CATCH THE WIND SIGNS SALES AGREEMENT WITH BORALEX FOR 6 VINDICATOR® LWS UNITS

MANASSAS, VA, June 6, 2011 /CNW/ -- 
- Grows international base of users and broadens integration with more
 turbine makes - 


MANASSAS, VA, June 6, 2011 /CNW/ - Catch the Wind, Ltd. (TSX-V: CTW)
 announced today that it has sold six Vindicator(®) laser wind sensor (LWS) units to Boralex (TSX: BLX), a power producer
 with an installed capacity of 700 MW in Canada, the Northeastern United
 States and France. The sales agreement includes an option to purchase
 hundreds of additional units over a set period.


"Our sales agreement with Boralex is significant on a number of levels,"
 said Phil Rogers, President and CEO of Catch the Wind, Inc.  "Not only
 does it provide the potential for a significant number of follow-on
 orders, it also expands our installed base around the world through an
 expected installation into France for the first time. Equally
 important, it allows us to broaden the number of turbine makes and
 models into which the Vindicator has been integrated given Boralex's
 use of Enercon turbines."


The installation of the Vindicator(®) laser wind sensor units will initially take place on six Boralex wind
 turbines located on different sites in North America and Europe.  
 Installation is expected to begin in the third quarter of the current
 calendar year.  Boralex's primary use of the Vindicator® LWS is
 intended for increased energy output.


Financial terms of the sales agreement were not disclosed.


The Vindicator® LWS is a "next generation" wind sensor for utility-scale
 wind turbines. From its position on top of the nacelle, the Vindicator®
 LWS determines wind speed and direction up to 300 meters in front of
 the turbine. As a result, the Vindicator® LWS provides a
 three-dimensional view of actual wind conditions enabling the
 optimization of a wind turbine's performance for the purposes of
 increasing energy output and reducing damaging stress loads.
