SHANGHAI, Jan. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China Energy
Recovery Inc. (CGYV.PK) ("CER"), an international leader in the
design, fabrication and installation of waste heat recovery
systems, today announced it has entered into two loan agreements
and the share repurchase program.
On December 29, 2011, CER Energy
Recovery (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
("CER Shanghai"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CER, borrowed
$1,057,682 (RMB 6,680,000) from Industrial and Commercial
Bank of China Limited, Zhangjiang Branch. The loan carries an
annual interest rate of 6.405%. The term of the loan is six months
commencing from December 29, 2011 to
June 28, 2012. The loan is secured by
a pledge of several bank acceptance notes owned by CER Shanghai in
the amount of $1,176,433 (RMB 7,430,000).
Also in December, 2011, CER Shanghai agreed to borrow
$789,639 (RMB
5,000,000) from Shanghai Pudong Zhanjiang Micro-credit
Co., Ltd. The loan is secured by a mortgage of a building in
Shanghai, which is held by Jiangsu
SOPO (Group) Company Limited and guaranteed by Mr. Qinghuan Wu, the
Chairman and Chief Executive Office of CER. The loan carries an
annual interest rate of 12% and the due date of the loan is
June 9, 2012.
The loan was drawn down in two installments, with $315,353 (RMB
2,000,000) and $474,286
(RMB 3,000,000) being drawn down on
December 15, 2011 and December 22, 2011, respectively.
On December 22, 2011, CER
announced that the Board of Directors has authorized a share
repurchase program of up to $500,000.
The funding for the repurchases will be from cash on hand.
The Board of Directors considered a number of options for the
use of the current cash available to CER and the anticipated cash
flow and various capital needs over the near term, and believed
that initiation of a share repurchase program at this time provides
flexibility to enhance shareholder value relative to the current
stock price
The manner, price, number and timing of the share repurchases
will be subject to a variety of conditions, including market
conditions and applicable U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
rules and regulations. CER expects that the shares will be
purchased from time to time, through privately negotiated
transactions or open market transactions, or otherwise. The share
repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at
any time, at the full discretion of CER, without prior notice. CER
may determine not to use the full amount of funds available or may
determine to increase the funds available for the repurchase
program
What is Waste Heat Energy Recovery?
Industrial facilities release significant amounts of excess heat
into the atmosphere in the form of hot exhaust gases or
high-pressure steam. Energy recovery is the process of recovering
as much as two-thirds of that wasted energy and converting it into
usable heat energy or electricity, dramatically lowering energy
costs. Energy recovery systems are also capable of lowering heat
pollution and capturing harmful pollutants that would otherwise be
released into the environment. It is estimated that if energy
currently wasted by all the U.S. industrial facilities could be
recovered, it could produce power equivalent to 20% of U.S.
electricity generation capacity without burning any additional
fossil fuel, and could help many industries to meet stringent
environmental regulations.

refining into low-cost electrical power, which enables industrial
manufacturers to reduce their energy costs, shrink their emissions
footprint and generate salable emissions credits. The
company's primary focus is the Chinese market; however, CER's
systems are operating in heavy industrial plants located in
Egypt, Korea, Vietnam and Malaysia. CER is building one of China's largest state-of-the-art, energy
recovery system research and fabrication facility, which will allow
