The Investment Policy 

The Company's objective is to generate an attractiverate of return for Shareholders by taking advantage of opportunities to invest inthe hydropower market in Western China.

It does not intend to make anyother smaller acquisitions or investments before then. The Company will ultimatelyaim to acquire/invest in up to 2 power-generation projects with a capacity of approximately200 megawatts. The Directors intend that the construction of these projects wouldbe completed before 2012.

Before making an acquisition the Board or an independentthird party will carry out a feasibility study report to check the environmentalimpact and to carry out a relevant profitability analysis for each potential project.The Board will only complete an acquisition if the project is considered environmentallyfriendly and economically profitable.

The Company will be a value and growth orientedinvestor, targeting opportunities with the ability for the Company to add value eitherthrough its access to capital, its network of contacts or by recruiting high-qualitypersonnel. The Company intends to be an "active" investor rather than a "passive"investor.
