VALERE POWER AND CHINA WUHAN PUTIAN GROUP FORM STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP
China Expansion Extends Valere’s Global Footprint

Richardson, TX—Oct. 4, 2005— Valere Power today announced a strategic partnership with China Wuhan Putian Group Corp., a leading supplier of DC power systems to all of China’s major telecom operators.

The partnership allows Wuhan Putian to integrate Valere’s state-of-the-art rectifiers into its next-generation power systems for Chinese service providers. System development began earlier this year and was completed in August. Putian has obtained comprehensive qualifications and certifications for the system, which is currently available. Beginning in early 2006, all Wuhan Putian systems will exclusively feature Valere Power rectifiers.

A signing ceremony was held in Wuhan, China, on Sept. 26, attended by Andy Marsh, president and CEO of Valere Power, Yang Aimin, president and CEO of Wuhan Putian Group Corp., and other senior executives of the companies, along with city officials of Wuhan city and the Wuhan economic development zone.

“ After meeting and evaluating a number of potential companies, we believe that, with Valere’s leading rectifier technology, its development, support and manufacturing infrastructure in China, and its local sales and marketing support organization, the partnership between Putian and Valere will quickly allow Putian to further extend our competitive advantages in the China DC power market to further grow our revenue and market share,” said Aimin. “It will also present Wuhan Putian some unique opportunities of entering other markets.”

" Putian’s long history and relationships with all Chinese service providers, its extensive sales and marketing coverage and its local support experience and expertise allow Valere Power to better leverage our leading technology and obtain immediate and full market access to China Telecom service provider DC system markets,” said Marsh.
