</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Certain statements in this press release including statements regarding expected future financial
and industry growth are forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ materially. These statements are made under the &#147;Safe
Harbor&#148; provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, you
can identify forward-looking statements by such terms as &#147;believes,&#148; &#147;expects,&#148; &#147;anticipates,&#148;
&#147;intends,&#148; &#147;estimates,&#148; the negative of these terms, or other comparable terminology. Factors that
could cause actual results to differ include general business and economic conditions and the state of the solar industry; governmental support
for the deployment of solar power; future shortage or availability of the supply of high-purity
silicon; demand for end-use products by consumers and inventory levels of such products in the
supply chain; changes in demand from significant customers, including customers of our silicon
materials sales; changes in demand from major markets such as Germany; changes in customer order
patterns; changes in product mix; capacity utilization; level of competition; pricing pressure and
declines in average selling price; delays in new product introduction; continued success in
technological innovations and delivery of products with the features customers demand; shortage in
supply of materials or capacity requirements; availability of financing; exchange rate
fluctuations; litigation and other risks as described in the Company&#146;s SEC filings, including its
annual report on Form 20-F originally filed on May&nbsp;29, 2007. Although the Company believes that the
expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, it cannot guarantee future
results, level of activity, performance, or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on
these forward-looking statements. All information provided in this press release is as of today&#146;s
date, unless otherwise stated, and Canadian Solar undertakes no duty to update such information,
