Government of Singapore Investment Corporation Pte Ltd

168 Robinson Road, #37-01 Capital Tower

Singapore 068912

Dear Sirs:

     This letter agreement is to confirm our agreement relating to the purchase by Government of
Singapore Investment Corporation Pte Ltd (the “Investor”), a company incorporated under the laws of
Singapore, of ordinary shares (“Shares”) in Nobao Renewable Energy Holdings Limited, a company
incorporated in the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth herein. The Investor’s purchase of the Shares will be subject to and concurrent with the
Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) of American depositary shares (“ADS”), each
representing such number of Shares as specified in the registration statement on Form F-1,
including the Prospectus (as defined below) (the “Registration Statement”) that the Company has
filed or will file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in
connection with the IPO or any amendments thereto.

     In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1. Purchase. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this letter agreement, at the
Closing (as defined below), the Investor shall purchase from the Company, and the Company shall
issue, sell and deliver to the Investor, a number of Shares (the “Purchased Shares”) equal to US$30
million (the “Total Purchase Price”) divided by the initial public offering price for the Shares
offered by the Company in the form of ADSs in the IPO (the “Price Per Share”), free and clear of
all liens or encumbrances (other than those created by virtue of this letter agreement). The Price
Per Share shall be calculated as the initial public offering price of the ADSs as specified in the
final prospectus filed with the Commission (the “Prospectus”) divided by the number of Shares each
such ADS represents. In consideration for the issuance and sale of the Purchased Shares, against
delivery thereof to the Investor, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this letter
agreement, at the Closing the Investor shall pay or cause to be paid by 5 p.m. (New York time) to
the Company by wire transfer in immediately available funds in United States dollars to an account
designated by the Company an amount equal to the Total Purchase Price. All such sales shall be
made (i) on the same terms as the ADSs being offered in the IPO and (ii) pursuant to and in
reliance upon Regulation S (“Regulation S”) and/or Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Securities Act”).

     2. Closing; Conditions.

     (a) The closing of the sale and purchase of the Purchased Shares (the “Closing”) shall take
place, subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph 2(b) below; concurrently with the
consummation of the IPO and pursuant to the procedures set out in paragraph 1 above, and the
Closing under this Agreement will take place at the offices of

 

 

O’Melveny & Myers LLP, 37th Floor, Plaza 66, 1266 Nanjing Road West, Shanghai, China or at
such other place as the Company and the Investor may mutually agree.

     (b) The Closing shall be conditioned upon (unless this condition is waived by the Investor and
the Company) the purchase of the ADSs by the underwriters for offer to the public in the IPO.

     3. Restrictions on Transfers of Purchased Shares.

     (a) The Investor shall not, without the prior written consent of Citigroup Global Markets
Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman Sachs (Asia) L.L.C., and UBS AG, as representatives

pledge, contract to sell, announce the intention to sell, issue, lend, grant or purchase any
option, right or warrant for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer (each of the
foregoing referred to as a “Disposition”), any of the Purchased Shares (the “Lock-Up Securities”)
during the period specified in clause (b) below (the “Lock-Up Period”); provided however, the
Investor shall be entitled to effect a Disposition to any affiliate of the Investor so long as such
affiliate agrees to be bound to the then remaining term of this Lock-Up Period, whether now owned
or hereafter acquired by the undersigned or with respect to which the undersigned has or hereafter
acquires the power of disposition; or (2) enter into any swap or any other agreement or transaction
that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequences of ownership
of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such swap or transaction described in (1) or (2) above is to
be settled by delivery of the Lock-Up Securities or other securities, in cash or otherwise, during
the Lock-Up Period.

     (b) The initial Lock-Up Period will commence on date of Closing and continue until, and
include, the date that is 180 days after the date of the Prospectus (the “Initial Lock-Up Period”);
provided, however, that if (1) during the last 17 days of the Initial Lock-Up
Period, (A) the Company releases earnings results or (B) material news or a material event relating
to the Company occurs, or (2) prior to the expiration of the Initial Lock-Up Period, the Company
announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period following the last day of
the Initial Lock-Up Period, then in each case the Lock-Up Period will be extended until the
expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the date of the release of the earnings results or the
occurrence of material news or a material event relating to the Company, as the case may be, unless
the Representatives waive, in writing, such extension.

     (c) Any attempt to transfer any Purchased Shares in violation of the terms of this letter
agreement shall be null and void, and neither the Company or any transfer agent shall register upon
its books any transfer of Purchased Shares by the Investor to any Person except a Transfer which is
not in violation of this letter agreement.
