NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     1.     Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Evergreen Solar, Inc. (“Evergreen Solar” or the “Company”) are unaudited and have been prepared on a basis substantially consistent with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Consequently, these statements do not include all disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002, which are contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2003. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at June 30, 2003, the results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, and the cash flows for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. The balance sheet at December 31, 2002 has been derived from audited financial statements as of that date. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2003.

The Company has historically financed operations and met capital expenditures requirements primarily through sales of capital stock and, to a lesser extent, research and product revenues. The first of the Marlboro facility’s two manufacturing lines became operational in 2001. As more fully described in Note 8 “Stockholders Equity,” on May 15, 2003, the Company consummated the private placement transaction contemplated by the purchase agreement entered into on March 21, 2003 with certain investors to raise $29,475,000 through the issuance of 26,227,668 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock and the sale of a warrant to purchase 2,400,000 shares of common stock. The proceeds to the Company, net of financing expenses of approximately $849,000, were approximately $28.6 million. The Company expects to use the net proceeds from this transaction to fund the construction of the second manufacturing line and other operations of the Company. The Company expects portions of the second manufacturing line to become operational in late 2003 and that it will be completed in 2004. As of June 30, 2003, our outstanding commitments for capital expenditures were approximately $4.5 million. Nearly all of our commitments for capital expenditures are associated with infrastructure improvements and equipment purchases for our manufacturing facility. In addition to the current capital commitments, substantial further capital expenditures will be required over the next twelve to eighteen months to increase the capacity at our manufacturing facility to our target level of 10 to 14 megawatts for both lines.

The Company may need additional financing to execute its business plan if the Company needs to respond to business contingencies such as the need to enhance its operating infrastructure, respond to competitive pressures and acquire complementary businesses or necessary technologies. The Company does not know whether it will be able to raise additional financing on favorable financing terms. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company’s ability to fund its operations, develop and expand its manufacturing operations and distribution network, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited.

2. Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

The Company computes net loss per common share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” (“SFAS 128”), and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). Under the provisions of SFAS 128 and SAB 98, basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per common share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2003 does not include 1,549,589 and 30,520,239 potential shares of common stock equivalents outstanding at June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively, as their inclusion would be antidilutive.

4. Guarantor Arrangements

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”) “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34.” FIN 45 requires that a guarantor recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken by issuing the guarantee. The accounting requirements for the initial recognition of guarantees are applicable on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements are effective for all guarantees outstanding, regardless of when they were issued or modified, during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The following is a summary of the Company’s agreements that we have determined are within the scope of FIN 45.

Product warranty

The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. Given the Company’s limited operating history, the Company uses historical industry solar panel failure rates as the basis for the accrued warranty costs during the period. While the Company engages in product quality programs and processes, including monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates and material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. If the Company’s actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from these estimates, accrued warranty costs would be adjusted in the period that such events or costs become known. Since the Company has a limited operating history and its manufacturing process differs from industry standards, their experience may be different from the industry data used as a basis for its estimate. While the Company’s methodology takes into account these uncertainties, adjustments in future periods may be required as its products mature. The following table summarizes the activity regarding the Company’s warranty accrual during the first half of 2003:

Indemnification agreements

The Company enters into standard indemnification agreements in its ordinary course of business. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company indemnifies, holds harmless, and agrees to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, generally our business partners, directors and officers. The term of these indemnification agreements is generally perpetual any time after execution of the agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements under certain circumstances may be unlimited. However, the Company has never incurred costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. Furthermore, the Company has a Director and Officer insurance policy pursuant to which the Company may recover all or a portion of amounts it pays to directors and officers under their indemnification agreements. As a result of the Company’s insurance policy coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. The Company believes the estimated fair value of agreements with parties other than its directors and officers is minimal as well.

The Company agreed to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the purchasers participating in the Company’s Series A private placement financing transaction, their affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners, members and controlling persons to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all losses, claims or written threats thereof, damages, expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) resulting from or arising out of the Company’s breach of any representation or warranty, covenant or agreement in the purchase agreement. The Company believes the estimated fair value of this indemnification agreement is minimal.

5. Deferred Compensation and Equity Related Charges

Prior to December 31, 2000, the Company recorded total cumulative deferred compensation of approximately $1.3 million representing the difference between the fair market value of the Company’s common stock and the exercise price on the option grant date. These amounts were presented as a reduction of stockholders’ equity and are being amortized ratably over the vesting period of the options, which is generally four years. The amortization resulted in charges to operations of $143,000 and $138,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

6. Stock Based Compensation

The Company applies the accounting provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 25 and related interpretations and has elected the disclosure-only alternative permitted under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“SFAS”) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” The Company has disclosed herein pro forma net income (loss) in the footnotes using the fair value based method. All stock-based awards to non-employees are accounted for at their fair market value, as calculated using the Black-Scholes model in accordance with SFAS No. 123.

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plan. Had compensation expense for the employee stock option plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for options granted under the plan consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, net loss would have been as follows (in thousands, except per share data):
