AURELIUS subsidiary SECOP wins the Innovation Award 2015 - Seite 2

subsidiary SECOP on a course of sustainable growth in the last few years."

Most of SECOP's divisions exhibited a positive performance in the last
fiscal year. The Light Commercial Division generated growth particularly in
Asia and the Middle East. The increasingly widespread conversion to the
environmentally friendly hydrocarbon refrigerant propane (R290) in the
Light Commercial segment offers tremendous future potential. This process
has been utilized in Europe for some time already, but the changed
regulatory requirements in the United States are now incentivizing this
conversion in this huge market. SECOP has formed a sales and logistics team
in the United States to participate in the expected growth of this market.

In the Household segment, SECOP continues to focus on extending its
technology leadership position in the area of variable-speed compressors.
