    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    - Adjusted for one-off items, EBITDA of Colexon rose by 79% to EUR 3.7mio
    - Astenhof relocation, merger transaction and restructuring expenses
    distort H1 figures
    - Cost initiatives under new Management at full speed
    - Record numbers for 7C Solarparken NV, which also expanded its PV Estate
    portfolio

    Hamburg, August, 26 2014 - COLEXON Energy AG (WKN: A11QW6, ISIN:
    DE000A11QW6; Stock Exchange: General Standard in Frankfurt/Main) achieved
    an increase in revenues by 13% to EUR 6.2mio in H1'14. Production rose by
    16% thanks to much sunnier weather than last year, but overall there has
    been 10% less capacity in operation given the dismantlement of the old
    Astenhof installation. Reported EBITDA dropped from EUR 2.7mio in H1'13 to
    EUR 2.1mio in H1'14 because of three exceptional cost items: i) EUR 0.3mio
    merger transaction costs, ii) EUR 1.25mio non-activated expenses related to
    the relocation and iii) restructuring fees of EUR 0.4mio related to the
    leave of Mr. Hars and 6 other employees. Mainly due to cash-outs for the
    Astenhof relocation, the free liquidity dropped from EUR 5.3mio at year-end
    2013 to EUR 2.5mio at the end of June '14.

    Management prepares new Strategic plan - cost initiatives at full speed
    As will be detailed in the Strategic Plan, cost rationalization and a
    fitter structure have been immediate action points implemented by the new
    management. Number of employees has been reduced from 21 in 2013 to 17 at
    the end of June, but they include 6 employees that have already been
    dismissed in H1'14 and another 3 that are leaving in Q3'14. As a result,
    only 8 employees including the two-persons board of directors will remain
    in the company.

    7C Solarparken NV with record figures during H1'14 - expansion of its PV
    Estate portfolio
    The growth path of 7C Solarparken NV has brought its fruits as EBITDA rose
    to EUR 5.7mio. Adjusted for merger/ transaction costs, EBITDA would even
    have been EUR 5.9mio. These numbers do not include any revaluation effects
    of parks. Cash on balance sheet amounted to EUR 9.5mio of which EUR 3.9mio
    is free liquidity. During the first half, 7C Solarparken NV significantly
    expanded its PV Estate portfolio through acquiring the land on a 7MWp park
    in Zerre and through purchasing an office building in Bayreuth including
    the ownership of different related PV installations (carport, rooftop and
    tracker) and a battery for self-consumption. Aside from lucrative deals in
    PV Estate, the company will shortly close the negotiations of wider
    expansion of its IPP portfolio.
