15 Natural Resources Syndication/Co-Financing in 2010 The Natural Resources Team is working on several large projects, which are at early stage, but may come to market in second half of 2010.

16 Financing Requirements in the Power and Natural Resources Both sectors are very active in CIS/CEE, and there is a strong need for further capital expenditures: Power and Energy: strong focus on renewables investments and rehabilitation/replacement of obsolete assets Natural Resources: massive capital expenditures are needed in upstream, midstream and downstream in short to medium term. Cash strapped governments and sector companies are unable to meet these needs with own resources, so continued flow of external financing is essential.
