Transaction generates net proceeds to Mainstream of approximately USD 90 million, subject to certain closing adjustments Lekela is the African continent's largest pure-play renewable energy Independent Power Producer (`IPP') with over 1 GW of fully operational wind assets The planned exit reflects the successful culmination of Mainstream and Actis' partnership strategy for Lekela FORNEBU, Norway, March 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement by Aker Horizons ASA dated 18 July 2022 regarding Mainstream Renewable Power ("Mainstream"), the global wind and solar company majority-owned by Aker Horizons, and Actis', a leading global investor in sustainable infrastructure, agreement to sell the Lekela Power platform. Mainstream and Actis today announced the completion of the sale of 100 percent of the Lekela platform to Infinity Power, a joint venture between Egypt's Infinity and UAE's Masdar. The transaction generates net proceeds to Mainstream of approximately USD 90 million, subject to certain closing adjustments, with the transaction valued at an enterprise value of approximately USD 1.5 billion. Lekela was established in 2015 in a joint venture between Actis (60 percent), and a Mainstream-led consortium called Mainstream Renewable Power Africa Holdings ('MRPAH') (40 percent), to deliver clean, reliable energy across Africa. Lekela has since become Africa's largest pure-play renewable energy IPP, with over 1 GW of fully-operational wind assets, including five operational wind farms in South Africa (624 MW), one operational wind farm in Egypt (252 MW), one operational wind farm in Senegal (159 MW) as well as development opportunities in Ghana, Senegal and Egypt. The exit reflects the successful culmination of Actis and Mainstream's partnership strategy for Lekela, following a comprehensive value creation approach. With the support of Actis and Mainstream's dedicated sustainability professionals, Lekela has implemented the highest international standards in health, safety and environmental protection. Lekela has also developed a deep commitment to local development and continues to operate a community investment programme that finances entrepreneurship, educational and environmental protection initiatives. Throughout the development, construction and operations journey, Actis and Mainstream have delivered on their robust sustainable development standards, guided by close engagement with local communities. "We are immensely proud of the role we have played in building and nurturing what is today Africa's largest pure-play renewable energy IPP and I am confident that Lekela will continue to make a major contribution to a just, and therefore sustainable, energy transition. Mainstream is deeply committed to our mission of leading the global transition to renewable energy and our 150-strong proudly South African team is focused on bringing our 11.5 GW pipeline of wind and solar projects in South Africa to fruition this decade and beyond," said Mary Quaney, Group Chief Executive of Mainstream Renewable Power.

CHENGDU, China, March 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Senmiao Technology Limited ("Senmiao" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: AIHS), a financing and servicing company focused on the online ride-hailing industry in China as well as an operator of its own online ride-hailing platform, today announced the operating metrics for its proprietary online ride-hailing platform for the month of February 2023. In February 2023, Senmiao and its affiliates recorded over 0.7 million total completed orders, a 28.3% increase from approximately 0.6 million total orders completed in January 2023, as a result of ride-hailing activity returning to pre-holiday levels following the Lunar New Year in late January. Numbers reported since August 2021 include the number of completed orders from Meituan's ride-hailing platform ("the Meituan platform") utilizing Senmiao's network of cars and drivers for a set monthly fee. Numbers reported since April 2022 include the number of completed orders from several other ride-hailing platforms in Chengdu (Xiehua, Anma and other platforms), under the same cooperation model as Meituan. Since the launch of Senmiao's online ride-hailing platform in October 2020, over 21.6 million rides have been completed using its own platform. Approximately 5.4 million rides have been completed on the Meituan platform under Senmiao's partnership with Meituan since August 2021. Over 1.7 million rides have been completed on Xiehua, Anma and other platforms since April 2022. The number of drivers completing rides via all the platforms (known as Active Drivers) in February 2023 was 5,973, up approximately 23.7% from 4,830 in January 2023. The table below presents approximate unaudited operating metrics of Senmiao and its affiliates' online ride-hailing platform since the launch in October 2020.

A rider can search for taxi/ride-hailing services on Senmiao's partner platforms, which then provide the rider with options for online ride-sharing service providers, including Senmiao. If the rider selects Senmiao, the order will then be distributed to registered drivers on Senmiao's own platform for viewing and acceptance and then completed by Active Drivers. Senmiao earns commissions for each completed order based on a certain percentage of the value of the order. [2] Under the new model, orders go through partner platforms but do not utilize Senmiao's own platform. Online ride-hailing requests and orders will be completed on the partner platforms utilizing Senmiao and its affiliates' network of cars and drivers for a set monthly fee. Starting from April 2022, the number includes orders completed on the Xiehua, Anma and other platforms, in addition to those completed on the Meituan platform since August 2021.
