Canadian Solar intends to deploy the term loan to support the development of international solar project pipeline and for general corporate purposes.</p>
<p>The U.S. dollar-denominated term loan is expected to mature in April 2021. Credit Suisse further provided Canadian Solar with a cross-currency interest rate swap to hedge its cross-currency interest rate liabilities relating to the term loan.</p>
<p>Dr. Shawn Qu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Canadian Solar, commented, &#8220;We are pleased with this strong demonstration of capital support from Credit Suisse. This term loan provides us with the financial flexibility to invest in growth and further improve our cost of capital.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;We are thrilled to partner with Goldman Sachs on the sale of the Mustang solar project, and this transaction again demonstrates Canadian Solar&#8217;s ability to attract top tier investors,&#8221; said Dr. Qu.</p>
