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

On March 31, 2015, partial repayments will be effected to the SolarWorld
notes. The nominal amount of each note will be reduced by the amount of the
respective partial repayment. In coordination with the involved
institutions, the stock trading of both bonds, SolarWorld FRN IS. 2014/2019
Series 1116 (ISIN DE000A1YDDX6) and SolarWorld FRN IS. 2014/2019 Series
1017 (ISIN DE000A1YCN14), will presumably be temporarily suspended to
enable the technical implementation of the partial repayments. Last trading
day will presumably be Wednesday, March 25, 2015. Trading is expected to
recommence on Wednesday, April 1, 2015.

Notes of SolarWorld FRN IS. 2014/2019 Series 1116 (ISIN DE000A1YDDX6)
Nominal amount per note: EUR 371.08 
Partial repayment per note: EUR 4.27
Nominal amount per note after partial repayment: EUR 366.81 
Payment date: March 31, 2015

Notes of SolarWorld FRN IS. 2014/2019 Series 1017 (ISIN DE000A1YCN14)
Nominal amount per note: EUR 381.50 
Partial repayment per note: EUR 4.39
Nominal amount per note after partial repayment: EUR 377.11 
Payment date: March 31, 2015

The unscheduled partial repayments are made due to the sale of a piece of
vacant land at SolarWorld's site in Hillsboro, Oregon. Overall, the
repayments amount to EUR 4.6 million and will be paid equally to holders of
senior notes and to noteholders of SolarWorld's two bonds.
