   Hamburg, Germany, 19th June 2024
     * Master Supply Agreement for the delivery of 63 wind turbines
       with a capacity of up to 15 MW from Siemens Gamesa
     * Gennaker project continues to progress
     * Adding 945 MW to the clean energy transition in Germany


   Skyborn Renewables (Skyborn) advances the Gennaker offshore wind
   project with an updated Master Supply Agreement signed today with
   Siemens Gamesa for the delivery of 63 SG 14-236 DD wind turbines
   with a power boost of up to 15MW and a rotor diameter of 236
   meters. This agreement strengthens the long-term partnership
   between the two companies and upgrades the wind turbine
   technology to state-of-the-art wind turbines, replacing the 2022
   Master Supply Agreement which provided for the delivery of 103 SG
   8.0-167 DD Siemens Gamesa wind turbines (with a power boost of up
   to 9 MW). The Gennaker project continues to progress with the
   main soil investigation nearing completion, foundation design
   contract signed, and responses to tenders for other main wind
   farm components and installation vessels under review.


   "Securing this new Master Supply Agreement for the wind turbines
   is an important milestone for the Gennaker project, solidifying
   further planning - especially important in today's tight supply
   chain environment. It is also testament to the strong commitment
   of all parties involved in realizing the project," says Patrick
   Lammers, CEO of Skyborn. "Offshore wind power is critical for
   boosting renewables in the energy mix. The Gennaker project will
   directly contribute to Germany's and Mecklenburg-Western
   Pomerania's climate goals," Lammers adds.


   At 945 MW, Gennaker will become the most powerful offshore wind
   farm in the German Baltic Sea to date. Located approximately 15
   kilometers north of the Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula, the
   project area sits within a designated priority zone for offshore
   wind energy in the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania coastal sea.
   Skyborn secured the initial building permit for the Gennaker site
   in May 2019 and maintains site exclusivity for development.
   Offshore construction works are planned to commence in 2027.
