Such registration statement, together with any registration statement filed by the Company pursuant to Rules 413(b) and 462(f) under the Act, is herein referred to as the “Registration Statement,” which shall be deemed to include all information omitted therefrom in reliance upon Rules 430B or 430C under the Act and contained in the Prospectus referred to below, has become effective under the Act and no post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed as of the date of this Agreement. “Prospectus” means the form of prospectus relating to the Securities first filed with the Commission pursuant to and within the time limits described in Rule 424(b) under the Act and in accordance with Section 3(a)(i). Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or to the Prospectus or to any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing documents shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents incorporated by reference therein, and, in the case of any reference herein to the Prospectus, also shall be deemed to include any documents incorporated by reference therein, and any supplements or amendments thereto, filed with the Commission after the date of filing of the Prospectus under Rule 424(b) under the Act, and prior to the termination of the offering of the Securities by the Underwriters.

               (yy) The choice of the laws of the State of New York as the governing law of this Agreement is a valid choice of law under the laws of Canada and will be honored by courts in Canada, provided that such choice of law is bone fide (in the sense that it was not made with a view to avoiding the consequences of the laws of any other jurisdiction) and legal and provided that such choice of law is not contrary to public policy. The Company has the corporate power and capacity to submit, and, pursuant to Section 15 of this Agreement, has legally, validly, effectively and irrevocably submitted, to the personal jurisdiction of any court of the State of New York or the United State District Court for the Southern District of the State of New York (each, a “New York Court”) and has validly and irrevocably waived any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court; and the Company has the power to designate, appoint and authorize, and pursuant to Section 15 of this Agreement has legally, validly,

effectively and irrevocably designated, appointed and authorized, an authorized agent for service of process in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or the offering of the Securities in any New York Court, and service of process effected on such authorized agent will be effective to confer valid personal jurisdiction over the Company as provided in Section 15 of this Agreement.

               (zz) This Agreement is in proper form to be enforceable in Canada in accordance with its terms; to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility into evidence in Canada of this Agreement it is not necessary that this Agreement be filed or recorded with any court or other authority in Canada (other than court filings in the ordinary course of proceedings) or that any stamp or similar tax in Canada (other than nominal stamp or similar tax payable in the ordinary course of proceedings) be paid on or in respect of this Agreement or any other documents to be furnished hereunder or thereunder.

               (aaa) Any final judgment for a fixed or readily calculable sum of money rendered by a New York Court having jurisdiction under its own domestic laws in respect of any suit, action or proceeding against the Company based upon this Agreement and any instruments or agreements entered into for the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein that is not impeachable as void or voidable under the laws of the State of New York would be recognized and enforced against the Company without re-examination of the merits of the cause of action in respect of which the original judgment was given or re-litigation of the matters adjudicated upon or payment of any stamp, registration or similar tax or duty by the courts of Ontario (other than in the normal course of proceeding), provided that (A) such New York courts had proper jurisdiction over the parties subject to such judgment; (B) such judgment was not obtained by fraud or in a manner contrary to natural justice; (C) the enforcement of the judgment would not be contrary to public policy as such term is understood under the laws of Ontario or contrary to any order made by the Attorney General of Canada under the Foreign Extra-Territorial Measures Act (Canada); (D) no new admissible evidence relevant to the action is submitted prior to the rendering of the judgment by the courts of Canada; (E) there is due compliance with the correct procedures under the laws of Canada; (F) the enforcement of such judgment does not constitute directly or indirectly the enforcement of revenue expropriatory or penal laws; and (G) the action to enforce such judgment is commenced within the applicable limitation period under the laws of Ontario. The Company is not aware of any reason why the enforcement in Canada of such a New York Court judgment would be, as of the date hereof, contrary to public policy of Canada or contrary to the public policy, state sovereignty or security of the PRC.

               (bbb) The Company is aware of and has been advised as to, the content of the Rules on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors jointly promulgated by the Ministry of Commerce, the State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the State Tax Administration, the State Administration of Industry and Commerce, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) and the State Administration of Foreign

               (ccc) Based on the advice of the Company’s PRC counsel, the Company believes the issuance and sale of the Securities, the listing and trading of the Securities on the Nasdaq Global Market or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not and will not be, as of the date hereof or at the First Closing Date or at any Option Closing Date, subject to or adversely affected by the M&A Rules or any official clarifications, guidance, interpretations or implementation rules in connection with or related to the M&A Rules, including the clarification and notices issued by the CSRC on September 21, 2006 (the “M&A Rules and Related Clarifications”).

     Any certificate signed by any officer of the Company and delivered to the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed a representation and warranty by the Company, as to the matters covered thereby, to the Underwriters.

     Section 2. Purchase, Sale and Delivery of Securities.

               (a) On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to issue and sell the Firm Shares to the Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at a price of $32.215 per share (the “Purchase Price”), the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of each Underwriter in Schedule A, subject to adjustments in accordance with Section 7 hereof.

          The Firm Shares will be delivered by the Company to the account of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., for the account of each Underwriter, against payment of the Purchase Price therefor by wire transfer of same day funds payable to the order of the Company, by causing The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) or its designated custodian (the “Custodian”) to credit the Firm Shares to the account of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. at DTC, at 7:00 a.m., Pacific time, on July 22, 2008, or at such other time and date as the Representatives and the Company determine pursuant to Rule 15c6- 1(a) under the Exchange Act, such time and date of delivery being herein referred to as the “First Closing Date.”

               (b) On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants to the Underwriters an option to purchase the Option Shares at the price per share as set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 2 for the sole purpose of covering over-allotment sales of Securities in excess of the amount of Firm Shares, at their election within a period of 30 days beginning with the effective date of this Agreement. The option granted hereunder may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time within 30 days after the effective date of this Agreement upon notice (confirmed in writing) by the Representatives to the Company setting forth the amount of Option Shares to be purchased and the date and time, as determined by the Representatives, when the Option Shares are to be delivered, such date and time being herein referred to as an “Option Closing” and “Option Closing Date” (the First Closing Date and any Option Closing Date each being herein referred to as a “Closing Date”), respectively; provided, however, that no Option Closing Date shall be earlier than the First Closing Date nor, unless waived by the Company and the Representatives, earlier than the second business day after the date on which such notice is delivered by the Representatives. Such Option Shares shall be purchased from the Company for the account of each Underwriter in the same proportion as the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name in Schedule A hereto bears to the total number of Firm Shares (subject to adjustment by the Representatives to eliminate fractions). No Option Shares shall be sold and delivered unless the Firm Shares previously have been, or simultaneously are, sold and delivered.

          The Option Shares will be delivered by the Company to the account of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., for the account of each Underwriter, against payment of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of same day funds payable to the order of the Company, by causing DTC or its Custodian to credit the Option Shares to the account of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. at DTC, on each Option Closing Date.

     (ii) Each Representative, severally and not jointly, represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company, such Representative has not made and will not make any offer

relating to the Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) required to be filed with the Commission under Rule 433 under the Securities Act unless the Company approves its use in writing prior to the first use; provided that the prior written consent of the Company hereto shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus(es) included in Schedule B hereto.

     Section 4. Offering by the Underwriters. It is understood that the several Underwriters are to make a public offering of the Firm Shares as soon as the Representatives deem it advisable to do so. The Firm Shares are to be initially offered to the public at the initial public offering price set forth in the Prospectus. The Representatives may from time to time thereafter change the public offering price and other selling terms.

     Section 5. Conditions of Underwriters’ Obligations. The several obligations of the Underwriters hereunder are subject to the accuracy, as of the date hereof and at each of the First Closing Date and any Option Closing Date (as if made at the applicable Closing Date), of and compliance with all representations, warranties and agreements of the Company contained herein, to the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions:

               (a) The Registration Statement and all post-effective amendments thereto shall have become effective and the Prospectus and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed under the Act shall have been filed as required by Rules 424(b) (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8)), 430B, 430C or 433 under the Securities Act, as applicable, within the time period prescribed by, and in compliance with in all material respects, the rules and regulations thereunder, and any request of the Commission for additional information (to be included in the Registration Statement or otherwise) shall have been disclosed to the Representatives and the Company shall have complied with such request to their reasonable satisfaction. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, as amended from time to time, shall have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A under the Securities Act shall have been taken or, to the knowledge of the Company, shall be contemplated or threatened by the Commission.

               (b) Except as contemplated in the Registration Statement, in the General Disclosure Package and in the Prospectus, subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the General Disclosure Package, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries shall have incurred any material liabilities or obligations, direct or contingent, or entered into any material transactions, or declared or paid any dividends or made any distribution of any kind with respect to its capital stock; and there shall not have been any change in the capital stock (other than a change in the number of outstanding Common Shares due to the issuance of shares upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants), or any material change in the short- term or long-term debt of the Company, or any issuance of options, warrants, convertible securities or other rights to purchase the capital stock of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or any material adverse change or any development involving a prospective material adverse change (whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business), or any loss by strike, fire, flood, earthquake, accident or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, incurred by the

Company or any subsidiary, the effect of which, in any such case described above, in the judgment of the Representatives, makes it impractical or inadvisable to offer or deliver the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Registration Statement, in the General Disclosure Package and in the Prospectus.

               (c) On each Closing Date, there shall have been furnished to the Representatives, the opinions of each of:

               (f) On each Closing Date, there shall have been furnished to the Representatives, a certificate dated such Closing Date and addressed to the Representatives as representatives of the Underwriters, signed by the chief executive officer and by the chief financial officer of the Company, to the effect that:

                    (1) The representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true and correct, in all material respects, as if made at and as of such Closing Date, and the Company has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to such Closing Date.

                    (2) The signers of said certificate have carefully examined the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, and any amendments thereof or supplements thereto (including any documents filed under the Exchange Act and are or are deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus), and:

                         (B) All filings required to have been made pursuant to Rules 424(b), 430B or 430C under the Securities Act have been made as and when required by such rules;

                         (C) the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, does not include and did not include as of its date, or such Closing Date, any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state and did not omit to state as of its date, or such Closing Date, a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made;

The Company will furnish the Underwriters with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents as the Underwriters shall reasonably request.

     Section 6. Indemnification and Contribution.

               (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Underwriter may

become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Securities (“Marketing Materials”), including any roadshow or investor presentations made to investors by the Company (whether in person or electronically) or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending against such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, or in any Marketing Materials, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representatives specifically for use in the preparation thereof.

               In addition to its other obligations under this Section 6(a), the Company agrees that, as an interim measure during the pendency of any claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding arising out of or based upon any statement or omission, or any alleged statement or omission, described in this Section 6(a), the Company will reimburse such Underwriter on a monthly basis for all reasonable legal fees or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding, notwithstanding the absence of a judicial determination as to the propriety and enforceability of the Company’s obligation to reimburse such Underwriter for such expenses and the possibility that such payments might later be held to have been improper by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that any such interim reimbursement payment is so held to have been improper, such Underwriter shall promptly return it to the party or parties that made such payment, together with interest, compounded daily, determined on the basis of the prime rate (or other commercial lending rate for borrowers of the highest credit standing) announced from time to time by a U.S. bank selected by such Underwriter (the “Prime Rate”). Any such interim reimbursement payments which are not made to such Underwriter within 30 days of a request for reimbursement shall bear interest at the Prime Rate from the date of such request. This indemnity agreement shall be in addition to any liabilities which the Company may otherwise have.

               (b) Each Underwriter will indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Underwriter), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or

supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives, specifically for use in the preparation thereof, and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action.

               (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent such indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such failure. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of the indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

               The indemnifying party under this Section 6 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this Section 6, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (a) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (b) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

               (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus or in this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters and the parties’ relevant intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d). The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending against any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities were offered exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. The Underwriters’ obligations in this subsection (d) are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

               (e) The obligations of the Company under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 6 shall be in addition to any liability that the Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each director of the Company, to each officer of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.

               (f) The Underwriters confirm and the Company acknowledges that the statements with respect to the offering of the Securities by the Underwriters set forth in the first and second sentence of the third paragraph and in the ninth and tenth paragraphs under the section

entitled “Underwriting” in the General Disclosure Package and in the Prospectus are correct and constitute the only information concerning such Underwriters furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Underwriters through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus.

     Section 7. Default of Underwriters. If any one or more Underwriters defaults in its or their obligation to purchase Securities hereunder on either the First Closing Date or, if the option to purchase the Option Shares has been exercised, any Option Closing Date and the aggregate principal amount of Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Securities by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by such Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Securities that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on such Closing Date. If any Underwriter or Underwriters so default and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs exceeds 10% of the total principal amount of Securities that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters and the Company for the purchase of such Securities by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except as provided in Section 8 (provided that if such default occurs with respect to Option Shares after the First Closing Date, this Agreement shall not terminate as to the Firm Shares or any Option Shares purchased prior to such termination). As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 7. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters from liability for its default.

     Section 8. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties, and agreements of the Company herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto, including but not limited to the agreements of the Underwriters and the Company contained in Section 6 hereof, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or any controlling person thereof, or the Company or any of its officers, directors, or controlling persons, and shall survive delivery of, and payment for, the Securities to and by the Underwriters hereunder.

     Section 9. Termination of this Agreement.

               (a) The Representatives, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving notice to the Company as hereinafter specified at any time at or prior to the First Closing Date, and the option referred to in Section 2(b), if exercised, may be cancelled at any time prior to any Option Closing Date, if (i) the Company shall have failed, refused or been unable, at or prior to such Closing Date, to perform any agreement on its part to be performed hereunder, (ii) any condition of the Underwriters’ obligations hereunder is not fulfilled, (iii) trading in the Company’s Common Shares shall have been suspended by the Commission or the Nasdaq Stock Market or trading in securities generally on the Nasdaq Global Market, New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange shall have been suspended, (iv) minimum

or maximum prices for trading shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been required, on the Nasdaq Global Market, New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange, by such Exchange or by order of the Commission or any other governmental authority having jurisdiction, (v) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by federal or state or local authorities in the United States, Canada or the PRC, (vi) there shall have occurred any attack on, outbreak or escalation of hostilities or act of terrorism involving the United States, Canada or the PRC, any declaration by the United States, Canada or the PRC of a national emergency or war, any change in financial markets, any substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States or international political, financial or economic conditions, or any other calamity or crisis that, in the judgment of the Representatives, is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the sale of and payment for the Securities. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 3(o) and Section 6 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination.

               (b) If the Representatives elect to terminate this Agreement as provided in this Section 9, the Company shall be notified promptly by the Representatives by telephone, confirmed by letter.

     Section 10. Default by the Company.

               (a) If the Company shall fail at the First Closing Date or any Option Closing Date to sell and deliver the aggregate principal amount of Securities which it is obligated to sell hereunder, then this Agreement shall terminate without any liability on the part of the Underwriters.

               (b) No action taken pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve the Company so defaulting from liability, if any, in respect of such default.

     Section 11. Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, all communications hereunder shall be in writing and, if to the Underwriters, shall be mailed, delivered or telecopied to the Representatives at the offices set forth under the name of each Representative on Schedule A hereto, with a copy to Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation, 650 Page Mill Road, Palo Alto, California 94304, Attention: John A.

     Section 12. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and the controlling persons, officers and directors referred to in Section 6. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give to any other person, firm or corporation any legal or equitable remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. The term

“successors and assigns” as herein used shall not include any purchaser, as such purchaser, of any of the Securities from the Underwriters.

     Section 13. Research Analyst Independence. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters’ research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that the Underwriters’ research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish research reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering that differ from the views of their investment banking divisions. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against any Underwriter with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by their independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company by any Underwriter’s investment banking divisions. The Company acknowledges that each Underwriter is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     Section 14. Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that: (a) each Underwriter has been retained solely to act as an Underwriter in connection with the sale of the Securities and that no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Company and such Underwriter has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or are advising the Company on other matters; (b) the price and other terms of the Securities set forth in this Agreement were established by the Company following discussions and arms-length negotiations with the several Underwriters and the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (c) it has been advised that each Underwriter and its affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve interests that differ from those of the Company and that each Underwriter has no obligation to disclose such interest and transactions to the Company by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; (d) it has been advised that each Underwriter is acting, in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, solely for the benefit of such Underwriter and not on behalf of the Company; (e) it waives to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against each Underwriter for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and agrees that no Underwriter shall have liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including shareholders, employees or creditors of the Company.

     Section 15. Submission to Jurisdiction, Etc.

If the U.S. dollars or other applicable currency so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Underwriter hereunder, the Underwriter agrees to pay to the Company an amount equal to the excess of the U.S. dollars or other applicable currency so purchased over the sum originally due to such Underwriter hereunder.

OPINION OF LATHAM & WATKINS LLP,
COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY

     The opinion of Latham & Watkins LLP, counsel for the Company, to be delivered pursuant to Section 5(c)(1) of the Agreement shall be to the effect that:

     1. The Underwriting Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

     2. The execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Shares by the Company to you and the other Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement do not on the date hereof:

          (i) result in the breach of or a default under any of the Specified Agreements;

          (ii) violate any federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company; or

          (iii) require any consents, approvals, or authorizations to be obtained by the Company from, or any registrations, declarations or filings to be made by the Company with, any governmental authority under any federal or New York statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company on or prior to the date hereof.

     3. The Registration Statement has become effective under the Act. With your consent, based solely on a telephonic confirmation by a member of the Staff of the Commission on July 22, 2008, we confirm that no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Act and no proceedings therefor have been initiated by the Commission. The Preliminary Prospectus has been filed in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the Act, and the Prospectus has been filed in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the Act.

     4. The Registration Statement at July 14, 2008, including the information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430B under the Act, and the Prospectus, as of its date, each appeared on its face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable form requirements for registration statements on Form F-3 under the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder; it being understood, however, that we express no view with respect to Regulation S-T or the financial statements, schedules, or other financial data, included in, incorporated by reference in, or omitted from, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus. For purposes of this paragraph, we have assumed that the statements made in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus are correct and complete.

     5. Assuming that the Underwriting Agreement is a valid and binding agreement of the Company, pursuant to Sections 15 and 20 of the Underwriting Agreement, under the laws of the State of New York the Company has validly (i) chosen New York law to govern its rights and duties under the Underwriting Agreement, (ii) submitted to the personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York in connection with an action or

proceeding arising out of or related to the Underwriting Agreement, (iii) to the extent permitted by law, waived any objection to the venue of a proceeding in any such court, and (iv) appointed CT Corporation System as its initial authorized agent for the purpose described in Section 15. Service of process in the manner described in Section 16 of the Underwriting Agreement will be effective to confer valid personal jurisdiction over the Company in connection with an action or proceeding arising out of or related to the Purchase Agreement in any such court.

     6. The statements in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus under the caption “Shares Available for Future Sale” and “Underwriting,” insofar as they purport to describe or summarize certain provisions of the documents or U.S. federal laws referred to therein, are accurate descriptions or summaries in all material respects.

     7. The Company is not, and immediately after giving effect to the sale of the Shares in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement and the application of the proceeds as described in the Prospectus under the caption “Use of Proceeds,” will not be required to be, registered as an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

     8. To the best of our knowledge, there are no contracts or documents of a character required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement that are not so described or filed.

     9. Based on such facts and subject to the limitations set forth in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, the statements in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus under the caption “Taxation — Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” insofar as such statements purport to constitute summaries of United States federal income tax law and regulations or legal conclusions with respect thereto, constitute accurate summaries of the matters described therein in all material respects.

     10. The primary purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters or financial or quantitative information. Therefore, we are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in, or incorporated by reference in, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Information Annex, or the Prospectus, (or the Incorporated Documents), (except to the extent expressly set forth in the numbered paragraph 6 of our letter to you of even date and in our letter to you of even date with respect to certain tax matters), and have not made an independent check or verification thereof (except as aforesaid). However, in the course of acting as special United States counsel to the Company in connection with the preparation by the Company of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Information Annex, and the Prospectus, we reviewed the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Information Annex, the Prospectus, and the Incorporated Documents, and participated in conferences and telephone conversations with officers and other representatives of the Company, Canadian and People’s Republic of China to the Company, the independent public accountants for the Company, your representatives, and your counsel, during which conferences and conversations the contents of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Information Annex, and the Prospectus (and portions of the Incorporated Documents) and related matters were discussed. We also reviewed and relied upon certain corporate records and documents, letters from counsel and

accountants, and oral and written statements of officers and other representatives of the Company and others as to the existence and consequence of certain factual and other matters.

     Based on our participation, review and reliance as described above, we advise you that no facts came to our attention that caused us to believe that:

	•		the Registration Statement, at July ___, 2008 (which is its most recent effective date), including the information deemed to be a part of the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430B under the Act (together with the Incorporated Documents at that time), contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;
	•		the Preliminary Prospectus (together with the Incorporated Documents at the Applicable Time), and when taken together with the Pricing Information Annex, at the Applicable Time, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or
	•		the Prospectus, as of its date or as of the date hereof, (together with the Incorporated Documents at those dates) contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

it being understood that we express no belief with respect to the financial statements, schedules, or other financial data included or incorporated by reference in, or omitted from, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Information Annex, the Prospectus, or the Incorporated Documents, or the Form T-1.

OPINION OF WEIRFOULDS LLP,
CANADIAN COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY

     The opinion of WeirFoulds LLP, Canadian counsel for the Company, to be delivered pursuant to Section 5(c)(2) of the Agreement shall be to the effect that:

     A. The Company has been continued and organized, and is existing under the CBCA, and has the corporate power to own and lease its property, and to carry on its business as described in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

     B. The Company is duly registered or qualified to transact business and is good standing in the Province of Ontario.

     C. The Company has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver the Underwriting Agreement and to perform its obligations thereunder.

     D. The execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement by the Company and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company.

     E. The Underwriting Agreement has been duly executed by the Company and, to the extent that delivery of such agreement is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario or the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, duly delivered by the Company.

     F. The execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement by the Company and the performance of its obligations thereunder will not contravene, conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under, whether after notice or lapse of time, or both, (i) the articles or by-laws of the Company; (ii) any resolution of the directors (or any committee of directors) or shareholders of the Company; (iii) any laws of the Province of Ontario or federal laws of Canada applicable therein (“Ontario Law”); (iv) any agreement or instrument listed on Schedule “E” to this opinion which the Company is a party or by which the Company or its properties may be bound; or (v) to the best of our knowledge, any judgment, order or decree of any governmental body, agency or court in Ontario having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

     G. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or qualification with, any governmental body or agency in Canada governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario or the federal laws of Canada applicable therein is required for (a) the valid execution and delivery by the Company of the Underwriting Agreement, (b) the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement, (c) the sale by the Company of the Securities under the Underwriting Agreement, and (d) the issuance by the Company of the Securities under the Underwriting Agreement; provided that no opinion is expressed with respect to any offer, issuance and sale of the Securities, in any province or territory of Canada.

     H. The authorized capital stock of the Company conforms as to legal matters to the description thereof contained in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the heading “Description of Share Capital”, namely an unlimited number of Common Shares and an unlimited number of preference shares issuable in series. No holder of Common Shares is or will be subject to personal liability for any act, default, obligation or liability of the Company solely by reason of being such a holder.

     I. Based solely on the Officer’s Certificate, and our review of the minute book of the Company, all of the Common Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the date of the Underwriting Agreement have been duly and validly authorized and issued, and are fully paid and non-assessable.

     J. The Securities to be purchased by the Underwriters from the Company on such Closing Date have been duly authorized and, when issued by the Company and paid for by the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable; the Securities conform to the description thereof contained in the General Disclosure Package and Prospectus.

     K. There are no restrictions on the first trade or transfer of the Securities following their issue, sale and delivery by the Company under the articles or by-laws of the Company or the CBCA; provided that no opinion is given with respect to any Canadian securities laws (including, without limitation, any Securities Laws, or any regulations and rules made pursuant to such laws together with all published blanket orders, policy statements, decisions and notices of the securities commissions in each province or territory of Canada, and the National Policy Statements, National Instruments and Multilateral Instruments adopted and applied by any of such jurisdictions) that may be applicable to any such first trade or transfer of the Securities by or to any person in any province or territory of Canada or subject to such laws.

     L. The filing of the Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission has been duly authorized by and on behalf of the Company.

     M. To the best of our knowledge, the Company has all franchises, permits, authorizations, approvals and orders and other licenses and concessions of and from all governmental bodies or agencies in Canada governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario or the federal laws of Canada applicable therein that are necessary to own or lease its properties located in Ontario and to conduct its business as described in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus to the extent currently conducted in Ontario except for such licenses, franchises, permits, authorizations, approvals and orders the failure of which to obtain will not have a Material Adverse Effect (as such term is defined in the Underwriting Agreement).

     N. To the best of our knowledge, other than as set forth in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there are no legal or governmental proceedings in Canada that are pending to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party is the subject which, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect on the current or future consolidated financial position, shareholders’ equity or results of operations of

the Company and to the best of our knowledge, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated by any governmental body or agency in Canada governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario or the federal laws of Canada applicable therein or threatened by others.

     O. To the best of our knowledge, the Company is not in violation of any provision of its articles, by-laws, or other organizational documents.

     P. The statements set forth under the captions “Risk Factors — You may have difficulty enforcing judgments obtained against us”, “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities” and “Description of Share Capital” in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and under the captions “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees — “Duties of Directors,” “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees — Interested Transactions,” “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees — Remuneration and Borrowing,” and “Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees — Qualification” in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F, insofar as such statements constitute matters of law or legal conclusions only , have been reviewed by us and fairly present the information disclosed therein in all material respects.

     Q. Subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations set out therein, the statements set forth in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the caption “Taxation —Federal Income Tax Considerations” fairly summarize, in all material respects, the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable to a holder of Securities who acquires such securities pursuant to the offering contemplated therein.

     R. No stamp duty, documentary taxes or similar taxes are payable by the Company under the federal laws of Canada or the laws of the Province of Ontario in connection with the issuance, sale and delivery of the Securities by the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement.

     S. A court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Ontario (an “Ontario Court”) would give effect, as set out in Paragraph T below, to the choice of the laws of the State of New York (“New York Law”) to govern the interpretation of the Underwriting Agreement in any action before such court, provided that such choice of law is bona fide (in the sense that it was not made with a view to avoiding the consequences of the laws of any other jurisdiction) and legal and provided that such choice of law is not contrary to public policy, as such term is understood under Ontario Law. To the best of our knowledge, the choice of New York Law to govern the interpretation of the Underwriting Agreement was not made with a view to avoiding the consequences of the laws of any other jurisdiction and would not be contrary to public policy, as such term is understood under Ontario Law.

     T. If the Underwriting Agreement is sought to be enforced in the Province of Ontario in accordance with the laws applicable thereto as chosen by the parties, namely New York Law, an Ontario Court would, subject to Paragraph S above, upon appropriate evidence as to such law being adduced, apply such law, provided that none of the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement or of applicable New York Law is contrary to public policy, as that term is understood under Ontario Law; provided, however, that, in matters of procedure, the Ontario Law will be applied, and that an

Ontario Court will retain discretion to decline to hear such action if it is contrary to public policy, as that term is applied by an Ontario Court, or if it is not the proper forum to hear such an action, or if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere. Insofar as we are aware, none of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement are contrary to public policy, as that term is understood under the laws of the Province of Ontario, and accordingly, it would not be contrary to public policy for an Ontario Court to hear an action or proceeding to enforce the Underwriting Agreement in Ontario.

     U. The laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein permit an action to be brought in an Ontario Court on a final and conclusive judgment in personam of a court in the State of New York (a “New York Court”) that is subsisting and unsatisfied respecting the enforcement of the Underwriting Agreement and that is not impeachable as void or voidable under New York Law for a sum certain if: (A) the court rendering such judgment had jurisdiction over the judgment debtor as recognized by the Ontario Court (and the submission to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Court by the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement will be sufficient for that purpose, provided that the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement regarding the service of process on the Company are duly complied with); (B) such judgment was not obtained by fraud or in a manner contrary to natural justice and the enforcement thereof would not be inconsistent with public policy as such term is understood under the laws of the Province of Ontario or contrary to any order made by the Attorney General of Canada under the Foreign Extraterritorial Measures Act (Canada) or by the Competition Tribunal under the Competition Act (Canada) in respect of certain judgments referred to therein; (C) the enforcement of such judgment does not constitute, directly or indirectly, the enforcement of foreign revenue, expropriatory or penal laws; and (D) the action to enforce such judgment is commenced within the applicable limitation periods under the laws of the Province of Ontario. It would not be contrary to public policy, as that term is understood under the laws of the Province of Ontario, for an Ontario Court to enforce such a judgment of a New York Court in Ontario.

     V. All dividends and other distributions declared and payable on the Common Shares to be paid in Canadian dollars may under the federal laws of Canada or the laws of the Province of Ontario be converted into foreign currency that, subject to any applicable withholding taxes, may be freely transferred out of Canada, without the necessity of obtaining any permit, authorization, approval or order from any governmental body or agency in Canada governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario or the federal laws of Canada applicable in Ontario.

     W. The form of definitive share certificate representing the Common Shares attached hereto as Schedule “F” has been duly approved by the Company, and complies with the articles and by-laws of the Company and with the requirements of the CBCA.

EXHIBIT C

OPINION OF CHEN & CO. LAW FIRM,
PRC COUNSEL FOR THE COMPANY

     The opinion of Chen & Co. Law Firm, PRC counsel for the Company, to be delivered pursuant to Section 5(c)(3) of the Agreement shall be to the effect that:

     A. Each PRC Subsidiary has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a wholly foreign-owned enterprise with legal person status in good standing under the laws of the PRC and has the corporate power to own and lease the properties it purports to own and lease, to conduct the business in which it is engaged as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. Except for CSI Central Solar Power Co., Ltd. and CSI Solar Power Inc., the registered capital of the PRC Subsidiaries has been duly paid up. Except as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, the registered capital of the PRC Subsidiaries is owned by the Company directly, free and clear of any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance, claim or equity or any third-party right.

     B. Each PRC Subsidiary has the legal right, power and authority (corporate and other) to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. Except as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, each PRC Subsidiary possesses such approvals, consents, waivers, sanctions, authorizations, filings, registrations, exemptions, permissions, endorsements, qualifications and licenses (“Approvals”) of the appropriate national, provincial, municipal and local regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business now operated by it as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and such Approvals are in full force and effect. To the best of our knowledge after due and reasonable inquiries, no PRC Subsidiary has received any oral or written notice of proceedings relating to the suspension, revocation or modification of any such Approval, and we are not aware, after due and reasonable inquiries, of any reason that will cause it to reasonably believe that such Approvals (including any that are subject to periodic renewal) will not be renewed by the relevant PRC authority.

     C. All Approvals in the PRC required for the establishment and the maintenance of the enterprise legal person status of each PRC Subsidiary have been duly issued and obtained and all such Approvals are valid and in full force and effect, have not been revoked, withdrawn, suspended or cancelled and are not subject to any condition other than the timely contribution of capital by the Company as required by PRC laws and regulations, and the annual inspection conducted by relevant government authorities, where applicable. Each PRC Subsidiary has complied with all applicable registration and filing requirements under PRC law for its establishment and the maintenance of its status and existence as an enterprise legal person.

     D. Each PRC Subsidiary can legally conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and, to the best of our knowledge after due and reasonable inquiries, the PRC Subsidiaries are not (i) in violation of their

articles of association or other constituent or organizational documents, their business licenses, (ii) in violation of any law or regulation of the PRC, or (iii) in default in the performance or observance of any material obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument known to us and to which any PRC Subsidiary is a party or by which it or any of their respective properties is bound except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, where such violation or default would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and its PRC Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

     E. Each PRC Subsidiary has proper title or right of use to all real property and proper title to all personal property owned by it, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except for the mortgage by CSI Cells Co., Ltd. of its land use right and facilities located on the same land to the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Suzhou Branch, and the Bank of Communications, Suzhou Branch as collateral for a mortgage agreement, or such as are described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, or such as do not materially affect the value of such property or do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the PRC Subsidiaries; and all assets held under lease by the PRC Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases, with such exceptions as do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such assets by the Company and its PRC Subsidiaries.

     F. Each PRC Subsidiary has taken all necessary corporate and other actions and fulfilled all conditions and completed all actions and things, if any, required by applicable PRC law (including the obtaining and possessing of all relevant Approvals, if any) for the entering into, execution, adoption, assumption, issue, delivery or the performance of their respective obligations under the Agreement, and the representatives of each PRC Subsidiary (as the case may be) have been duly authorized to do so and no such Approval has been revoked or amended. No additional approvals are required from the China Securities Regulatory Commission, the State Council or any other authority in the PRC for the performance by the PRC Subsidiaries of the transaction contemplated under the Agreement in accordance with the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Enterprises which came into effect on September 8, 2006 and were further clarified on September 21, 2006 and were subsequently modified by implementing rules and clarifications.

     G. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of its obligations under the Agreement do not and will not contravene or result in a breach or violation of (a) the articles of association of any PRC Subsidiary; (b) any agreement, instrument, arbitration award or judgment, order or decree, by which the Company or its PRC Subsidiaries is bound and which are known to us after due and reasonable inquiries, of any government authority or court in the PRC; or (c), any agreement or instrument by which the Company or its PRC Subsidiaries is bound and which is governed by PRC law known to us after due and reasonable inquiries (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes all such agreements and instruments listed on Exhibit D to the Underwriting Agreement or filed as exhibits to the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F).

     H. No PRC Subsidiary is entitled to any immunity from any legal proceedings or other legal process or from enforcement, execution or attachment in respect of their obligations in the transactions contemplated under the Agreement.

     I. All dividends and other distributions declared in Renminbi and payable by any PRC Subsidiary to the Company may be converted into foreign currency and transferred out of the PRC in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations of the PRC and the articles of association of each PRC Subsidiary.

     J. To the best of our knowledge after due and reasonable inquiries, there is not any action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, pending or threatened, to which any PRC Subsidiary is a party, or to which the property of such PRC Subsidiary is subject, before or brought by any court or governmental agency or body in the PRC, which might reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or which might reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the properties or assets thereof or the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Agreement or the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

     K. The information under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and under the captions “Item 3. Key Information — Exchange Rate Information,” “Item 4. Information on the Company — Government Regulation,” “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions” in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F, to the extent that it constitutes summaries of PRC law or legal conclusions in respect of PRC law, or summaries of PRC legal proceedings, or summarizes the terms and provisions of documents governed by PRC law, has been reviewed by us and is correct and accurate in all material respects; and our opinion set forth under “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities” in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus is confirmed. To the best of our knowledge, there are no current PRC statutes or regulations that might, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and the PRC Subsidiaries taken as a whole except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

     L. The choice of the laws of the State of New York as the governing law of the Agreement is a valid choice of law under the laws of the PRC and courts of the PRC will honor this choice of law.

     M. No transaction tax, stamp duty or similar tax or duty or withholding or other taxes are payable by or on behalf of the Underwriter in the PRC with respect to (a) the sale and delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Agreement and the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, (b) the holding or transfer of the Securities outside the PRC, or (c) the execution, delivery or enforcement of the Agreement. Under the laws of the PRC, the Company is not a resident of the PRC.

     O. To the best of our knowledge after due and reasonable inquiries, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, no PRC Subsidiary is in breach of the terms and conditions of any Approvals and there are no circumstances existing which might lead to suspension, revocation or withdrawal of any such Approvals or any conditions attached thereto being adversely altered.

     P. To the best of our knowledge after due and reasonable inquiries, no PRC Subsidiary has taken any action nor have any steps been taken or legal or administrative proceedings been commenced or threatened for the winding up, dissolution or liquidation of any PRC Subsidiary (as the case may be) or for the suspension, withdrawal, revocation or cancellation of any of their respective business licenses.

     Q. To the extent disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, each PRC Subsidiary possesses valid licenses in the patents in full force and effect or otherwise, in terms of the patents and trademarks disclosed in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, has the legal right to use, or can acquire on reasonable terms, all material patents, patent rights, licenses, inventions, copyrights, know-how (including trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures), trademarks, service marks and trade names currently employed by them, and to the best of our knowledge after due and reasonable inquiries no PRC Subsidiary has received any notice of infringement of or conflict with asserted rights of others with respect to any of the foregoing.

     W. After due and reasonable inquiries, no facts insofar as they relate to matters of or relating to PRC law, PRC legal proceedings, or agreements or documents governed by PRC law have come to our attention which would lead us to believe that (i) the Registration Statement, at the time it became effective on July 14, 2008, including the information deemed to be part of the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the Securities Act, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (ii) the General Disclosure Package, as of the Applicable Time or as of the Closing Date, contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (iii) the Offering Memorandum, as of its issue date or as of the Closing Date, contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

     Re: Proposed Offering of Common Shares by Canadian Solar Inc.

     Ladies and Gentlemen:

     The undersigned understands that each of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Piper Jaffray & Co. will act as representatives (together, the “Representatives”) of the Underwriters (the “Underwriters”) who propose to enter into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Canadian Solar Inc. (the “Company”), providing for the offering (the “Offering”) of 3,500,000 common shares (the “Offered Securities”), no par value, of the Company (the “Common Shares”) pursuant to the Company’s registration statement to be filed on form F-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”).

     In consideration of the Underwriters’ agreement to purchase the Offered Securities and make the Offering, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby irrevocably agrees that without the prior written consent of each Representative (which consent may be withheld in each Representative’s sole discretion), the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the Offering and ending 90 days after the date of the Underwriting Agreement (including any extension thereof pursuant to the following paragraph, the “Lock-Up Period”), directly or indirectly: (1) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of the Common Shares, or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Common Shares, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned; (2) enter into any swap, derivative, or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Shares, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for the Common Shares, regardless of whether any such transaction described herein is to be settled by delivery of the Common Shares or such other securities, or by delivery of cash or otherwise; (3) make

any demand for, or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any of the Common Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Common Shares; or (4) publicly announce any intention to do any of the foregoing.

     Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if:

	(1)		during the last 18 days of the Lock-Up Period the Company issues an earnings release or a release announcing material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or
	(2)		prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the Lock-Up Period,

     the Lock-Up Period shall be extended and the restrictions imposed by this letter shall continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the date of issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event, as applicable, unless the Representatives waive, in writing, such extension.

     The undersigned hereby acknowledges and agrees that, to extend the Lock-Up Period pursuant to the previous paragraph, written notice of any extension of the Lock-Up Period shall be delivered by the Representatives to the Company (in accordance with the notice provision in the Underwriting Agreement) and that any such notice properly delivered will be deemed to have been given to, and received by, the undersigned. The undersigned further agrees that, prior to engaging in any transaction or taking any other action that is subject to the terms of this Lock-up Agreement during the period from the date of this Lock-up Agreement to and including the 34^th day following the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, it will give notice thereof to the Company and will not consummate such transaction or take any such action unless it has received written confirmation from the Company that the Lock-Up Period (as may have been extended pursuant to the previous paragraph) has expired.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions on the undersigned described in this Lock-Up Agreement shall not apply to:

	(1)		any Common Shares acquired by the undersigned in open market transactions after completion of the Offering;
	(2)		the transfer of any securities of the Company by means of a bona fide gift or, upon death of the undersigned, by will or intestate succession to the undersigned’s immediate family (which, when used herein, shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption not more remote than first cousin);
	(3)		the transfer of any securities of the Company to a trust, the beneficiaries of which are exclusively the undersigned or members of the undersigned’s immediate family; or
	(4)		the sale of any Common Shares effected pursuant to sales plans compliant with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in effect (without amendment or modification) on the date hereof;

provided, however, that in all cases under clauses (1) through (3) above, (i) the undersigned provides prior written notice of any transfer to the Representatives, (ii) the transferee or distributee, as applicable, agrees to be bound in writing by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement prior to such transfer and (iii) no filing by any party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with such transfer (other than a filing on Form 4, Form 5, a Schedule 13D or a Schedule 13G required to be made after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period).

     The undersigned hereby agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent against the transfer of securities of the Company held by the undersigned, except in compliance with this Lock-Up Agreement.

     It is understood that the undersigned will be immediately released from the undersigned’s obligations under this Lock-Up Agreement in the event (i) the Underwriting Agreement is not executed by the parties on or before September 30, 2008, (ii) the Company notifies the Representatives prior to the execution of the Underwriting Agreement in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering, or (iii) the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Securities pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement.

     The undersigned recognizes that the Offering will benefit the undersigned and the Company. The undersigned acknowledges that the Underwriters are relying on the representations and agreements of the undersigned contained in this Lock-Up Agreement in carrying out the Offering and in entering into the Underwriting Agreement.
