Welcome to CEIs 2012 annual report. We thank you for taking the time to get to know our organization, and
hope you find the information, ideas and philosophy set forth here as exciting as we do.
In our 35th year of operation and with 11 offices statewide, CEI ranks among the nations leading rural
community development corporations (CDCs) and community development financial institutions (CDFIs).
Its New Markets Tax Credit program, managed by CEI Capital Management LLC, is the largest issuer of tax credits
for private investment in rural America, and now has projects in 26 states.
With roots in the civil rights movement and Equal Opportunity Act of the 60s, CEI is part of a larger collaboration
to bring value, financial support and self-sufficiency to people and places outside of the economic mainstream. CEI
works in partnership with groups and organizations throughout the country that embrace social and environmental
justice for all people leading the way on the Triple Bottom Line of return on investment economy, equity,
environment.
We owe our success today to our customers, to the 40 board and advisory board members of CEI and its subsidiar-
ies, and to the 88 employees dedicated to our mission. Without their energy, drive and entrepreneurial spirit,
none of the work in which we are engaged would be as effective and impactful. We are indebted to their service
and their loyalty.
Please join us on our journey to make a difference in creating opportunities and spreading prosperity through
mission-focused finance, development and policy.

In October, 2012, the CEI Board approved the Platform for Sustainable Lending and Investing: 2013-2017 (the Platform),
a $128 million initiative to finance over 700 enterprises, create 6,500 livable-wage jobs, and provide access to services in health
and affordable housing for thousands of individuals and families. When combined with the added capacity of CEIs Venture
Capital and New Markets Tax Credit subsidiaries, were poised for even greater mission impact.
The Platform consists of a continuum of financing products from $1 million, all of which come together to create
jobs among small, medium and micro businesses and the value-added natural resource ventures of farms, fish and forests. These,
plus the availability of affordable housing and robust community facilities, provide the working landscapes so important to
rural economies.
In this journey, we aim especially to further engage impact investors in our work, and believe we have an inviting set of prod-
ucts and options to offer. The term impact investor refers to publicly-motivated and socially-conscious individuals and institu-
tional investors who seek to do good while making a financial return. In a world increasingly challenged with access to the basic
necessities for a hopeful life, there is more demand than ever for the altruistic vision of impact investors blended with philan-
thropy, patient capital and government resources and CEI-type organizations to help realize that vision.
If we help our customers attain their success goals, well be fulfilling our own mission and creating ways for impact investors to
achieve the social value they seek with the resources they have. We welcome the participation of private and public entities and
resources to help us meet the goals of this important initiative.

Sea to Table was established in 2001 by the Dimin Family to provide a connection between sustainably managed fisheries and the restaurant industry. By working directly with the fishermen, they are able to connect the fisherman producer with the end user, ensuring that restaurant seafood is fresh, unique, cost neutral and harvested in a sustainable manner. Removing the middleman not only creates a positive partnership with fishing communities, but provides greater profitability for all involved.
The capital recently invested by Partners for the Common Good and CEI allowed Sea to Table to expand their operations to offer frozen salmon in addition to fresh seafood. These resources will enable the company to continue to purchase, process and distribute 60,000 lbs. of Sockeye salmon from Bristol Bay, Alaska.
Returning value to the fishing communities has always been a priority for Sean Dimin. The Kitchen Community from Colorado is a model for all of us to follow. They purchased Maine pollock and made a deal directly with the help of Sea to Table. We helped them to negotiate with the ships captain to purchase, process, portion and truck the wild sustainable fish from the Gulf of Maine to restau-rants in Colorado. To date, we have returned $3.6 million in purchased fish, labor and supplies directly back to fishing communities.

Burgess BioPower Plant in rural Berlin, N.H. is a prime example of next generation forestry management. Developed by Cate Street Capital, Inc., the goal of the plant is to bring jobs and economic development to an area that has been negatively impacted with the closure of surrounding pulp and paper mills. The plant, being constructed on the site of a defunct paper mill, will convert some 750 thousand tons of biomass, a by-product of sustainable wood harvesting, to 75 megawatts of power. The project is on track to sustain 40 direct jobs in management and plant operations, plus several hundred jobs related to the harvest-ing and transportation of biomass.
CEI Capital Management allocated $20.7 million in New Mar-kets Tax Credits for the plant, an important incentive to attract-
