ABOUT THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING
What is the purpose of the EGM?
The purpose of the EGM is to seek shareholder approval to remove John D. Kuhns, Richard H. Hochman, Shadron Lee Stastney, Anthony H. Dixon and Stephen Outerbridge from the board of directors and to elect Amit Gupta, Moonkyung Kim, Jui Kian Lim and Yun Pun Wong to the board of directors of the Company.
Why should we vote to remove five of the current board members, including the Chairman and CEO of the Company?
The Specified Shareholders believe that the Company is undervalued and the current decline in the trading price of the shares of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is a reflection of its poor performance, lack of growth strategy and lack of leadership. Despite this, we believe in the fundamental strength of the Company, certain of its management and the hydroelectric industry. We believe that with a reformulated board of directors, the Company will be able to come up with a clear plan to resolve the Company’s liquidity needs, reduce costs and general and administrative expenses, and turn around the Company’s financial performance.
Please see “Joint-Letter to the Board of Directors of China Hydroelectric Corporation” (the “Joint-Letter”) as delivered to the board of directors by the Specified Shareholders on August 30, 2012, and as filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on a Schedule 13D, dated as of August 30, 2012. A copy of the Joint-Letter is also included with this Proxy Statement asAttachment A.
