Suntrek Industries, Inc.

Executive Summary

Since 1991, Suntrek has been providing clean solar energy options to customers located on the west coast. With over 20,000 satisfied customers and annual revenues approaching $10 million per year, the company is prepared to embark on an aggressive growth push to become a national leader in the industry. Recently, the company has added key management and infrastructure to support the plan to double revenues over the next year on the way to attaining $200 million in sales in 2013.

The company was founded in 1991 by Roy Heine, CEO and Chairman. He invented a patented system for heating swimming pools using the power of the sun and quickly developed a reputation for product and service excellence. Suntrek is a relationship company that prides itself on delivering superior customer service and a sterling reputation in the industry. The main driver of business growth has been strategic alliances with industry leaders and word of mouth referrals from enthusiastic customers.

Suntrek differs from its competitors in several key areas. Most solar companies today are strictly focused on photovoltaic (PV) applications only, while Suntrek promotes the concept of The Power of Three - PV, solar water heating, and solar pool heating. Second, the company has grown organically and profitably as opposed to many competitors that operate at a loss. Third, the company enjoys and promotes strong relationships with community leaders, government offices, and building and management associations.

Suntrek customers vary from commercial, government, and industrial customers to residential and multi-family units.

Some marquee customers include the Long Beach Airport, the Blue Heron New American Home, NAF El Centro, Lamar Signs, Best Western, and the City of Sierra Madre.

Multi-Family Hot Water Project

President Barack Obama has pledged to support alternative energy and plans to spend as much as $150 billion over the next decade on solar, wind, and other clean energy projects. Recent federal legislation extending tax incentives to 30% with no cap over the next 8 years is a big boost to the industry. Many states, including California, have incentives in place to lower the cost of solar to utility customers. New financing programs are emerging that can also reduce up-front costs.

As can be seen in the chart at right, PV and solar hot water are growing at increasing rates. Solar pool heating has fallen off recently because of the real estate downturn and is expected to recover as that industry returns to normal.

Suntrek is currently developing plans to utilize new compounds being developed to enable the pool heating systems to heat water. It is also working on a unique PV/Pool hybrid model, and is researching the utilization of the pool heating model to industrial boiler pre-heating applications.

Companies and government offices are responding to the media opportunities to “green” themselves and fed-eral and state incentives, creating a large opportunity for Suntrek.

Subject: PRELIMINARY Proposal for Domestic Hot Water

RE: George Kokalis

951 Copeland Creek Drive Rohnert Park, CA 94928 Dear George:

This is a preliminary proposal based on a site visit that took place on December 21st 2010. The purpose of this visit was to determine the financial and environmental benefits of incorporating a solar domestic hot water system. The property consists of two 12 unit buildings each served by a 100 gallon hot water heater. Each building is made up of twelve two bedroom units for a total of 24 bedrooms. There is a third structure that houses the manager’s residence plus a laundry facility. The property is broken into three major systems defined by the buildings they serve. Each building will be supported by its own solar collector array and storage tank(s) as well as all supporting equipment. For the purpose of this proposal, we have broken the project up into three parts.

Building “A “ runs parallel to the walk path, has an existing water heater capable of 83,000 BTU per hour and a recovery rate of 80 gallons an hour with storage of 100 gallons with a roof tilt of approximately 15 degrees and an Array Azimuth of 180 degrees.

Building B has an existing water heater capable of 88,000 BTU per hour and a recovery rate of 80 gallons an hour with 100 gallons of storage with an Array Tilt of 15 degrees and an Array Azimuth of 200 degrees.

Lastly, Building C has an existing hot water heater capable of 40,000 BTU per hour with 40 gallons of storage and a recovery rate of 40 gallons with an Array Tilt of 15 degrees and an Array Azimuth of 232 degrees.

We propose the installation of 240 gallons of storage on each building with six EP 32 collectors on both Building A and B. Because Building C is technically residential housing, but has a laundry facility attached, it doesn’t fit neatly within the California Solar Initiatives Criteria (CSI), so for the purposes of this proposal we have used multifamily usage criteria. In order to qualify for additional funding through the CSI, it may require the installation of a flow meter to confirm actual usage.

Building A

Upfront Cost: $24,600 Federal Tax Credit: $7,380

State Rebate: $5,602 (estimated CSI Rebate)

Net Cost: $11,618.00

Building B

Upfront Cost: $24,600 Federal Tax Credit: $7,380

State Rebate: $5,731(estimated CSI Rebate)

Net Cost: $11,489.00

Building C

Upfront Cost: $12,300 Federal Tax Credit: $3,690

State Rebate: $2,692 (estimated CSI Rebate)

Net Cost: $5918.00

Total Gross Cost $61,500.00

Estimated Net Cost $29,154.00

This proposal is based on the roof being prepared with composition roofing as discussed at the job walk. The locations of the panels and square footage required to be determined at pre-site once letter of intent is signed and final engineering has been completed. This is an estimated cost of installation of material and labor and excludes costs associated with permitting and engineering that may be required by the permitting authority. These costs are generally not known and are billed as a pass-through cost without additional markup.

We look forward to taking the next steps. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any further questions.

Sincerely,

Steve Reese
