Mytrah Energy Limited ("Mytrah Energy" or the "Company")

Proposed Business Trust Listing on the Singapore Exchange

Mytrah Energy is pleased to announce that it is evaluating a potential initial public offering and listing ("Proposed Listing") of its wind-power assets as a business trust ("Business Trust") on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited ("SGX-ST").

Mytrah Energy is working with financial, legal and other advisors in evaluating the feasibility, optimal structure and timing for the Proposed Listing.  The Proposed Listing will be subject to, inter alia, regulatory approvals and market conditions.

The Business Trust would acquire assets from Mytrah Energy as part of the Proposed Listing.  Mytrah Energy currently has 309.9 MW of operational assets and, as previously announced, has plans to increase this to over 600 MW following the completion of the Company's development pipeline for 2013, and to over 1,200 MW by the end of 2014.  The portfolio to be acquired by the Business Trust is being evaluated and it is currently envisaged that Mytrah Energy would maintain a significant ownership stake in the Business Trust.  The Company's admission to trading on AIM would be unaffected.

Should the Proposed Listing proceed and be completed as planned, the proceeds raised are expected to be used to pay down all or a substantial part of the senior and mezzanine debt of the Company's subsidiary companies in India and to enable the continued rollout of the Company's pipeline, with the target of developing, in aggregate, 1,500 MW of operational assets during 2015.

Mytrah Energy's overall model is based on building its Indian assets at the most competitive price whilst minimising the development risk, to generate significant value for shareholders.  With this in mind, the stable and predictable nature of the long-term income streams expected to be produced from its significant portfolio of current and near term operational assets have enabled the Company to explore options for the refinancing of the current relatively expensive project based debt with lower cost debt or yield-based equity.  The Directors of Mytrah Energy (the "Directors") believe that the Proposed Listing would optimise the cost of the Company's debt and equity, thus enhancing the underlying value of its assets.

Along with evaluating the Proposed Listing, the Directors continue to explore other options such as the securitisation of revenue streams from the Company's portfolio.  Whilst there can be no certainty that the Proposed Listing or other form of securitisation will proceed, the Directors look forward to providing further updates to shareholders as Mytrah Energy progresses down these routes during the course of this year.
