The agreement is dependent on the renewal of the
federal investment tax credit extending as far as 2009 and beyond,
while revenues arising from the agreement are not expected until 2009.

David
Rennie, CEO of SunPeak Solar, said, “We are pleased to partner with
EMCORE to ensure the capacity and cost requirements for these projects
as EMCORE is the only vertically integrated CPV product provider and
has the capacity and commitment for such projects.”
