Changes to the Management Board of SOLON SE

Stefan Säuberlich is new CEO; Management Board reduced to four members

Stefan Säuberlich, 46, previously served as CFO for the Wadan Yards in
Wismar and Warnemünde (formerly: AKER MTW Werft GmbH and AKER Warnow
Werft GmbH). Before his time at AKER, Säuberlich was a management
board member responsible for finance, financial controlling, legal
affairs and IT of Scandlines AG in Rostock. Prior to that he was the
head of equity holdings of DB Cargo AG where he participated in
numerous major transactions and mergers.



"I very much look forward to my new responsibilities. SOLON SE is a
young and modern company in an increasingly contested market which is
presently undergoing consolidation. SOLON's strong points are
innovative products, high quality standards and an innovative growth
strategy. The strategic management of the company in a dynamic market
environment is an exciting challenge for me," said Stefan Säuberlich.
A native of Berlin, Säuberlich is married and has three children.

"We are very pleased to have gained Stefan Säuberlich as a top manager
and an experienced restructurer for SOLON. With his skills and
experience, he will lead the company into a successful future in the
global market of renewable energies. SOLON is a company with a strong
and sustainable outlook in the promising market of photovoltaics. The
challenges currently confronting the company result from the general
economic crisis and fundamentally changed market conditions. The
necessary adjustment of the structures is underway and we are
convinced that Mr. Säuberlich as our new CEO will bring this process
to a successful conclusion," commented Dr. Karl Werner, Chairman of
the Supervisory Board of SOLON SE.

The Supervisory Board of SOLON SE has also decided to reduce the size
of the Management Board from five to four members. As a result, Anke
Hunziger, Chief Human Resources Officer, is also leaving the
Management Board.
"On behalf of the entire Supervisory Board of SOLON SE, I want to
express my gratitude to Mr. Krupke and Ms. Hunziger for their
outstanding commitment to the company and their successful work. Under
their leadership, SOLON has developed from being a producer of modules
for Germany alone into a photovoltaic system supplier which is
successfully active in all the world's key photovoltaic markets.
