Located in the Yanjiao Economic & Technology Development Zone in Langfang City, Hebei Province, Solar Silicon Valley operates a wafer production facility with an annual production capacity of 485MW.

Also, Solar Silicon Valley produces quartz crucibles, a key consumable material used in the solar manufacturing industry.

Silver Age Holdings Limited is 70% owned by Jinglong Group, a company controlled by JA Solar's Chairman, Mr. Baofang Jin, and 30% owned by an independent third party shareholder.

JA Solar will issue 30.901 million ordinary shares as consideration at a price of US$5.825 per share, representing the 45-day volume-weighted average price of JA Solar's ADSs trading on the NASDAQ Global Market and approximately a 5% premium to the last closing price of the ADSs prior to this announcement. Each ADS of JA Solar represents one ordinary share.

The consideration for the acquisition represents approximately 2.6 times the audited net income of Solar Silicon Valley for 2010.

Upon completion of the transaction, JA Solar's internal wafer capacity will be increased to approximately 785MW, ensuring a stable supply of low-cost wafers. As wafer costs constitute a significant part of JA Solar's total cost of manufacturing solar cells, enhanced internal wafer capacity will allow JA Solar to improve gross margins and benefit from vertical integration.

JASO and Solar Silicon Valley are also expected to benefit from synergies arising from economies of scale, raw material sourcing efficiencies as well as operational optimization.

JA Solar Holdings Co., Ltd. is a leading manufacturer of high-performance solar power products. The company sells its products to solar manufacturers worldwide, who assemble and integrate solar cells into modules and systems that convert sunlight into electricity for residential, commercial, and utility-scale power generation.
