Another partner will be aerodyn products + trading Ltd., a subsidiary of aerodyn ASIA Co. Ltd; having its registered office in Shanghai. The said company will be in charge of the technical support for assembly, erection and testing of the prototype WECS as well as the provision of consultancy services to the Licensee during series production.
The enterprises and persons involved in the SCD project on the part of the Licensor are described in the organisational chart enclosed herewith as Annex 1.
B. The Idea of the SCD Concept
The idea of the SCD concept was developed on the basis of the Multibrid technology. The Multibrid concept was developed by aerodyn Energiesysteme GmbH between 1998 and 2004, thereby laying the foundations of another forward-looking technology. The development know-how of aerodyn Energiesysteme also has some influence on the project in the case of the SCD Technology.
The technical concept of the SCD Technology is based on the fact that the main drive train components such as rotor bearing, gear and generator are designed as a compact unit. The two casings of gear and generator are integrated into the load flow resulting from the rotor in the tower; loads are transferred via the casings.
Further features: The tower head is built in a lightweight and compact manner, the system does not require a nacelle casing, and the Wind Energy Converter System is equipped with a two-blade rotor. All these features result in a low-cost manufacturing concept. A minor disadvantage of this concept is a slightly higher noise emission, which has an influence on the choice of location.
Since the end of 2005, aerodyn Energiesysteme has worked intensively on the innovative SCD concept in order to prove the feasibility of this concept in practice. All main components have been designed provisionally to estimate dimensions and costs. Moreover, external specialists have been called in to examine gear design, generator design and overall dynamics, i.e. the dynamic behaviour of the entire system.

Annex 1 Licensor’s Organization Chart
Annex 1, License Agreement SCD [Rev. A 2008-6-18]
Annex 2 Technical Features of Onshore WECSs
of 2.5 to 3 MW
1. Concept Description of onshore WECs of 2.5 to 3MW
a. Consistent Light Weight
In the development of SCD, the greatest importance is attached to the low weight of nacelle and rotor. This simplifies the transport considerably and allows a safe and fast installation, since the nacelle can be lifted as one complete unit on top of the tower. Moreover, the low nacelle weight ensures the use of highly cost effective foundation structures.
b. Durable Reliability
Reliability, the decisive factor for the operation of WEC, is an integral element of the SCD concept. The lower rotational speed-level and the small number of rotating parts and roller bearings reduce the risk of damage in the drive train to a minimum.
c. Hermetic Encapsulation
The permanent protection of the converter’s technology from atmosphere is the basic precondition for a long life time. Therefore nacelle and hub of SCD are hermetically encapsulated against the ambient air. An air treatment system filters the air throughout all weather and operational conditions and provides that the plant’s interior is not affected by corrosion through salt and humidity.
d. Efficient Compactness
The drive train of SCD involves from the combination of the advantages of conventional turbine concepts. The intelligent integration of the rotor bearing, gear system and generator allows an extraordinary compact design and a very effective utilization of the main components. At the same time this leads to short load paths from the rotor to the lower head. Accordingly the compactness is not an end in itself, but the result of a consequential implementation of the requirements on WECs. Moreover, to ensure the easy assembly, the gearbox and generator are integrated in two different casting parts.
e. Rotor
The two rotor blades are the main concept of this SCD technology. Two independent hydraulic blade pitch system guarantee a highly dynamic blade angle adjustment and maximum safety in case of failure. The aerodynamic of the rotor blades are well-designed and provide low loads. This two rotor blades can also park horizontally in case of extreme wind speed.
Annex 2, License Agreement of SCD (2008-07-28)
Page 1 of 4
f. Rotor Bearing/Gearbox
A double tapered roller bearing in TDO-configuration transfers the rotor loads from the hub into the machine housing. Bearing and gearbox are arranged in such a way that the dynamic rotor-loads can not have a harmful impact on the tooth engagements. The planetary gear is driven by the hollow wheel and the planetary shafts are fixed in a stationary cage. Hereby the shafts running on friction bearings as well as the gear meshing can be lubricated ideally.
g. Generator/Converter
The stator of the permanent magnet synchronous generator is directly installed into the generator frame which includes the cooling system. By using the permanent magnet technology highest efficiency degrees are achieved at nominal load as well as in partial load operation. The generator is connected to the grid via a 4Q converter, which allows maximum speed variability and full compliance with all grid codes.
h. fluid unit
The fluid unit consists of water cooling system of generator, the hydraulic unit for brakes, rotor lock and pitch system, lubrication and cooling for gear box. This fluid unit is fixed on the base plate inside the head carrier; the integrated heat exchanger gets the outside air through air channel. The warm air goes out through the second air channel, thus, no outside air comes into the nacelle.

Annex 3 Technical Features of Offshore WECSs
of 5 to 6 MW
1. Concept description of offshore 5 to 6MW
The concept description of offshore refers to Annex 2. For the offshore turbine 5.0/6.0MW, the following features are also covered:
a. Reliability
Additionally for the 5.0/6.0 MW offshore turbine, all auxiliary-aggregates and sensors that are indispensable for the operation are installed in duplicate in order to avoid that a failure of these parts will lead to a standstill of the overall system.
b. Air Treatment
An air treatment system is located at the tower bottom, which takes in ambient air and separates water and salt particles. An overpressure in lower and nacelle is built up with the treated air and secures a controlled volume flow through the turbine. With a pressure difference monitoring system it is possible to eliminate any intrusion of untreated air. In addition, the temperature in the nacelle is adjusted by variation of the air flow.

Annex 8:
Prototype Report
The requirements for prototype testing are set forth in Chapter 10 of the “Guideline for the Certification of Wind Turbines” issued by Germanischer Xxxxx. Some of the relevant paragraphs are listed below. The most current revision of the guideline and its regulations shall be considered at any time and additional requirements by the Certification Institute must be followed.
General
All measurements shall be carried out and documented by a test institute accredited for these measurements. Alternatively, the test of the turbine behaviour and the load measurements can be carried out by the manufacturer after prior consultation with GL Wind, and then checked and witnessed by a test institute accredited for these measurements. In all cases, the accredited institute shall be responsible for compliance with the fundamental standards and with the requirements of this Guideline. The influence of a turbine variant on the measurement result shall be assessed by the accredited institute which performed the measurements on the original installation.
The wind turbines at which the measurements are carried out shall conform to the greatest possible extent to the design on which the Design Assessment is based. Compliance shall be confirmed in a declaration by the manufacturer. Any deviations shall be reported to GL Wind. If the compliance is adequate for the corresponding test purpose, the measurement can be used for the certification.
The test institute performing the measurements shall record the designations and data on the rating plates of the surveyed plant and on the rating plates of the primary components (at least the rotor blades, gearbox, generator and tower) and shall include them in the measurement report.
Power Curve
Measurement of the power performance of the wind turbine shall be carried out in accordance with IEC 61400-12 “Wind turbine generator systems - Part 12: Wind turbine power performance testing” or DIN EN 61400-12, in each case as the latest version.
Deviations from this standard shall be justified and defined in consultation with GL Wind.
On completion of the measurements, the measured power curve shall be compared by the test institute or by the wind turbine manufacturer with the power curve assumed in the design documentation. Here special attention shall be paid to sufficient correspondence with the assumed values for rated wind speed and rated power.
Annex 8 License Agreement for SCD (2008-07-28)
Page 1 of 3
It shall be observed that a renewed measurement of the power performance is always necessary if the rotor blade type or the rotor diameter is changed. In the case of deviation from the rated rotational speed of the rotor, renewed measurement shall as a rule also be carried out.
The report of the accredited test institute and the comparison shall be submitted to GL Wind for assessment.
Noise Emission
Measurement of the noise emissions of the wind turbine shall be carried out in accordance with 1EC 61400-11 “Wind turbine generator systems—Part 11: Acoustic noise measurement techniques” or DIN EN 61400-11, in each case as the latest version.
Deviations from this standard shall be justified and defined in consultation with GL Wind. It shall be taken into account that especially the rotor blade type, the tower height and the tower type, as well as the type of gearbox in the drive train of the wind turbine, may have an influence on the noise emissions.
The report of the accredited test institute shall be submitted to GL Wind for evaluation.
Electrical Characteristics
Measurement of the electrical characteristics of the wind turbine shall be carried out in accordance with IEC 61400-21 “Wind turbine generator systems Part 21: Measurement and assessment of power quality characteristics of grid connected wind turbines” or DIN EN 61400-21, in each case as the latest version.
Deviations from this standard shall be justified and defined in consultation with GL Wind. It shall be observed that a renewed measurement of the electrical characteristics is necessary as a rule whenever the generator type and the inverter type are changed.
Test of Turbine Behaviour
The test of turbine behaviour is intended to verify the parameters and characteristics used as the basis for the design of the wind turbine. The test of turbine behaviour comprises the following individual tests:
| • | test of the safety system |
| • | test of the braking systems |
| • | test of automatic operation |
| • | test of the switching operations |
| • | measurement of the natural frequencies |
Annex 8 License Agreement for SCD (2008-07-28)
Page 2 of 3
The tests shall preferably be carried out at the wind turbine fitted with instrumentation for load measurements. The requirements of IEC TS 61 400 - 13 “Wind turbine generator systems - Part 13: Measurement of mechanical loads” shall be applied with the necessary changes to the areas of
| • | calibration |
| • | requirements for the measurement parameters and the measurement system |
| • | reporting |
The test of turbine behaviour shall be carried out by a test institute accredited for load measurements at wind turbines, or shall be verified and witnessed by such an institute. On completion of the measurements, the activities shall be performed by the test institute or by the wind turbine manufacturer and the documents specified there shall be presented to GL Wind.
Load Measurements
Load measurements shall be carried out in accordance with lEC TS 61 400 - 13 “Wind turbine generator systems - Part 13: Measurement of mechanical loads”, as the latest version.
Deviations from this Technical Specification shall be defined in consultation with GL Wind. Before the measurements are conducted, the measurement parameter plan and the extent of the measurements shall be agreed with GL Wind as far as possible.
After completion of the measurements, the, activities shall be performed by the test institute or by the wind turbine manufacturer and the documents specified there shall be presented to GL Wind.

Annex 12:
Guidelines of Germanischer Xxxxx on Quality
Management
The requirements for manufacturing are set forth in Chapter 3 of some of “Guideline for the Certification of Wind Turbines” issued by Germanischer Xxxxx. Some of the paragraphs relevant for the production of WECs are listed below. The most current revision of the guideline and its regulations shall be considered at any time and additional requirements by the Certification Institute must be followed.
Requirements for Manufacturers
Manufacturers shall be suitable for the work to be carried out as regards their workshop facilities, manufacturing processes as well as training and capabilities of the personnel. Proof of this may be provided by means of a documented and certified quality management system. If required, GL Wind will issue a shop approval on request of a manufacturer, provided the approval conditions are fulfilled.
It is the responsibility of the manufacturer to observe and conform to this Guideline, the pertinent laws and ordinances technical regulations, standards and data sheets, such as those from the chemicals industry etc. Insofar as the requirements for the manufacturers set out below (especially as regards quality control) are not further defined, these shall be defined in accordance with the quality management requirements. Details shall be agreed with GL Wind for each individual case.
Works equipment
The manufacturers shall have at their disposal suitable facilities and equipment for faultless execution of the work. External facilities may be included for consideration only if these meet the prerequisites for competent execution and are available without restriction. Equipment and facilities include, on the scale necessary for the manufacture in question, for instance the following:
| • | workshops, roofed-over working areas as required, equipment for assembly sites |
| • | store-rooms for materials |
| • | drying facilities- lifting gear for assembly and transport |
| • | processing machinery and tools |
| • | tools and equipment for welding and cutting |
| • | appliances for joining-up, and for welding, laminating, bonding and gluing |
| • | air-condition monitoring instruments |
| • | facilities for preheating and heat treatment |
| • | test equipment and materials plus means for their calibration |
Annex 12 License Agreement for SCD (2008-07-28)
Page 1 of 4
Personnel
The personnel employed by the company shall be such as to ensure that the components can be competently prepared, manufactured and tested to the extent necessary. GL Wind may require proof of the technical qualifications of the staff. The respective areas of responsibility shall be laid down and arrangements made for deputies for those responsible.
Shop approval
Shop approval is required for welding, laminating and bonding. Shop approvals by other organizations can be recognized after consultation with GL Wind. GL Wind reserves the right to demand approval for other manufacturing methods or working techniques.
Quality Management
Provided the manufacturer operates and applies a quality management (QM) system in accordance with a recognized standard, arid, this has been evaluated by GL Wind, a portion of the proofs required in this Guideline may be provided within the context of the QM system. A certification of the QM system by an accredited certification body is recognized through the assessment by GL Wind.
Recognition of the QM system obliges the manufacturer to observe the requirements laid down in this Guideline. The obligation for proof of this rests on the company. GL Wind verifies the effectiveness of the system and the work-specific requirements on the basis, of the documentation submitted by the company, e.g. within the context of shop approval, and checks it, at its discretion, by random inspections or by witnessing tests within the QM system.
The manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that all tests and inspections laid down in accordance with this Guideline, as well as with any standards, specifications and other regulations that are also applicable, are carried out.
GL Wind shall be notified without request prior to the introduction of any alterations to the QM system or to production processes which can be expected to have a significant effect on product quality. GL Wind reserves the right to check these issues (extraordinary inspection) and to review the approval of the QM system.
Insofar as the certification of the QM system of a certification body was recognized by GL Wind, the manufacturer is under an obligation to inform GL Wind without delay about the loss of the certificate’s validity.
Materials
Only suitable materials with guaranteed properties (e.g. strength, toughness - at low temperatures if appropriate, cold deformability, suitability for welding, resistance to rot etc.) may be used for the force- and moment-transmitting components of a wind turbine.
Annex 12 License Agreement for SCD (2008-07-28)
Page 2 of 4
Materials chosen shall be matched to the demands to be made on the component, particularly the type of load (shock load, oscillating load) as well as the external conditions and to the design. The materials chosen shall be named clearly and comprehensively in the documents (drawings, parts lists) to be submitted for approval.
All materials not listed shall be treated in accordance with the relevant standards as regards quality requirements and test conditions. The special environmental and operational conditions of the wind turbine shall be taken into account.
The temperature range for the materials to be used is laid down in the Guideline. The use of materials outside this temperature range necessitates special consultation with GL Wind.
For components which are mounted on or installed in wind turbines, only materials approved by GL may be used in the case of wind turbines for which an application for project certification has been submitted.
For the components listed below, such as
| • | rotor blades |
| • | blade bearings |
| • | rotor hub |
| • | main bearing |
| • | brake |
| • | generator |
| • | main frame |
| • | blade-pitch, rotor and yaw locks |
| • | yaw bearing |
| • | tower and (optionally) foundation |
that are important for the integrity of the wind turbine and also present a high danger potential for human health and life, an implementation of the design requirements in production and erection is required.
Production and Testing
The manufacturers shall ensure that only recognized and approved production processes are used and that the conditions defined as a basis for the recognition and approval are observed.
Laminating fibre-reinforced plastics
All workshops, store-rooms and their operational equipment shall meet the requirements of the relevant safety authorities and employers’ liability insurance associations. The responsibility for compliance with these requirements is solely the company’s.
Annex 12 License Agreement for SCD (2008-07-28)
Page 3 of 4
The danger of contamination of materials for laminating shall as a rule be kept to a minimum by rigorous separation of production areas and other workshops as well as store-rooms. Only the quantity of materials required for production within the next two days shall be stored in the laminating workshops.
Whilst laminating and gluing is progressing, dust-generating machinery may be operated in the laminating workshop only to a limited extent and only if fitted with a dust collection unit. Painting or spraying work is only permissible within the laminating workshop if the company can ensure that such activities will not affect the laminating quality.
Store-rooms
Laminating resin compounds and adhesives shall be stored according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The temperature in the store-rooms shall be recorded continuously.
