I. OVERVIEW

The EB-5 is an Employment-Based 5th Preference visa which was created by the Immigration Act of 1990. It provided for 10,000 immigrant visas per year to qualified individuals seeking permanent resident status on the basis of their investment in a new commercial enterprise. Due to disappointing results with this original immigrant investor program, in 1993, Congress enacted the Immigrant Investor Pilot Program, commonly referred to as the “Regional Center Program.” A Regional Center is defined as an economic unit which is involved with the promotion of economic growth, which includes improved regional productivity and job creation.

1

II. IMMIGRANT INVESTOR PROGRAM Under Section 203(b)(5) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), 8 USC §1153(b)(5), 10,000 immigrant visas are available annually to qualified individuals seeking permanent resident status on the basis of their investment in a new commercial enterprise. The Investor's investment in the new commercial enterprise must create at least 10 full time jobs for U.S. Citizens, lawful permanent residents and other immigrants lawfully authorized to be employed in the United States. This new commercial enterprise can be located in a Regional Center. A Regional Center is an entity, organization or agency that has been approved as such by the USCIS. It seeks to promote economic growth and improved regional productivity. The Investor must demonstrate that the qualifying investment is being made within an approved Regional Center. The Investor must also show using accepted econometric models that 10 or more jobs are actually created either directly or indirectly by the new commercial enterprise. Please note that ACFI will ensure that the Investor will meet these conditions. The investment must be $1,000,000 or at least $500,000 where the investment is being made in a “targeted employment area” which is an area that has experienced high unemployment or a rural area as designated by the Office of Management and Budget. Permanent Resident status based upon EB-5 eligibility is available to investors, their spouses and unmarried children under 21 years of age.

III. BENEFITS OF HAVING A GREEN CARD Upon receipt of conditional permanent resident status, the investors and their families are entitled to the same benefits as other lawful permanent residents (LPR). Some of these benefits include:

– Live and work anywhere in the U.S. – Start any business in the U.S. – Travel abroad and return to the U.S. without having to apply for an additional visa – Study in the U.S. at resident cost, and legally work while enrolled as a student – Establish eligibility for becoming a US citizen

V. AMERICA’S CENTER FOR FOREIGN INVESTMENT (ACFI) On June 11, 2007, the Alabama Center for Foreign Investment (ACFI) was approved by United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) as Alabama’s statewide Regional Center. On October 21, 2009, ACFI expanded its geographic region to include the state of Tennessee and portions of the states of Florida, Georgia and Mississippi. Subsequent to this expansion, ACFI was renamed America’s Center for Foreign Investment. As such, ACFI participates in the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Pilot Program, providing foreign nationals the opportunity to become permanent residents of the United States through a qualified investment. To ensure compliance with immigration laws and for the safety of the investor, ACFI carefully identifies, evaluates and selects investment projects which meet the Immigrant Investor requirements as specified by United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). ACFI’s management team has decades of experience in immigration law, finance, economic development and governmental relations. This experience provides investors with quality professional assistance during the entire process. ACFI's premier investment opportunity is with Hybrid Kinetic Motors (HK Motors), an American car company using cutting-edge technology to produce vehicles that are destined to set a new standard in the automobile industry. HK Motors will produce a full line of high quality, affordable hybrid vehicles which are energy efficient and environmentally friendly without sacrificing performance. HK Motors’ management team has a strong background in the automotive industry and a proven track record of developing and manufacturing motor vehicles. On June 1, 2010, United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) approved ACFI’s HK Motors Proposal for the Immigrant Investor EB-5 Program. USCIS has determined that all HK Motors Agreements, Memorandums and its Business Plan are in compliance with established EB-5 eligibility requirements. This approval will facilitate the approval of all I-526 (Immigration Petition by Alien Entrepreneur) petitions submitted by investors in the HK Motors Project A, LP. The investor petitioner will only have to provide biographic information and show the source and path of funds to be invested. Also in June, 2010, an HK Motors investor’s petition was successfully expedited by USCIS – approved only two weeks after expedited processing was requested. This is an unprecedented achievement for an EB-5 Regional Center. Shortly thereafter, HK Motors filed Form D with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, ensuring full project compliance with US securities law. America’s Center for Foreign Investment, LLC (ACFI) is committed to provide quality consulting services to assist individuals in complying with all aspects of the Immigrant Investor Pilot Program, also known as the EB-5 Visa Program. ACFI carefully identifies, evaluates, and selects qualified investment projects for consideration by accredited investors. This selection process may include, but is not limited to, analysis related to financial statements, business plans, pro forma, market analysis, econometric models and project principals. ACFI professionals will assist the investor with this entire process from start to finish ensuring that all aspects of the program will be carried out as smoothly, effectively, and efficiently as possible. ACFI is committed to assist the investor throughout the entire process, by providing personal, professional, and quality service.

Hybrid Kinetic Motors Alabama Project

I. MISSION STATEMENT Hybrid Kinetic Motors (HK Motors) strives to become the world’s leading enterprise for developing, manufacturing and marketing advanced technology vehicles with low emissions and high energy efficiency, while providing customers worldwide with high quality, superior performance vehicles and services. The company offers vehicles which will revolutionize the automotive industry, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, lessen oil dependence, create green jobs, improve state and local economies, and strengthen US competitiveness in green vehicle development, manufacturing, and marketing.

II. PROJECT SUMMARY The world economy is transitioning to a green economy for economic recovery after a severe economic recession and automotive crisis. Two components of the green economy include using alternative energy while improving energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas, especially carbon dioxide (CO2), emissions. Green transportation is one of the leading industries in the green economy because it requires a large investment, creates a large number of jobs, and has a significant impact on the economy, environment, and society. Hybrid Kinetic Motors is at the forefront of the trend and positioned to succeed. Hybrid Kinetic Motors is an American automobile company that designs, manufactures, and markets advanced technology vehicles which are characterized by high fuel efficiency, low emissions, high performance, and great affordability. HK Motors was incorporated in Delaware and is headquartered in Pasadena, California. Hybrid Kinetic Motors Project A, LP is the first project company of Hybrid Kinetic Motors.

HK Motors aims to become the world’s leading manufacturer of clean energy hybrid vehicles. Its ultimate success will reshape the American automotive landscape, help the US regain its leadership role in the global automotive industry and create a very large number of direct, indirect and induced jobs across the country. HK Motors Alabama Operations – The Project A, LP – will be the world’s largest manufacturing complex with annual production capacity of one million green vehicles. Full production capacity will be reached in 2018 after Phase 1 production (300,000 vehicles per year) starts in mid-2013 and Phase 2 (600,000vehicles per year) in late-2016. Through intensive studies of energy resources and distribution, crisis and continuously rising costs, HK Motors believes that in the next several decades, only compressed natural gas (CNG) can replace gasoline as the primary vehicle fuel in large quantity (30~40%) with relatively stable and affordable price (around $1-$2 per gas gallon equivalent). Conveniently, the world’s two largest automotive markets, US and China, also both hold significant proven natural gas reserves. The oil shortage and high oil prices are pushing up the demand for natural gas vehicles (NGVs). It is projected by the International Association of Natural Gas Vehicles (IANGV) that there will be 65 million NGVs in the year 2020, when NGVs will account for 9% of the world vehicle market. Currently, there are approximately 7 million retrofit NGVs in the world, and 130,000 NGVs, primarily buses, in the US. The United States is at the turning point for the rapid growth of NGV market that will provide a lifetime opportunity for HK Motors. By developing unique hybrid vehicles, HK Motors will be at the forefront of this transition.

HK Motors’ unique multi-fuel engine and electric-drive hybrid power train technologies will utilize these natural gas reserves to provide a highly competitive, environmentally friendly alternative to gasoline. Technical simulations indicate that HK Motors’ engines not only easily outperform today’s leading automakers in terms of fuel economy and CO2 emissions but also meet the most stringent international standards, including the 2016 Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFÉ) standards mandated by the US Government (35.5 miles per gallon), the 2012 European Community CO2 emission standards (120 grams per kilometer) and 2015 EPA CO2 regulations (155 g/km). HK Motors’ strategy of adopting a single engine platform combined with several advanced power boosting technologies will allow HK to offer cutting-edge, high-performance engine systems at costs comparable to current gasoline engines of twice the size. This is the key to HK Motors’ overall cost advantage and technical advantages in high fuel economy and low emissions. HK Motors’ primary operations will be based in the state of Alabama, along the Southern Auto Corridor where Mercedes Benz, Honda, Toyota, and Hyundai have operations, and in a state that has a great workforce with strong work ethics and good skills. The targeted production capacity is 1,000,000 vehicles per year, with full product lines of three vehicle groups, including: – Passenger Cars Group: entry-level midsize, full size, luxury cars; – SUV/VAN Group: SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle), CUV (Crossover Utility Vehicle), Van

(mini-van and large vans); – Truck Group: pickup trucks, light-duty trucks. According to the current plan, production will begin in 2013 if all project financing benchmarks are reached. It is expected that full production of one million vehicles will be accomplished by 2018. Once full production is reached, the estimated revenues and profits are $35 billion and $2.8 billion per annum respectively, with an average net profit margin of 8%. HK Motors aims to be the first company in the world completely dedicated to the mass production of multi-fuel (natural gas and gasoline) electric-drive hybrid vehicles. Highlights of Investment Advantages:

• Unique opportunity for immigrant investors to become US permanent residents and invest in America’s future

V. TECHNOLOGIES

Primary Fuel Choice – Natural Gas After extensive research, it has been found that Natural Gas (“NG”) is the best and most available substitute for oil as an alternative energy source to power next-generation vehicles. Natural gas is the world’s second most common and cleanest fossil fuel source. Natural gas is abundant, clean, cheap, and energy-efficient. Worldwide proven natural gas reserves will last 200 years at the current vehicle market growth rate. The US is the world’s second largest NG producer. Proven domestic NG reserves as estimated in 2008 can power US houses and vehicles for 118 years (per American Clean Energy Foundation). A major discovery was made in May 2009 at the Marcellus gas formation in Appalachia, which is situated more than a mile underground and stretches southwest from New York, through Pennsylvania, and into West Virginia. It is estimated that the Marcellus formation, 5,000 square miles in area, may contain up to 1,300 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. This site alone can provide 60 years worth of NG supply for the nation.

The price of natural gas is a fraction of the crude oil price. Crude oil is 6 (when oil price is low) to 25 (when oil price is high) times more expensive than NG (per DOE/EIA Feb. 2009 projections). The chart of fuel price for vehicles shows a much lower and more stable price for natural gas. This is one of the major financial benefits of driving NG vehicles.

Another advantage of using natural gas as an alternative fuel is the life cycle energy efficiency. Natural gas is the only fossil-based fuel that can be directly used to power a vehicle without costly processing as used in gasoline production. The following charts compare the total energy use and efficiency among different fuel and energy sources. Natural gas vehicles (NGV) use the least energy per driving unit of distance and have the highest efficiency among all fuel and energy sources.

Finally, natural gas is one of the cleanest burning alternative fuels and has less carbon than any other fossil fuel, thus producing lower CO2 emissions. Compared to a gasoline engine of the same capacity, a CNG engine can reduce CO2 emissions by 30 ~ 40% , carbon monoxide (CO) by 70-90%, nitrogen oxides (NOx) by 87%, non-methane organic gas (NMOG) by 87%, hydrocarbon by 50%, volatile organic compounds (VOC) by 10%, and emitted particulate matter (PM) by 80%. The HK Motors plan to develop, manufacture and market hybrid vehicles with natural gas as the primary fuel will support energy independence and national security, reduce greenhouse gases and emissions, and improve fuel efficiency. The world NGV market is rapidly developing and has reached a turning point. It is projected by IANGV (International Association of Natural Gas Vehicles) that there will be 65 million NGVs in the year 2020, when NGVs will account for 9% of the world vehicle market. Currently, there are around 7 million retrofit NGVs in the world, and 130,000 NGVs, primarily buses, in the US. By developing unique hybrid vehicles, HK Motors will be at the forefront of this new endeavor to produce clean, efficient, and affordable natural gas vehicles.

Multi-fuel Electric Drive Hybrid Propulsion Technology In HK Motors vehicles, the combustion engine will support multiple fuels, including CNG (Compressed Natural Gas), gasoline, and other hydro-carbon fuels. The primary power will be CNG, which can carry the vehicle for an extended range. Considering the density of CNG stations and charging stations is not as high as that of gasoline stations in the U.S., each vehicle will also be equipped with a 5-gallon reserve gasoline tank which will help drivers find a CNG station after the CNG has been completely consumed. Both fuels will share the same combustion engine.

In addition, each vehicle will be powered with a battery-electric motor. The battery can be recharged via a normal wall outlet. Discounted electric utility rates in the late evening in many locations will provide incentives to car owners to conduct overnight recharging. It will be a win-win situation for car owners, electric utilities companies, and society. With certain configurations, a fully-charged battery alone can achieve a driving range sufficient for the typical daily commuter in North America.

Moreover, the combustion engine will feature many energy-efficient optimization technologies, such as Weight Reduction, Start/Stop-System, Aerodynamic Improvement, and Heat Storage. These advanced technologies, together with alternative fuels, will enable the vehicle to achieve greater energy-efficiency by increasing the thermal utilization rate. Combined with CNG and electric power, the vehicle can reach an impressive fuel economy that is significantly higher than the average fuel economy in today’s market. Moreover, since it uses multiple energy sources - CNG, battery, and gasoline - the vehicle will have a long driving range, approximately 600 miles for a full tank of CNG with a fully charged battery and full tank of gasoline.

HK Motors Advanced Power Train System

High Performance Driving Technology In addition to the high energy efficiency of the vehicles, unlike most original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that focus on downsizing both engine power and vehicle dimensions to improve limited fuel economy, HK Motors’ vehicles maintain ride comfort without downsizing vehicle dimensions, and improve driving performance using a combination of advanced boosting and hybrid technologies to improve power output to 400HP through a specially developed 1.5 liter engine. These boosting technologies include variable compression ratios (VCR), dynamic variable valve timing (DVVT), variable valve lifting (VVL), twin turbo charge (TTC), and spark ignition direct injection (SIDI).

17

Low Emission Technology Another important objective that the company aims to achieve is emission reduction. HK Motors believes that increasingly lower emission standards provide a great opportunity for growth and innovation. The specially developed 1.5 liter CNG engine emits much less CO2 and other pollutants than benchmark gasoline vehicles with the same horsepower. The vehicles will engage battery-electric power at ignition, which can eliminate emissions entirely. In other words, the car will be a ZEV (Zero Emission Vehicle) in electric-driving mode. This will be a significant improvement to emission control, since starting a vehicle disproportionally generates a large amount of CO2. Furthermore, vehicle optimization features, such as Start/Stop System and Reduced Weight, will achieve additional emission reduction. The second-generation full battery-electric cars will be ZEVs (Zero Emission Vehicle), with no emissions from driving. Summary of HK Motors Advanced Technology Vehicles HK Motors advanced technology vehicles are developed by the finest engineering resources in the world. These vehicles satisfy EU and US requirements on safety, emission, fuel economy, and recycling. The characteristics of the vehicles include:

VI. MARKETING STRATEGIES HK Motors will fully utilize its technological strength and product advantages to market advanced technology vehicles by heavily promoting high energy efficiency, low emissions, high performance, ride comfort, affordable prices, and low driving costs. Favorable marketing advantages include: • Advanced technology vehicles with ride comfort, driving excitement and fuel economy, that are

environmentally friendly • Government policies and regulations in HK Motors’ favor • Consumers that are more educated and environment conscious • Economic driving: affordable purchasing after all government rebates and incentives, and superior savings

in driving cost • Most importantly, HK Motors offers free natural gas for 50,000 miles or 4 years, whichever comes first

The Department of Energy projects that oil prices will continue to climb towards $110/barrel or higher in 2015, and $130/barrel or higher in 2030. That correlates to a gasoline price of $3.5-$4.5/gallon, while the CNG price will remain around $1.5-$2/gge (gasoline gallon equivalent). Government incentives, tax credits, and rebates also exist for fuel efficient, low emission vehicles. HK Motors will deploy marketing strategies that focus first on the following primary states:

Sources: EIA; Natural Gas Monthly

• States that are more environment-conscious and have the most incentives and laws, such as California, New York, Texas, and large metropolitan areas.

• States that are major natural gas producers, allowing for NG consumption at a lower cost. Experts now believe that the recently discovered Marcellus formation - situated more than one mile underground and stretching southwest from New York, through Pennsylvania, and into West Virginia - may contain up to 1,300 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. This site alone can provide 60 years worth of NG supply for the nation. This will make the states of Pennsylvania, New York, and West Virginia the nation’s premier natural gas production league.

VIII. SUMMARY HK Motors will become a world leading enterprise in the developing, manufacturing, and marketing of advanced technology vehicles by attracting global talents, adopting world leading technologies, and developing innovative business and sales models.

Currently, car manufacturers are encountering three major challenges. The first challenge is the global recession and automotive industry crisis: as in many other industries, the car industry is in survival mode. The second challenge stems from the rapid rise of oil demands and shrinking supplies. Oil may only last 40-70 years using current auto volume and market growth. In addition, major suppliers of oil are in geopolitically unstable regions, and thus constitute a national security risk. The increase of oil and gasoline prices appears to be permanent and inevitable, and have become an economic growth constraint for all industries. The third challenge comes from increasingly stringent regulations and government mandates for fuel efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions, in response to global warming.

HK Motors’ advanced 3-in-1 hybrid vehicles using three energy sources - natural gas as primary fuel, battery, and gasoline for emergency use - provide an optimum solution to all of these challenges, because natural gas is the world’s second most abundant and cleanest fossil fuel source, and the best replacement for oil. More importantly, proven US natural gas reserves can power our homes and vehicles for more than 160 years. These natural gas-fueled, environmentally friendly green vehicles will meet and exceed all rigid regulations.

HK Motors Alabama Manufacturing Complex will become the world’s largest manufacturing base for advanced technology vehicles with low emissions, high fuel efficiency, high performance and high quality. As the world’s largest automotive production complex, it will create more than 18,000 direct and 157,000 total jobs (direct, indirect and induced). It will annually produce 1,000,000 advanced hybrid propulsion systems and green vehicles, and generate $35 billion in revenue. HK Motors Alabama Project will lead innovation in the automotive industry, create green jobs, stimulate state and local economies, harmonize the environment, and benefit society. This project will inevitably reshape the American automotive landscape, accelerate the green transition and strengthen Alabama’s leadership on the green transportation super-highway.

Appendix II: Frequently Asked Questions

Once the investor’s EB-5 petition is approved, USCIS issues a “conditional green card.” What is a “conditional” green card? A “conditional” green card is valid for two years. A conditional green card holder has the same rights and privileges as a permanent green card holder. Its holder should file a petition to remove conditions three month before the second anniversary of issuance. If the investor successfully removes conditions, a ten-year permanent green card will be issued. What is the difference between “conditional” and permanent green cards? A permanent green card is valid for ten years without conditions. Both cards offer the same rights and privileges. Can my spouse and children also receive "green cards" under the EB5 visa program? Yes. Your spouse and minor children are eligible for the conditional immigrant visa that you applied for when you filed your I-526 petition. If I was denied a US visa, can I still apply for EB-5? Yes, an investor still can apply for an EB-5 immigrant visa, even if he or she has been denied a US visa in another category, unless the reasons for denial are related to immigration fraud or other major problems. It is most important that all criminal, medical, and U.S. immigration history problems be disclosed to ACFI and legal counsel in advance of your petition. Do I have to stay in the US once I receive my green card? According to immigration regulations, the green card holder must create a residence in the US, and spend at least 6 months a year in the US in order to keep permanent resident status. If family, employment, or business issues will not allow you to meet the residence requirement, you can apply for a re-entry permit. Re-entry permits are valid for two years and can be renewed after expiration.
