    Q2 2010 Preliminary Results
    -- Total solar product shipments for Q2 2010 are expected to be in the
       range of 250 megawatts ("MW") to 260 MW, exceeding the Company's
       previous guidance range of 230 MW to 250 MW and representing an
       increase of 3.1% to 7.3% from 242.4 MW in Q1 2010.
    -- Net revenues for Q2 2010 are expected to be in the range of US$245
       million to US$255 million, exceeding the Company's previous guidance
       range of US$230 million to US$250 million and representing an increase

       compared to 17.1% in Q1 2010.

"The strong demand for high-quality wafer products witnessed during the first quarter of 2010 continued through the second quarter as a result of ongoing tightness in the wafer supply chain," said Li Xianshou, ReneSola's chief executive officer. "Execution of our cost reduction strategies and the efforts we have made to develop and position our business have allowed us to capitalize on improved demand trends while becoming a leading low-cost solar product provider. By leveraging our leading wafer manufacturing platform and complementary OEM module production services and capitalizing on our strong customer relationships, we have benefited from a cost-competitive strategy to deliver record product shipments and increased profitability. We expect to see stable pricing in the coming months as demand has remained strong and is expected to continue in the second half of 2010."

For the second half of 2010, the Company expects total solar product shipments to be in the range of 600 MW to 650 MW. Net revenues are expected to be in the range of US$550 million to US$570 million and gross profit margin is expected to be between 28% and 30%.
