC tax laws and those natural persons who hold any interests in domestic entities which are classified as “domestic-funding” interests.
      Chinese residents are required to complete amended registrations with the local SAFE branch upon (i) injection of equity interests or assets of an onshore enterprise to the offshore entity, or (ii) subsequent overseas equity financing by such offshore entity. Chinese residents are also required to complete amended registrations or filing with the local SAFE branch within 30 days of any material change in the shareholding or capital of the offshore entity, such as changes in share capital, share transfers and long-term equity or debt investments, and providing security. Chinese residents who have already incorporated or gained control of offshore entities that have made onshore investment in China before SAFE Notice 75 was promulgated must register their shareholding in the offshore entities with the local SAFE branch on or before March 31, 2006.
      Under SAFE Notice 75, Chinese residents are further required to repatriate back into China all of their dividends, profits or capital gains obtain from their shareholdings in the offshore entity within 180 days of their receipt of such dividends, profits or capital gains. The registration and filing procedures under SAFE Notice 75 are prerequisites for other approval and registration procedures necessary for capital inflow from the offshore entity, such as inbound investments or shareholders loans, or capital outflow to the offshore entity, such as the payment of profits or dividends, liquidating distributions, equity sale proceeds, or the return of funds upon a capital reduction.
Regulation of Overseas Listings
      On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the PRC Ministry of Commerce, or MOFCOM, the State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, or SASAC, the State Administration for Taxation, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the CSRC, and the SAFE, jointly adopted the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, which became effective on September 8, 2006. This regulation, among other things, has some provisions that purport to require that an offshore SPV formed for listing purposes and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such SPV’s securities on an overseas stock exchange.
      On September 21, the CSRC published on its official website procedures regarding its approval of overseas listings by SPVs. The CSRC approval procedures require the filing of a number of documents with the CSRC and it would probably take several months to complete the approval process if a waiver is not available.
      The application of this new PRC regulation remains unclear with no consensus currently existing among the leading PRC law firms regarding the scope of the applicability of the CSRC approval requirement.
      Our PRC counsel, Fangda Partners, has advised us the following, based on their understanding of the current PRC laws, regulations and rules and the procedures announced on September 21, 2006:
  •  The CSRC has jurisdiction over our offering;
 
  •  Given that we have completed the transfer of the controlling equity interest in Tianwei Yingli from Yingli Group before September 8, 2006, the date on which the new regulation became effective, it is not necessary for us to submit an application to the CSRC to obtain its approval of the listing and subsequent trading of our ADSs on the NYSE; and
 
  •  If an application for CSRC approval is required from us, we have a justifiable basis to request a waiver from the CSRC, if and when such procedures are established to obtain such a waiver.

      A copy of Fangda Partners’ legal opinion regarding this new PRC regulation is filed as an exhibit to our registration statement on Form  F-1, which is available at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
      See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in China — Our failure to obtain the prior approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission of the listing and trading of our ADSs on the NYSE could significantly delay this offering or could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, reputation and trading price of our ADSs, and may also create uncertainties for this offering.”

      If a recognized clearing house (or its nominee(s)) is our shareholder, it may authorize such person or persons as it thinks fit to act as its representative(s) at any meeting or at any meeting of any class of shareholders provided that, if more than one person is so authorized, the authorization shall specify the number and class of shares in respect of which each such person is so authorized. A person authorized pursuant to this provision is deemed to have been duly authorized without further evidence of the facts and be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the recognized clearing house (or its nominee(s)) as if such person was the registered holder of our shares held by that clearing house (or its nominee(s)).
Protection of Minorities
      The Grand Court of the Cayman Islands may, on the application of shareholders holding not less than one-fifth of our shares in issue, appoint an inspector to examine our affairs and to report thereon in a manner as the Grand Court shall direct.
      Any shareholder may petition the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands which may make a winding up order, if the court is of the opinion that it is just and equitable that we should be wound up.
      Claims against us by our shareholders must, as a general rule, be based on the general laws of contract or tort applicable in the Cayman Islands or their individual rights as shareholders as established by our memorandum and articles of association.
      The Cayman Islands courts ordinarily would be expected to follow English case law precedents which permit a minority shareholder to commence a representative action against, or derivative actions in our name to challenge (a) an act which is beyond the power of a company or illegal, (b) an act which constitutes a fraud against the minority and the wrongdoers are themselves in control of us, and (c) an irregularity in the passing of a resolution which requires a qualified (or special) majority.
Pre-emption Rights
      There are no pre-emption rights applicable to the issue of new shares under either Cayman Islands law or our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.
Liquidation Rights
      Subject to any special rights, privileges or restrictions as to the distribution of available surplus assets on liquidation for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares (i) if we are wound up and the assets available for distribution among our shareholders shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the capital paid up at the commencement of the winding up, the excess shall be distributed at equal ranking among those shareholders in proportion to the amount paid up at the commencement of the winding up on the shares held by them, respectively and (ii) if we are wound up and the assets available for distribution among the shareholders as such shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the paid-up capital, those assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the shareholders in proportion to the capital paid up at the commencement of liquidation.

156


Table of Contents

      If we are wound up, the liquidator may with the sanction of our special resolution and any other sanction required by the Companies Law, divide among our shareholders in specie or kind the whole or any part of our assets (whether they shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may, for such purpose, set such value as he deems fair upon any property to be divided as aforesaid and may determine how such division shall be carried out as between the shareholders or different classes of shareholders. The liquidator may, with the like sanction, vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the shareholders as the liquidator, with the like sanction, shall think fit, but so that no shareholder shall be compelled to accept any assets, shares or other securities upon which there is a liability.
Modification of Rights
      Except with respect to share capital (as described below), alterations to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may only be made by special resolution of no less than two-thirds of votes cast at a meeting of our shareholders.
      Subject to the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands, all or any of the special rights attached to shares of any class (unless otherwise provided for by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) may be varied, modified or abrogated with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. The provisions of our amended and restated articles of association relating to general meetings shall apply similarly to every such separate general meeting, but so that (i) the quorum shall be a person or persons together holding (or represented by proxy) not less than one-third in nominal value of the issued shares of that class; (ii) every holder of shares of the class shall be entitled on a poll to one vote for every such share held by such holder; and (iii) any holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy or authorized representative may demand a poll.
      The special rights conferred upon the holders of any class of shares shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided in the rights attaching to or the terms of issue of such shares, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking equally therewith.
Alteration of Capital
      We may from time to time by ordinary resolution:
  •  increase our capital by such sum, to be divided into shares of such amounts, as the resolution shall prescribe;
 
  •  consolidate and divide all or any of our share capital into shares of larger amount than our existing shares;
 
  •  divide our shares into several classes and without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of existing shares, attach to these shares any preferential, deferred, qualified or special rights, privileges, conditions or such restrictions which in the absence of any such determination in a general meeting of our shareholders may be determined by our directors;
 
  •  sub-divide our shares into shares of smaller amount than is fixed by our memorandum and articles of association, subject to the Companies Law; and
 
  •  cancel any shares which at the date of the passing of the resolution have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person, and diminish the amount of our share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled.
      We may, by special resolution, subject to any confirmation or consent required by the Companies Law, reduce our share capital, or any capital redemption reserve in any manner authorized by law.
Transfer of Shares
      Subject to such of the restrictions of our amended and restated articles of association, any of our shareholder may transfer all or any of his or her shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common

157


Table of Contents

form or in or such other form prescribed by the NYSE or in any other form which the directors may approve. Our directors may decline to register any transfer of any share which is not paid up or on which we have a lien. Our directors may also decline to register any transfer of any share unless:
  (a) the instrument of transfer is lodged with us accompanied by the certificate for the ordinary shares to which it relates and such other evidence as the directors may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer;
  (b) the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of share;
  (c) the instrument of transfer is properly stamped (in circumstances where stamping is required);
  (d) in the case of a transfer to joint holders, the number of joint holders to whom the share is to be transferred does not exceed four;
  (e) a fee, if any, of such maximum sum as the NYSE may determine to be payable or such lesser sum as the directors may from time to time require is paid to us in respect thereof.
      If the directors refuse to register a transfer they shall, within two months after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged, send to each of the transferor and the transferee notice of such refusal.
      The registration of transfers may, on notice being given by advertisement in such one or more newspapers or by other means in accordance with the requirements of the NYSE, be suspended and the register closed at such times and for such periods as the directors may from time to time determine, provided, however, that the registration of transfers shall not be suspended nor the register closed for more than 30 days in any year as our directors may determine.
Share Repurchase
      We are empowered by the Companies Law and our amended and restated articles of association to purchase our own shares subject to certain restrictions. Our directors may only exercise this power on our behalf, subject to the Companies Law, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and to any applicable requirements imposed from time to time by the SEC, the NYSE or by any other recognized stock exchange on which our securities are listed.
Dividends
      Subject to the Companies Law, we may declare dividends in any currency to be paid to our shareholders but no dividends shall exceed the amount recommended by our directors. Dividends may be declared and paid out of our profits, realized or unrealized, or from any reserve set aside from profits which our directors determine is no longer needed. Our board of directors may also declare and pay dividends out of the share premium account or any other fund or account which can be authorized for this purpose in accordance with the Companies Law.
      Except in so far as the rights attaching to or the terms of issue of, any share otherwise provides (i) all dividends shall be declared and paid according to the amounts paid up on the shares in respect of which the dividend is paid, but no amount paid up on a share in advance of calls shall be treated for this purpose as paid up on that share; and (ii) all dividends shall be apportioned and paid pro rata according to the amounts paid upon the shares during any portion or portions of the period in respect of which the dividend is paid.
      Our directors may also pay any dividend which is payable on any shares semi-annually or on any other dates, whenever our position, in the opinion of the directors, justifies such payment.
      Our directors may deduct from any dividend or bonus payable to any shareholder all sums of money (if any) presently payable by him to us on account of calls, installments or otherwise.
      No dividend or other monies payable by us on or in respect of any share shall bear interest against us.
      In respect of any dividend proposed to be paid or declared on our share capital, our directors may resolve and direct that; (i) such dividend be satisfied wholly or in part in the form of an allotment of shares

158


Table of Contents

credited as fully paid up, provided that our shareholders entitled thereto will be entitled to elect to receive such dividend (or part thereof if our directors so determine) in cash in lieu of such allotment; or (ii) that the shareholders entitled to such dividend will be entitled to elect to receive an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up in lieu of the whole or such part of the dividend as the directors may think fit. We may also, on the recommendation of our directors, resolve in respect of any particular dividend that, notwithstanding the foregoing, it may be satisfied wholly in the form of an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up without offering any right of shareholders to elect to receive such dividend in cash in lieu of such allotment.
      Any dividend interest or other sum payable in cash to the holder of shares may be paid by check or warrant sent by mail addressed to the holder at his registered address, or addressed to such person and at such addresses as the holder may direct. Every such check or warrant shall, unless the holder or joint holders otherwise direct, be made payable to the order of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the order of the holder whose name stands first on the register in respect of such shares, and shall be sent at his or their risk and payment of the check or warrant by the bank on which it is drawn shall constitute a good discharge to us.
      All dividends unclaimed for one year after having been declared may be invested or otherwise made use of by our board of directors for the benefit of our company until claimed. Any dividend unclaimed after a period of six years from the date of declaration of such dividend may be forfeited by our board of directors and, if so forfeited, shall revert to us.
      Whenever our directors or the shareholders in general meeting have resolved that a dividend be paid or declared, the directors may further resolve that such dividend be satisfied by direct payment or satisfaction wholly or in part by the distribution of specific assets of any kind, and in particular of paid up shares, debentures or warrants to subscribe for our securities or securities of any other company. Where any difficulty arises with regard to such distribution, our directors may settle it as they think expedient. In particular our directors may issue fractional certificates or authorize any person to sell and transfer any fractions or may ignore fractions altogether, and may fix the value for distribution purposes of any such specific assets and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any of our shareholders upon the footing of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of the parties, vest any such specific assets in trustees as may seem expedient to the directors and appoint any person to sign any requisite instruments of transfer and other documents on behalf of a person entitled to the dividend, which appointment shall be effective and binding on our shareholders.
Untraceable Shareholders
      We are entitled to sell any share of a shareholder who is untraceable, provided that:
  (i) all checks or warrants in respect of dividends of such shares, not being less than three in number, for any sums payable in cash to the holder of such shares have remained uncashed for a period of 12 years prior to the publication of the advertisement and during the three months referred to in paragraph (3) below;
 
  (ii) we have not during that time received any indication of the whereabouts or existence of the shareholder or person entitled to such shares by death, bankruptcy or operation of law; and
 
  (iii) we have caused an advertisement to be published in newspapers in the manner stipulated by our amended and restated articles of association, giving notice of our intention to sell these shares, and a period of three months has elapsed since such advertisement and NYSE has been notified of such intention.
      The net proceeds of any such sale shall belong to us and when we receive these net proceeds we shall become indebted to the former shareholder for an amount equal to such net proceeds.

Board of Directors
      General
      We are managed by a board of directors which must consist of not less than two members. Any director on our board may be removed by way of an ordinary resolution of shareholders. Any vacancies on our board of directors or additions to the existing board of directors can be filled by way of an ordinary resolution of shareholders or by the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the remaining directors. The directors may at any time appoint any person as a director to fill a vacancy or as an addition to the existing board, but any director so appointed by the board of directors shall hold office only until the next following annual general meeting of our Company and shall then be eligible for re-election. Other than the chairperson of our board who is not required to retire, one-third of the rest of our directors who were appointed by shareholders at a general meeting are subject to retirement from office by rotation at each general meeting. All our directors who were appointed by our board must retire at the next annual general meeting. Retiring directors are eligible for re-election.
      Meetings of the board of directors may be convened at any time deemed necessary by any members of the board of directors. Advance notice of a meeting is not required if all the directors are present or represented at the meeting concerned and consent to the holding of such meeting.
      A meeting of the board of directors will be competent to make lawful and binding decisions if any two shareholders of the board of directors are present or represented. At any meeting of the directors, each director, be it by his presence or by his alternate, is entitled to one vote.
      Questions arising at a meeting of the board of directors are required to be decided by simple majority votes of the members of the board of directors present or represented at the meeting. In the case of a tie vote, the chairperson of the meeting shall have a second or deciding vote. Our board of directors may also pass resolutions without a meeting by unanimous written consent.
      Borrowing powers
      Our directors may exercise all the powers to raise or borrow money, to mortgage or charge all or any part of our undertaking, property and assets (present and future) and uncalled capital and, subject to the Companies Law, to issue debentures, bonds and other securities, whether outright or as collateral security for any debt, liability or obligation of ours or of any third party.
Inspection of Books and Records
      Holders of our shares will have no general right under Cayman Islands law to inspect or obtain copies of our list of shareholders or our corporate records. However, we will provide our shareholders with annual audited financial statements. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”
Exempted Company
      We are an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law. The Companies Law in the Cayman Islands distinguishes between ordinary resident companies and exempted companies. Any company that is registered in the Cayman Islands but conducts business mainly outside of the Cayman Islands may apply to be registered as an exempted company. The requirements for an exempted company are essentially the same as for an ordinary company except for the exemptions and privileges listed below:
  •  an exempted company does not have to file an annual return of its shareholders with the Registrar of Companies;
 
  •  an exempted company’s register of members is not open to inspection;
 
  •  an exempted company does not have to hold an annual general meeting;
 
  •  an exempted company may issue no par value, negotiable or bearer shares;

160


Table of Contents

  •  an exempted company may obtain an undertaking against the imposition of any future taxation (such undertakings are usually given for 20 years in the first instance);
 
  •  an exempted company may register by way of continuation in another jurisdiction and be deregistered in the Cayman Islands;
 
  •  an exempted company may register as a limited duration company; and
 
  •  an exempted company may register as a segregated portfolio company.
      “Limited liability” means that the liability of each shareholder is limited to the amount unpaid by the shareholder on our shares. Upon the closing of this offering, we will be subject to reporting and other informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as applicable to foreign private issuers. We currently intend to comply with the NYSE rules, in lieu of following home country practice after the closing of this offering. The NYSE rules require that every company listed on the NYSE hold an annual general meeting of shareholders. In addition, our proposed amended and restated articles of association, which, upon receiving the requisite shareholder approval, is expected to become effective immediately upon the closing of this offering, will allow directors or shareholders to call special shareholder meetings pursuant to the procedures set forth in the articles. We believe that the differences with respect to being a Cayman Islands exempted company as opposed to a Delaware corporation do not pose additional material risks to investors, other than the risks described under “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our ADSs and This Offering.”
Differences in Corporate Law
      The Companies Law is modeled after similar law in England but does not necessarily always follow recent changes in English law. In addition, the Companies Law differs from laws applicable to United States corporations and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of the significant differences between the provisions of the Companies Law applicable to us and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the United States and their shareholders.
Mergers and Similar Arrangements
      Cayman Islands law does not provide for mergers as that expression is understood under United States corporate law. However, there are statutory provisions that facilitate the reconstruction and amalgamation of companies, provided that the arrangement is approved by a majority in number of each class of shareholders and creditors with whom the arrangement is to be made, and who must in addition represent three-fourths in value of each such class of shareholders or creditors, as the case may be, that are present and voting either in person or by proxy at a meeting, or meetings, convened for that purpose. The convening of the meetings and subsequently the arrangement must be sanctioned by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. While a dissenting shareholder has the right to express to the court the view that the transaction ought not to be approved, the court can be expected to approve the arrangement if it determines that:
  •  the Company is not proposing to act illegally or beyond its power and the statutory provisions as to the due majority vote have been complied with;
 
  •  the shareholders have been fairly represented at the meeting in question;
 
  •  the arrangement is such that a businessman would reasonably approve; and
 
  •  the arrangement is not one that would more properly be sanctioned under some other provision of the Companies Law or that would amount to a “fraud on minority.”
      When a take-over offer is made and accepted by holders of 90.0% of the shares (within four months), the offeror may, within a two month period, require the holders of the remaining shares to transfer such shares on the terms of the offer. An objection can be made to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands but this is unlikely to succeed unless there is evidence of fraud, bad faith or collusion.

161


Table of Contents

      If the arrangement and reconstruction is thus approved, the dissenting shareholder would have no rights comparable to appraisal rights, which would otherwise ordinarily be available to dissenting shareholders of United States corporations, providing rights to receive payment in cash for the judicially determined value of the shares.
Shareholders’ Suits
      We are not aware of any reported class action or derivative action having been brought in a Cayman Islands court. In principle, we will normally be the proper plaintiff and a derivative action may not be brought by a minority shareholder. However, based on English authorities, which would likely be of persuasive authority in the Cayman Islands, there are exceptions to the foregoing principle, including when:
  •  a company acts or proposes to act illegally or beyond its power;
 
  •  the act complained of, although not beyond the power of the company, could be effected duly if authorized by more than a simple majority vote that has not been obtained; and
 
  •  those who control the company are perpetrating a “fraud on the minority.”
Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitation of Liability
      Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, which will become effective upon the closing of this offering, permit indemnification of officers, directors and auditors for losses, damages, costs and expenses incurred in their capacities as such unless such losses or damages arise from dishonesty, fraud or default of such directors or officers or auditors. This standard of conduct is generally the same as permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law for a Delaware corporation.
      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling us under the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable as a matter of United States law.
Anti-takeover Provisions in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association
      Cayman Islands law does not prevent companies from adopting a wide range of defensive measures, such as staggered boards, blank check preferred shares, removal of directors only for cause and provisions that restrict the rights of shareholders to call meetings, act by written consent and submit shareholder proposals. We plan to adopt an amended memorandum and articles of incorporation, to be effective immediately prior to this offering, which provides for, among others, a staggered board, blank check preferred stock and provisions that restrict the rights of shareholders to call shareholders’ meetings and eliminate their right to act by written consent.
Directors’ Fiduciary Duties
      Under Delaware corporate law, a director of a Delaware corporation has a fiduciary duty to the corporation and its shareholders. This duty has two components: the duty of care and the duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires that a director act in good faith, with the care that an ordinarily prudent person would exercise under similar circumstances. Under this duty, a director must inform himself of, and disclose to shareholders, all material information reasonably available regarding a significant transaction. The duty of loyalty requires that a director act in a manner he reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation. He must not use his corporate position for personal gain or advantage. This duty prohibits self-dealing by a director and mandates that the best interest of the corporation and its shareholders take precedence over any interest possessed by a director, officer or controlling shareholder and not shared by the

162


Table of Contents

shareholders generally. In general, actions of a director are presumed to have been made on an informed basis, in good faith and in the honest belief that the action taken was in the best interests of the corporation. However, this presumption may be rebutted by evidence of a breach of one of the fiduciary duties. Should such evidence be presented concerning a transaction by a director, a director must prove the procedural fairness of the transaction, and that the transaction was of fair value to the corporation.
      Under Cayman Islands law, at common law, members of a board of directors owe a fiduciary duty to the company to act in good faith in their dealings with or on behalf of the company and exercise their powers and fulfill the duties of their office honestly. This duty has four essential elements:
  a duty to act in good faith in the best interests of the company;
 
  a duty not to personally profit from opportunities that arise from the office of director;
 
  a duty to avoid conflicts of interest; and
 
  a duty to exercise powers for the purpose for which such powers were intended.
      In general, the Companies Law imposes various duties on officers of a company with respect to certain matters of management and administration of the company. The Companies Law contains provisions, which impose default fines on persons who fail to satisfy those requirements. However, in many circumstances, an individual is only liable if he knowingly is guilty of the default or knowingly and willfully authorizes or permits the default.
Shareholder Action by Written Consent
      Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may eliminate the right of shareholders to act by written consent by amendment to its certificate of incorporation. The Companies Law allows a special resolution to be passed in writing if signed by all the shareholders and authorized by the articles of association.
Shareholder Proposals
      Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a shareholder has the right to put any proposal before the annual meeting of shareholders, provided it complies with the notice provisions in the governing documents. A special meeting may be called by the board of directors or any other person authorized to do so in the governing documents, but shareholders may be precluded from calling special meetings.
      The Companies Law does not provide shareholders any right to bring business before a meeting or requisition a general meeting. However, these rights may be provided in articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association allow our shareholders holding not less than 50% of our paid-up voting share capital to requisition a shareholder’s meeting. As an exempted Cayman Islands company, we are not obliged by law to call shareholders’ annual general meetings. However, our amended and restated articles of association require us to call such meetings.
Cumulative Voting
      Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, cumulative voting for elections of directors is not permitted unless the corporation’s certificate of incorporation specifically provides for it. Cumulative voting potentially facilitates the representation of minority shareholders on a board of directors since it permits the minority shareholder to cast all the votes to which the shareholder is entitled on a single director, which increases the shareholder’s voting power with respect to electing such director. While there is nothing under the Cayman Islands law which specifically prohibits or restricts the creation of cumulative voting rights for the election of directors of a Company, our amended and restated articles of association do not provide for cumulative voting. As a result, our shareholders are not afforded any less protections or rights on this issue than shareholders of a Delaware corporation.

163


Table of Contents

Removal of Directors
      Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a director of a corporation with a classified board may be removed only for cause with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Under our amended and restated articles of association, directors may be removed, by way of ordinary resolution of the shareholders.
Transactions with Interested Shareholders
      The Delaware General Corporation Law contains a business combination statute applicable to Delaware public corporations whereby, unless the corporation has specifically elected not to be governed by such statute by amendment to its certificate of incorporation, it is prohibited from engaging in certain business combinations with an “interested shareholder” for three years following the date that such person becomes an interested shareholder. An interested shareholder generally is a person or group who or which owns or owned 15% or more of the target’s outstanding voting stock within the past three years. This has the effect of limiting the ability of a potential acquirer to make a two-tiered bid for the target in which all shareholders would not be treated equally. The statute does not apply if, among other things, prior to the date on which such shareholder becomes an interested shareholder, the board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested shareholder. This encourages any potential acquirer of a Delaware public corporation to negotiate the terms of any acquisition transaction with the target’s board of directors.
      A Cayman company may enter into some business transactions with significant shareholders, including asset sales, in which a significant shareholder receives, or could receive, a financial benefit that is greater than that received, or to be received, by other shareholders with prior approval from the board of directors but without prior approval from the shareholders.
Sale of Assets
      Contrary to the general practice in most corporations incorporated in the United States, Cayman Islands law does not require that shareholders approve sales of all or substantially all of a company’s assets.
Dissolution; Winding up
      Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, unless the board of directors approves the proposal to dissolve, dissolution must be approved by shareholders holding 100% of the total voting power of the corporation. Only if the dissolution is initiated by the board of directors may it be approved by a simple majority of the corporation’s outstanding shares. Delaware law allows a Delaware corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation a supermajority voting requirement in connection with dissolutions initiated by the board. Under the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands and our amended and restated articles of association, our company may be dissolved, liquidated or wound up by the vote of holders of two-thirds of our shares voting at a meeting.
Variation of Rights of Shares
      Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may vary the rights of a class of shares with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares of such class, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. As permitted by Cayman Islands law, our amended and restated articles of association provides that, if our share capital is divided into more than one class of shares, we may vary the rights attached to any class only with the vote at a class meeting of holders of two-thirds of the shares of such class.
Amendment of Governing Documents
      Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation’s governing documents may be amended with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. As permitted by Cayman Islands law, our amended and restated

164


Table of Contents

memorandum and articles of association may only be amended with the vote of holders of two-thirds of our shares voting at a meeting.
Rights of Non-resident or Foreign Shareholders
      There are no limitations imposed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on our shares. In addition, there are no provisions in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association governing the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed.
History of Securities Issuances
      The following is a summary of our securities issuances during the past three years. See also “Restructuring — Private Equity Investments and Other Financings Following the Restructuring.”
     Ordinary Shares
      On August 7, 2006, we issued a total of 50,000,000 ordinary shares to Yingli Power in connection with our incorporation for an aggregate subscription amount of US$500,000. On September 25, 2006, we issued an additional 9,800,000 ordinary shares to Yingli Power as our sole shareholder for an aggregate subscription amount of US$100,000.
     Series A Preferred Shares and a Warrant
      On September 29, 2006, we issued to Inspiration Partners Limited 8,081,081 Series A preferred shares for an aggregate purchase price of US$17.0 million, or at US$2.10 per share. On September 28, 2006, we also issued to TB Management Ltd., affiliate of Inspiration Partners Limited, a warrant to purchase 678,811 of our ordinary shares for no consideration. The proceeds from the issuance of the Series A preferred shares and the warrant were used to finance the transfer of the 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli that was held by Yingli Group to us.
     Series B Preferred Shares and Warrants
      During the period from December 20, 2006 to January 13, 2007, we issued to Baytree Investments (Mauritius) Pte Ltd., an affiliate of Temasek Holdings Pte Ltd., and 13 other investors a total of 24,405,377 Series B preferred shares for an aggregate purchase price of US$118 million, or at US$4.835 per share. In addition, during the same period, we granted to such investors, other than the three investors who had made advance payments, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,112,057 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$0.01 per share. In addition, on or about March 27, 2007, we further issued to the Series B preferred shareholders (other than the three investors who had made advance payments) additional warrants with terms similar to the previously issued Series B warrants to purchase an aggregate of 688,090 of our ordinary shares in exchange for the early termination of an escrow arrangement with certain restriction, which made the release of a portion of the proceeds in an amount of US$19.6 million, that were received from the issuance and sale of the Series B preferred shares contingent upon our obtaining the relevant PRC regulatory approvals and completion of related procedural formalities in connection with the conversion of the shareholder loan into equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. This amount of US$19.6 million was injected into Tianwei Yingli upon removal of such restriction in the form of entrusted loan from us to satisfy Tianwei Yingli’s working capital requirement. Of US$118 million in aggregate proceeds, US$17 million, which was received as advance payments for the purchase of Series B preferred shares from us, was used to increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to 53.98% from 51%, US$22.6 million (together with US$17 million from portions of the proceeds from the issuance and sale of the mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds) will be injected into Tianwei Yingli in the form of a direct equity contribution upon completion of relevant PRC registration procedures, and the remaining US$78.4 million was injected into Tianwei Yingli in the form of a shareholder loan from us to Tianwei Yingli which will be converted into

equity interest in Tianwei Yingli upon obtaining the approval from the SAFE, Baoding Branch. Upon the completion of relevant PRC registration procedures for the direct equity contribution and obtaining the approval from the SAFE, Baoding Branch for the conversion of the shareholder loan into an equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, which would result in the additional equity contribution of an aggregate amount of US$118 million to Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital, our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli would increase to 70.11% from 62.13%.
     Mandatory Convertible Bonds payable to Yingli Power and Mandatory Redeemable Bonds payable to Yingli Power
      On November 13, 2006, we issued interest-bearing mandatory redeemable bonds and mandatory convertible bonds to Yingli Power in the aggregate principal amount of US$85 million and at an issue price equal to 98.75% of such aggregate principal amount. The mandatory redeemable bonds in the principal amount of US$38 million are required to be redeemed at their principal amount upon the completion of this offering. The mandatory convertible bonds with the principal amount of US$47 million are required to be converted into equity interests in us at an aggregate value equal to the value of a 3.73% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli upon the completion of this offering. The net proceeds from these bonds must be used (i) up to US$62 million, to increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli from 53.98% to 62.13% (which event occured on December 18, 2006), (ii) up to US$17 million, to further increase our equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, (iii) US$4.5 million to be held in a restricted account to be used to service the first three payments falling due under these bonds and (iv) the remaining proceeds for general corporate purpose and working capital.
      On December 29, 2006, we issued to China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd., an investment holding company established in the British Virgin Islands, a warrant to purchase 2,068,252 of our ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$4.835 per share in connection with the repayment and termination of a convertible loan made to Tianwei Yingli on May 17, 2006. China Sunshine Investment Co. Ltd. exercised this warrant in full on February 6, 2007.
Share Options and Restricted Shares
      We adopted the 2006 stock incentive plan in December 2006. We granted options to purchase an aggregate of 610,929 ordinary shares to four executive officers of us in December 2006. In January and April 2007, we granted to DBS Trustees Limited an aggregate of 2,621,060 restricted shares to be held in trust for the benefit of 70 trust participants consisting of nine directors and executive officers of us and Tianwei Yingli and 61 other employees of us and Tianwei Yingli. In May 2007, we granted options to purchase an aggregate of 115,000 ordinary shares to three independent directors and one key employee, subject to the completion of this offering. As of                     , options to purchase                      ordinary shares of our company were outstanding. See “Management — 2006 Stock Incentive Plan.”
Registration Rights
      Under the terms of an amended shareholders agreement with our Series A and Series B preferred shareholders, at any time six months after the closing of our initial public offering, any shareholder(s) holding of record at least 33% of registrable securities then outstanding may, on three occasions only, request us to effect the registration, on a form other than Form F-3, of all or part of the registrable securities then outstanding. Registrable securities are ordinary shares issued or issuable to the holders of our preferred shares or their respective transferees or the holders or transferees of the warrants issued by us.
      In addition, upon our company becoming eligible for using Form  F-3, any holder of registrable securities may request us to effect a registration statement on Form F-3 for a public offering of registrable securities so long as the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public (net of selling expenses) would be at least US$5.0 million and we are entitled to use Form F-3 (or a comparable form) for such offering. Holders of registrable securities may demand a registration on Form F-3 on unlimited occasions, although we are not

166


Table of Contents

obligated to effect more than one such registration in any 12-month period. Under certain circumstances, such demand registration may also include ordinary shares other than registrable securities.
      Holders of registrable securities also have “piggyback” registration rights, which may request us to register all or any part of the registrable securities then held by such holders when we register any of our ordinary shares. If any of the offerings involves an underwriting, the managing underwriter of any such offering has certain rights to limit the number of shares included in such registration. However, the number of registrable securities included in an underwritten public offering subsequent to our initial public offering pursuant to “piggyback” registration rights may not be reduced to less than 35% of the aggregate securities included in such offering. However, the terms of the amended shareholders agreement do not provide for any specific damage, payment or transfer any other consideration to the Series A and B preferred shareholders in the event of non-performance to effect a registration statement.
      We are generally required to bear all of the registration expenses incurred in connection with three demand registrations, unlimited Form F-3 and piggyback registrations, except underwriting discounts and commissions.
      Holders of our warrants are also entitled to the same registration rights as described above with respect to the ordinary shares into which their warrants are exercisable.

DESCRIPTION OF AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES
American Depositary Receipts
      JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as depositary, will issue the ADSs which you will be entitled to receive in this offering. Each ADS will represent an ownership interest in one ordinary share which we will deposit with the custodian, as agent of the depositary, under the deposit agreement among us, the depositary and you as an ADR holder. In the future, each ADS will also represent any securities, cash or other property deposited with the depositary but which it has not distributed directly to you. Unless specifically requested by you, all ADSs will be issued on the books of our depositary in book-entry form and periodic statements will be mailed to you which reflect your ownership interest in such ADSs. In our description, references to American depositary receipts or ADRs shall include the statements you will receive which reflects your ownership of ADSs.
      The depositary’s office is located at 4 New York Plaza, New York, NY 10004. J.P. Morgan Securities Ltd., one of our Series B preferred shareholders, is an affiliate of the depositary.
      You may hold ADSs either directly or indirectly through your broker or other financial institution. If you hold ADSs directly, by having an ADS registered in your name on the books of the depositary, you are an ADR holder. This description assumes you hold your ADSs directly. If you hold the ADSs through your broker or financial institution nominee, you must rely on the procedures of such broker or financial institution to assert the rights of an ADR holder described in this section. You should consult with your broker or financial institution to find out what those procedures are.
      As an ADR holder, we will not treat you as a shareholder of ours and you will not have any shareholder rights. Cayman Island law governs shareholder rights. Because the depositary or its nominee will be the shareholder of record for the shares represented by all outstanding ADSs, shareholder rights rest with such record holder. Your rights are those of an ADR holder. Such rights derive from the terms of the deposit agreement to be entered into among us, the depositary and all registered holders from time to time of ADSs issued thereunder. The obligations of the depositary and its agents are also set out in the deposit agreement. Because the depositary or its nominee will actually be the registered owner of the shares, you must rely on it to exercise the rights of a shareholder on your behalf. The deposit agreement and the ADSs are governed by New York law.
      The following is a summary of the material terms of the deposit agreement. For more complete information, you should read the entire deposit agreement and the form of ADR which contains the terms of your ADSs. You can read a copy of the deposit agreement which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. You may also obtain a copy of the deposit agreement at the SEC’s public reference room which is located at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549. You may obtain information on the operation of the public reference room by calling the SEC at 1-800 -732-0330. You may also find the registration statement and the attached deposit agreement from the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
Share Dividends and Other Distributions
How will you receive dividends and other distributions on the shares underlying your ADSs?
      We may make various types of distributions with respect to our securities. The depositary has agreed to pay to you the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on shares or other deposited securities, after converting any cash received into U.S. dollars and, in all cases, making any necessary deductions provided for in the deposit agreement. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of underlying securities that your ADSs represent.
      Except as stated below, to the extent the depositary is legally permitted, it will deliver such distributions to ADR holders in proportion to their interests in the following manner:
  •  Cash. The depositary will distribute any U.S. dollars available to it resulting from a cash dividend or other cash distribution or the net proceeds of sales of any other distribution or portion thereof (to the

168


Table of Contents

  extent applicable), on an averaged or other practicable basis, subject to (i) appropriate adjustments for taxes withheld, (ii) such distribution being impermissible or impracticable with respect to certain registered holders, and (iii) deduction of the depositary’s expenses in (1) converting any foreign currency to U.S. dollars to the extent that it determines that such conversion may be made on a reasonable basis, (2) transferring foreign currency or U.S. dollars to the United States by such means as the depositary may determine to the extent that it determines that such transfer may be made on a reasonable basis, (3) obtaining any approval or license of any governmental authority required for such conversion or transfer, which is obtainable at a reasonable cost and within a reasonable time and (4) making any sale by public or private means in any commercially reasonable manner. If exchange rates fluctuate during a time when the depositary cannot convert a foreign currency, you may lose some or all of the value of the distribution.
 
  •  Shares. In the case of a distribution in shares, the depositary will issue additional ADRs to evidence the number of ADSs representing such shares. Only whole ADSs will be issued. Any shares which would result in fractional ADSs will be sold and the net proceeds will be distributed in the same manner as cash to the ADR holders entitled thereto.
 
  •  Rights to receive additional shares. In the case of a distribution of rights to subscribe for additional shares or other rights, if we provide satisfactory evidence that the depositary may lawfully distribute such rights, the depositary will distribute warrants or other instruments representing such rights. However, if we do not furnish such evidence, the depositary may:

  •  sell such rights if practicable and distribute the net proceeds as cash; or
 
  •  if it is not practicable to sell such rights, do nothing and allow such rights to lapse, in which case ADR holders will receive nothing.
  We have no obligation to file a registration statement under the Securities Act in order to make any rights available to ADR holders.
  •  Other Distributions. In the case of a distribution of securities or property other than those described above, the depositary may either (i) distribute such securities or property in any manner it deems equitable and practicable or (ii) to the extent the depositary deems distribution of such securities or property not to be equitable and practicable, sell such securities or property and distribute any net proceeds in the same way it distributes cash.
      If the depositary determines that any distribution described above is not practicable with respect to any specific ADR holder, the depositary may choose any practicable method of distribution for such ADR holder, including the distribution of foreign currency, securities or property, or it may retain such items, without paying interest on or investing them, on behalf of the ADR holder as deposited securities, in which case the ADSs will also represent the retained items.
      Any U.S. dollars will be distributed by checks drawn on a bank in the United States for whole dollars and cents. Fractional cents will be withheld without liability for interest thereon and dealt with by the depositary in accordance with its then current practices.
      The depositary is not responsible if it decides that it is unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to any ADR holders.
      There can be no assurance that the depositary will be able to convert any currency at a specified exchange rate or sell any property, rights, shares or other securities at a specified price, nor that any of such transactions can be completed within a specified time period.
Deposit, Withdrawal and Cancellation
How does the depositary issue ADSs?
      The depositary will issue ADSs if you or your broker deposits shares or evidence of rights to receive shares with the custodian and pay the fees and expenses owing to the depositary in connection with such

169


Table of Contents

issuance. In the case of the ADSs to be issued under this prospectus, we will arrange with the underwriters named herein to deposit such shares.
      Shares deposited in the future with the custodian must be accompanied by certain delivery documentation, including instruments showing that such shares have been properly transferred or endorsed to the person on whose behalf the deposit is being made.
      The custodian will hold all deposited shares (including those being deposited by or on our behalf in connection with the offering to which this prospectus relates) for the account of the depositary. ADR holders thus have no direct ownership interest in the shares and only have such rights as are contained in the deposit agreement. The custodian will also hold any additional securities, property and cash received on or in substitution for the deposited shares. The deposited shares and any such additional items are referred to as “deposited securities”.
      Upon each deposit of shares, receipt of related delivery documentation and compliance with the other provisions of the deposit agreement, including the payment of the fees and charges of the depositary and any taxes or other fees or charges owing, the depositary will issue an ADR or ADRs in the name or upon the order of the person entitled thereto evidencing the number of ADSs to which such person is entitled. All of the ADSs issued will, unless specifically requested to the contrary, be part of the depositary’s direct registration system, and a registered holder will receive periodic statements from the depositary which will show the number of ADSs registered in such holder’s name. An ADR holder can request that the ADSs not be held through the depositary’s direct registration system and that a certificated ADR be issued.
How do ADR holders cancel an ADS and obtain deposited securities?
      When you turn in your ADSs at the depositary’s office, or when you provide proper instructions and documentation in the case of direct registration ADSs, the depositary will, upon payment of certain applicable fees, charges and taxes, deliver the underlying shares at the custodian’s office or effect delivery by such other means as the depositary deems practicable, including transfer to an account of an accredited financial institution on your behalf. At your risk, expense and request, the depositary may deliver deposited securities at such other place as you may request.
      The depositary may only restrict the withdrawal of deposited securities in connection with:
  •  temporary delays caused by closing our transfer books or those of the depositary or the deposit of shares in connection with voting at a shareholders’ meeting, or the payment of dividends;
 
  •  the payment of fees, taxes and similar charges; or
 
  •  compliance with any U.S. or foreign laws or governmental regulations relating to the ADRs or to the withdrawal of deposited securities.
      This right of withdrawal may not be limited by any other provision of the deposit agreement.
Record Dates
      The depositary may fix record dates for the determination of the ADR holders who will be entitled (or obligated, as the case may be):
  •  to receive a dividend, distribution or rights,
 
  •  to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at a meeting of holders of ordinary shares or other deposited securities, or
 
  •  for the determination of the registered holders who shall be responsible for the fee assessed by the depositary for administration of the ADR program and for any expenses as provided for in the ADR,
 
  •  to receive any notice or to act in respect of other matters,
  all subject to the provisions of the deposit agreement.

Voting Rights
How do you vote?
      If you are an ADR holder and the depositary asks you to provide it with voting instructions, you may instruct the depositary how to exercise the voting rights for the shares which underlie your ADSs. After receiving voting materials from us, the depositary will notify the ADR holders of any shareholder meeting or solicitation of consents or proxies. This notice will state such information as contained in the voting materials and describe how you may instruct the depositary to exercise the voting rights for the shares which underlie your ADSs and will include instructions for giving a discretionary proxy to a person designated by us. For instructions to be valid, the depositary must receive them in the manner and on or before the date specified. The depositary will try, as far as is practical, subject to the provisions of and governing the underlying shares or other deposited securities, to vote or to have its agents vote the shares or other deposited securities as you instruct. The depositary will only vote or attempt to vote as you instruct. The depositary will not itself exercise any voting discretion. Furthermore, neither the depositary nor its agents are responsible for any failure to carry out any voting instructions, for the manner in which any vote is cast or for the effect of any vote.
      There is no guarantee that you will receive voting materials in time to instruct the depositary to vote and it is possible that you, or persons who hold their ADSs through brokers, dealers or other third parties, will not have the opportunity to exercise a right to vote.
Reports and Other Communications
Will you be able to view our reports?
      The depositary will make available for inspection by ADR holders any written communications from us which are both received by the custodian or its nominee as a holder of deposited securities and made generally available to the holders of deposited securities. We will furnish these communications in English when so required by any rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
      Additionally, if we make any written communications generally available to holders of our shares, including the depositary or the custodian, and we request the depositary to provide them to ADR holders, the depositary will mail copies of them, or, at its option, English translations or summaries of them to ADR holders.
Fees and Expenses
What fees and expenses will you be responsible for paying?
      ADR holders will be charged a fee for each issuance of ADSs, including issuances resulting from distributions of shares, rights and other property, and for each surrender of ADSs in exchange for deposited securities. The fee in each case is US$5.00 for each 100 ADSs (or any portion thereof) issued or surrendered.
      The following additional charges shall be incurred by the ADR holders, by any party depositing or withdrawing shares or by any party surrendering ADRs or to whom ADRs are issued (including, without limitation, issuance pursuant to a stock dividend or stock split declared by the Company or an exchange of stock regarding the ADRs or the deposited securities or a distribution of ADRs), whichever is applicable:
  •  to the extent not prohibited by the rules of any stock exchange or interdealer quotation system upon which the ADSs are traded, a fee of US$1.50 per ADR or ADRs for transfers of certificated or direct registration ADRs;
 
  •  a fee of US$          or less per ADS (or portion thereof) for any cash distribution made pursuant to the deposit agreement;
 
  •  a fee of US$           per ADS (or portion thereof) per calendar year for services performed by the depositary in administering our ADR program (which fee may be charged on a periodic basis during each calendar year (with the aggregate of such fees not to exceed the amount set forth above) and

171


Table of Contents

  shall be assessed against holders of ADRs as of the record date or record dates set by the depositary during each calendar year and shall be payable in the manner described in the next succeeding provision);
 
  •  any other charge payable by any of the depositary, any of the depositary’s agents, including, without limitation, the custodian, or the agents of the depositary’s agents in connection with the servicing of our shares or other deposited securities (which charge shall be assessed against registered holders of our ADRs as of the record date or dates set by the depositary and shall be payable at the sole discretion of the depositary by billing such registered holders or by deducting such charge from one or more cash dividends or other cash distributions);
 
  •  a fee for the distribution of securities (or the sale of securities in connection with a distribution), such fee being in an amount equal to the fee for the execution and delivery of ADSs which would have been charged as a result of the deposit of such securities (treating all such securities as if they were shares) but which securities or the net cash proceeds from the sale thereof are instead distributed by the depositary to those holders entitled thereto;
 
  •  stock transfer or other taxes and other governmental charges;
 
  •  cable, telex and facsimile transmission and delivery charges incurred at your request;
 
  •  transfer or registration fees for the registration of transfer of deposited securities on any applicable register in connection with the deposit or withdrawal of deposited securities;
 
  •  expenses of the depositary in connection with the conversion of foreign currency into U.S. dollars; and
 
  •  such fees and expenses as are incurred by the depositary (including without limitation expenses incurred in connection with compliance with foreign exchange control regulations or any law or regulation relating to foreign investment) in delivery of deposited securities or otherwise in connection with the depositary’s or its custodian’s compliance with applicable laws, rules or regulations.

      We will pay all other charges and expenses of the depositary and any agent of the depositary (except the custodian) pursuant to agreements from time to time between us and the depositary. The fees described above may be amended from time to time.
      Our depositary has agreed to reimburse us for certain expenses we incur that are related to establishment and maintenance of the ADR program, including investor relations expenses and exchange application and listing fees. There are limits on the amount of expenses for which the depositary will reimburse us, but the amount of reimbursement available to us is not related to the amounts of fees the depositary collects from investors. The depositary collects its fees for issuance and cancellation of ADSs directly from investors depositing shares or surrendering ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal or from intermediaries acting for them. The depositary collects fees for making distributions to investors by deducting those fees from the amounts distributed or by selling a portion of distributable property to pay the fees. The depositary may collect its annual fee for depositary services by deduction from cash distributions, or by directly billing investors, or by charging the book-entry system accounts of participants acting for them. The depositary may generally refuse to provide services to any holder until the fees owing by such holder for those services and any other unpaid fees are paid.
Payment of Taxes
      ADR holders must pay any tax or other governmental charge payable by the custodian or the depositary on any ADS or ADR, deposited security or distribution. If an ADR holder owes any tax or other governmental charge, the depositary may (i) deduct the amount thereof from any cash distributions, or (ii) sell deposited securities and deduct the amount owing from the net proceeds of such sale. In either case the ADR holder remains liable for any shortfall. Additionally, if any tax or governmental charge is unpaid, the depositary may also refuse to effect any registration, registration of transfer, split-up or combination of deposited securities or withdrawal of deposited securities (except under limited circumstances mandated by securities regulations). If any tax or governmental charge is required to be withheld on any non-cash

172


Table of Contents

distribution, the depositary may sell the distributed property or securities to pay such taxes and distribute any remaining net proceeds to the ADR holders entitled thereto.
      By holding an ADR or an interest therein, you will be agreeing to indemnify us, the depositary, its custodian and any of our or their respective directors, employees, agents and affiliates against, and hold each of them harmless from, any claims by any governmental authority with respect to taxes, additions to tax, penalties or interest arising out of any refund of taxes, reduced rate of withholding at source or other tax benefit obtained in respect of, or arising out of, your ADSs.
Reclassifications, Recapitalizations and Mergers
      If we take certain actions that affect the deposited securities, including (i) any change in par value, split-up, consolidation, cancellation or other reclassification of deposited securities or (ii) any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, receivership, bankruptcy or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, then the depositary may choose to:
        (1) amend the form of ADR;
 
        (2) distribute additional or amended ADRs;
 
        (3) distribute cash, securities or other property it has received in connection with such actions;
 
        (4) sell any securities or property received and distribute the proceeds as cash; or
 
        (5) none of the above.
If the depositary does not choose any of the above options, any of the cash, securities or other property it receives will constitute part of the deposited securities and each ADS will then represent a proportionate interest in such property.
Amendment and Termination
How may the deposit agreement be amended?
      We may agree with the depositary to amend the deposit agreement and the ADSs without your consent for any reason. ADR holders must be given at least 30 days notice of any amendment that imposes or increases any fees or charges (other than stock transfer or other taxes and other governmental charges, transfer or registration fees, cable, telex or facsimile transmission costs, delivery costs or other such expenses), or prejudices any substantial existing right of ADR holders. If an ADR holder continues to hold an ADR or ADRs after being so notified, such ADR holder is deemed to agree to such amendment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any governmental body or regulatory body should adopt new laws, rules or regulations which would require amendment or supplement of the deposit agreement or the form of ADR to ensure compliance therewith, we and the depositary may amend or supplement the deposit agreement and the ADR at any time in accordance with such changed laws, rules or regulations, which amendment or supplement may take effect before a notice is given or you otherwise receive notice. No amendment, however, will impair your right to surrender your ADSs and receive the underlying securities.
How may the deposit agreement be terminated?
      The depositary may terminate the deposit agreement by giving the ADR holders at least 30 days prior notice, and it must do so at our request. The deposit agreement will be terminated on the removal of the depositary for any reason. After termination, the depositary’s only responsibility will be (i) to deliver deposited securities to ADR holders who surrender their ADRs, and (ii) to hold or sell distributions received on deposited securities. As soon as practicable after the expiration of six months from the termination date, the depositary will sell the deposited securities which remain and hold the net proceeds of such sales, without liability for interest, in trust for the ADR holders who have not yet surrendered their ADRs. After making such sale, the depositary shall have no obligations except to account for such proceeds and other cash. The depositary will not be required to invest such proceeds or pay interest on them.

Limitations on Obligations and Liability to ADR holders
Limits on our obligations and the obligations of the depositary; limits on liability to ADR holders and holders of ADSs
      Prior to the issue, registration, registration of transfer, split-up, combination, or cancellation of any ADRs, or the delivery of any distribution in respect thereof, the depositary and its custodian may require you to pay, provide or deliver:
  •  payment with respect thereto of (i) any stock transfer or other tax or other governmental charge, (ii) any stock transfer or registration fees in effect for the registration of transfers of shares or other deposited securities upon any applicable register and (iii) any applicable fees and expenses described in the deposit agreement;

  •  compliance with such regulations as the depositary may establish consistent with the deposit agreement.
      The deposit agreement expressly limits the obligations and liability of the depositary, us and our respective agents. Neither we nor the depositary nor any such agent will be liable if:
  •  present or future law, rule or regulation of the United States, the Cayman Islands or any other country, or of any governmental or regulatory authority or securities exchange or market or automated quotation system, the provisions of or governing any deposited securities, any present or future provision of our charter, any act of God, war, terrorism or other circumstance beyond our, the depositary’s or our respective agents’ control shall prevent, delay or subject to any civil or criminal penalty any act which the deposit agreement or the ADRs provides shall be done or performed by us, the depositary or our respective agents (including, without limitation, voting);
 
  •  it exercises or fails to exercise discretion under the deposit agreement or the ADR;
 
  •  it performs its obligations without gross negligence or bad faith;
 
  •  it takes any action or refrains from taking any action in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting shares for deposit, any registered holder of ADRs, or any other person believed by it to be competent to give such advice or information; or
 
  •  it relies upon any written notice, request, direction or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.
      Neither the depositary nor its agents have any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any deposited securities or the ADRs. We and our agents shall only be obligated to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any deposited securities or the ADRs, which in our opinion may involve us in expense or liability, if indemnity satisfactory to us against all expense (including fees and disbursements of counsel) and liability is furnished as often as may be required. The depositary and its agents may fully respond to any and all demands or requests for information maintained by or on its behalf in connection with the deposit agreement, any registered holder or holders of ADRs, any ADSs or otherwise to the extent such information is requested or required by or pursuant to any lawful authority, including without limitation laws, rules, regulations, administrative or judicial process, banking, securities or other regulators.

Table of Contents

      The depositary will not be responsible for failing to carry out instructions to vote the deposited securities or for the manner in which the deposited securities are voted or the effect of the vote. In no event shall we, the depositary or any of our respective agents be liable to holders of ADSs or interests therein for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages.
      The depositary may own and deal in deposited securities and in ADSs.
Disclosure of Interest in ADSs
      To the extent that the provisions of or governing any deposited securities may require disclosure of or impose limits on beneficial or other ownership of deposited securities, other shares and other securities and may provide for blocking transfer, voting or other rights to enforce such disclosure or limits, you agree to comply with all such disclosure requirements and ownership limitations and to comply with any reasonable instructions we may provide in respect thereof. We reserve the right to request you to deliver your ADSs for cancellation and withdrawal of the deposited securities so as to permit us to deal with you directly as a holder of deposited securities and, by holding an ADS or an interest therein, you will be agreeing to comply with such instructions.
Requirements for Depositary Actions
      We, the depositary or the custodian may refuse to
  •  issue, register or transfer an ADR or ADRs;
 
  •  effect a split-up or combination of ADRs;
 
  •  deliver distributions on any such ADRs; or
 
  •  permit the withdrawal of deposited securities (unless the deposit agreement provides otherwise), until the following conditions have been met:
  •  the holder has paid all taxes, governmental charges, and fees and expenses as required in the deposit agreement;
 
  •  the holder has provided the depositary with any information it may deem necessary or proper, including, without limitation, proof of identity and the genuineness of any signature; and
 
  •  the holder has complied with such regulations as the depositary may establish under the deposit agreement.
      The depositary may also suspend the issuance of ADSs, the deposit of shares, the registration, transfer, split-up or combination of ADRs, or the withdrawal of deposited securities (unless the deposit agreement provides otherwise), if the register for ADRs or any deposited securities is closed or the depositary decides it is advisable to do so.
Books of Depositary
      The depositary or its agent will maintain a register for the registration, registration of transfer, combination and split-up of ADRs, which register shall include the depositary’s direct registration system. You may inspect such records at such office during regular business hours, but solely for the purpose of communicating with other holders in the interest of business matters relating to the deposit agreement. Such register may be closed from time to time, when deemed expedient by the depositary.
      The depositary will maintain facilities to record and process the issuance, cancellation, combination, split-up and transfer of ADRs. These facilities may be closed from time to time, to the extent not prohibited by law.

Pre-release of ADSs
      The depositary may issue ADSs prior to the deposit with the custodian of shares (or rights to receive shares). This is called a pre-release of the ADS. A pre-release is closed out as soon as the underlying shares (or rights to receive shares from us or from any registrar, transfer agent or other entity recording share ownership or transactions) are delivered to the depositary. The depositary may pre-release ADSs only if:
  •  the depositary has received collateral for the full market value of the pre-released ADSs (marked to market daily); and
 
  •  each recipient of pre-released ADSs agrees in writing that he or she
  •  owns the underlying shares,
 
  •  assigns all rights in such shares to the depositary,
 
  •  holds such shares for the account of the depositary and
 
  •  will deliver such shares to the custodian as soon as practicable, and promptly if the depositary so demands.
In general, the number of pre-released ADSs will not evidence more than 30% of all ADSs outstanding at any given time (excluding those evidenced by pre-released ADSs). However, the depositary may change or disregard such limit from time to time as it deems appropriate. The depositary may retain for its own account any earnings on collateral for pre-released ADSs and its charges for issuance thereof.
Appointment
      In the deposit agreement, each holder and each person holding an interest in ADSs, upon acceptance of any ADSs (or any interest therein) issued in accordance with the terms and conditions of the deposit agreement will be deemed for all purposes to:
  •  be a party to and bound by the terms of the deposit agreement and the applicable ADR or ADRs, and
 
  •  appoint the depositary its attorney-in -fact, with full power to delegate, to act on its behalf and to take any and all actions contemplated in the deposit agreement and the applicable ADR or ADRs, to adopt any and all procedures necessary to comply with applicable laws and to take such action as the depositary in its sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of the deposit agreement and the applicable ADR and ADRs, the taking of such actions to be the conclusive determinant of the necessity and appropriateness thereof.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
      Upon completion of this offering, we will have                      outstanding ADSs representing approximately           % of our ordinary shares in issue. All of the ADSs sold in this offering and the ordinary shares they represent will be freely transferable by persons other than our “affiliates” without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Sales or perceived sales of substantial amounts of our ADSs in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our ADSs. Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our ordinary shares or the ADSs, and while application has been made for the ADSs to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange, we cannot assure you that a regular trading market for our ADSs will develop. Our ordinary shares will not be listed on any exchange or quoted for trading on any over-the -counter trading system. We do not expect that a trading market will develop for our ordinary shares not represented by the ADSs.
Lock-up Agreements
      Each of the selling shareholders, our directors, executive officers and our other existing shareholders has agreed, subject to some exceptions, not to transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of our ordinary shares, in the form of ADSs or otherwise, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for our ordinary shares, in the form of ADSs or otherwise, for a period of 180 days after the date this prospectus becomes effective. After the expiration of the 180-day period, the ordinary shares or ADSs held by the selling shareholders, our directors, executive officers or our other existing shareholders may be sold subject to the restrictions under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or by means of registered public offerings.
      In addition, certain of our option holders have agreed with us that the ordinary shares they receive when they exercise their share options will be subject to the foregoing restrictions related to our selling shareholders, directors, executive officers and our other existing shareholders until the later of (i) December 28, 2007, the first anniversary of the grant date, and (ii) the expiration of the aforementioned 180-day restricted period.
      The 180-day restricted period is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. If (1) during the last 17 days of the 180-day restricted period, we release an earnings results or material news or a material event relating to us occurs; or (2) prior to the expiration of the 180-day restricted period, we announce that we will release earnings results during the 16-day period following the last day of the 180-day period, the restrictions will continue to apply until the expiration of the 180-day period beginning on the release of the earnings results or the occurrence of the material news or material event, as applicable, unless, with respect to the restricted period applicable to us and our selling shareholders, directors, executive officers and certain other existing shareholders, such extension is waived by the representatives on behalf of the underwriters.
Rule 144
      In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus, a person who has beneficially owned “restricted securities” for at least one year would be entitled to sell in the United States, within any three-month period, a number of shares that is not more than the greater of:
  •  1.0% of the number of our ordinary shares then outstanding which will equal approximately                      ordinary shares immediately after this offering; or
 
  •  the average weekly reported trading volume of our ADSs on the NYSE during the four calendar weeks proceeding the date on which a notice of the sale on Form 144 is filed with the SEC by such person.
      Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner-of -sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of current public information about us. However, these shares would remain subject to lock-up arrangements and would only become eligible for sale when the lock-up period expires. Persons who are not our affiliates may be exempt from these restrictions under Rule 144(k) discussed below.

177


Table of Contents

Rule 144(k)
      Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not deemed to have been our affiliate at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the ordinary shares proposed to be sold for at least two years from the later of the date these shares were acquired from us or from our affiliate, including the holding period of any prior owner other than an affiliate, is entitled to sell those shares in the United States immediately following this offering without complying with the manner-of -sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144. However, these shares would remain subject to lock-up arrangements and would only become eligible for sale when the lock-up period expires.
Registration Rights
      Upon completion of this offering, certain holders of our ordinary shares, in the form of ADSs or otherwise, or their transferees will be entitled to request that we register their shares under the Securities Act, following the expiration of the lock-up agreements described above. See “Description of Share Capital — Registration Rights.”

TAXATION
      The following summary of the material Cayman Islands and United States federal income tax consequences of an investment in our ADSs or ordinary shares is based upon laws and relevant interpretations thereof in effect as of the date of this prospectus, all of which are subject to change. This summary does not deal with all possible tax consequences relating to an investment in our ADSs or ordinary shares, such as the tax consequences under U.S., state, local and other tax laws. To the extent that the discussion relates to matters of Cayman Islands tax law, it constitutes the opinion of Conyers Dill & Pearman, our Cayman Islands counsel.
Cayman Islands Taxation
      The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciation and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to us levied by the Government of the Cayman Islands except for stamp duties which may be applicable on instruments executed in, or brought within, the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands is not party to any double tax treaties. There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands.
      We have, pursuant to Section 6 of the Tax Concessions Law (1999 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, obtained an undertaking from the Governor-in-Council that:
  (a)  no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income or gains or appreciations shall apply to us or our operations:
  (b)  the aforesaid tax or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall not be payable on our ordinary shares, debentures or other obligations.
      The undertaking that we have obtained is for a period of 20 years from August 15, 2006.
United States Federal Income Taxation
      The following discussion, to the extent it states matters of law or legal conclusions, and subject to the qualifications herein, constitutes the opinion of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, our special U.S. counsel, on the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders (defined below) under present law of an investment in the ADSs or ordinary shares. This summary applies only to investors that acquire their ADSs or ordinary shares in the offering, that hold the ADSs or ordinary shares as capital assets and that have the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. This discussion is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, as in effect on the date of this Prospectus and on U.S. Treasury regulations in effect, as of the date of this Prospectus, as well as judicial and administrative interpretations thereof available on or before such date. All of the foregoing authorities are subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax consequences described below.
      The following discussion does not deal with the tax consequences to any particular investor or to persons in special tax situations such as:
  •  banks;
 
  •  certain financial institutions;
 
  •  regulated investment companies;
 
  •  real estate investment trusts;
 
  •  insurance companies;
 
  •  dealers in securities or currencies;
 
  •  U.S. expatriates;
 
  •  traders in securities that elect to mark to market;

179


Table of Contents

  •  tax-exempt entities;
 
  •  persons liable for alternative minimum tax;
 
  •  persons holding an ADS or ordinary share as part of a hedging, conversion or integrated transaction , a constructive sale or a straddle;
 
  •  persons that actually or constructively own 10.0% or more of our voting stock; or
 
  •  partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes; or
 
  •  persons whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar.
      THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT CONTAIN A DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ALL THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU IN LIGHT OF YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES AND DOES NOT ADDRESS THE EFFECTS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL OR NON-U.S.  TAX LAWS. PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS ABOUT THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM IN LIGHT OF THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES AS WELL AS THE STATE AND LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF ADSs OR ORDINARY SHARES.
      The discussion below of the U.S. federal income tax consequences to “U.S. Holders” will apply if you are a beneficial owner of ADSs or ordinary shares and you are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
  •  an individual citizen or resident of the United States;
 
  •  a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
 
  •  an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or
 
  •  a trust that (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
      If you are a partner in a partnership or other entity taxable as a partnership that holds ADSs or ordinary shares, your tax treatment generally will depend on your status and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding ADSs or ordinary shares, you should consult your tax advisors.
      The discussion below assumes that the representations made by the depositary to us in the deposit agreement are true and that the obligations in the deposit agreement and any related agreement will be complied with in accordance with their terms. If you hold ADSs, you generally will be treated as the holder of the underlying ordinary shares represented by those ADSs for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Exchanges of ordinary shares for ADSs and ADSs for ordinary shares generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax.
      The U.S. Treasury has expressed concerns that parties through whom ADSs are pre-released may be taking actions (such as a disposition of underlying securities) that are inconsistent with the claiming of foreign tax credits by U.S. Holders of ADSs. Such actions would also be inconsistent with the claiming of the reduced rate of tax, described in “— Taxation of Dividends and Other Distributions on the ADSs or Ordinary Shares” below, applicable to dividends received by certain non-corporate holders. Accordingly, the availability of the reduced tax rate for dividends received by certain non-corporate holders, each described in“— Taxation of Dividends and Other Distributions on the ADSs or Ordinary Shares” below, could be affected by actions taken by parties through whom the ADSs are released.
Taxation of Dividends and Other Distributions on the ADSs or Ordinary Shares
      Subject to the passive foreign investment company rules discussed below, the gross amount of all our distributions to you with respect to the ADSs or ordinary shares generally will be taxable as dividends and

180


Table of Contents

will be included in your gross income as foreign source dividend income on the date of actual or constructive receipt by the depositary, in the case of ADSs, or by you, in the case of ordinary shares, but only to the extent that the distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code.
      With respect to non-corporate United States investors, certain dividends received in a taxable year beginning before January 1, 2011 from a qualified foreign corporation may be subject to reduced rates of taxation. A foreign corporation is treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends received from that corporation on shares (or ADSs backed by such shares) that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. United States Treasury Department guidance indicates that our ADSs will, upon listing on the NYSE, but not our ordinary shares, be readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. There can be no assurance that our ADSs will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in later years. Non-corporate holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which they are not protected from the risk of loss or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of our status as a qualified foreign corporation. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met. You should consult your own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules given your particular circumstances.
      To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, the distribution will be treated first as a tax-free return of your tax basis in your ADSs or ordinary shares, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds your tax basis, the excess will be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange. We do not intend to calculate our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, you should expect that a distribution will generally be treated as a dividend.
Taxation of Disposition of Shares
      For U.S. federal income tax purposes and subject to the passive foreign investment company rules discussed below, you will recognize taxable gain or loss on any sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of an ADS or ordinary share equal to the difference between the amount realized for the ADS or ordinary share and your tax basis in the ADS or ordinary share. Such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss. Capital gains of individuals that are recognized in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2011 are generally taxed at a maximum rate of 15% when the holder has a holding period greater than one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any such gain or loss that you recognize will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.
Passive Foreign Investment Company
      We do not believe that we are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a passive foreign investment company, or a PFIC, and we expect to operate in such a manner so as not to become a PFIC, although there can be no assurance in this regard. Because PFIC status is a factual determination, our special U.S. counsel expresses no opinion with respect to our PFIC status and also expresses no opinion with respect to our expectations contained in this paragraph. If, however, we are or become a PFIC, you could be subject to additional U.S. federal income taxes on gain recognized with respect to the ADSs or ordinary shares and on certain distributions, plus an interest charge on certain taxes treated as having been deferred under the PFIC rules. Non-corporate U.S. Holders will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation on any dividends received from us, if we are a PFIC in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or in the preceding taxable year. You are urged to consult your tax advisors concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of holding ADSs or ordinary shares if we are considered a PFIC in any taxable year.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
      Dividend payments with respect to ADSs or ordinary shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of ADSs or ordinary shares may be subject to information reporting to the Internal Revenue Service and possible U.S. backup withholding tax. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and makes any other required certification or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. U.S. Holders who are required to establish their exempt status generally must provide such certification on Internal Revenue Service Form  W-9. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the U.S. information reporting and backup withholding rules.
      Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, and you may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by filing the appropriate claim for refund with the Internal Revenue Service and furnishing any required information.

      We and the selling shareholders have agreed to pay all fees and expenses in connection with this offering, including up to US$                    of the fees and expenses incurred by the representatives of the underwriters. All fees and expenses will be borne in proportion to the numbers of ADSs sold in the offering by us and the selling shareholders, respectively, unless otherwise agreed upon between us and any of the selling shareholders.

Table of Contents

      Some of the underwriters are expected to make offers and sales both inside and outside the United States through their respective selling agents. Any offers and sales in the United States will be conducted by broker-dealers registered with the SEC. Goldman Sachs (Asia) L.L.C. is expected to make offers and sales in the United States through its selling agent, Goldman, Sachs & Co. UBS AG is expected to make offers and sales in the United States through its SEC-registered broker-dealer affiliate selling agent, UBS Securities, LLC.
      The underwriters have entered into an agreement in which they agree to restrictions on where and to whom they and any dealer purchasing from them may offer ADSs, as a part of the distribution of the ADSs. The underwriters also have agreed that they may sell ADSs among themselves.
      We have agreed with the underwriters that we will not, without the prior consent of the representatives, for a period of 180 days following the date of this prospectus, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, right or warrant to purchase, make any short sale, file a registration statement with respect to any of the ADSs or our ordinary shares or any securities that are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the ADSs or our ordinary shares, or otherwise transfer or dispose of (including entering into any swap or other agreement that transfers to any other entity, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership interest): (1) our ordinary shares and depositary shares representing our ordinary shares; (2) shares of our subsidiaries or controlled affiliates and depositary shares representing those shares; and (3) securities that are substantially similar to such shares or depositary shares. We have also agreed to cause our subsidiaries and controlled affiliates to abide by the restrictions of the lock-up agreement. In addition, each of our directors and executive officers and substantially all of our shareholders, including each of the selling shareholders have agreed to enter into a similar 180-day lock-up agreement with respect to our ordinary shares, depositary shares representing our ordinary shares and securities that are substantially similar to our ordinary shares or depositary shares representing our ordinary shares, subject to customary exceptions for transfers among affiliates. The restrictions of our lock-up agreement do not apply to: (1) the issuance of securities pursuant to our employee share incentive plan outstanding on the date of this prospectus of which the underwriters have been advised in writing and is described in this prospectus, and (2) a transfer by us to our affiliate, provided that such transfer is not a disposition for value and that such affiliate agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth in the lock-up agreement to which we are subject.
      The 180-day restricted period described in the preceding paragraph will be automatically extended if: (1) during the last 17 days of the 180-day restricted period, we release our earnings results or announce material news or a material event; or (2) prior to the expiration of the 180-day restricted period, we announce that we will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 180-day period, in which case the restrictions described in the preceding paragraph will continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the date of the release of the earnings results or the announcement of the material news or material event, as applicable.
      At our request, the underwriters have reserved up to 5% of the ADSs being offered, at the initial public offering price, through a directed share program to persons that we believe have contributed to our growth, including members of our management, friends and family members of our management, our employees, directors, affiliates and strategic partners, and employees of our affiliates and strategic partners. There can be no assurance that any of the reserved shares will be so purchased. The number of shares available for sale to the general public in this offering will be reduced to the extent that the reserved shares are purchased in the directed share program. Any reserved shares not purchased through the directed share program will be offered to the general public on the same basis as the other shares offered hereby.
      Prior to the offering, there has been no public market for our ADSs or ordinary shares. The initial public offering price of the ADSs will be determined by agreement between us and the representatives. Among the factors to be considered in determining the initial public offering price of the ADSs, in addition to prevailing market conditions, will be our historical performance, estimates of our business potential and earnings prospects, an assessment of our management and the consideration of the above factors in relation to market valuation of companies in related businesses.

Table of Contents

      An application has been made to have the ADSs offered in this offering quoted on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “YGE.”
      In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell ADSs in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Shorts sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of ADSs than they are required to purchase in the offering. “Covered” short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ option to purchase additional ADSs from us and the selling shareholders. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional ADSs or purchasing ADSs in the open market. In determining the source of ADSs to close out the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of ADSs available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase additional ADSs pursuant to the option granted them. “Naked” short sales are any sales in excess of such option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing ADSs in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the ADSs in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for, or purchases of, ADSs made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.
      The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the representatives have repurchased ADSs sold by, or for the account of, such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.
      Purchases to cover a short position and stabilizing transactions may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the ADS, and together with the imposition of the penalty bid, may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the ADSs. As a result, the price of the ADS may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced, they are required to be conducted in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and they may be discontinued at any time. These transactions may be effected on the New York Stock Exchange, in the over-the -counter market or otherwise.
      No offer of ADSs has been made or will be made to the public in the United Kingdom within the meaning of Section 102B of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, as amended, or FSMA, except to legal entities which are authorized or regulated to operate in the financial markets or, if not so authorized or regulated, whose corporate purpose is solely to invest in securities or otherwise in circumstances which do not require the publication by us of a prospectus pursuant to the Prospectus Rules of the Financial Services Authority, or FSA. An invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of FSMA) has only been communicated or caused to be communicated and will only be communicated or caused to be communicated to persons who have professional experience in matters relating to investments falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 or in circumstances in which Section 21 of FSMA does not apply to us. All applicable provisions of FSMA have been complied with and will be complied with in respect of anything done in relation to the ADSs in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.
      In relation to each member state of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive, which we refer to as a Relevant Member State, with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State, which we refer to as the Relevant Implementation Date, no offer of ADSs has been made and or will be made to the public in that Relevant Member State prior to the publication of a prospectus in relation to the ADSs which has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member State, all in accordance with the Prospectus Directive, except that, with effect from and including the Relevant Implementation Date, an offer of ADSs may be made to the public in that Relevant Member State at any time: (a) to legal entities which are authorized or regulated to operate in the financial markets or, if not so authorized or regulated,

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
      We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
      In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited and its subsidiary as of December 31, 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from August 7, 2006 (date of inception) through December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the consolidated financial statements of the Predecessor referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Predecessor as of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005 and September 4, 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, and for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006, in conformity with U.S generally accepted accounting principles.

AND
BAODING TIANWEI YINGLI NEW ENERGY RESOURCES CO., LTD AND SUBSIDIARY (“Predecessor”)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(1) Organization and Description of Business
     (a) Organization
      Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited (“Yingli Green Energy”) is incorporated in the Cayman Islands and was established on August 7, 2006, as part of a series of corporate reorganization activities (the “Reorganization”) in anticipation of the initial public offering (“IPO”) of the Company (as defined below). In connection with the incorporation of Yingli Green Energy, Yingli Power Holding Company Limited (“Yingli Power”) subscribed for 50,000,000 of the Company’s ordinary shares at par value of US$0.01 per share and became the sole shareholder and parent company of Yingli Green Energy. Yingli Power’s sole shareholder is Mr. Liansheng Miao, the Company’s chairperson and chief executive officer. For the period from August 7, 2006 through September 4, 2006, the Company did not engage in any business or operations. On September 5, 2006, Baoding Yingli Group Co. Ltd. (“Yingli Group”) transferred its 51% equity interest in Baoding Tianwei Yingli New Energy Resources Co., Ltd. (“Tianwei Yingli”) to Yingli Green Energy in exchange for RMB134.6 million (US$17.0 million). At the time of the Transfer, Yingli Group and Yingli Green Energy were each under the common control of Mr. Liansheng Miao, who held 100% beneficial interest in both Yingli Group and Yingli Green Energy. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of Tianwei Yingli were recorded by Yingli Green Energy based on Yingli Group’s adjusted basis of its 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli as of September 5, 2006 and the minority interest’s basis of the remaining 49% equity interest determined using the historical financial statement carrying amounts of the underlying assets and liabilities of Tianwei Yingli. The recorded amount of net assets of Tianwei Yingli, net of the cash consideration paid by Yingli Green Energy, of RMB 23,034,429 has been reflected as a shareholder’s contribution on September 5, 2006.
      Prior to August 9, 2006, Yingli Group held a 49% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli and Baoding Tianwei Baobian Electric Co., Ltd. (“Tianwei Baobian”), an unrelated entity, held the remaining 51% equity interest. On August 9, 2006, Tianwei Yingli declared dividends of RMB 21,716,400 and RMB 21,706,000, to Yingli Group and Tianwei Baobian, respectively. Yingli Group reinvested the entire dividend received in the form of a paid in capital contribution of RMB 14,250,000 and a capital surplus contribution of RMB 7,466,400. Tianwei Baobian reinvested RMB 10,750,000 of its dividend in the form of a paid in capital contribution. As a result of such dividend reinvestments, Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital increased from RMB 75,000,000 to RMB 100,000,000 and Yingli Group increased its equity interest in Tianwei Yingli, from 49% to a controlling 51%. Under the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) laws and regulations, each equity holder’s equity ownership interest is measured based on the percentage of registered capital each investor has contributed.
      On November 20, 2006, Yingli Green Energy completed an additional equity contribution of RMB 130,940,000 into Tianwei Yingli and as a result increased its equity ownership in Tianwei Yingli to 53.98% from 51%. On December 18, 2006, Yingli Green Energy completed an additional contribution of RMB 484,840,000 into Tianwei Yingli and as a result further increased its equity ownership in Tianwei Yingli to 62.13% from 53.98% (See note 23).
     (b) Description of Business
      Tianwei Yingli and its subsidiary Chengdu Yingli New Energy Resources Co., Ltd. (“Chengdu Yingli”) are principally engaged in the design, development, marketing, manufacturing and installation and sale of photovoltaic (“PV”) products in the PRC and overseas markets.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Significant Concentrations and Risks
     (a)  Basis of Presentation
      For financial reporting purposes, Tianwei Yingli is considered to be the predecessor (the “Predecessor”) of Yingli Green Energy. Therefore, the consolidated financial statements of Tianwei Yingli have been presented for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and the period January 1, 2006 to September 4, 2006, which is the date just prior to the transfer of the controlling equity interest in Tianwei Yingli from Yingli Group to Yingli Green Energy. The consolidated financial statements of Yingli Green Energy are presented as of December 31, 2006 and for the period August 7, 2006 (date of inception) to December 31, 2006.
      The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and Tianwei Yingli have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
      Hereinafter, the term “Company” refers to Yingli Green Energy and its predecessor, Tianwei Yingli, for both the periods prior to and succeeding the Reorganization.
      The nature of the Company’s operations required the Company to make significant prepayments to suppliers and purchases of inventory during 2005 and 2006. As a result there was a significant net use of cash from operating activities in 2005 and 2006. Prior to September 4, 2006, the Company has relied principally on non-operational sources of cash, primarily loans and advances from or guaranteed by related parties, and since September 5, 2006 from the issuance of equity and debt securities to fund its operational needs. The Company’s ability to continue as going concern for a reasonable period of time largely depends on the ability of management to successfully execute the Company’s business plan (including increasing sales while decreasing operating costs and expenses) and, if required, the ability to obtain additional funds, either from related parties or from the issuance of additional equity or debt securities. Management believes the execution of its business plan will enable it to fund its operational cash flow needs and to meet its commitments and current liabilities as and when they fall due for a reasonable period of time. Therefore, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis the Company will be able to continue as a going concern in the next twelve months.
     (b)  Principles of Consolidation
      The consolidated financial statements of Yingli Green Energy include both Yingli Green Energy and Tianwei Yingli and its majority-owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements of the Predecessor include Tianwei Yingli and its majority-owned subsidiary. For a consolidated subsidiary where the Company’s ownership is less than 100%, the equity interest not held by the Company is shown as minority interest. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
     (c)  Significant Concentrations and Risks
Revenue concentrations
      The Company’s business depends substantially on government incentives given to its customers. In many countries in which the Company sells its products, the market of the Company’s goods would not be commercially viable on a sustainable basis without government incentives. This is largely in part caused by the cost of generating electricity from solar power currently exceeding and that is expected to continue to

F-15


Table of Contents

AND
BAODING TIANWEI YINGLI NEW ENERGY RESOURCES CO., LTD AND SUBSIDIARY (“Predecessor”)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
exceed the costs of generating electricity from conventional energy sources. The Company generated approximately 96%, 97% and 91% of its total net revenues in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively, from revenues to customers in countries with known government incentive programs for the use of solar products. A significant reduction in the scope or discontinuation of government incentive programs would have a materially adverse effect on the demand of the Company’s products.
      A significant portion of the Company’s revenues are made to customers in Germany, Spain and the PRC. Sales to customers in Germany, Spain and the PRC are as follows:

      As a result of the Company deriving significant revenue from sales outside of the PRC, the Company’s financial performance could be affected by events such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates, trade protection measures and changes in regional or worldwide economic or political conditions.
      The Company currently expects that its operating results will, for the foreseeable future, continue to depend on the sale of its PV modules to a relatively small number of customers. The Company’s relationships with such key customers have been developed over a short period of time and are generally in their preliminary stages. In addition, the Company’s business is affected by competition in the market for the products that many of the Company’s major customers sell, and any decline in their businesses could reduce purchase orders from these customers. The loss of sales to any of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations. Furthermore, these customers have sought, from time to time, to prospectively renegotiate the pricing terms of their current agreements with the Company or obtain more favorable terms upon renewal of the contracts. Any adverse revisions to the material terms of the Company’s agreements with its key customers could have a material adverse effect on its business and results of operations.

      Advance payment from these customers amounted to nil, nil, RMB 48,097,977 and RMB 66,510,057 as of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006, respectively, which are reported as “advances from customers” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Dependence on suppliers
      Polysilicon is the most important raw material used in the production of the Company’s PV products. To maintain competitive manufacturing operations, the Company depends on timely delivery by its suppliers of polysilicon in sufficient quantities. The global supply of polysilicon is controlled by a limited number of producers, and there is currently an industry-wide shortage of polysilicon. The Company’s failure to obtain sufficient quantities of polysilicon in a timely manner could disrupt its operations, prevent it from operating at full capacity or limit its ability to expand as planned, which will reduce the growth of its manufacturing output and revenue.
      In order to secure stable supply of polysilicon and other raw materials, the Company makes prepayments to certain suppliers. Such amounts are recorded as prepayments to suppliers and long-term prepayments to suppliers in the consolidated balance sheets and amounted to RMB 12,616,525, RMB 123,451,683, RMB 349,735,412 and RMB 361,096,958 as of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The Company makes the prepayments without receiving collateral for

such payments. As a result, the Company’s claims for such prepayments would rank only as an unsecured claim, which exposes the Company to the credit risks of the suppliers. As of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006, advances made to individual suppliers in excess of 10% of total prepayments to suppliers are as follows:

      The Company obtains some of the equipment used in its manufacturing process from a small number of selected equipment suppliers. In addition, some equipment has been customized based on the Company’s specifications, is not readily available from multiple vendors and would be difficult to repair or replace. If any of these suppliers were to experience financial difficulties or go out of business, the Company may have difficulties in repairing or replacing its equipment in the event of any damage to or a breakdown of the Company’s ingot casting or manufacturing equipment. The Company’s ability to deliver products timely would suffer, which in turn could result in order cancellations and loss of revenue. In addition, the equipment needed for the Company’s expansion is in high demand. A supplier’s failure to deliver the equipment in a timely manner with adequate quality and on terms acceptable to the Company could delay its capacity expansion of manufacturing facilities and otherwise disrupt its production schedule or increase its costs of production. The Company also made deposits of RMB 18,330,629, RMB 58,563,038, RMB 6,940,971 and RMB 126,823,905 as of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006, respectively, for the purchase of equipment without receiving collateral for such payments. As a result, the Company’s claims for such payments would rank only as an unsecured claim, which exposes the Company to the credit risks of the equipment suppliers.
(d) Use of Estimates
      The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as with respect to the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the allocation of the purchase price for the Company’s acquisitions of minority interest in Tianwei Yingli, the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangibles with definite lives, recoverability of the carrying values of property, plant and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets, the fair value of share-based payments, allowances for doubtful receivables, realizable value of inventories, realizability of deferred income tax assets, the fair value of financial and equity instruments and warranty obligations. Actual results could differ from estimates.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(e) Foreign Currency
      The Company’s reporting currency is the Renminbi (“RMB”). The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC is the RMB as the PRC is the primary economic environment in which these entities operate.
      The functional currency of Yingli Green Energy is the US dollar (“USD”), since USD is the currency in which Yingli Green Energy primarily generates and expends cash. Assets, liabilities and Series A and B redeemable convertible preferred shares of Yingli Green Energy are translated into RMB, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No 52, “Foreign Currency Translation” , using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues, if any, and expenses are translated into the RMB at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of USD financial statements of Yingli Green Energy to the Company’s reporting currency of the RMB are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholder’s equity.
(f) Cash and Restricted Cash
      Cash consists of cash on hand, cash in bank accounts, and interest bearing savings accounts. As of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006 all of the Company’s cash is held in major financial institutions located in the PRC and Hong Kong, which management believes are of high quality.
      Restricted cash of RMB 726,733, RMB 14,870,469, RMB 8,862,462 and RMB 16,105,056 as of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006, respectively, represents bank deposits for securing letters of credit and letters of guarantee granted to the Company, primarily for the purchase of inventory. Such letters of credit and letters of guarantee expire within 1 to 3 months. The remaining restricted cash of RMB 305,675,251 as of December 31, 2006 represents the portion of cash proceeds from the issuance of mandatory redeemable and convertible bonds and Series B redeemable convertible preferred shares that are held in interest bearing bank deposit accounts. Based on the terms of the respective financing arrangements, such amount can only be used for additional capital contributions in Tianwei Yingli (which the Company is in the process of obtaining relevant PRC regulatory approval) and interest payments on the Company’s mandatory redeemable and convertible bonds payable to Yingli Power.
(g) Accounts Receivable
      Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on a review of specifically identified accounts and aging data. Judgments are made with respect to the collectibility of accounts receivable balances based on historical collection experience, customer specific facts and current economic conditions. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
(h) Inventories
      Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by using the weighted average cost method. Cost of work-in -progress and finished goods are comprised of direct materials, direct labor, and related manufacturing overhead based on normal operating capacity. Adjustments are

recorded to write down the carrying amount of obsolete and excess inventory to its estimated net realizable value based on historical and forecasted demand.
(i) Prepayments to Suppliers
      Advance payments for the future delivery of polysilicon are made based on written purchase orders detailing product, quantity and price and are classified as “prepayments to suppliers” in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s supply contracts grant the Company the right to inspect products prior to acceptance. The outstanding balance of the “prepayments to suppliers” is reduced and reclassified to “inventories” when inventory is received and passes quality inspection based on the terms of the purchase order. Such reclassifications of RMB 5,169,299, RMB 12,037,615, RMB 70,679,259 and RMB 152,431,193 for the years ended December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, the period January 1, 2006 to September 4, 2006 and the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006, respectively are not reflected as cash outflows from operating activities. Prepayments to suppliers expected to be utilized within twelve months as of each balance sheet date are recorded as current “prepayments to suppliers” in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2006, prepayments to suppliers of RMB 226,273,660 representing the portion expected to be utilized after twelve months have been classified as “long-term prepayments to suppliers” in the consolidated balance sheet and relate to prepayments to one supplier for two long-term supply agreements with deliveries not scheduled to commerce until 2009.
(j) Property, Plant and Equipment
      Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or relative fair value at the date of acquisition. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the asset, taking into consideration any estimated residual value, using the straight-line method. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between net book value and proceeds received thereon. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized. The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
         
Buildings     30 years  
Machinery     8-10 years  
Electronic equipment     4-5 years  
Furniture and fixtures     4-5 years  
Motor vehicles     8-10 years  
      Depreciation of property, plant and equipment attributable to manufacturing activities is capitalized as part of the cost of inventory production, and expensed to cost of revenues when the inventory is sold.
      Cost incurred in the construction of new facilities, including progress payments and deposits, interest and other costs relating to the construction, are capitalized and transferred out of construction in progress and into their respective asset categories when the assets are ready for their intended use, at which time depreciation commences.
     (k)  Land Use Rights
      Land use rights represent the cost of land use rights in the PRC. Land use rights are carried at cost and charged to expense on a straight-line basis over the respective periods of the rights of 45-50 years.

     (l)  Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
      Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of the proportional net assets acquired from the acquisitions of additional equity interest in Tianwei Yingli (note 23). Goodwill and trademarks, which have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually.
      Intangible assets, other than trademarks, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The Company’s amortizable intangible assets consist of technical know-how, customer relationships, order backlog and short-term and long-term supplies agreements with the following estimated useful lives:
     
Technical know-how
  6 years
Customer relationships
  6 years
Order backlog
  1.5 years
Short-term supply agreements
  0.5 years
Long-term supply agreements
  5 and 9 years starting from 2009
      Long-term supply agreements relate to two long-term polysilicon supply agreements with delivery period commencing in 2009. The intangible asset in connection with these two agreements will be amortized over the delivery period of 5 and 9 years, commencing in 2009.
     (m)  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
      Long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the consolidated balance sheet.
      Goodwill and intangible assets that are not subject to amortization are tested annually for impairment, and are tested for impairment more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. For intangible assets that are not subject to amortization, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. For goodwill, the impairment determination is made at the reporting unit level and consists of two steps. In the first step, the Company determines the fair value of a reporting unit and compares it to its carrying amount, including goodwill. Second, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation. The residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill.

     (n)  Investment in and Advances to An Affiliate
      Investments in entities where the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, but has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of the investee’s results of operations is included in other income (expense).
      The Company recognizes a loss when there is a loss in value of equity method investment which is other than a temporary decline. The process of assessing and determining whether impairment on a particular equity investment is other than temporary requires a significant amount of judgment. To determine whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, the Company considers whether it has the ability and intent to hold the investment until recovery and whether evidence indicating the carrying value of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary. Evidence considered in this assessment includes the reasons for the impairment, the severity and duration of the decline in value, any change in value subsequent to year-end, and forecasted performance of the investee. Based on the Company’s evaluation, there was no impairment charge related to its investment in an affiliate for all periods presented.
     (o)  Statutory Reserves
      In accordance with PRC Company Law, Tianwei Yingli is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely a statutory surplus reserve and a statutory public welfare reserve which are appropriated from net profits. Prior to September 5, 2006, as a domestic limited liability company, Tianwei Yingli was required to allocate at least 10% of its after tax profits to a statutory surplus reserve with the right to discontinue allocations to the statutory surplus reserve if such reserves reach 50% of its registered capital. Tianwei Yingli also appropriated 5% of the profit to the statutory public welfare reserve. All statutory reserves are required to be calculated based on amounts reported in Tianwei Yingli’s PRC statutory financial statements. Effective from September 5, 2006, as a result of the Reorganization, Tianwei Yingli became a foreign invested enterprise (“FIE”). Tianwei Yingli, as a FIE, is required to provide for reserve fund, employee fund and welfare funds and enterprise development fund each at a percentage, which is a discretionary percentage and is decided by the Tianwei Yingli’s board of directors each calendar year. These reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferable to the Company in the form of loans, advances, or cash dividends.
      As of December 31, 2006, Tianwei Yingli had appropriated RMB 14,376,864 in statutory reserves, which, although are restricted from being distributed to Yingli Green Energy, have no impact on presentation of the Company’s retained earnings in the consolidated balance sheet.
     (p)  Share-based Payment
      The Company applied SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”) for share based payments made in the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006. Under SFAS No. 123R, the Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award and recognizes the costs over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period.
      For the years ended December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005 and the period January 1, 2006 to September 4, 2006, the Company did not enter into any share-based payment arrangements.

     (q)  Revenue Recognition
      Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has occurred or the service has been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. These criteria as they relate to the sale of the Company’s products or services are as follows:
      For sales of PV modules to foreign customers, delivery of the products occurs at the point in time the product is delivered to the named port of shipment, which is when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the customer. For sales of PV modules to domestic customers, delivery of the product occurs at the point in time the product is received by the customer, which is when the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred.
      Sales of PV systems consist of the delivery, assembly and installation of PV modules, related power electronics and other components. The Company considers the PV system to be delivered, and the risks and rewards of ownership transferred, when installation of all components is complete and customer acceptance is received. Customer acceptance is evidenced by a signed project acceptance document. The assembly and installation of PV systems is short, generally lasting between 1 to 3 months, and requires advance payments from the customer.
      Other revenue consists primarily of the sale of raw materials and the processing of PV cells into PV modules for third-party vendors. Revenue for the processing of PV cells into PV modules is recognized at the time when the processing is completed and the PV modules are received by the customer. Delivery for the sale of raw materials occurs at the point in time the product is received by the customer, which is when the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred.
      For all sales and services, the Company requires a contract or purchase order which quantifies pricing, quantity and product specifications. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recorded as revenues, with the related shipping or delivery costs recorded as cost of revenues.
      Advance payments received from customers for the future sale of inventory are recognized as advances from customers in the consolidated balance sheets. Advances from customers are recognized as revenues when the conditions for revenue recognition described above have been satisfied. Advances from customers have been recognized as a current liability because the amount at each balance sheet date is expected to be recognized as revenue within twelve months.
      In the PRC, value added tax (“VAT”) at a general rate of 17% on invoice amount is collected on behalf of tax authorities in respect of the sales of product and services and is not recorded as revenue. VAT collected from customers, net of VAT paid for purchases, is recorded as a liability until it is paid to the tax authorities. Prior to September 5, 2006, Tianwei Yingli and its subsidiary, Chengdu Yingli were subject to city construction tax and education surcharge at rates of 7% and 4%, respectively, of net value added tax payable. Commencing on September 5, 2006, as a result of Tianwei Yingli’s change in tax status to a foreign invested enterprise, Tianwei Yingli is no longer subject to the city construction tax and education surcharge. Chengdu Yingli, as a domestic company, continues to be subject to such tax and surcharge. In the accompanying consolidated statements of income, city construction tax and education surcharge of RMB 8,242, RMB 2,987,288, RMB 11,357,591 and RMB 4,208 are deducted to arrive at net revenues for the years ended December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, the period January 1, 2006 to September 4, 2006 and the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006, respectively.

     (r)  Research and Development and Government Grant
      Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
      The Company is a party to research grant contracts with the PRC government under which the Company receives funds in advance for specified costs incurred in certain research projects. The Company records such amounts as a reduction to research and development expenses when the related research and development costs are incurred. The Company has recorded grant proceeds of RMB 200,000, RMB 1,550,000, RMB 600,000 and RMB 400,000 as a reduction to research and development expenses during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, the period January 1, 2006 to September 4, 2006 and the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006, respectively.
     (s)  Warranty Cost
      The Company’s PV modules are typically sold with a two-year limited warranty for defects in materials and workmanship, and a 10-year and 25-year warranty against declines of more than 10.0% and 20.0% of initial power generation capacity, respectively. As a result, the Company bears the risk of warranty claims long after the Company has sold its products and recognized revenues. The Company has sold PV modules only since January 2003, and none of the Company’s PV modules has been in use for more than four years. In connection with the Company’s PV system sales in the PRC, the Company provides a one- to five-year warranty against defects in the Company’s modules, storage batteries, controllers and inverters. The Company performs industry-standard testing to test the quality, durability and safety of the Company’s products. As a result of such tests, management believes the quality, durability and safety of its products are within industry norms. Management’s estimate of the amount of its warranty obligation is based on the results of these tests and consideration given to the warranty accrual practice of other companies in the same business. Consequently, the Company accrues the equivalent of 1% of net revenues as a warranty liability to accrue the estimated cost of its warranty obligations.
      Actual warranty costs are charged against the accrued warranty liability. To the extent that actual warranty costs differ significantly from estimates, the Company will revise its warranty provisions accordingly.
      Changes in the carrying amount of accrued product warranty are as follows:

     (t)  Income Taxes
      Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and any tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
     (u)  Commitments and Contingencies
      Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
      The Company is exposed to risks associated with product liability claims in the event that the use of the PV products the Company sells results in injury. The Company does not maintain any third-party liability insurance coverage other than limited product liability insurance or any insurance coverage for business interruption. As a result, the Company may have to pay for financial and other losses, damages and liabilities, including, those in connection with or resulting from third-party product liability claims and those caused by natural disasters and other events beyond the Company’s control, out of its own funds, which could have a material adverse effect on its financial conditions and results of operation.
     (v)  Segment Reporting
      The Company has no operating segments, as that term is defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 131 Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. Geographic revenue information is presented in note 24.
     (w)  Earnings Per Share
      In accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Computation of Earnings Per Share” (“SFAS No. 128”) and EITF Issue  03-06, “Participating Securities and the Two — Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128” (“EITF Issue No.  03-06”), basic earnings per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income allocated to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006 using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net income is allocated between ordinary shares and other participating securities based on dividends declared (or accumulated) and participating rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s Series A and Series B redeemable convertible preferred shares (note 17) are participating securities since the holders of these securities may participate in dividends with ordinary shareholder(s) based on a pre-determined formula. EITF Issue No.  03-06 does not require the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share for securities other than ordinary shares; therefore the basic earnings per share amounts presented only pertain to the Company’s ordinary shares.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
      Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to ordinary shareholder as adjusted for the effect of dilutive ordinary equivalent shares, if any, by the weighted average number of ordinary and dilutive ordinary equivalent shares outstanding during the year. Ordinary equivalent shares consist of the ordinary shares issuable upon the conversion of the Series A and B redeemable convertible preferred shares and mandatory convertible bonds (using the if-converted method) and ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding share options and warrants (using the treasury stock method). Potential dilutive securities are not included in the calculation of dilutive earnings per share if the impact is anti-dilutive.
      Tianwei Yingli is not a share-based company and had no outstanding shares for the periods presented, and therefore, no earnings per share data for Tianwei Yingli has been presented.
     (x)  Recently Issued Accounting Standards
     FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48)
      In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FIN 48 establishes the threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax-return positions in the consolidated financial statements as “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the taxing authority, and prescribes a measurement methodology for those positions meeting the recognition threshold. FIN 48 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2007. Management does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     SFAS No. 155
      In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments — an amendment of FASB Statements 133 and 140 , or SFAS No. 155. SFAS No. 155 improves financial reporting by eliminating the exemption from applying SFAS No. 133 to interests in securitized financial assets so that similar instruments are accounted for similarly regardless of the form of the instruments. SFAS No. 155 also improves financial reporting by allowing a preparer to elect fair value measurement at acquisition, at issuance, or when a previously recognized financial instrument is subject to a re-measurement event, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, in cases in which a derivative would otherwise have to bifurcated, if the holder elects to account for the whole instrument on a fair value basis. SFAS No. 155 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2007. Management does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 155 will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     SFAS No. 157
      In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurement or SFAS No. 157. SFAS No. 157 addresses standardizing the measurement of fair value for companies that are required to use a fair value measure of recognition for recognition or disclosure purposes. The FASB defines fair value as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measure date.” SFAS No. 157 is effective for the year for the Company on January 1, 2008. Management does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

      As part of its ongoing control procedures, management monitors the creditworthiness of its customers to which it grants credit terms in the normal course of business. Credit terms are normally 7 to 10 days from the date of billing. For certain customers the Company requires an advance payment before the sale is made. Such advance payments are reported as “advances from customers” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and amounted to RMB 1,883,464, RMB 27,874,404, RMB 174,681,305 and RMB 113,637,769 as of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The Company also requires certain customers to secure payment by a letter of credit issued by the customers’ banks. Letters of credit have terms ranging from 1 to 3 months. Until the letter of credit is drawn and the amount is paid, the amount due from the customer is recorded as accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006, 64%, 92%, 71% and 97%, respectively, of accounts receivable were denominated in currencies other than the RMB.
      As of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006, certain accounts receivables were pledged to banks as collateral for borrowings (note 10).

(7) Land Use Rights
      In April 2006, the Company obtained approval from Hebei Province municipal government to acquire the right to use the land on which the Company will construct a 500 million watt PV module plant, national PV engineering center, PV research and development center and a training center. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company was obligated to pay approximately RMB 75,985,500 to obtain the right to use the land for a period of 50 years. In June 2006, the Company commenced its construction project on the land and recorded the land use right asset and corresponding liability at the estimated acquisition price of RMB 75,985,500. On December 22, 2006, the Company renegotiated the acquisition price with the government and paid a revised amount of RMB 39,697,276 for the land use right. Accordingly, the Company revised the previous recorded amount of land use right to reflect the final acquisition price. The Company obtained the land use right certificate on February 15, 2007.
(8) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
      The carrying amounts of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, current amounts due from related parties, accounts payable, borrowings from related parties, short-term borrowing, advances from customers, and other amounts due to related parties approximate their fair values due to their short term nature.
      The fair value of the long-term portion of amounts due from related parties as of December 31, 2004 is RMB 7,517,828 and is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using the interest rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and remaining estimated maturities.
      The estimated fair value of mandatory redeemable bonds and the mandatory convertible bonds was RMB 299,359,827 (carrying value RMB 293,109,511) and RMB 370,260,838 (carrying value RMB 362,530,181), respectively as of December 31, 2006 and was based on the present value of cash flows discounted at a rate that approximates current market returns for issues of similar debt instruments issued to comparable holders in the same geographic area.
      There is no quoted market price for the Company’s investment in its affiliate (note 9). Accordingly, a reasonable estimate of fair value could not be made without incurring excessive costs.
(9) Investment in and Advances to an Affiliate
      The Company acquired a 10% equity interest in Tibet Tianwei Yingli New Energy Resources Co., Ltd. (“Tibetan Yingli”) in December 2003 for RMB 4,000,000. On September 15, 2005, the Company acquired an additional 40% equity interest for RMB 8,000,000 and obtained the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of Tibetan Yingli. The purchase price approximated 40% of the fair value of Tibetan Yingli’s net assets. Consequently, no investor level goodwill was recognized. The Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect the Company’s investment in Tibetan Yingli on the equity method of accounting, which was applied retrospectively to the beginning of 2004.
      As of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006, the Company’s advances to Tibetan Yingli were nil, RMB 1,080,900, RMB 4,828,035 and RMB 2,399,910, respectively, to assist Tibetan Yingli in supporting their operating activities. During the period from August 7, 2006 through December 31, 2006, pursuant to the approval of the Board of Tibetan Yingli, advances of RMB 8,000,000 to Tibetan Yingli were settled by reducing the Company’s RMB 8,000,000 purchase price payable to Tibetan Yingli. The settlement of the advance and corresponding payable was reflected as a non-cash transaction in the consolidated statements of cash flow.

All short-term bank borrowings mature and expire at various times within one year. These facilities contain no specific renewal terms or any requirement on the maintenance of financial covenants. The Company has traditionally negotiated renewal of certain facilities shortly before they mature. Tianwei Baobian entrusted loans of RMB 310,000,000 from Chinese Construction Bank to Tianwei Yingli as of September 4, 2006, which Tianwei Yingli repaid during the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006.

      The loan from customer of RMB 30,000,000 held as of December 31, 2005, was unsecured, had no specific repayment terms, bore interest at a rate of 5.58% per annum, and was repaid on March 20, 2006. The loan from the governmental authority of RMB 12,000,000 is unsecured, bears interest at a rate of 7.67% guaranteed by Tianwei Baobian and was past due on July 18, 2005 and therefore, payable on demand. Loans from other third-party borrowings were personally arranged by the Company’s related parties and were interest-free and unsecured. During the year ended December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, the period January 1, 2006 to September 4, 2006 and the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006, the Company obtained loans from other third parties of nil, RMB 25,715,509, RMB 5,000,000, and nil and repaid loans to other third parties of nil, nil, RMB 20,715,509, and RMB 10,000,000, respectively.

free loans have no specific due dates and were issued solely for cash and no other rights or privileges were exchanged, and therefore no interest has been imputed.
      In August 2005, the Company negotiated an agreement with the holder of the Company’s overdue bank loan secured by the land use right and property, plant and equipment. The holder of the Company’s loan had acquired the Company’s loan from a financial institution at a discount from the face value of the loan. At that time the total amount outstanding was RMB 12,964,688, of which RMB 12,000,000 represented principal (the face value) and the remainder represented accrued interest payable. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company paid RMB 10,800,000 as payment in full for the loan and interest. As a result, the Company recognized a gain of RMB 2,164,688 on extinguishment of debt in 2005.
(11) Convertible Loan
      In May 2006, Tianwei Yingli issued a RMB 85,635,000 convertible loan due on May 17, 2007 to China Foreign Economics and Trade & Investment Co., Ltd., or FOTIC, who held the loan as a nominee for certain third parties (the “Third Party Investors”). The loan was issued at par and bore interest at 8% payable at maturity. The loan was convertible into ordinary shares of Tianwei Yingli at a conversion price equal to Tianwei Yingli’s per share market value as determined by a future private placement of Tianwei Yingli’s equity and agreed upon by both parties.
      On December 29, 2006, Tianwei Yingli, FOTIC, China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd. (an entity designated by the Third Party Investors) and Yingli Green Energy entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which the Company repaid the convertible loan plus accrued interest of RMB 4,281,750 and issued warrant to China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd. to purchase 2,068,252 of Yingli Green Energy’s ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$4.835 per share.

China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd. exercised the warrant on February 2, 2007.

(13) Mandatory Convertible and Redeemable Bonds Payable to Yingli Power
      On November 13, 2006, Yingli Power, the Company’s controlling shareholder and an entity wholly owned by Mr. Liansheng Miao, issued US$85 million floating rate Notes (“the Notes”) at 98.75% of face value to Deutsche Bank AG, Singapore Branch (“Deutsche Bank”). The Notes consisted of two portions, US$55 million in mandatory redeemable notes (“Mandatory Redeemable Notes”) and US$30 million in mandatory exchangeable notes (“Mandatory Exchangeable Notes”). Upon the IPO, the Mandatory Exchangeable Notes convert into the number of the Company’s ordinary shares equivalent to 3.73% effective equity interests in Tianwei Yingli on a fully diluted basis. Such shares will be delivered by Yingli Power. The effective conversion price is subject to certain adjustments based on Tianwei Yingli’s 2006 net income or the Company’s IPO offering price. In connection with the issuance of the Notes, Yingli Power issued a warrant to Deutsche Bank, which is exercisable into 6.5% of the Company’s ordinary shares held by Yingli Power. The warrant is only exercisable if the Company repays the loan, under its early redemption rights and the Company completes it IPO. The exercise price of this warrant is the lower of (i) 25 times Tianwei Yingli’s

net income for the year ended December 31, 2006, multiplied by the Company’s ownership percentage in Tianwei Yingli and divided by the total number of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares on fully diluted basis and (ii) 67.5% of offering price of the Company’s ordinary shares in a public offering and listing of such shares in an international stock exchange. The warrant is exercisable upon any listing of the Company’s ordinary shares, which occurs after the Notes have been repaid in full.
      In connection with Yingli Power’s issuance of the Notes, the Company issued US$85,000,000 in interest-bearing Bonds (“the Bonds”) to Yingli Power at 98.95% of face value. The Bonds consisted of two portions, US$38 million in mandatory redeemable bonds (“Mandatory Redeemable Bonds”) and US$47 million in mandatory convertible bonds (“Mandatory Convertible Bonds”). Upon the IPO, the Mandatory Convertible Bonds convert into the number of the Company’s ordinary shares equivalent to 3.73% effective equity interests in Tianwei Yingli on a fully diluted basis. Such shares will be newly issued by the Company and delivered to Yingli Power. The terms of the Notes and Bonds are substantially the same, other than the portion of the amount that is convertible into the Company’s ordinary shares. Yingli Power used the cash proceeds from the issuance of the Notes to purchase the Bonds issued by Yingli Green Energy.
      The Company has determined that the conversion feature embedded in the Mandatory Convertible Bonds is not required to be bifurcated and accounted for as a derivative pursuant to SFAS No 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 133”) , since the terms of conversion do not require or permit net settlement, provide for a means for the conversion feature to be settled outside the contract, or provide for delivery of an asset which would put the holders of the Mandatory Convertible Bond in a position substantially similar to a net settlement provision. The Company has also determined that the non-detachable convertible feature had no intrinsic value on the commitment date based on the conversion price paid by Deutsche Bank, an unrelated third-party investor. Therefore, no beneficial conversion feature was recognized. Since the ultimate number of shares to be issued upon conversion is contingent, the Company will determine whether the conversion feature has intrinsic value when the number of shares to be issued is known and the conversion contingency is resolved.
      Direct and incremental cost of issuing the Bonds of RMB 2,351,259 were charged against the proceeds and recorded as a discount to the Bonds’ issuance price or carrying value.
      Both the Bonds and the Notes are due at their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on November 16, 2008. Both the Bonds and Notes bear interest from November 16, 2006, payable quarterly at an interest rate equal to the British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rate plus 2% per annum for the period ending prior to August 17, 2007 and plus 4% per annum thereafter.
      The Company has the right to early redeem the Bonds and correspondingly, Yingli Power has the right to early redeem the Notes at any time in whole, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Bonds or Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
      Under both the Bonds and Notes agreements, the Company is subject to a number of covenants, such as the maintenance of certain financial ratios commencing on the quarter ended June 30, 2007, restrictions on granting collateral, disposal of existing assets, making payments to shareholder and affiliates and making investments. The Company has also pledged to Yingli Power all of its current and future equity interest in Tianwei Yingli as collateral under these bonds, correspondingly, Yingli Power has pledged all of its current and future equity in the Company as collateral under these notes.

(14) Employee Benefit Plans
      Pursuant to the relevant PRC regulations, the Company is required to make contributions for each employee at a rate of 20% on a standard salary base as determined by the local Social Security Bureau, to a defined contribution retirement program organized by the local Social Security Bureau. In addition, the Company is also required by pursuant to the relevant PRC regulations to make contributions for each employee at a rate of 7.5%, 2% and 2% of standard salary base for medical insurance benefits, unemployment and other statutory benefits, respectively. Total amount of contributions for the years ended December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, the period January 1, 2006 to September 4, 2006 and the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006 was RMB 122,742, RMB 528,736, RMB 1,037,006 and RMB 620,483, respectively.
(15) Income Taxes
      Under the current laws of the Cayman Islands, Yingli Green Energy is not subject to tax on its income or capital gains. In addition, upon any payment or dividend by Yingli Green Energy, no withholding tax is imposed.
      Yingli Green Energy’s operating subsidiary, being incorporated in the PRC, is governed by the income tax law of the PRC and is generally subject to the PRC enterprise income tax rate of 33%, consisting of 30% state tax and 3% local tax. Prior to September 5, 2006, for tax purposes Tianwei Yingli was considered a domestic enterprise. In addition, Tianwei Yingli qualified as a “high and new technology enterprise” and was entitled to a preferential PRC enterprise income tax rate of 15%, consisting of 15% state tax and nil local tax. As part of the Reorganization described in Note 1, Tianwei Yingli’s tax status changed to a foreign invested enterprise Tianwei Yingli maintained its “high and new technology enterprise” status. As a result Tianwei Yingli’s tax rate remained at 15% however its local tax rate was increased to 3%.

      In assessing the realizability of deferred income tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred income tax assets are deductible or utilized, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. Therefore, no valuation allowance has been provided against deferred income tax assets as of December 31, 2004, December 31, 2005, September 4, 2006 and December 31, 2006. The amount of the deferred income tax asset considered realizable, however, could be reduced if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced.
      On March 16, 2007, the PRC government enacted the new Enterprise Income Tax Law which imposes a single income tax rate of 25% for most domestic enterprises and foreign investment enterprises. The Enterprise Income Tax Law is effective as of January 1, 2008 and may result in higher income taxes to the Company in the future. The impact of the changes in tax rates on the Company’s deferred tax balances, if any, will be recognized in 2007, the period the new enterprise income tax rate is enacted.
(16) Share-Based Compensation
Stock Option and Stock Issuance Plan
      On December 28, 2006, the Company adopted the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for both the granting of stock options and other stock-based awards such as restricted shares to key

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
employees, directors and consultants of the Company. The Board of Directors and shareholders authorized and reserved for the issuance of up to 3,394,054 ordinary shares under the Plan. Among these shares, 2,715,243 shares may be issued for the purpose of granting awards of restricted shares and up to 678,811 shares may be issued for the purpose of granting options. Stock options granted become exercisable over four years. The Company expects to issue new shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options.
      On December 28, 2006, the Board of Directors granted options to purchase an aggregate of 610,929 ordinary shares to four executive officers at an exercise price of US$2.10 per share with a contractual term of ten years and vesting period of four years. The fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares and intrinsic value per option on December 28, 2006 was RMB 37.04 (US$4.74) per share and RMB 20.63 (US$2.64), respectively. The Company did not grant any options during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005, and for the period from January 1, 2006 through September 4, 2006.
      The Company has accounted for these options in accordance with SFAS No. 123R by recognizing compensation cost based on the grant-date fair value over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The amount of compensation cost recognized for these share options was RMB 61,667 (US$7,826) for the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006, which was charged to general and administrative expenses.
      The option fair value of RMB 29.77 (US$3.81) per share or an aggregate of RMB 18,200,902 (US$2,329,000) on the date of grant was determined based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the following assumptions:
         
    December 28, 2006
     
Expected volatility
    70%  
Expected dividends yield
    0%  
Expected term
    6.3 years  
Risk-free interest rate (per annum)
    5.13%  
Estimated fair value of underlying ordinary shares (per share)
    US$4.74  
      The expected volatility of 70% was based on the average volatility of several listed comparable companies in the solar products manufactory industry. Since the Company did not have a trading history at the time the options were issued, the Company estimated the potential volatility of its ordinary share price by referring to the latest six year average volatility of these comparable companies because management believes that the average volatility of such companies was a reasonable benchmark to use in estimating the expected volatility of the Company’s ordinary shares.
      The estimated fair value of the underlying ordinary shares on the date of the above grant was determined by management based on a contemporaneous valuation conducted by American Appraisal China Limited (“American Appraisal”), an unrelated and independent valuation firm.

      As of December 31, 2006 there was RMB 18,139,235 total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share options, which were all issued on December 28, 2006. This cost is expected to be recognized on a straight line basis over the next four years.
(17) Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares
      On September 28, 2006, the Company issued 8,081,081 Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares (“Series A Preferred Shares”) to Inspiration Partner Limited for an aggregate purchase price of US$17,010,000 (RMB 134,526,987) or US$2.10 per Series A Preferred Share. In conjunction with the issuance of the Series A Preferred Shares, the Company issued TB Management Ltd., an affiliate of Inspiration Partner Limited. a warrant to purchase 678,811 of ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$2.10 per share (the Series A Warrant). The Series A Warrant is exercisable at anytime prior to the Company’s initial public offering. As of December 31, 2006, the Series A Warrant had not been exercised.
      The Series A Warrant and Series A Preferred Shares were recorded at their relative fair value of US$211,341 (RMB 1,671,432) and US$16,798,659 (RMB 132,855,555), respectively, in aggregate or US$0.31 (RMB2.43) and US$2.08 (RMB16.23), respectively, on a per share basis. The relative fair value of the Series A Warrant was recorded as a discount to the issuance price of the Series A Preferred Shares and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital. The Company has determined that there was no embedded beneficial conversion feature attributable to the Series A Preferred Shares at the commitment date, since US$2.08, the effective conversion price of each of the Series A Preferred Shares, was greater than US$2.04, the fair value of each of the Company’s ordinary shares. The estimated fair value of the underlying Series A preferred shares at the commitment date was determined by management based on a contemporaneous valuation also conducted by American Appraisal supplemented by the forecasted profitability and cash flows of the Company’s business. The fair value of the Series A Warrant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility rate of 58%, risk-free interest rate of 5.04%, exercise price of US$2.10, and an expected term of 0.59 years. The estimated fair values of the Series A Preferred Shares and underlying ordinary shares at the commitment date was determined by management based on a

contemporaneous valuation also conducted by American Appraisal supplemented by the forecasted profitability and cash flows of the Company’s business.
      The Series A Preferred Shares are redeemable for cash at the option of the majority of the holders at any time after September 28, 2009, at a redemption price of US$22,133,600 equal to the Series A Preferred Shares issuance price plus 12% per annum. Consequently, the Series A Preferred Shares are classified outside of permanent equity of the Company. The accretion from Series A Preferred Share’s initial carrying value of US$16,748,659 to the Series A Preferred Shares’ redemption value of US$23,133,600 is reflected as a reduction to earnings to arrive at net income applicable to ordinary shareholder in the accompanying consolidated statement of income and amounted to US$475,932 for the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006.
      On December 13, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to issue 24,405,377 Series B Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares (“Series B Preferred Shares”) to Baytree Investment (Mauritius) Pte Ltd., an affiliate of Temasek Holdings Pte Ltd. and 13 other investors for an aggregate purchase price of US$118,000,000 (RMB 922,736,400) or US$4.835 per Series B Preferred Share. As of December 31, 2006, the Company issued 23,474,663 shares of Series B preferred shares for an aggregate purchase price of US$113,500,000 (RMB 887,547,300). Of the US$113,500,000, US$20,000,000 was received prior to the issuance date as advance payments. The Company used US$17,000,000 of the advanced payments to increase its equity interest in Tianwei Yingli to 53.98% from 51% (Note 23).
      In conjunction with the issuance of Series B Preferred Shares, the Company issued warrants to purchase 2,112,057 of ordinary shares at an exercise price of US$0.01 per share (the Series B Warrant) to investors who did not make advance payments. The Series B Warrant is exercisable at any time after April 30, 2007 or such later date on which the Series B Preferred shareholders agree and prior to the earlier of (a) the closing of the Company’s qualified initial public offering or (b) the conversion of the full amount of the principal of RMB 612,856,640 (US$78,400,000) and accrued interest of a shareholder loan that Yingli Green Energy provided to Tianwei Yingli with the proceeds funded from the Series B Preferred Shares into Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital (the “Shareholder Loan”). The Series B Warrant is not transferable and is subject to certain cancellation and return features. Upon the conversion of the Shareholder Loan any unexercised Series B Warrants will be automatically cancelled and the Series B preferred shareholders are obligated to return any shares issued under the exercise of the warrants. If the Series B preferred shareholders have sold their ordinary shares issued under the exercise of the warrants, then the Series B preferred shareholders will pay the Company an amount to be mutually determined between the Company and such Series B preferred shareholders.
      For Series B Preferred Shares that were issued with warrants, the Series B Warrant and Series B Preferred Shares were recorded at their relative fair value of US$850,482 (RMB 6,650,603) and US$92,649,512 (RMB 724,500,650), respectively, in aggregate or US$0.42(RMB3.30) and US$4.79 (RMB37.46), respectively, on a per share basis. The relative fair value of the Series B Warrant was recorded as a discount to the issuance price of the Series B Preferred Share and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital. The Company has determined that there was no embedded beneficial conversion feature attributable to the Series B Preferred Shares that were issued with warrants at the commitment date, since US$4.79, the effective conversion price of the Series B Preferred Shares, was greater than US$4.74, the fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares. The estimated fair value of the underlying Series B preferred shares at the commitment date was determined by management based on a contemporaneous valuation also conducted by American Appraisal supplemented by the forecasted profitability and cash flows of the

Company’s business. The relative fair value of the Series B Warrant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the following assumptions: expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility rate of 47%, risk-free interest rate of 5.05% and expected term of 0.3 years. The resulting amount was then discounted by 90% to take into account management’s estimation and probability of the warrants not being exercised since the warrants are automatically cancelled upon the conversion of the Shareholder Loan into Tianwei Yingli’s registered capital. The estimated fair values of the Series B Preferred Shares and underlying ordinary shares at the commitment date was also determined by management based on a contemporaneous valuation also conducted by American Appraisal supplemented by the forecasted profitability and cash flows of the Company’s business.
      Further, the Company has determined that there was no embedded beneficial conversion feature attributable to the Series B Preferred Shares that were issued without warrants at the commitment date, since US$4.835, the initial conversion price of the Series B Preferred Shares, was greater than US$4.74, the fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares.
      The Series B Preferred Shares are redeemable for cash at the option of the majority of the holders at any time after September 28, 2009, at a redemption price of US$154,360,000 (RMB 1,205,350,932) equal to the Series B Preferred Shares issuance price plus 12% per annum. Consequently, the Series B Preferred Shares are classified outside of permanent equity of the Company as of December 31, 2006. The accretion from Series B Preferred Share’s initial carrying value of US$112,649,514 (RMB 880,896,663) to Series B Preferred Share’s redemption value of US$154,360,000 (RMB 1,205,350,932) is reflected as a reduction to earnings to arrive at net income applicable to ordinary shareholder in the accompanying consolidated statement of income and amounted to US$408,469 (RMB 3,218,654) for the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006.
      One customer, with sales that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s net revenue, during the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006, purchased 2,068,252 Series B Preferred Shares.
      As of December 31, 2006, the Series A Preferred Shares and Series B Preferred Shares (collectively the “Preferred Shares”) are comprised of the following:

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Dividends
      Holders of the preferred shares are entitled to participate in dividends at the same rate per share as the ordinary shares, prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend on the ordinary shares, when and if declared by the Board of Directors. No dividends on preferred and ordinary shares have been declared since the issuance date through December 31, 2006.
Liquidation
      In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntarily or involuntarily, the holders of preferred shares shall be entitled to receive an amount per share equal to 100% of the original issue plus all dividends accrued, or declared and unpaid. If the assets and funds distributed among the holders are insufficient to permit the payment of the full preferential amounts, then the entire assets and funds legally available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the preferred shares in proportion to their full preferential amounts. After payment of the full amounts from above, the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among the holders of preferred shares and ordinary shares in proportion to the number of outstanding shares hold by each such holder.
Conversion
      Each share of preferred share is convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time after the date of issuance of such share for such preferred share according to a conversion ratio, subject to adjustment for dilution. Each share of preferred share shall be convertible into the number of shares of ordinary shares determined by dividing the applicable original issuance price by the conversion price. At December 31, 2006, each share of preferred share is convertible into one ordinary share.
      Each share of preferred share automatically converts into the number of shares of ordinary share into which such shares are convertible upon the earlier of any of the following events: (i) affirmative election of the holders of a majority of the preferred shares then outstanding, voting together as a single class, or (ii) the closing of a first firm commitment underwritten public offering of ordinary shares, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of at least US$100 million and a total market capitalization of at least US$750 million.
      At December 31, 2006, the Company had reserved 32,486,458 shares of ordinary shares for the conversion of the preferred shares.
Purchase price adjustment
      If Tianwei Yingli does not reach a certain level of Net Income (defined as consolidated profit after taxes, excluding any non-recurring or extraordinary items and adding back stock option charges, as reported in accordance with US GAAP) in 2006 and 2007, Yingli Power, the Company’s controlling shareholder, will transfer to the Series A and B Preferred Shareholder ordinary shares of the Company that Yingli Power holds pursuant to a pre-determined formula. The Company has agreed to convert such certain number of shares into Series A and B Preferred Shares at a ratio of 1 to 1. Management believes Tianwei Yingli met its 2006 Net Income target and as a result there was no purchase price adjustment in 2006. The 2007 purchase price adjustment will be waived if the Preferred Shares are converted to ordinary shares before the 2007 Net Income becomes available.

      The computation of diluted income per share for the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006, did not assume conversion of the Series A and B Preferred Shares because, when applying the if-converted method, the effect of the ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of Series A and B Preferred Shares, including the maximum number of 31,555,744 shares issuable under the conversion terms of the Series A and B Preferred Shares agreement as described in note 17, was anti-dilutive. The conversion of the Series A and B Preferred Shares was anti-dilutive because the amount of the accretion to the Series A and B Preferred Shares redemption value for the period per ordinary share obtainable upon conversion on a weighted average outstanding basis exceeded basic earnings per share.

      Potential dilutive securities also consisted of 5,458,768 ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of Mandatory Convertible Bonds payable to Yingli Power, 610,929 shares issuable upon the exercise of employee stock options and 2,068,252 ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase the Company’s shares as described in note 11. The conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Bonds payable to Yingli Power was anti-dilutive because the amount of interest expense attributable to the Mandatory Convertible Bonds payable to Yingli Power for the period per ordinary share obtainable upon conversion on a weighted average outstanding basis exceeded basic earnings per share. The employee stock options and the warrant issued to China Sunshine Investment Co., Ltd (note 11) to purchase the Company’s ordinary shares were anti-dilutive because the number of shares which could be acquired under the treasury stock method exceeded the number of shares required to be issued upon exercise of the employee stock options and the warrant.
      On August 25, 2006, Yingli Green Energy entered into a Sino-foreign equity joint venture company contract with Tianwei Baobian under which the Company granted to Tianwei Baobian a right to subscribe for newly issued ordinary shares of the Company in exchange for all but not part of Tianwei Baobian’s equity interest in Tianwei Yingli. Tianwei Baobian may exercise this subscription right only after certain conditions are satisfied following the completion of the Company’s IPO.

(22) Net Asset Purchase
      On March 31, 2005, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Baoding Rectifier Co., Ltd (“Baoding Rectifier”) for cash consideration of RMB 1,000,000, which was paid in August 2006. Baoding Rectifier is located next to the Company’s main operating plant in Baoding, PRC. Since 2003, Baoding Rectifier had discontinued its operations and was no longer producing or selling products or services. The Company acquired the assets of Baoding Rectifier in order to obtain the building and land use rights held by Baoding Rectifier and use it for its manufacturing operations. The acquired assets and liabilities did not constitute a business within the meaning of EITF 98-3 Determining Whether a Nonmonetory Transaction Involves Receipt of Productive Assets or of a Business. Therefore, the Company did not account for the acquisition of assets and liabilities as a business combination. The assets and liabilities acquired by the Company are stated at their relative fair values, as follows:
         
    RMB
     
Assets acquired:

(23) Step-up Acquisitions
     (a)  Goodwill
      The Company accounts for its step-up acquisitions of the equity interests in Tianwei Yingli using the purchase method. This method requires that the acquisition cost to be allocated to the assets acquired, including separately identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities assumed based on a pro-rata share of their estimated fair values. The Company makes estimates and judgments in determining the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on independent appraisal reports as well as its experience in valuation of similar assets and liabilities. If different judgments or assumptions were used, the amounts assigned to the individual acquired assets or liabilities could be materially different.
      The Company did not have any goodwill prior to November 20, 2006. Goodwill in the amount of RMB 3,984,994 arose during the period August 7, 2006 to December 31, 2006 resulting from the Company’s acquisition of 2.98% minority interest in Tianwei Yingli (as described below).

      Technical know-how represents self-developed technologies, which were feasible at the acquisition date and include the design and configuration of the Company’s PV manufacturing line, manufacturing technologies and process for high efficiency silicon solar cells and provision of innovations for continuous improvement of cell efficiencies and manufacturing cost reduction. The Company estimated that the economic useful life of technical know-how is 6 years by taking into consideration of the remaining life cycle of the current manufacturing technologies.
      The Company estimated the useful life of the customer relationships based primarily on the historical experience of the Company’s customer attrition rate and the Company estimates of sales to these customers in future years. A straight-line method of amortization has been adopted as the pattern in which the economic benefit of the customer relationship are used, can not be reliably determined. Order backlog represents several unfulfilled sales agreements where delivery of goods is scheduled through June 2008. The estimated fair values of short-term and long-term supply agreements were determined based on the present value of the after-tax cost savings of the Company’s long-term and short-term supply agreements. The after-tax cost savings of the Company’s long-term and short-term supply agreements were based on the difference of price of polysilicon between the agreed purchase price per the supply contracts and the forecasted spot market price at time of the forecasted inventory acquisition. The after-tax costs savings also considered the interest impact of making the pre-payments in accordance with the supply agreements payment terms.

(25) Subsequent Events
a)     Issuance of additional Series B Preferred Shares
      From January 1, 2007 through January 13, 2007, the Company issued an additional 930,714 Series B Preferred Shares to two investors for an aggregated purchase price of US$4,500,000. In connection with the issuance of these Series B Preferred Shares, the Company issued warrants to purchase 105,603 of ordinary shares to the investors. These warrants are subject to certain cancellation and return features as described in note 17.
b)     Insuance of restricted stock
      On January 19, 2007 and under the Plan, the Company’s board of directors granted to DBS Trustee Limited, or the “trustee”, an aggregate of 2,576,060 restricted shares for the benefit of 68 trust participants, consisting of an aggregate of 1,576,300 restricted shares granted to eight directors and officers of the Company and Tianwei Yingli and an aggregate of 999,760 restricted shares granted to 60 other employees pursuant to a restricted stock award agreement and a trust deed. The trustee will hold the restricted shares in trust and will be the registered holder of the restricted shares until such shares are vested, forfeited or repurchased by instructions to the trustee in connection with the administration of the trust. The fair value of each restricted share is RMB 38.58 (US$4.96) at the grant date as determined by the fair value of the underlying ordinary shares. The related compensation expense will be amortized on straight-line basis over a 5-year vesting period.
c)     Loans Guaranteed by Tianwei Group
      In January 2007, the Company received a loan extended by Bank of China to Tianwei Yingli in a principal amount of US$3.3 million at an interest rate of 6.21% per annum. The loan was guaranteed by Tianwei Group was and repaid on March 5, 2007.
      In February 2007, the Company obtained loans of RMB 145.0 million in the aggregate from China Everbright Bank, China CITIC Bank and Bank of Communications. The loans bear interest rate at 6.12% per annum and were guaranteed by Tianwei Baobian. The loans all mature within one year.
     d) Issuance of Additional Series B Warrants
      In March 2007, we entered into an agreement to issue to the Series B preferred shareholders (other than the three investors who had made advance payments) additional warrants with terms similar to the previously issued Series B Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 688,090 of our ordinary shares at a per share price of US$0.01 in exchange for the early termination of an escrow arrangement which removed the restriction on the proceeds of US$19.6 million that were received from the issuance and sale of the Series B Preferred Shares that took place from December 20, 2006 through January 13, 2007.
     e) Amendment to the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan and the Board of Directors’ Approval for New Grants
Amendment to the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan
      In April 2007, the Company’s board of directors approved, subject to shareholders’ approval, an amendment to the Company’s 2006 stock incentive plan to increase the number of ordinary shares that the Company is authorized to issue under the 2006 stock incentive plan from 3,394,054 shares to

AND
BAODING TIANWEI YINGLI NEW ENERGY RESOURCES CO., LTD AND SUBSIDIARY (“Predecessor”)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
8,240,658 shares. Among these shares, up to 2,715,243 shares may be issued for the purposes of granting awards of restricted shares and up to 5,525,415 shares may be issued for the purpose of granting options. The amendment did not change any other material provisions of the 2006 stock incentive plan.
The Board of Directors’ Approval of New Grants
      In April 2007, the board of directors approved to grant options to purchase an aggregate of 115,000 ordinary shares to three independent directors and one key employee, subject to the completion of the Company’s IPO. These options will have an exercise price per share equal to the public offering price.
      In April 2007, the board of directors also approved to grant an aggregate of 45,000 restricted shares to the trustee for the benefit of one key employee and one third-party service provider.
(26) Unaudited Pro Forma Information
Pro Forma Condensed Balance Sheet
      If the IPO is completed under the terms presently anticipated that would result in the Company receiving net proceeds of at least US$100 million and the Company achieving a market capitalization exceeding US$750 million, all of the Company’s Series A and Series B redeemable convertible preferred shares and Mandatory Convertible Bonds payable to Yingli Power will automatically convert into 8,081,081, 23,474,663 and 5,458,768 of ordinary shares, respectively, as of the closing of the offering. The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet reflects the conversion of the Series A and Series B redeemable convertible preferred shares into ordinary shares on a one for one basis and the conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Bonds payable to Yingli Power. The number of ordinary shares to be issued upon the conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Bonds payable to Yingli Power is equivalent to a 3.73% effective equity interest in Yingli Green Energy on a fully diluted basis, which the Company has estimated based on the number of shares to be issued upon conversion based on Yingli Green Energy’s outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis and the relevant ownership percentage in Tianwei Yingli.

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
      Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. Our amended and restated articles of association, which will become effective upon the closing of this offering, will provide for indemnification of officers and directors for losses, damages, costs and expenses incurred in their capacities as such, except through their own dishonesty, fraud or default.
      The form of Underwriting Agreement to be filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this registration statement will also provide for indemnification of us and our officers and directors.
      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us under the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
ITEM 7. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
      During the past three years, we have issued the following securities (including options to acquire our ordinary shares). We believe that each of the following issuances was exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act or under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act regarding transactions not involving a public offering.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriter at the closing specified in the underwriting agreements, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriter to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant under the provisions described in Item 6, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
      (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
      (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
      (3) For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
      (4) For the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
  (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
 
  (ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
 
  (iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
 
  (iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

[address], [number] of shares of the Company.

-------------------------------------   ----------------------------------------
Transferor                              Witness


-------------------------------------   ----------------------------------------
Transferee                              Witness

12.3 Such instrument of transfer shall be signed by or on behalf of the transferor and transferee, provided that, in the case of a fully paid share, the Board may accept the instrument signed by or on behalf of the transferor alone. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of such share until the same has been transferred to the transferee in the Register of Members.

12.4 The Board may refuse to recognise any instrument of transfer unless it is accompanied by the certificate in respect of the shares to which it relates and by such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer.

12.5 The joint holders of any share may transfer such share to one or more of such joint holders, and the surviving holder or holders of any share previously held by them jointly with a deceased Member may transfer any such share to the executors or administrators of such deceased Member.

12.6 The Board may in its absolute discretion and without assigning any reason therefor refuse to register the transfer of a share. If the Board refuses to register a transfer of any share the Secretary shall, within three months after the date on which the transfer was lodged with the Company, send to the transferor and transferee notice of the refusal.

12.7 Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Articles, the Company shall be obliged to enforce any mortgage, charge or other security interest over its shares (a "Security Interest") pursuant to the Share Charge.

12.8 Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Articles, the Directors shall not register a transfer of any shares which are subject to a Security Interest without the prior written consent of the person to whom the Security Interest is granted, and further provided that the Directors shall, upon presentation of a duly completed instrument of transfer, register DB Trustees (Hong Kong) Limited as a shareholder, and any interest of any person, including, without limitation, DB and any person whom DB Trustees (Hong Kong) Limited nominates pursuant to the Share Charge, to whom a Security Interest is granted, following the enforcement of the Security Interest.

13. TRANSMISSION OF REGISTERED SHARES

13.1 In the case of the death of a Member, the survivor or survivors where the deceased Member was a joint holder, and the legal personal representatives of the deceased Member where the deceased Member was a sole holder, shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to the deceased Member's interest in the

16

shares. Nothing herein contained shall release the estate of a deceased joint holder from any liability in respect of any share which had been jointly held by such deceased Member with other persons. Subject to the provisions of Section 39 of the Law, for the purpose of this Article, legal personal representative means the executor or administrator of a deceased Member or such other person as the Board may, in its absolute discretion, decide as being properly authorised to deal with the shares of a deceased Member.

13.2 Any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of any Member may be registered as a Member upon such evidence as the Board may deem sufficient or may elect to nominate some person to be registered as a transferee of such share, and in such case the person becoming entitled shall execute in favour of such nominee an instrument of transfer in writing in the form, or as near thereto as circumstances admit, of the following:

Transfer by a Person Becoming Entitled on Death/Bankruptcy of a Member

I/We, having become entitled in consequence of the [death/bankruptcy] of [name and address of deceased Member] to [number] share(s) standing in the Register of Members of the Company in the name of the said
[name of deceased/bankrupt Member] instead of being registered myself/ourselves, elect to have [name of transferee] (the "Transferee") registered as a transferee of such share(s) and I/we do hereby accordingly transfer the said share(s) to the Transferee to hold the same unto the Transferee, his or her executors, administrators and assigns, subject to the conditions on which the same were held at the time of the execution hereof; and the Transferee does hereby agree to take the said share(s) subject to the same conditions.

DATED this [__] day of [__], 200[__]

Signed by:                              In the presence of:

13.3 On the presentation of the foregoing materials to the Board, accompanied by such evidence as the Board may require to prove the title of the transferor, the transferee shall be registered as a Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board shall, in any case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as it would have had in the case of a transfer of the share by that Member before such Member's death or bankruptcy, as the case may be.

13.4 Where two or more persons are registered as joint holders of a share or shares, then in the event of the death of any joint holder or holders the remaining joint holder or holders shall be absolutely entitled to the said share or shares and the Company shall recognise no claim in respect of the estate of any joint holder except in the case of the last survivor of such joint holders.

ALTERATION OF SHARE CAPITAL

14. POWER TO ALTER CAPITAL

14.1 Subject to the Law and these Articles, the Company may from time to time by ordinary resolution alter the conditions of its Memorandum of Association to increase its share capital by new shares of such amount as it thinks expedient or, if the Company has shares

17

without par value, increase its share capital by such number of shares without nominal or par value, or increase the aggregate consideration for which its shares may be issued, as it thinks expedient.

14.2 Subject to the Law and these Articles, the Company may from time to time by ordinary resolution alter the conditions of its Memorandum of Association to:

(a) consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into shares of larger amount than its existing shares;

(b) subdivide its shares or any of them into shares of an amount smaller than that fixed by the Memorandum of Association; or

(c) cancel shares which at the date of the passing of the resolution have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person, and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled or, in the case of shares without par value, diminish the number of shares into which its capital is divided.

14.3 For the avoidance of doubt it is declared that paragraph 14.2(a) and
(b) above do not apply if at any time the shares of the Company have no par value.

14.4 Subject to the Law, the Company may from time to time by special resolution reduce its share capital in any way or, subject to Article 77, alter any conditions of its Memorandum of Association relating to share capital.

15. VARIATION OF RIGHTS ATTACHING TO SHARES

Subject to these Articles, if, at any time, the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound-up, be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of three-fourths of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a resolution passed by a majority of the votes cast at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of the class at which meeting the necessary quorum shall be two persons at least holding or representing by proxy one third of the issued shares of the class. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith.

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITALISATION

16. DIVIDENDS

16.1 The Board may, subject to these Articles (in particular, Schedule I hereof) and any direction of the Company in general meeting, declare a dividend to be paid to the Members, in proportion to the number of shares held by them, and such dividend may be paid in cash or wholly or partly in specie in which case the Board may fix the value for distribution in specie of any assets. No unpaid dividend shall bear interest as against the Company.

18

16.2 Dividends may be declared and paid out of profits of the Company, realised or unrealised, or from any reserve set aside from profits which the Directors determine is no longer needed, or not in the same amount. Dividends may also be declared and paid out of share premium account or any other fund or account which can be authorised for this purpose in accordance with the Law.

16.3 With the sanction of an ordinary resolution of the Company, the Directors may determine that a dividend shall be paid wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets (which may consist of the shares or securities of any other company) and may settle all questions concerning such distribution. Without limiting the foregoing generally, the Directors may fix the value of such specific assets, may determine that cash payments shall be made to some Members in lieu of specific assets and may vest any such specific assets in trustees on such terms as the Directors think fit.

16.4 The Company may pay dividends in proportion to the amount paid up on each share where a larger amount is paid up on some shares than on others.

16.5 The Board may declare and make such other distributions (in cash or in specie) to the Members as may be lawfully made out of the assets of the Company. No unpaid distribution shall bear interest as against the Company.

16.6 The Board may fix any date as the record date for determining the Members entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, but, unless so fixed, the record date shall be the date of the Directors' resolution declaring same.

17. POWER TO SET ASIDE PROFITS

17.1 Subject to these Articles, the Board may, before declaring a dividend, set aside out of the surplus or profits of the Company, such sum as it thinks proper as a reserve to be used to meet contingencies or for equalising dividends or for any other purpose. Pending application, such sums may be employed in the business of the Company or invested, and need not be kept separate from other assets of the Company. The Directors may also, without placing the same to reserve, carry forward any profit which they decide not to distribute.

17.2 Subject to any direction from the Company in general meeting, the Directors may on behalf of the Company exercise all the powers and options conferred on the Company by the Law in regard to the Company's share premium account.

18. METHOD OF PAYMENT

18.1 Any dividend, interest, or other monies payable in cash in respect of the shares may be paid by cheque or draft sent through the post directed to the Member at such Member's address in the Register of Members, or to such person and to such address as the holder may in writing direct.

18.2 In the case of joint holders of shares, any dividend, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of shares may be paid by cheque or draft sent through the post directed to the address of the holder first named in the Register of Members, or to such person and to such address as the joint holders may in writing direct. If two or more persons are

19

registered as joint holders of any shares any one can give an effectual receipt for any dividend paid in respect of such shares.

18.3 The Board may deduct from the dividends or distributions payable to any Member all monies due from such Member to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.

19. CAPITALISATION

19.1 The Board may resolve to capitalise any sum for the time being standing to the credit of any of the Company's share premium or other reserve accounts or to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution by applying such sum in paying up unissued shares to be allotted as fully paid bonus shares pro rata to the Members.

19.2 The Board may resolve to capitalise any sum for the time being standing to the credit of a reserve account or sums otherwise available for dividend or distribution by applying such amounts in paying up in full partly paid or nil paid shares of those Members who would have been entitled to such sums if they were distributed by way of dividend or distribution.

(ii) The Company shall use its reasonably best efforts to procure that the Operating Subsidiary and any other Group Company take actions only as directed or permitted by the Company's Board.

(D) LIQUIDATION RIGHTS

(i) Liquidation Preferences. Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary (a "LIQUIDATION EVENT"):

(a) Before any distribution or payment of assets or surplus funds of the Company shall be made to the holders of any Ordinary Shares and any other equity securities of the Company, each holder of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, on parity with each other, an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the original issue price of each of the Preferred Shares for each Preferred Share in issue ("ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE") (in each case as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions), plus all dividends accrued or declared and unpaid with respect thereto (as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions) per Preferred Share then held by such holder. If, upon any such liquidation, distribution, or winding up, the entire assets of the Company shall be insufficient to make payment of the foregoing amounts in full on all Preferred Shares, then such assets shall be distributed among the holders of Preferred Shares, ratably in proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled thereon. With respect to the Series A Shares, the Original Issue Price shall be US$2.1049. With respect to the Series B Shares, the Original Issue Price shall be US$4.835.

(b) After distribution or payment in full of the amount distributable or payable on the Preferred Shares pursuant to the above paragraph, the remaining assets of the Company available for distribution to members shall be distributed ratably among the holders of outstanding Preferred Shares and Ordinary Shares in proportion to the number of outstanding shares held by each such holder, treating for this purpose all such securities as if they had been converted into Ordinary Shares pursuant to the terms of these Articles immediately prior to such dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company.

(c) In the event that the Company proposes to distribute assets other than cash in

39

connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (not including a Deemed Liquidation Event), the value of the assets to be distributed to the holder of the Preferred Shares and Ordinary Shares shall be determined in good faith by the liquidator (or, in the case of any proposed distribution in connection with a transaction which is a Deemed Liquidation Event hereunder, by the Board, which decision shall include the affirmative vote of the Preferred Shareholder Directors, if any). Any securities not subject to investment letter or similar restrictions on free marketability shall be valued as follows:

(x) If traded on a securities exchange, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the security's closing prices on such exchange over the thirty (30) day period ending one (1) day prior to the distribution;

(y) If actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid prices over the thirty (30) day period ending three (3) days prior to the distribution; and

(z) If there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the liquidator (or, in the case of any proposed distribution in connection with a transaction which is a deemed liquidation hereunder, by the Board).

The method of valuation of securities subject to restrictions on free marketability shall be adjusted to make an appropriate discount from the market value determined as above in sub-paragraphs (x), (y) or (z) of this Clause (D)(i) to reflect the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the liquidator (or, in the case of any proposed distribution in connection with a transaction which is a deemed liquidation hereunder, by the Board, which decision shall include the affirmative vote of at the Preferred Shareholder Directors, if any). The holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series A Shares or the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series B Shares shall have the right to challenge any determination by the liquidator or the Board, as the case may be, of fair market value pursuant to this Clause (D)(i), in which case the determination of fair market value shall be made by an independent appraiser selected jointly by the liquidator or the Board, as the case may be, and the challenging parties, the cost of such appraisal to be borne equally by the Company and the challenging holders of Series A Shares or the Series B Shares, as the case may be.

(ii) Deemed Liquidation. The following events shall be treated as a Liquidation Event (each, a "DEEMED LIQUIDATION EVENT") unless waived by the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series A Shares and a majority of the outstanding Series B Shares, voting as separate classes on an as-converted basis:

(a) any consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Company or the Operating Subsidiary with or into any other Person or other corporate reorganization, in which the members of the Company or the Operating Subsidiary, as the case may be, immediately after to such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or

40

reorganization, own less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company or the Operating Subsidiary, as the case may be, immediately after such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or reorganization, or any transaction or series of related transactions to which the Company or the Operating Subsidiary, as the case may be, is a party in which in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company or the Operating Subsidiary, as the case may be, is transferred, but excluding any transaction effected solely for tax purposes or to change the domicile of the Company or the Operating Subsidiary, as the case may be; or

(b) a sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the Operating Subsidiary.

Upon any Deemed Liquidation Event, any proceeds resulting to the shareholders of the Company therefrom shall be distributed in accordance with the terms of Clause (D)(i) above; provided, however, if such proceeds are in an amount greater than $1,000,000,000, such proceeds shall be distributed ratably among the holders of outstanding Preferred Shares and Ordinary Shares in proportion to the number of outstanding shares held by each such holder, treating for this purpose all such securities as if they had been converted into Ordinary Shares pursuant to the terms of these Articles immediately prior to such Deemed Liquidation Event.

(E) CONVERSION RIGHTS

(i) The holders of the Preferred Shares shall have the following rights described below with respect to the conversion of the Preferred Shares into Ordinary Shares. The number of Ordinary Shares to which a holder shall be entitled upon conversion of any Series A Shares shall be the quotient of the Original Issue Price for the Series A Shares divided by the then-effective Series A Conversion Price (the "SERIES A CONVERSION PRICE") and the number of Ordinary Shares to which a holder shall be entitled upon conversion of any Series B Shares shall be the quotient of the Original Issue Price for the Series B Shares divided by the then-effective Series B Conversion Price (the "SERIES A CONVERSION PRICE" and the "SERIES B CONVERSION PRICE" shall each hereinafter be referred to as the "CONVERSION PRICE"). The initial Conversion Price shall equal the Original Issue Price. For the avoidance of doubt, the initial conversion ratio for the Preferred Shares to Ordinary Shares shall be 1:1, subject to adjustments of the Conversion Price, as set forth below:

(a) Optional Conversion.

(1) Subject to complying with the requirements of the Law and Clause (E)(i), any Preferred Share may, at the option of the holder thereof, be converted at any time into fully-paid and nonassessable Ordinary Shares based on the then-effective Conversion Price.

(2) The holder of any Preferred Shares who desires to convert such shares into Ordinary Shares shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Company or any transfer agent for the Preferred Shares, and shall give written notice to the Company at such

41

office that such holder has elected to convert such shares. Such notice shall state the number of Preferred Shares being converted. Thereupon, the Company shall promptly issue and deliver to such holder at such office a certificate or certificates for the number of Ordinary Shares to which the holder is entitled and update the Register of Members accordingly. No fractional Ordinary Shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, and the number of Ordinary Shares to be so issued to a holder of Preferred Shares upon the conversion of such Preferred Shares (after aggregating all fractional Ordinary Shares that would be issued to such holder) shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made at the close of business on the date of the surrender of the certificates representing the Preferred Shares to be converted, and the person entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Ordinary Shares on such date.

(b) Automatic Conversion.

(1) Without any action being required by the holder of such share and whether or not the certificates representing such share are surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent, each Preferred Share shall automatically be converted, based on the then-effective Conversion Price, into Ordinary Shares upon the first to occur of (i) immediately prior to the closing of a Qualified IPO, and (ii) the election of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares then outstanding, voting together as a single class. Any conversion pursuant to this Clause shall be referred to as an "Automatic Conversion."

(2) The Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates for any Ordinary Shares issuable upon the Automatic Conversion of any Preferred Shares unless the certificate or certificates evidencing such Preferred Shares is either delivered as provided below to the Company or any transfer agent for the Preferred Shares, or the holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificate. The Company shall, as soon as practicable after receipt of certificates for the Preferred Shares, or satisfactory agreement for indemnification in the case of a lost certificate, promptly issue and deliver at its office to the holder thereof a certificate or certificates for the number of Ordinary Shares to which the holder is entitled. No fractional Ordinary Shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, and the number of Ordinary Shares to be so issued to a holder of converting Preferred Shares (after aggregating all fractional Ordinary Shares that would be issued to such holder) shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. Any person entitled to receive Ordinary Shares issuable upon the Automatic Conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Ordinary Shares on the date of such conversion.

42

(c) Conversion Mechanism. The conversion hereunder of any Preferred Share shall be effected in the following manner:

(1) The Company shall redeem each Preferred Share for aggregate consideration (the "Redemption Amount") equal to (a) the aggregate par value of any Ordinary Shares of the Company to be issued upon such conversion and (b) the aggregate value, as determined by the Board of Directors, of any other assets which are to be distributed upon such conversion.

(2) Concurrent with the redemption of such shares, the Company shall apply the Redemption Amount for the benefit of the holder of the Preferred Shares to pay for any Ordinary Shares of the Company issuable, and any other assets distributable, to such holder in connection with such conversion.

(3) Upon application of the Redemption Amount, the Company shall issue to the holder of the Preferred Shares all Ordinary Shares issuable, and distribute to such holder all other assets distributable, upon such conversion.

(d) Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time as provided below:

(1) Adjustment for Share Splits and Consolidations. If the Company shall at any time, or from time to time, effect a subdivision of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. Conversely, if the Company shall at any time, or from time to time, consolidate the outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the consolidation shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or consolidation becomes effective.

(2) Adjustment for Ordinary Share Dividends and Distributions. If the Company makes (or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive) a dividend or other distribution to the holders of Ordinary Shares payable in additional Ordinary Shares, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance (or in the event such record date is fixed, as of the close of business on such record date) by multiplying such Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction (i) the numerator of which is the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (ii) the denominator of which is the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of

43

business on such record date plus the number of Ordinary Shares issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

(3) Adjustments for Other Dividends. If the Company at any time, or from time to time, makes (or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive) a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Company other than Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Share Equivalents, then, and in each such event, provision shall be made so that, upon conversion of any Preferred Share thereafter, the holder thereof shall receive, in addition to the number of Ordinary Shares issuable thereon, the amount of securities of the Company which the holder of such share would have received had the Preferred Shares been converted into Ordinary Shares immediately prior to such event, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

(4) Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations, Reclassifications, Exchanges, Substitutions. If at any time, or from time to time, any capital reorganization or reclassification of the Ordinary Shares (other than as a result of a share dividend, subdivision, split or consolidation otherwise treated above) occurs or the Company is consolidated, merged or amalgamated with or into another Person (other than a Deemed Liquidation Event), then in any such event, provision shall be made so that, upon conversion of any Preferred Share thereafter, the holder thereof shall receive the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which the holder of such share would have received had the Preferred Shares been converted into Ordinary Shares on the date of such event, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein, or with respect to such other securities or property, in accordance with any terms applicable thereto.

(5) Sale of Shares below the Conversion Price. In the event the Company shall at any time after the Original Issue Date issue Additional Ordinary Shares, without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue, then the Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest $0.01) determined in accordance with the following formula:

CP2 = CP1 * (A + B) / (A + C)

For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply:

(aa) CP2 shall mean the Conversion Price in effect immediately after such issue of Additional Ordinary Shares;

(bb) CP1 shall mean the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue of Additional Ordinary Shares;

44

(cc) "A" shall mean the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding and deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Ordinary Shares (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of Ordinary Share Equivalents (including the Preferred Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issue));

(dd) "B" shall mean the number of Ordinary Shares that would have been issued if such Additional Ordinary Shares had been issued at a price per share equal to CP1 (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by CP1); and

(ee) "C" shall mean the number of such Additional Ordinary Shares issued in such transaction.

(e) Determination of Consideration.

(1) For the purpose of making any adjustment to the Conversion Price or number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, as provided in Clause (E)(i)(d)(5):

(i) To the extent it consists of cash, the consideration received by the Company for any issue or sale of securities shall be computed at the net amount of cash received by the Company after deduction of any underwriting or similar commissions, compensations, discounts or concessions paid or allowed by the Company in connection with such issue or sale;

(ii) To the extent it consists of property other than cash, consideration other than cash received by the Company for any issue or sale of securities shall be computed at the fair market value thereof (as determined in good faith by a majority of the Board of Directors including the Preferred Shareholder Directors, if any), as of the date of the adoption of the resolution specifically authorizing such issue or sale, irrespective of any accounting treatment of such property; and

(iii) If Additional Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Share Equivalents exercisable, convertible or exchangeable for Additional Ordinary Shares are issued or sold together with other stock or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, the consideration received for the Additional Ordinary Shares or such Ordinary Share Equivalents shall be computed as that portion of the consideration received (as determined in good faith by a majority of the Board of Directors including the Preferred Shareholder Directors, if any) to be allocable to such Additional

45

Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Share Equivalents.

(iv) For the purpose of making any adjustment to the Conversion Price provided in Clause (E)(i)(d)(5), if at any time, or from time to time, the Company issues any Ordinary Share Equivalents exercisable, convertible or exchangeable for Additional Ordinary Shares and the Effective Conversion Price of such Ordinary Share Equivalents is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance, then, for purposes of calculating any adjustment with respect to the Conversion Price, at the time of such issuance the Company shall be deemed to have issued the maximum number of Additional Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of such Ordinary Share Equivalents and to have received in consideration for each Additional Ordinary Share deemed issued an amount equal to the Effective Conversion Price.

(f) Other Dilutive Events. In case any event shall occur as to which the other provisions of these Articles are not strictly applicable, but the failure to make any adjustment to the Conversion Price would not fairly protect the conversion rights of the Preferred Shares in accordance with the essential intent and principles hereof, then, in each such case, the Company, in good faith, shall determine the appropriate adjustment to be made, on a basis consistent with the essential intent and principles established in these Articles, necessary to preserve, without dilution, the conversion rights of the Preferred Shares.

(g) Certificate of Adjustment. In the case of any adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price, the Company, at its sole expense, shall compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the provisions hereof and prepare a certificate showing such adjustment or readjustment, and shall mail such certificate, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each registered holder of Preferred Shares at the holder's address as shown in the Company's books. The certificate shall set forth such adjustment or readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (i) the consideration received or deemed to be received by the Company for any Additional Ordinary Shares issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (ii) the number of Additional Ordinary Shares issued or sold or deemed to be issued or sold, (iii) the Conversion Price in effect before and after such adjustment or readjustment, and (iv) the number of Ordinary Shares and the type and amount, if any, of other property which would be received upon conversion of the Preferred Shares after such adjustment or readjustment.

(h) Notice of Record Date. In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the type or types requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Price or the number or character of the Preferred Shares as set forth herein, the Company shall give notice to the holders of the Preferred Shares, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of

46

such notice) on the Conversion Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon the occurrence of such action or deliverable upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares. In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least twenty (20) days prior to the date so fixed, and in the case of all other actions, such notice shall be given at least thirty (30) days prior to the taking of such proposed action.

(i) Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. Notices. Any notice required or permitted pursuant to Clause (E)(i) shall be given in writing and shall be given either personally or by sending it by next-day or second-day courier service, fax, electronic mail or similar means to each holder of record at the address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company. Where a notice is sent by next-day or second-day courier service, service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by properly addressing, pre-paying and sending by next-day or second-day service through an internationally-recognized courier a letter containing the notice, with a confirmation of delivery, and to have been effected at the expiration of two days after the letter containing the same is sent as aforesaid. Where a notice is sent by fax or electronic mail, service of the notice shall be deemed to be effected by properly addressing, and sending such notice through a transmitting organization, with a written confirmation of delivery, and to have been effected on the day the same is sent as aforesaid.

(j) Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all taxes (other than taxes based upon income) and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to the issue or delivery of Ordinary Shares upon conversion of Preferred Shares, excluding any tax or other charge imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Ordinary Shares in a name other than that in which the Preferred Share so converted were registered.

(F) REDEMPTION

(i) Except as provided for in this Article, the Preferred Shares shall not be redeemable.

(a) Optional Redemption.

(1) Prior to the consummation of a Qualified IPO, the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares or Series B Shares, as the case may be, may, by written request to the Company (the "REDEMPTION REQUEST"), require that the Company redeem all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Preferred Shares held by such holders in accordance with the following terms; provided that the holders of Series A Shares and Series B Shares may not exercise such right prior to the third anniversary of the initial issuance of the first Series A Share. A Redemption Request shall be given by hand or by mail to the registered office of the Company.

(2) Following receipt of a Redemption Request, the Company shall within thirty (30) calendar days give written notice (a "REDEMPTION NOTICE") to each holder of record of Preferred Shares, at the address last shown on the

records of the Company for such holder(s). Such Redemption Notice shall indicate that holders of Series A Shares or Series B Shares, as the case may be, have elected redemption of all of their Preferred Shares pursuant to the provisions of these Articles, shall specify the redemption date, shall direct the holders of such shares to submit their share certificates to the Company on or before the scheduled Redemption Date (as defined below), and shall direct the holders of Preferred Shares who have not otherwise elected to redeem their Preferred Shares of the process whereby such other holders also may elect to redeem their Preferred Shares pursuant to the provisions of these Articles. If the Company reasonably expects that the Company's assets or funds which will be legally available on the Redemption Date are insufficient to pay in full each Redemption Price (as defined below) to be paid at such Redemption Date, then the Company shall so specify in the Redemption Notice and shall also specify the number of the Series A Shares and/or Series B Shares, as the case may be, that the Company reasonably expects it will have sufficient funds to redeem in full on the Redemption Date.

(3) The redemption price for each Preferred Share redeemed pursuant to these Articles shall be equal to the Original Issue Price for such Preferred Share plus the sum of an amount representing an internal rate of return of twelve percent (12%) per annum on the Original Issue Price and all dividends accrued and unpaid with respect to such Preferred Share (as adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions) calculated from the date of issuance of such Preferred Share (the "REDEMPTION PRICE"). The redemption of any Preferred Shares pursuant to these Articles will take place within sixty (60) days of the date of such Redemption Notice at the offices of the Company, or such later date or other place as the holders electing to redeem their Preferred Shares and the Company may mutually agree in writing (each a "REDEMPTION DATE"). At a Redemption Date, subject to applicable law, the Company will, from any source of assets or funds legally available therefor, redeem each Preferred Share that has been submitted for redemption by paying in cash therefor the Redemption Price for such Preferred Share, against surrender by such holder at the Company's principal office of the certificate representing such share. From and after a Redemption Date, if the Company makes the Redemption Price available to a holder of a Preferred Share, all rights of such holder (except the right to receive the Redemption Price) will cease with respect to such Preferred Share, and such Preferred Share will not thereafter be transferred on the books of the Company or be deemed outstanding for any purpose whatsoever.

(b) Insufficient Funds. If the Company's assets or funds which are legally available on any Redemption Date are insufficient to pay in full the Redemption Price in full on all Preferred Shares to be redeemed on such Redemption Date, or if the Company is otherwise prohibited by applicable law from making such redemption, those assets or funds which are legally available shall be used to the extent permitted by applicable law

48

to pay all Redemption Prices due on such Redemption Date ratably in proportion to the full amounts to which the holders to which such payments are due would otherwise be respectively entitled thereon. Thereafter, all assets or funds of the Company that become legally available for the redemption of shares shall immediately be used to pay the Redemption Prices which the Company did not pay on the date that the payment of such Redemption Prices were due, without limiting any rights of the holders of Preferred Shares which are set forth in the Memorandum and these Articles, or are otherwise available under law, the balance of any shares subject to redemption hereunder with respect to which the Company has become obligated to pay the Redemption Price but which it has not paid in full shall continue to have all the powers, designations, preferences and relative participating, optional, and other special rights (including, without limitation, rights to accrue dividends) which such Preferred Shares had prior to such date, until the Redemption Price has been paid in full with respect to such Preferred Shares.

(c) No Reissuance of Preferred Shares. No Preferred Share acquired by the Company by reason of redemption, purchase, conversion or otherwise shall be reissued.

Subject to Clauses (B) and (C) hereunder, the Company grants to each of the holders of Preferred Shares then outstanding the right of participation (the "RIGHT OF PARTICIPATION") to purchase its Pro Rata Share of New Securities which the Company may, from time to time prior to the Qualified IPO, propose to allot and issue; provided that (i) no holder of Series A Shares may exercise its Right of Participation unless the Majority of the Series A Shareholders elect to exercise such right and (ii) no holder of Series B Shares may exercise its Right of Participation unless the Lead Series B Shareholder elects to exercise such right. The Company shall offer to each holder of Preferred Shares for subscription up to its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities on the same terms and at the same price at which the Company proposes to allot and issue the New Securities.

(B) ISSUANCE NOTICE.

(i) In the event the Company proposes to issue New Securities, it shall give the holders of the Preferred Shares then outstanding a written notice (the "ISSUANCE NOTICE") of the Company's intention, describing the type of New Securities, the price, the terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same, an offer for subscription the aggregate number of New Securities that holders of the Series A Shares as a single class and holders of the Series B Shares as a single class are each entitled to purchase pursuant to Clause (A) above, a statement that all such holders shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the Issuance Notice to accept the offer for subscription under the Issuance Notice (the "ISSUANCE NOTICE PERIOD"), and a statement that no such holder shall be entitled to exercise the Right of Participation unless (i) in the case of the holders of Series A Shares, the Majority of the Series A Shareholders must exercise such right and (ii) in the case of the holders of Series B Shares, the Lead Series B Shareholder must exercise such right.

(ii) If the Majority of the Series A Shareholders elect to exercise the Right of Participation with the Issuance Notice Period, each such holder may elect to purchase up to its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities for the price and upon the terms specified in the Issuance Notice by (a) giving written notice to the Company within the Issuance Notice Period and (b) sending payment for its Pro Rata Share of New Securities to the Company.

(iii) If the Lead Series B Shareholder elects to exercise the Right of Participation with the Issuance Notice Period, each such holder may elect to purchase up to its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities for the price and upon the terms specified in the Issuance Notice by (a) giving written notice to the Company within the Issuance Notice Period and (b) sending payment for its Pro Rata Share of New Securities to the Company.

(C) SALE OF NEW SECURITIES.

(i) If the Majority of the Series A Shareholders fail to exercise the Right of Participation within the Issuance Notice Period, the Company shall have sixty (60) days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of New Securities covered by the Issuance Notice shall be closed, if at all, within thirty (30) days after the date of such agreement) to allot and issue the New Securities, at a price and upon general terms no

50

more favorable to the subscriber of the New Securities than specified in the Issuance Notice. If the number of New Securities which the Majority of the Series A Shareholders elect to subscribe in the aggregate is less the aggregate number of New Securities that the holders of Series A Shares are entitled to purchase as stated in the Issuance Notice, the Company shall have sixty (60) days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of New Securities covered by the Issuance Notice shall be closed, if at all, within thirty (30) days after the date of such agreement) to allot and issue up to such number of the New Securities as equal to the difference between the number of New Securities which the Majority of the Series A Shareholders elect to subscribe in the aggregate and the aggregate number of New Securities that the holders of Series A Shares are entitled to purchase as stated in the Issuance Notice, at a price and upon general terms no more favorable to the subscriber of the New Securities than specified in the Issuance Notice. In the event the Company has not allotted and issued the New Securities within this ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not thereafter allot or issue any New Securities without first offering the New Securities to holders of the Series A Shares in the manner provided above.

(ii) If the Lead Series B Shareholder fails to exercise the Right of Participation within the Issuance Notice Period, the Company shall have sixty (60) days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of New Securities covered by the Issuance Notice shall be closed, if at all, within thirty (30) days after the date of such agreement) to allot and issue the New Securities, at a price and upon general terms no more favorable to the subscriber of the New Securities than specified in the Issuance Notice. If the number of New Securities which the Lead Series B Shareholder elects to subscribe in the aggregate is less the aggregate number of New Securities that the holders of Series B Shares are entitled to purchase as stated in the Issuance Notice, the Company shall have sixty (60) days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of New Securities covered by the Issuance Notice shall be closed, if at all, within thirty (30) days after the date of such agreement) to allot and issue up to such number of the New Securities as equal to the difference between the number of New Securities which the Lead Series B Shareholder elects to subscribe in the aggregate and the aggregate number of New Securities that the holders of Series B Shares are entitled to purchase as stated in the Issuance Notice, at a price and upon general terms no more favorable to the subscriber of the New Securities than specified in the Issuance Notice. In the event the Company has not allotted and issued the New Securities within this ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not thereafter allot or issue any New Securities without first offering the New Securities to holders of the Series B Shares in the manner provided above.

51

SCHEDULE III

(A) RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.

(i) Subject to the provisions of this Clause (A) and Clauses (E) and (G) hereof, if the Founder proposes to sell or otherwise transfer, directly or indirectly ("TRANSFER"), any interest in any Ordinary Shares or other voting securities of the Company owned by the Founder (the "FOUNDER SHARES"), then each of the holders of the Preferred Shares shall have a right of first refusal (the "RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL") to purchase the Founder Shares proposed to be Transferred; provided that with respect each such Transfer, (i) no holder of Series A Shares may exercise its Right of First Refusal unless the Majority of the Series A Shareholders elect to exercise such right and (ii) no holder of Series B Shares may exercise its Right of First Refusal unless the Lead Series B Shareholder elects to exercise such right.

(ii) The Founder shall give a written notice (the "Transfer Notice") to each of the holder the Preferred Shares describing fully the proposed Transfer, including the number of shares proposed to be Transferred, the proposed Transfer price, the name and address of the proposed Transferee and a statement that no such holder may exercise the Right of First Refusal unless (i) in the case of the holder of Series A Shares, the Majority of the Series A Shareholders must exercise such right and (ii) in the case of the holder of Series B Shares, the Lead Series B Shareholder must exercise such right. The Transfer Notice shall be accompanied by a written certification by the Founder that the proposed transferee is a bona fide purchaser and the Transfer Notice constitutes a binding commitment of the Founder and the proposed transferee, with or without conditions, for the Transfer of that Founder Shares subject to the Right of First Refusal of the Majority of the Series A Shareholders or the Lead Series B Shareholder, as the case may be.

(iii) The holders of the Preferred Shares shall then have the right to purchase up to all of the Founder Shares subject to the Transfer Notice at a price per share equal to the proposed per share transfer price, by delivery of a notice of exercise of the Right of First Refusal within thirty (30) days after the date the Transfer Notice is delivered to such holders; provided that (i) in the case of the Series A Shareholders, the Majority of the Series A Shareholders have elected to exercise such right and (ii) in the case of the Series B Shareholders, the Lead Series B Shareholder has elected to exercise such right.

(B) CO-SALE RIGHT.

(i) General. If the Founder proposes to Transfer any Founder Shares or any interest therein to any person or entity, each holder of the Preferred Shares shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Founder within thirty (30) days after the date the Transfer Notice is delivered to such holder, to participate in such sale of Founder Shares on substantially the same terms and conditions applicable to the Founder (the "CO-SALE RIGHT"); provided, however, that (i) the Co-Sale Right shall not apply to any Transfer of Founder Shares pursuant to the exercise of the Right of First Refusal under Clause (A) and (ii) with respect to each such Transfer, (A) no holder of Series A Shares may exercise its Co-Sale Right unless the Majority of the Series A Shareholders elect to exercise such right and (B) no holder of Series B Shares may exercise its Co-Sale Right unless the Lead

52

Series B Shareholder elects to exercise such right.

(ii) Notice of Exercise.

(a) Notice of exercise of the Co-Sale Right shall indicate the number of Founder Shares each holder of the Preferred Shares wishes to Transfer under the Co-Sale Right and include an acknowledgment from such holder that it may not exercise its Co-Sale Right unless (A) in the case of the holders of Series A Shares, the Majority of the Series A Shareholders must exercise such right and (ii) in the case of the holders of Series B Shares, the Lead Series B Shareholder must exercise such right.

(b) If the Majority of the Series A Shareholders elect to exercise the Co-Sale Right, the holders of the Series A Shares may Transfer in the aggregate up to the number of shares of Founder Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate number of the Founder Shares proposed to be Transferred as set out in the Transfer Notice by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the number of Shares held in the aggregate by such Majority of the Series A Shareholders immediately before the Transfer and (y) the denominator of which is the total number of the Shares held, in the aggregate, by the Founder and such Majority of the Series A Shareholders immediately before the Transfer. If the Majority of the Series A Shareholders exercise their Co-Sale Right in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Clause (B), the Founder may Transfer its Shares only if the proposed transferee completes the purchase of the shares which such Majority of the Series A Shareholders seek to sell pursuant to the exercise of the Co-Sale Right.

(c) If the Lead Series B Shareholder elects to exercise the Co-Sale Right, the holders of the Series B Shares may Transfer in the aggregate up to the number of shares of Founder Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate number of the Founder Shares proposed to be Transferred as set out in the Transfer Notice by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the number of Shares held in the aggregate by such Lead Series B Shareholder immediately before the Transfer and (y) the denominator of which is the total number of the Shares held, in the aggregate, by the Founder and such Lead Series B Shareholder immediately before the Transfer. If the Lead Series B Shareholder exercises its Co-Sale Right in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Clause (B), the Founder may Transfer its Shares only if the proposed transferee completes the purchase of the shares which such Lead Series B Shareholder seeks to sell pursuant to the exercise of the Co-Sale Right.

(iii) Delivery of Certificates.

(a) The Majority of the Series A Shareholders shall effect their participation in the Transfer under this Clause (B) by, promptly or no later than fifteen (15) days after the exercise of such Majority of the Series A Shareholders of the Co-Sale Right, delivering to the Founder for Transfer to the prospective purchaser one or more certificates, properly endorsed for Transfer, which represent the type and number

54

of the Series A Shares which such Majority of the Series A Shareholders elect to Transfer; provided, however, that if the prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of the Series A Shares in lieu of Ordinary Shares, such Majority of the Series A Shareholders shall first convert the Series A Shares into Ordinary Shares and deliver Ordinary Shares as provided in this Clause (B). The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with and contingent upon the actual Transfer of such shares to the prospective purchaser.

(b) The Lead Series B Shareholder shall effect its participation in the Transfer under this Clause (B) by, promptly or no later than fifteen (15) days after the exercise of the Lead Series B Shareholder of the Co-Sale Right, delivering to the Founder for Transfer to the prospective purchaser one or more certificates, properly endorsed for Transfer, which represent the type and number of the Series B Shares which such Lead Series B Shareholder elects to Transfer; provided, however, that if the prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of the Series B Shares in lieu of Ordinary Shares, such Lead Series B Shareholder shall first convert the Series B Shares into Ordinary Shares and deliver Ordinary Shares as provided in this Clause (B). The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with and contingent upon the actual Transfer of such shares to the prospective purchaser.

(iv) Sales Proceeds.

(a) The stock certificate or certificates that the Majority of the Series A Shareholders deliver to the Founder pursuant Clause (B)(iii)(a) shall be transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the sale of the Founder Shares pursuant to substantially the same terms and conditions as specified in the Transfer Notice, and the Founder shall upon receiving the same from the prospective purchaser concurrently remit to each holder constituting such Majority of the Series A Shareholders on a prorated basis the portion of the sale proceeds to which such Majority of the Series A Shareholders is entitled by reason of its participation in the Transfer. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibit assignment or otherwise refuse to purchase shares or other securities from such Majority of the Series A Shareholders, the Founder shall not Transfer to the prospective purchaser or purchasers any Series A Shares unless and until, simultaneously with the sale, the Founder purchases those shares or other securities from such Majority of the Series A Shareholders.

(b) The stock certificate or certificates that the Lead Series B Shareholder delivers to the Founder pursuant to Clause (B)(iii)(b) shall be transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the sale of the Founder Shares pursuant to substantially the same terms and conditions as specified in the Transfer Notice, and the Founder shall upon receiving the same from the prospective purchaser concurrently remit to the Lead Series B Shareholder on a prorated basis the portion of the sale proceeds to which the Lead Series B Shareholder is entitled by reason of its participation in the Transfer. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibit assignment or otherwise refuse to purchase shares or other securities from the Lead Series B Shareholder, the Founder shall

54

not Transfer to the prospective purchaser or purchasers any Series A Shares unless and until, simultaneously with the sale, the Founder purchases those shares or other securities from the Lead Series B Shareholder.

(v) Purchase and Sales Agreement. The terms and conditions of any sale pursuant to this Clause B shall be memorialized in, and governed by, a written purchase and sales agreement with customary terms and provisions for such a transaction; provided that the Majority of the Series A Shareholders or the Lead Series B Shareholder, as the case may be, shall not be required to give any representations or warranties other than those reasonably requested relating to its title in and ownership of the shares and information relating to such majority or in connection with complying with the relevant exemptions of the Securities Act.

(C) SALE BY THE FOUNDER. Subject to Clause (F), if and to the extent that either or both of the Majority of the Series A Shareholders or the Lead Series B Shareholder do not exercise its Right of First Refusal or Co-Sale Right with respect to the sale of the Founder Shares subject to the Transfer Notice within the relevant prescribed period, the Founder may, not later than ninety (90) days following delivery to such Majority of the Series A Shareholders and/or the Lead Series B Shareholder, as the case may be, of the Transfer Notice, conclude a bona fide Transfer of all of the Founder Shares covered by the Transfer Notice on terms and conditions not more favorable to the transferee or transferor than those described in the Transfer Notice. Any proposed Transfer on terms and conditions more favorable than those described in the Transfer Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer of any Founder Shares by the Founder, shall again be subject to the Right of First Refusal and the Co-Sale Right held by the Majority of the Series A Shareholders and/or the Lead Series B Shareholder, as the case may be, and shall require compliance by the Founder with the procedures described in this Schedule III.

(D) NO ADVERSE EFFECT. The exercise or non-exercise by either or both of the Majority of the Series A Shareholders or the Lead Series B Shareholder of the Right of First Refusal or the Co-Sale Right shall not adversely affect its rights to participate in subsequent transfers of Founder Shares by the Founder subject to the provisions of this Schedule III.

(E) EXEMPT TRANSFERS.

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Right of Refusal and the Co-Sale Right shall not apply to any transfer or transfers of Founder Shares by the Founder to its Affiliates or the Company's employees, provided that such employee transferee shall agree to the same transfer restrictions set out in this Schedule III.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Right of First Refusal or the Co-Sale Right shall not apply to the sale of any Founder Shares to the public pursuant to a Registration Statement filed with, and declared effective by, the Commission under the Securities Act (or with respect to a Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States, with or by an equivalent agency under applicable law in such jurisdiction).

(F) PROHIBITED TRANSFER. No sale of the Shares to a transferee under Clause (E)
shall be effective if a purpose or effect of such transfer shall have been to circumvent the provisions in Clauses (A) and (B) hereof. Each Shareholder shall remain responsible for the performance of this Article by

55

each transferee of such Shareholder to whom the Shares are transferred. If any Affiliate of any Shareholder to whom the Shares are transferred pursuant to Clause (E) ceases to be an Affiliate of such Shareholder from whom it acquired such Shares pursuant to such provision, such Person shall re-convey such Shares to such transferring Shareholder as soon as reasonably practicable after such Person knows of its upcoming change of status immediately prior thereto. If such change of status is not known until after its occurrence, the former Affiliate shall make such transfer to such transferring Shareholder as soon as practicable after the former Affiliate receives notice thereof.

(G) RESTRICTIONS ON THE TRANSFER BY THE PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS. Any Preferred Shares, or any classes of shares of the Company, held by the Preferred Shareholders are freely transferable, subject to restrictions under applicable laws, provided, however, that (i) the holders of the Preferred Shares shall give advance written notice to the Company with respect to a proposed transfer of such shares, and (ii) such holders shall not transfer such shares to any Person whose principal business is, in the good faith determination of two-thirds of the members of the Board (not counting the Series A Nominees in the event that the Series A Shares are being proposed to be transferred and not counting the Series B Nominees in the event that the Series B Shares are proposed to be transferred), in direct competition with the principal business of the Company at the time of such transfer. In addition to the foregoing, for a period of one year (1) following the date of the Series A Shareholders Agreement, the Series A Shareholder (or its Affiliates) shall not transfer shares of the Company representing, on an aggregated basis, more than 50% of the Series A Shares (as determined on a fully-diluted, as-converted basis) to a Person other than Affiliates of the Series A Shareholder without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(b) consolidate and divide all or any of its capital into shares of larger amount than its existing shares;

(c) without prejudice to the powers of the Board under Article 12, divide its shares into several classes and without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of existing shares attach thereto respectively any preferential, deferred, qualified or special rights, privileges, conditions or such restrictions which in the absence of any such determination by the Company in general meeting, as the Directors may determine provided always that, for the avoidance of doubt, where a class of shares has been authorized by the Company no resolution of the Company in general meeting is required for the issuance of shares of that class and the Directors may issue shares of that class and determine such rights, privileges, conditions or restrictions attaching thereto as aforesaid, and further provided that where the Company issues shares which do not carry voting rights, the words "non-voting" shall appear in the designation of such shares and where the equity capital includes shares with different voting rights, the designation of each class of shares, other than those with the most favourable voting rights, must include the words "restricted voting" or "limited voting";

(d) sub-divide its shares, or any of them, into shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the Memorandum of Association (subject, nevertheless, to the Law), and may by such resolution determine that, as between the holders of the shares resulting from such sub-division, one or more of the shares may have any such preferred, deferred or other rights or be subject to any such restrictions as compared with the other or others as the Company has power to attach to unissued or new shares;

(e) cancel any shares which, at the date of the passing of the resolution, have not been taken, or agreed to be taken, by any person, and diminish the amount of its capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled or, in the case of shares, without par value, diminish the number of shares into which its capital is divided.

5. The Board may settle as it considers expedient any difficulty which arises in relation to any consolidation and division under the last preceding Article and in particular but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing may issue certificates in respect of fractions of shares or arrange for the sale of the shares representing fractions and the distribution of the net proceeds of sale (after deduction of the expenses of such sale) in due proportion amongst the Members who would have been entitled to the fractions, and for this purpose the Board may


- 6 -

authorise some person to transfer the shares representing fractions to their purchaser or resolve that such net proceeds be paid to the Company for the Company's benefit. Such purchaser will not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money nor will his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings relating to the sale.

6. The Company may from time to time by special resolution, subject to any confirmation or consent required by the Law, reduce its share capital or any capital redemption reserve or other undistributable reserve in any manner permitted by law.

7. Except so far as otherwise provided by the conditions of issue, or by these Articles, any capital raised by the creation of new shares shall be treated as if it formed part of the original capital of the Company, and such shares shall be subject to the provisions contained in these Articles with reference to the payment of calls and instalments, transfer and transmission, forfeiture, lien, cancellation, surrender, voting and otherwise.

SHARE RIGHTS

8. Subject to the provisions of the Law, the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange and the Memorandum and Articles of Association and to any special rights conferred on the holders of any shares or class of shares, and without prejudice to Article 12 hereof, any share in the Company (whether forming part of the present capital or not) may be issued with or have attached thereto such rights or restrictions whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise as the Board may determine, including without limitation on terms that they may be, or at the option of the Company or the holder are, liable to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner, including out of capital, as the Board may deem fit.

9. Subject to the Law, any preferred shares may be issued or converted into shares that, at a determinable date or at the option of the Company or the holder if so authorised by its Memorandum of Association, are liable to be redeemed on such terms and in such manner as the Company before the issue or conversion may by ordinary resolution of the Members determine. Where the Company purchases for redemption a redeemable share, purchases not made through the market or by tender shall be limited to a maximum price as may from time to time be determined by the Board, either generally or with regard to specific purchases. If purchases are by tender, tenders shall comply with applicable laws.

VARIATION OF RIGHTS

10. Subject to the Law and without prejudice to Article 8, all or any of the special rights for the time being attached to the shares or any class of shares may, unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, from time to time (whether or not the Company is being wound up) be varied, modified or abrogated with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. To every such separate general meeting all the provisions of these Articles relating to general meetings of the Company shall, mutatis mutandis, apply, but so that:

(a) the necessary quorum (whether at a separate general meeting or at its adjourned meeting) shall be a person or persons (or in the case of a Member being a corporation, its duly authorized representative) together holding or representing


- 7 -

by proxy not less than one-third in nominal value of the issued shares of that class;

(b) every holder of shares of the class shall be entitled on a poll to one vote for every such share held by him; and

(c) any holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy or authorised representative may demand a poll.

11. The special rights conferred upon the holders of any shares or class of shares shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided in the rights attaching to or the terms of issue of such shares, be deemed to be varied, modified or abrogated by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith.

SHARES

12. (1) Subject to the Law, these Articles and, where applicable, the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange and without prejudice to any special rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any shares or any class of shares, the unissued shares of the Company (whether forming part of the original or any increased capital) shall be at the disposal of the Board, which may offer, allot, grant options over or otherwise dispose of them to such persons, at such times and for such consideration and upon such terms and conditions as the Board may in its absolute discretion determine but so that no shares shall be issued at a discount. In particular and without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Board is hereby empowered to authorize by resolution or resolutions from time to time the issuance of one or more classes or series of preferred shares and to fix the designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, if any, including, without limitation, the number of shares constituting each such class or series, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges, voting powers, full or limited or no voting powers, and liquidation preferences, and to increase or decrease the size of any such class or series (but not below the number of shares of any class or series of preferred shares then outstanding) to the extent permitted by Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the resolution or resolutions providing for the establishment of any class or series of preferred shares may, to the extent permitted by law, provide that such class or series shall be superior to, rank equally with or be junior to the preferred shares of any other class or series.

(2) Neither the Company nor the Board shall be obliged, when making or granting any allotment of, offer of, option over or disposal of shares, to make, or make available, any such allotment, offer, option or shares to Members or others with registered addresses in any particular territory or territories being a territory or territories where, in the absence of a registration statement or other special formalities, this would or might, in the opinion of the Board, be unlawful or impracticable. Members affected as a result of the foregoing sentence shall not be, or be deemed to be, a separate class of members for any purpose whatsoever. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the resolution or resolutions providing for the establishment of any class or series of preferred shares, no vote of the holders of preferred shares of or ordinary shares shall be a prerequisite to the issuance of any shares of any class or series of the preferred shares authorized by and complying with the conditions of the Memorandum and Articles of Association.


- 8 -

(3) The Board may issue options, warrants or convertible securities or securities of similar nature conferring the right upon the holders thereof to subscribe for, purchase or receive any class of shares or securities in the capital of the Company on such terms as it may from time to time determine.

13. The Company may in connection with the issue of any shares exercise all powers of paying commission and brokerage conferred or permitted by the Law. Subject to the Law, the commission may be satisfied by the payment of cash or by the allotment of fully or partly paid shares or partly in one and partly in the other.

14. Except as required by law, no person shall be recognised by the Company as holding any share upon any trust and the Company shall not be bound by or required in any way to recognise (even when having notice thereof) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any share or any fractional part of a share or (except only as otherwise provided by these Articles or by law) any other rights in respect of any share except an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the registered holder.

15. Subject to the Law and these Articles, the Board may at any time after the allotment of shares but before any person has been entered in the Register as the holder, recognise a renunciation thereof by the allottee in favour of some other person and may accord to any allottee of a share a right to effect such renunciation upon and subject to such terms and conditions as the Board considers fit to impose.

SHARE CERTIFICATES

16. Every share certificate shall be issued under the Seal or a facsimile thereof and shall specify the number and class and distinguishing numbers (if any) of the shares to which it relates, and the amount paid up thereon and may otherwise be in such form as the Directors may from time to time determine. No certificate shall be issued representing shares of more than one class. The Board may by resolution determine, either generally or in any particular case or cases, that any signatures on any such certificates (or certificates in respect of other securities) need not be autographic but may be affixed to such certificates by some mechanical means or may be printed thereon.

17. (1) In the case of a share held jointly by several persons, the Company shall not be bound to issue more than one certificate therefor and delivery of a certificate to one of several joint holders shall be sufficient delivery to all such holders.

(2) Where a share stands in the names of two or more persons, the person first named in the Register shall as regards service of notices and, subject to the provisions of these Articles, all or any other matters connected with the Company, except the transfer of the shares, be deemed the sole holder thereof.

18. Every person whose name is entered, upon an allotment of shares, as a Member in the Register shall be entitled, without payment, to receive one certificate for all such shares of any one class or several certificates each for one or more of such shares of such class upon payment for every certificate after the first of such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as the Board from time to time determines.


- 9 -

19. Share certificates shall be issued within the relevant time limit as prescribed by the Law or as the Designated Stock Exchange may from time to time determine, whichever is the shorter, after allotment or, except in the case of a transfer which the Company is for the time being entitled to refuse to register and does not register, after lodgment of a transfer with the Company.

20. (1) Upon every transfer of shares the certificate held by the transferor shall be given up to be cancelled, and shall forthwith be cancelled accordingly, and a new certificate shall be issued to the transferee in respect of the shares transferred to him at such fee as is provided in paragraph (2) of this Article. If any of the shares included in the certificate so given up shall be retained by the transferor a new certificate for the balance shall be issued to him at the aforesaid fee payable by the transferor to the Company in respect thereof.

(2) The fee referred to in paragraph (1) above shall be an amount not exceeding the relevant maximum amount as the Designated Stock Exchange may from time to time determine provided that the Board may at any time determine a lower amount for such fee.

21. If a share certificate shall be damaged or defaced or alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed a new certificate representing the same shares may be issued to the relevant Member upon request and on payment of such fee as the Company may determine and, subject to compliance with such terms (if any) as to evidence and indemnity and to payment of the costs and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Company in investigating such evidence and preparing such indemnity as the Board may think fit and, in case of damage or defacement, on delivery of the old certificate to the Company provided always that where share warrants have been issued, no new share warrant shall be issued to replace one that has been lost unless the Board has determined that the original has been destroyed.

LIEN

22. The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on every share (not being a fully paid share) for all moneys (whether presently payable or not) called or payable at a fixed time in respect of that share. The Company shall also have a first and paramount lien on every share (not being a fully paid share) registered in the name of a Member (whether or not jointly with other Members) for all amounts of money presently payable by such Member or his estate to the Company whether the same shall have been incurred before or after notice to the Company of any equitable or other interest of any person other than such member, and whether the period for the payment or discharge of the same shall have actually arrived or not, and notwithstanding that the same are joint debts or liabilities of such Member or his estate and any other person, whether a Member of the Company or not. The Company's lien on a share shall extend to all dividends or other moneys payable thereon or in respect thereof. The Board may at any time, generally or in any particular case, waive any lien that has arisen or declare any share exempt in whole or in part, from the provisions of this Article.

23. Subject to these Articles, the Company may sell in such manner as the Board determines any share on which the Company has a lien, but no sale shall be made unless some sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable, or the liability or engagement in respect of which such lien exists is liable to be presently fulfilled or discharged nor until the expiration of fourteen (14) clear days after a notice in writing, stating and demanding payment


- 10 -

of the sum presently payable, or specifying the liability or engagement and demanding fulfilment or discharge thereof and giving notice of the intention to sell in default, has been served on the registered holder for the time being of the share or the person entitled thereto by reason of his death or bankruptcy.

24. The net proceeds of the sale shall be received by the Company and applied in or towards payment or discharge of the debt or liability in respect of which the lien exists, so far as the same is presently payable, and any residue shall (subject to a like lien for debts or liabilities not presently payable as existed upon the share prior to the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the share at the time of the sale. To give effect to any such sale the Board may authorise some person to transfer the shares sold to the purchaser thereof. The purchaser shall be registered as the holder of the shares so transferred and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings relating to the sale.

CALLS ON SHARES

25. Subject to these Articles and to the terms of allotment, the Board may from time to time make calls upon the Members in respect of any moneys unpaid on their shares (whether on account of the nominal value of the shares or by way of premium), and each Member shall (subject to being given at least fourteen (14) clear days' Notice specifying the time and place of payment) pay to the Company as required by such notice the amount called on his shares. A call may be extended, postponed or revoked in whole or in part as the Board determines but no member shall be entitled to any such extension, postponement or revocation except as a matter of grace and favour.

26. A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Board authorising the call was passed and may be made payable either in one lump sum or by instalments.

27. A person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable for calls made upon him notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the shares in respect of which the call was made. The joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls and instalments due in respect thereof or other moneys due in respect thereof.

28. If a sum called in respect of a share is not paid before or on the day appointed for payment thereof, the person from whom the sum is due shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day appointed for payment thereof to the time of actual payment at such rate (not exceeding twenty per cent. (20%) per annum) as the Board may determine, but the Board may in its absolute discretion waive payment of such interest wholly or in part.

29. No Member shall be entitled to receive any dividend or bonus or to be present and vote (save as proxy for another Member) at any general meeting either personally or by proxy, or be reckoned in a quorum, or exercise any other privilege as a Member until all calls or instalments due by him to the Company, whether alone or jointly with any other person, together with interest and expenses (if any) shall have been paid.

30. On the trial or hearing of any action or other proceedings for the recovery of any money due for any call, it shall be sufficient to prove that the name of the Member sued is


- 11 -

entered in the Register as the holder, or one of the holders, of the shares in respect of which such debt accrued, that the resolution making the call is duly recorded in the minute book, and that notice of such call was duly given to the Member sued, in pursuance of these Articles; and it shall not be necessary to prove the appointment of the Directors who made such call, nor any other matters whatsoever, but the proof of the matters aforesaid shall be conclusive evidence of the debt.

31. Any amount payable in respect of a share upon allotment or at any fixed date, whether in respect of nominal value or premium or as an instalment of a call, shall be deemed to be a call duly made and payable on the date fixed for payment and if it is not paid the provisions of these Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

32. On the issue of shares the Board may differentiate between the allottees or holders as to the amount of calls to be paid and the times of payment.

33. The Board may, if it thinks fit, receive from any Member willing to advance the same, and either in money or money's worth, all or any part of the moneys uncalled and unpaid or instalments payable upon any shares held by him and upon all or any of the moneys so advanced (until the same would, but for such advance, become presently payable) pay interest at such rate (if any) as the Board may decide. The Board may at any time repay the amount so advanced upon giving to such Member not less than one month's Notice of its intention in that behalf, unless before the expiration of such notice the amount so advanced shall have been called up on the shares in respect of which it was advanced. Such payment in advance shall not entitle the holder of such share or shares to participate in respect thereof in a dividend subsequently declared.

FORFEITURE OF SHARES

34. (1) If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the Board may give to the person from whom it is due not less than fourteen (14) clear days' Notice:

(a) requiring payment of the amount unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued and which may still accrue up to the date of actual payment; and

(b) stating that if the Notice is not complied with the shares on which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

(2) If the requirements of any such Notice are not complied with, any share in respect of which such Notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before payment of all calls and interest due in respect thereof has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Board to that effect, and such forfeiture shall include all dividends and bonuses declared in respect of the forfeited share but not actually paid before the forfeiture.

35. When any share has been forfeited, notice of the forfeiture shall be served upon the person who was before forfeiture the holder of the share. No forfeiture shall be invalidated by any omission or neglect to give such Notice.


- 12 -

36. The Board may accept the surrender of any share liable to be forfeited hereunder and, in such case, references in these Articles to forfeiture will include surrender.

37. Any share so forfeited shall be deemed the property of the Company and may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of to such person, upon such terms and in such manner as the Board determines, and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the forfeiture may be annulled by the Board on such terms as the Board determines.

38. A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of the forfeited shares but nevertheless shall remain liable to pay the Company all moneys which at the date of forfeiture were presently payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares, with (if the Directors shall in their discretion so require) interest thereon from the date of forfeiture until payment at such rate (not exceeding twenty per cent. (20%) per annum) as the Board determines. The Board may enforce payment thereof if it thinks fit, and without any deduction or allowance for the value of the forfeited shares, at the date of forfeiture, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all such moneys in respect of the shares. For the purposes of this Article any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, is payable thereon at a fixed time which is subsequent to the date of forfeiture, whether on account of the nominal value of the share or by way of premium, shall notwithstanding that time has not yet arrived be deemed to be payable at the date of forfeiture, and the same shall become due and payable immediately upon the forfeiture, but interest thereon shall only be payable in respect of any period between the said fixed time and the date of actual payment.

39. A declaration by a Director or the Secretary that a share has been forfeited on a specified date shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the share, and such declaration shall (subject to the execution of an instrument of transfer by the Company if necessary) constitute a good title to the share, and the person to whom the share is disposed of shall be registered as the holder of the share and shall not be bound to see to the application of the consideration (if any), nor shall his title to the share be affected by any irregularity in or invalidity of the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the share. When any share shall have been forfeited, notice of the declaration shall be given to the Member in whose name it stood immediately prior to the forfeiture, and an entry of the forfeiture, with the date thereof, shall forthwith be made in the register, but no forfeiture shall be in any manner invalidated by any omission or neglect to give such notice or make any such entry.

40. Notwithstanding any such forfeiture as aforesaid the Board may at any time, before any shares so forfeited shall have been sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of, permit the shares forfeited to be bought back upon the terms of payment of all calls and interest due upon and expenses incurred in respect of the share, and upon such further terms (if any) as it thinks fit.

41. The forfeiture of a share shall not prejudice the right of the Company to any call already made or instalment payable thereon.

42. The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the nominal value of the share or by way of premium, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.


- 13 -

REGISTER OF MEMBERS

43. (1) The Company shall keep in one or more books a Register of its Members and shall enter therein the following particulars, that is to say:

(a) the name and address of each Member, the number and class of shares held by him and the amount paid or agreed to be considered as paid on such shares;

(b) the date on which each person was entered in the Register; and

(c) the date on which any person ceased to be a Member.

(2) The Company may keep an overseas or local or other branch register of Members resident in any place, and the Board may make and vary such regulations as it determines in respect of the keeping of any such register and maintaining a Registration Office in connection therewith.

44. The Register and branch register of Members, as the case may be, shall be open to inspection for such times and on such days as the Board shall determine by Members without charge or by any other person, upon a maximum payment of $2.50 or such other sum specified by the Board, at the Office or such other place at which the Register is kept in accordance with the Law or, if appropriate, upon a maximum payment of $1.00 or such other sum specified by the Board at the Registration Office. The Register including any overseas or local or other branch register of Members may, after notice has been given by advertisement in an appointed newspaper or any other newspapers in accordance with the requirements of the Designated Stock Exchange or by any electronic means in such manner as may be accepted by the Designated Stock Exchange to that effect, be closed at such times or for such periods not exceeding in the whole thirty (30) days in each year as the Board may determine and either generally or in respect of any class of shares.

RECORD DATES

45. For the purpose of determining the Members entitled to notice of or to vote at any general meeting, or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of shares or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix, in advance, a date as the record date for any such determination of Members, which date shall not be more than sixty (60) days nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to any other such action.

If the Board does not fix a record date for any general meeting, the record date for determining the Members entitled to a notice of or to vote at such meeting shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if in accordance with these Articles notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. If corporate action without a general meeting is to be taken, the record date for determining the Members entitled to express consent to such


- 14 -

corporate action in writing, when no prior action by the Board is necessary, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Company by delivery to its head office. The record date for determining the Members for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

A determination of the Members of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the Members shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

TRANSFER OF SHARES

46. Subject to these Articles, any Member may transfer all or any of his shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or in a form prescribed by the Designated Stock Exchange or in any other form approved by the Board and may be under hand or, if the transferor or transferee is a clearing house or its nominee(s), by hand or by machine imprinted signature or by such other manner of execution as the Board may approve from time to time.

47. The instrument of transfer shall be executed by or on behalf of the transferor and the transferee provided that the Board may dispense with the execution of the instrument of transfer by the transferee in any case which it thinks fit in its discretion to do so. Without prejudice to the last preceding Article, the Board may also resolve, either generally or in any particular case, upon request by either the transferor or transferee, to accept mechanically executed transfers. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of the share until the name of the transferee is entered in the Register in respect thereof. Nothing in these Articles shall preclude the Board from recognising a renunciation of the allotment or provisional allotment of any share by the allottee in favour of some other person.

48. (1) The Board may, in its absolute discretion, and without giving any reason therefor, refuse to register a transfer of any share (not being a fully paid up share) to a person of whom it does not approve, or any share issued under any share incentive scheme for employees upon which a restriction on transfer imposed thereby still subsists, and it may also, without prejudice to the foregoing generality, refuse to register a transfer of any share to more than four joint holders or a transfer of any share (not being a fully paid up share) on which the Company has a lien.

(2) The Board in so far as permitted by any applicable law may, in its absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time transfer any share upon the Register to any branch register or any share on any branch register to the Register or any other branch register. In the event of any such transfer, the shareholder requesting such transfer shall bear the cost of effecting the transfer unless the Board otherwise determines.

(3) Unless the Board otherwise agrees (which agreement may be on such terms and subject to such conditions as the Board in its absolute discretion may from time to time determine, and which agreement the Board shall, without giving any reason therefor, be entitled in its absolute discretion to give or withhold), no shares upon the Register shall be transferred to any branch register nor shall shares on any branch register be transferred to the Register or any other branch register and all transfers and other documents of title shall be lodged for registration, and registered, in the case of any shares on a branch register, at the


- 15 -

relevant Registration Office, and, in the case of any shares on the Register, at the Office or such other place at which the Register is kept in accordance with the Law.

49. Without limiting the generality of the last preceding Article, the Board may decline to recognise any instrument of transfer unless:-

(a) a fee of such maximum sum as the Designated Stock Exchange may determine to be payable or such lesser sum as the Board may from time to time require is paid to the Company in respect thereof;

(b) the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of share;

(c) the instrument of transfer is lodged at the Office or such other place at which the Register is kept in accordance with the Law or the Registration Office (as the case may be) accompanied by the relevant share certificate(s) and such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer (and, if the instrument of transfer is executed by some other person on his behalf, the authority of that person so to do); and

(d) if applicable, the instrument of transfer is duly and properly stamped.

50. If the Board refuses to register a transfer of any share, it shall, within two months after the date on which the transfer was lodged with the Company, send to each of the transferor and transferee notice of the refusal.

51. The registration of transfers of shares or of any class of shares may, after notice has been given by advertisement in an appointed newspaper or any other newspapers or by any other means in accordance with the requirements of the Designated Stock Exchange to that effect be suspended at such times and for such periods (not exceeding in the whole thirty (30) days in any year) as the Board may determine.

TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

52. If a Member dies, the survivor or survivors where the deceased was a joint holder, and his legal personal representatives where he was a sole or only surviving holder, will be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to his interest in the shares; but nothing in this Article will release the estate of a deceased Member (whether sole or joint) from any liability in respect of any share which had been solely or jointly held by him.

53. Any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or winding-up of a Member may, upon such evidence as to his title being produced as may be required by the Board, elect either to become the holder of the share or to have some person nominated by him registered as the transferee thereof. If he elects to become the holder he shall notify the Company in writing either at the Registration Office or Office, as the case may be, to that effect. If he elects to have another person registered he shall execute a transfer of the share in favour of that person. The provisions of these Articles relating to the transfer and registration of transfers of shares shall apply to such notice or transfer as aforesaid as if the death or bankruptcy of the Member had not occurred and the notice or transfer were a transfer signed by such Member.


- 16 -

54. A person becoming entitled to a share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or winding-up of a Member shall be entitled to the same dividends and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the registered holder of the share. However, the Board may, if it thinks fit, withhold the payment of any dividend payable or other advantages in respect of such share until such person shall become the registered holder of the share or shall have effectually transferred such share, but, subject to the requirements of Article 75(2) being met, such a person may vote at meetings.

UNTRACEABLE MEMBERS

55. (1) Without prejudice to the rights of the Company under paragraph (2) of this Article, the Company may cease sending cheques for dividend entitlements or dividend warrants by post if such cheques or warrants have been left uncashed on two consecutive occasions. However, the Company may exercise the power to cease sending cheques for dividend entitlements or dividend warrants after the first occasion on which such a cheque or warrant is returned undelivered.

(2) The Company shall have the power to sell, in such manner as the Board thinks fit, any shares of a Member who is untraceable, but no such sale shall be made unless:

(a) all cheques or warrants in respect of dividends of the shares in question, being not less than three in total number, for any sum payable in cash to the holder of such shares in respect of them sent during the relevant period in the manner authorised by the Articles of the Company have remained uncashed;

(b) so far as it is aware at the end of the relevant period, the Company has not at any time during the relevant period received any indication of the existence of the Member who is the holder of such shares or of a person entitled to such shares by death, bankruptcy or operation of law; and

(c) the Company, if so required by the rules governing the listing of shares on the Designated Stock Exchange, has given notice to, and caused advertisement in newspapers to be made in accordance with the requirements of, the Designated Stock Exchange of its intention to sell such shares in the manner required by the Designated Stock Exchange, and a period of three months or such shorter period as may be allowed by the Designated Stock Exchange has elapsed since the date of such advertisement.

For the purpose of the foregoing, the "relevant period" means the period commencing twelve (12) years before the date of publication of the advertisement referred to in paragraph (c) of this Article and ending at the expiry of the period referred to in that paragraph.

(3) To give effect to any such sale the Board may authorise some person to transfer the said shares and an instrument of transfer signed or otherwise executed by or on behalf of such person shall be as effective as if it had been executed by the registered holder or the person entitled by transmission to such shares, and the purchaser shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings relating to the sale. The net proceeds of the sale will belong to


- 17 -

the Company and upon receipt by the Company of such net proceeds it shall become indebted to the former Member for an amount equal to such net proceeds. No trust shall be created in respect of such debt and no interest shall be payable in respect of it and the Company shall not be required to account for any money earned from the net proceeds which may be employed in the business of the Company or as it thinks fit. Any sale under this Article shall be valid and effective notwithstanding that the Member holding the shares sold is dead, bankrupt or otherwise under any legal disability or incapacity.

GENERAL MEETINGS

56. An annual general meeting of the Company shall be held in each year other than the year of the Company's incorporation at such time and place as may be determined by the Board.

57. Each general meeting, other than an annual general meeting, shall be called an extraordinary general meeting. General meetings may be held at such times and in any location in the world as may be determined by the Board.

58. Only a majority of the Board or the Chairman of the Board may call extraordinary general meetings, which extraordinary general meetings shall be held at such times and locations (as permitted hereby) as such person or persons shall determine. In addition, any one or more Members holding at the date of deposit of the requisition not less than 50% of the voting power represented by the issued shares of the Company shall at all times have the right, by written requisition to the Board or the Secretary of the Company, to require an extraordinary general meeting to be called by the Board for the transaction of any business specified in such requisition; and such meeting shall be held within two (2) months after the deposit of such requisition. If within twenty-one (21) days of such deposit the Board fails to proceed to convene such meeting the requisitionist(s) himself (themselves) may do so in the same manner, and all reasonable expenses incurred by the requisitionist(s) as a result of the failure of the Board shall be reimbursed to the requisitionist(s) by the Company.

NOTICE OF GENERAL MEETINGS

59. (1) An annual general meeting and any extraordinary general meeting may be called by not less than ten (10) clear days' Notice but a general meeting may be called by shorter notice, subject to the Law, if it is so agreed:

(a) in the case of a meeting called as an annual general meeting, by all the Members entitled to attend and vote thereat; and

(b) in the case of any other meeting, by a majority in number of the Members having the right to attend and vote at the meeting, being a majority together holding not less than ninety-five per cent. (95%) in nominal value of the issued shares giving that right.

(2) The notice shall specify the time and place of the meeting and, in case of special business, the general nature of the business. The notice convening an annual general meeting shall specify the meeting as such. Notice of every general meeting shall be given to all


- 18 -

Members other than to such Members as, under the provisions of these Articles or the terms of issue of the shares they hold, are not entitled to receive such notices from the Company, to all persons entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or winding-up of a Member and to each of the Directors and the Auditors.

60. The accidental omission to give Notice of a meeting or (in cases where instruments of proxy are sent out with the Notice) to send such instrument of proxy to, or the non-receipt of such Notice or such instrument of proxy by, any person entitled to receive such Notice shall not invalidate any resolution passed or the proceedings at that meeting.

PROCEEDINGS AT GENERAL MEETINGS

61. (1) All business shall be deemed special that is transacted at an extraordinary general meeting, and also all business that is transacted at an annual general meeting, with the exception of:

(a) the declaration and sanctioning of dividends;

(b) consideration and adoption of the accounts and balance sheet and the reports of the Directors and Auditors and other documents required to be annexed to the balance sheet;

(c) the election of Directors;

(d) appointment of Auditors (where special notice of the intention for such appointment is not required by the Law) and other officers;

(e) the fixing of the remuneration of the Auditors, and the voting of remuneration or extra remuneration to the Directors;

(f) the granting of any mandate or authority to the Directors to offer, allot, grant options over or otherwise dispose of the unissued shares in the capital of the Company representing not more than 20 per cent. (20%) in nominal value of its existing issued share capital; and

(g) the granting of any mandate or authority to the Directors to repurchase securities of the Company.

(2) No business other than the appointment of a chairman of a meeting shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present at the commencement of the business. At any general meeting of the Company, two (2) Members entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy or (in the case of a Member being a corporation) by its duly authorised representative representing not less than one-third in nominal value of the total issued voting shares in the Company throughout the meeting shall form a quorum for all purposes.

62. If within thirty (30) minutes (or such longer time not exceeding one hour as the chairman of the meeting may determine to wait) after the time appointed for the meeting a quorum is not present, the meeting shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the


- 19 -

same time and place or to such time and place as the Board may determine. If at such adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for holding the meeting, the meeting shall be dissolved.

63. The chairman of the Company shall preside as chairman at every general meeting. If at any meeting the chairman is not present within fifteen (15) minutes after the time appointed for holding the meeting, or is not willing to act as chairman, the Directors present shall choose one of their number to act, or if one Director only is present he shall preside as chairman if willing to act. If no Director is present, or if each of the Directors present declines to take the chair, or if the chairman chosen shall retire from the chair, the Members present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote shall elect one of their number to be chairman.

64. The chairman may adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business which might lawfully have been transacted at the meeting had the adjournment not taken place. When a meeting is adjourned for fourteen (14) days or more, at least seven (7) clear days' notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given specifying the time and place of the adjourned meeting but it shall not be necessary to specify in such notice the nature of the business to be transacted at the adjourned meeting and the general nature of the business to be transacted. Save as aforesaid, it shall be unnecessary to give notice of an adjournment.

65. If an amendment is proposed to any resolution under consideration but is in good faith ruled out of order by the chairman of the meeting, the proceedings on the substantive resolution shall not be invalidated by any error in such ruling. In the case of a resolution duly proposed as a special resolution, no amendment thereto (other than a mere clerical amendment to correct a patent error) may in any event be considered or voted upon.

VOTING

66. Subject to any special rights or restrictions as to voting for the time being attached to any shares by or in accordance with these Articles, at any general meeting on a show of hands every Member present in person (or being a corporation, is present by a duly authorised representative), or by proxy shall have one vote and on a poll every Member present in person or by proxy or, in the case of a Member being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative shall have one vote for every fully paid share of which he is the holder but so that no amount paid up or credited as paid up on a share in advance of calls or instalments is treated for the foregoing purposes as paid up on the share. Notwithstanding anything contained in these Articles, where more than one proxy is appointed by a Member which is a clearing house (or its nominee(s)), each such proxy shall have one vote on a show of hands. A resolution put to the vote of a meeting shall be decided on a show of hands unless (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands or on the withdrawal of any other demand for a poll) a poll is demanded:

(a) by the chairman of such meeting; or

(b) by at least three Members present in person or in the case of a Member being a corporation by its duly authorised representative or by proxy for the time being entitled to vote at the meeting; or


- 20 -

(c) by a Member or Members present in person or in the case of a Member being a corporation by its duly authorised representative or by proxy and representing not less than one-tenth of the total voting rights of all Members having the right to vote at the meeting; or

(d) by a Member or Members present in person or in the case of a Member being a corporation by its duly authorised representative or by proxy and holding shares in the Company conferring a right to vote at the meeting being shares on which an aggregate sum has been paid up equal to not less than one-tenth of the total sum paid up on all shares conferring that right.

A demand by a person as proxy for a Member or in the case of a Member being a corporation by its duly authorised representative shall be deemed to be the same as a demand by a Member.

67. Unless a poll is duly demanded and the demand is not withdrawn, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has been carried, or carried unanimously, or by a particular majority, or not carried by a particular majority, or lost, and an entry to that effect made in the minute book of the Company, shall be conclusive evidence of the facts without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded for or against the resolution.

68. If a poll is duly demanded the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded. There shall be no requirement for the chairman to disclose the voting figures on a poll.

69. A poll demanded on the election of a chairman, or on a question of adjournment, shall be taken forthwith. A poll demanded on any other question shall be taken in such manner (including the use of ballot or voting papers or tickets) and either forthwith or at such time (being not later than thirty (30) days after the date of the demand) and place as the chairman directs. It shall not be necessary (unless the chairman otherwise directs) for notice to be given of a poll not taken immediately.

70. The demand for a poll shall not prevent the continuance of a meeting or the transaction of any business other than the question on which the poll has been demanded, and, with the consent of the chairman, it may be withdrawn at any time before the close of the meeting or the taking of the poll, whichever is the earlier.

71. On a poll votes may be given either personally or by proxy.

72. A person entitled to more than one vote on a poll need not use all his votes or cast all the votes he uses in the same way.

73. All questions submitted to a meeting shall be decided by a simple majority of votes except where a greater majority is required by these Articles or by the Law. In the case of an equality of votes, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, the chairman of such meeting shall be entitled to a second or casting vote in addition to any other vote he may have.

74. Where there are joint holders of any share any one of such joint holder may vote, either in person or by proxy, in respect of such share as if he were solely entitled thereto, but if more than one of such joint holders be present at any meeting the vote of the senior who


- 21 -

tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register in respect of the joint holding. Several executors or administrators of a deceased Member in whose name any share stands shall for the purposes of this Article be deemed joint holders thereof.

75. (1) A Member who is a patient for any purpose relating to mental health or in respect of whom an order has been made by any court having jurisdiction for the protection or management of the affairs of persons incapable of managing their own affairs may vote, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, by his receiver, committee, curator bonis or other person in the nature of a receiver, committee or curator bonis appointed by such court, and such receiver, committee, curator bonis or other person may vote on a poll by proxy, and may otherwise act and be treated as if he were the registered holder of such shares for the purposes of general meetings, provided that such evidence as the Board may require of the authority of the person claiming to vote shall have been deposited at the Office, head office or Registration Office, as appropriate, not less than forty-eight (48) hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting, or adjourned meeting or poll, as the case may be.

(2) Any person entitled under Article 53 to be registered as the holder of any shares may vote at any general meeting in respect thereof in the same manner as if he were the registered holder of such shares, provided that forty-eight
(48) hours at least before the time of the holding of the meeting or adjourned meeting, as the case may be, at which he proposes to vote, he shall satisfy the Board of his entitlement to such shares, or the Board shall have previously admitted his right to vote at such meeting in respect thereof.

76. No Member shall, unless the Board otherwise determines, be entitled to attend and vote and to be reckoned in a quorum at any general meeting unless he is duly registered and all calls or other sums presently payable by him in respect of shares in the Company have been paid.

77. If:

(a) any objection shall be raised to the qualification of any voter; or

(b) any votes have been counted which ought not to have been counted or which might have been rejected; or

(c) any votes are not counted which ought to have been counted;

the objection or error shall not vitiate the decision of the meeting or adjourned meeting on any resolution unless the same is raised or pointed out at the meeting or, as the case may be, the adjourned meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered or at which the error occurs. Any objection or error shall be referred to the chairman of the meeting and shall only vitiate the decision of the meeting on any resolution if the chairman decides that the same may have affected the decision of the meeting. The decision of the chairman on such matters shall be final and conclusive.

PROXIES


- 22 -

78. Any Member entitled to attend and vote at a meeting of the Company shall be entitled to appoint another person as his proxy to attend and vote instead of him. A Member who is the holder of two or more shares may appoint more than one proxy to represent him and vote on his behalf at a general meeting of the Company or at a class meeting. A proxy need not be a Member. In addition, a proxy or proxies representing either a Member who is an individual or a Member which is a corporation shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the Member which he or they represent as such Member could exercise.

79. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointor or of his attorney duly authorised in writing or, if the appointor is a corporation, either under its seal or under the hand of an officer, attorney or other person authorised to sign the same. In the case of an instrument of proxy purporting to be signed on behalf of a corporation by an officer thereof it shall be assumed, unless the contrary appears, that such officer was duly authorised to sign such instrument of proxy on behalf of the corporation without further evidence of the facts.

80. The instrument appointing a proxy and (if required by the Board) the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is signed, or a certified copy of such power or authority, shall be delivered to such place or one of such places (if any) as may be specified for that purpose in or by way of note to or in any document accompanying the notice convening the meeting (or, if no place is so specified at the Registration Office or the Office, as may be appropriate) not less than forty-eight (48) hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the person named in the instrument proposes to vote or, in the case of a poll taken subsequently to the date of a meeting or adjourned meeting, not less than twenty-four (24) hours before the time appointed for the taking of the poll and in default the instrument of proxy shall not be treated as valid. No instrument appointing a proxy shall be valid after the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date named in it as the date of its execution, except at an adjourned meeting or on a poll demanded at a meeting or an adjourned meeting in cases where the meeting was originally held within twelve (12) months from such date. Delivery of an instrument appointing a proxy shall not preclude a Member from attending and voting in person at the meeting convened and in such event, the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deemed to be revoked.

81. Instruments of proxy shall be in any common form or in such other form as the Board may approve (provided that this shall not preclude the use of the two-way form) and the Board may, if it thinks fit, send out with the notice of any meeting forms of instrument of proxy for use at the meeting. The instrument of proxy shall be deemed to confer authority to demand or join in demanding a poll and to vote on any amendment of a resolution put to the meeting for which it is given as the proxy thinks fit. The instrument of proxy shall, unless the contrary is stated therein, be valid as well for any adjournment of the meeting as for the meeting to which it relates.

82. A vote given in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the previous death or insanity of the principal, or revocation of the instrument of proxy or of the authority under which it was executed, provided that no intimation in writing of such death, insanity or revocation shall have been received by the Company at the Office or the Registration Office (or such other place as may be specified for the delivery of instruments of proxy in the notice convening the meeting or other document sent therewith) two hours at least before the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting, or the taking of the poll, at which the instrument of proxy is used.


- 23 -

83. Anything which under these Articles a Member may do by proxy he may likewise do by his duly appointed attorney and the provisions of these Articles relating to proxies and instruments appointing proxies shall apply mutatis mutandis in relation to any such attorney and the instrument under which such attorney is appointed.

CORPORATIONS ACTING BY REPRESENTATIVES

84. (1) Any corporation which is a Member may by resolution of its directors or other governing body authorise such person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or at any meeting of any class of Members. The person so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of such corporation as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual Member and such corporation shall for the purposes of these Articles be deemed to be present in person at any such meeting if a person so authorised is present thereat.

(2) If a clearing house (or its nominee(s)), being a corporation, is a Member, it may authorise such persons as it thinks fit to act as its representatives at any meeting of the Company or at any meeting of any class of Members provided that the authorisation shall specify the number and class of shares in respect of which each such representative is so authorised. Each person so authorised under the provisions of this Article shall be deemed to have been duly authorised without further evidence of the facts and be entitled to exercise the same rights and powers on behalf of the clearing house (or its nominee(s)) as if such person was the registered holder of the shares of the Company held by the clearing house (or its nominee(s)) including the right to vote individually on a show of hands.

(3) Any reference in these Articles to a duly authorised representative of a Member being a corporation shall mean a representative authorised under the provisions of this Article.

NO ACTION BY WRITTEN RESOLUTIONS OF MEMBERS

85. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or extraordinary general meetings of the Company may be taken only upon the vote of the Members at an annual or extraordinary general meeting duly noticed and convened in accordance with these Articles and the Law and may not be taken by written resolution of Members without a meeting.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

86. (1) Unless otherwise determined by the Company in general meeting, the number of Directors shall not be less than two (2). There shall be no maximum number of Directors unless otherwise determined from time to time by the Members in general meeting. The Directors shall be elected or appointed in the first place by the subscribers to the Memorandum of Association or by a majority of them and thereafter in accordance with Article 87 and shall hold office until their successors are elected or appointed.


- 24 -

(2) Subject to the Articles and the Law, the Company may by ordinary resolution elect any person to be a Director either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Board.

(3) The Directors shall have the power from time to time and at any time to appoint any person as a Director to fill a casual vacancy on the Board or as an addition to the existing Board. Any Director so appointed by the Board shall hold office only until the next following annual general meeting of the Company and shall then be eligible for re-election.

(4) No Director shall be required to hold any shares of the Company by way of qualification and a Director who is not a Member shall be entitled to receive notice of and to attend and speak at any general meeting of the Company and of all classes of shares of the Company.

(5) Subject to any provision to the contrary in these Articles, a Director may be removed by way of an ordinary resolution of the Members at any time before the expiration of his period of office notwithstanding anything in these Articles or in any agreement between the Company and such Director (but without prejudice to any claim for damages under any such agreement).

(6) A vacancy on the Board created by the removal of a Director under the provisions of subparagraph (5) above may be filled by the election or appointment by ordinary resolution of the Members at the meeting at which such Director is removed or by the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the remaining Directors present and voting at a Board meeting.

(7) The Company may from time to time in general meeting by ordinary resolution increase or reduce the number of Directors but so that the number of Directors shall never be less than two (2).

RETIREMENT OF DIRECTORS

87. (1) Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Articles, at each annual general meeting one-third of the Directors for the time being (or, if their number is not a multiple of three (3), the number nearest to but not greater than one-third) shall retire from office by rotation provided that notwithstanding anything herein, the chairman of the Board and/or the managing director of the Company shall not, whilst holding such office, be subject to retirement by rotation or be taken into account in determining the number of Directors to retire in each year.

(2) A retiring Director shall be eligible for re-election. The Directors to retire by rotation shall include (so far as necessary to ascertain the number of directors to retire by rotation) any Director who wishes to retire and not to offer himself for re-election. Any further Directors so to retire shall be those of the other Directors subject to retirement by rotation who have been longest in office since their last re-election or appointment and so that as between persons who became or were last re-elected Directors on the same day those to retire shall (unless they otherwise agree among themselves) be determined by lot. Any Director appointed pursuant to Article 86(2) or Article 86(3) shall not be taken into account in determining which particular Directors or the number of Directors who are to retire by rotation.


- 25 -

88. No person other than a Director retiring at the meeting shall, unless recommended by the Directors for election, be eligible for election as a Director at any general meeting unless a Notice signed by a Member (other than the person to be proposed) duly qualified to attend and vote at the meeting for which such notice is given of his intention to propose such person for election and also a Notice signed by the person to be proposed of his willingness to be elected shall have been lodged at the head office or at the Registration Office provided that the minimum length of the period, during which such Notice(s) are given, shall be at least seven (7) days and that the period for lodgment of such Notice(s) shall commence no earlier than the day after the dispatch of the notice of the general meeting appointed for such election and end no later than seven (7) days prior to the date of such general meeting.

(1) resigns his office by notice in writing delivered to the Company at the Office or tendered at a meeting of the Board;

(2) becomes of unsound mind or dies;

(3) without special leave of absence from the Board, is absent from meetings of the Board for six consecutive months and the Board resolves that his office be vacated; or

EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS

90. The Board may from time to time appoint any one or more of its body to be a managing director, joint managing director or deputy managing director or to hold any other employment or executive office with the Company for such period (subject to their continuance as Directors) and upon such terms as the Board may determine and the Board may revoke or terminate any of such appointments. Any such revocation or termination as aforesaid shall be without prejudice to any claim for damages that such Director may have against the Company or the Company may have against such Director. A Director appointed to an office under this Article shall be subject to the same provisions as to removal as the other Directors of the Company, and he shall (subject to the provisions of any contract between him and the Company) ipso facto and immediately cease to hold such office if he shall cease to hold the office of Director for any cause.

91. Notwithstanding Articles 96, 97, 98 and 99, an executive director appointed to an office under Article 90 hereof shall receive such remuneration (whether by way of salary,


- 26 -

commission, participation in profits or otherwise or by all or any of those modes) and such other benefits (including pension and/or gratuity and/or other benefits on retirement) and allowances as the Board may from time to time determine, and either in addition to or in lieu of his remuneration as a Director.

ALTERNATE DIRECTORS

92. Any Director may at any time by Notice delivered to the Office or head office or at a meeting of the Directors appoint any person (including another Director) to be his alternate Director. Any person so appointed shall have all the rights and powers of the Director or Directors for whom such person is appointed in the alternative provided that such person shall not be counted more than once in determining whether or not a quorum is present. An alternate Director may be removed at any time by the body which appointed him and, subject thereto, the office of alternate Director shall continue until the happening of any event which, if we were a Director, would cause him to vacate such office or if his appointer ceases for any reason to be a Director. Any appointment or removal of an alternate Director shall be effected by Notice signed by the appointor and delivered to the Office or head office or tendered at a meeting of the Board. An alternate Director may also be a Director in his own right and may act as alternate to more than one Director. An alternate Director shall, if his appointor so requests, be entitled to receive notices of meetings of the Board or of committees of the Board to the same extent as, but in lieu of, the Director appointing him and shall be entitled to such extent to attend and vote as a Director at any such meeting at which the Director appointing him is not personally present and generally at such meeting to exercise and discharge all the functions, powers and duties of his appointor as a Director and for the purposes of the proceedings at such meeting the provisions of these Articles shall apply as if he were a Director save that as an alternate for more than one Director his voting rights shall be cumulative.

93. An alternate Director shall only be a Director for the purposes of the Law and shall only be subject to the provisions of the Law insofar as they relate to the duties and obligations of a Director when performing the functions of the Director for whom he is appointed in the alternative and shall alone be responsible to the Company for his acts and defaults and shall not be deemed to be the agent of or for the Director appointing him. An alternate Director shall be entitled to contract and be interested in and benefit from contracts or arrangements or transactions and to be repaid expenses and to be indemnified by the Company to the same extent mutatis mutandis as if he were a Director but he shall not be entitled to receive from the Company any fee in his capacity as an alternate Director except only such part, if any, of the remuneration otherwise payable to his appointor as such appointor may by Notice to the Company from time to time direct.

94. Every person acting as an alternate Director shall have one vote for each Director for whom he acts as alternate (in addition to his own vote if he is also a Director). If his appointor is for the time being absent from the People's Republic of China or otherwise not available or unable to act, the signature of an alternate Director to any resolution in writing of the Board or a committee of the Board of which his appointor is a member shall, unless the notice of his appointment provides to the contrary, be as effective as the signature of his appointor.

95. An alternate Director shall ipso facto cease to be an alternate Director if his appointor ceases for any reason to be a Director, however, such alternate Director or any other


- 27 -

person may be re-appointed by the Directors to serve as an alternate Director PROVIDED always that, if at any meeting any Director retires but is re-elected at the same meeting, any appointment of such alternate Director pursuant to these Articles which was in force immediately before his retirement shall remain in force as though he had not retired.

DIRECTORS' FEES AND EXPENSES

96. The Directors shall receive such remuneration as the Board may from time to time determine. Each Director shall be entitled to be repaid or prepaid all traveling, hotel and incidental expenses reasonably incurred or expected to be incurred by him in attending meetings of the Board or committees of the board or general meetings or separate meetings of any class of shares or of debenture of the Company or otherwise in connection with the discharge of his duties as a Director. The ordinary remuneration of the Directors shall from time to time be determined by the Company in general meeting and shall (unless otherwise directed by the resolution by which it is voted) be divided amongst the Board in such proportions and in such manner as the Board may agree or, failing agreement, equally, except that any Director who shall hold office for part only of the period in respect of which such remuneration is payable shall be entitled only to rank in such division for a proportion of remuneration related to the period during which he has held office. Such remuneration shall be deemed to accrue from day to day.

97. Each Director shall be entitled to be repaid or prepaid all travelling, hotel and incidental expenses reasonably incurred or expected to be incurred by him in attending meetings of the Board or committees of the Board or general meetings or separate meetings of any class of shares or of debentures of the Company or otherwise in connection with the discharge of his duties as a Director.

98. Any Director who, by request, goes or resides abroad for any purpose of the Company or who performs services which in the opinion of the Board go beyond the ordinary duties of a Director may be paid such extra remuneration (whether by way of salary, commission, participation in profits or otherwise) as the Board may determine and such extra remuneration shall be in addition to or in substitution for any ordinary remuneration provided for by or pursuant to any other Article.

99. The Board shall obtain the approval of the Company in general meeting before making any payment to any Director or past Director of the Company by way of compensation for loss of office, or as consideration for or in connection with his retirement from office (not being payment to which the Director is contractually entitled).

DIRECTORS' INTERESTS

100. A Director may:

(a) hold any other office or place of profit with the Company (except that of Auditor) in conjunction with his office of Director for such period and upon such terms as the Board may determine. Any remuneration (whether by way of salary, commission, participation in profits or otherwise) paid to any Director in


- 28 -

respect of any such other office or place of profit shall be in addition to any remuneration provided for by or pursuant to any other Article;

(b) act by himself or his firm in a professional capacity for the Company (otherwise than as Auditor) and he or his firm may be remunerated for professional services as if he were not a Director;

(c) continue to be or become a director, managing director, joint managing director, deputy managing director, executive director, manager or other officer or member of any other company promoted by the Company or in which the Company may be interested as a vendor, shareholder or otherwise and (unless otherwise agreed) no such Director shall be accountable for any remuneration, profits or other benefits received by him as a director, managing director, joint managing director, deputy managing director, executive director, manager or other officer or member of or from his interests in any such other company. Subject as otherwise provided by these Articles the Directors may exercise or cause to be exercised the voting powers conferred by the shares in any other company held or owned by the Company, or exercisable by them as Directors of such other company in such manner in all respects as they think fit (including the exercise thereof in favour of any resolution appointing themselves or any of them directors, managing directors, joint managing directors, deputy managing directors, executive directors, managers or other officers of such company) or voting or providing for the payment of remuneration to the director, managing director, joint managing director, deputy managing director, executive director, manager or other officers of such other company and any Director may vote in favour of the exercise of such voting rights in manner aforesaid notwithstanding that he may be, or about to be, appointed a director, managing director, joint managing director, deputy managing director, executive director, manager or other officer of such a company, and that as such he is or may become interested in the exercise of such voting rights in manner aforesaid.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no "Independent Director" as defined under 303A of the NYSE Listing Standards or in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act, and with respect of whom the Board has determined constitutes an "Independent Director" for purposes of compliance with applicable law or the Company's listing requirements, shall without the consent of the Audit Committee take any of the foregoing actions or any other action that would reasonably be likely to affect such Director's status as an "Independent Director" of the Company.

101. Subject to the Law and to these Articles, no Director or proposed or intending Director shall be disqualified by his office from contracting with the Company, either with regard to his tenure of any office or place of profit or as vendor, purchaser or in any other manner whatever, nor shall any such contract or any other contract or arrangement in which any Director is in any way interested be liable to be avoided, nor shall any Director so contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company or the Members for any remuneration, profit or other benefits realised by any such contract or arrangement by reason of such Director holding that office or of the fiduciary relationship thereby established provided that such Director shall disclose the nature of his interest in any contract or arrangement in which he is interested in accordance with Article 102 herein. Any such transaction that would


- 29 -

reasonably be likely to affect a Director's status as an "Independent Director" under 303A of the NYSE Listing Standards, shall require the approval of the Audit Committee.

102. A Director who to his knowledge is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, interested in a contract or arrangement or proposed contract or arrangement with the Company shall declare the nature of his interest at the meeting of the Board at which the question of entering into the contract or arrangement is first considered, if he knows his interest then exists, or in any other case at the first meeting of the Board after he knows that he is or has become so interested. For the purposes of this Article, a general Notice to the Board by a Director to the effect that:

(a) he is a member or officer of a specified company or firm and is to be regarded as interested in any contract or arrangement which may after the date of the Notice be made with that company or firm; or

(b) he is to be regarded as interested in any contract or arrangement which may after the date of the Notice be made with a specified person who is connected with him;

shall be deemed to be a sufficient declaration of interest under this Article in relation to any such contract or arrangement, provided that no such Notice shall be effective unless either it is given at a meeting of the Board or the Director takes reasonable steps to secure that it is brought up and read at the next Board meeting after it is given.

103. Following a declaration being made pursuant to the last preceding two Articles, subject to any separate requirement for Audit Committee approval under applicable law or the listing rules of the Company's Designated Stock Exchange, and unless disqualified by the chairman of the relevant Board meeting, a Director may vote in respect of any contract or proposed contract or arrangement in which such Director is interested and may be counted in the quorum at such meeting.

GENERAL POWERS OF THE DIRECTORS

104. (1) The business of the Company shall be managed and conducted by the Board, which may pay all expenses incurred in forming and registering the Company and may exercise all powers of the Company (whether relating to the management of the business of the Company or otherwise) which are not by the Statutes or by these Articles required to be exercised by the Company in general meeting, subject nevertheless to the provisions of the Statutes and of these Articles and to such regulations being not inconsistent with such provisions, as may be prescribed by the Company in general meeting, but no regulations made by the Company in general meeting shall invalidate any prior act of the Board which would have been valid if such regulations had not been made.

The Board may delegate to any regional or local board, manager or agent any of the powers, authorities and discretions vested in or exercisable by the Board (other than its powers to make calls and forfeit shares), with power to sub-delegate, and may authorise the members of any of them to fill any vacancies therein and to act notwithstanding vacancies. Any such appointment or delegation may be made upon such terms and subject to such conditions as the Board may think fit, and the Board may remove any person appointed as aforesaid, and may revoke or vary such delegation, but no person dealing in good faith and without notice of any such revocation or variation shall be affected thereby.

106. The Board may by power of attorney appoint any company, firm or person or any fluctuating body of persons, whether nominated directly or indirectly by the Board, to be the attorney or attorneys of the Company for such purposes and with such powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those vested in or exercisable by the Board under these Articles) and for such period and subject to such conditions as it may think fit, and any such power of attorney may contain such provisions for the protection and convenience of persons dealing with any such attorney as the Board may think fit, and may also authorise any such attorney to sub-delegate all or any of the powers, authorities and discretions vested in him. Such attorney or attorneys may, if so authorised under the Seal of the Company, execute any deed or instrument under their personal seal with the same effect as the affixation of the Company's Seal.

107. The Board may entrust to and confer upon a managing director, joint managing director, deputy managing director, an executive director or any Director any of the powers exercisable by it upon such terms and conditions and with such restrictions as it thinks fit, and either collaterally with, or to the exclusion of, its own powers, and may from time to time

revoke or vary all or any of such powers but no person dealing in good faith and without notice of such revocation or variation shall be affected thereby.

108. All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other instruments, whether negotiable or transferable or not, and all receipts for moneys paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed, as the case may be, in such manner as the Board shall from time to time by resolution determine. The Company's banking accounts shall be kept with such banker or bankers as the Board shall from time to time determine.

109. (1) The Board may establish or concur or join with other companies (being subsidiary companies of the Company or companies with which it is associated in business) in establishing and making contributions out of the Company's moneys to any schemes or funds for providing pensions, sickness or compassionate allowances, life assurance or other benefits for employees (which expression as used in this and the following paragraph shall include any Director or ex-Director who may hold or have held any executive office or any office of profit under the Company or any of its subsidiary companies) and ex-employees of the Company and their dependants or any class or classes of such person.

Such resolution may be contained in one document or in several documents in like form each signed by one or more of the Directors and for this purpose a facsimile signature of a Director shall be treated as valid.

123.

- 37 -

duly and properly made and every share certificate so destroyed was a valid certificate duly and properly cancelled and that every instrument of transfer so destroyed was a valid and effective instrument duly and properly registered and that every other document destroyed hereunder was a valid and effective document in accordance with the recorded particulars thereof in the books or records of the Company.

DIVIDENDS AND OTHER PAYMENTS

136. Subject to the Law, the Company in general meeting or the Board may from time to time declare dividends in any currency to be paid to the Members but no dividend shall be declared in excess of the amount recommended by the Board.

137. Dividends may be declared and paid out of the profits of the Company, realised or unrealised, or from any reserve set aside from profits which the Directors determine is no longer needed. The Board may also declare and pay dividends out of share premium account or any other fund or account which can be authorised for this purpose in accordance with the Law.

138. Except in so far as the rights attaching to, or the terms of issue of, any share otherwise provide:

(a) all dividends shall be declared and paid according to the amounts paid up on the shares in respect of which the dividend is paid, but no amount paid up on a share in advance of calls shall be treated for the purposes of this Article as paid up on the share; and

(b) all dividends shall be apportioned and paid pro rata according to the amounts paid up on the shares during any portion or portions of the period in respect of which the dividend is paid.

139. The Board may from time to time pay to the Members such interim dividends as appear to the Board to be justified by the profits of the Company and in particular (but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes, the Board may pay such interim dividends in respect of those shares in the capital of the Company which confer on the holders thereof deferred or non-preferential rights as well as in respect of those shares which confer on the holders thereof


- 38 -

preferential rights with regard to dividend and provided that the Board acts bona fide the Board shall not incur any responsibility to the holders of shares conferring any preference for any damage that they may suffer by reason of the payment of an interim dividend on any shares having deferred or non-preferential rights and may also pay any fixed dividend which is payable on any shares of the Company half-yearly or on any other dates, whenever such profits, in the opinion of the Board, justifies such payment.

140. The Board may deduct from any dividend or other moneys payable to a Member by the Company on or in respect of any shares all sums of money (if any) presently payable by him to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.

141. No dividend or other moneys payable by the Company on or in respect of any share shall bear interest against the Company.

142. Any dividend, interest or other sum payable in cash to the holder of shares may be paid by cheque or warrant sent through the post addressed to the holder at his registered address or, in the case of joint holders, addressed to the holder whose name stands first in the Register in respect of the shares at his address as appearing in the Register or addressed to such person and at such address as the holder or joint holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant shall, unless the holder or joint holders otherwise direct, be made payable to the order of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the order of the holder whose name stands first on the Register in respect of such shares, and shall be sent at his or their risk and payment of the cheque or warrant by the bank on which it is drawn shall constitute a good discharge to the Company notwithstanding that it may subsequently appear that the same has been stolen or that any endorsement thereon has been forged. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any dividends or other moneys payable or property distributable in respect of the shares held by such joint holders.

143. All dividends or bonuses unclaimed for one (1) year after having been declared may be invested or otherwise made use of by the Board for the benefit of the Company until claimed. Any dividend or bonuses unclaimed after a period of six (6) years from the date of declaration shall be forfeited and shall revert to the Company. The payment by the Board of any unclaimed dividend or other sums payable on or in respect of a share into a separate account shall not constitute the Company a trustee in respect thereof.

144. Whenever the Board or the Company in general meeting has resolved that a dividend be paid or declared, the Board may further resolve that such dividend be satisfied wholly or in part by the distribution of specific assets of any kind and in particular of paid up shares, debentures or warrants to subscribe securities of the Company or any other company, or in any one or more of such ways, and where any difficulty arises in regard to the distribution the Board may settle the same as it thinks expedient, and in particular may issue certificates in respect of fractions of shares, disregard fractional entitlements or round the same up or down, and may fix the value for distribution of such specific assets, or any part thereof, and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any Members upon the footing of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of all parties, and may vest any such specific assets in trustees as may seem expedient to the Board and may appoint any person to sign any requisite instruments of transfer and other documents on behalf of the persons entitled to the dividend, and such appointment shall be effective and binding on the Members. The Board may resolve that no such assets shall be made available to Members with registered addresses in any particular territory or territories where, in the absence of a registration statement or other


- 39 -

special formalities, such distribution of assets would or might, in the opinion of the Board, be unlawful or impracticable and in such event the only entitlement of the Members aforesaid shall be to receive cash payments as aforesaid. Members affected as a result of the foregoing sentence shall not be or be deemed to be a separate class of Members for any purpose whatsoever.

145. (1) Whenever the Board or the Company in general meeting has resolved that a dividend be paid or declared on any class of the share capital of the Company, the Board may further resolve either:

(a) that such dividend be satisfied wholly or in part in the form of an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up, provided that the Members entitled thereto will be entitled to elect to receive such dividend (or part thereof if the Board so determines) in cash in lieu of such allotment. In such case, the following provisions shall apply:

(i) the basis of any such allotment shall be determined by the Board;

(ii) the Board, after determining the basis of allotment, shall give not less than ten (10) days' Notice to the holders of the relevant shares of the right of election accorded to them and shall send with such notice forms of election and specify the procedure to be followed and the place at which and the latest date and time by which duly completed forms of election must be lodged in order to be effective;

(iii) the right of election may be exercised in respect of the whole or part of that portion of the dividend in respect of which the right of election has been accorded; and

(iv) the dividend (or that part of the dividend to be satisfied by the allotment of shares as aforesaid) shall not be payable in cash on shares in respect whereof the cash election has not been duly exercised ("the non-elected shares") and in satisfaction thereof shares of the relevant class shall be allotted credited as fully paid up to the holders of the non-elected shares on the basis of allotment determined as aforesaid and for such purpose the Board shall capitalise and apply out of any part of the undivided profits of the Company (including profits carried and standing to the credit of any reserves or other special account, share premium account, capital redemption reserve other than the Subscription Rights Reserve) as the Board may determine, such sum as may be required to pay up in full the appropriate number of shares of the relevant class for allotment and distribution to and amongst the holders of the non-elected shares on such basis; or

(b) that the Members entitled to such dividend shall be entitled to elect to receive an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up in lieu of the whole or such part of the dividend as the Board may think fit. In such case, the following provisions shall apply:

(i) the basis of any such allotment shall be determined by the Board;


- 40 -

(ii) the Board, after determining the basis of allotment, shall give not less than ten (10) days' Notice to the holders of the relevant shares of the right of election accorded to them and shall send with such notice forms of election and specify the procedure to be followed and the place at which and the latest date and time by which duly completed forms of election must be lodged in order to be effective;

(iii) the right of election may be exercised in respect of the whole or part of that portion of the dividend in respect of which the right of election has been accorded; and

(iv) the dividend (or that part of the dividend in respect of which a right of election has been accorded) shall not be payable in cash on shares in respect whereof the share election has been duly exercised ("the elected shares") and in lieu thereof shares of the relevant class shall be allotted credited as fully paid up to the holders of the elected shares on the basis of allotment determined as aforesaid and for such purpose the Board shall capitalise and apply out of any part of the undivided profits of the Company (including profits carried and standing to the credit of any reserves or other special account, share premium account, capital redemption reserve other than the Subscription Rights Reserve) as the Board may determine, such sum as may be required to pay up in full the appropriate number of shares of the relevant class for allotment and distribution to and amongst the holders of the elected shares on such basis.

(2) (a) The shares allotted pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (1) of this Article shall rank pari passu in all respects with shares of the same class (if any) then in issue save only as regards participation in the relevant dividend or in any other distributions, bonuses or rights paid, made, declared or announced prior to or contemporaneously with the payment or declaration of the relevant dividend unless, contemporaneously with the announcement by the Board of their proposal to apply the provisions of sub-paragraph (a) or (b) of paragraph (2) of this Article in relation to the relevant dividend or contemporaneously with their announcement of the distribution, bonus or rights in question, the Board shall specify that the shares to be allotted pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (1) of this Article shall rank for participation in such distribution, bonus or rights.

(b) The Board may do all acts and things considered necessary or expedient to give effect to any capitalisation pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (1) of this Article, with full power to the Board to make such provisions as it thinks fit in the case of shares becoming distributable in fractions (including provisions whereby, in whole or in part, fractional entitlements are aggregated and sold and the net proceeds distributed to those entitled, or are disregarded or rounded up or down or whereby the benefit of fractional entitlements accrues to the Company rather than to the Members concerned). The Board may authorise any person to enter into on behalf of all Members interested, an agreement with the


- 41 -

Company providing for such capitalisation and matters incidental thereto and any agreement made pursuant to such authority shall be effective and binding on all concerned.

(3) The Company may upon the recommendation of the Board by ordinary resolution resolve in respect of any one particular dividend of the Company that notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (1) of this Article a dividend may be satisfied wholly in the form of an allotment of shares credited as fully paid up without offering any right to shareholders to elect to receive such dividend in cash in lieu of such allotment.

(4) The Board may on any occasion determine that rights of election and the allotment of shares under paragraph (1) of this Article shall not be made available or made to any shareholders with registered addresses in any territory where, in the absence of a registration statement or other special formalities, the circulation of an offer of such rights of election or the allotment of shares would or might, in the opinion of the Board, be unlawful or impracticable, and in such event the provisions aforesaid shall be read and construed subject to such determination. Members affected as a result of the foregoing sentence shall not be or be deemed to be a separate class of Members for any purpose whatsoever.

(5) Any resolution declaring a dividend on shares of any class, whether a resolution of the Company in general meeting or a resolution of the Board, may specify that the same shall be payable or distributable to the persons registered as the holders of such shares at the close of business on a particular date, notwithstanding that it may be a date prior to that on which the resolution is passed, and thereupon the dividend shall be payable or distributable to them in accordance with their respective holdings so registered, but without prejudice to the rights inter se in respect of such dividend of transferors and transferees of any such shares. The provisions of this Article shall mutatis mutandis apply to bonuses, capitalisation issues, distributions of realised capital profits or offers or grants made by the Company to the Members.

RESERVES

146. (1) The Board shall establish an account to be called the share premium account and shall carry to the credit of such account from time to time a sum equal to the amount or value of the premium paid on the issue of any share in the Company. Unless otherwise provided by the provisions of these Articles, the Board may apply the share premium account in any manner permitted by the Law. The Company shall at all times comply with the provisions of the Law in relation to the share premium account.

(2) Before recommending any dividend, the Board may set aside out of the profits of the Company such sums as it determines as reserves which shall, at the discretion of the Board, be applicable for any purpose to which the profits of the Company may be properly applied and pending such application may, also at such discretion, either be employed in the business of the Company or be invested in such investments as the Board may from time to time think fit and so that it shall not be necessary to keep any investments constituting the reserve or reserves separate or distinct from any other investments of the Company. The Board may also without placing the same to reserve carry forward any profits which it may think prudent not to distribute.


- 42 -

CAPITALISATION

147. The Company may, upon the recommendation of the Board, at any time and from time to time pass an ordinary resolution to the effect that it is desirable to capitalise all or any part of any amount for the time being standing to the credit of any reserve or fund (including a share premium account and capital redemption reserve and the profit and loss account) whether or not the same is available for distribution and accordingly that such amount be set free for distribution among the Members or any class of Members who would be entitled thereto if it were distributed by way of dividend and in the same proportions, on the footing that the same is not paid in cash but is applied either in or towards paying up the amounts for the time being unpaid on any shares in the Company held by such Members respectively or in paying up in full unissued shares, debentures or other obligations of the Company, to be allotted and distributed credited as fully paid up among such Members, or partly in one way and partly in the other, and the Board shall give effect to such resolution provided that, for the purposes of this Article, a share premium account and any capital redemption reserve or fund representing unrealised profits, may be applied only in paying up in full unissued shares of the Company to be allotted to such Members credited as fully paid.

148. The Board may settle, as it considers appropriate, any difficulty arising in regard to any distribution under the last preceding Article and in particular may issue certificates in respect of fractions of shares or authorise any person to sell and transfer any fractions or may resolve that the distribution should be as nearly as may be practicable in the correct proportion but not exactly so or may ignore fractions altogether, and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any Members in order to adjust the rights of all parties, as may seem expedient to the Board. The Board may appoint any person to sign on behalf of the persons entitled to participate in the distribution any contract necessary or desirable for giving effect thereto and such appointment shall be effective and binding upon the Members.

SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS RESERVE

149. The following provisions shall have effect to the extent that they are not prohibited by and are in compliance with the Law:

(1) If, so long as any of the rights attached to any warrants issued by the Company to subscribe for shares of the Company shall remain exercisable, the Company does any act or engages in any transaction which, as a result of any adjustments to the subscription price in accordance with the provisions of the conditions of the warrants, would reduce the subscription price to below the par value of a share, then the following provisions shall apply:

(a) as from the date of such act or transaction the Company shall establish and thereafter (subject as provided in this Article) maintain in accordance with the provisions of this Article a reserve (the "Subscription Rights Reserve") the amount of which shall at no time be less than the sum which for the time being would be required to be capitalised and applied in paying up in full the nominal amount of the additional shares required to be issued and allotted credited as fully paid pursuant to sub-paragraph (c) below on the exercise in full of all the subscription rights outstanding and shall apply the Subscription Rights Reserve in paying up such additional shares in full as and when the same are allotted;


- 43 -

(b) the Subscription Rights Reserve shall not be used for any purpose other than that specified above unless all other reserves of the Company (other than share premium account) have been extinguished and will then only be used to make good losses of the Company if and so far as is required by law;

(c) upon the exercise of all or any of the subscription rights represented by any warrant, the relevant subscription rights shall be exercisable in respect of a nominal amount of shares equal to the amount in cash which the holder of such warrant is required to pay on exercise of the subscription rights represented thereby (or, as the case may be the relevant portion thereof in the event of a partial exercise of the subscription rights) and, in addition, there shall be allotted in respect of such subscription rights to the exercising warrantholder, credited as fully paid, such additional nominal amount of shares as is equal to the difference between:

(i) the said amount in cash which the holder of such warrant is required to pay on exercise of the subscription rights represented thereby (or, as the case may be, the relevant portion thereof in the event of a partial exercise of the subscription rights); and

(ii) the nominal amount of shares in respect of which such subscription rights would have been exercisable having regard to the provisions of the conditions of the warrants, had it been possible for such subscription rights to represent the right to subscribe for shares at less than par and immediately upon such exercise so much of the sum standing to the credit of the Subscription Rights Reserve as is required to pay up in full such additional nominal amount of shares shall be capitalised and applied in paying up in full such additional nominal amount of shares which shall forthwith be allotted credited as fully paid to the exercising warrantholders; and

(d) if, upon the exercise of the subscription rights represented by any warrant, the amount standing to the credit of the Subscription Rights Reserve is not sufficient to pay up in full such additional nominal amount of shares equal to such difference as aforesaid to which the exercising warrantholder is entitled, the Board shall apply any profits or reserves then or thereafter becoming available
(including, to the extent permitted by law, share premium account) for such purpose until such additional nominal amount of shares is paid up and allotted as aforesaid and until then no dividend or other distribution shall be paid or made on the fully paid shares of the Company then in issue. Pending such payment and allotment, the exercising warrantholder shall be issued by the Company with a certificate evidencing his right to the allotment of such additional nominal amount of shares. The rights represented by any such certificate shall be in registered form and shall be transferable in whole or in part in units of one share in the like manner as the shares for the time being are transferable, and the Company shall make such arrangements in relation to the maintenance of a register therefor and other matters in relation thereto as the Board may think fit and adequate particulars thereof shall be made known to each relevant exercising warrantholder upon the issue of such certificate.


- 44 -

(2) Shares allotted pursuant to the provisions of this Article shall rank pari passu in all respects with the other shares allotted on the relevant exercise of the subscription rights represented by the warrant concerned. Notwithstanding anything contained in paragraph (1) of this Article, no fraction of any share shall be allotted on exercise of the subscription rights.

(3) The provision of this Article as to the establishment and maintenance of the Subscription Rights Reserve shall not be altered or added to in any way which would vary or abrogate, or which would have the effect of varying or abrogating the provisions for the benefit of any warrantholder or class of warrantholders under this Article without the sanction of a special resolution of such warrantholders or class of warrantholders.

(4) A certificate or report by the auditors for the time being of the Company as to whether or not the Subscription Rights Reserve is required to be established and maintained and if so the amount thereof so required to be established and maintained, as to the purposes for which the Subscription Rights Reserve has been used, as to the extent to which it has been used to make good losses of the Company, as to the additional nominal amount of shares required to be allotted to exercising warrantholders credited as fully paid, and as to any other matter concerning the Subscription Rights Reserve shall (in the absence of manifest error) be conclusive and binding upon the Company and all warrantholders and shareholders.

ACCOUNTING RECORDS

150. The Board shall cause true accounts to be kept of the sums of money received and expended by the Company, and the matters in respect of which such receipt and expenditure take place, and of the property, assets, credits and liabilities of the Company and of all other matters required by the Law or necessary to give a true and fair view of the Company's affairs and to explain its transactions.

151. The accounting records shall be kept at the Office or, at such other place or places as the Board decides and shall always be open to inspection by the Directors. No Member (other than a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any accounting record or book or document of the Company except as conferred by law or authorised by the Board or the Company in general meeting.

152. Subject to Article 153, a printed copy of the Directors' report, accompanied by the balance sheet and profit and loss account, including every document required by law to be annexed thereto, made up to the end of the applicable financial year and containing a summary of the assets and liabilities of the Company under convenient heads and a statement of income and expenditure, together with a copy of the Auditors' report, shall be sent to each person entitled thereto at least ten (10) days before the date of the general meeting and laid before the Company at the annual general meeting held in accordance with Article 56 provided that this Article shall not require a copy of those documents to be sent to any person whose address the Company is not aware or to more than one of the joint holders of any shares or debentures.

153.

prohibited by the Statutes, a summary financial statement derived from the Company's annual accounts and the directors' report which shall be in the form and containing the information required by applicable laws and regulations, provided that any person who is otherwise entitled to the annual financial statements of the Company and the directors' report thereon may, if he so requires by notice in writing served on the Company, demand that the Company sends to him, in addition to a summary financial statement, a complete printed copy of the Company's annual financial statement and the directors' report thereon.

154. The requirement to send to a person referred to in Article 152 the documents referred to in that article or a summary financial report in accordance with Article 153 shall be deemed satisfied where, in accordance with all applicable Statutes, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the rules of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Company publishes copies of the documents referred to in Article 152 and, if applicable, a summary financial report complying with Article 153, on the Company's computer network or in any other permitted manner (including by sending any form of electronic communication), and that person has agreed or is deemed to have agreed to treat the publication or receipt of such documents in such manner as discharging the Company's obligation to send to him a copy of such documents.

(2) A person, other than a retiring Auditor, shall not be capable of being appointed Auditor at an annual general meeting unless notice in writing of an intention to nominate that person to the office of Auditor has been given not less than fourteen (14) days before the annual general meeting and furthermore, the Company shall send a copy of any such notice to the retiring Auditor.

(3) The Members may, at any general meeting convened and held in accordance with these Articles, by special resolution remove the Auditor at any time before the expiration of his term of office and shall by ordinary resolution at that meeting appoint another Auditor in his stead for the remainder of his term.

156. Subject to the Law the accounts of the Company shall be audited at least once in every year.

157. The remuneration of the Auditor shall be fixed by the Company in general meeting or in such manner as the Members may determine.

- 46 -

when his services are required, the Directors shall fill the vacancy and determine the remuneration of such Auditor.

159. The Auditor shall at all reasonable times have access to all books kept by the Company and to all accounts and vouchers relating thereto; and he may call on the Directors or officers of the Company for any information in their possession relating to the books or affairs of the Company.

160. The statement of income and expenditure and the balance sheet provided for by these Articles shall be examined by the Auditor and compared by him with the books, accounts and vouchers relating thereto; and he shall make a written report thereon stating whether such statement and balance sheet are drawn up so as to present fairly the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations for the period under review and, in case information shall have been called for from Directors or officers of the Company, whether the same has been furnished and has been satisfactory. The financial statements of the Company shall be audited by the Auditor in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The Auditor shall make a written report thereon in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and the report of the Auditor shall be submitted to the Members in general meeting. The generally accepted auditing standards referred to herein may be those of a country or jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands. If so, the financial statements and the report of the Auditor should disclose this act and name such country or jurisdiction.

The notice of availability may be given to the Member by any of the means set out above. In the case of joint holders of a share all notices shall be given to that one of the joint holders whose name stands first in the Register and notice so given shall be deemed a sufficient service on or delivery to all the joint holders.

162. Any Notice or other document:

(a) if served or delivered by post, shall where appropriate be sent by airmail and shall be deemed to have been served or delivered on the day following that on which the envelope containing the same, properly prepaid and addressed, is put

163. (1) Any Notice or other document delivered or sent by post to or left at the registered address of any Member in pursuance of these Articles shall, notwithstanding that such Member is then dead or bankrupt or that any other event has occurred, and whether or not the Company has notice of the death or bankruptcy or other event, be deemed to have been duly served or delivered in respect of any share registered in the name of such Member as sole or joint holder unless his name shall, at the time of the service or delivery of the notice or document, have been removed from the Register as the holder of the share, and such service or delivery shall for all purposes be deemed a sufficient service or delivery of such Notice or document on all persons interested (whether jointly with or as claiming through or under him) in the share.

(2) A notice may be given by the Company to the person entitled to a share in consequence of the death, mental disorder or bankruptcy of a Member by sending it through the post in a prepaid letter, envelope or wrapper addressed to him by name, or by the title of representative of the deceased, or trustee of the bankrupt, or by any like description, at the address, if any, supplied for the purpose by the person claiming to be so entitled, or (until such an address has been so supplied) by giving the notice in any manner in which the same might have been given if the death, mental disorder or bankruptcy had not occurred.

SIGNATURES

164. For the purposes of these Articles, a cable or telex or facsimile or electronic transmission message purporting to come from a holder of shares or, as the case may be, a Director, or, in the case of a corporation which is a holder of shares from a director or the secretary thereof or a duly appointed attorney or duly authorised representative thereof for it and on its behalf, shall in the absence of express evidence to the contrary available to the person relying thereon at the relevant time be deemed to be a document or instrument in writing signed by such holder or Director in the terms in which it is received.

WINDING UP

165. (1) The Board shall have power in the name and on behalf of the Company to present a petition to the court for the Company to be wound up.

(2) A resolution that the Company be wound up by the court or be wound up voluntarily shall be a special resolution.

166. (1) Subject to any special rights, privileges or restrictions as to the distribution of available surplus assets on liquidation for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares (i) if the Company shall be wound up and the assets available for distribution amongst the Members of the Company shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the capital paid up at the commencement of the winding up, the excess shall be distributed pari passu amongst such members in proportion to the amount paid up on the shares held by them respectively and (ii) if the Company shall be wound up and the assets available for distribution amongst the Members as such shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the paid-up capital such assets shall be distributed so that, a nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the Members in proportion to the capital paid up, or which ought to have been paid up, at the commencement of the winding up on the shares held by them respectively.

(2) If the Company shall be wound up (whether the liquidation is voluntary or by the court) the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution and any other sanction required by the Law, divide among the Members in specie or kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company and whether or not the assets shall consist of properties of one kind or shall consist of properties to be divided as aforesaid of different kinds, and may for such purpose set such value as he deems fair upon any one or more class or classes of property and may determine how such division shall be carried out as between the Members or different classes of Members. The liquidator may, with the like authority, vest any part of the assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the Members as the liquidator with the like authority shall think fit, and the liquidation of the Company may be closed and the Company dissolved, but so that no contributory shall be compelled to accept any shares or other property in respect of which there is a liability.

(3) In the event of winding-up of the Company in the People's Republic of China, every Member of the Company who is not for the time being in the People's Republic of China shall be bound, within 14 days after the passing of an effective resolution to wind up the Company voluntarily, or the making of an order for the winding-up of the Company, to serve


notice in writing on the Company appointing some person resident in the People's Republic of China and stating that person's full name, address and occupation upon whom all summonses, notices, process, orders and judgements in relation to or under the winding-up of the Company may be served, and in default of such nomination the liquidator of the Company shall be at liberty on behalf of such Member to appoint some such person, and service upon any such appointee, whether appointed by the Member or the liquidator, shall be deemed to be good personal service on such Member for all purposes, and, where the liquidator makes any such appointment, he shall with all convenient speed give notice thereof to such Member by advertisement as he shall deem appropriate or by a registered letter sent through the post and addressed to such Member at his address as appearing in the register, and such notice shall be deemed to be service on the day following that on which the advertisement first appears or the letter is posted.

INDEMNITY

167. (1) The Directors, Secretary and other officers and every Auditor for the time being of the Company and the liquidator or trustees (if any) for the time being acting in relation to any of the affairs of the Company and everyone of them, and everyone of their heirs, executors and administrators, shall be indemnified and secured harmless out of the assets and profits of the Company from and against all actions, costs, charges, losses, damages and expenses which they or any of them, their or any of their heirs, executors or administrators, shall or may incur or sustain by or by reason of any act done, concurred in or omitted in or about the execution of their duty, or supposed duty, in their respective offices or trusts; and none of them shall be answerable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of the other or others of them or for joining in any receipts for the sake of conformity, or for any bankers or other persons with whom any moneys or effects belonging to the Company shall or may be lodged or deposited for safe custody, or for insufficiency or deficiency of any security upon which any moneys of or belonging to the Company shall be placed out on or invested, or for any other loss, misfortune or damage which may happen in the execution of their respective offices or trusts, or in relation thereto; PROVIDED THAT this indemnity shall not extend to any matter in respect of any fraud or dishonesty which may attach to any of said persons.

(2) Each Member agrees to waive any claim or right of action he might have, whether individually or by or in the right of the Company, against any Director on account of any action taken by such Director, or the failure of such Director to take any action in the performance of his duties with or for the Company; PROVIDED THAT such waiver shall not extend to any matter in respect of any fraud or dishonesty which may attach to such Director.

AMENDMENT TO MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION
AND NAME OF COMPANY

168. No Article shall be rescinded, altered or amended and no new Article shall be made until the same has been approved by a special resolution of the Members. A special resolution shall be required to alter the provisions of the Memorandum of Association or to change the name of the Company.


- 50 -

DEPOSIT AGREEMENT dated as of , 2007 (the "Deposit Agreement") among YINGLI GREEN ENERGY HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED and its successors (the "Company"), JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as depositary hereunder (the "Depositary"), and all holders from time to time of American Depositary Receipts issued hereunder ("ADRs") evidencing American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") representing deposited Shares (defined below). The Company hereby appoints the Depositary as depositary for the Deposited Securities and hereby authorizes and directs the Depositary to act in accordance with the terms set forth in this Deposit Agreement. All capitalized terms used herein have the meanings ascribed to them in Section 1 or elsewhere in this Deposit Agreement. The parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Certain Definitions.

(a) "ADR Register" is defined in paragraph (3) of the form of ADR.

(b) "ADRs" mean the American Depositary Receipts executed and delivered hereunder. ADRs may be either in physical certificated form or Direct Registration ADRs. ADRs in physical certificated form, and the terms and conditions governing the Direct Registration ADRs (as hereinafter defined), shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A annexed hereto (the "form of ADR"). The term "Direct Registration ADR" means an ADR, the ownership of which is recorded on the Direct Registration System. References to "ADRs" shall include certificated ADRs and Direct Registration ADRs, unless the context otherwise requires. The form of ADR is hereby incorporated herein and made a part hereof; the provisions of the form of ADR shall be binding upon the parties hereto.

(c) Subject to paragraph (13) of the form of ADR, each "ADS" evidenced by an ADR represents the right to receive one Share and a pro rata share in any other Deposited Securities.

(d) "Custodian" means the agent or agents of the Depositary (singly or collectively, as the context requires) and any additional or substitute Custodian appointed pursuant to Section 9.

(e) The terms "deliver", "execute", "issue", "register", "surrender", "transfer" or "cancel", when used with respect to Direct Registration ADRs, shall refer to an entry or entries or an electronic transfer or transfers in the Direct Registration System, and, when used with respect to ADRs in physical certificated form, shall refer to the physical delivery, execution, issuance, registration, surrender, transfer or cancellation of certificates representing the ADRs.

(f) "Delivery Order" is defined in Section 3.

(g) "Deposited Securities" as of any time means all Shares at such time deposited under this Deposit Agreement and any and all other Shares, securities, property and cash at such time held by the Depositary or the Custodian in respect or in lieu of such deposited Shares and other Shares, securities, property and cash.

(h) "Direct Registration System" means the system for the uncertificated registration of ownership of securities established by The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") and utilized by the Depositary pursuant to which the Depositary may record the ownership of ADRs without the issuance of a certificate, which ownership shall be evidenced by

- 1 -

periodic statements issued by the Depositary to the Holders entitled thereto. For purposes hereof, the Direct Registration System shall include access to the Profile Modification System maintained by DTC which provides for automated transfer of ownership between DTC and the Depositary.

(i) "Holder" means the person or persons in whose name an ADR is registered on the ADR Register.

(j) "Securities Act of 1933" means the United States Securities Act of 1933, as from time to time amended.

(k) "Securities Exchange Act of 1934" means the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as from time to time amended.

(l) "Shares" mean the ordinary shares of the Company, and shall include the rights to receive Shares specified in paragraph (1) of the form of ADR.

(m) "Transfer Office" is defined in paragraph (3) of the form of ADR.

(n) "Withdrawal Order" is defined in Section 6.

2. ADRs.

(a) ADRs in certificated form shall be engraved, printed or otherwise reproduced at the discretion of the Depositary in accordance with its customary practices in its American depositary receipt business, or at the request of the Company typewritten and photocopied on plain or safety paper, and shall be substantially in the form set forth in the form of ADR, with such changes as may be required by the Depositary or the Company to comply with their obligations hereunder, any applicable law, regulation or usage or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular ADRs are subject. ADRs may be issued in denominations of any number of ADSs. ADRs in certificated form shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary. ADRs in certificated form bearing the facsimile signature of anyone who was at the time of execution a duly authorized officer of the Depositary shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding that such officer has ceased to hold such office prior to the delivery of such ADRs.

(b) Direct Registration ADRs. Notwithstanding anything in this Deposit Agreement or in the form of ADR to the contrary, ADSs shall be evidenced by Direct Registration ADRs, unless certificated ADRs are specifically requested by the Holder.

(c) Holders shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement and of the form of ADR, regardless of whether their ADRs are Direct Registration ADRs or certificated ADRs.

3. Deposit of Shares.

In connection with the deposit of Shares hereunder, the Depositary or the Custodian may require the following in form satisfactory to it: (a) a written order directing the Depositary to issue to, or upon the written order of, the person or persons designated in such order a Direct Registration ADR or ADRs evidencing the number of ADSs

- 2 -

representing such deposited Shares (a "Delivery Order"); (b) proper endorsements or duly executed instruments of transfer in respect of such deposited Shares; (c) instruments assigning to the Custodian or its nominee any distribution on or in respect of such deposited Shares or indemnity therefor; and (d) proxies entitling the Custodian to vote such deposited Shares. As soon as practicable after the Custodian receives Deposited Securities pursuant to any such deposit or pursuant to paragraph
(10) or (13) of the form of ADR, the Custodian shall present such Deposited Securities for registration of transfer into the name of the Custodian or its nominee, to the extent such registration is practicable, at the cost and expense of the person making such deposit (or for whose benefit such deposit is made) and shall obtain evidence satisfactory to it of such registration. Deposited Securities shall be held by the Custodian for the account and to the order of the Depositary at such place or places and in such manner as the Depositary shall determine. Deposited Securities may be delivered by the Custodian to any person only under the circumstances expressly contemplated in this Deposit Agreement. To the extent that the provisions of or governing the Shares make delivery of certificates therefor impracticable, Shares may be deposited hereunder by such delivery thereof as the Depositary or the Custodian may reasonably accept, including, without limitation, by causing them to be credited to an account maintained by the Custodian for such purpose with the Company or an accredited intermediary, such as a bank, acting as a registrar for the Shares, together with delivery of the documents, payments and Delivery Order referred to herein to the Custodian or the Depositary.

4. Issue of ADRs.

After any such deposit of Shares, the Custodian shall notify the Depositary of such deposit and of the information contained in any related Delivery Order by letter, first class airmail postage prepaid, or, at the request, risk and expense of the person making the deposit, by cable, telex or facsimile transmission. After receiving such notice from the Custodian, the Depositary, subject to this Deposit Agreement, shall properly issue at the Transfer Office, to or upon the order of any person named in such notice, an ADR or ADRs registered as requested and evidencing the aggregate ADSs to which such person is entitled.

5. Distributions on Deposited Securities.

To the extent that the Depositary determines in its reasonable discretion that any distribution pursuant to paragraph (10) of the form of ADR is not practicable with respect to any Holder, the Depositary may make such distribution as it so deems practicable, including the distribution of foreign currency, securities or property (or appropriate documents evidencing the right to receive foreign currency, securities or property) or the retention thereof as Deposited Securities with respect to such Holder's ADRs (without liability for interest thereon or the investment thereof).

6. Withdrawal of Deposited Securities.

In connection with any surrender of an ADR for withdrawal of the Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs evidenced thereby, the Depositary may require proper endorsement in blank of such ADR (or duly executed instruments of transfer thereof in blank) and the Holder's written order directing the Depositary to cause the Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs evidenced by such ADR to be withdrawn and

- 3 -

delivered to, or upon the written order of, any person designated in such order (a "Withdrawal Order"). Directions from the Depositary to the Custodian to deliver Deposited Securities shall be given by letter, first class airmail postage prepaid, or, at the request, risk and expense of the Holder, by cable, telex or facsimile transmission. Delivery of Deposited Securities may be made by the delivery of certificates (which, if required by law shall be properly endorsed or accompanied by properly executed instruments of transfer or, if such certificates may be registered, registered in the name of such Holder or as ordered by such Holder in any Withdrawal Order) or by such other means as the Depositary may deem practicable, including, without limitation, by transfer of record ownership thereof to an account designated in the Withdrawal Order maintained either by the Company or an accredited intermediary, such as a bank, acting as a registrar for the Deposited Securities.

7. Substitution of ADRs.

The Depositary shall execute and deliver a new Direct Registration ADR in exchange and substitution for any mutilated certificated ADR upon cancellation thereof or in lieu of and in substitution for such destroyed, lost or stolen certificated ADR, unless the Depositary has notice that such ADR has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, upon the Holder thereof filing with the Depositary a request for such execution and delivery and a sufficient indemnity bond and satisfying any other reasonable requirements imposed by the Depositary.

8. Cancellation and Destruction of ADRs.

All ADRs surrendered to the Depositary shall be cancelled by the Depositary. The Depositary is authorized to destroy ADRs in certificated form so cancelled in accordance with its customary practices. The Depositary agrees to maintain or cause its agents to maintain records of all ADRs surrendered and Deposited Securities withdrawn under Section 6 hereof and paragraph (2) of the form of ADR, substitute ADRs delivered under Section 7 hereof, and cancelled or destroyed ADRs under this Section 8, in keeping with the procedures ordinarily followed by stock transfer agents located in the City of New York or as otherwise required by the laws or regulations governing the Depositary.

9. The Custodian.

Any Custodian in acting hereunder shall be subject to the directions of the Depositary and shall be responsible solely to it. The Depositary shall be responsible for the compliance by the Custodian with any applicable provisions of the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary may from time to time appoint one or more agents to act for it as Custodian hereunder. Each Custodian so appointed (other than JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.) shall give written notice to the Company and the Depositary accepting such appointment and agreeing to be bound by the applicable terms hereof. Any Custodian may resign from its duties hereunder by at least 30 days written notice to the Depositary. The Depositary may discharge any Custodian at any time upon notice to the Custodian being discharged. Any Custodian ceasing to act hereunder as Custodian shall deliver, upon the instruction of the Depositary, all Deposited Securities held by it to a Custodian continuing to act. If upon the effectiveness of such resignation there would be no Custodian acting hereunder, the Depositary shall, promptly after receiving such notice,

- 4 -

appoint a substitute custodian or custodians, each of which shall thereafter be a Custodian hereunder.

YINGLI GREEN ENERGY HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED

(Incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands)

JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., a national banking association organized under the laws of the United States of America, as depositary hereunder (the "Depositary"), hereby certifies that is the registered owner (a "Holder") of American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"), each (subject to paragraph (13)) representing one ordinary share (including the rights to receive Shares described in paragraph (1), "Shares" and, together with any other securities, cash or property from time to time held by the Depositary in respect or in lieu of deposited Shares, the "Deposited Securities"), of YINGLI GREEN ENERGY HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED, a corporation organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the "Company"), deposited under the Deposit Agreement dated as of , 2007 (as amended from time to time, the "Deposit Agreement") among the Company, the Depositary and all Holders from time to time of American Depositary Receipts issued thereunder ("ADRs"), each of whom by accepting an ADR becomes a party thereto. The Deposit Agreement and this ADR (which includes the provisions set forth on the reverse hereof) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

(1) Issuance of ADRs. This ADR is one of the ADRs issued under the Deposit Agreement. Subject to paragraph (4), the Depositary may so issue ADRs for delivery at the Transfer

A-1

Office (defined in paragraph (3)) only against deposit with the Custodian of: (a) Shares in form reasonably satisfactory to the Custodian; (b) rights to receive Shares from the Company or any registrar, transfer agent, clearing agent or other entity recording Share ownership or transactions; or, (c) other rights to receive Shares (until such Shares are actually deposited pursuant to (a) or (b) above, "Pre-released ADRs") only if (i) Pre-released ADRs are fully collateralized (marked to market daily) with cash or U.S. government securities held by the Depositary for the benefit of Holders (but such collateral shall not constitute "Deposited Securities"), (ii) each recipient of Pre-released ADRs represents and agrees in writing with the Depositary that such recipient
(a) owns such Shares, (b) assigns all beneficial right, title and interest therein to the Depositary, (c) holds such Shares for the account of the Depositary, (d) will deliver such Shares to the Custodian as soon as practicable and promptly upon demand therefor and (e) will not take any action that is inconsistent with the transfer of beneficial ownership to the Depositary, and (iii) all Pre-released ADRs evidence not more than 30% of all ADSs (excluding those evidenced by Pre-released ADRs) and (vi) Pre-released ADRs are terminable on not more than five (5) business days notice, provided, however, that the Depositary reserves the right to change or disregard such limit from time to time as it deems appropriate. The Depositary may retain for its own account any earnings on collateral for Pre-released ADRs and its charges for issuance thereof. At the request, risk and expense of the person depositing Shares, the Depositary may accept deposits for forwarding to the Custodian and may deliver ADRs at a place other than its office. Every person depositing Shares under the Deposit Agreement represents and warrants that such Shares are validly issued and outstanding, fully paid, nonassessable and free of pre-emptive rights, that the person making such deposit is duly authorized so to do and that such Shares (A) are not "restricted securities" as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 unless at the time of deposit they may be freely transferred in accordance with Rule 144(k) and may otherwise be offered and sold freely in the United States or (B) have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. Such representations and warranties shall survive the deposit of Shares and issuance of ADRs. The Depositary will not knowingly accept for deposit under the Deposit Agreement any Shares required to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and not so registered; the Depositary may refuse to accept for such deposit any Shares identified by the Company in order to facilitate the Company's compliance with such Act.

(2) Withdrawal of Deposited Securities. Subject to paragraphs (4) and (5), upon surrender of (i) a certificated ADR in form satisfactory to the Depositary at the Transfer Office or (ii) proper instructions and documentation in the case of a Direct Registration ADR, the Holder hereof is entitled to delivery at the Custodian's office of the Deposited Securities at the time represented by the ADSs evidenced by this ADR. At the request, risk and expense of the Holder hereof, the Depositary may deliver such Deposited Securities at such other place as may have been requested by the Holder. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Deposit Agreement or this ADR, the withdrawal of Deposited Securities may be restricted only for the reasons set forth in General Instruction I.A.(1) of Form F-6 (as such instructions may be amended from time to time) under the Securities Act of 1933.

(3) Transfers of ADRs. The Depositary or its agent will keep, at a designated transfer office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York (the "Transfer Office"), (a) a register (the "ADR Register") for the registration, registration of transfer, combination and split-up of ADRs, and, in the case of Direct Registration ADRs, shall include the Direct Registration System, which at all reasonable times will be open for inspection by Holders and the Company for the purpose of communicating with Holders in the interest of the business of the Company or a matter relating to the Deposit Agreement and (b) facilities for the delivery and receipt of ADRs. The term ADR Register includes the Direct Registration System. Title to this ADR (and to the Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs evidenced hereby), when properly endorsed (in the case of ADRs in certificated form) or upon delivery to the Depositary of proper instruments of transfer, is transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of negotiable instruments under the laws of the State of New York; provided that the Depositary, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, may treat the person in whose name this ADR is registered on the ADR Register as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes and neither the Depositary nor the Company will have any obligation or be subject to any liability under the Deposit Agreement to any holder of an ADR, unless such holder is the Holder thereof. Subject to paragraphs (4) and (5), this ADR is transferable on the ADR Register and may be split into other ADRs or combined with other ADRs into one ADR, evidencing the aggregate number of ADSs surrendered for split-up or combination, by the Holder hereof or by duly authorized attorney upon surrender of this ADR at the Transfer Office properly endorsed (in the case of ADRs in certificated form) or upon delivery to the Depositary of proper instruments of transfer and duly stamped as may be required by applicable law; provided that the Depositary may close the ADR Register at any time or from time to time when deemed expedient by it or requested by the Company. At the request of a Holder, the Depositary shall, for the purpose of substituting a certificated ADR with a Direct Registration ADR, or vice versa, execute and deliver a certificated ADR or a Direct Registration ADR, as the case may be, for any authorized number of ADSs requested, evidencing the same aggregate number of ADSs as those evidenced by the certificated ADR or Direct Registration ADR, as the case may be, substituted.

(4) Certain Limitations. Prior to the issue, registration, registration of transfer, split-up or combination of any ADR, the delivery of any distribution in respect thereof, or, subject to the last sentence of paragraph (2), the withdrawal of any Deposited Securities, and from time to time in the case of clause (b)(ii) of this paragraph (4), the Company, the Depositary or the Custodian may require: (a) payment with respect thereto of (i) any stock transfer or other tax or other governmental charge, (ii) any stock transfer or registration fees in effect for the registration of transfers of Shares or other Deposited Securities upon any applicable register and (iii) any applicable charges as provided in paragraph (7) of this ADR; (b) the production of proof satisfactory to it of (i) the identity of any signatory and genuineness of any signature and
(ii) such other information, including without limitation, information as to citizenship, residence, exchange control approval, beneficial ownership of any securities, compliance with applicable law, regulations, provisions of or governing Deposited Securities and terms of the Deposit Agreement and this ADR, as it may deem necessary or proper; and (c) compliance with such regulations as the Depositary may establish consistent with the Deposit Agreement.

A-3

The issuance of ADRs, the acceptance of deposits of Shares, the registration, registration of transfer, split-up or combination of ADRs or, subject to the last sentence of paragraph (2), the withdrawal of Deposited Securities may be suspended, generally or in particular instances, when the ADR Register or any register for Deposited Securities is closed or when any such action is deemed advisable by the Depositary or the Company.

(5) Taxes. If any tax or other governmental charge shall become payable by or on behalf of the Custodian or the Depositary with respect to this ADR, any Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs evidenced hereby or any distribution thereon, such tax or other governmental charge shall be paid by the Holder hereof to the Depositary. The Depositary may refuse to effect any registration, registration of transfer, split-up or combination hereof or, subject to the last sentence of paragraph (2), any withdrawal of such Deposited Securities until such payment is made. The Depositary may also deduct from any distributions on or in respect of Deposited Securities, or may sell by public or private sale for the account of the Holder hereof any part or all of such Deposited Securities (after attempting by reasonable means to notify the Holder hereof prior to such sale), and may apply such deduction or the proceeds of any such sale in payment of such tax or other governmental charge, the Holder hereof remaining liable for any deficiency, and shall reduce the number of ADSs evidenced hereby to reflect any such sales of Shares. In connection with any distribution to Holders, the Company will remit to the appropriate governmental authority or agency all amounts (if any) required to be withheld and owing to such authority or agency by the Company; and the Depositary and the Custodian will remit to the appropriate governmental authority or agency all amounts (if any) required to be withheld and owing to such authority or agency by the Depositary or the Custodian. The Depositary will forward to the Company such information from its records as the Company may reasonably request to enable the Company to file any necessary reports with governmental authorities or agencies. If the Depositary determines that any distribution in property other than cash (including Shares or rights) on Deposited Securities is subject to any tax that the Depositary or the Custodian is obligated to withhold, the Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of such property in such amounts and in such manner as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay such taxes, by public or private sale, and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale or the balance of any such property after deduction of such taxes to the Holders entitled thereto. Each Holder of an ADR or an interest therein agrees to indemnify the Depositary, the Company, the Custodian and any of their respective directors, employees, agents and affiliates against, and hold each of them harmless from, any claims by any governmental authority with respect to taxes, additions to tax, penalties or interest arising out of any refund of taxes, reduced rate of withholding at source or other tax benefit obtained.

(6) Disclosure of Interests. To the extent that the provisions of or governing any Deposited Securities may require disclosure of or impose limits on beneficial or other ownership of Deposited Securities, other Shares and other securities and may provide for blocking transfer, voting or other rights to enforce such disclosure or limits, Holders and all persons holding ADRs agree to comply with all such disclosure requirements and ownership limitations and to comply with any reasonable Company instructions in respect thereof. The Depositary agrees to forward, upon the request and at the expenses

A-4

of the Company, any written request for beneficial ownership information from the Company to the Holders, and at the Company's expense, to promptly forward to the Company any responses received by the Depositary. The Company reserves the right to instruct Holders to deliver their ADSs for cancellation and withdrawal of the Deposited Securities so as to permit the Company to deal directly with the Holder thereof as a holder of Shares and Holders agree to comply with such instructions. The Depositary agrees to cooperate with the Company in its efforts to inform Holders of the Company's exercise of its rights under this paragraph and agrees to consult with, and provide reasonable assistance without risk, liability or expense on the part of the Depositary, to the Company on the manner or manners in which it may enforce such rights with respect to any Holder.

(7) Charges of Depositary. For the benefit of the Depositary and/or the Company, the Depositary may charge (i) each person to whom ADSs are issued, including, without limitation, issuances against deposits of Shares, issuances in respect of Share Distributions, Rights and Other Distributions (as such terms are defined in paragraph (10)), issuances pursuant to a stock dividend or stock split declared by the Company, or issuances pursuant to a merger, exchange of securities or any other transaction or event affecting the ADSs or the Deposited Securities, and

As soon as practicable after receipt from the Company of notice of any meeting or solicitation of consents or proxies of holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall distribute to Holders a notice stating (a) such information as is contained in such notice and any solicitation materials, (b) that each Holder on the record date set by the Depositary therefor will, subject to any applicable provisions of the Cayman Islands law, be entitled to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights, if any, pertaining to the Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs evidenced by such Holder's ADRs and (c) the manner in which such instructions may be given or deemed given, including instructions to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company. Upon receipt of instructions of a Holder on such record date in the manner and on or before the date established by the Depositary for such purpose, the Depositary shall endeavor insofar as practicable and permitted under the provisions of or governing Deposited Securities to vote or cause to be voted the Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs evidenced by such Holder's ADRs in accordance with such instructions. The Depositary will not itself exercise any voting discretion in respect of any Deposited Securities. To the extent such instructions are not so received by the Depositary from any Holder, the Depositary shall deem such Holder to have so instructed the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company and the Depositary shall endeavor insofar as practicable and permitted under the provisions of or governing Deposited Securities to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company to vote the Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs evidenced by such Holder's ADRs as to which such instructions are so given, provided that no such instruction shall be deemed given and no discretionary proxy shall be given with respect to any matter as to which the Company informs the Depositary (and the Company agrees to provide such information promptly in writing) or the Depositary reasonably believes (in the case of (y) or (z) below) that (x) the Company does not wish such proxy given, (y) substantial opposition exists or (z) materially affects the rights of holders of Shares. There is no guarantee that Holders generally or any Holder in particular will receive the notice described above with sufficient time to enable such Holder to return any voting instructions to the Depositary in a timely manner.

(13) Changes Affecting Deposited Securities. Subject to paragraphs (4) and (5), the Depositary may, in its discretion, amend this ADR or distribute additional or amended ADRs (with or without calling this ADR for exchange) or cash, securities or property on the record date set by the Depositary therefor to reflect any change in par value, split-up, consolidation, cancellation or other reclassification of Deposited Securities, any Share

A-9

Distribution or Other Distribution not distributed to Holders or any cash, securities or property available to the Depositary in respect of Deposited Securities from (and the Depositary is hereby authorized to surrender any Deposited Securities to any person and, irrespective of whether such Deposited Securities are surrendered or otherwise cancelled by operation of law, rule, regulation or otherwise, to sell by public or private sale any property received in connection with) any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, liquidation, receivership, bankruptcy or sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company, and to the extent the Depositary does not so amend this ADR or make a distribution to Holders to reflect any of the foregoing, or the net proceeds thereof, whatever cash, securities or property results from any of the foregoing shall constitute Deposited Securities and each ADS evidenced by this ADR shall automatically represent its pro rata interest in the Deposited Securities as then constituted.

(14) Exoneration. The Depositary, the Company, their agents and each of them shall: (a) incur no liability (i) if any present or future law, rule, regulation, fiat, order or decree of the United States, the Cayman Islands, the People's Republic of China or any other country, or of any governmental or regulatory authority or any securities exchange or market or automated quotation system, the provisions of or governing any Deposited Securities, any present or future provision of the Company's charter, any act of God, war, terrorism or other circumstance beyond its control shall prevent, delay or subject to any civil or criminal penalty any act which the Deposit Agreement or this ADR provides shall be done or performed by it or them (including, without limitation, voting pursuant to paragraph (12) hereof), or (ii) by reason of any exercise or failure to exercise any discretion given it in the Deposit Agreement or this ADR; (b) assume no liability except to perform its obligations to the extent they are specifically set forth in this ADR and the Deposit Agreement without gross negligence or bad faith; (c) in the case of the Depositary and its agents, be under no obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any Deposited Securities or this ADR; (d) in the case of the Company and its agents hereunder be under no obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any Deposited Securities or this ADR, which in its opinion may involve it in expense or liability, unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all expense (including fees and disbursements of counsel) and liability be furnished as often as may be required; or (e) not be liable for any action or inaction by it in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting Shares for deposit, any Holder, or any other person believed by it to be competent to give such advice or information. The Depositary, its agents and the Company may rely and shall be protected in acting upon any written notice, request, direction or other document believed by them to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Depositary and its agents will not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote any of the Deposited Securities, for the manner in which any such vote is cast or for the effect of any such vote. The Depositary and its agents may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its affiliates and in ADRs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Deposit Agreement or an ADR, the Depositary and its agents may fully respond to any and all demands or requests for information maintained by or on its behalf in connection with the Deposit Agreement, any Holder or Holders, any ADR or ADRs or otherwise related hereto to the extent such information is requested or

A-10

required by or pursuant to any lawful authority, including without limitation laws, rules, regulations, administrative or judicial process, banking, securities or other regulators. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Depositary and its agents under certain circumstances and the Depositary has agreed to indemnify the Company under certain circumstances. Neither the Company nor the Depositary nor any of their respective agents shall be liable to Holders or beneficial owners of interests in ADSs for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages. No disclaimer of liability under the Securities Act of 1933 is intended by any provision hereof.

(15) Resignation and Removal of Depositary; the Custodian.

The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by no less than 60 days prior written notice of such removal delivered to the Depositary. The Depositary may appoint substitute or additional Custodians and the term "Custodian" refers to each Custodian or all Custodians as the context requires.

(16) Amendment. Subject to the last sentence of paragraph (2), the ADRs and the Deposit Agreement may be amended by the Company and the Depositary, provided that any amendment that imposes or increases any fees or charges (other than stock transfer or other taxes and other governmental charges, transfer or registration fees, cable, telex or facsimile transmission costs, delivery costs or other such expenses), or that shall otherwise prejudice any substantial existing right of Holders, shall become effective 30 days after notice of such amendment shall have been given to the Holders. Every Holder of an ADR at the time any amendment to the Deposit Agreement so becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such ADR, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. In no event shall any amendment impair the right of the Holder of any ADR to surrender such ADR and receive the Deposited Securities represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law. Any amendments or supplements which (i) are reasonably necessary (as agreed by the Company and the Depositary) in order for (a) the ADSs to be registered on Form F-6 under the Securities Act of 1933 or (b) the ADSs or Shares to be traded solely in electronic book-entry form and (ii) do not in either such case impose or increase any fees or charges to be borne by Holders, shall be deemed not to prejudice any substantial rights of Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any governmental body or regulatory body should adopt new laws, rules or regulations which would require amendment or supplement of the Deposit Agreement or the form of ADR to ensure compliance therewith, the Company and the Depositary may amend or supplement the Deposit Agreement and the ADR at any time in accordance with such changed laws, rules or regulations. Such amendment or supplement to the Deposit Agreement in such circumstances may become effective before a notice of such amendment or supplement is given to Holders or within any other period of time as required for compliance.

(17) Termination. Upon the resignation or removal of the Depositary pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary may, and shall at the written direction of the Company, terminate the Deposit Agreement and this ADR by mailing notice of such termination to

A-11

the Holders at least 30 days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination, which 30 days shall not act to reduce the 60 days referred to in paragraph (15) above. After the date so fixed for termination, the Depositary and its agents will perform no further acts under the Deposit Agreement and this ADR, except to receive and hold (or sell) distributions on Deposited Securities and deliver Deposited Securities being withdrawn. As soon as practicable after the expiration of six months from the date so fixed for termination, the Depositary shall sell the Deposited Securities and shall thereafter (as long as it may lawfully do so) hold in a segregated account the net proceeds of such sales, together with any other cash then held by it under the Deposit Agreement, without liability for interest, in trust for the pro rata benefit of the Holders of ADRs not theretofore surrendered. After making such sale, the Depositary shall be discharged from all obligations in respect of the Deposit Agreement and this ADR, except to account for such net proceeds and other cash. After the date so fixed for termination, the Company shall be discharged from all obligations under the Deposit Agreement except for its obligations to the Depositary and its agents.

(18) Appointment. Each Holder and each person holding an interest in ADSs, upon acceptance of any ADSs (or any interest therein) issued in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement shall be deemed for all purposes to (a) be a party to and bound by the terms of the Deposit Agreement and the applicable ADR(s), and (b) appoint the Depositary its attorney-in-fact, with full power to delegate, to act on its behalf and to take any and all actions contemplated in the Deposit Agreement and the applicable ADR(s), to adopt any and all procedures necessary to comply with applicable law and to take such action as the Depositary in its sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of the Deposit Agreement and the applicable ADR(s), the taking of such actions to be the conclusive determinant of the necessity and appropriateness thereof.

SECTION 5. Right of Participation.

5.1 Right of Participation With Respect to New Securities. Subject to the provisions of Sections 5.2 and 5.3, the Company grants to each of the holders of Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding the right of participation (the "RIGHT OF PARTICIPATION") to purchase its Pro Rata Share of New Securities which the Company may, from time to time prior to the Qualified IPO, propose to allot and issue; provided that the Right of Participation, with respect to each such proposed allotment and issuance, is exercised by holders of Series A Preferred Shares representing at least 50% of the Series A Preferred Shares in the aggregate then outstanding (collectively, the "MAJORITY SERIES A PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS", and each such shareholder, a "MAJORITY SERIES A PREFERRED SHAREHOLDER"). The Company shall offer to each of the Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders for subscription up to its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities on the same terms and at the same price at which the Company proposes to allot and issue the New Securities.

5.2 Issuance Notice. In the event the Company proposes to issue New Securities, it shall give the holders of Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding a written notice

9

(the "ISSUANCE NOTICE") of its intention, describing the type of New Securities, the price, the terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same, an offer for subscription the aggregate number of New Securities that such holders are entitled to purchase pursuant to Section 5.1 of this Agreement, a statement that such holders shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the Issuance Notice to accept the offer for subscription under the Issuance Notice (the "ISSUANCE NOTICE PERIOD), and a statement that no such holder shall be entitled to exercise the Right of Participation unless the Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders elect to exercise the Right of Participation.

10

(b) The Existing Shareholder shall give a written notice (the "TRANSFER NOTICE") to each of the holders of the Series A Preferred Shares describing fully the proposed Transfer, including the number of shares proposed to be Transferred, the proposed Transfer price, the name and address of the proposed Transferee and a statement that no such holder shall be entitled to exercise the Right of First Refusal unless the Majority Series A Shareholders elect to exercise the Right of First Refusal. The Transfer Notice shall be accompanied by a written certification by the Existing Shareholder that the proposed transferee is a bona fide purchaser and the Transfer Notice constitutes a binding commitment of the Existing Shareholder and the proposed transferee, with or without conditions, for the Transfer of that Stock subject to the Right of First Refusal of the Majority Series A Shareholders.

(c) The holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall then have the right to purchase up to all of the Stock subject to the Transfer Notice at a price per share equal to the proposed per share transfer price, by delivery of a notice of exercise of the Right of First Refusal within thirty (30) days after the date the Transfer Notice is delivered to such holders; provided that the Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders exercise such right.

6.2 Co-Sale Right.

(a) General. If the Existing Shareholder proposes to Transfer any Stock or any interest therein to any person or entity, each of the holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Existing Shareholder within thirty (30) days after the date the Transfer Notice is delivered to such holder, to participate in such sale of Stock on substantially the same terms and conditions applicable to the Existing Shareholder (the "CO-SALE RIGHT"); provided, however, that (i) the Co-Sale Right, with respect to each such Transfer, is exercised by the Majority Series A Shareholders, and (ii) the Co-Sale Right shall not apply to any Transfer of Stock to the Majority Series A Shareholders pursuant to the exercise of the Right of First Refusal under Section 6.1. Notice of exercise of the Co-Sale Right shall indicate the number of shares of Stock each holder of Series A Preferred Shares wishes to Transfer under the Co-Sale Right and include an acknowledgment that the Co-Sale Right may not be exercised by such holder unless the Majority Series A Shareholders elect to exercise the Co-Sale Right. If the Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders elect to exercise the Co-Sale Right, the holders of Series A Preferred Shares may Transfer in the aggregate up to the number of shares of Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate number of shares of the Stock proposed to be Transferred as set out in the Transfer Notice by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Stock held in the aggregate by such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders immediately before the Transfer and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Stock held, in the aggregate, by the Existing Shareholder and such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders immediately before the Transfer. If the Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders exercise their Co-Sale Right in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 6.2, the Existing Shareholder may only Transfer its shares of Stock if the proposed transferee completes the purchase of the shares which such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders seek to sell pursuant to the exercise of the Co-Sale Right.

(b) Delivery of Certificates. The Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders shall effect their participation in the Transfer under this Section 6.2 by, promptly or no later than fifteen (15) days after the exercise of such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders of the Co-

11

Sale Right, delivering to the Existing Shareholder for Transfer to the prospective purchaser one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, which represent the type and number of shares of Stock which such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders elect to Transfer; provided, however, that if the prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of Series A Preferred Shares in lieu of Ordinary Shares, such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders shall first convert the Series A Preferred Shares into Ordinary Shares and deliver Ordinary Shares as provided in this Section 6.2. The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with and contingent upon the actual Transfer of such shares to the prospective purchaser.

(c) Sales Proceeds. The stock certificate or certificates that the Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders deliver to the Existing Shareholder pursuant to Section 6.2(a) shall be transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the sale of the Stock pursuant to substantially the same terms and conditions as specified in the Transfer Notice, and the Existing Shareholder shall upon receiving the same from the prospective purchaser concurrently remit to each of such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders on a prorated basis that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholder is entitled by reason of its participation in the Transfer. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibits assignment or otherwise refuses to purchase shares or other securities from such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders, the Existing Shareholder shall not Transfer to the prospective purchaser or purchasers any Stock unless and until, simultaneously with the sale, the Existing Shareholder purchases those shares or other securities from such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders.

(d) Purchase and Sales Agreement. The terms and conditions of any sale pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be memorialized in, and governed by, a written purchase and sales agreement with customary terms and provisions for such a transaction; provided that no Majority Series A Preferred Shareholder shall be required to give any representations or warranties other than those reasonably requested relating to its title in and ownership of the shares and information relating to such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholder in connection with complying with the relevant exemptions of the Securities Act.

6.3 Sale by the Existing Shareholder. Subject to Section 6.6, if and to the extent that the Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders do not exercise its Right of First Refusal or Co-Sale Right with respect to the sale of the Stock subject to the Transfer Notice within the relevant prescribed period, the Existing Shareholder may, not later than ninety (90) days following delivery to such Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders of the Transfer Notice, conclude a bona fide Transfer of all of the Stock covered by the Transfer Notice on terms and conditions not more favorable to the transferee or transferor than those described in the Transfer Notice. Any proposed Transfer on terms and conditions more favorable than those described in the Transfer Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer of any Stock by the Existing Shareholder, shall again be subject to the Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders' Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Right and shall require compliance by the Existing Shareholder with the procedures described in this Section 6.

6.4 No Adverse Effect. The exercise or non-exercise by the Majority Series A Preferred Shareholders of the Right of First Refusal or the Co-Sale Right shall not adversely

12

affect their rights to participate in subsequent transfers of Stock by the Existing Shareholder subject to the provisions of this Section 6.

6.5 Exempt Transfers.

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Right of Refusal and the Co-Sale Right shall not apply to (i) any transfer or transfers of Stock by the Existing Shareholder to its Affiliates and (ii) the grant or sale by the Existing Shareholder of up to a certain percentage of the Ordinary Shares (the "SECONDARY ESOP PERCENTAGE") (which percentage shall be determined prior to the Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement) to the Company's employees, provided that such employee transferee shall agree to the same transfer restrictions set out in this Section 6.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Right of First Refusal or the Co-Sale Right shall not apply to the sale of any Stock to the public pursuant to a Registration Statement filed with, and declared effective by, the Commission under the Securities Act (or with respect to a Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States, with or by an equivalent agency under applicable law in such jurisdiction).

6.6 Prohibited Transfer. No sale of the Stock to a transferee under
Section 6.5 shall be effective if a purpose or effect of such transfer shall have been to circumvent the provisions in Sections 6.1 and 6.2. Each Shareholder shall remain responsible for the performance of this Agreement by each transferee of such Shareholder to whom the Stock is transferred. If any Affiliate of any Shareholder to whom the Stock is transferred pursuant to
Section 6.5 ceases to be an Affiliate of such Shareholder from whom it acquired such Stock pursuant to such provision, such Person shall re-convey such Stock to such transferring Shareholder as soon as reasonably practicable after such Person knows of its upcoming change of status immediately prior thereto. If such change of status is not known until after its occurrence, the former Affiliate shall make such transfer to such transferring Shareholder as soon as practicable after the former Affiliate receives notice thereof.

6.7 Restrictions on the Transfer by Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares. Any Series A Preferred Shares, or any classes of shares of the Company, held by the Investor are freely transferable, subject to restrictions under applicable laws, provided, however, that (i) the Investor shall give advance written notice to the Company with respect to a proposed transfer of such shares; (ii) the Investor shall not transfer such shares to any Person whose principal business is in direct competition with the principal business of the Company at the time of such transfer, and (iii) for a period of one year (1) following the date of this Agreement, the Investor (or its Affiliates) shall not transfer shares of the Company representing, on an aggregated basis, more than 50% of the Series A Preferred Shares (as determined on a fully-converted basis) to a Person other than Affiliates of the Investor without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

SECTION 7. Demand Registration.

7.1 Request for Registration on Form Other Than Form F-3. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the Company receives from the Initiating Holders at

13

any time six (6) months after the closing of the Company's initial public offering of Ordinary Shares under a Registration Statement (other than a Registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or of securities being offered to the employees of the Group Companies pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan, a Registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a Registration Statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or a Registration in which the only Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being Registered), a written request that the Company effect any Registration with respect to Registrable Securities on a form other than Form F-3 for an offering of the then outstanding Registrable Securities, the Company shall (i) within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of the proposed Registration to all other Holders, and (ii) as soon as practicable, use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the Registration of the Registrable Securities specified in the request, together with any Registrable Securities of any Holder as are specified in a written request from such Holder given within twenty (20) days after written notice from the Company. The Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any Registration pursuant to this Section 7.1 after the Company has effected three (3) Registrations pursuant to this Section 7.1 and each Registration has been declared effective. The substantive provisions of Section 7.5 shall be applicable to the Registration initiated under this Section 7.1.

7.2 Request for Registration on Form F-3. If the Initiating Holders request that the Company file a Registration Statement on Form F-3 (or any successor form to Form F-3, or any comparable form for a Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States) for a public offering, of shares of Registrable Securities, the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which, net of Selling Expenses, would not be less than US$5,000,000, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form F-3 or comparable form to Register the Registrable Securities for an offering, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause those Registrable Securities to be Registered for the offering on that form and to cause those Registrable Securities to be qualified in jurisdictions as the Holder or Holders may reasonably request. The Company shall not be required to effect more than one Registration pursuant to this Section 7.2 in any twelve (12) month period. The substantive provisions of
Section 7.5 shall be applicable to each Registration initiated under this
Section 7.2.

7.3 Right of Deferral. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7 to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to file a Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 7:

(a) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting that Registration, qualification, or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in that jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act or other applicable law in a jurisdiction other than the United States in which the Registration is being effected;

(b) if the Company, within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of the request of any Initiating Holder(s), gives notice of its bona fide intention to effect the filing of a Registration Statement with the Commission or comparable regulatory agency for a Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States (other than a Registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or of securities being offered to the employees of the

14

Group Companies pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization, a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or a registration in which the only Ordinary Shares being registered is Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered), then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than one hundred twenty
(120) days after receipt of the request of the Holders requesting Registration pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, provided that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in every twelve (12) month period and that the Company shall not Register any other shares during such twelve (12) month period. Any Registration of Registrable Securities as a result of such efforts shall be deemed to have been initiated by the Company, not by the Initiating Holders under Section 7.1, and the original request by the Initiating Holders to Register Registrable Securities shall instead be deemed a request to include the Registrable Securities specified in the request in such Registration under Section 8;

(c) within one hundred eighty (180) days immediately following the effective date of any Registration Statement pertaining to the securities of the Company (other than a Registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or of securities being offered to the employees of the Group Companies pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan, a Registration relating to a corporate reorganization, a Registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a Registration Statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or a Registration in which the only Ordinary Shares being Registered is Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being Registered); or

(d) if the Company furnishes to those Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for a Registration Statement to be filed in the near future. Then the Company's obligation to use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a Registration Statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days from the receipt of the request to file the Registration by that Holder provided that the Company shall not exercise the right contained in this Section 7.3(d) more than once in any twelve
(12) month period and provided further, that during such one hundred twenty
(120) day period the Company shall not file a Registration Statement with respect to the public offering of securities of the Company (other than a Registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or of securities being offered to the employees of the Group Companies pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan, a Registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a Registration Statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or a Registration in which the only Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being Registered).

7.4 Registration of Other Securities in Demand Registration. Any Registration Statement filed pursuant to the request of any Holder under this
Section 7 may,

15

subject to the provisions of Section 7.5, include Ordinary Shares of the Company other than Registrable Securities.

7.5 Underwriting in Demand Registration.

(a) Notice of Underwriting. If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 7, and the Company shall include that information in the written notice referred to in Section 7.1 or 7.2 of this Agreement. In such event, the right of any Holder to Registration pursuant to this Section 7 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's agreement to participate in the underwriting arrangement required by this Section 7.5, and the inclusion of that Holder's Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. The Company shall (together with all Holders proposing to distribute their securities through the underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement with the representative (the "UNDERWRITERS' REPRESENTATIVE") of the underwriter or underwriters selected for the underwriting by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities that are being proposed to be distributed through such underwriting.

(b) Inclusion of Other Holders in Demand Registration. If the Company, officers or directors of the Company holding Ordinary Shares other than Registrable Securities, or holders of securities other than Registrable Securities, request inclusion of such Ordinary Shares or other securities in the Registration, the Initiating Holders, to the extent they deem advisable and consistent with the goals of that Registration, may, in their reasonable discretion, on behalf of all Holders, offer to any or all of the Company, those officers or directors, and the holders of securities other than Registrable Securities that such Ordinary Shares or other securities be included in the underwriting and may condition that offer on the acceptance by those persons of the terms of this Section 7. If, however, the number of shares so included exceeds the number of shares of Registrable Securities included by all Holders, the Registration shall be treated as governed by Section 8 of this Agreement rather than this Section 7, and it shall not count as a Registration for purposes of this Section 7.

(c) Marketing Limitation in Demand Registration. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7 to the contrary, if the Underwriters' Representative advises the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors (including, without limitation, the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the Registration and underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders thereof in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities entitled to inclusion in that Registration held by such Holders at the time of filing the Registration Statement; provided that securities described in Section 7.5(b) shall first be excluded from such Registration, and that at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the Registrable Securities requested by the Initiating Holders to be included in such Registration and underwriting shall be so included. No Registrable Securities or other securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of this
Section 7.5(d) shall be included in

16

such Registration Statement. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company and the Underwriters' Representative may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest one hundred (100) shares.

(d) Right of Withdrawal in Demand Registration. If any Holder of Registrable Securities, or a holder of other securities entitled (upon request) to be included in such Registration, disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the Underwriter's Representative, and the Initiating Holders delivered at least seven (7) Business Days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. The securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from the Registration Statement, and such securities shall not be transferred in a public distribution prior to one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of such Registration, or such other period of time as the underwriters may require.

7.6 Other Securities Laws in Demand Registration. In the event of any Registration pursuant to this Section 7, the Company shall exercise its commercially reasonable endeavors to Register and qualify the securities covered by the Registration Statement under the securities laws of any other jurisdictions in the United States as shall be reasonably appropriate for the distribution of the securities; provided, however, that: (a) the Company shall not be required to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such state or jurisdiction; and (b) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event any jurisdiction in which the securities shall be qualified imposes a non-waivable requirement that expenses incurred in connection with the qualification of the securities be borne by selling shareholders, the expenses shall be payable pro rata by the selling shareholders.

7.7 Other Registration Rights. The Company and the Existing Shareholder hereby jointly and severally (i) represent and warrant to the Series A Preferred Shareholders that the Company has not granted any rights to any shareholder or other person with respect to the Registration of securities of the Company and (ii) covenant that the Company will not, and the Existing Shareholder will not permit the Company to, grant any such rights to any Person without the prior written consent of Holders holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities.

SECTION 8. Piggyback Registration.

8.1 Notice of Piggyback Registration and Inclusion of Registrable Securities. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, if the Company decides to Register any of its Ordinary Shares (either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders exercising their respective demand registration rights (other than Holders exercising their demand rights pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement)) (other than a Registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock plan, a Registration relating to a corporate reorganization or other transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act, a Registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or a Registration in which the only Ordinary Shares being registered is Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being Registered), the Company shall: (a) promptly give each Holder written notice thereof (which shall include a list of the jurisdictions in which the Company intends to attempt to

17

qualify those securities under the applicable Blue Sky or other securities laws); and (b) include in that Registration (and any related qualification under Blue Sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request delivered to the Company by any Holder within twenty (20) days after delivery of the written notice from the Company. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any Registration initiated by it under this Section 8 prior to the effectiveness of such Registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such Registration.

8.2 Underwriting in Piggyback Registration.

(a) Notice of Underwriting in Piggyback Registration. If the Registration of which the Company gives notice is for a Registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 8.1. In such event, the right of any Holder to Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in such underwriting to the extent provided in this
Section 8. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through the underwriting shall (together with the Company and any other holders distributing their securities through the underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement with the Underwriter's Representative for such offering. The Holders shall have no right to participate in the selection of the underwriters for an offering pursuant to this Section 8.

(b) Marketing Limitation in Piggyback Registration. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8 to the contrary, if the Underwriter's Representative advises the Holders seeking Registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 8 in writing that marketing factors (including, without limitation, the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the Underwriters' Representative (subject to the allocation priority set forth in Section 8.2(c)) may:

(i) in the case of the Company's initial public offering pursuant to a Registration Statement, exclude some or all Registrable Securities from the Registration and underwriting; and

(ii) in the case of any Registered public offering subsequent to the initial public offering, limit the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in the Registration and underwriting, to not less than thirty-five percent (35%) of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in the Registration.

(c) Allocation of Shares in Piggyback Registration. If the Underwriter's Representative limits the number of shares to be included in a Registration pursuant to Section 8.2(b), the number of shares to be included in the Registration shall be allocated among all other Holders and other holders of securities (other than Registrable Securities) requesting and legally entitled to include securities in that Registration, in the following order of priority:

(i) first, to the Company, to the extent it is offering shares for its own account; and

18

(ii) next, to Holders requesting inclusion of Registrable Securities in the offering, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of securities (including Registrable Securities), which such Holders would otherwise be entitled to include in the Registration; and

(iii) next, to the other holders requesting inclusion of such securities (other than Registrable Securities) in the offering, in proportion, as nearly as practicable to the respective amounts of securities which such other holders would otherwise be entitled to include in the Registration.

For any Registration subsequent to an initial public offering, the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the Registration and underwriting under Section 8.2(b)(ii) shall not be reduced to less than thirty-five percent (35%) of the aggregate Registrable Securities requested to be included in the Registration without the prior consent of at least a majority of the Holders who have requested their Registrable Securities be included in the Registration and underwriting. No Registrable Securities or other securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of this Section 8.2(c) shall be included in the Registration Statement. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company and the Underwriters' Representative may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest 100 shares.

(d) Withdrawal in Piggyback Registration. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any underwriting, the Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the Underwriter's Representative delivered at least seven days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from the underwriting shall be withdrawn from the Registration.

SECTION 9. Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses reasonably incurred in connection with up to three (3) Registrations pursuant to Section 7.1 and unlimited Registrations pursuant to Sections 8.2 and 9 shall be borne by the Company. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any other Registration, qualification or compliance shall be apportioned among the Holders, and other holders, including the Company, of the securities so Registered on the basis of the number of shares Registered. Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any Registration proceeding commenced pursuant to Section 7 if the Registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be Registered (which Holders shall bear those expenses), unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to one (1) corresponding Registration pursuant to Section 7; provided, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, such Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company not known to such Holders at the time of their request for such Registration, and have withdrawn their request for Registration with reasonable promptness after learning of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any such expenses and such Registration shall not constitute the use of a Registration under Section 7. All Selling Expenses shall be borne by the holders of the securities Registered pro rata on the basis of the number of shares Registered.

19

SECTION 10. Termination of Registration Rights. The rights of any Holder to cause the Company to Register securities granted under Sections 7 and 8 and to receive notices pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of: (a) the date five (5) years a Qualified IPO; (b) with respect to such Holder, after a Qualified IPO or the Company's initial public offering of securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, if following such Qualified IPO or initial public offering, such Holder, together with its Affiliates, holds less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, (c) with respect to such Holder, when such Holder is eligible to sell all of the Registrable Securities held by it (together with any Affiliate of such Holder with whom such Holder must aggregate its sales under Rule 144) either (i) under Rule 144 within any ninety (90) day period without volume limitations or (ii) under Rule 144(k), or (d) with respect to such Holder's right with respect to Registration of Registrable Securities in any jurisdiction other than the United States, when that Holder is eligible to sell all of its Registrable Securities under a provision of that jurisdiction's securities laws comparable to Rule 144 or 144(k).

In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder shall, if Registrable Securities held by that Holder are included in the securities as to which Registration, qualification or, compliance is being effected pursuant to this Agreement, indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers, each legal counsel and independent accountant of the Company, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by the Registration Statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other Holder, each of its officers, directors, and constituent partners, and each person controlling such other Holder, against all Damages arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus, offering

22

circular, or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Holder of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, applicable Blue Sky laws, or other applicable laws in the jurisdiction other than the United States in which the Registration occurred, applicable to such Holder and relating to action or inaction required of such Holder in connection with any Registration, qualification, or compliance, and shall reimburse the Company, such other Holders, directors, officers, partners, persons, law firms and accounting firms, underwriters or control persons for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any claim, loss, damage, liability, or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that the untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) or violation is made in that Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular, or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use in connection with the offering of securities of the Company, provided, however, that the indemnity contained in this Section 13.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Damages if settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and provided, further, that such Holder's liability under this Section 13.2 shall not exceed the Holder's proceeds (less underwriting discounts and selling commissions) from the offering of securities made in connection with such Registration, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder.

The obligations of the Holders under this Section 13.2 shall be several, and not joint and several, among the Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration.

13.3 Condition to Indemnity. The foregoing indemnity agreements of the Company and the Holders are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any violation made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the Commission at the time the Registration Statement in question becomes effective or the amended prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) (the "FINAL PROSPECTUS"), such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any person if a copy of the Final Prospectus was furnished to the indemnified party and was not furnished to the person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action is required by the Securities Act.

13.4 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 13 of notice of the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 13, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof and generally summarize the action. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and to assume the defense of that claim; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall be entitled to select counsel for the defense of the claim with the approval of any parties entitled to indemnification, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided further, however, that if either party reasonably determines that there may be a conflict between the position of the Company and the Holders in conducting the defense of the action, suit, or proceeding by reason of recognized claims for indemnity under this Section 13, then counsel for such party shall be entitled to conduct the defense to the extent reasonably determined by counsel to be necessary to protect the interests of

23

such party. The failure to notify an indemnifying party promptly of the commencement of any action, if prejudicial to the ability of the indemnifying party to defend the action, shall relieve the indemnifying party, to the extent so prejudiced, of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 13, but the omission to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the party of any liability that the party may otherwise have to any indemnified party otherwise under this Section 13.

13.5 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 13 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any Damages, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of those Damages in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in Damages as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying or the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent the statement or omission. No Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds received from the sale of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such Registration Statement, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder; and no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

13.6 Conflicts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control; provided however, that the provision in any such underwriting agreement pertaining to indemnification and contribution will be
(i) substantially similar to those contained herein, or (ii) typical of such provisions found in underwriting agreements of companies similarly situated to the Company.

13.7 Survival of Obligations. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 13 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement under this Agreement or otherwise. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which admits fault on behalf of the indemnified party or which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability with respect to such claim or litigation.

SECTION 14. Lock-Up. Each Holder hereby agrees that, if requested by the Company or the Underwriter's Representative (if any) in connection with the Company's initial public offering, such Holder shall not sell, contract to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, pledge, charge or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable

24

Securities or other securities of the Company without the prior written consent of the Company or the Underwriter's Representative, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) following the effective date of a Registration Statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act (or other applicable law in a jurisdiction other than the United States in which a Registration occurred) as may be requested by the Underwriter's Representative or pursuant to any regulations or rules of the stock exchange on which shares of the Company are listed. The obligations of Holders under this Section 14 shall be conditioned upon similar agreements being in effect with each other shareholder who is an officer, director, or five percent (5%) shareholder of the Company. The Company shall not release any of the shareholders who is an officer, director, or five percent (5%) shareholder of the Company from the lock-up without first releasing the Holders.

SECTION 15. No Action Letter. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, if: (a) the Company obtains from the Commission (or comparable regulatory agency in case of Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States) a "no-action" letter in which the Commission or such comparable regulatory agency has indicated that it will take no action if, without Registration under the Securities Act or comparable law, any Holder disposes of Registrable Securities covered by any request for Registration made under
Section 7 of this Agreement in the specific manner in which the Holder proposes to dispose of Registrable Securities included in that request (such as including, without limitation, inclusion of the Registrable Securities in an underwriting initiated by either the Company or the Holders) and that the Registrable Securities may be sold to the public without Registration in accordance with an established procedure or Rule-based "safe harbor" without unreasonable legal risk or uncertainty, then the Registrable Securities included in the request shall not be eligible for Registration under this Agreement. Any Registrable Securities not so disposed of shall be eligible for Registration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement with respect to other proposed dispositions to which this Section 15 does not apply. The Registration rights of the Holders of Registrable Securities set forth in this Agreement are conditioned upon the conversion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which Registration is sought into Ordinary Shares prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement.

SECTION 16. Reports Under the Exchange Act. With a view to making available to Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without Registration or pursuant to a Registration on Form F-3, the Company agrees to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the public so long as the Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

(b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;

25

(c) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, promptly upon written request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Company), the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to reporting requirements thereunder), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time after it so qualifies); (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and any other reports and documents filed by the Company; and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the Commission which permits the selling of any such securities without Registration or pursuant to that form; and

(d) with respect to a Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States, take actions similar to those set forth in paragraphs (a), (b),
(c) and (d) of this Section 16 with a view to making available to Holders the benefits of the corresponding provision or provisions of that jurisdiction's securities laws.

(e) at the request of a Holder, use its best efforts to enable such Holder to sell the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted under Rule 144, including without limitation promptly issuing appropriate instructions to the Company's share transfer agent to remove legends from such Holder's share certificates, causing the Company's counsel to issue legal opinions to support such instructions, and if applicable promptly issuing appropriate instructions to the Company's share registrar and depository agent to convert such Holder's shares into depository receipts or similar instruments to be deposited into such Holder's brokerage account(s). The Company acknowledges that time is of the essence with respect to its obligations under this Section 16(e), and that any unreasonable delay will cause the Holders irreparable harm and constitutes a material breach of its obligations hereunder.

SECTION 17. Transfer of Rights. The rights to cause the Company to Register Registrable Securities under this Agreement may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to (i) another Holder of Registrable Securities who already possesses registration rights granted under this Agreement, (ii) a transferee or assignee acquiring five percent (5%) or more of the Ordinary Shares Equivalent, (iii) an affiliated limited partnership, a limited partner, or general partner or other Affiliates of a Holder, provided that (x) the Company is, within reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned, (y) such assignment shall be effective only if immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and (z) such Holder shall procure that the transferee or assignee of such Holder's Registrable Securities execute a deed of adherence to this Agreement.

SECTION 18. Legend; Stop Transfer Instructions.

18.1 Legend. Each certificate representing shares or securities of the Company now or hereafter owned by the Existing Shareholder, the Investor and any transferee of such shares and securities shall be endorsed with the following legend:

26

"THE SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE HOLDER HEREOF, THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN OTHER SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY."

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED UPON THEIR CONVERSION (IF APPLICABLE) HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO U.S. PERSONS BY OR ON BEHALF OF ANY U.S. PERSON, UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE. IN ORDER TO TRANSFER OR EXERCISE ANY INTEREST IN THESE SECURITIES, THE BENEFICIAL HOLDER MUST FURNISH TO THE COMPANY EITHER (A) A WRITTEN CERTIFICATION THAT IT IS NOT A U.S. PERSON AND THE PREFERRED SHARES ARE NOT BEING CONVERTED ON BEHALF OF A U.S. PERSON OR (B) A WRITTEN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE EFFECT THAT THE SECURITIES DELIVERED UPON CONVERSION OF THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR THAT THE DELIVERY OF SUCH SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT. EACH BENEFICIAL HOLDER BY ACCEPTING AN INTEREST IN THESE SECURITIES AGREES THAT ANY HEDGING TRANSACTION INVOLVING SUCH SECURITIES OR THE SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED UPON CONVERSION OF SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT. TERMS IN THIS LEGEND HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM BY REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT."

18.2 Stop Transfer Instructions. The Parties hereto agree that the Company may instruct its transfer agent to impose transfer restrictions on the shares represented by certificates bearing the legend referred to in Section 18.1 to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, and the Company agrees promptly to do so. The legend shall be removed upon termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 19. Covenants.

Unless otherwise indicated below, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the parties have entered into the Agreements; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to and in accordance with Section 10.06 of the Purchase Agreement and Section 21.6 of the Shareholders Agreement, the parties wish to amend the Agreements as set forth in this Amendment;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the rights and obligations contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

Section 1. Employee Stock Option Plan. The Existing Parties agree that the Primary ESOP Percentage (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) shall be up to five percent (5%) of all Ordinary Shares Equivalent (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) immediately after the Closing, excluding the Warrant (namely, up to 3,394,054 Ordinary Shares), up to four percent (4%) of which shall be in the form of restricted shares (namely, up to 2,715,243 Ordinary Shares) and up to one percent (1%) of which shall be in the form of stock options (namely, up to 678,811 Ordinary Shares). The Existing Parties agree that such employee stock option plan, whether in the form of restricted shares or stock options, shall be established in a form to the reasonable satisfaction of the Investor. The Existing Parties further agree that the Secondary ESOP Percentage (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) shall be zero.

Section 2. Warrant. The Company agrees to grant a warrant to TB Management at Closing substantially in the form of Annex A hereto (the "Warrant").

Section 3. Exhibit A to the Purchase Agreement. The following shall be added to Exhibit A of the Purchase Agreement:


"The Warrant, dated as of the Closing Date, granted by the Company at Closing substantially in the form of Annex A to the Amendment Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2006, among the parties hereto."

Section 4. Registration Rights of the Shareholders Agreement.

(a) TB Management agrees to adhere to and be bound by Sections 7 through 18, 21.2, 21.6, 21.8 and 21.9 of the Shareholders Agreement thereunder as if it were a "Holder" or "Investor" (as the case may be) to the Shareholders Agreement.

(b) The Existing Parties agree that TB Management shall be entitled to the benefit of all rights given in Sections 7 through 18, 21.2, 21.6, 21.8 and 21.9 of the Shareholders Agreement thereunder as if TB Management were a "Holder" or "Investor" (as the case may be) to the Shareholders Agreement.

(c) The Existing Parties agree that the definition of "Registrable Securities" in the Shareholders Agreement shall be replaced in its entirety with the following:

"REGISTRABLE SECURITIES" means (a) the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any of the Series A Preferred Shares (b) the Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant, and (c) Ordinary Shares issued or issuable pursuant to stock splits, stock dividends and similar distributions to the Investor, or in exchange for or in replacement of the Ordinary Shares referred to clause (a) or (b) above, excluding in all cases, however, any Registrable Securities sold by a Person in a transaction in which its rights under Sections 7 or 8 hereof are not assigned or any shares for which registration rights have terminated pursuant to Section 10."

Section 5. No Assignment; Binding Effect. Neither this Amendment nor any right, interest or obligation hereunder may be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto and any attempt to do so shall be void, except that the Investor may assign any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate, provided that any such Affiliate agrees in writing to be bound by all of the terms, conditions and provisions contained herein, but no such assignment shall relieve the Investor of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Amendment is binding upon, inures to the benefit of and is enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 6. No Third Party Beneficiary. The terms and provisions of this Amendment are intended solely for the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors or permitted assigns, and it is not the intention of the parties to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other Person.

Section 7. Entire Agreement. This Amendment constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as amended by this Amendment, the Agreements shall continue in full force and effect.

Section 8. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Amendment is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Amendment shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Amendment is

2

not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Amendment so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Amendment are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 9. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 10. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to a contract executed and performed in such jurisdiction, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.

Section 11. Dispute Resolution. Any dispute arising from or in connection with this Amendment shall be resolved in accordance with Section 21.2 of the Shareholders Agreement.

3

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of each party hereto as of the date first above written.

Section 1.3 hereof, as may be adjusted in accordance with the terms hereof, exercisable at any time and from time to time during the Exercise Period, as defined in Section 1.6 hereof, all subject to the terms, conditions and adjustments herein set forth. See Section 8 for definitions of certain terms used herein.


1. WARRANT TERMS GENERALLY.

1.1 NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES.

Subject to Section 1.6 below, this Warrant shall enable the Warrantholder to purchase six hundred seventy-eight thousand eight hundred and eleven (678,811) Ordinary Shares, as such number may be adjusted pursuant to the terms hereof.

1.2 CASH EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

Subject to Section 1.6, this Warrant may be exercised by the Warrantholder by (i) the surrender of this Warrant to the Company, with a duly executed Exercise Form specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased, during normal business hours on any Business Day during the Exercise Period and (ii) the delivery of payment to the Company, for the account of the Company, (A) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account specified by the Company, of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form in United States Dollars, (B) by forgiveness or the offsetting of an amount of accounts receivable from the Company to the Warrantholder equal to the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form in United States Dollars or (C) by any combination of the foregoing. Subject to Section 1.6, the Company agrees that such Warrant Shares shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for the Warrant Shares as aforesaid. Subject to Section 1.6, a stock certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form shall be delivered to the Warrantholder as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 10 days thereafter. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the stock certificate or certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant evidencing the rights to purchase the remaining Warrant Shares, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. No adjustments shall be made on Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant for any cash dividends paid or payable to holders of record of Ordinary Shares prior to the date as of which the Warrantholder shall be deemed to be the record holder of such Warrant Shares.

1.3 EXERCISE PRICE.

The Exercise Price shall be $2.1 per Warrant Share, as such price may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 6 hereof.

1.4 PAYMENT OF TAXES. The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any stock transfer or other issuance tax in respect thereto.

1.5 INFORMATION. Upon receipt of a written request from a Warrantholder, the Company agrees to deliver promptly to such Warrantholder a copy of its current financial statements and to provide such other information concerning the Company as such Warrantholder may reasonably request in order to assist the Warrantholder in evaluating the merits and risks of exercising the Warrant and to make an informed investment decision in connection with such exercise.

-2-

1.6 EXERCISE PERIOD. This Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to the closing of the Company's first firm commitment, underwritten public offering of Ordinary Shares or shares representing Ordinary Shares in connection with which Ordinary Shares or shares representing Ordinary Shares are listed and become publicly traded on an internationally recognized securities exchange or the NASDAQ National Market (such period, the "Exercise Period").

2. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS.

2.1 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS.

(a) This Warrant and the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant are not assignable or transferrable except this Warrant (and all rights hereunder) and the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant may be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, to an Affiliate of the Warrantholder, which shall thereafter be deemed to be the Warrantholder for all purposes herein, provided, however, the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant may not be transferred or assigned in whole or in part without compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws by the transferor and transferee.

(b) The Warrantholder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Warrantholder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Warrantholder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a violation of the Securities Act or any state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the Warrant Shares so purchased are being acquired solely for the Warrantholder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale. The Warrantholder represents and warrants to the Company that the Warrantholder is an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act. The Warrantholder understands that the Warrant and any Warrant Shares acquired upon exercise of this Warrant are being offered and sold to the Warrantholder in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Warrantholder's compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Warrantholder set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Warrantholder to initially acquire the Warrant Shares.

2.2 RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. This Warrant shall (and each Warrant issued in substitution for this Warrant issued pursuant to Section 4 shall) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

"THIS WARRANT AND ANY SHARES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE

-3-

FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS, THE WARRANT AND ANY SHARES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."

Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 2, each stock certificate for Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant and each stock certificate issued upon the direct or indirect transfer of any such Warrant Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

"THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS, THE SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrantholder may require the Company to issue a stock certificate for Warrant Shares without a legend if (i) such Warrant Shares, as the case may be, have been registered for resale under the Securities Act or sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor rule thereto) or (ii) the Warrantholder has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required with respect to such Warrant Shares. If either condition in the foregoing sentence has been satisfied, the Company shall, without expense (except for the payment of any applicable transfer tax) and as expeditiously as possible, issue a new stock certificate not bearing such legend.

2.3 REGISTRATION. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to constitute "Registrable Securities" defined in the Shareholders Agreement, as amended by the Amendment Agreement, dated as of the same date hereof (the "Shareholders Agreement"), among Inspiration Partners Limited, the Company, Yingli Power Holding Company Ltd., Mr. Liansheng Miao and TB Management Ltd. The Warrantholder shall be entitled to all registration rights contained in the Shareholders Agreement in respect of the Warrant Shares.

2.4 SPLIT-UP, COMBINATION AND EXCHANGE OF WARRANTS. This Warrant may be split up, combined or exchanged for another Warrant or Warrants containing the same terms to purchase a like aggregate number of Warrant Shares. If the Warrantholder desires to split up, combine or exchange this Warrant, he or it shall make such request in writing delivered to the Company and shall surrender to the Company this Warrant and any other Warrants to

-4-

be so split-up, combined or exchanged. Upon any such surrender for a split-up, combination or exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver to the person entitled thereto a Warrant or Warrants, as the case may be, as so requested. The Company shall not be required to effect any split-up, combination or exchange which will result in the issuance of a Warrant entitling the Warrantholder to purchase upon exercise a fraction of an Ordinary Share or a fractional Warrant. The Company may require such Warrantholder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any split-up, combination or exchange of Warrants.

3. RESERVATION OF SHARES

The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares which are issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof, other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue. The Company further covenants and agrees that, during the Exercise Period, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved, and keep available free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of Ordinary Shares to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.

4. EXCHANGE, LOSS OR DESTRUCTION OF WARRANT.

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of such bond or indemnification as the Company may reasonably require, and, in the case of such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor. The term "Warrant" as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Warrants issued in substitution or exchange for this Warrant.

5. OWNERSHIP OF WARRANT.

The Company may deem and treat the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

6. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS.

6.1 The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

(a) Share Dividends, Share Splits, or Share Subdivisions. If at any time prior to the exercise of this Warrant in full (i) the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of any share dividend payable in Ordinary Shares or the Company's assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings) or (ii) the number of Ordinary Shares shall have been increased by a subdivision or split-up of Ordinary Shares, then, on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive such dividend (without payment of additional consideration for such dividend), or immediately after the effective date of subdivision or split-up, as the case may be, the number of Ordinary Shares to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be increased so that the Warrantholder will be entitled to receive the number of Ordinary Shares that

-5-

such Warrantholder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph (f).

(b) Combination of Stock. If at any time prior to the exercise of this Warrant in full the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding shall have been decreased by a combination of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, then, immediately after the effective date of such combination, the number of Ordinary Shares to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be decreased so that the Warrantholder thereafter will be entitled to receive the number of Ordinary Shares that such Warrantholder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph (f).

(c) Preservation of Purchase Rights in Certain Transactions. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding Ordinary Shares (other than a subdivision or combination of the outstanding Ordinary Shares and other than a change in the par value of the Ordinary Shares) or in case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than merger with a subsidiary in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding Ordinary Shares of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) or in the case of any sale, lease, transfer or conveyance to another corporation of the property and assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Company shall, as a condition precedent to such transaction cause such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, to execute with the Warrantholder an agreement granting the Warrantholder the right thereafter, upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action, to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which he would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action. In the event that in connection with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, additional Ordinary Shares shall be issued in exchange, conversion, substitution or payment, in whole or in part, for, or of, a security of Company other than Ordinary Shares, any such issue shall be treated as an issue of Ordinary Shares covered by the provisions of Article 6. The provisions of this Section 6.1 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

(d) Fractional Shares. No fractional Ordinary Shares or scrip shall be issued to any Warrantholder in connection with the exercise of this Warrant. Instead of any fractional Ordinary Shares that would otherwise be issuable to such Warrantholder, the Company will pay to such Warrantholder a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to that fractional interest of the fair market value of one Ordinary Share as of the date of exercise as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.

(e) Carryover. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, no adjustment shall be made to the number of Ordinary Shares to be delivered to the Warrantholder (or to the Exercise Price) if such adjustment represents less than 1% of the number of shares to be so delivered, but any lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together

-6-

with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount to 1% or more of the number of shares to be so delivered.

(f) Exercise Price Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided, the Exercise Price payable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately thereafter.

(g) No Duplicate Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, in no event will an adjustment be made under the provisions of this Section 6 to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price for any event if an adjustment having substantially the same effect to the Warrantholder as any adjustment that otherwise would be made under the provisions of this Section 6 is made by the Company for any such event to the number of Ordinary Shares (or other securities) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

6.2 NO ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS. Except as provided in Section 6.1, no adjustment in respect of any dividends shall be made during the term of the Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant.

6.3 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly mail by first class, postage prepaid, to the Warrantholder, notice of such adjustment or adjustments and a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company setting forth the number of Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made.

7. NOTICES OF CORPORATE ACTION.

In the event of:

(a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or

(b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any Change of Control or any redemption or conversion of outstanding Ordinary Shares, or

(c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company,

the Company will mail to the Warrantholder a notice specifying (i) the date or expected date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right and the amount and character of any such dividend, distribution or right, (ii) the date or

-7-

expected date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, Change of Control, redemption or conversion of Ordinary Shares, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Ordinary Shares (or other securities) shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares (or other securities) for the securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, Change of Control, redemption or conversion of Ordinary Shares, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up and (iii) that in the event of a Change of Control, the Warrants are exercisable immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control. Such notice shall be mailed at least 20 days prior to the date therein specified, in the case of any date referred to in the foregoing subdivision (i), and at least 20 days prior to the date therein specified, in the case of the date referred to in the foregoing subdivision (ii).

       (a)  to act as agents of the Trustee under this Trust Deed and
            the Bonds on the terms of the Agency Agreement (with
            consequential amendments as necessary and except that the
            Trustee's liability for the indemnification, remuneration
            and all other expenses of the Agents will be limited to
            the amounts for the time being held by the Trustee in
            respect of the Bonds on the terms of this Trust Deed and
            available for the purpose) and thereafter to hold all
            Certificates and all moneys, documents and records held
            by them in respect of Bonds to the order of the Trustee;
            and/or

       (b)  to deliver all Certificates and all moneys, documents and
            records held by them in respect of the Bonds to the
            Trustee or as the Trustee directs in such notice,
            provided that this Clause 2.4.1(b) shall not apply to any
            documents or records which the relevant Agent is obliged
            not to release by any laws or regulations to which it is
            subject; and

2.4.2  by notice in writing to the Company require it to make all
       subsequent payments in respect of the Bonds to or to the order
       of the Trustee and not to the Principal Agent.

3 FORM OF THE BONDS AND CERTIFICATES; ISSUE OF THE BONDS

3.1 CERTIFICATES: The Bonds will be represented by the relevant definitive Certificates, issued to each Bondholder, and will be substantially in the form set out in Schedule 1 (in the case of the Tranche A Bonds) and Schedule 2 (in the case of the Tranche B Bonds) and endorsed with the respective Conditions.

3.2 SIGNATURE: The definitive Certificates shall be signed manually or in facsimile by one Director or Authorised Officer of the Company duly authorised for the purpose or manually or in facsimile by any duly authorised attorney of the Company and authenticated manually or in facsimile by or on behalf of the Registrar. Bonds represented by Certificates so executed and authenticated will be binding and valid obligations of the Company.

3.3 REDEMPTION: Upon redemption of the Bonds for any reason, a notation will be made by the Registrar in the register reflecting such event (or, in the case of any definitive Certificates that are outstanding, such Certificates shall be surrendered to the Registrar).

5

3.4 ENTITLEMENT TO TREAT HOLDER AS OWNER: A Bondholder will (save as otherwise required by law) be treated as the absolute owner of a Bond registered in its name for all purposes (whether or not it is overdue and regardless of any notice of ownership, trust or any interest in it or any writing on or the theft or loss of the Certificate issued in respect of it) and no person will be liable for so treating the holder.

4 STAMP DUTIES AND TAXES

4.1 STAMP DUTIES: The Company will pay any stamp, issue, registration, documentary or other similar taxes and duties, including interest and penalties, payable in respect of the creation, issue and offering of the Bonds, the execution or delivery of this Trust Deed and the deposit of Certificates, the conversion of Tranche B Bonds into Shares, and the issue of Shares following such conversion. The Company will also indemnify the Trustee and the Bondholders from and against all stamp, issue, registration, documentary or other like taxes paid by any of them in any jurisdiction in connection with any action taken by or on behalf of the Trustee or, as the case may be, (where entitled under Condition 18 to do so) the Bondholders to enforce the obligations of the Company under this Trust Deed or the Bonds.

4.2 CHANGE OF TAXING JURISDICTION: If the Company is or becomes subject generally to the taxing jurisdiction of any territory or any authority of or in that territory having power to tax other than or in addition to the Cayman Islands or any such authority of or in such territory imposes taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature with respect to this Trust Deed or the Bonds then the Company will (upon request by the Trustee) give to the Trustee an undertaking satisfactory to the Trustee in terms and manner corresponding to the terms of Condition 11, with the substitution for, or (as the case may require) the addition to, the references in that Condition to the Cayman Islands of references to that other or additional territory or authority to whose taxing jurisdiction the Company is or has become so subject or which has imposed such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges. In such event this Trust Deed and the Bonds will be read accordingly.

5 FURTHER ISSUES

5.1 LIBERTY TO CREATE: The Company may from time to time with the consent of the Bondholders create and issue further bonds, notes or debentures (the "FURTHER BONDS") (whether in bearer or registered form) either having the same terms and conditions as the Bonds in all respects (save for the date of issue) and so that the same shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Bonds, or (in any case) upon such terms as to interest, subordination (if any), conversion, premium, redemption and otherwise as the Company may at the time of issue thereof determine.

5.2 MEANS OF CONSTITUTION: Any further bonds, notes or debentures created and issued pursuant to the provisions of Clause 5.1 above so as to form a single

6

series with the Bonds shall be constituted by a deed supplemental to this Trust Deed and any other further bonds, notes or debentures of any series created and issued pursuant to the provisions of Clause 5.1 above may (provided that such bonds, notes or debentures rank for payment to the same extent as the Bonds), with the consent of the Trustee, be so constituted. The Company shall prior to the issue of any Further Bonds to be so constituted execute and deliver to the Trustee a deed supplemental to this Trust Deed (if applicable duly stamped or denoted) and containing a covenant by the Company in the form mutatis mutandis of Clause 2 of this Trust Deed in relation to the principal and interest in respect of such Further Bonds and such other provisions (corresponding to any of the provisions contained in this Trust Deed) as the Trustee shall require.

5.3 NOTE OF SUPPLEMENTAL DEEDS: A memorandum of every such supplemental deed shall be endorsed by the Trustee on this Trust Deed and by the Company on the duplicate(s) of this Trust Deed.

5.4 NOTICE OF FURTHER ISSUES: Whenever it is proposed to create and issue any Further Bonds, the Company shall give to the Trustee not less than seven days' notice in writing of its intention to do so, stating the amount of Further Bonds proposed to be created or issued.

5.5 SEPARATE SERIES: Any Further Bonds not forming a single series with the Bonds shall form a separate series and accordingly, unless for any purpose the Trustee in its absolute discretion shall otherwise determine, the provisions of Clause 5.2 and of Clauses 4 and 6 to 19 (inclusive) (other than Clauses 16.1, 16.2 and 16.5) and Schedule 3 shall apply mutatis mutandis separately and independently to the Bonds of each series and in such Clauses and Schedule the expressions "BONDS" and "BONDHOLDERS" shall be construed accordingly.

6 COVENANTS RELATING TO THE SHARE CONVERSION

The Company hereby undertakes to, and covenants with, the Trustee that the Company will, unless otherwise required by applicable laws and regulations, keep available, free from pre-emptive or other rights, out of its authorised but unissued share capital such number of Shares as would be required to be issued to Bondholders on conversion of all the Tranche B Bonds from time to time remaining outstanding and to satisfy in full all other rights of conversion into or exchange or subscription for Shares and shall ensure that (i) the Company will register the Notes Trustee or in any other case) such other person as advised by the Trustee as the holder of that number of Shares issuable upon conversion and (ii) all Shares so delivered upon conversion of Tranche B Bonds will be duly and validly issued as fully-paid and non-assessable and shall rank pari passu with and will be fully fungible with the Shares then outstanding.

7.5 NO INDEPENDENT POWER. Bondholders shall not have any independent power to enforce, or have recourse to, any of the CB Security Documents or to exercise any rights or powers arising under the CB Security Documents except through the Trustee unless the Trustee, having been obligated to do so and indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction, fails to do so within a reasonable time and such failure is continuing.

7.6 NO RESPONSIBILITY TO PERFECT SECURITY. The Trustee shall not be liable for any failure, omission or defect (save arising from its own gross negligence, fraud or wilful misconduct) in perfecting or protecting its rights under the CB Security Documents or the priority of such security, including, without limitation, failure to:

7.7 ENFORCEMENT OF THE SECURITY

7.7.1 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the Trustee shall be entitled to do any of the acts and things listed in Schedule 4 (Trustee's Powers in Relation to the Security), including but not limited to, taking any steps necessary or required to enforce or collect or require the enforcement or collection of any of the security under the CB Security Documents (including the crystallisation of any floating charge forming part of such security).

(v) without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, to exercise all or any of the powers or rights which but for the creation of any security would have been powers or rights of the Company in relation to the CB Security Documents in such manner as it may consider expedient.

7.8 DISCHARGE. Upon any sale, calling in, collection, conversion or enforcement as provided in Clause 7.7 (Enforcement of the Security) and upon any other dealing or transaction under the provisions contained in this Trust Deed, the receipt of the Trustee for the purchase money of the assets sold and for any other moneys paid to it shall effectually discharge the purchaser or other person paying the same and such purchaser or other person shall not be responsible for the application of such moneys.

7.9 FURTHER ASSURANCE. The Company shall at its own cost and expense execute and do all such assurances, acts and things as the Trustee may reasonably require (including, without limitation, the giving of notices of charge or assignment and the effecting of filings or registrations in any jurisdiction) for perfecting or protecting any security and from time to time and at any time after any security or any part thereof has become enforceable shall execute and do all such assurances, acts and things as the Trustee may reasonably require for facilitating the realisation of, or enforcement of rights in respect of, all or any of the security under the CB Security Documents. For the purposes of this Clause 7.9, a certificate in writing signed by the Trustee to the effect that any particular assurance or thing required by it is reasonably required shall be conclusive evidence of the fact.

7.10 LIABILITY OF THE TRUSTEE. The Trustee shall not by reason of taking possession of all or any of the security or any other reason whatsoever and whether as mortgagee in possession or on any other basis whatsoever be liable to account for anything except actual receipts or be liable for any loss or damage arising from realisation of, or enforcement of rights in respect of any security or any other property, assets, rights or undertakings of whatsoever nature whether or not owned by the Company or any other person or in which the Company or such other person has an interest, from any act, default or omission in relation to the any security or any other property, assets, rights or undertakings of whatsoever nature whether or not owned by the Company or any other person or in which the Company or such other person has an interest, or from any

10

exercise or non-exercise by it of any power, authority or discretion conferred upon it in relation to all or any security or any other property, assets, rights or undertakings of whatsoever nature whether or not owned by the Company or any other person or in which the Company or such other person has an interest, by or pursuant to this Trust Deed.

7.11 POWERS ADDITIONAL TO LPA 1925. The powers conferred by this Trust Deed on the Trustee shall be in addition to and not in substitution for the powers conferred on mortgagees or receivers under the Law of Property Act 1925 and the Insolvency Act 1986 and where there is any ambiguity or conflict between the powers contained in such Act and those conferred by this Trust Deed the terms of this Trust Deed shall prevail.

7.12 DEALINGS WITH THE TRUSTEE. No person dealing with the Trustee shall be concerned to enquire whether any event has happened upon which any of the powers, authorities and discretions conferred by or pursuant to this Trust Deed in relation to any property, assets or undertaking are or may be exercisable by the Trustee or otherwise as to the propriety or regularity of acts purporting or intended to be in exercise of any such powers, authorities or discretions and all the protections of purchasers contained in Sections 106 and 107 of the Law of Property Act 1925 shall apply to any person purchasing from or dealing with the Trustee in like manner as if the statutory powers of sale in relation to such property, assets or undertaking had not been varied or extended by this Trust Deed.

8 APPLICATION OF MONEYS RECEIVED BY THE TRUSTEE

8.1 DECLARATION OF TRUST: All moneys received by the Trustee in respect of the Bonds, the realisation of the security created under the CB Security Documents or amounts payable under this Trust Deed will, despite any appropriation of all or part of them by the Company, be held by the Trustee upon trust to apply them (subject to Clause 8.2):

8.1.1 first, in payment or satisfaction of all costs, charges, expenses and liabilities incurred by the Trustee (including remuneration payable to the Trustee) in carrying out its functions under this Trust Deed;

8.1.2 secondly, in payment of any interest owing in respect of the Bonds (on a pari passu and rateable basis);

8.1.3 thirdly, in payment of any other amounts (including principal and premium) owing in respect of the Bonds pari passu and rateably; and

8.1.4 fourthly, in payment of any balance (if any) to the Company for itself.

If the Trustee holds any moneys in respect of Bonds in respect of which claims have become prescribed under Condition 14, such moneys will be returned to the Company.

11

8.2 ACCUMULATION: If the amount of the moneys at any time available for payment in respect of the Bonds under Clause 8.1 is less than 10 per cent. of (i) interest due under the Bonds or (ii) the principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, the Trustee may, at its discretion, invest such moneys. The Trustee may retain such investments and accumulate the resulting income until the investments and the accumulations, together with any other funds for the time being under its control and available for such payment, amount to at least 10 per cent. of (i) interest due under the Bonds or (ii) the principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding as the case may be, and then such investments, accumulations and funds (after deduction of, or provision for, any applicable taxes) will be applied as specified in Clause 8.1.

8.3 INVESTMENT: Moneys held by the Trustee may, in the Trustee's absolute discretion, be invested in its name or under its control in any investments or other assets anywhere whether or not they produce income, or deposited in its name or under its control at such bank or other financial institution in such currency as the Trustee may, in its absolute discretion, think fit and the Trustee may at any time vary or transfer any of such investments for or into other such investments or convert any moneys so deposited into any other currency. If that bank or institution is the Trustee or a subsidiary, holding or associated company of the Trustee, it need only account for an amount of interest calculated by reference to the rate of interest which at the relevant time would be payable by it on such a deposit to an independent customer. The Trustee may at any time vary or transpose any such investments or assets or convert any moneys so deposited into any other currency, and will not be responsible for any resulting loss, whether by depreciation in value, change in exchange rates or otherwise.

9 COVENANTS

So long as any Bond is outstanding, the Company will comply with all covenants contained in the Conditions.

10 REMUNERATION AND INDEMNIFICATION OF THE TRUSTEE

10.1 NORMAL REMUNERATION: So long as any Bond is outstanding, the Company will pay the Trustee as remuneration for its services as Trustee such sum on such dates in each case as they may from time to time agree, which sums, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be paid free and clear of deduction and withholding on account of taxation. Such remuneration will accrue from day to day from the date of this Trust Deed and shall be payable in priority to payments to the Bondholders.

10.2 EXTRA REMUNERATION: If a Default shall have occurred, or if the Trustee finds it expedient or necessary (acting reasonably), or the Trustee is requested by the Company to undertake duties which they both agree to be of an exceptional nature or otherwise outside the scope of the Trustee's normal duties under this Trust Deed, the Company will pay such additional remuneration as they may

12

agree or, failing agreement as to any of the matters in this Clause (or as to such sums referred to in Clause 10.1), as determined by a merchant or investment bank (acting as an expert) selected by the Trustee and approved by the Company or, failing such approval, nominated by the President for the time being of The Law Society of England and Wales. The expenses involved in such nomination and such merchant or investment bank's fee will be paid by the Company, which sums, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be paid free and clear of deduction and withholding on account of taxation. The determination of such merchant or investment bank will (in the absence of manifest error) be conclusive and binding on the Company, the Trustee and the Bondholders.

10.3 EXPENSES: The Company will on demand by the Trustee pay or discharge all costs, charges, liabilities and expenses properly incurred by the Trustee in the preparation and execution of this Trust Deed and the performance of its functions under, and in any other manner in relation to, this Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement and the Conditions including, but not limited to, expenses incurred seeking appropriate legal or financial advice to discharge its duties in accordance with the Conditions, legal and travelling expenses and any stamp, documentary or other taxes or duties paid or payable by the Trustee in connection with any action or legal proceedings brought or contemplated by the Trustee against the Company to enforce any provision of this Trust Deed or the Bonds. Such costs, charges, liabilities and expenses will:

10.3.1 in the case of payments made by the Trustee before such demand carry interest from the date of the demand at the rate of two per cent. per annum over the overnight rate of Deutsche Bank AG. on the date on which the Trustee made such payments; and

10.3.2 in other cases carry interest at such rate from 15 days after the date of the demand or (where the demand specifies that payment is to be made on an earlier date) from such earlier date.

10.4 INDEMNITY: The Company shall indemnify (to the extent not compensated pursuant to Clause 10.3 above) the Trustee in respect of all Amounts or Claims paid or incurred by it in the carrying out of its functions (including, but not limited to, (i) any Agent/Delegate Liabilities and
(ii) in respect of defending any Amounts or Claims brought against the Trustee or in respect of any Agent/Delegate Liabilities). The Company shall promptly following demand by such agent or delegate indemnify it against such Agent/Delegate Liabilities. In this Clause 10.4, "AMOUNTS OR CLAIMS" are losses, liabilities, costs, claims, actions, demands or expenses (other than claims which arise from the willful default, gross negligence or fraud of the Trustee); and "AGENT/DELEGATE LIABILITIES" are Amounts or Claims which the Trustee is or would be obliged to pay or reimburse to any of its agents or delegates appointed pursuant to this Trust Deed. The Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 applies to this Clause 10.4.

13

10.5 CONTINUING EFFECT: Clauses 10.3 and 10.4 will continue in full force and effect as regards the Trustee even if it no longer is Trustee or the Bonds are no longer outstanding or this Trust Deed has been discharged.

11 PROVISIONS SUPPLEMENTAL TO THE TRUSTEE ACT 1925 AND THE TRUSTEE ACT 2000

By way of supplement to the Trustee Act 1925 and the Trustee Act 2000 it is expressly declared as follows:

11.1 ADVICE: The Trustee may in relation to this Trust Deed act on the opinion or advice of, or a certificate or any information obtained from any lawyer, valuer, surveyor, broker, auctioneer, accountant or other expert (including the Manager) whether obtained by it, the Company or any Agent or any other person and which advice, opinion, certificate or information may be provided on such terms (including as to limitations on liability) as the Trustee may consider in its sole discretion to be consistent with the prevailing market practice in relation thereto and will not be responsible to anyone for any loss occasioned by so acting. Any such opinion, advice, certificate or information may be sent or obtained by letter, telex or fax and the Trustee will not be liable to anyone for acting in good faith on any opinion, advice, certificate or information purporting to be conveyed by such means even if it contains some error or is not authentic.

11.2 TRUSTEE TO ASSUME DUE PERFORMANCE: The Trustee need not notify anyone of the execution of this Trust Deed or do anything to find out if an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred. Until it has actual knowledge or express notice in writing from the Company to the contrary, the Trustee may assume that no such event has occurred and that the Company is performing all its obligations under this Trust Deed and the Bonds, and no event has happened as a consequence of which any of the Bonds may become repayable.

11.3 RESOLUTIONS OF BONDHOLDERS: The Trustee will not be responsible for having acted in good faith upon a resolution in writing purporting to have been signed by the requisite Bondholders or upon a resolution purporting to have been passed at a meeting of Bondholders in respect of which minutes have been made and signed, even if it is later found that there was a defect in the constitution of the meeting or the passing of the resolution or that the resolution was not valid or binding on the Bondholders.

11.4 CERTIFICATE SIGNED BY DIRECTOR AND/OR AUTHORISED OFFICER: If the Trustee, in the exercise of its functions, requires to be satisfied or to have information as to any fact or the expediency of any act, it may call for and accept as sufficient evidence of that fact or the expediency of that act a certificate signed by one Director and/or Authorised Officer of the Company as to that fact or to the effect that, in their opinion, that act is expedient and the Trustee need not call for further evidence and will not be responsible for any loss occasioned by acting on such a certificate.

14

11.5 DEPOSIT OF DOCUMENTS: The Trustee may deposit this Trust Deed and any other documents in any part of the world with any bank or entity whose business includes the safe custody of documents or with any lawyer or firm of lawyers believed by it to be of good repute and may pay all sums due in respect thereof and the Trustee shall not be responsible for or required to insure against any loss incurred in connection with such deposit.

11.6 DISCRETION: Save as expressly provided in this Trust Deed, the Trustee will have absolute and uncontrolled discretion as to the exercise or non-exercise of its functions and will not be responsible for any loss, liability, cost, claim, action, demand, expense or inconvenience which may result from their exercise or non-exercise. Whenever in this Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement or by law, the Trustee shall have discretion or permissive power it may decline to exercise the same in the absence of approval by the Bondholders and need not exercise the same unless it has been indemnified and/or provided with security to its satisfaction.

11.7 AGENTS: Whenever it considers it reasonably expedient in the interests of the Bondholders, the Trustee may (after prior consultation with the Company where, in the reasonable opinion of the Trustee, so to do would be both practicable and not materially prejudicial to the interests of the Bondholders), in the conduct of its trust business, instead of acting personally, employ and pay an agent selected by it, whether or not a lawyer or other professional person (including the Manager), to transact or conduct, or concur in transacting or conducting, any business and to do or concur in doing all acts required to be done by the Trustee (including the receipt and payment of money). The Trustee will not be responsible to anyone for any misconduct or omission by any such agent so employed by it or be bound to supervise the proceedings or acts of any such agent.

11.8 DELEGATION: Whenever it reasonably considers it expedient in the interests of the Bondholders, the Trustee may delegate to any person on any terms (including power to delegate) all or any of its functions. Any such delegation may be by power of attorney or in such other manner as the Trustee may reasonably think fit and subject to such regulation as the Trustee may think fit. The Trustee shall exercise reasonable care in its appointment of any delegate on the terms of this Clause 11.8 (Delegation). Provided it has exercised such reasonable care, the Trustee will not have any obligation to notify anyone of such appointment or to supervise such delegate or be responsible for any loss, liability, cost, claim, action, demand or expense incurred by reason of any misconduct or default by any such delegate or sub-delegate. The Trustee will not have any obligation to supervise such delegate or be responsible for any loss, liability, cost, claim, action, demand or expense incurred by reason of any misconduct or default by any such delegate. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee shall be entitled at any time following an Event of Default which is continuing to appoint an agent (subject to the provisions of applicable law) in the name and on behalf of the Company.

15

11.9 CONFIDENTIALITY: Unless ordered to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction the Trustee shall not be required to disclose to any Bondholder any confidential financial or other information made available to the Trustee by the Company and no Bondholder shall be entitled to take any action to obtain from the Trustee any such information.

11.10 DETERMINATIONS CONCLUSIVE: As between itself and the Bondholders the Trustee may determine all questions and doubts arising in relation to any of the provisions of this Trust Deed. Such determinations, whether made upon such a question actually raised or implied in the acts or proceedings of the Trustee, will be conclusive and shall bind the Trustee and the Bondholders.

11.11 CURRENCY CONVERSION: Where it is necessary or desirable to convert any sum from one currency to another, it will (unless otherwise provided hereby or required by law) be converted at such rate or rates, in accordance with such method and as at such date as may be specified by the Trustee in its absolute discretion but having regard to current rates of exchange, if available offered by Deutsche Bank AG. Any rate, method and date so specified will be binding on the Company and the Bondholders.

11.12 EVENTS OF DEFAULT: The Trustee may determine whether or not a Default is in its opinion capable of remedy and/or materially prejudicial to the interests of the Bondholders. Any such determination and any determination as to materiality required of it will be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Bondholders.

11.13 PAYMENT FOR BONDS: The Trustee will not be responsible for the receipt or application by the Company of the proceeds of the issue of the Bonds or the delivery of Certificates to the persons entitled to them.

11.14 BONDS HELD BY THE COMPANY ETC.: In the absence of actual knowledge or express notice to the contrary, the Trustee may assume without enquiry that no Bonds are for the time being held beneficially by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

11.15 THE SHARES: The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility at any time in respect of the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of the Shares or any other property which may at any time be issued on the conversion of any Bond or the sale or other disposal of any Shares. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any failure of the Company to make available any Shares, share certificates or any other securities or property or make any payment on the conversion of any Bond.

11.16 RESPONSIBILITY: The Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of Recital (A), any representation or warranty given by any person in this Trust Deed, nor shall the Trustee by the execution of this Trust Deed be deemed to make any representation as to the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of this Trust Deed or any part hereof.

16

11.17 ACTION BY THE TRUSTEE: Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Trust Deed the Trustee shall not be required to take any action prior to making any declaration under Condition 12 that the Bonds are immediately due and payable (save that it will procure notice to be given to the Bondholders of any Event of Default of which it has actual knowledge or express notice) if such action would require the Trustee to incur any expenditure or other financial liability or risk its own funds (including obtaining any advice which it might otherwise have thought appropriate to obtain). The Trustee shall not be under any obligation to act following an Event of Default unless it shall have been indemnified to its satisfaction.

11.18 CONSOLIDATION, AMALGAMATION ETC.: The Trustee shall not be responsible for any consolidation, amalgamation, merger, reconstruction or scheme of the Company or any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the form or substance of any plan relating thereto or the consequences thereof to any Bondholder.

11.19 BONDS AND DOCUMENTS: The Trustee shall not be liable to the Company or any Bondholder if it has accepted as valid or has not rejected any Certificate purporting to be such and subsequently found to be forged or not authentic, nor shall it be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in reliance on any document, certificate or communication believed by it to be genuine and to have been presented or signed by the proper parties, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Register.

11.20 CONSENT: Any consent given by the Trustee for the purposes of this Trust Deed may be given on such terms and subject to such conditions (if any) as the Trustee thinks fit.

11.21 TRUSTEE'S FUNDS: Nothing herein shall be construed to require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds in the discharge or its duties and responsibilities hereunder.

11.22 TRANSACTIONS WITH THE COMPANY: Nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee from entering into financial transactions with the Company.

11.23 INTERESTS OF BONDHOLDERS: In connection with the exercise of its powers, trusts, authorities or discretions (including, but not limited to, those in relation to any proposed modifications, waiver or authorisation of any breach or proposed breach of any of the Conditions or any of the provisions of this Trust Deed), the Trustee shall have regard to the general interests of the Bondholders as a class and shall not have regard to any interest arising from circumstances particular to individual Bondholders (whatever their number) and, in particular but without limitation, shall not have regard to the consequences of such exercise for individual Bondholders (whatever their number) resulting from their being for any purpose domiciled or resident in, or otherwise connected with, or subject to the jurisdiction of, any particular territory or otherwise to the tax consequences thereof and the Trustee shall not

17

be entitled to require, nor shall any Bondholder be entitled to claim from the Company or the Trustee, any indemnification or payment in respect of any tax consequence of any such exercise upon individual Bondholders except to the extent provided for in any undertakings given in addition thereto or in substitution therefor pursuant to this Trust Deed.

11.24 ACTION CONTRARY TO LAW ETC. The Trustee may refrain from doing anything in any jurisdiction if doing the relevant thing in that jurisdiction would, in its opinion based upon legal advice in the relevant jurisdiction, be contrary to any law of that jurisdiction or, to the extent applicable, of England, or would otherwise render it liable to any person in that jurisdiction or England or if, in its opinion based upon such legal advice, it would not have power to do the relevant thing in that jurisdiction by virtue of any applicable law in that jurisdiction or in England or if it is determined by any court or other competent authority in that jurisdiction or in England that it does not have such power.

12 TRUSTEE LIABLE FOR NEGLIGENCE

The duty of care that applies to a trustee under Section 2 of the Trustee Act 2000 shall not apply to the Trustee. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) the Trustee may retain or invest in securities payable to bearer without appointing a person to act as custodian and (b) the application of Sections 22 or 23 of the Trustee Act 2000 is inconsistent with the terms of this Trust Deed.

Subject thereto, if the Trustee fails to show the degree of care and diligence required of it as trustee having regard to the provisions hereof, nothing in this Trust Deed shall relieve or indemnify it from or against any liability which by any rule of law would otherwise attach to it in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which it may be guilty in relation to its duties under this Trust Deed.

13 WAIVER AND PROOF OF DEFAULT

13.1 WAIVER: The Trustee may, without the consent of the Bondholders and without prejudice to its rights in respect of any subsequent breach, from time to time and at any time, if in its opinion the interests of the Bondholders will not be materially prejudiced thereby, waive or authorise, on such terms as seem expedient to it, any breach or proposed breach by the Company of the provisions of this Trust Deed or the Conditions or determine that a Default will not be treated as such provided that the Trustee will not do so in contravention of an express direction given by an Extraordinary Resolution or a request made pursuant to Condition 12. No such direction or request will affect a previous waiver, authorisation or determination. Any such waiver, authorisation or determination will be binding on the Bondholders and, if the Trustee so requires, will be notified to the Bondholders as soon as practicable.

13.2 PROOF OF DEFAULT: Proof that the Company has failed to pay a sum due to the holder of any one Bond will (unless the contrary be proved and in the absence

18

of manifest error) be sufficient evidence that it has made the same default as regards all other Bonds which are then payable.

14 TRUSTEE NOT PRECLUDED FROM ENTERING INTO CONTRACTS

The Trustee may acquire, hold or dispose of any Bond or other security (or any interest therein) of the Company or any other person, may enter into or be interested in any contract or transaction with any such person and may act on, or as depositary or agent for, any committee or body of holders of any securities of any such person in each case with the same rights as it would have had if the Trustee were not acting as Trustee and need not account for any profit.

15 MODIFICATION

The Trustee may agree without the consent of the Bondholders to any modification to this Trust Deed which is of a formal, minor or technical nature or is made to correct a manifest error or to comply with mandatory provisions of law. The Trustee may also so agree to any modification to this Trust Deed or to any modification of Bondholders' conversion rights in respect of the Bonds which is in its opinion not materially prejudicial to the interests of the Bondholders, but such power does not extend to any such modification as is mentioned in the proviso to paragraph 15 of Schedule 3. Any such modification will be binding on the Bondholders and, if the Trustee so requires, will be notified to the Bondholders as soon as practicable.

16 APPOINTMENT, RETIREMENT AND REMOVAL OF THE TRUSTEE

16.1 APPOINTMENT: The Company has the power of appointing new trustees but no one may be so appointed unless previously approved by an Extraordinary Resolution. The Trustee will at all times be a trust corporation and may be the sole Trustee. Any appointment of a new Trustee will be notified by the Company to the Bondholders as soon as practicable.

16.2 RETIREMENT AND REMOVAL: Any Trustee may retire at any time on giving at least 60 days' advance written notice to the Company without giving any reason and without being responsible for any costs occasioned by such retirement or, the appointment of a new trustee which shall be borne by the Company. The Bondholders may by Extraordinary Resolution remove any Trustee provided that the retirement or removal of a sole trust corporation will not become effective until a trust corporation is appointed as successor Trustee. If a sole trust corporation gives notice of retirement or an Extraordinary Resolution is passed for its removal, the Company will use all reasonable endeavours to procure that another trust corporation be appointed as Trustee and if, after 60 days of such notice having been given the Company has failed to do so, the Trustee shall be entitled but not obliged to appoint another trust corporation selected by the Trustee as its successor.

16.3 CO-TRUSTEES: The Trustee may, despite Clause 16.1, by advance written notice to the Company appoint anyone to act as an additional Trustee jointly with the Trustee:

19

16.3.1 if the Trustee considers such appointment to be in the interests of the Bondholders;

16.3.2 to conform with any legal requirement, restriction or condition in a jurisdiction in which a particular act is to be performed; or

16.3.3 to obtain a judgment or to enforce a judgment or any provision of this Trust Deed in any jurisdiction.

Subject to the provisions of this Trust Deed the Trustee may confer on any person so appointed such functions as it thinks fit (provided that such functions shall not extend beyond those functions empowered to the Trustee pursuant to this Trust Deed or the CB Security Documents). The Trustee may by written notice to the Company and that person remove that person. At the Trustee's request, the Company will forthwith do all things as may be required to perfect such appointment or removal and it irrevocably appoints the Trustee to be its attorney in its name and on its behalf to do so. The Trustee shall not be responsible for supervising any such additional trustee.

16.4 COMPETENCE OF A MAJORITY OF TRUSTEES: If there are more than two Trustees the majority of them will be competent to perform the Trustee's functions provided the majority includes a trust corporation.

16.5 SUCCESSOR: Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder (provided it is a trust corporation) without the execution of filing of any papers or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

17 CURRENCY INDEMNITY

17.1 CURRENCY OF ACCOUNT AND PAYMENT: U.S. Dollars (the "CONTRACTUAL CURRENCY") is the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Company under or in connection with this Trust Deed and the Bonds, including damages. If any sum due from the Company in respect of the Bonds under the Trust Deed or any order or judgment given or made in relation thereto has to be converted from the currency (the "first currency") in which the same is payable under these Conditions or such order or judgment into another currency (the "second currency") for the purpose of (a) making or filing a claim or proof against the Company, (b) obtaining an order or judgment in any court or other tribunal or (c) enforcing any order or judgment given or made in relation to the Bonds, the Company shall indemnify each Bondholder, on the written demand of such Bondholder addressed to the Company and delivered to the Company or to the specified office of the Registrar or any Paying and Transfer Agent with its specified office in London against any loss suffered as a result of any discrepancy between (i) the rate of

20

exchange used for such purpose to convert the sum in question from the first currency into the second currency and (ii) the rate or rates of exchange at which such Bondholder may in the ordinary course of business purchase the first currency with the second currency upon receipt of a sum paid to it in satisfaction, in whole or in part, of any such order, judgment, claim or proof.

17.2 INDEMNITIES SEPARATE: This indemnity and the indemnity in Clause 10.4 constitute separate and independent obligations from the other obligations in this Trust Deed, will each give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, will apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Trustee and/or any Bondholder and will continue in full force and effect despite any judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under this Trust Deed and/or the Bonds or any judgment or order. No proof of actual loss may be required.

Each period beginning on (and including) the Issue Date or any Interest Payment Date and ending on (but excluding) the next Interest Payment Date is herein called an "INTEREST PERIOD".

(B) CESSATION OF INTEREST

49

Each Tranche A Bond will cease to bear interest from the due date for final redemption unless, upon due presentation, payment of principal is improperly withheld or refused, in which case it will continue to bear interest in accordance with this Condition (after as well as before judgment) until the day on which all sums due in respect of such Tranche A Bond up to that day have been paid by the Company to the Principal Agent (or, for so long as the Bonds and/or Shares held by the Initial Purchaser are secured under the Debenture and the YGEH Share Charge, the Principal Agent for the Notes under the Notes Agency Agreement).

(C) CALCULATION OF INTEREST RATE

The rate of interest applicable to the Tranche A Bonds (the "RATE OF INTEREST") for each Interest Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent on the following basis:

(i) the Calculation Agent will determine the British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rate for deposits in U.S. dollars for a period equal to the relevant Interest Period which appears on the appropriate display page designated 3750 on the Bridge/Telerate service (or such other page as may replace that page on that service, or such other service as may be nominated as the information vendor, for the purpose of displaying comparable rates) (the "SCREEN RATE") as of 12.00 noon (London time) on the second Business Day before the first day of the relevant Interest Period (the "INTEREST DETERMINATION DATE");

(ii) if such rate does not appear on that page on that time, the Calculation Agent will:

(A) request the principal London office of each of four major banks in the London interbank market to provide a quotation of the rate at which deposits in U.S. dollars are offered by it in the London interbank market at approximately 12.00 noon (London time) on the Interest Determination Date to prime banks in the London interbank market for a period equal to the relevant Interest Period and in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time; and

(B) determine the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the fifth decimal place, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of such quotations; and

(iii) if fewer than two such quotations are provided as requested, the Calculation Agent will determine the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, as aforesaid) of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, at approximately 11.00
a.m. (New York City time) on the first day of the relevant Interest Period for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks for a period equal to the relevant Interest Period and in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time,

and the Rate of Interest shall be the sum of (A)(1) 2.00 per cent. per annum (the "STAGE 1 MARGIN") in respect of each Interest Period prior to and including the Interest Period ending

50

on the Interest Payment Date falling in 16 August 2007 or (2) 4.00 per cent. per annum (the "STAGE 2 MARGIN") thereafter and (B) the Screen Rate or the arithmetic mean so determined in respect of each Interest Period thereafter; provided, however, that if the Agent Bank is unable to determine an arithmetic mean in accordance with the above provisions in relation to any Interest Period, the Rate of Interest applicable to the Notes during such Interest Period will be the sum of the Stage 1 Margin or the Stage 2 Margin, as the case may be, and the rate (or as the case may be) arithmetic mean last determined in relation to the Tranche B Bonds in respect of a preceding Interest Period.

(D) CALCULATION OF INTEREST AMOUNT

The Calculation Agent will, as soon as practicable after the Interest Determination Date in relation to each Interest Period, calculate the amount of interest (the "INTEREST AMOUNT") payable in respect of each Tranche B Bond for such Interest Period. The Interest Amount will be calculated by applying the Rate of Interest for such Interest Period to the principal amount outstanding of such Tranche B Bond during such Interest Period, multiplying the product by the actual number of days in such Interest Period divided by 360 and rounding the resulting figure to the nearest cent (half a cent being rounded upwards).

(E) PUBLICATION OF INTEREST RATE

The Calculation Agent will cause each Rate of Interest and Interest Amount determined by it, together with the relevant Interest Payment Date, to be notified to the Paying Agents and to the Company as soon as practicable after such determination but in any event not later than the first day of the relevant Interest Period. Notice thereof shall also promptly be given to the Bondholders. The Calculation Agent will be entitled to recalculate any Interest Amount (on the basis of the foregoing provisions) without notice in the event of an extension or shortening of the relevant Interest Period.

(F) CALCULATIONS BINDING

All notifications, opinions, determinations, certificates, calculations, quotations and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for the purposes of this Condition 8 (Interest) by the Calculation Agent will (in the absence of manifest error) be binding on the Company, the Paying Agents and the Bondholders and (subject as aforesaid) no liability to any such person will attach to the Calculation Agent in connection with the exercise or non-exercise by it of its powers, duties and discretions for such purposes.

(G) PAYMENT FROM ACCOUNT

Without prejudice to the Company's obligation to pay any shortfall in the event there are insufficient monies in the YGEH Account, the Company shall pay interest due on the first 3 Interest Payment Dates from the initial amount deposited into the YGEH Account in accordance with Condition 6.3.1(B)(iii).

51

9. PAYMENTS

However, upon application by the holder to the specified office of the Registrar or any Paying and Transfer Agent not less than 15 days before the due date for any payment in respect of a Tranche B Bond, such payment may be made by transfer to a United States dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in New York City.

Where payment is to be made by cheque, the cheque will be mailed, on the Business Day preceding the due date for payment or, in the case of payments referred to in Condition 10(A), if later, on the Business Day on which the relevant Tranche B Bond is surrendered (at the risk and, if mailed at the request of the holder otherwise than by ordinary mail, expense of the holder).

Bondholders will not be entitled to any interest or other payment for any delay after the due date in receiving the amount due (i) as a result of the due date not being a Business Day, (ii) if a cheque mailed in accordance with this Condition arrives after the date for payment.

(C) PAYMENTS SUBJECT TO FISCAL LAWS

All payments in respect of the Tranche B Bonds are subject in all cases to any applicable fiscal or other laws and regulations in the place of payment, but without prejudice to the provisions of Condition 11. No commissions or expenses shall be charged to the Bondholders in respect of such payments.

52

Unless previously redeemed or purchased and cancelled as herein provided, the Company will redeem the Tranche B Bonds on 16 November 2008 at 100 per cent. of their principal amount in US dollars plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Breakage (if any).

The Tranche B Bonds may be redeemed in whole prior to that date only as provided in paragraphs (B) and (C) below (but without prejudice to Condition 12).

53

(C) MANDATORY REDEMPTION AND CONVERSION

Upon the occurrence of an IPO Event, the Tranche B Bonds shall be converted, on the date of fixing of the offer price of Shares pursuant to the IPO Event (the "EXCHANGE DATE"), to the Conversion Shares. The Conversion shares shall be issued to and registered in (for so long as the Bonds and/or Shares held by the Initial Purchaser are secured under the Debenture and Share Charge) the name of the Notes Trustee.

"CONVERSION SHARES" means such number of the Shares representing in aggregate X% of the total issued share capital of the Company.

"X%" means as determined by the Calculation Agent (in consultation with the Company), such percentage of shares in the Company (on a Fully Diluted Basis) that would represent an effective ownership of 3.73% in the equity of TYNER (on such a Fully Diluted Basis).

(D) ISSUE OF SHARES

(i) Upon conversion of the Tranche B Bonds for Shares, the Company will, as soon as practicable, and in any event not later than the closing date of the IPO Event, cause the relevant securities account of the Notes Trustee (for so long as the Bonds and/or Shares held by the Initial Purchaser are secured under the Debenture and the Share Charge) or of the relevant Bondholder or their respective nominee to be credited with such number of relevant Shares to be issued upon conversion.

(ii) The Shares issued upon conversion of the Tranche B Bonds will in all respects rank pari passu with the Shares in issue on the relevant conversion date (except for any right excluded by mandatory provisions of applicable law) and such Shares shall be entitled to all rights the record date for which falls on or after such conversion date to the same extent as all other fully-paid and non-assessable Shares of the Company in issue as if such Shares had been in issue throughout the period to which such rights relate.

(iii) The Company shall pay all stamp, issue, registration or similar taxes and duties (if any) arising on conversion of the Tranche B Bonds and the issue and allotment of Shares on conversion. The Company will pay all other expenses arising on the issue of Shares on conversion of the Tranche B Bonds and all charges of the Agents and the share transfer agent for the Shares in connection with conversion.

(E) REPURCHASE

The Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as defined above) may, if permitted under applicable laws, at any time repurchase Tranche B Bonds or interests therein. The Company or the relevant Subsidiary is required to submit to the Registrar for cancellation any Tranche B Bonds so purchased.

(F) NO RE-ISSUE

Tranche B Bonds which have been redeemed or converted or purchased by the Company or its Subsidiaries may not be re-issued or resold and shall be cancelled upon redemption, conversion or purchase. Certificates in respect of all Tranche B Bonds cancelled will be forwarded to or to the order of the Principal Agent.

(G) REDEMPTION NOTICES

All notices to Bondholders given by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Condition 10 will where applicable specify the date fixed for redemption, the redemption amount, and the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Bonds outstanding.

11. TAXATION

All payments of principal and interest by the Company will be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments, or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of the government of the Cayman Islands or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax, unless deduction or withholding of such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges is compelled by law. In that event, the Company will pay such additional amounts by way of principal and interest as will result in the receipt by the Bondholders of the amounts which would otherwise have been receivable in respect of principal and interest in the absence of any such withholding or deduction, except that no such additional amount shall be payable in respect of any Tranche B Bond:

(i) to a holder (or a third party on behalf of a holder) who is subject to such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges in respect of such Tranche B Bond by reason of his having some connection with the Cayman Islands otherwise than merely by holding such Tranche B Bond or by receipt of principal, premium, if any, or interest in respect of such Tranche B Bond;

(ii) if the Certificate in respect of such Tranche B Bond is surrendered more than 30 days after the relevant date except to the extent that the holder would have been entitled to such additional amount on surrendering the relevant Certificate for payment on the last day of such period of 30 days;

(iii) where such withholding or deduction is imposed on a payment to an individual and is required to be made pursuant to European Union Directive 2003/48/EC or any other Directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive; or

(iv) presented for payment by or on behalf of a Bondholder who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Tranche B Bond to another Paying Agent in a Member State of the European Union.

In these Conditions "RELEVANT DATE" means, in relation to any date for payments on the Tranche B Bonds, whichever is the later of (a) the date on which such payment first becomes due and (b) if the full amount payable has not been received in Hong Kong by the Trustee or the Principal Agent on or prior to such due date, the date on which, the full amount having been so received, notice to that effect shall have been given to the Bondholders.

References in these Conditions to principal and interest shall be deemed also to refer to any additional amounts which may be payable under this Condition 11 or any undertaking or covenant given in addition thereto or in substitution thereof pursuant to the Trust Deed.

The Trust Deed contains provisions for convening meetings of Bondholders holding Tranche A Bonds and Tranche B Bonds to consider matters relating to the Bonds, including the modification of any of these Conditions or any provisions of the Trust Deed. Any such modification may be made if sanctioned by an Extraordinary Resolution (as defined in the Trust Deed).

(C) ENTITLEMENT OF THE TRUSTEE

In connection with the exercise of its functions (including but not limited to those in relation to any proposed modification, authorisation or waiver) the Trustee shall have regard to the interests of the Bondholders as a class and shall not have regard to the consequences of such exercise for individual Bondholders and the Trustee shall not be entitled to require, nor shall any Bondholder be entitled to claim from the Company, any indemnification or payment in respect of any tax consequences of any such individual Bondholders.

18. ENFORCEMENT

At any time after the Tranche B Bonds become due and payable and amounts in respect thereof remain outstanding, the Trustee may at any time without notice, institute such proceedings as it thinks fit to enforce its rights under the Trust Deed in respect of the Bonds, but if it has been so requested in writing by the holders of a least two thirds in principal amount of the outstanding Bonds or has been so directed by an Extraordinary Resolution, but it shall not be bound to do so unless it has been indemnified or provided with security to its satisfaction.

60

The Trustee may, in making any determination under these Conditions, act on the opinion or advice of, or information obtained from, any expert (including the Manager) and will not be responsible for any loss, liability, cost, claim, action, demand, expense or inconvenience which may result from it so acting.

Until the Trustee has actual or express knowledge to the contrary, the Trustee may assume that no Default has occurred.

The Trustee is not liable for any failure to monitor compliance by the Company with the Conditions (including Conditions 6 (Covenants) and 12 (Events of Default)) and may rely upon the information provided to it in any certificate by the Company pursuant to these Conditions.

19. INDEMNIFICATION OF THE TRUSTEE

The Trust Deed contains provisions for the indemnification of the Trustee and for its relief from responsibility. The Trustee is entitled to enter into business transactions with the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and affiliated companies without accounting for any profits.

20. NOTICES

Notices to the Bondholders shall be valid if delivered to their respective addresses and/or facsimile numbers contained in the register of Bondholders. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given when delivered or 5 days after registered posting, whichever is earlier, or, in the case of fax, at the time of despatch if the correct error-free transmission report is received provided that if such communication would take effect outside business hours in the place of receipt then it shall be deemed to be received on the next business day in the place of receipt. Any communication not by letter shall be confirmed by letter but failure to send or receive the letter of confirmation shall not invalidate the original communication. For so long as the Bonds and/or Shares held by the Initial Purchaser are secured under the debenture and the Share Charge, all notices must be copied to the Notes Trustee.

21. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

(A) GOVERNING LAW

The Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement and the Bonds are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, English Law.

61

9 Unless a poll is (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands) demanded at a meeting by the chairman, the Company, the Trustee or by one or more persons holding one or more Bonds or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than 2 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds for the time being outstanding, a declaration by the chairman that a resolution has been carried or carried by a particular majority or lost or not carried by a particular majority shall be conclusive evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or against such resolution.

10 If a poll is demanded, it shall be taken in such manner and (subject as provided below) either at once or after such an adjournment as the chairman directs and the result of such poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded as at the date of the taking of the poll. The demand for a poll shall not prevent the continuation of the meeting for the transaction of any business other than the question on which the poll has been demanded.

11 A poll demanded on the election of a chairman or on any question of adjournment shall be taken at the meeting without adjournment.

12 The Company and the Trustee (through their respective representatives) and their respective financial and legal advisers may attend and speak at any meeting of Bondholders. No one else may attend or speak at a meeting of Bondholders unless he is the holder of a Bond or is a proxy or a representative.

13 On a show of hands every holder who is present in person or any person who is present and is a proxy or a representative shall have one vote and on a poll every person who is so present shall have one vote in respect of each US$500,000 principal amount of Bonds held or in respect of which he is a proxy or a representative. Without prejudice to the obligations of proxies, a person entitled to more than one vote need not use them all or cast them all in the same way.

14 A proxy need not be a Bondholder.

15 A meeting of Bondholders shall, subject to the Conditions, in addition to the powers given above, but without prejudice to any powers conferred on other persons by this Trust Deed, have power exercisable only by Extraordinary Resolution:

68

(A) to sanction any proposal by the Company for any modification, abrogation, variation or compromise of, or arrangement in respect of, the rights of the Bondholders against the Company whether or not such rights arise under this Trust Deed;

(B) to sanction the exchange or substitution for the Bonds of, or the conversion of the Bonds into, shares, bonds, or other obligations or securities of the Company or any other entity;

(C) to assent to any modification of this Trust Deed or the Bonds which shall be proposed by the Company or the Trustee;

(D) to authorise anyone to concur in and do anything necessary to carry out and give effect to an Extraordinary Resolution;

(E) to give any authority, direction or sanction required to be given by Extraordinary Resolution;

(F) to appoint any persons (whether Bondholders or not) as a committee or committees to represent the interests of the Bondholders and to confer on them any powers or discretions which the Bondholders could themselves exercise by Extraordinary Resolution;

(G) to approve the substitution of any entity for the Company (or any previous substitute) as principal debtor under this Trust Deed;

(H) to approve a proposed new Trustee and to remove a Trustee; and

(I) to discharge or exonerate the Trustee from any liability in respect of any act or omission for which it may become responsible under this Trust Deed or the Bonds,

provided that the special quorum provisions contained in paragraph 4 and, in the case of an adjourned meeting, in paragraph 5 shall apply in relation to any Extraordinary Resolution for the purpose of making any modification to the provisions contained in this Trust Deed or the Bonds which would have the effect of:

(i) modifying the status or ranking of the Bonds;

(ii) reducing or cancel the principal amount of or rate of interest or other amounts in respect of the Bonds;

(iii) changing the currency of payment of the Bonds or the due date or date for any payment in respect of the Bonds;

(iv) modifying the provisions concerning the quorum required at any meeting of Bondholders or the majority required to pass an Extraordinary Resolution; or

(v) modifying this proviso.

69

16 An Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of Bondholders duly convened and held in accordance with this Trust Deed shall be binding on all the Bondholders, whether or not present at the meeting, and each of them shall be bound to give effect to it accordingly. The passing of such a resolution shall be conclusive evidence that the circumstances of such resolution justify the passing of it.

17 The expression "EXTRAORDINARY RESOLUTION" means a resolution passed at a meeting of Bondholders duly convened and held in accordance with these provisions by a majority consisting of not less than two-thirds (or, in the case of the matters listed in paragraph 15(i) to (v) above, 80%) of the votes cast.

18 A resolution in writing signed by or on behalf of the holders of not less than 90 per cent. in principal amount of the Bonds who for the time being are entitled to receive notice of a meeting in accordance with these provisions shall for all purposes be as valid as an Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of Bondholders convened and held in accordance with these provisions. Such resolution in writing may be in one document or several documents in like form each signed by or on behalf of one or more of the Bondholders.

19 Minutes shall be made of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting and, if purporting to be signed by the chairman of that meeting or of the next succeeding meeting of Bondholders, shall be conclusive evidence of the matters in them. Until the contrary is proved every meeting for which minutes have been so made and signed shall be deemed to have been duly convened and held and all resolutions passed or proceedings transacted at it to have been duly passed and transacted.

20 Subject to all other provisions contained in this Trust Deed the Trustee may without the consent of the Bondholders prescribe such further regulations regarding the holding of meetings and attendance and voting at them or regarding the making of resolutions in writing as the Trustee may in its sole discretion determine including (without limitation) such regulations and requirements as the Trustee thinks reasonable to satisfy itself that persons who purport to make any requisition in accordance with this Trust Deed are entitled to do so and that those who purport to attend or vote at a meeting or to sign a written resolution are entitled to do so.

SECTION 7.02. Method of Asserting Claims. All claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party under Section 7.01 must be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) In the event any claim or demand in respect of which an Indemnified Party might seek indemnity under Section 7.01 is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a Person other than the Warrantors or any of their respective Affiliates (a "THIRD PARTY CLAIM"), the Indemnified Party shall deliver a Claim Notice with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party as soon as practicable within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under Section 7.01 and whether the Indemnifying Party desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim.

(i) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 7.02(a), then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be vigorously and diligently prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or shall be settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party (but only with the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in the case of any settlement that provides for any relief other than the payment of monetary damages as to which the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified in full). The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including (except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence) any settlement thereof, except that:

(x) the Indemnified Party may, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnified Party, at any time prior to the Indemnifying Party's delivery of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this clause (i), file any motion, answer or other pleadings or take any other action that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be necessary or appropriate to protect its interests and not prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party (it being understood and agreed that, except as provided in clause (ii) below, if an Indemnified Party takes any such action that is prejudicial and causes a final adjudication that is adverse to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to the portion of such Third Party Claim prejudiced by the Indemnified Party's action); and

(y) if requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim that the

24

Indemnifying Party elects to contest, or, if appropriate and related to the Third Party Claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the Third Party Claim, or any cross-complaint against any Person (other than the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates).

The Indemnified Party may retain separate counsel to represent it in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this clause (i), and the Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such separate counsel except as provided in the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may retain or take over the control of the defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim the defense of which the Indemnifying Party has elected to control if the Indemnified Party irrevocably waives its right to indemnity under Section 7.01 with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(ii) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 7.02(a), then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be vigorously and diligently prosecuted by the Indemnified Party to a final conclusion or shall be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party (with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Indemnified Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including (except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence) any settlement thereof; provided, however, that:

(x) if requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnified Party is contesting, or, if appropriate and related to the Third Party Claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the Third Party Claim, or any cross-complaint against any Person (other than the Indemnifying Party or any of its Affiliates);

(y) notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause
(ii), if the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability hereunder to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the Indemnifying Party in the manner provided in clause
(iii) below, the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to bear the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party's defense pursuant to this clause (ii) or of the Indemnifying Party's participation therein at the Indemnified Party's request, and the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party in full for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in connection with such litigation; and

25

(z) the Indemnifying Party may retain separate counsel to represent it in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this clause (ii), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(iii) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim under Section 7.01 or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, the Loss arising from such Third Party Claim shall, subject to the provisions of
Section 7.01(c), be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 7.01 and the Indemnifying Party shall, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01(c), pay the amount of such Loss to the Indemnified Party on demand following the final determination thereof. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions in Section 10.10.

(b) In the event of a claim by any Indemnified Party under Section 7.01 against any Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver an Indemnity Notice with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim described in such Indemnity Notice or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim described in such Indemnity Notice, the Loss arising from the claim specified in such Indemnity Notice shall, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01(c), be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 7.01 and the Indemnifying Party shall, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01(c), pay the amount of such Loss to the Indemnified Party on demand following the final determination thereof. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute, and if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions in Section 10.10.

SECTION 7.03. Exclusivity. After the Closing, except in the event of fraud or willful breach of representations, warranties or covenants herein, the indemnities set forth in this Article VII shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of each Investor and its respective officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates for any breach of representation or warranty or nonfulfillment of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement made in this Agreement, and the parties shall not be entitled to a rescission of this Agreement or to any further indemnification rights or claims of any nature whatsoever in respect thereof, all of which the parties hereto hereby waive. No Person who was an officer, director or stockholder of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries prior to the Closing or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to make any payment in respect of any breach of any representation or warranty

26

or non-performance of any covenant or agreement made in this Agreement, except for the Company's indemnification obligations under this Article VII.

investors listed on Schedule I attached thereto, and contains the sole and entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

SECTION 10.03. Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each party shall pay its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution and closing of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; provided, however, that such costs and expenses incurred by the Lead Series B Shareholder shall be borne proportionately among all of the Investors.

SECTION 10.04. Public Announcements. At all times at or before the Closing, neither the Company nor any Investor shall issue or make any reports, statements or releases to the public with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If either party is unable to obtain the approval of its public report, statement or release from the other party and such report, statement or release is, in the opinion of legal counsel to such party, required by Law in order to discharge such party's disclosure obligations, then such party may make or issue the legally required report, statement or release and promptly furnish the other party with a copy thereof. The Company and each Investor shall also obtain prior approval by the other parties of any public announcement, including without limitation any press release, interviews with media and attendance in any press conference or related forums, to be made immediately following the Closing announcing the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

SECTION 10.05. Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and the Lead Series B Shareholder. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this section shall be binding upon each holder of any securities purchased in this Agreement at the time outstanding (including securities into which such securities are convertible), each future holder of all such securities, and the Company.

SECTION 10.06. No Third Party Beneficiary. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors or permitted assigns, and it is not the intention of the parties to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other Person.

SECTION 10.07. No Assignment; Binding Effect. Neither this Agreement nor any right, interest or obligation hereunder may be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto and any attempt to do so shall be void, except that each Investor may assign any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to its Affiliates, provided that any such Affiliate agrees in writing to be bound by all of the terms, conditions and provisions contained herein, but no such

37

assignment shall relieve such Investor of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement is binding upon, inures to the benefit of and is enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

SECTION 10.08. Enforcement of Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the failure by any party to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate this Agreement) was not performed in accordance with its specified terms or was otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

SECTION 10.09. Headings. The headings used in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and do not define or limit the provisions hereof.

SECTION 10.10. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to a contract executed and performed in such jurisdiction, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.

(b) Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any breach of this Agreement, shall be initiated, maintained and finally determined by binding arbitration under the rules of conciliation and arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the "ICC"); and the site of the arbitration, unless the parties agree otherwise, shall be in Hong Kong. The arbitral tribunal shall be appointed within thirty (30) days of the notice of dispute, and shall consist of three arbitrators, one of which shall be appointed by the Investors and one by the Company and the third by the Investors and the Company jointly; provided, however, that if the Investors and the Company shall be unable to select the third arbitrator within such thirty
(30)-day period, such third arbitrator shall be chosen by the International Court of Arbitration of the ICC. Judgment upon any award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof, or application may be made to such court for a judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. Any award pursuant to such proceeding shall be granted in U.S. Dollars. The fees and costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally by all disputing parties. The arbitrators shall award legal fees, disbursements and other expenses to the prevailing party for such amounts as determined by the arbitrators to be appropriate.

SECTION 10.11. Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future Law, and if the rights or obligations of any party hereto under this Agreement shall not be materially and adversely affected thereby, (a) such provision shall be fully severable,

38

(b) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, and (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom.

SECTION 10.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A facsimile, telecopy or other reproduction of this Agreement may be executed by one or more parties hereto and delivered by such party by facsimile or any similar electronic transmission device pursuant to which the signature of or on behalf of such party can be seen. Such execution and delivery shall be considered valid, binding and effective for all purposes.

Any Registration of Series B Registrable Securities as a result of such efforts shall be deemed to have been initiated by the Company, not by the Series B Initiating Holders under Section 7.1(b), and the original request by the Series B Initiating Holders to Register Registrable Securities shall instead be deemed a request to include the Series B Registrable Securities specified in the request in such Registration under Section 8;

(d) within one hundred eighty (180) days immediately following the effective date of any Registration Statement pertaining to the securities of the Company (other than a Registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or of securities being offered to the employees of the Group Companies pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan, a Registration relating to a corporate reorganization, a Registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a Registration Statement covering the sale of any Series A Registrable Securities or any Series B Registrable

(f) in the case of a proposed Registration under Section 7.1(b) or
Section 7.2(b), if the Company furnishes to the Series B Initiating Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for a Registration Statement to be filed in the near future.

In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder shall, if Registrable Securities held by that Holder are included in the securities as to which Registration, qualification or, compliance is being effected pursuant to this Agreement, indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers, each legal counsel and independent accountant of the Company, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by the Registration Statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other Holder, each of its officers, directors, and constituent partners, and each person controlling such other Holder, against all Damages arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular, or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Holder of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, applicable Blue Sky laws, or other applicable laws in the jurisdiction other than the United States in which the Registration occurred, applicable to such Holder and relating to action or inaction required of such Holder in connection with any Registration, qualification, or compliance, and shall reimburse the Company, such other Holders, directors, officers, partners, persons, law firms and accounting firms, underwriters or control persons for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any claim, loss, damage, liability, or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that the untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) or violation is made in that Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular, or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use in connection with the offering of securities of the Company, provided, however, that the indemnity contained in this Section 13.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Damages if settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and provided, further, that such Holder's liability under this Section 13.2 shall not exceed the Holder's proceeds (less underwriting discounts and selling commissions) from the offering of securities made in connection with such Registration, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder.

The obligations of the Holders under this Section 13.2 shall be several, and not joint and several, among the Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration.

13.3 Condition to Indemnity. The foregoing indemnity agreements of the Company and the Holders are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any violation made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the Commission at the time the Registration Statement in question becomes effective or the amended prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) (the "FINAL PROSPECTUS"), such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any person if a copy of the Final Prospectus was furnished to the indemnified party and was not furnished to the person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action is required by the Securities Act.

31

13.4 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 13 of notice of the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 13, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof and generally summarize the action. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and to assume the defense of that claim; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall be entitled to select counsel for the defense of the claim with the approval of any parties entitled to indemnification, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided further, however, that if either party reasonably determines that there may be a conflict between the position of the Company and the Holders in conducting the defense of the action, suit, or proceeding by reason of recognized claims for indemnity under this Section 13, then counsel for such party shall be entitled to conduct the defense to the extent reasonably determined by counsel to be necessary to protect the interests of such party. The failure to notify an indemnifying party promptly of the commencement of any action, if prejudicial to the ability of the indemnifying party to defend the action, shall relieve the indemnifying party, to the extent so prejudiced, of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 13, but the omission to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the party of any liability that the party may otherwise have to any indemnified party otherwise under this
Section 13.

13.5 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 13 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any Damages, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of those Damages in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in Damages as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying or the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent the statement or omission. No Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds received from the sale of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such Registration Statement, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder; and no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

13.6 Conflicts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control; provided however, that the provision in any such underwriting agreement pertaining to indemnification and contribution will be
(i) substantially similar to those contained herein, or (ii) typical of such provisions found in underwriting agreements of companies similarly situated to the Company.

32

13.7 Survival of Obligations. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 13 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement under this Agreement or otherwise. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which admits fault on behalf of the indemnified party or which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability with respect to such claim or litigation.

SECTION 14. Lock-Up. Each Holder hereby agrees that, if requested by the Company or the Underwriter's Representative (if any) in connection with the Company's initial public offering, such Holder shall not sell, contract to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, pledge, charge or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company without the prior written consent of the Company or the Underwriter's Representative, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) following the effective date of a Registration Statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act (or other applicable law in a jurisdiction other than the United States in which a Registration occurred) as may be requested by the Underwriter's Representative or pursuant to any regulations or rules of the stock exchange on which shares of the Company are listed. The obligations of Holders under this Section 14 shall be conditioned upon similar agreements being in effect with each other shareholder who is an officer, director, or five percent (5%) shareholder of the Company. The Company shall not release any of the shareholders who is an officer, director, or five percent (5%) shareholder of the Company from the lock-up without first releasing the Holders.

SECTION 15. No Action Letter. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, if: (a) the Company obtains from the Commission (or comparable regulatory agency in case of Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States) a "no-action" letter in which the Commission or such comparable regulatory agency has indicated that it will take no action if, without Registration under the Securities Act or comparable law, any Holder disposes of Registrable Securities covered by any request for Registration made under
Section 7 of this Agreement in the specific manner in which the Holder proposes to dispose of Registrable Securities included in that request (such as including, without limitation, inclusion of the Registrable Securities in an underwriting initiated by either the Company or the Holders) and that the Registrable Securities may be sold to the public without Registration in accordance with an established procedure or Rule-based "safe harbor" without unreasonable legal risk or uncertainty, then the Registrable Securities included in the request shall not be eligible for Registration under this Agreement. Any Registrable Securities not so disposed of shall be eligible for Registration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement with respect to other proposed dispositions to which this Section 15 does not apply. The Registration rights of the Holders of Registrable Securities set forth in this Agreement are conditioned upon the conversion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which Registration is sought into Ordinary Shares prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement.

SECTION 16. Reports Under the Exchange Act. With a view to making available to Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the

33

Company to the public without Registration or pursuant to a Registration on Form F-3, the Company agrees to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the public so long as the Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

(b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;

(c) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, promptly upon written request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Company), the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to reporting requirements thereunder), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time after it so qualifies); (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and any other reports and documents filed by the Company; and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the Commission which permits the selling of any such securities without Registration or pursuant to that form;

(d) with respect to a Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States, take actions similar to those set forth in paragraphs (a), (b),
(c) and (d) of this Section 16 with a view to making available to Holders the benefits of the corresponding provision or provisions of that jurisdiction's securities laws; and

(e) at the request of a Holder, use its best efforts to enable such Holder to sell the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted under Rule 144, including without limitation promptly issuing appropriate instructions to the Company's share transfer agent to remove legends from such Holder's share certificates, causing the Company's counsel to issue legal opinions to support such instructions, and if applicable promptly issuing appropriate instructions to the Company's share registrar and depository agent to convert such Holder's shares into depository receipts or similar instruments to be deposited into such Holder's brokerage account(s). The Company acknowledges that time is of the essence with respect to its obligations under this Section 16(e), and that any unreasonable delay will cause the Holders irreparable harm and constitutes a material breach of its obligations hereunder.

SECTION 17. Transfer of Rights. The rights to cause the Company to Register Registrable Securities under this Agreement may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to (i) another Holder of Registrable Securities who already possesses registration rights granted under this Agreement, (ii) a transferee or assignee acquiring five percent (5%) or more of the Ordinary Shares Equivalent, (iii) an affiliated limited partnership, a limited partner, or general partner or other Affiliates of a Holder, provided that (x) the Company is, within reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and

34

                                December 20, 2006

To:            Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited

Attn:          Conghui Liu

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the Amended Series B Preferred Share Purchase Agreement, dated December 15, 2006, as amended and restated from time to time (the "Purchase Agreement"), by and between the Investors, the Company, the Holdco and the Founder. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Immediately after but in no event later than one Business Day following the Closing, the Company shall grant a warrant to purchase its Ordinary Shares in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (the "Warrant") to each Investor other than an Advance Payment Investor (the "Warrantholder") on the terms and conditions set forth below:

(a) Number of Warrant Shares: The Company shall grant to each Warrantholder such number of Warrants that the sum of the number of Ordinary Shares that may be purchased by such Warrantholder under the Purchase Agreement and the number of Ordinary Shares into which the Warrant is exercisable (the "Warrant Shares") shall equal in value to a percentage of the equity interest in Tianwei Yingli as if the Shareholder Loan were fully converted into the Company's equity interest in Tianwei Yingli and the amount of the Capital Increase had included the full amount of the Shareholder Loan. The aggregate number of the Warrant Shares shall be calculated as follows:

Total number of the Warrant Shares to be issued = (Total Share Capital * Indifference Stake of the Shareholder Loan - Released Shares) / (1 - Indifference Stake of the Shareholder Loan), where:

(i) Total Share Capital = The total number of shares of the Company outstanding following the issuance of the Series B Preferred Shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement + the total number of Ordinary Shares issuable


pursuant to the TB Warrant (as defined in Section 2.04 of the Disclosure Schedule) + the total number of Ordinary Shares issued to or issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options reserved for officers, directors, and employees of, and consultants to, the Company and the Subsidiaries (excluding those Ordinary Shares and stock options that constitute New Securities (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement));

(ii) Released Shares = The total number of Shares issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement - (the total number of Shares held in escrow in the Escrow Account and the total number of Shares issued to the Advance Payment Investors); and

(ii) Indifference Stake of the Shareholder Loan = The effective equity interest in Tianwei Yingli represented by the Shareholder Loan / 62.13%.

The Warrant Shares allocated to each Warrant issued to each Warrantholder shall be proportionate to such Warrantholder's contribution to the aggregate Released Amount.

Illustration:

Assuming (A) the total amount of the Series B investment is US$118 million, (B) the price per Series B Preferred Shares is US$4.835, and (C) the principal amount of the Shareholder Loan is US$78.4 million (consisting of US$36 million from Baytree and US$42.4 million from other Series B Investors), then:

- The Total Share Capital would be 96,359,324 shares, which includes 16,215,098 Released Shares consisting of 7,445,708 Released Shares issued to Baytree and 8,769,390 Released Shares issued to other Series B Investors;

- The effective equity interest in Tianwei Yingli represented by the Shareholder Loan would be US$78.4 million divided by US$678 million, or approximately 11.56342%;

- The Indifference Stake of the Shareholder Loan would be 11.56342% divided by 62.13%, or approximately 18.6117%; and

- The total Warrant Shares would be (96,359,324 * 18.6117% - 16,215,098) / (1 - 18.6117%), or approximately 2,112,057 shares, and the Warrant Shares allocated to the Warrant issued to Baytree shall be proportionate to its contribution to the aggregate Released Amount.

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price shall be US$0.01 per Warrant Share.

(c) Exercise Period. Each Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole but not in part, (i) at any time after March 31, 2007 or such later date on which the

2

Lead Series B Shareholder reasonably believes, as indicated in a prior written notice to the Company and all of the Warrantholders, that the full conversion of the Shareholder Loan into an equity interest in Tianwei Yingli will not be consummated within one calendar month thereafter and (ii) prior to the earlier of (x) the closing of the Company's Qualified IPO and (y) the conversion of the full amount of the principal and accrued interest of the Shareholder Loan into Tianwei Yingli's registered capital in accordance with the Joint Venture Contract, as evidenced by a capital verification report issued by a PRC certified public accountant and an updated business license of Tianwei Yingli to such effect (the "Full Conversion"). The period during which the Warrant shall be exercisable pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1.6(c) shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Exercise Period".

(d) Conditionality. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary:

(i) in the event of the Full Conversion which occurs prior to the Company's Qualified IPO, any and all outstanding Warrants shall be cancelled, forfeited or terminated and any and all Warrant Shares issued to the Warrantholders following the exercise of any Warrants shall be returned to the Company for US$0.01 per Warrant Share for cancellation, and the Company shall cancel such Warrant Shares, in each case immediately upon the Full Conversion, and

(ii) in the event of the Full Conversion which occurs subsequent to the Company's Qualified IPO, each Warrantholder shall either (x) return to the Company any and all Warrant Shares issued to such Warrantholder following the exercise of any Warrant for US$0.01 per Warrant Share for cancellation, and the Company shall cancel such Warrant Shares, in each case immediately upon the Full Conversion or (y) pay to the Company a sum certain the amount of which shall be determined by mutual agreement between the Company and such Warrantholder as soon as reasonably practicable following the Full Conversion.

For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Warrants shall be granted if the Full Conversion occurs prior to the Closing.

(e) Registration of the Shareholder Loan. The Company shall, and each Warrantor shall procure the Company to register the Shareholder Loan with the Baoding Branch of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange in accordance with applicable Laws as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than ten Business Days following the Closing. Promptly following the repayment or conversion of the Shareholder Loan, the Company shall, and Warrantor shall procure the Company to deregister the Shareholder Loan with the Baoding Branch of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange in accordance with applicable Laws as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than ten Business Days following such repayment or conversion.

This Side Letter Agreement may not be amended or waived except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. This Side Letter Agreement shall

3

2. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS.

2.1 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS.

(a) This Warrant and the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant are not assignable or transferable except this Warrant (and all rights hereunder) and the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant may be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, to an Affiliate of the Warrantholder, which shall thereafter be deemed to be the Warrantholder for all purposes herein, provided, however, the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant may not be transferred or assigned in whole or in part without compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws by the transferor and transferee.

(b) The Warrantholder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Warrantholder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Warrantholder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a violation of the Securities Act or any state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the Warrant Shares so purchased are being acquired solely for the Warrantholder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale. The Warrantholder represents and warrants to the Company that the Warrantholder is an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act. The Warrantholder understands that the Warrant and any Warrant Shares acquired upon exercise of this Warrant are being offered and sold to the Warrantholder in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Warrantholder's compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Warrantholder set forth herein in order to

-3-

determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Warrantholder to initially acquire the Warrant Shares.

2.2 RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. This Warrant shall (and each Warrant issued in substitution for this Warrant issued pursuant to Section 4 shall) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

"THIS WARRANT AND ANY SHARES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS, THE WARRANT AND ANY SHARES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."

Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 2, each stock certificate for Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant and each stock certificate issued upon the direct or indirect transfer of any such Warrant Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

"THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS, THE SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrantholder may require the Company to issue a stock certificate for Warrant Shares without a legend if (i) such Warrant Shares, as the case may be, have been registered for resale under the Securities Act or sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor rule thereto) or (ii) the Warrantholder has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required with respect to such Warrant Shares. If either condition in the foregoing sentence has been satisfied, the Company shall, without expense (except for the payment of any applicable transfer tax) and as expeditiously as possible, issue a new stock certificate not bearing such legend.

-4-

2.3 REGISTRATION. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to constitute "Registrable Securities" defined in the Second Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement, dated as of December 15, 2006 (the "Shareholders Agreement"), among the Company, Yingli Power Holding Company Ltd., Mr. Liansheng Miao and the investors listed on Schedule I attached thereto. The Warrantholder shall be entitled to all registration rights contained in the Shareholders Agreement in respect of the Warrant Shares.

2.4 SPLIT-UP, COMBINATION AND EXCHANGE OF WARRANTS. This Warrant may be split up, combined or exchanged for another Warrant or Warrants containing the same terms to purchase a like aggregate number of Warrant Shares. If the Warrantholder desires to split up, combine or exchange this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall make such request in writing delivered to the Company and shall surrender to the Company this Warrant and any other Warrants to be so split-up, combined or exchanged. Upon any such surrender for a split-up, combination or exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver to the person entitled thereto a Warrant or Warrants, as the case may be, as so requested. The Company shall not be required to effect any split-up, combination or exchange which will result in the issuance of a Warrant entitling the Warrantholder to purchase upon exercise a fraction of an Ordinary Share or a fractional Warrant. The Company may require such Warrantholder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any split-up, combination or exchange of Warrants.

3. RESERVATION OF SHARES

The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares which are issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof, other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue. The Company further covenants and agrees that, during the Exercise Period, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved, and keep available free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of Ordinary Shares to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.

4. EXCHANGE, LOSS OR DESTRUCTION OF WARRANT.

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of such bond or indemnification as the Company may reasonably require, and, in the case of such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor. The term "Warrant" as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Warrants issued in substitution or exchange for this Warrant.

5. OWNERSHIP OF WARRANT.

The Company may deem and treat the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

-5-

6. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS.

6.1 The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

(a) Share Dividends, Share Splits, or Share Subdivisions. If at any time prior to the exercise of this Warrant in full (i) the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of any share dividend payable in Ordinary Shares or the Company's assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings) or (ii) the number of Ordinary Shares shall have been increased by a subdivision or split-up of Ordinary Shares, then, on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive such dividend (without payment of additional consideration for such dividend), or immediately after the effective date of subdivision or split-up, as the case may be, the number of Ordinary Shares to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be increased so that the Warrantholder will be entitled to receive the number of Ordinary Shares that such Warrantholder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph (f).

(b) Combination of Stock. If at any time prior to the exercise of this Warrant in full the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding shall have been decreased by a combination of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, then, immediately after the effective date of such combination, the number of Ordinary Shares to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be decreased so that the Warrantholder thereafter will be entitled to receive the number of Ordinary Shares that such Warrantholder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph (f).

(c) Preservation of Purchase Rights in Certain Transactions. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding Ordinary Shares (other than a subdivision or combination of the outstanding Ordinary Shares and other than a change in the par value of the Ordinary Shares) or in case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than merger with a subsidiary in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding Ordinary Shares of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) or in the case of any sale, lease, transfer or conveyance to another corporation of the property and assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Company shall, as a condition precedent to such transaction cause such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, to execute with the Warrantholder an agreement granting the Warrantholder the right thereafter, upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action, to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which the Warrantholder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action. In the event that in connection with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, additional Ordinary Shares shall be issued in exchange, conversion, substitution or payment, in whole or in part, for, or of, a security of Company other than Ordinary Shares, any such issue shall be treated as an issue of Ordinary Shares covered by the provisions of Article 6. The provisions of this Section 6.1 shall similarly

-6-

apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

(d) Fractional Shares. No fractional Ordinary Shares or scrip shall be issued to any Warrantholder in connection with the exercise of this Warrant. Instead of any fractional Ordinary Shares that would otherwise be issuable to such Warrantholder, the Company will pay to such Warrantholder a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to that fractional interest of the fair market value of one Ordinary Share as of the date of exercise as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.

(e) Carryover. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, no adjustment shall be made to the number of Ordinary Shares to be delivered to the Warrantholder (or to the Exercise Price) if such adjustment represents less than 1% of the number of shares to be so delivered, but any lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount to 1% or more of the number of shares to be so delivered.

(f) Exercise Price Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided, the Exercise Price payable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately thereafter, provided that the Exercise Price shall not be less than the par value of the Ordinary Share.

(g) No Duplicate Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, in no event will an adjustment be made under the provisions of this Section 6 to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price for any event if an adjustment having substantially the same effect to the Warrantholder as any adjustment that otherwise would be made under the provisions of this Section 6 is made by the Company for any such event to the number of Ordinary Shares (or other securities) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

6.2 NO ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS. Except as provided in Section 6.1, no adjustment in respect of any dividends shall be made during the term of the Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant.

6.3 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly mail by first class, postage prepaid, to the Warrantholder, notice of such adjustment or adjustments and a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company setting forth the number of Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made.

7. NOTICES OF CORPORATE ACTION.

In the event of:

-7-

(a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or

(b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any Change of Control or any redemption or conversion of outstanding Ordinary Shares, or

(c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company,

the Company will mail to the Warrantholder a notice specifying (i) the date or expected date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right and the amount and character of any such dividend, distribution or right, (ii) the date or expected date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, Change of Control, redemption or conversion of Ordinary Shares, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Ordinary Shares (or other securities) shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares (or other securities) for the securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, Change of Control, redemption or conversion of Ordinary Shares, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up and (iii) that in the event of a Change of Control, the Warrants are exercisable immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control. Such notice shall be mailed at least twenty (20) days prior to the date therein specified, in the case of any date referred to in the foregoing subdivision (i), and at least 20 days prior to the date therein specified, in the case of the date referred to in the foregoing subdivision (ii).

2. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS.

2.1 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS.

(a) This Warrant and the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant are not assignable or transferable except this Warrant (and all rights hereunder) and the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant may be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, to an Affiliate of the Warrantholder, which shall thereafter be deemed to be the Warrantholder for all purposes herein, provided, however, the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant may not be transferred or assigned in whole or in part without compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws by the transferor and transferee.

(b) The Warrantholder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Warrantholder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Warrantholder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a violation of the Securities Act or any state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory to the Company, that the Warrant Shares so purchased are being acquired solely for the Warrantholder's own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale. The Warrantholder represents and warrants to the Company that the Warrantholder is an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act. The Warrantholder understands that the Warrant and any Warrant Shares acquired upon exercise of this Warrant are being offered and sold to the Warrantholder in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Warrantholder's compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Warrantholder set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Warrantholder to initially acquire the Warrant Shares.

2.2 RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. This Warrant shall (and each Warrant issued in substitution for this Warrant issued pursuant to Section 4 shall) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

"THIS WARRANT AND ANY SHARES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS, THE WARRANT AND ANY SHARES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

-3-

UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."

Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 2, each stock certificate for Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant and each stock certificate issued upon the direct or indirect transfer of any such Warrant Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

"THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS, THE SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrantholder may require the Company to issue a stock certificate for Warrant Shares without a legend if (i) such Warrant Shares, as the case may be, have been registered for resale under the Securities Act or sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor rule thereto) or (ii) the Warrantholder has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required with respect to such Warrant Shares. If either condition in the foregoing sentence has been satisfied, the Company shall, without expense (except for the payment of any applicable transfer tax) and as expeditiously as possible, issue a new stock certificate not bearing such legend.

2.3 REGISTRATION. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to constitute "Registrable Securities" defined in the Second Amended and Restated Shareholders Agreement, dated as of December 15, 2006 (the "Shareholders Agreement"), among the Company, Yingli Power Holding Company Ltd., Mr. Liansheng Miao and the investors listed on Schedule I attached thereto. In respect of the Warrant Shares, the Warrantholder shall be entitled to the registration rights to which the Series B Shareholders (as defined in the Shareholder Agreement) are entitled under the Shareholders Agreement.

2.4 SPLIT-UP, COMBINATION AND EXCHANGE OF WARRANTS. This Warrant may be split up, combined or exchanged for another Warrant or Warrants containing the same terms to purchase a like aggregate number of Warrant Shares. If the Warrantholder desires to split up, combine or exchange this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall make such request in writing delivered to the Company and shall surrender to the Company this Warrant and any other Warrants to be so split-up, combined or exchanged. Upon any such surrender for a split-up, combination or exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver to the person entitled thereto a Warrant or Warrants, as the case may be, as so requested. The Company shall not be required to effect any split-up, combination or exchange which will result in the

-4-

issuance of a Warrant entitling the Warrantholder to purchase upon exercise a fraction of an Ordinary Share or a fractional Warrant. The Company may require such Warrantholder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any split-up, combination or exchange of Warrants.

3. RESERVATION OF SHARES

The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares which are issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof, other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue. The Company further covenants and agrees that, during the Exercise Period, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved, and keep available free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of Ordinary Shares to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.

4. EXCHANGE, LOSS OR DESTRUCTION OF WARRANT.

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of such bond or indemnification as the Company may reasonably require, and, in the case of such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor. The term "Warrant" as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Warrants issued in substitution or exchange for this Warrant.

5. OWNERSHIP OF WARRANT.

The Company may deem and treat the person in whose name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

6. CERTAIN ADJUSTMENTS.

6.1 The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows:

(a) Share Dividends, Share Splits, or Share Subdivisions. If at any time prior to the exercise of this Warrant in full (i) the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of any share dividend payable in Ordinary Shares or the Company's assets (excluding cash dividends paid or payable solely out of retained earnings) or (ii) the number of Ordinary Shares shall have been increased by a subdivision or split-up of Ordinary Shares, then, on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive such dividend (without payment of additional consideration for such dividend), or immediately after the effective date of subdivision or split-up, as the case may be, the number of Ordinary Shares to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be increased so that the Warrantholder will be entitled to receive the number of Ordinary Shares that such Warrantholder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph (f).

-5-

(b) Combination of Stock. If at any time prior to the exercise of this Warrant in full the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding shall have been decreased by a combination of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, then, immediately after the effective date of such combination, the number of Ordinary Shares to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be decreased so that the Warrantholder thereafter will be entitled to receive the number of Ordinary Shares that such Warrantholder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph (f).

(c) Preservation of Purchase Rights in Certain Transactions. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding Ordinary Shares (other than a subdivision or combination of the outstanding Ordinary Shares and other than a change in the par value of the Ordinary Shares) or in case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than merger with a subsidiary in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding Ordinary Shares of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) or in the case of any sale, lease, transfer or conveyance to another corporation of the property and assets of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Company shall, as a condition precedent to such transaction cause such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, to execute with the Warrantholder an agreement granting the Warrantholder the right thereafter, upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action, to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which the Warrantholder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action. In the event that in connection with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, additional Ordinary Shares shall be issued in exchange, conversion, substitution or payment, in whole or in part, for, or of, a security of Company other than Ordinary Shares, any such issue shall be treated as an issue of Ordinary Shares covered by the provisions of Article 6. The provisions of this Section 6.1 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances.

(d) Fractional Shares. No fractional Ordinary Shares or scrip shall be issued to any Warrantholder in connection with the exercise of this Warrant. Instead of any fractional Ordinary Shares that would otherwise be issuable to such Warrantholder, the Company will pay to such Warrantholder a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to that fractional interest of the fair market value of one Ordinary Share as of the date of exercise as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.

(e) Carryover. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, no adjustment shall be made to the number of Ordinary Shares to be delivered to the Warrantholder (or to the Exercise Price) if such adjustment represents less than 1% of the number of shares to be so delivered, but any lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which together with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount to 1% or more of the number of shares to be so delivered.

-6-

(f) Exercise Price Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided, the Exercise Price payable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately thereafter, provided that the Exercise Price shall not be less than the par value of the Ordinary Share.

(g) No Duplicate Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, in no event will an adjustment be made under the provisions of this Section 6 to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price for any event if an adjustment having substantially the same effect to the Warrantholder as any adjustment that otherwise would be made under the provisions of this Section 6 is made by the Company for any such event to the number of Ordinary Shares (or other securities) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

6.2 NO ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS. Except as provided in Section 6.1, no adjustment in respect of any dividends shall be made during the term of the Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant.

6.3 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly mail by first class, postage prepaid, to the Warrantholder, notice of such adjustment or adjustments and a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company setting forth the number of Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made.

7. NOTICES OF CORPORATE ACTION.

In the event of:

(a) any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or

(b) any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any Change of Control or any redemption or conversion of outstanding Ordinary Shares, or

(c) any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company,

Yingli Green Energy Holding
Company Limited
No. 3055 Middle Fuxing Road
Baoding 071051
People's Republic of China

Dear Sirs,

YINGLI GREEN ENERGY HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED (THE "COMPANY")

We have acted as special Cayman legal counsel to the Company in connection with the public offering on the New York Stock Exchange of American Depositary Shares representing ordinary shares issued by the Company (the "Shares") and the offer and sale of such number of ordinary shares of the Company (the "Issued Shares") by certain selling shareholder(s) of the Company as described in the prospectus contained in the Company's registration statement on Form F-1 (the "Registration Statement" which term does not include any exhibits thereto) filed by the Company under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").

For the purposes of giving this opinion, we have examined and relied upon copies of the following documents:

(i) the Registration Statement; and

(ii) a draft of the prospectus (the "Prospectus") contained in the Registration Statement.

We have also reviewed and relied upon (1) the memorandum of association and the articles of association of the Company, (2) copies of written resolutions passed by all the directors of the Company on May 11, 2007,(3) a copy of the register of members of the Company, and (4) such other documents and made such enquiries as to questions of law as we have deemed necessary in order to render the opinion set forth below.

1 of 2

We have assumed (i) the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures, stamps and seals and the conformity to the originals of all copies of documents (whether or not certified) examined by us and the authenticity and completeness of the originals from which such copies were taken; and (ii) the accuracy and completeness of all factual representations made in the Prospectus and Registration Statement and other documents reviewed by us.

We have made no investigation of and express no opinion in relation to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands. This opinion is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and practice in the Cayman Islands.

On the basis of and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

(1) The Company is duly incorporated and existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands.

(2) The issue of the Shares has been duly authorised, and when the Shares have been issued, delivered and paid for in the manner described in and pursuant to the terms of the Prospectus and Registration Statement will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable (meaning that no further sums are required to be paid by the holders thereof in connection with the issue or holding of such shares to the Company or any third party).

(3) The Issued Shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the references to us under the headings "Taxation", "Enforceability of Civil Liabilities" and "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act, or the Rules and Regulations of the Commission thereunder.

May 11, 2007

YINGLI GREEN ENERGY HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED
No. 3055 Middle Fuxing Road
Baoding, Hebei Province,
People's Republic of China

Dear Sirs,

We are lawyers licensed to practice the law of the People's Republic of China (the "PRC") and are qualified to provide legal advices on the law of the PRC. For the purposes of this legal opinion, the "PRC" shall not include Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Macao Special Administrative Region and Taiwan.

We have acted as legal counsel on the law of the PRC to Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited (the "Company"), a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, in connection with (i) the Company's Registration Statement on Form F-1, including all amendments or supplements thereto (the "Registration Statement"), filed with Securities and Exchange Commission under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relating to the offering by the Company of American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"), and (ii) the Company's proposed listing of its ADSs on the New York Stock Exchange (the "Listing"). We have been requested to give this opinion as to the matters set forth below.

In such capacity, we have examined the documents listed in Schedule I attached hereto for the purpose of this opinion. In our examination of these documents, we have assumed, with your consent, that (a) all documents submitted to us by the Company as copies conform to their originals and all documents submitted to us by the Company as originals are authentic; (b) all signatures, seals and chops on such documents are genuine; and (c) all facts and information stated or given in such documents are true and correct.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

1. On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, namely, the Ministry of Commerce ("MOC"), the State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission ("SASAC"), the State Administration for Taxation, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the China Securities Regulatory Commission ("CSRC"), and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange ("SAFE"), jointly promulgated the Rules on the Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (the "M&A Rules"), which became effective on September 8, 2006.

2

The M&A Rules require that a special purpose vehicle ("SPV"), defined as an offshore company directly or indirectly controlled by PRC domestic companies or natural person(s) and formed for the purposes of achieving overseas listing of interests in domestic companies actually owned by such PRC domestic companies or natural person(s), shall obtain an approval of the CSRC prior to the listing of its securities on an overseas stock exchange.

2. On September 21, 2006, pursuant to the M&A Rules and other PRC laws and regulations, the CSRC promulgated on its official website relevant guidelines with respect to the procedures and documents required in connection with the application for approvals on listing and trading of domestic enterprises' securities on overseas stock exchanges (the "Administrative Permit Guidelines"), which provide a list of application materials with respect to the listing on overseas stock exchanges by SPVs.

3. The Company acquired a 51% equity interest in Baoding Tianwei Yingli New Energy Resources Co., Ltd. ("Tianwei Yingli") with cash consideration in accordance with applicable PRC laws and regulations and obtained all necessary approvals from PRC regulatory agencies, including the local counterparts of the SASAC, the MOFCOM and the SAFE, before September 8, 2006, the date on which the M&A Rules took effect. The Company subsequently increased the percentage of the equity interest it holds in Tianwei Yingli to 62.13% by subscribing for additional registered capital of Tianwei Yingli.

4. The Administrative Permit Guidelines include a principal approval letter from the MOC with respect to the acquisition of domestic companies by an SPV. Given that the principal approval letter from the MOC is a new requirement under the M&A Rules, our understanding is that as an SPV having completed its acquisition of the 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli with cash prior to the effectiveness of the M&A Rules, the Company is not required to obtain such a principal approval letter from the MOC.

5. Based on our understanding of current PRC laws, the M&A Rules and the Administrative Permit Guidelines, we are of the opinion that:

(1) The CSRC has jurisdiction over the Offering and the Listing;

(2) Given that the Company had completed its acquisition of the 51% equity interest in Tianwei Yingli before September 8, 2006, the date on which the M&A Rules took effect, it is not necessary for the Company to submit application to and obtain the approval from the CSRC in connection with the listing and subsequent trading of the Company's ADSs on the New York Stock Exchange; and

3

(3) If an application for the CSRC approval is required from the Company, the Company has a justifiable basis to request a waiver from the CSRC, if and when such procedures are established to obtain such a waiver.

This opinion is rendered on the basis of the PRC law and regulatory practice effective as of the date hereof and there is no assurance that any of such laws or regulatory practice will not be changed, amended or replaced in the immediate future or in the longer term with or without retrospective effect.

We hereby consent to the use of our name under the captions "Risk Factors", "Enforceability of Civil Liabilities", "Restructuring", "Related Party Transactions", "PRC Government Regulations" and "Legal Matters" in the Registration Statement, originally filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We hereby further consent to the use of this opinion in, and the filing hereof as an exhibit to, the above-mentioned Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the regulations promulgated thereunder.

Yours faithfully

For the purposes of giving this opinion, we have examined and relied upon copies of the following documents:

(i) the Registration Statement to be filed by the Company under the Securities Act with the Commission on, as amended; and

(ii) a draft of the prospectus (the "Prospectus") contained in the Registration Statement.

We have also reviewed and relied upon (1) the memorandum of association and the articles of association of the Company, (2) a copy of an undertaking from the Governor-in-Council of the Cayman Islands under the Tax Concessions Law (1999 Revision) dated 15 August, 2006, and (3) such other documents and made such enquiries as to questions of law as we have deemed necessary in order to render the opinion set forth below.

We have assumed (i) the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures, stamps and seals and the conformity to the originals of all copies of documents (whether or not certified) examined by us and the authenticity and completeness of the originals from which such copies were taken; (ii) that where a document has been examined by us in draft form, it will be or has been executed and/or filed in the form of that draft, and where a number of

1 of 2

drafts of a document have been examined by us all changes thereto have been marked or otherwise drawn to our attention, (iii) the accuracy and completeness of all factual representations made in the Prospectus and Registration Statement and other documents reviewed by us, and (iv) that there is no provision of the law of any jurisdiction, other than the Cayman Islands, which would have any implication in relation to the opinions expressed herein.

We have made no investigation of and express no opinion in relation to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands. This opinion is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and practice in the Cayman Islands. This opinion is issued solely for the purpose of the filing of the Registration Statement and the offering of the Shares by the Company and is not to be relied upon in respect of any other matter.

On the basis of and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the statements relating to certain Cayman Islands tax matters set forth under the caption "Taxation - Cayman Islands taxation" in the Prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement, to the extent that they constitute statements of Cayman Islands law, are accurate in all material respects and that such statements constitute our opinion.

We hereby consent to the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of this letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which the Prospectus is a part, and the reference to us under the captions "Taxation", "Legal Matters" and "Enforceability of Civil Liabilities" in the Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement. In giving the foregoing consent, we do not admit that we are experts within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act or that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under section 7 of the Securities Act or the Rules and Regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

may be issued for the purpose of granting Options. The Shares may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares, or Shares purchased on the open market. The issuance of Shares or the payment of cash upon the exercise of an Award or in consideration of the cancellation or termination of an Award shall reduce the total number of Shares available under the Plan, as applicable. Shares which are subject to Awards which terminate or lapse without the payment of consideration may be granted again under the Plan.

4. ADMINISTRATION

The Plan shall be administered by the Committee, which may delegate its duties and powers in whole or in part to any subcommittee thereof consisting solely of at least two individuals who are intended to qualify as "Non-Employee Directors" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Act (or any successor rule thereto) and an "independent director" as defined in Rule 4200 of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules (or any successor rule thereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the date on which any equity interests of the Company, including, without limitation, the Shares, have been registered under the Act or any other securities laws, members of the current Board, as of the date hereof, may approve and authorize the Company to make an Award to other members of the Board (who shall not vote with respect to such Award) under the Plan, and, prior to such registration, the current Board may approve and authorize the Company to make Awards under the Plan to any other employees, directors or consultants of the Company or any of its Affiliates. Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be made under the Plan in assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by the Company or its affiliates or a company acquired by the Company or with which the Company combines. The number of Shares underlying such substitute awards shall be counted against the aggregate number of Shares available for Awards under the Plan. The Committee is authorized to interpret the Plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make any other determinations that it deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan in the manner and to the extent the Committee deems necessary or desirable. Any decision of the Committee in the interpretation and administration of the Plan, as described herein, shall lie within its sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties concerned (including, but not limited to, Participants and their beneficiaries or successors). The Committee shall have the full power and authority to establish the terms and conditions of any Award consistent with the provisions of the Plan and to waive any such terms and conditions at any time (including, without limitation, accelerating or waiving any vesting conditions). The Committee shall require payment of any amount it may determine to be necessary to withhold for any applicable taxes as a result of the exercise, grant or vesting of an Award. Unless the Committee specifies otherwise, the Participant may elect to pay a portion or all of such withholding taxes by (a) delivery in Shares or (b) having Shares withheld by the Company from any Shares that would have otherwise been received by the Participant.

5. LIMITATIONS

No Award may be granted under the Plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, but Awards theretofore granted may extend beyond that date.

6. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS


5

Options granted under the Plan shall be, as determined by the Committee, non-qualified or incentive stock options for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as evidenced by the related Award agreements, and shall be subject to the foregoing and the following terms and conditions and to such other terms and conditions, not inconsistent therewith, as the Committee shall determine:

(a) Option Price. The Option Price per Share shall be determined by the Committee, but shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date an Option is granted.

(b) Exercisability. Options granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time and upon such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee, but in no event shall an Option be exercisable more than ten years after the date it is granted.

(c) Exercise of Options. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in an Award agreement, an Option may be exercised for all, or from time to time any part, of the Shares for which it is then exercisable. For purposes of Section 6 of the Plan, the exercise date of an Option shall be the later of the date a notice of exercise is received by the Company and, if applicable, the date payment is received by the Company pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) in the following sentence. The purchase price for the Shares as to which an Option is exercised (which shall not be less than the par value of the Shares) shall be paid to the Company in full at the time of exercise at the election of the Participant (i) in cash or its equivalent (e.g., by check), (ii) to the extent permitted by the Committee, in Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Option Price for the Shares being purchased and satisfying such other requirements as may be imposed by the Committee; provided, that such Shares have been held by the Participant for no less than six months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee in order to avoid adverse accounting treatment applying generally accepted accounting principles), (iii) partly in cash and, to the extent permitted by the Committee, partly in such Shares or (iv) if there is a public market for the Shares at such time, through the delivery of irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell Shares obtained upon the exercise of the Option and to deliver promptly to the Company an amount out of the proceeds of such Sale equal to the aggregate Option Price for the Shares being purchased. No Participant shall have any rights to dividends or other rights of a stockholder with respect to Shares subject to an Option until the Participant has given written notice of exercise of the Option, paid in full for such Shares and, if applicable, has satisfied any other conditions imposed by the Committee pursuant to the Plan.

(d) ISOs. The Committee may grant Options under the Plan that are intended to be ISOs. Such ISOs shall comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code (or any successor section thereto). No ISO may be granted to any Participant who at the time of such grant, owns more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary, unless (i) the Option Price for such ISO is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the ISO is granted and (ii) the date on which such ISO terminates is a date not later than the day preceding the fifth anniversary of the date on which the ISO is granted. Any Participant who disposes of Shares acquired upon the exercise of an


6

ISO either (i) within two years after the date of grant of such ISO or
(ii) within one year after the transfer of such Shares to the Participant, shall notify the Company of such disposition and of the amount realized upon such disposition. All Options granted under the Plan are intended to be nonqualified stock options, unless the applicable Award agreement expressly states that the Option is intended to be an ISO. If an Option is intended to be an ISO, and if for any reason such Option (or portion thereof) shall not qualify as an ISO, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, such Option (or portion thereof) shall be regarded as a nonqualified stock option granted under the Plan; provided that such Option (or portion thereof) otherwise complies with the Plan's requirements relating to nonqualified stock options. In no event shall any member of the Committee, the Company or any of its Affiliates (or their respective employees, officers or directors) have any liability to any Participant (or any other Person) due to the failure of an Option to qualify for any reason as an ISO.

(e) Attestation. Wherever in this Plan or any agreement evidencing an Award a Participant is permitted to pay the exercise price of an Option or taxes relating to the exercise of an Option by delivering Shares, the Participant may, subject to procedures satisfactory to the Committee, satisfy such delivery requirement by presenting proof of beneficial ownership of such Shares, in which case the Company shall treat the Option as exercised without further payment and shall withhold such number of Shares from the Shares acquired by the exercise of the Option.

7. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

(a) Grants. The Committee also may grant (i) a Stock Appreciation Right independent of an Option or (ii) a Stock Appreciation Right in connection with an Option, or a portion thereof. A Stock Appreciation Right granted pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence (A) may be granted at the time the related Option is granted or at any time prior to the exercise or cancellation of the related Option, (B) shall cover the same number of Shares covered by an Option (or such lesser number of Shares as the Committee may determine) and (C) shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as such Option except for such additional limitations as are contemplated by this Section 7 (or such additional limitations as may be included in an Award agreement).

(b) Terms. The exercise price per Share of a Stock Appreciation Right shall be an amount determined by the Committee but in no event shall such amount be less than the greater of (i) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Stock Appreciation Right is granted or, in the case of a Stock Appreciation Right granted in conjunction with an Option, or a portion thereof, the Option Price of the related Option and (ii) the minimum amount permitted by Applicable Laws. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted independent of an Option shall entitle a Participant upon exercise to an amount equal to (i) the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value on the exercise date of one Share over (B) the exercise price per Share, times (ii) the number of Shares covered by the Stock Appreciation Right. Each Stock


7

Appreciation Right granted in conjunction with an Option, or a portion thereof, shall entitle a Participant to surrender to the Company the unexercised Option, or any portion thereof, and to receive from the Company in exchange therefore an amount equal to (i) the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value on the exercise date of one Share over (B) the Option Price per Share, times (ii) the number of Shares covered by the Option, or portion thereof, which is surrendered. The date a notice of exercise is received by the Company shall be the exercise date. Payment shall be made in Shares or in cash, or partly in Shares and partly in cash (any such Shares valued at such Fair Market Value), all as shall be determined by the Committee. Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised from time to time upon actual receipt by the Company of written notice of exercise stating the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is being exercised. No fractional Shares will be issued in payment for Stock Appreciation Rights, but instead cash will be paid for a fraction or, if the Committee should so determine, the number of Shares will be rounded downward to the next whole Share.

(c) Limitations. The Committee may impose, in its discretion, such conditions upon the exercisability or transferability of Stock Appreciation Rights as it may deem fit.

(d) Limited Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may grant LSARs that are exercisable upon the occurrence of specified contingent events. Such LSARs may provide for a different method of determining appreciation, may specify that payment will be made only in cash and may provide that any related Awards are not exercisable while such LSARs are exercisable. Unless the context otherwise requires, whenever the term "Stock Appreciation Right" is used in the Plan, such term shall include LSARs.

8. OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS

The Committee, in its sole discretion, may grant or sell Awards of Shares, Awards of restricted Shares and Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on the Fair Market Value of, Shares ("Other Stock-Based Awards"). Such Other Stock-Based Awards shall be in such form, and dependent on such conditions, as the Committee shall determine, including, without limitation, the right to receive, or vest with respect to, one or more Shares (or the equivalent cash value of such Shares) upon the completion of a specified period of service, the occurrence of an event and/or the attainment of performance objectives. Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted alone or in addition to any other Awards granted under the Plan. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall determine to whom and when Other Stock-Based Awards will be made, the number of Shares to be awarded under (or otherwise related to) such Other Stock-Based Awards; whether such Other Stock-Based Awards shall be settled in cash, Shares or a combination of cash and Shares; and all other terms and conditions of such Awards (including, without limitation, the vesting provisions thereof and provisions ensuring that all Shares so awarded and issued shall be fully paid and non-assessable).

9. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CERTAIN EVENTS


8

Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Plan to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to all Awards granted under the Plan:

(a) Generally. In the event of any change in the outstanding Shares after the Effective Date by reason of any Share dividend or split, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, combination or transaction or exchange of Shares or other corporate exchange, or any distribution to shareholders of Shares other than regular cash dividends or any transaction similar to the foregoing, the Committee in its sole discretion and without liability to any person shall make such substitution or adjustment, if any, as it deems to be equitable, as to (i) the number or kind of Shares or other securities issued or reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan or pursuant to outstanding Awards, (ii) the maximum number of Shares for which Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted during a calendar year to any Participant, (iii) the maximum number of Shares for which Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted during a calendar year to any Participant, (iv) the maximum amount of an Award that is valued in whole or in part by reference to, or is otherwise based on the Fair Market Value of, Shares that may be granted during a calendar year to any Participant, (v) the Option Price or exercise price of any stock appreciation right and/or (vi) any other affected terms of such Awards.

(b) Change in Control. In the event of a Change of Control after the Effective Date, (i) if determined by the Committee in the applicable Award agreement or otherwise, any outstanding Awards then held by Participants which are unexercisable or otherwise unvested or subject to lapse restrictions shall automatically be deemed exercisable or otherwise vested or no longer subject to lapse restrictions, as the case may be, as of immediately prior to such Change of Control and
(ii) the Committee may, but shall not be obligated to, (A) cancel such Awards for fair value (as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee) which, in the case of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, may equal the excess, if any, of value of the consideration to be paid in the Change of Control transaction to holders of the same number of Shares subject to such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights (or, if no consideration is paid in any such transaction, the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights) over the aggregate exercise price of such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights or (B) provide for the issuance of substitute Awards that will substantially preserve the otherwise applicable terms of any affected Awards previously granted hereunder as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion or (C) provide that for a period of at least 15 days prior to the Change of Control, such Options shall be exercisable as to all shares subject thereto and that upon the occurrence of the Change of Control, such Options shall terminate and be of no further force and effect.

10. NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT OR AWARDS

The granting of an Award under the Plan shall impose no obligation on the Company or any Subsidiary to continue the Employment of a Participant and shall not lessen or


9

affect the Company's or Subsidiary's right to terminate the Employment of such Participant. No Participant or other Person shall have any claim to be granted any Award, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants, or holders or beneficiaries of Awards. The terms and conditions of Awards and the Committee's determinations and interpretations with respect thereto need not be the same with respect to each Participant (whether or not such Participants are similarly situated).

11. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

The Plan shall be binding on all successors and assigns of the Company and a Participant, including without limitation, the estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator or trustee of such estate, or any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy or representative of the Participant's creditors.

12. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF AWARDS

Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, an Award shall not be transferable or assignable by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. An Award exercisable after the death of a Participant may be exercised by the legatees, personal representatives or distributees of the Participant.

13. AMENDMENTS OR TERMINATION

The Board may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made, (a) without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, if such action would (except as is provided in
Section 9 of the Plan), increase the total number of Shares reserved for the purposes of the Plan or change the maximum number of Shares for which Awards may be granted to any Participant or (b) without the consent of a Participant, if such action would diminish any of the rights of the Participant under any Award theretofore granted to such Participant under the Plan; provided, however, that the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as it deems necessary to permit the granting of Awards meeting the requirements of any Applicable Laws.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent applicable, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Plan and Awards issued hereunder shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretative guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Committee determines that any amounts payable hereunder will be taxable to a Participant under Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance prior to payment to such Participant of such amount, the Company may (a) adopt such amendments to the Plan and Awards and appropriate policies and procedures, including amendments and policies with retroactive effect, that the Committee determines necessary or appropriate to preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided by the Plan and Awards hereunder and/or (b) take such other actions as the Committee determines necessary or appropriate to comply with the requirements of
Section 409A of the Code.

14. JURISDICTIONS


10

In order to assure the viability of Awards granted to Participants employed in various jurisdictions, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, may provide for such special terms as it may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom applicable in the jurisdiction in which the Participant resides or is employed. Moreover, the Committee may approve such supplements to, amendments, restatements, or alternative versions of the Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such purposes without thereby affecting the terms of the Plan as in effect for any other purpose; provided, however, that no such supplements, restatements or alternative versions shall increase the Share limitation contained in Section 3 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted that would violate any Applicable Laws.

15. DISTRIBUTION OF SHARES

The obligation of the Company to make payments in Shares pursuant to an Award shall be subject to all Applicable Laws and to any such approvals by government agencies as may be required. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Shares distributed pursuant to an Award may consists, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares, treasury Shares or Shares purchased on the open market. Additionally, in the discretion of the Committee, American Depository Shares may be distributed in lieu of Shares in settlement of any Award, provided that the American Depository Shares shall be of equal value to the Shares that would have otherwise been distributed. If the number of Shares represented by an American Depository Share is other than on a one-to-one basis, the limitations of Section 3 shall be adjusted to reflect the distribution of American Depository Shares in lieu of Shares.

16. TAXES

No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Participant until such Participant has made arrangements acceptable to the Committee for the satisfaction of any income and employment tax withholding obligations under any Applicable Laws, in particular, the tax laws, rules, regulations and government orders of Singapore, the People's Republic of China or the U.S. federal, state or other local tax laws, as applicable. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including the Participant's payroll tax obligations, if any) required to be withheld under any Applicable Laws with respect to any Award issued to the Participant hereunder. The Committee may in its discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow a Participant to elect to have the Company withhold Shares otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the return of Shares) having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to be withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the number of Shares which may be withheld with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award (or which may be repurchased form the Participant of such Award after such Shares were acquired by the Participant from the Company) in order to satisfy the Participant's federal, state, local and other income and payroll tax liabilities with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of the Award shall, unless specifically approved by the Committee, be limited to the number of Shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and other income tax any payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such taxable income.

17. CHOICE OF LAW

Any increase or decrease of the registered capital of the JV Company shall be resolved unanimously by all the directors present at a meeting of the Board.

-10-

Under the above circumstances, the Board shall have the JV Company valued by an independent asset valuer in accordance with the internationally accepted valuation method and the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC. Both Parties agree that the percentage of the equity interest held by Party B in the JV Company following the capital increase shall be calculated according to the following formula:

Percentage of Party B's equity interest in the JV Company immediately after the capital increase = Percentage of Party B's equity interest in the JV Company immediately before the capital increase + Amount of Party B's contribution x (1 - Percentage of Party B's equity interest in the JV Company immediately before the capital increase) / Fair market value of the JV Company.

The Parties hereby confirm that, upon the completion of the private placements by Party B, the "fair market value of the JV Company" in the above formula shall be the expected total value of the JV Company immediately following Party B's contribution to the increased registered capital of the JV Company with the proceeds of private placements; and upon the completion of the public offerings by Party B, the "fair market value of the JV Company" in the above formula shall be the expected total value of the JV Company immediately following Party B's contribution to the increased registered capital of the JV Company with the proceeds of public offerings.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties hereby further confirm that the dilution of Party A's equity interest in the JV Company as a result of Party B's contribution to the increased registered capital in accordance with the above formula shall be proportional to the dilution of the equity interest in the JV Company held by Party B before the registered capital increase. Party B agrees to timely communicate with Party A and jointly implement the private placements prior to its initial public offering.

6.2.3 Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing, both Parties shall have the right to subscribe for the increased registered capital of the JV Company (the "INCREASED REGISTERED CAPITAL") in proportion to their respective equity interests in the JV Company as of the date of the Board resolution. Each Party shall pay up its contribution to the Increased Registered Capital within thirty (30) days upon the issuance of the approval by the Approval Authority.

If either Party (the "WAIVING PARTY ") (i) waives its right to subscribe for all or part of the Increased Registered Capital it is entitled to by written notice to the Board, or (ii) fails to duly contribute its proportion of any part of the Increased Registered Capital within thirty
(30) days upon the approval by the Approval Authority, the other party (the "SOLE CONTRIBUTING PARTY") shall have the right (but not the obligation) to fully subscribe for all or part of the Increased Registered Capital waived or failed to be contributed by the Waiving Party. Under such circumstances, the Board shall have the JV Company valued by an independent asset valuer, in accordance with internationally accepted valuation method and the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC. Both parties agree that the percentage of the equity interest held by the Sole Contributing Party in the JV Company following the capital increase shall be calculated according to the following formula:

-11-

Percentage of the Sole Contributing Party's equity interest in the JV Company immediately after the capital increase = Percentage of the Sole Contributing Party's equity interest in the JV Company immediately before the capital increase +Amount of capital contribution made by the Sole Contributing Party x (1 - Percentage of the Sole Contributing Party's equity interest in the JV Company immediately before the capital increase) / Fair market value of the JV Company

The Parties hereby confirm that the "fair market value of the JV Company" in the above formula shall be the expected total value of the JV Company immediately after the Sole Contributing Party's contribution to the increased registered capital of the JV Company.

Both Parties undertake to sign all necessary legal documents (including but not limited to the amendments to the joint venture contracts and the Articles of Association concerning the registered capital increase) and take all necessary actions to complete the increase of the registered capital under Section 6.2.3 (including but not limited to procure the JV Company to carry out the approval and registration procedures concerning the registered capital increase)

5.3 SUBSCRIPTION RIGHT

6.3.1 Both Parties agree that, subject to the conditions that (i) Party A or its Affiliate (the same applies below) obtains all necessary approvals from the Chinese government, and (ii) Party B completes its initial public offering and its shares are listed on a Qualified Stock Exchange, Party A shall have the right to sell to Party B all the equity interest then held by Party A in the JV Company (the "SWAPPED EQUITY") as consideration for, and in exchange of, Party B's shares (the "SUBSCRIPTION RIGHT").

6.3.2 Subject to the provision of this Section 6.3, relevant PRC laws, laws of the jurisdiction where Party B is located, laws of the jurisdiction where Party B's shares are listed, laws of the jurisdiction where the Qualified Stock Exchange is located and the rules of such Qualified Stock Exchange, Party A may, within one month of the first date on which all of the conditions provided in Section 6.3.1 are satisfied, send to Party B a written notice (the "EXERCISE NOTICE") requesting sale of the Swapped Equity as consideration for, and in exchange of, Party B's shares. The Exercise Notice issued by Party B shall be accompanied by copies of all necessary approvals of the Chinese government for Party A to exercise the Subscription Right that have been obtained, legal opinions of Party A's PRC counsel confirming that all necessary approvals of the Chinese government for Party A to exercise the Subscription Right have been obtained, and all other necessary documents.

6.3.3 Party A shall have the Swapped Equity held by Party A valued by an asset valuer reasonably accepted by Party B in accordance with the internationally accepted valuation methods and relevant laws and regulations of the PRC. The asset valuation result shall be acknowledged by both Parties and undergo the procedures required by the laws of the PRC (if any). Party A shall consult with Party B to determine the value of the Swapped Equity on the basis of the asset valuation result.

-12-

6.3.4 Concurrent with transfer of Swapped Equity by Party A to Party B in accordance with the Exercise Notice, Party B shall issue to Party A new common shares of Party B according to the following formula. The number of new common shares to be issued to Party A by Party B shall be:

Number of shares to be issued to Party A by Party B = the total number of shares of Party B at the time x (Percentage of the Swapped Equity in the JV Company / Percentage of the equity interest held by Party B in the JV Company)

For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties hereby further confirm that the percentage of equity interest held indirectly by Party A in the JV Company through Party B after Party A exercises the Subscription Right in accordance with this Section 6.3 is equal to the percentage of equity interest held directly by Party A in the JV Company immediately before the exercise of the Subscription Right.

6.3.5 After Party A issues the Exercise Notice, both Parties shall sign all the necessary documents (including but not limited to an equity purchase agreement between both Parties regarding the equity interest of the JV Company and a share subscription agreement between both Parties regarding issuance of new common shares), take all necessary actions and procure all necessary approvals from, consents of, registrations and filings with governmental and regulatory authorities, to make Party A the legal and beneficial owner of the shares issued by Party B and to make Party B the legal and beneficial owner of the Swapped Equity. Both Parties agree that exercise of the Subscription Right shall be governed by the equity purchase agreement and share subscription agreement to be signed by the Parties at the time, but the share subscription agreement shall be consistent with the principles set forth in Section 6.3 hereof.

6.3.6 Upon execution of the agreements provided in Section 6.3.5 above, Party A shall work in cooperation with Party B to take all necessary procedures required by the laws of the PRC, including procedures for the conversion of the JV Company into a wholly foreign owned enterprise.

6.3.7 Both Parties agree that if Party A fails to exercise the Subscription Right within three hundred (300) days from the date of the completion of Party B's initial public offering and listing of its shares on a Qualified Stock Exchange, Party A may request Party B to purchase all equity interest held by Party A in the JV Company at the time. Party B will undertake to use its best efforts to assist Party A in completing the transfer of such equity interest held by Party A in the JV Company. The specific manner and price of the transfer shall be negotiated by both Parties based on the fair market value and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations of the PRC.

WHEREAS, Party A is in the process of pre-listing private placement financing with international investors, and plans a public offering and overseas listing of itself or a company invested by itself as the primary investor (the "Listing Vehicle"). The parties hereby enter into this agreement through consultation and adhere to it:

Article 1 Party B shall extend a loan to Party A in the form of trust loan.

Article 2 The amount of the loan principal under this agreement shall be RMB Eighty Five Million Six Hundred Thirty Five Thousand Yuan. The actual amount of the loan principal and the drawdown date shall be in accordance with the Bill of Loan.

Article 3 Term of the loan: the term of the loan under this agreement shall be one year, from May 18th, 2006 to May 17th, 2007.

Article 4 Share Conversion, Loan Interest and Method of Repayment

1. If Party A completes equity financing within the term set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement, subject to all necessary approvals from the Chinese governmental authorities, Party B is entitled to convert 100% of the loan principal into the shares of the Listing Vehicle at the conversion price same as the subscription price adopted by the international investors in the prevailing private placement financing.

The share conversion shall be conducted differently in each of the following two

1

situations:

(1) If Party A gets listed in an overseas market in the form of N shares, the loan principal shall be directly converted into the shares of Party A held by Party B directly. Party A undertakes to assist Party B in the relevant amendment company registration and record Party B on the shareholders register of Party A after the conversion.

(2) If Party A gets listed in an overseas market in the form of red-hip shares, and Party B can't hold shares in foreign companies due to foreign exchange capital control, Party B shall designate an overseas institute to hold the shares of the Listing Vehicle. Party A shall be responsible for raising foreign funds needed for overseas share conversion, which shall be equivalent to the loan principal (the foreign exchange rate shall be the closing rate at the foreign exchange market the day before the share subscription).

Party A shall procure that other shareholders of the Listing Vehicle consent to and acknowledge the share conversion.

2. If the Listing Vehicle does not complete the equity financing within the term set forth in Article 3, Party B has the right to require Party A to repay the principal and the interests, at the rate of 8% per year, in one lump sum within five(5) working days after the maturity date of the loan. Considering the equity financing progress of Party A or the Listing Vehicle, the parties may agree through consultation to extend the term of the loan. During the extension period, Party B's right of share conversion shall be in accordance with Section 1 of Article 4 hereof.

Article 5 Party A promises to retain intermediaries necessary for oversea listing, including overseas investment banks, overseas counsels, Chinese counsels and audit firm before May 20, 2005, and officially kick off the work on May 25, 2005. Party A undertakes to use its best efforts to complete the oversea listing by the end of 2006, and agrees to, if required by Party B, provide Party B with timely and accurate information regarding the listing of Party A or the Listing Vehicle.

Article 6 This agreement shall become effective after the legal representatives or authorized representatives of the parties have signed the agreement and affixed the official seals of the parties hereon.

Article 7 Any disputes shall be first settled through consultation between the parties. Should the consultation fail, such disputes shall be submitted to arbitration where Party B is located.

Article 8 This agreement shall be executed in four (4) originals, with each party holding two (2), which shall have equal legal effect.

APPENDIX B

GENERAL CONDITIONS OF SALE

1. GENERALLY:

All our supplies and services as well as all contracts concluded with us are exclusively subject to the following conditions of sale. Terms of the Purchaser which contradict or which deviate from our sales terms and which are not expressly recognised by us are not valid even if we do not expressly object to them. Where a continuing business relationship exists, all future contracts, supplies and services are also subject to our conditions of sale.

2. OFFER, CONCLUSION OF CONTRACT:

Our offers are subject to change and non-binding. Orders are only valid if confirmed by us in writing or if recognised by us through the act of delivery. Any additional verbal agreements, supplements and modifications are also only valid if confirmed in writing.

3. DELIVERY, DEFAULT:

3.1 Unless otherwise agreed, any dates quoted for delivery are non-binding.

3.2 We are entitled to make partial deliveries as far as the Purchaser must reasonably accept this in the circumstances of an individual case. The corresponding invoices issued are payable without regard to whether complete delivery has been made.

3.3 In the event delivery is delayed, the Purchaser may set us a reasonable grace period with the notice that he rejects the acceptance of the delivery item after expiry of the grace period. After the expiry of the grace period, the Purchaser is entitled to cancel the contract of sale through written notice or to request damages instead of performance.

At our request the Purchaser is obligated to state within a reasonable period whether he cancels the contract due to delay in delivery, seeks damages instead of performance or insists on performance.

3.4 Our liability is set forth in para. 9. Furthermore in the event of slight negligence, our liability is limited to the invoice value of the respective delivery item.

4. RETURN OF LOAN PACKAGING:

In the event of delayed return (meaning in the event normal uploading times are exceeded) of loading equipment, loading banks and other loan packaging we reserve the right to charge the Purchaser for the costs incurred by us.

5. PRICES:

5.1 Unless otherwise expressly agreed, prices are quoted "ex works" excluding packaging and plus delivery and shipping costs as well as plus any applicable Value Added Tax.


8

5.2 The prices valid on the day of dispatch shall apply.

Should the latter be higher than the contractual price, the Purchaser is entitled to cancel the contract with regard to the quantities still to be delivered. Cancellation shall be made within 14 days after notification of said price increase.

6. PAYMENT:

6.1 The payment shall be made in Euro to one of our bank accounts indicated on the reverse side.

6.2 Should Purchaser be in arrears with payment, interest for default shall be due and payable at 12%, but at least 8% above the respective base interest rate. We reserve the right to claim further damages. If the interest we claim is higher than the statutory interest for delayed payment, the Purchaser has the right to demonstrate lower damages just as we have the right to show that greater damages were incurred.

6.3 Should Purchaser be in arrears with payment or should there be reasonable doubts as to Purchaser's solvency or credit rating, we are -- without prejudice to our other rights -- entitled to require payment in advance for deliveries not yet made, and to require immediate payment of all our claims arising from the business relation.

6.4 Bills of exchange and cheques shall be accepted upon separate agreement and only by way of payment. All expenses incurred in this regard shall be borne by the Purchaser.

6.5 Only uncontested or legally proved claims shall entitle the Purchaser to set-off or withhold payment.

7. FORCE MAJEURE:

Events of Force Majeure, in particular strikes, lock outs, operation or transport interruptions, including at our suppliers, shall suspend the contractual obligations of each party for the period of the disturbance and to the extent of its effects. Should the delays caused exceed a period of 6 weeks, both parties shall be entitled to cancel the contract, with respect to the contractual performance affected by such delays. No other claims exist.

8. QUALITY:

8.1 All our data, especially data relating to product suitability, processing and use, as well as to technical support, have been compiled to the best of our knowledge. The Purchaser, however, must still perform his own inspections and preliminary trials.

8.2 The Purchaser undertakes to examine the goods immediately after delivery with respect to any defects concerning quality and suitability of purpose and object to ascertainable defects. Sample testing shall also be performed if this can be reasonably expected of the Purchaser. Failure to proceed in aforesaid manner shall result in the goods being regarded as accepted.


9

8.3      Complaints must be made within 8 days after receipt of the goods. In
         case of hidden faults, however, complaints are to be made immediately
         on discovery, within one year after receipt at the very latest. Said
         claims shall only be taken into consideration if and when made in
         writing and with the relevant documentation attached. To comply with
         the time limit it shall be sufficient if the complaint is sent in good
         time.

8.4      We are not liable on the basis of public statements by us, the
         manufacturer or his agents, if we were not aware of the statement or
         were not required to have knowledge thereof, the statement was already
         corrected at the time of the purchase decision or the Purchaser cannot
         show that the statement influenced his purchase decision.

8.5      We are not liable for defects which only marginally reduce the value or
         the suitability of the object. A marginal defect exists in particular
         if the defect can be removed by the Purchaser himself with
         insignificant effort.

8.6      If the Purchaser requests replacement performance due to a defect, we
         may choose whether we remove the defect ourselves or deliver a
         defect-free object as a replacement. The right to reduce the price or
         cancel the contract in the event of unsuccessful replacement
         performance shall remain unaffected.

8.7      Where complaints are justified, the goods may only be returned to us at
         our expense if after we receive notice of the defect we do not offer to
         collect or dispose of the goods.

8.8      If increased costs arise because the Purchaser has transferred the
         goods to a place other than his commercial place of business, we shall
         charge the Purchaser for the increased costs in connection with the
         remedying of the defect, unless the transfer corresponds to the
         designated use of the object.

8.9      Damage and claims for reimbursement of expenses shall remain unaffected
         as far as not excluded by para. 9.

8.10     All claims due to a defect are subject to a limitation period of one
         year after delivery of the object. No warranty is made for used
         objects. The statutory limitation period for objects which are used for
         a building structure in accordance with their usual manner of use, and
         which cause the defectiveness thereof, shall remain unaffected.

8.11     The rights of the Purchaser under Sections 478, 479 German Civil Code
         remain unaffected.

9. LIABILITY:

Our liability is excluded, regardless of the legal grounds.

This shall not apply in the event of intentional actions or gross negligence by us or our legal representatives or agents or in the event of breach of material contractual duties.

In the event of a slightly negligent breach of material contractual duties, our liability is limited to twice the invoice value of the respective delivery item. For damages due to delayed performance para. 3.4 shall also apply. Our liability for damages due to injury to life, the body or health, the


10

liability based on a guarantee and under mandatory statutory provisions, in particular the Product Liability Act, remain unaffected.

10. RESERVATION OF OWNERSHIP:

10.1     The goods that have been sold remain our sole property until all
         outstanding debts arising from the business connection with the
         Purchaser have been paid in full. The Purchaser has power of disposal
         of the purchased goods in the ordinary course of business, or he may
         process the goods until revocation by us.

10.2     Reservation of ownership and power of disposal, as laid down in clause
         10.1, also apply to the full value of the manufactured goods produced
         by processing, mixing and blending or combining our goods. In each case
         we qualify as the manufacturer. In cases where the goods are processed,
         mixed and blended or combined with those of a third party, and where
         the reservation of the latter continues to apply, then we acquire joint
         ownership in proportion to the invoice value of those processed goods.
         If security rights of a third party are in fact or in law below that
         share, the difference will be to our benefit.

10.3     If the Purchaser resells our goods to third parties he hereby assigns
         the entire resulting payment claim -- or in the amount of our joint
         share therein (see para. 10.2) -- to us. In the event the parties agree
         on a current account, the respective balance amounts shall be assigned.
         However, the Purchaser shall be entitled to collect such payment claim
         on our behalf until we revoke such right or until his payments are
         discontinued. The Purchaser is only authorized to make assignment of
         these claims -- even only for the purpose of collection by way of
         factoring -- with our express written consent.

10.4     The Purchaser shall immediately give notice to us if any third party
         raises any claim with respect to such goods or claims which are owned
         by us.

10.5     If the value of the collateral exceeds our accounts receivable by more
         than 20% then we will release collateral on demand and at our
         discretion.

10.6     We are also entitled to take back goods on the basis of the reservation
         of title, even if we have not previously cancelled the contract. If
         products are taken back by way of the exercise of the reservation of
         ownership, this shall not constitute cancellation of the contract.

10.7     If the laws of the country in which the goods are located after
         delivery do not permit the Vendor to retain the title to said goods,
         but allow the retention of other similar rights to the delivery item,
         the Purchaser shall provide us with such other equivalent right. The
         Purchaser undertakes to assist us in the fulfilment of any form
         requirements necessary for such purpose.

11.      PLACE OF FULFILMENT, APPLICABLE LAW AND JURISDICTION:

11.1     The originating point of the goods shall, in each case, be the place of
         fulfilment for the delivery. Munich shall be the place of fulfilment
         for payment.

                                                                              11

11.2     Exclusively the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply
         between the parties. The application of the 1980 United Nations
         Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is
         expressly excluded.

11.3     If the Purchaser is a merchant or does not have a general place of
         jurisdiction in Germany, the place of jurisdiction is Munich. We shall,
         however, have the right to also bring a claim against the Purchaser at
         his general place of jurisdiction.

APPENDIX B

GENERAL CONDITIONS OF SALE

1. GENERALLY:

All our supplies and services as well as all contracts concluded with us are exclusively subject to the following conditions of sale. Terms of the Purchaser which contradict or which deviate from our sales terms and which are not expressly recognised by us are not valid even if we do not expressly object to them. Where a continuing business relationship exists, all future contracts, supplies and services are also subject to our conditions of sale.

2. OFFER, CONCLUSION OF CONTRACT:

Our offers are subject to change and non-binding. Orders are only valid if confirmed by us in writing or if recognised by us through the act of delivery. Any additional verbal agreements, supplements and modifications are also only valid if confirmed in writing.

3. DELIVERY, DEFAULT:

3.1 Unless otherwise agreed, any dates quoted for delivery are non-binding.

3.2 We are entitled to make partial deliveries as far as the Purchaser must reasonably accept this in the circumstances of an individual case. The corresponding invoices issued are payable without regard to whether complete delivery has been made.

3.3 In the event delivery is delayed, the Purchaser may set us a reasonable grace period with the notice that he rejects the acceptance of the delivery item after expiry of the grace period. After the expiry of the grace period, the Purchaser is entitled to cancel the contract of sale through written notice or to request damages instead of performance.

At our request the Purchaser is obligated to state within a reasonable period whether he cancels the contract due to delay in delivery, seeks damages instead of performance or insists on performance.

3.4 Our liability is set forth in para. 9. Furthermore in the event of slight negligence, our liability is limited to the invoice value of the respective delivery item.

4. RETURN OF LOAN PACKAGING:

In the event of delayed return (meaning in the event normal uploading times are exceeded) of loading equipment, loading banks and other loan packaging we reserve the right to charge the Purchaser for the costs incurred by us.

5. PRICES:

5.1 Unless otherwise expressly agreed, prices are quoted "ex works" excluding packaging and plus delivery and shipping costs as well as plus any applicable Value Added Tax.


8

5.2 The prices valid on the day of dispatch shall apply.

Should the latter be higher than the contractual price, the purchaser is entitled to cancel the contract with regard to the quantities still to be delivered. Cancellation shall be made within 14 days after notification of said price increase.

6. PAYMENT:

6.1 The payment shall be made in Euro to one of our bank accounts indicated on the reverse side.

6.2 Should Purchaser be in arrears with payment, interest for default shall be due and payable at 12%, but at least 8% above the respective base interest rate. We reserve the right to claim further damages. If the interest we claim is higher than the statutory interest for delayed payment, the Purchaser has the right to demonstrate lower damages just as we have the right to show that greater damages were incurred.

6.3 Should Purchaser be in arrears with payment or should there be reasonable doubts as to Purchaser's solvency or credit rating, we are -- without prejudice to our other rights -- entitled to require payment in advance for deliveries not yet made, and to require immediate payment of all our claims arising from the business relation.

6.4 Bills of exchange and cheques shall be accepted upon separate agreement and only by way of payment. All expenses incurred in this regard shall be borne by the Purchaser.

6.5 Only uncontested or legally proved claims shall entitle the Purchaser to set-off or withhold payment.

7. FORCE MAJEURE:

Events of Force Majeure, in particular strikes, lock outs, operation or transport interruptions, including at our suppliers, shall suspend the contractual obligations of each party for the period of the disturbance and to the extent of its effects. Should the delays caused exceed a period of 6 weeks, both parties shall be entitled to cancel the contract, with respect to the contractual performance affected by such delays. No other claims exist.

8. QUALITY:

8.1 All our data, especially data relating to product suitability, processing and use, as well as to technical support, have been compiled to the best of our knowledge. The Purchaser, however, must still perform his own inspections and preliminary trials.

8.2 The Purchaser undertakes to examine the goods immediately after delivery with respect to any defects concerning quality and suitability of purpose and object to ascertainable defects. Sample testing shall also be performed if this can be reasonably expected of the Purchaser. Failure to proceed in aforesaid manner shall result in the goods being regarded as accepted.


9

8.3   Complaints must be made within 8 days after receipt of the goods. In case
      of hidden faults, however, complaints are to be made immediately on
      discovery, within one year after receipt at the very latest. Said claims
      shall only be taken into consideration if and when made in writing and
      with the relevant documentation attached. To comply with the time limit it
      shall be sufficient if the complaint is sent in good time.

8.4   We are not liable on the basis of public statements by us, the
      manufacturer or his agents, if we were not aware of the statement or were
      not required to have knowledge thereof, the statement was already
      corrected at the time of the purchase decision or the Purchaser cannot
      show that the statement influenced his purchase decision.

8.5   We are not liable for defects which only marginally reduce the value or
      the suitability of the object. A marginal defect exists in particular if
      the defect can be removed by the Purchaser himself with insignificant
      effort.

8.6   If the Purchaser requests replacement performance due to a defect, we may
      choose whether we remove the defect ourselves or deliver a defect-free
      object as a replacement. The right to reduce the price or cancel the
      contract in the event of unsuccessful replacement performance shall remain
      unaffected.

8.7   Where complaints are justified, the goods may only be returned to us at
      our expense if after we receive notice of the defect we do not offer to
      collect or dispose of the goods.

8.8   If increased costs arise because the Purchaser has transferred the goods
      to a place other than his commercial place of business, we shall charge
      the Purchaser for the increased costs in connection with the remedying of
      the defect, unless the transfer corresponds to the designated use of the
      object.

8.9   Damage and claims for reimbursement of expenses shall remain unaffected as
      far as not excluded by para. 9.

8.10  All claims due to a defect are subject to a limitation period of one year
      after delivery of the object. No warranty is made for used objects. The
      statutory limitation period for objects which are used for a building
      structure in accordance with their usual manner of use, and which cause
      the defectiveness thereof, shall remain unaffected.

8.11  The rights of the Purchaser under Sections 478, 479 German Civil Code
      remain unaffected.

9. LIABILITY:

Our liability is excluded, regardless of the legal grounds.

This shall not apply in the event of intentional actions or gross negligence by us or our legal representatives or agents or in the event of breach of material contractual duties.

In the event of a slightly negligent breach of material contractual duties, our liability is limited to twice the invoice value of the respective delivery item. For damages due to delayed performance para. 3.4 shall also apply. Our liability for damages due to injury to life, the body or health, the


10

liability based on a guarantee and under mandatory statutory provisions, in particular the Product Liability Act, remain unaffected.

10. RESERVATION OF OWNERSHIP:

10.1  The goods that have been sold remain our sole property until all
      outstanding debts arising from the business connection with the Purchaser
      have been paid in full. The Purchaser has power of disposal of the
      purchased goods in the ordinary course of business, or he may process the
      goods until revocation by us.

10.2  Reservation of ownership and power of disposal, as laid down in clause
      10.1, also apply to the full value of the manufactured goods produced by
      processing, mixing and blending or combining our goods. In each case we
      qualify as the manufacturer. In cases where the goods are processed, mixed
      and blended or combined with those of a third party, and where the
      reservation of the latter continues to apply, then we acquire joint
      ownership in proportion to the invoice value of those processed goods. If
      security rights of a third party are in fact or in law below that share,
      the difference will be to our benefit.

10.3  If the Purchaser resells our goods to third parties he hereby assigns the
      entire resulting payment claim -- or in the amount of our joint share
      therein (see para. 10.2) -- to us. In the event the parties agree on a
      current account, the respective balance amounts shall be assigned.
      However, the Purchaser shall be entitled to collect such payment claim on
      our behalf until we revoke such right or until his payments are
      discontinued. The Purchaser is only authorized to make assignment of these
      claims -- even only for the purpose of collection by way of factoring --
      with our express written consent.

10.4  The Purchaser shall immediately give notice to us if any third party
      raises any claim with respect to such goods or claims which are owned by
      us.

10.5  If the value of the collateral exceeds our accounts receivable by more
      than 20% then we will release collateral on demand and at our discretion.

10.6  We are also entitled to take back goods on the basis of the reservation of
      title, even if we have not previously cancelled the contract. If products
      are taken back by way of the exercise of the reservation of ownership,
      this shall not constitute cancellation of the contract.

10.7  If the laws of the country in which the goods are located after delivery
      do not permit the Vendor to retain the title to said goods, but allow the
      retention of other similar rights to the delivery item, the Purchaser
      shall provide us with such other equivalent right. The Purchaser
      undertakes to assist us in the fulfilment of any form requirements
      necessary for such purpose.

11.   PLACE OF FULFILMENT, APPLICABLE LAW AND JURISDICTION:

11.1  The originating point of the goods shall, in each case, be the place of
      fulfilment for the delivery. Munich shall be the place of fulfilment for
      payment.

                                                                              11


11.2  Exclusively the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply
      between the parties. The application of the 1980 United Nations Convention
      on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.

11.3  If the Purchaser is a merchant or does not have a general place of
      jurisdiction in Germany, the place of jurisdiction is Munich. We shall,
      however, have the right to also bring a claim against the Purchaser at his
      general place of jurisdiction.

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO YINGLI GREEN ENERGY HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED
2006 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

THIS AMENDMENT is made on May 11, 2007 by Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited (the "Company").

WHEREAS, the Company adopted the Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Stock Incentive Plan") in December 2006;

WHEREAS, Section 13 of the Stock Incentive Plan allows the Board of Directors of the Company to increase the total number of shares reserved for the purpose of the Stock Incentive Plan subject to approval of the shareholders of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to amend the Stock Incentive Plan as set forth below; and

NOW, THEREFORE, upon approval by the shareholders of the Company, the Stock Incentive Plan shall be amended as set forth below:

1. Section 2(n) of the Stock Incentive Plan shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

"(n) FAIR MARKET VALUE: On a given date, (i) if there should be a public market for the Shares on such date, the arithmetic mean of the high and low prices of the Shares as reported on such date on the Composite Tape of the principal national securities exchange on which such Shares are listed or admitted to trading, or if the Shares are not listed or admitted on any national securities exchange, the arithmetic mean of the per Share closing bid price and per Share closing asked price on such date as quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (or such market in which such prices are regularly quoted)(the "NASDAQ"), or, if no sale of Shares shall have been reported on the Composite Tape of any national securities exchange, including the NASDAQ on such date, then the immediately preceding date on which sales of the Shares have been so reported or quoted shall be used, or (ii) if there should not be a public market for the Shares on such date, the Fair Market Value shall be the value established by the Committee in good faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Award is granted subject to the closing of a Qualified IPO, the Fair Market Value of a Share shall be equal to (i) the public offering price for one Share specified in the cover page of the final prospectus with respect to the Qualified IPO, or (ii) if other securities representing Shares are offered in the Qualified IPO, the public offering price for one such security specified in the cover page of the final prospectus with respect to the Qualified IPO divided by the number of Shares represented by each such security offered in the Qualified IPO."

2. Section 2(w) of the Stock Incentive Plan shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

1

"(w) PLAN: This Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited 2006 Stock Incentive Plan, as may be amended from time to time in accordance with Section 13 hereof."

3. Sections 2(x), 2(y) and 2(z) of the Stock Incentive Plan shall be renumbered as Sections 2(y), 2(z) and 2(aa), respectively.

4. The following paragraph shall be inserted into the Stock Incentive Plan and become Section 2(x):

"(x) QUALIFIED IPO: The closing of the Company's first firm commitment, underwritten public offering of Shares or securities representing Shares in connection with which Shares or such securities are listed and become publicly traded on an internationally recognized securities exchange (including NASDAQ)."

5. Section 3 of the Stock Incentive Plan shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

"3. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

The total number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan is 8,240,658. Among the total number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan, up to 2,715,243 Shares may be issued for the purpose of granting awards of restricted Shares and up to 5,525,415 Shares may be issued for the purpose of granting Options. The Shares may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares, or Shares purchased on the open market. The issuance of Shares or the payment of cash upon the exercise of an Award or in consideration of the cancellation or termination of an Award shall reduce the total number of Shares available under the Plan, as applicable. Shares which are subject to Awards which terminate or lapse without the payment of consideration may be granted again under the Plan."

EXHIBIT 99.1

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS
OF YINGLI GREEN ENERGY HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED

I. PURPOSE

Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited and its subsidiaries (the "Company") is committed to conduct its business in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations and the highest standards of business ethics. This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the "Code") contains general guidelines for conducting the business of the Company. To the extent this Code requires a higher standard than required by commercial practice or applicable laws, rules or regulations, we adhere to these higher standards.

This Code is designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

(i) honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

(ii) full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company will file with, or submit to, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and in other public communications made by the Company;

(iii) compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

(iv) prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code; and

(v) accountability for adherence to the Code.

II. APPLICABILITY

This Code applies to all of the directors, officers, employees and advisors of the Company, whether they work for the Company on a full-time, part-time, consultative, or temporary basis (each an "employee" and collectively, the "employees").

The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") has appointed or will appoint a compliance officer for the Company (the "Compliance Officer"). If you have any questions regarding the Code or would like to report any violation of the Code, please call or email the Compliance Officer. Any questions or violations of the Code involving an executive officer, which include the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Technology Officer and Vice Presidents and any other persons who perform similar functions for the Company (each an "executive officer"), shall be directed or reported to any of our independent director on the Board or the members of the appropriate committee of the Board, and any such questions or violations will be reviewed directly by the Board or the appropriate committee of the Board.

This Code was adopted by the Board on May 11, 2007 and will become effective concurrently with the Company's first public filing of a registration statement on Form F-1 with


the SEC relating to the Company's initial public offering of its ordinary shares in the form of American Depositary Shares in the United States (the "IPO").

III. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

A. IDENTIFYING CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

A conflict of interest occurs when an employee's private interest interferes, or appears to interfere, in any way with the interests of the Company as a whole. You should actively avoid any private interest that may influence your ability to act in the interests of the Company or that may make it difficult to perform your work objectively and effectively. In general, the following should be considered conflicts of interest:

1. Competing Business. No employee may be concurrently employed by a business that competes with the Company or deprives it of any business.

2. Corporate Opportunity. No employee should use corporate property, information or his or her position with the Company to secure a business opportunity that would otherwise be available to the Company. If you discover a business opportunity that is in the Company's line of business, through the use of the Company's property, information or position, you must first present the business opportunity to the Company before pursuing the opportunity in your individual capacity.

3. Financial Interests.

(i) No employee may have any financial interest (ownership or otherwise), either directly or indirectly through a spouse or other family member, in any other business entity if such financial interest adversely affects the employee's performance of duties or responsibilities to the Company, or requires the employee to devote certain time during such employee's working hours at the Company;

(ii) no employee may hold any ownership interest in a privately-held company that is in competition with the Company;

(iii) an employee may hold up to but no more than 1.0% ownership interest in a publicly traded company that is in competition with the Company; and

(iv) no employee may hold any ownership interest in a company that has a material business relationship with the Company.

If an employee's ownership interest in a business entity described in clause (iii) above increases to more than 1.0%, the employee must immediately report such ownership to the Compliance Officer.

4. Loans or Other Financial Transactions. No employee may obtain loans or guarantees of personal obligations from, or enter into any other personal financial transaction with, any company that is a material customer, supplier or competitor of the Company. This

2

guideline does not prohibit arms-length transactions with recognized banks or other financial institutions.

5. Service on Boards and Committees. No employee should serve on a board of directors or trustees or on a committee of any entity (whether profit or not-for-profit) whose interests reasonably could be expected to conflict with those of the Company. Employees must obtain prior approval from the Board before accepting any such board or committee position. The Company may revisit its approval of any such position at any time to determine whether service in such position is still appropriate.

It is difficult to list all of the ways in which a conflict of interest may arise, and we have provided only a few, limited examples. If you are faced with a difficult business decision that is not addressed above, ask yourself the following questions:

o Is it legal?

o Is it honest and fair?

o Is it in the best interests of the Company?

B. DISCLOSURE OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

The Company requires that employees fully disclose any situations that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest. If you suspect that you have a conflict of interest, or something that others could reasonably perceive as a conflict of interest, you must report it immediately to the Compliance Officer. Conflicts of interest may only be waived by the Board, or the appropriate committee of the Board, and will be promptly disclosed to the public to the extent required by law.

C. FAMILY MEMBERS AND WORK

The actions of family members outside the workplace may also give rise to conflicts of interest because they may influence an employee's objectivity in making decisions on behalf of the Company. If a member of an employee's family is interested in doing business with the Company, the criteria as to whether to enter into or continue the business relationship, and the terms and conditions of the relationship, must be no less favorable to the Company compared with those that would apply to a non-relative seeking to do business with the Company under similar circumstances.

Employees should report any situation involving family members that could reasonably be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest to their supervisor or the Compliance Officer. For purposes of this Code, "family members" or "members of your family" include your spouse, brothers, sisters and parents, in-laws and children.

IV. GIFTS AND ENTERTAINMENT

A. GENERALLY

The giving and receiving of gifts is common business practice. Appropriate business gifts and entertainment are welcome courtesies designed to build relationships and understanding among business partners. However, gifts and entertainment should never compromise, or appear to compromise, your ability to make objective and fair business decisions.

It is the responsibility of employees to use good judgment in this area. As a general rule, employees may give or receive gifts or entertainment to or from customers or suppliers only if the gift or entertainment could not be viewed as an inducement to any particular business decision. All gifts and entertainment expenses made on behalf of the Company must be properly accounted for on expense reports, and all gift and entertainment expenses exceeding RMB1,000 made on behalf of the Company must be approved by the head of the relevant department of the Company.

Employees may only accept appropriate gifts. We encourage employees to submit gifts received to the Company. While it is not mandatory to submit small gifts, gifts of over RMB200 must be submitted immediately to the administration department of the Company.

The Company's business conduct is founded on the principle of "fair transaction." Therefore, no employee may give or receive kickbacks, bribe others, or secretly give or receive commissions or any other personal benefits.

B. UNITED STATES FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT COMPLIANCE

The United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA") prohibits giving anything of value, directly or indirectly, to officials of foreign governments or foreign political candidates in order to obtain or retain business. A violation of FCPA not only violates the Company's policy but is also a civil or criminal offense under FCPA which the Company is subject to after the Code becomes effective. No employee shall give or authorize directly or indirectly any illegal payments to government officials of any country. While the FCPA does, in certain limited circumstances, allow nominal "facilitating payments" to be made, any such payment must be discussed with and approved by your supervisor in advance before it can be made.

C. POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS

Except as approved in advance by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company, the Company prohibits political contributions (directly or through trade associations) by any employee on behalf of the Company. Prohibited political contribution activities include:

(i) any contributions of Company funds or other assets for political purposes;

(ii) encouraging individual employees to make any such contribution; and

(iii) reimbursing an employee for any political contribution.

4

V. FAIR DEALING

The Company strives to compete and to succeed through superior performacne and products and without the use of unethical or illegal practices. Accordingly, the Company's employees should respect the rights of, and should deal fairly with, the Company's customers, suppliers, competitors and employees and should not take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information or any material misrepresentation. For example, an individual should not:

(i) give or receive kickbacks, bribe others, or secretly give or receive commissions or any other personal benefits;

(ii) spread rumors about competitors, customers or suppliers that the individual knows to be false;

(iii) intentionally misrepresent the nature of quality of the Company's products; or

(iv) otherwise seek to advance the Company's interests by taking unfair advantage of anyone through unfair dealing practices, including engaging in unfair practices through a third party.

VI. PROTECTION AND USE OF COMPANY ASSETS

Employees should protect the Company's assets and ensure their efficient use for legitimate business purposes only. Theft, carelessness and waste have a direct impact on the Company's profitability. The use of the funds or assets of the Company, whether for personal gain or not, for any unlawful or improper purpose is strictly prohibited.

To ensure the protection and proper use of the Company's assets, each employee should:

(i) exercise reasonable care to prevent theft, damage or misuse of Company property;

(ii) promptly report the actual or suspected theft, damage or misuse of Company property;

(iii) safeguard all electronic programs, data, communications and written materials from inadvertent access by others; and

(iv) use Company property only for legitimate business purposes.

VII. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND CONFIDENTIALITY

1. All inventions, creative works, computer software, and technical or trade secrets developed by an employee in the course of performing the employee's duties or primarily through the use of the Company's materials and technical resources while working at the Company, shall be the property of the Company.

5

2. The Company maintains a strict confidentiality policy. During an employee's term of employment, the employee shall comply with any and all written or unwritten rules and policies concerning confidentiality and shall fulfill the duties and responsibilities concerning confidentiality applicable to the employee.

3. In addition to fulfilling the responsibilities associated with his position in the Company, an employee shall not, without first obtaining approval from the Company, disclose, announce or publish trade secrets or other confidential business information of the Company, nor shall an employee use such confidential information outside the course of his duties to the Company.

4. Even outside the work environment, an employee must maintain vigilance and refrain from disclosing important information regarding the Company or its business, customers or employees.

5. An employee's duty of confidentiality with respect to the confidential information of the Company survives the termination of such employee's employment with the Company for any reason until such time as the Company discloses such information publicly or the information otherwise becomes available in the public sphere through no fault of the employee.

6. Upon termination of employment, or at such time as the Company requests, an employee must return to the Company all of its property without exception, including all forms of medium containing confidential information, and may not retain duplicate materials.

VIII. ACCURACY OF FINANCIAL REPORTS AND OTHER PUBLIC COMMUNICATIONS

Upon the completion of the IPO, the Company will be a public company which is required to report its financial results and other material information about its business to the public and the SEC. It is the Company's policy to promptly disclose accurate and complete information regarding its business, financial condition and results of operations. Employees must strictly comply with all applicable standards, laws, regulations and policies for accounting and financial reporting of transactions, estimates and forecasts. Inaccurate, incomplete or untimely reporting will not be tolerated and can severely damage the Company and result in legal liability.

Employees should be on guard for, and promptly report, any possibility of inaccurate or incomplete financial reporting. Particular attention should be paid to:

(v) financial results that seem inconsistent with the performance of the underlying business;

(vi) transactions that do not seem to have an obvious business purpose; and

(vii) requests to circumvent ordinary review and approval procedures.

The Company's senior financial officers and other employees working in the finance and accounting department have a special responsibility to ensure that all of the Company's financial

6

disclosures are full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable. Any practice or situation that might undermine this objective should be reported to the Compliance Officer.

Employees are prohibited from directly or indirectly taking any action to coerce, manipulate, mislead or fraudulently influence the Company's independent auditors for the purpose of rendering the financial statements of the Company materially misleading. Prohibited actions include but are not limited to those actions taken to coerce, manipulate, mislead or fraudulently influence an auditor:

(i) to issue or reissue a report on the Company's financial statements that is not warranted in the circumstances (due to material violations of U.S. GAAP, generally accepted auditing standards or other professional or regulatory standards);

(ii) not to perform audit, review or other procedures required by generally accepted auditing standards or other professional standards;

(iii) not to withdraw an issued report; or

(iv) not to communicate matters to the Company's audit committee of the Board.

Employees with information relating to questionable accounting or auditing matters may also confidentially, and anonymously if they desire, submit the information in writing to the Company's audit committee of the Board.

IX. COMPANY RECORDS

Accurate and reliable records are crucial to the Company's business and form the basis of its earnings statements, financial reports and other disclosures to the public. The Company's records are the source of essential data that guides business decision-making and strategic planning. Company records include, but are not limited to, booking information, payroll, timecards, travel and expense reports, e-mails, accounting and financial data, measurement and performance records, electronic data files and all other records maintained in the ordinary course of our business.

All Company records must be complete, accurate and reliable in all material respects. There is never an acceptable reason to make false or misleading entries. Undisclosed or unrecorded funds, payments or receipts are strictly prohibited. You are responsible for understanding and complying with the Company's record keeping policy. Contact the Compliance Officer if you have any questions regarding the record keeping policy.

X. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS; INSIDER TRADING

Each employee has an obligation to comply with the laws of the cities, provinces, regions and countries in which the Company operates. This includes, without limitation, laws covering commercial bribery and kickbacks, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets, information privacy, insider trading, offering or receiving gratuities, employment harassment, environmental protection, occupational health and safety, false or misleading financial information, misuse of corporate assets or foreign currency exchange activities. Employees are expected to understand

7

and comply with all laws, rules and regulations that apply to your position at the Company. If any doubt exists about whether a course of action is lawful, you should seek advice immediately from the Compliance Officer.

Employees are prohibited from trading securities while in possession of material nonpublic information, whether of the Company or other companies, and must comply with insider trading and any applicable securities law and the Company's Statement of Policies Governing Material, Non-Public Information and the Prevention of Insider Trading, attached hereto as Exhibit B, regarding securities transactions and handling of confidential information. Insider trading is both unethical and illegal and will be firmly dealt with by the Company. Prohibition on insider trading applies to members of the employees' family and anyone else sharing the home of the employees. Therefore, employees must use discretion when discussing work with friends or family members, as well as with other employees.

XI. WORKPLACE ENVIRONMENT

A. DISCRIMINATION AND HARASSMENT

The Company is firmly committed to providing equal opportunity in all aspects of employment and will not tolerate any illegal discrimination or harassment based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, age, national origin or any other protected class. For further information, you should consult the Compliance Officer.

B. HEALTH AND SAFETY

The Company strives to provide employees with a safe and healthy work environment. Each employee has responsibility for maintaining a safe and healthy workplace for other employees by following environmental, safety and health rules and practices and reporting accidents, injuries and unsafe equipment, practices or conditions. Violence and threatening behavior are not permitted.

Each employee is expected to perform his or her duty to the Company in a safe manner, free of the influences of alcohol, illegal drugs or other controlled substances. The use of illegal drugs or other controlled substances in the workplace is prohibited.

XII. VIOLATIONS OF THE CODE; PROTECTION AGAINST RETALIATION

All employees have a duty to report any known or suspected violation of this Code, including any violation of laws, rules, regulations or policies that apply to the Company. Reporting a known or suspected violation of this Code by others will not be considered an act of disloyalty, but an action to safeguard the reputation and integrity of the Company and its employees.

If you know of or suspect a violation of this Code, it is your responsibility to immediately report the violation to the Compliance Officer, who will work with you to investigate your concern. Any suspected violation of this Code involving an executive officer shall be directed or reported to any of our independent directors on the Board or to the appropriate committee of the

8

Board. All questions and reports of known or suspected violations of this Code will be treated with sensitivity and discretion. The Compliance Officer, the Board or the appropriate committee of the Board and the Company will protect your confidentiality to the extent possible, consistent with the law and the Company's need to investigate your concern.

It is the Company's policy that any employee who violates this Code will be subject to appropriate discipline, including termination of employment, based upon the facts and circumstances of each particular situation. Your conduct as an employee of the Company, if it does not comply with the law or with this Code, can result in serious consequences for both you and the Company.

The Company strictly prohibits retaliation against an employee who, in good faith, seeks help or reports known or suspected violations. An employee inflicting reprisal or retaliation against another employee for reporting a known or suspected violation will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment.

XIII. WAIVERS OF THE CODE

Waivers of this Code will be granted on a case-by-case basis and only in extraordinary circumstances. Waivers of this Code may be made only by the Board, or the appropriate committee of the Board, and will be promptly disclosed to the public.

XIV. CONCLUSION

This Code contains general guidelines for conducting the business of the Company consistent with the highest standards of business ethics. If you have any questions about these guidelines, please contact the Compliance Officer. We expect all employees to adhere to these standards. Each employee is separately responsible for his or her actions. Conduct that violates the law or this Code cannot be justified by claiming that it was ordered by a supervisor or someone in higher management. If you engage in conduct prohibited by the law or this Code, you will be deemed to have acted outside the scope of your employment. Such conduct will subject you to disciplinary action, including termination of employment.
