Scatec Solar ASA - Update on the Initial Public

Offering - Revised indicative price range and

extension of bookbuilding and application period

Oslo, 29 September 2014 - Scatec Solar ASA ("Scatec

Solar" or the "Company") hereby announces the

extension of the bookbuilding and application period

for the Company's initial public offering on the Oslo

Stock Exchange (the "Offering"). The bookbuilding

period for the institutional offering will now end on

Tuesday 30 September at 16:30 CET, while the

application period for the retail offering and the

employee offering will end on Tuesday 30 September at

12:00 CET. All other dates, as further described in

the prospectus dated 12 September 2014, will be

changed accordingly.

Furthermore, the board of directors of the Company,

after consultation with the Joint Bookrunners and the

Selling Shareholders, has set a new and revised

indicative price range for the Offering ranging from

NOK 19 to NOK 21 per Offer Share, which implies a pre-

money equity value of Scatec Solar of between NOK

1,283 million and NOK 1,418 million (USD 199 and USD

220 million).

The Company will still raise gross proceeds of NOK

500 million by issuing new shares in the Offering to

execute on the communicated strategy while, as a

result of the lowered indicative price range, the

Selling Shareholders intend to sell no more than 10

million existing shares in the Company. In addition,

pursuant to an over-allotment facility, the Joint

Bookrunners may elect to over-allot a number of

additional existing shares equalling up to 15 % of

the number of Offer Shares.

The Company has been informed that the Joint

Bookrunners in the Offering have secured orders at

the revised terms such that the Offering is

oversubscribed within the new indicative price range

by domestic and international institutional investors.

The scale back in the number of existing shares to be

sold is expected to be approximately pro rata between

the selling shareholders with the exception of the

members of the Company's management team which will

not sell any shares in the Offering (save for a

reduction in the ownership in the Company resulting

from the indirect ownership in the Company through

Scatec Invest AS and Scatec Solar Ansatte AS, as

further described in the prospectus dated 12

September 2014).

Completion of the Offering is conditional upon (i)

the satisfaction of the conditions for admission to

listing set by the Oslo Stock Exchange, and (ii) the

board of directors of the Company, in consultation

with the Joint Bookrunners, following the

bookbuilding process having approved the offer price

and the allocation of the Offer Shares and resolved

to issue the New Shares and complete the Offering.

Subject to the successful completion of the offering,

the first day of listing on the Oslo Stock Exchange

is expected to be on or about Thursday 2 October 2014.

On 28 September 2014, the Financial Supervisory

Authority of Norway approved a supplemental

prospectus reflecting the revised indicative price

range. The supplemental prospectus and the prospectus

will, subject to regulatory restrictions in

certain jurisdictions, be available at www.abgsc.com,

www.carnegie.no and www.scatecsolar.com (through a

link to the website of the managers). Hard copies of

the supplemental prospectus and the prospectus may

also be obtained free of charge by contacting the

Company or one of the managers.

ABG Sundal Collier Norge ASA and Carnegie AS are

acting as Joint Lead Managers and Joint Bookrunners

in the Offering. Advokatfirmaet Selmer DA is legal

advisor to the Company.
