GRAPEVINE, Texas, Oct 28, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- GRH | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- GreenHunter Energy, Inc. (NYSE Amex: GRH), announced today the execution and closing of a Share Purchase Agreement for the sale of GreenHunter's equity ownership interest in Guangdong MingYang Wind Power Technology Co., Ltd. ("MingYang"), a manufacturer of industrial scale wind turbines located in the People's Republic of China. GreenHunter acquired a minority equity ownership interest in MingYang in late 2007.

Pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, GreenHunter Energy, Inc. has transferred 100% of its ownership interest in Guangdong MingYang Wind Power Technology Co., Ltd. to DT Capital China Growth Fund L.P. for a cash payment of $9,110,000.

Commenting on the sale of the Company's equity interest in Guangdong MingYang Wind Power Technology Co., Ltd., Mr. Gary C. Evans, Chairman and CEO of GreenHunter Energy, Inc., stated, "When we originally made this investment in late 2007, the primary purpose was to form a strategic alliance with a Chinese wind turbine manufacturer that would deliver new turbines to us for use at our Company owned projects. We had previously negotiated favorable terms on deliverability timelines and purchase price. The wind turbine industry here in the U.S. has substantially changed since that time with ample supply of product and substantially improved delivery schedules available today. Therefore, this strategic investment no longer made sense to our company and the cash received certainly improves our working capital position. GreenHunter Energy will report a capital gain on its investment in MingYang during the fourth quarter of this year."
