2 GBT - part of Econcern’s Wind Holding BV - works closely with Darwind BV and Steelworks BV. GBT forms an essential part of the value chain that will provide Econcern with the capacity to roll out its offshore projects. GBT will focus on primary sourcing of multi-MW blades to both offshore and onshore WTG producers. We will: –offer tailored solutions including blade design, development and production –leverage innovations in blade technology to deliver the best blades at competitive prices GBT aims to source 100% of Darwind’s blades and acquire a 10% market share in the remaining market for outsourced multi-MW blades in Europe –GBTs overall share in the market of outsourced multi-MW blades will be 30% by 2015 –Total blade production will build up to 2,400 blades by 2020 GBT represents an attractive business opportunity »Total financing required: € 43 million »NPV: € 652 million (@ 11% discount rate in real terms) »IRR: 48% General Blade Technology

3 The prime role of GBT: to secure the supply of high-quality 5 MW blades to Darwind: –Darwind aims to become a major player in the offshore wind turbine market in Europe by offering a high performance and low maintenance 5 MW wind turbine based on the direct drive principle in combination with a permanent magnet generator –Darwind will enter the market by 2011 and aims to deliver 500 WTGs by 2016, therefore requiring 1,500 blades by that year. New companies entering the market with similar needs: –Once GBT has demonstrated its capabilities by supplying Darwind, it will start offering similar services to other WTG producers. GBT will focus on primary sourcing of multi-MW blades to offshore AND onshore WTG producers. We will : –offer tailored solutions including blade design, development and production –leverage ongoing innovations in blade technology to deliver the best blades at competitive prices GBT will address other market segments to leverage capacity: –Provide secondary sourcing to WTG producers with in-house blade production –Supply 2.5 MW blades as fall-back if the market for large blades falls below plan GBT aims to supply 100% of Darwind’s blades and acquire a 10% market share in the remaining (non-Darwind) market of outsourced multi-MW blades: –Total blade production is expected to build up to 2,400 blades by 2020.
