   Topower International Limited, a British Virgin Islands company, is the record owner of 324,800,000 ordinary shares of Trina Solar Limited. Mr. Jifan Gao is the sole shareholder of Topower International Limited.

   Perseverance International Investment Limited, a British Virgin Islands company, is the record owner of 106,400,000 ordinary shares of Trina Solar Limited. Ms. Chunyan Wu is the holder of approximately 64% of the shares of Perseverance International Investment Limited.
