Blaubeuren, March 26, 2014 - With Supervisory Board approval, the
Management Board of centrotherm photovoltaics AG (ISIN:
DE000A1TNMM9/DE000A1TNMN7) has today passed a resolution to seek a switch
of the stock market segment of centrotherm photovoltaics AG from the
General Standard of the Regulated Market to the Entry Standard of the Open
Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
This switch of stock market segment is intended to reduce the financial and
organizational expense entailed in the shares' listing on the Regulated
Market. The quality Entry Standard segment will continue to provide
shareholders with a high degree of transparency in the future.

In the Entry Standard, the tradability of the centrotherm photovoltaics AG
share on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange will be fully retained in its scope
to date.
Inclusion in the Entry Standard segment of the Open Market is to occur when
the revocation of the listing on the Regulated Market becomes effective.
This revocation will become effective six months after it is published by
the management of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. Until this date,
prospectively by September 2014, the shares of centrotherm photovoltaics AG
will continue to be listed in the General Standard of the Regulated Market
of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
