STRASSEN, Luxembourg, June 24, 2010 - On 10 June 2010, Enovos Luxembourg S.A. signed the acquisition
of a 100% stake in the wind farm "La Benate" near Saintes (Charente-Maritime
region, France).

The 6 wind turbine generators (WTG) are of the type Enercon
E82 with a nominal power output of 2 MW each and a hub height of 79 m. The
wind farm has already been partially feeding into the public grid since May
this year; final commissioning of all 6 WTGs will take place in June.

100% of the generated power will be fed into the public grid,
corresponding to the annual consumption of around 8,000 households.

"By investing in this wind farm, which generates around 32 GWh
of green electricty each year, Enovos Luxembourg S.A. contributes to further
extend it's share of power generation from renewable energy sources.
Furthermore around 13,000 t of CO2 emissions will be saved each year,"
emphasises Daniel Christnach, Head of Renewable Energies at Enovos
Luxembourg. "The lack of roughness in the terrain, combined with a high
annual number of wind hours, makes this location extremely attractive."

Last week, Enovos Luxembourg also decided to participate in the offshore
wind farm "Bard 1." Jean Lucius, CEO of Enovos Luxembourg, underlines that
"the purchase of 'La Benate' is further significant proof of the commitment
of Enovos in the field of renewable energies. This highly profitable project
represents our first investment in renewable energies in France - additional
projects, in France and other countries, will follow."

Enovos Luxembourg was supported in the transaction by goetzpartners.
