The Board of Directors of

Solar Green Technology S.p.A.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Solar Green Technology S.p.A. (and subsidiaries) as of 31 December 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Solar Green Technology S.p.A. (and subsidiaries) as of 31 December 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in Italy.

Accounting principles generally accepted in Italy vary in certain significant respects from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in note 23 to the consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 1—FORM AND CONTENT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated financial statements of Solar Green Technology S.P.A. (“SGT” or the Company) and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively the “Group”) are prepared on the basis of the accounts of SGT and the financial statements of the individual companies consolidated for the periods presented, as approved by their respective Boards of Directors, adjusted, where necessary, to conform with the accounting policies adopted by SGT. Amounts are reported in Euro.

The accounting policies are consistent with the Italian Civil code related to consolidated financial statements interpreted and integrated by the accounting principles established or adopted by the Italian Accounting Profession (collectively “Italian Accounting Principles”).

Italian accounting principles differ in certain material respects from US generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The effects of these differences on shareholders’ equity and net income / (loss) as of and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, are set forth in note 23.

The consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in a reclassified format, which differs from SGT’s financial statements and disclosures which are prepared in accordance with the Italian legal requirements. The format presented does not result in any modification of the shareholders’ equity and net income as resulting on an Italian Accounting Principles basis. Notes and disclosures were also adjusted as necessary as a result of the above mentioned reclassification.

The shares of SGT, at 31 December, 2011 were owned for 70% by LDK Solar Europe Holding S.A. (a wholly owned subsidiary of LKD Solar Co, Ltd), 15% by Mr Giuseppe Truglio and 15% by Mr Angelo Prete. No changes in the ownership occurred from the prior year. On June 25, 2012 100% of the shares were purchased by Solar Power Inc (“SPI”). SPI, an entity whose common stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, is controlled at 70% by LDK Solar Co, Ltd.

LIQUIDITY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business are dependent on, among other things, the Company’s ability to operate profitably, to generate cash flows from operations, and to pursue financing arrangements to support its working capital requirements.

The ultimate parent company, LDK Solar Co., Ltd. (LDK), has disclosed publically that it had a net loss and negative cash flows from operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 and has a working capital deficit and was not in compliance with certain financial covenants on its indebtedness at December 31, 2011. These factors raise substantial doubt on LDK’s ability to continue as a going concern. While management of LDK believes that it has a plan to satisfy LDK’s liquidity requirements for a reasonable period of time, there is no assurance that their plan will be successfully implemented. In addition, SPI, which has recently purchase SGT, as a result of its close business relationship with, and equity ownership by, LDK and the relationship between LDK and China Development Bank (CDB), is experiencing certain risks and uncertainties in its business.

The company has analyzed its relationship with the entities of LDK group and equity ownership by SPI, and has also analyzed its financial situation, and reached the conclusion that there is no substantial doubt on SGT’s ability to continue as a going concern. This conclusion is supported by the following:

• a financial plan, updated at September 2012, which shows positive cash flow and repayment of debt, including Group companies, in the normal course of business;

• all SGT’s credit lines are independent from LDK’s guarantees;

• SGT is not dependant on LDK for the supply of modules (for the new projects SGT is using modules purchased elsewhere) ;

• all SGT’s ongoing projects are with non-LDK third parties. For each project the customer has the availability of financial resources granted by a financial institutions, which is specifically dedicated to the settlement of the invoices related to the project;

• LDK’s creditors can only request payment on moneys owed to LDK.

NOTE 2—ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied by SGT according to Italian Accounting Principles in the financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements of the Group include the accounts of SGT and all subsidiaries in which SGT holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the share capital. The equity method of accounting is used for affiliated companies and other investments in which the Group has significant influence; generally this is represented by a level of voting capital of at least 20% and not more than 50%. Investments held at a less than 20% level are accounted for at historical cost.

The assets and liabilities of the companies consolidated on a line-by-line basis are included in the consolidated financial statements after eliminating the carrying value of the investments against the related net equities.

All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated, together with the unrealized intercompany profits included in inventory and work in progress.

The consolidation area includes the following entities:

	As of December 31,
	2011			2010
Mi.Ca. Solare S.r.l.		(*	)		100	%
Sun Energy S.r.l.		100	%		—
Moiac S.r.l.		100	%		—
Salel S.r.l.		100	%		—

(*) Subsidiary sold on 30 June 2011

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents represent highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash and have original maturities of ninety days or less.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND PAYABLE

Accounts receivable and payable are recorded at their nominal value. Where required, provisions are made to write-down the receivables to their estimated realizable value.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS

Revenues and costs associated with transactions in foreign currencies are translated into Euro by applying the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted by applying the year-end exchange rate and any resulting unrealized gains and losses are recorded in the income statement.

INVENTORIES

Inventories refer to a stock of finished goods and costs incurred to obtain permits which entitle the Group to develop the plants, which represent the core business of the Group.

Finished goods are carried at the lower of the acquisition cost, including directly attributable incidental charges, and the net realizable market value. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average cost.

Permits to develop plants are carried at their acquisition cost. They are charged to the income statement at the time the plant is connected to the grid.

WORK IN PROGRESS AND REVENUES FROM THE REALIZATION OF PROJECTS

Work in progress relates to customer contracts that are in progress at year-end for the development of photovoltaic plants.

Work in progress is measured based on the consideration agreed with the customer and the stage of completion of the work and is presented gross, without a reduction of progress billings issued to customers. Revenue related to contract work in progress is recognized using the percentage of completion method, determined by applying the cost-to-cost method. Losses incurred on the projects are entirely charged to income as they become known.

Invoices issued related to work in progress are presented on the balance sheet by debiting an asset, accounts receivable, and crediting, a deferred credit, progress billing to customers. When the plant is connected to the grid, the related turnover is recognized as revenue from the projects in the statement of income, with the related decrease in the work in progress caption.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at purchase or construction cost, including any directly attributable charges.

Depreciation reflects the estimated useful life of the assets. The depreciation rates used in the financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

Description	Rate or applied criteria
Plant and equipment		20	%
Industrial and commercial machinery		15	%
Other:
- Furniture and fittings		12	%
- Electronic office equipment		20	%
- Goods with a unit value less than 516.46 Euros		100	%

Depreciation was calculated for assets entering into service during any financial year on the basis of the effective date the assets have been placed into use.

INTANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Intangible fixed assets are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight line basis over the period of expected future benefit. The amortization rates used in the financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

Description	Rate or applied criteria
Start-up costs		20	%
R&D		33	%
Advertising		20	%
Concessions, licenses and brands		20	%
Other:
- Leasehold improvements		Based on the contract term	*
- Web site design		20	%

* Insofar as it is less than its useful life.

WRITE-DOWN OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Group evaluates its long-lived assets for any permanent impairment in value when an indicator of impairment is identified. Long-lived assets (property, plant and equipment, intangible fixed assets, including goodwill, and equity investments) are written-down when there is a permanent impairment. Except for goodwill, the lower value is not maintained in subsequent financial statements if the circumstances which gave rise to impairment are no longer applicable. A write-down is recognized when the recoverable value of an asset is below its net book value and the amount of the write-down is the difference between the recoverable value and the net book value.

No impairment or any reversal of previously recorded impairment losses have been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

EMPLOYEE TERMINATION INDEMNITIES

Employee termination indemnities are determined in accordance with the relevant current laws. The amount of employee termination indemnities reflects the total amount of the indemnities, net of any advances taken, that each employee of the consolidated companies would be entitled to receive if termination would occur as of the respective balance sheet dates.

PROVISIONS FOR CONTINGENCIES

Provisions for risks and charges are recognized, if any, when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made.

Provisions for contingencies are set up when the following conditions exist:

• There is a present obligation (legal or constructive) at the reporting date as a result of a past event where an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation;

• It is probable that the obligation will have to be settled (through an outflow of resources) and a reliable estimate can be made of the obligation.

RECOGNITION OF REVENUES AND EXPENSE

Revenues related to work in progress are recognized based on the percentage of completion method of accounting as described above.

Revenues are recorded net of returns, discounts and allowances, as well as the taxes directly connected with the sale of products and services. In particular:

• Revenues for services are recognized as services are performed;

• Revenues for sale of goods are recognized at the moment of transfer of ownership, which normally coincides with the delivery of the goods.

Financial income and expenses are recognized on an accrual basis.

The costs incurred for the construction of tangible fixed assets internally developed, are capitalized and classified in the balance sheet as tangible fixed assets, and are recorded in the statement of income as revenue in the caption “capitalization of internally developed fixed assets” in the period in which these costs are incurred.

INCOME TAXES

Current income taxes are computed on the basis of the estimated income tax charge according to the tax laws in force in Italy; the related income tax payable is shown net of payments on account, withholding taxes and tax credits in “Taxes payable”. Any net receivable position is shown in the caption “Other current assets”.

The Group recognizes deferred income tax assets and liabilities that are determined under the liability method. Deferred income taxes represent the tax effect of temporary differences between the tax and financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates, and the expected future benefit of net operating loss carry-forwards. The tax benefit of tax loss carry-forwards is recorded only when there is a reasonable certainty of realization.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset whenever allowed by local Italian tax laws.

Taxes that could arise from the transfer of undistributed profits by subsidiaries are only calculated when the subsidiary has the positive intention to transfer such profits.

DERIVATIVES

Derivative financial instruments are mainly used by the Group to hedge exposure to foreign currency exchange risks. For financial instruments used to hedge exchange rate risks, the cost (or “financial component” calculated as the difference between the spot rate at the date of entering into the contract and the forward rate) is recorded in the statement of income based on the accrual principle over the life of the contracts in financial income or expense.

For financial instruments used to hedge exchange rate risks, the fair values of the outstanding contracts at year-end are not recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with Italian Accounting Principles requires the Group to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses recognized during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

NOTE 6—WORK IN PROGRESS

Work in progress refers to orders for construction of “turnkey” plants for which the project is not yet completed. They are shown in the balance sheet gross of progress billing.

Being Sun Energy S.r.l. consolidated, costs related to these two projects, for a total net amount of Euro 4,106,995, have been classified within tangible fixed assets. This represents the main addition of 2011.

Construction in process at 31 December 2010 relates to the construction by SGT of a photovoltaic plant ordered by the subsidiary Mi.Ca. Solare S.r.l. (“Mi.Ca.”). As Mi.Ca was consolidated at 31 December 2010, costs related to this project have been presented as internally developed construction in process. In June 2011, before selling the subsidiary, the construction was completed and sold to Mi.Ca., the investment in which was subsequently sold and therefore the company’s accounts were deconsolidated. The transaction and its related gain on disposal are discussed in note 19.

Italian laws restrict the amount of dividends that can be paid out on an annual basis. Before dividends can be paid out of net income in any year, an amount equal to 5% of such net income must be allocated to the statutory legal reserve until such reserve is at least equal to one-fifth of the par value of the capital stock.

If the capital account is reduced as a result of statutory losses, no amounts can be paid until the capital account is restored. Dividends can only be declared on the basis of the statutory equity available, which can be substantially different from the US GAAP equity reported in note 23. In addition to restrictions on the amount of dividends, Italian laws also prescribe the procedures required if a company’s aggregate par value falls below a certain level. The law states that if the aggregate par value is reduced by more than one third, then the quotaholders must take action, which could include a recapitalization of the company. The Company’s dividend requirements are based on the individual, stand alone statutory financial statements, not on the consolidated financial statements as presented herein.

The Italian photovoltaic market in which the Group operates has recorded an unexpected explosion in terms of size during 2011, reaching a global standing with 9 GW of new installed power generated from photovoltaic sources, compared to Germany (7.5 GW) and China (2 GW). This increase is also related to changes in local regulation (the so-called “Save Alcoa” regulation), permitting the recognition of more favorable tariffs for energy produced using renewable sources.

A substantial portion of revenues from sales of photovoltaic plants recorded in 2011 arises from the completion of projects that started up towards the end of 2010, benefiting from more favorable tariffs and the so-called “Save Alcoa” decree.

The types and sizes of photovoltaic plants produced vary from 40 kW rooftop up to fully integrated 2.2 MW rooftop plants, or ground based plants with a power capability between 600 kW and 5 MW.

A breakdown of revenues from sales by geographic area is as follows:

NOTE 23 — RECONCILIATION TO GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

The Group accounting policies for financial reporting in accordance with Italian Accounting Principles differ in certain material respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”). Significant differences, which have an effect on Net Income (Loss) and Shareholders’ Equity (Deficit), are described below:

(A) Accounting for certain intangible assets – Under Italian Accounting Principles, the Company capitalized and deferred various costs, such as start-up, R&D advertising and web-site design, which are to be expensed as incurred under US GAAP.

The following reconciliation includes the reduction of the equity for the amount of the “intangible fixed assets” (net of accumulated amortization at the beginning of each year) and the increase of income (decrease of loss) relating the reversal of the amortization of the “intangible fixed assets” booked to the statement of income under Italian Accounting Principles. For the tax effects related to this reconciliation item refer to letter (D) below.

(B) Derivatives—The only derivative financial instruments utilized by the Company are foreign exchange rate contracts which are used to hedge foreign exchange fluctuation risk on US currency. For Italian Accounting Principles purposes, the changes in the fair value of the hedges are only partially recognized. For US GAAP purposes, it is necessary to designate derivative financial instruments at the time of their inception in order to qualify for hedge accounting. The derivative contract outstanding as of December 31, 2010 does not qualify for hedge accounting, and therefore its change in fair value should be recognized in the statement of income.

The following reconciliation includes the increase of the equity relating to the recognition of an asset corresponding to the fair value of the derivative contract outstanding at year-end and the increase of income relating to the recognition of the change in fair value of the derivative contract outstanding at year-end. For the tax effects related to this reconciliation item refer to letter (D) below.

(C) Non-current assets held for sale – At December 31, 2011, there were certain fixed assets, which under US GAAP would have been classified as assets held for sale in the amount of Euro 4,106,995 (at 31 December 2010: nil). Under Italian accounting principles these assets are classified as “property, plant and equipment”. Under US GAAP, non-current asset held for sale are presented in the balance sheet as a separate line item, are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value and are no longer depreciated from the time they qualify for this classification. The following reconciliation includes the increase of the equity and income relating to the elimination of the depreciation charges accounted for after the criteria for inclusion into non-current assets held for sale were satisfied. For the tax effects related to this reconciliation item refer to letter (D) below.

(D) Deferred income taxes effects of item on A, B and C – In the accompanying reconciliation, the effects of the recognition of deferred income taxes related to the US GAAP adjustments under the letter A and B above that give rise to temporary differences between the reporting basis for Italian Accounting Principles and the reporting basis for US GAAP are also reflected. The Italian statutory taxation is based on a national tax (IRES – 27.5% in 2011 and 2010) and on a Regional Tax on Productive Activities (IRAP – 3.9%). The taxable basis for the computation of IRAP is considerably different than taxable income for Corporate income tax purposes, as it adds back the costs of labor, financing costs, bad debts and other miscellaneous items.

The following table summarizes the significant adjustments to the net income/(loss) which would be required if US GAAP had been applied instead of Italian Accounting Principles:

		Year ended December 31,
Amounts in Euros		2011			2010
	Net income (loss) as per Italian Accounting Principles		320,166			10,410
A	Accounting for certain intangible assets		37,742			(47,377	)
B	Derivatives		(9,099	)		9,099
C	Elimination of depreciation related to non-current assets held for sale		69,610			—
D	Deferred Income tax effect on items A, B and C		(31,206	)		12,374
	Net income (loss) in accordance with US GAAP		387,213			(15,494	)

The following table summarizes the significant adjustments to the shareholders’ equity which would be required if US GAAP had been applied instead of Italian Accounting Principles:

		As of December 31,
Amounts in Euros		2011			2010
	Shareholders’ equity as per Italian Accounting Principles		1,371,177			1,051,011
A	Accounting for certain intangible assets		(54,985	)		(92,727	)
B	Derivatives		—			9,099
	Elimination of depreciation related to non-current assets
C	held for sale		69,610			—
D	Deferred income tax effect on items A, B and C		(4,592	)		26,614
	Shareholders’ equity in accordance with US GAAP		1,381,210			993,997

The following summarizes the significant balance sheet and income statement reclassifications that would be required if US GAAP had been applied instead of Italian Accounting Principles:

(E) Presentation of certain assets on the balance sheet – Under Italian Accounting Principles, the Company shows work in progress on a gross basis in the caption “progress billing to customers”; the Company also classifies “permits to develop plants” as a component of inventory. Under US GAAP, these amounts would be classified as “costs in excess of billings” (CIE). CIE at December 31, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

	As of December 31,
Amounts in Euros	2011		2010
Work in progress		771,713		21,430,737
Progress billing to customers		—		(12,347,440	)
Permits to develop plants		191,445		237,325
Cost in excess of billings		963,158		9,320,622

In addition, Under Italian Accounting Principles, “construction in process” are classified in the caption Property, plant and equipment. Under US GAAP, the caption “construction in process” is shown as a separate line item in the balance sheet. Construction in process at December 31, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

	As of December 31,
Amounts in Euros	2011		2010
Construction in process		—		3,363,777

(F) Presentation of certain expenses in the income statement– Under Italian Accounting Principles, the amounts related to “general, administrative selling and engineering expense” are shown as part of the caption “cost of operations”. Under US GAAP, the amounts related to the above items are shown separately from the cost of goods sold. The amounts related to “general, administrative, selling and engineering expenses for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are Euro 2,540,017 and Euro 1,874,179, respectively.

(G) Presentation in the income statements of the costs capitalized as “internally developed tangible fixed assets”– Under Italian Accounting Principles, costs are recorded in the income statement in the period in which the costs are incurred classified by nature. After an analysis of the costs eligible for capitalization is performed, an asset, construction of tangible fixed assets internally developed, is debited and a corresponding credit to revenue, in the caption “capitalization of internally developed tangible assets” is also recorded in the period in which the costs are incurred. This accounting results in a “gross up” in the income statement, with no impact on net income. Under US GAAP, the costs incurred for the construction of tangible fixed assets internally developed, are capitalized and classified in the balance sheet as tangible fixed assets in the period in which they are incurred with no impact on the income statement. The amounts in revenue and cost of operations in the financial statements under Italian Accounting Principles related to “capitalization of internally developed tangible assets” for 2011 and 2010 are Euro 3,918,616 and Euro 3,363,777, respectively.

(H) Presentation of balance sheet and income statement related to real estate projects– Under Italian accounting principles there are no specific guidance on how to account for real estate projects. Under US GAAP, for those projects where the Company is considered to be the owner, the project is accounted for under the rules of real estate accounting. In the event of a sale, the method of revenue recognition is determined by considering the extent of the buyer’s initial and continuing investment and the nature and the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement. Generally, revenue is recognized at the time of title transfer if the buyer’s investment is sufficient to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property and the Company does not have a substantial continuing involvement with the property. When continuing involvement is substantial and not temporary, the Company applies the financing method, whereby the asset remains on the balance sheet and the proceeds received are recorded as a financing obligation. When a sale is not recognized due to continuing involvement and the financing method is applied the Company records revenue and expenses related to the underlying operations of the asset in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, SGT sold to LDK its interest in Mi.Ca Solare, S.r.l. a special purpose vehicle created for the development of solar energy facilities which for US GAAP should be classified as a net sale of Euro 4,333,624 with cost of sales of Euro 3,363,777, while, under Italian Accounting Principles, a gain on disposal equal to Euro 969,846 was recognized.
