"The proceeds of our equity financing will be used primarily to fuel the U.S. expansion of our newly acquired subsidiary RCI Solar," said Syd Harland, CEO of Global Earth Energy, Inc. "As Western Canada's rapidly growing solar energy company, RCI Solar has the potential to scale up its distribution capacity and increase its market share in both in Canada and the U.S. Given President Obama's recovery act funding and extension of the solar energy tax credit, photo voltaics are experiencing a surge in demand. RCI Solar is poised to capitalize on this favorable regulatory environment that is ushering in the adoption of cleaner and sustainable solar energy systems."
Mr. Harland continued, "This financing structure has a proven track record and we are excited to be working with Dutchess Opportunity Fund. We look forward to building a long term relationship with their experienced and well-established team."
