agreed to provide China Power with the land rights for up to 200
MU, or 133,400 square meters of land, to develop a biomass energy
power plant, together with an additional 500,000 MU, or 333,500,000
square meters, of land, rich in straw resources to support the
power plant. Conversely, China Power has committed to invest up to
580 million Yuan, or approximately $81,586,000, towards the
development of the power plant, or 56,000 Yuan, or approximately
$7,877, for every 667 square meters of land provided by Ongniute.
Legally protected by the Chinese Central Government's biomas energy
policies, Ongniute has guaranteed (i) the financing for up to 65%
of the total 580 million Yuan of the power plant through a local
bank at a preferred interest rate, (ii) that 100% of the power
generated by the Biomass Energy plant shall be purchased by the
China State Grid at a purchase price of between 0.60 and 0.65 Yuan,
or approximately $0.09 and $0.08, per kilowatt, and that the
Biomass Energy Power Generation Plant/Project (Power Capacity:
50MW) has the total expected annual power generating capacity of
400 million kilowatt-hour (kWh) and (iii) the payment of 13.2
million Yuan, or approximately $1,856,797, back to China Power once
construction of the power plant is completed. Ongniute will also

following three years. Development of the plant will be done
through Ongniute America-China Green Energy Co. Ltd., a wholly
owned subsidiary of China Power, Inc. The Company has secured,
and/or will have secured the Advanced Technology (CAPS-II pyrolysis
system, the leading technologies of biomass energy systems in the
world), Efficient Combustion Resulting in Clean Emission (CAPS-II
pyrolysis system is environmentally friendly and economically
profitable, in disposing of agricultural waste), and Modular Design
Maximizing Flexibility, etc. The Company is establishing
longstanding strategic relationships with other power operators,
financial sponsors, suppliers, subcontractors and governmental
representatives that will ensure the Company's successful

Power Producers are involved in generating electricity power from
renewable energy sources, such as Hydropower (Water), Wind Energy
and Certain Waster Products such as Biomass. The demand on
renewable energy power in the world continues growing and is
largely driven by long-term trends towards stronger policies for
environmental protection. The combustion of fossil fuels such as
coal, oil and natural gas to generate electricity power emits
greenhouse gases, and is acknowledged worldwide as a major source
to global warming. For environmental protection, combined with an
increase in electricity demand, lower-level growth of electricity
supplies, and near all- time high energy commodity prices are
enticing electricity producers and providers to diversify their mix
of power generation sources to include a larger share of renewable
power. Biomass Renewable Energy: straw to energy. Straw is
renewable energy and is a part of nature's plants. The carbon on
the inside of the straw can change to organic carbon through
absorption of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere during
photosynthesis. The biomass energy project, as an alternative and
renewable energy source, is fully supported by the central
government and local governments of China. The development and
construction of the renewable energy project is protected by The
Renewable Energy Law, created on January 1, 2006, by the People
Congress of China. The Chinese central government has set a series
of tax exemption/deduction regulations to encourage the
construction of renewable energy projects. The National Reform and
Development Committee implements the purchase electricity price for
renewable energy. It ensures the standard purchase electricity
price is 0.25 Yuan/kWh addition base on the local average grid
connection price (0.25-0.44 Yuan/kWh). In addition, there is a
supervision system to ensure full purchase and payment. For
