China Sunergy: Closing of Offerings of Convertible Senior Notes

The notes were offered to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The notes are convertible into American Depositary Shares (''ADSs'') of China Sunergy.

China Sunergy loaned the ADSs to an affiliate of the initial purchaser of the notes, the ADS borrower, which in turn sold the borrowed ADSs in the offering. The ADS borrower is using the short position resulting from its sale of the borrowed ADSs to facilitate the establishment of hedge positions by investors in the notes offering.
