ECP’s investments help stimulate growth, create jobs, increase tax revenues and establish a local investment infrastructure. By financing businesses located in communities historically underserved by outside investment, ECP helps states and the federal government achieve economic development objectives.  That is particularly important now as state budget constraints mean less funding for creating badly needed jobs.

“Small businesses are the lifeblood of the U.S. economy and the key to long-term job creation and economic growth,” said Geoff McKay, a managing director of Vulcan Capital.  “ECP has an exceptional track record of spurring growth of small businesses, and they are uniquely positioned to prudently invest in markets and businesses that are underserved by traditional sources of capital.”

Andrew Paul, Founder and Chairman of ECP’s Board of Directors, said, “We appreciate Vulcan Capital’s confidence in ECP and look forward to their partnership with us.”

Michael Korengold, ECP’s President and CEO added: “Vulcan’s commitment to our SBIC will enable us to diversify our offerings for businesses in underserved communities.  In addition, Vulcan will enable us to expand our investment programs at a time when many capital providers are shutting down or scaling back investments in this important sector.”

ECP manages fourteen public-private investment funds in eight states, as well as a Federal New Market Tax Credit investment program aimed at stimulating investment in low-income communities.  For example, ECP’s New Market program recently provided $9.6 million to the D.C.-based Capital Area Food Bank. The CAFB, the largest nonprofit hunger and nutrition education resource in the Washington Metropolitan Area, is using the funding to build a facility that will allow it to double the amount of food and household necessities it distributes annually.

ECP’s affiliated SBIC offering recently received a “green light letter” from the SBA and is currently raising equity capital.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, December 17, 2010 – Enhanced Community Development, LLC (ECD), a leading New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) community development entity, recently provided $9.6 million of NMTC allocation to a tax credit financing transaction with the Capital Area Food Bank (CAFB), the largest nonprofit hunger and nutrition education resource in the Washington Metropolitan Area. The transaction will allow CAFB to build a new distribution facility that will ultimately enable it to accept, sort and distribute twice as much food and household necessities into the community.
“We are thrilled to participate in a transaction that will allow CAFB to build a new food distribution center, which will better address the challenges of reducing hunger and malnutrition in the Washington Metropolitan Area and help to drastically decrease food waste and inefficient food distribution,” said Richard Montgomery, ECD’s Managing Director. “Additionally, this project will help stimulate the local economy by creating over 150 construction jobs.”
In addition to doubling its capacity over time, the new facility will allow CAFB to greatly expand its meeting, training and administrative spaces in order for staff and CAFB’s 700 partner agencies to better serve the surrounding community. Lynn Brantley, CAFB’s President and CEO, said, “This transaction comes at a critical time for the growth of the food bank. The benefits of the New Markets Tax Credit program provided us with the additional capital that allowed us to expedite the development of our new facility.”
JPMorgan Chase, a leading global financial services company, was the tax credit equity investor in the transaction. “JPMorgan Chase is committed to investing in projects that have a positive and sustainable impact on the communities where we do business,” said En Jung Kim, vice president, Chase Community Development Banking. “This new facility will provide better resources to help the Capital Area Food Bank reduce hunger by feeding more people in the community.”
About Capital Area Food Bank
CAFB is the largest non-profit hunger and nutrition education resource in the Washington Metropolitan area. CAFB currently distributes 27 million pounds of food, including 10.8 million pounds of fresh produce, to more than 478,000 people annually and is committed to uplifting those in need, providing the best services possible, and helping those who are without the means to help themselves. Located in Northeast Washington D.C., CAFB has distributed nearly $600 million of food and other necessities into the community since its founding in 1980.

October 14, 2010 – Energy Source Partners, a Nashville-based renewable energy company, is positioning itself for growth through equity funding from Council & Enhanced Tennessee Fund, a Nashville-based investment partnership focused on building transformational businesses in Tennessee.

“Rising energy costs, along with the recent state and federal government incentives, have greatly accelerated interest in renewable energy solutions to produce clean, abundant, dependable, cost-effective and sustainable source of power that will reduce conventional energy consumption while lowering a customer’s carbon footprint,” said Merville.

Council & Enhanced Tennessee Fund, LLC (“C&E”) is a Nashville-based investment partnership focused on building transformational businesses in Tennessee, including seed and early-stage businesses.

“Energy Source Partners is a great example of an early stage Tennessee-based company poised for growth in an important industry, renewable energy,” said Paul Kasper, Managing Director at C&E.  “We are proud to be a part of ESP’s growth because we believe their highly experienced team will contribute greatly to the local Tennessee economy through its own growth and through its use of local vendors and sales to local Tennessee companies.”

Energy Source Partners provides the design, financing, installation, management and support for all aspects of the solar energy system.  Through ESP’s BrightWay Solar Power Purchase Agreement, customers get a renewable energy solution tailored to provide low-cost electricity with long-term pricing stability, a smaller carbon footprint and a greener public image.  The company’s website is www.energysourcepartners.com.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, November 16, 2009 – The United States Department of the Treasury
announced recently that Enhanced Community Development, LLC has been selected to receive a
$60,000,000 allocation under the New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) Program administered by the
U.S. Department of Treasury’s Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) Fund.

Enhanced Community Development, LLC is a subsidiary of Enhanced Capital Partners, Inc
(“Enhanced Capital”). Enhanced Capital is a participant in the District of Columbia’s Certified
Capital Company (“CAPCO”) program and has been making investments in District-based
companies over the past 5 years. Enhanced Capital will principally use its NMTC allocation to
provide below-market loans and equity investments to businesses, including not-for-profit
organizations, located in low-income communities in the District.

“As a result of our positive experience making investments in small businesses under the
District’s CAPCO program, we specifically designated the District as one of our main investment
areas under the federal New Markets Tax Credit program,” said Michael Korengold, President
and CEO of Enhanced Capital. “Now we have the opportunity to expand our presence in the
District by continuing to invest in businesses in economically challenged communities.”

The NMTC program grants tax credits to the private sector to encourage investment in lowincome
communities throughout the nation. The program is designed to stimulate economic
and community development in underserved areas.

“The New Markets Tax Credit Program is promoting private-sector investment in our nation’s
communities and is helping to stimulate growth, create jobs and bringing new opportunities to
Americans most in need,” said Donna J. Gambrell, Director of Treasury’s CDFI Fund. “This
innovative federal program is helping to finance numerous businesses and real estate projects
across the country—projects that may not have been financed if not for New Markets Tax
Credits.”

About NMTC
To date, over $14 billion of private-sector capital has been invested through the NMTC Program
into urban and rural communities throughout the country. Data reported through 2008 shows
that $12.7 billion dollars of NMTC capital has been invested into approximately 2,000 businesses
and real estate developments. A complete list of the organizations selected and additional

NASHVILLE, Tennessee November 5, 2009 – Tennessee Economic and Community Development
Commissioner Matt Kisber and Revenue Commissioner Reagan Farr announced today that
Council and Enhanced Tennessee Fund, LLC (“C&E”) was selected to receive an allocation of $20
million under the TNInvestco program. C&E is a Nashville-based investment partnership
focused on building seed and early-stage, transformational businesses in Tennessee.

The Tennessee Small Business Investment Company Credit Act, later re-named TNInvestco,
was created by the Tennessee legislature and signed into law by Governor Bredesen in July
2009. The goals of the TNInvestco program are to develop Tennessee’s entrepreneurial
infrastructure, to bring additional capital into the state, to diversify the state’s economy and to
create clusters of business innovation which can result in new companies being created or spun
off and new talent being attracted to Tennessee.

Under the TNInvestco program, businesses are eligible to receive funding from C&E if they can
demonstrate high growth potential, are headquartered in the state, with at least 60% of its
employees located in the state, and employ no more than 100 employees.

“We are excited to begin working with Council Ventures in making investments in Tennessee
small businesses poised for growth,” said Michael Korengold, President and CEO of Enhanced
Capital. “Our experience mentoring entrepreneurs, leading investment rounds and securing
follow-on capital for our portfolio companies puts us in an ideal position to help Tennessee small
businesses grow and expand the state’s tax base by creating jobs.”

“With our partnership with Enhanced, we at Council Ventures felt our firms were from the outset
well aligned with the TNInvestco goal of fostering “transformational companies” that will make a
positive contribution to the success of the TNInvestco program and to Tennessee’s economy,”
said Managing Partner Denny Bottorff of Council Ventures. He added, “while Council and
Enhanced routinely work with companies and partners nationwide, the TNInvestco program will
mean both firms will have greater focus on Tennessee-headquartered companies.”
