EGM:

The BoD calls a further EGM to take place on July 3rd, 2013. The agenda
consists of:
1) Resolution on another capital increase,

2) increase of the authorized capital and

3) to adapt the description of the purpose of the company in the by-laws.

The purpose of the company should reflect the company's activities and
intentions. Therefore the BoD proposes the following wording: 'The purpose
of the Company is the development, management and financing of primarily
sustainable projects, especially in the areas of energy and the
environment, locally and abroad, as well as the provision of administration
and consulting services for and related to similar projects and products of
all kinds.'

invitation will also be published shortly in the Swiss Official Gazette of
Commerce and the German Bundesanzeiger.

Strong project pipeline:

MetaEnergia - World Markets and Meta.Lux SA entered into preliminary
negotiation to create a Joint Venture in Switzerland, focused on the
European energy sector. Meta.Lux SA is the parent company of MetaEnergia
Group, a fast growing power and gas provider in Italy. The purpose of the
Joint Venture is to
- expand MetaEnergia's operations in the European market,

- invest in the development of high efficiency power plants with low
environmental impact,

- invest in direct gas imports and in related trading activities,

- develop energy efficiency projects in compliance with the EU
regulations, and

- consolidate and increase MetaEnergia's presence in the Italian market.

IPP Renewable Energy - Cambodia - Following the announcement on November
6th, 2012, World Markets and Simplon Services GmbH have entered into final
negotiations to develop and manage power plants running on biomass in
Cambodia. Five projects, totaling 24MW of installed capacity, shall be
submitted to final due diligence in the near future. All projects are
eligible for carbon credits.

REDD+ project - Cambodia - Presented on November 6th, 2012 as a 'Project
under initial evaluation', a forest protection and restoration project in
Cambodia's Cardamom Mountains area is also in final negotiations with
Simplon Services GmbH. The project aims at protecting 988,000 hectares of
forest, with the support of leading non-profit environmental organizations
and several Cambodian Government Ministries.

REDD+ project - Myanmar - World Markets and Simplon Services GmbH have also
entered into negotiations to develop a forest conservation and restoration
project in Myanmar, covering 180,000 hectares of prime forest. This area is
home to 5 elephant families that are in great danger as the surrounding
forest is being logged.

The REDD+ projects in Cambodia and Myanmar are a great chance to save major
rainforest areas. At the same time the projects will allow the issue of
carbon credits for the benefit of the company and the local people.
