Phoenix AZ (SPX) Apr 12, 2012

Solar panels are very efficient in generating a clean and renewable source of electricity. Solar panels gather the sun's energy and directly convert it into electricity during daylight hours and are quite reliable for periods up to twenty five years requiring minimal ongoing maintenance.

William Tien, President of Zentric is pleased to announce Zentric has entered into an agreement to purchase Innovative Solar I, LLC and Innovative Solar II, LLC, each the owner/developer of separate 800KW solar power plants in Leicester, North Carolina valued at $4 million each to build.

The purchase of each LLC includes associated land lease, purchase power agreement, engineering performed to date, and interconnection agreement, which are in the name of Innovative Solar I, LLC and Innovative Solar II, LLC, respectively. In addition, the Vendor will serve as EPC Contractor and be responsible for erecting and building to completion each project.

Each 800KW solar farm will be situated on 5 acres of leased land and will contain approximately 3,500 solar photovoltaic panels. The use of solar panels or photovoltaic ("PV") cells is the most common way to generate renewable solar energy.

Solar panels are very efficient in generating a clean and renewable source of electricity. Solar panels gather the sun's energy and directly convert it into electricity during daylight hours and are quite reliable for periods up to twenty five years requiring minimal ongoing maintenance.

Mr. Tien remarked, "Zentric is very excited to acquire these two projects that will be 100% owned by Zentric and have already been awarded a Power Purchase Agreement or PPA. The PPA is a long term guaranteed contract with the local Power Authority to purchase all of the power we can generate at a pre-determined price. A PPA guarantees a steady stream of payments and in this case for a minimum of 15 years."

Mr. Jeff Mak, CEO of Zentric, Inc., continues, "We are extremely pleased to become an owner/operator of our own solar power facilities that will not only generate a steady revenue stream for many years, but we are also able to take full advantage of the attractive tax credits provided by both federal and state government that will greatly offset the acquisition and development cost of each solar power plant."
