-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ad-hoc disclosure pursuant to section 15 of the WpHG transmitted by euro adhoc with the aim of a Europe-wide distribution. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 06.06.2012 The Regional Court of Freiburg (1st instance) has handed down judgment in a legal dispute between Solar-Fabrik AG (ISIN: DE0006614712) and a former member of its executive board (Vorstand), awarding an amount of approximately EUR 1.6 million in damages to Solar-Fabrik AG. These damages were incurred by Solar- Fabrik AG consequent to the culpable breach of a duty by the former executive board member. The duty consisted in the timely forwarding of certain important information by the former executive board member to the remaining members of the executive board of Solar-Fabrik AG, which he failed to do. Solar-Fabrik AG consequently suffered damages, when it granted a loan to a subsidiary in 2008, which it would not have granted, had the said information been available to it at the time. The loan had to be written off by Solar-Fabrik AG pursuant to the ensuing insolvency of the subsidiary. The total amount that had to be written off with regard to accounts receivables of Solar-Fabrik AG in relation to its said subsidiary equated to approximately EUR 6.7 million. This was reported by way of an ad-hoc news on 12 March 2009. To the extent that, and as soon as the judgment of the Regional Court of Freiburg becomes final and binding, the damages awarded will be entered into the books of account of Solar-Fabrik AG as a profit.
