signed four agreements with CEEC, the world's largest electrical power solution
provider and Fortune 500 Company. We are going to set up 8 MW of solar power at
Beximco Industrial Park. We will also work together to set up 200 MW solar

joint venture energy company to build a small grid and distribution system
countrywide.”
