("Beijing Trust") as announced in a press release issued by China Recycling Energy Corporation on December 8, 2009.

Beijing Trust raised 25,000,000 yuan (approximately US$ 3.68 million) through the sale of 25,000,000 trust units sold at 1 yuan per unit which included 20,000,000 category A1 preferred trust units (approximately US$ 2.94 million) and 5,000,000 category B2 secondary trust units (approximately US$ 0.74 million). The B2 units have been purchased by Xi'an TCH.

("Xi'an TCH"), a subsidiary of the Company and Erdos Metallurgy Co., Ltd. The loan is a part of the Capital Trust Loan Agreement (the "Agreement") entered into by Erdos TCH and Beijing Trust on November 19, 2009, and it took effect on December 3, 2009. Under the Agreement, Beijing Trust will lend the capital to Erdos TCH for its waste heat power generation project phase II and phase III construction and operation, through which Erdos TCH will recycle heat from groups of furnaces of Erdos Metallurgy's metal refining plants to generate power and steam, which will then be sold back to Erdos Metallurgy.
