On August 20, 2010, Jinhao Motor Company closed the securities purchase agreements with accredited institution investors, pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investors 6,857,204 Units at a purchase price of $4.37496 per Unit, the "Series A Financing" . Each Unit consists of one share of the Company's newly-designated Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and one Warrant to purchase 0.5 share of the Company's Common Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock will be convertible into one share of the Company's Common Stock. The Warrants will be immediately exercisable at a per share price of $6.56244 and will have a term of three years. The Company is obligated to register the underlying shares of Common Stock within a pre-defined period.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Series A Financing to further increase its production capacity and fund expansion plans.

Hudson Securities, Inc. acted as the Company's Placement Agent in connection with the Series A Financing.

WorldWide Capital, Inc. acted as the Company's Exclusive Financial Advisor.

Jinhao Motor is primarily engaged in the production and distribution of motorcycles and small engines. The overseas market accounts for 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 internationally.

The Company has invested over $45 million into R&D for electric vehicles, and has entered into exclusive patent license agreements for 2 patents to be used in the production of electric vehicles. The Company has also signed sales agency agreements with six major distributors across China, and overseas and has signed sales contracts with distributors from Spain, Finland, Italy, Chile and Thailand. The Company is also focused on developing distribution channels into the EU and the United States. Jinhao's electric vehicles are priced much lower than 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.

Jinhao Motor's CEO and Chairman, Mr. Tsoi said, "We are very pleased to announce the closing of our Series A Financing. We are especially proud that recognized banks made such a substantial commitment and support to our Company. We are extremely excited about the prospects of the electric vehicle industry and this financing will further support our 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."

"We appreciate the strong support from institutional investors and we believe that our client- Jinhao can take the company to the next horizon by diligently executing the business model with the current round of financing" , commented, Mr. Baldwin Yung- Managing Partner of Worldwide Capital.
