QSC reorganises management and appoints cloud experts Udo Faulhaber and
Felix Höger to Management Board

Cologne, 30 March 2015. QSC AG will be reorganising and extending its
Management Board team in line with its strategy of becoming the leading
cloud service provider to medium-sized enterprises in Germany. The
Supervisory Board of QSC AG has decided to appoint Udo Faulhaber and Felix
Höger to the Management Board.

Udo Faulhaber, currently responsible for sales and marketing on the
Management Board of Pironet NDH AG, will become Chief Sales Officer at QSC
AG from 1 August 2015. In this role, he will focus the Company's sales and
marketing in particular on addressing medium-sized enterprises and actively
press ahead with marketing new multi-cloud services. Multi-cloud services
enable companies to use both traditional IT applications and new public and
private cloud services on a joint platform. They are therefore particularly
in demand from medium-sized enterprises in Germany.

Udo Faulhaber has excellent skills in managing sales organisations in a
cloud computing context. A graduate in engineering, Faulhaber gained
extensive experience in leading positions at Nixdorf, Bayer and Postbank,
and above all as a successful entrepreneur and manager at NCC GmbH (later
arxes AG). Faulhaber joined Pironet NDH as a managing director in 2008, was
appointed to the Management Board in 2012 and worked together with CEO
Felix Höger to turn the company into one of Germany's leading cloud service
providers.

As Chief Sales Officer of QSC AG, Udo Faulhaber will succeed Henning
Reinecke, who will retain responsibility for this area until 30 April 2015.
"Henning Reinecke has played a decisive role in helping shape QSC's
successful transformation from a TC provider into a one-stop ICT provider.
Particular achievements are his establishment of sustainable and successful
sector sales operations, and the strong, trusting relationships he forged
with our customers, technology and sales partners and our employees. For
this, I would like to offer him my sincere thanks", commented Dr. Bernd
Schlobohm, Chairman of QSC AG's Supervisory Board.

Felix Höger, CEO at the publicly listed company Pironet NDH AG until 31
December 2014, will join the Management Board of QSC AG with responsibility
for technology and operations from 1 January 2016. Höger already founded
the service provider NDH during his training in 1995. In 2000, he merged
this company with the software manufacturer Pironet to form today's Pironet
NDH AG. A well-known player in the sector and a pioneer and trailblazer for
cloud computing among German SMEs, he has turned Pironet NDH from a network
service and outsourcing provider into a successful and profitable cloud
service provider.

One key factor in this success was the SME-focused development of an
innovative, comprehensive cloud service portfolio enjoying high market
acceptance and offering value chain depth. Furthermore, the services
provided are also characterised by great benefits of scale and the highest
possible efficiency. Precisely these areas will also form the key focus of
his future responsibilities on the Management Board at QSC AG.

Until Felix Höger joins the company, Udo Faulhaber will also be responsible
for his areas of activity on the Management Board.

"With Felix Höger and Udo Faulhaber, we will be supplementing our
Management Board with two proven industry experts and entrepreneurs who
have shown how cloud services can be successfully developed and marketed
for German SMEs. This expertise is enormously valuable to QSC", commented
Jürgen Hermann, CEO of QSC AG, when welcoming the Supervisory Board's
decision.
