  3. Section I. The CPE Advantage C O N F I D E N T I A L

  4. The Value Proposition • CPE is a leader in the design, assembly and operation of cost-effective offshore platforms for global applications with over 50 years experience • CPE offers offshore wind farm owners, developers and rate payers a quality product at prices substantially less than its competitors • Cost saving designs that provide high-quality, safe platforms for applicable water, wind and site conditions • Access to advanced, reliable and cost-effective wind turbines manufactured through a joint venture in the U.S. • Manufacturing and shipping within U.S. that is cheaper than from Europe • The partnering mentality – CPE designs a project’s scope with the client including as much as needed to meet the client’s objectives • Assessment and evaluation – economic viability of project • Design and engineering – best solution for fewest dollars • Fabrication, transportation and installation – domestic sourcing further reduces costs • By controlling all aspects within a project’s scope, the company has a higher probability of meeting all deliverables on time/on budget • Result is a cost model that delivers a project at $2.5-3 million/installed MW as compared to the European cost model of $4-5 million/installed MW

  5. The CPE Assurance • CPE’s leading experience and knowledge of offshore platform design, engineering & construction is based upon its know-how and technical expertise developed in the oil & gas industry over the last 50 years • This global experience is enhanced by the evolution of sophisticated structure design and engineering through • Metallurgy and material advancements • Improved techniques for analyzing water characteristics, soil & wind conditions, and weather patterns • Improvements in offshore wind turbine design, efficiency and dependability • These advancements ensure a high-quality, efficient wind project • All project components are subject to strict inspection, verification and certification processes by global leaders in the industry • A leading offshore engineering firm that provides independent evaluation and verification of project planning, design & engineering, component selection, inspection and oversight of fabrication and installation, and metallurgical analysis • A firm specializing in the certification of design to globally recognized API standards and inspects, verifies and certifies that structures are built according to plan (requirements for insurance)

  6. Section II. Management & Credentials C O N F I D E N T I A L

  7. Management Mr. Miller has been involved in various positions in oil and gas exploration, development, production, marketing and transportation for 43 years in most areas of the U.S., as well as in China, the Philippines, Indonesia, Canada, Ukraine, Georgia, Africa, the Caribbean and the North Sea, including involvement in the initial commercial oil discoveries in several of these areas. In competition with most major oil companies, Mr. Miller obtained the first foreign onshore oil exploration agreement from China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) in 1993. In 1994, the initial well drilled under the agreement, directed by Herman Schellstede, resulted in the first foreign commercial onshore oil discovery in China. The technical challenges encountered in this project were more difficult than those to be encountered in the Texas offshore wind energy project. Mr. Miller continues to work with companies in China in the oil business, both within and outside China. Mr. Miller and Mr. Schellstede have worked on projects together for 20 years. Mr. Miller is a graduate of Louisiana State University. Bill Miller Chairman Prior to joining Coastal Point Energy as President, Mr. Hudson and Mr. Miller had worked together for 32 years. Mr. Hudson was the Managing Partner of the Washington, DC office of Brownstein Hyatt and Farber (Denver), which was named in 2006 by Roll Call magazine as one of the fastest growing law firms in DC. Mr. Hudson practiced in the areas of federal and state legislative law, emphasizing energy, environmental, technology, telecommunications and administrative law. Prior to joining the firm, he was the Chief of Staff of US Senator John Breaux for 2 years. Previously, Mr. Hudson was elected to the Louisiana State Senate where he served for 12 years and was elected President Pro Tempore and Chairman of the Commerce Committee. He received his BA and JD degrees from LSU. Thomas H. Hudson President

  8. Management Mr. Schellstede has over 40 years of ocean engineering experience in the offshore oil and gas design, engineering, and construction industry, with a specialized emphasis directed towards solving problems. He has been granted sixty-seven (67) U.S. Patents and ten (10) International Patents. The patents involve machine and drilling equipment, various industrial products and various environmental systems and equipment. During his career, Mr. Schellstede’s has owned and operated two major shipyards, an engineering and development company, and co-founded and operated Wind Energy Systems Technology (“West”) which he formed five years ago. During this time, he managed a workforce of 500 – 750 personnel. His company was responsible for the design and construction of many offshore platforms and drilling rigs. He is a registered Naval Architect and Marine Engineer and President/CEO of WEST. Herman Schellstede Chief Technology Officer (CTO) & V.P. - Project Development Mr. Whitcomb has 20 years of international business development experience with Fortune 500 companies and as an investment banker.
