Re: China Wind Systems, Inc. Board of Directors

Dear Ms. Penick:

China Wind Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is pleased to advise you that you have been elected as a director of China Wind Systems, Inc., subject to your acceptance and agreement to serve as a member of our Board of Directors (the “Board”).  Directors are elected for a period of one year and until their successors are elected and qualified.  At each annual meeting of stockholders, we elect directors to serve for the following year.  The Board is responsible for managing our business and affairs.

This Agreement shall set forth the terms of your service as a director, keeping in mind that, as a director of a Delaware corporation, you have the responsibilities of a director under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

1.           Acceptance; Board and Committee Service.  You hereby accept your election as a director of the Company.  You agree to serve on the audit and compensation committees, and, if the Company designates a nominating committee, you agree, if you are appointed, to serve on that committee.  You confirm to us that you are an independent director as defined in the Nasdaq rules and regulations.

2.           Services.

(a)           The Board will have four regular meetings each year, one of which may be held in the People’s Republic of China.  Special meetings may be called from time to time to the extent that they are deemed necessary.  In addition, we expect that the independent directors will have separate meetings, which may be held on the same day as a board meeting.

(b)           The audit committee will have four regular meetings, one to review the financial statements for each of the first three fiscal quarters and a fourth to review the audited financial statements for the fiscal year.  At these meetings, the audit committee will meet with representatives of our independent registered accounting firm (the “auditors”) and, if the audit committee deems necessary or desirable, the chief financial officer, to review the financial statements together with any questions raised by the auditors’ review of our disclosure and internal controls.  The audit committee will also work with the auditors in connection with the implementation of internal controls.  Additional meetings of the audit committee may be held.

(c)           The compensation committee is responsible for administering any stock option or other equity-based incentive plans and for determining the compensation of the chief executive officer and other executive officers.  We expect that the compensation committee will meet twice a year.

(d)           A copy of the charters for the audit and compensation committee and our code of ethics have previously been provided to you.

3.           Attendance.  Meetings for each year shall be scheduled at the beginning of the year and shall be reasonably acceptable to all directors.  If you are unable to attend a meeting in person, you may participate by conference call.  In addition, you shall be available to consult with the other members of the Board as necessary via telephone, electronic mail or other forms of correspondence.   In addition, you will review our financial statements and annual and quarterly reports prior to the audit committee meetings.  We anticipate that your participation by means other than personal attendance, including review of our financial statements and annual and quarterly reports, as described herein shall be, on the average during the year, not more than ten hours per month.

4.           Services for Others.  While we recognize that you may serve as a director of other companies, you understand and agree that you are and will be subject to our policy that restricts you from using or disclosing any material non-public information concerning our company or from using or disclosing any of our trade secrets or other proprietary information.  Similarly, you agree that you will not use or disclose, in the performance of your duties as a director, any trade secrets or proprietary information of any other company.  You agree to execute our standard non-disclosure agreement.

5.           Blackout Period.   You understand that we have a policy pursuant to which no officer, director or key executive may engage in transactions in our stock during the period commencing two weeks prior to the end of a fiscal quarter and ending the day after the financial information for the quarter or year has been publicly released.  As a member of the audit committee, if you have information concerning our financial results at any time, you may not engage in transactions in our securities until the information is publicly disclosed.

6.           Compensation.  As an independent director and member of the audit, compensation and, if appointed, nominating, committees, you will receive the following compensation:

(a)           An annual fee of $8,000, payable quarterly.

(b)           Such number of shares of common stock as has a value on the date of your acceptance, of $30,000, based on the closing price of the stock on such date.  You shall have piggyback registration rights with respect to such shares; provided, that such right will be subordinate to the rights of any investors in any past or present private placement of securities and such right may not be exercised if the total number of shares issued to you pursuant to this Agreement is more than 1% of our outstanding common stock or if you may sell all of your shares pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933.

7.           Compensation for Subsequent Years.  Your compensation for subsequent years shall be determined by the Board or the compensation committee, provided that the compensation for any year shall not be less than the compensation for the immediately prior year.

8.           Reimbursement of Expenses.  You will be reimbursed for all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the performance of your services as a director and committee member and/or chairman, including your travel, lodging and related expenses.  If the Board or any committee has more than one meeting in China, you may attend that meeting by conference call unless you are otherwise in China.

9.           Officers’ and Directors’ Liability Insurance.  We presently have officers’ and directors’ liability insurance in the amount of $3 million, and we will maintain such insurance in not less than that amount.

10.           Certain Representations.

(a)           You represent and agree that you are accepting the shares of common stock being issued to you pursuant to this Agreement for your own account and not with a view to or for sale of distribution thereof.  You understand that the securities are restricted securities and you understand the meaning of the term “restricted securities.”  You further represent that you were not solicited by publication of any advertisement in connection with the receipt of the Shares and that you have consulted tax counsel as needed regarding the Shares.
