Jinhao Motor is primarily engaged in the production and distribution of

approximately 78.63% of our sales with the domestic market making up the
remaining.
In 2006, the Company began a research and development of electric
vehicles. In 2009, the Company established an electric vehicle
manufacturing plant with 215,278.2 square feet and has developed and
manufactured prototypes of two models of electric vehicles, a compact
two-door and a mid-size four-door, both of which are used in city and
highway environments. Since October 2009, the Company has delivered over
1,500 units of electric cars to its customers both domestically and

vehicles, and has entered into exclusive patent license agreements for 2
patents to be used in the production of electric vehicles. The Company

across China, and overseas and has signed sales contracts with

is also focused on developing distribution channels into the EU and the

similar models produced by other car manufacturers in the international
market. Jinhao's primary strength lies in its existing strong global
sales distribution network from its motorcycle business. The Company
plans to leverage that strength and expand its business with electric
vehicles.

announce the closing of our Series A Financing. We are especially proud
that recognized banks made such a substantial commitment and support to

plans as we strive to become a leader in the electric vehicle and
alternative energy industry. We would also like to thank Hudson
Securities and Worldwide Capital for their advice and support."
