                                Strategic Review 
 
 
 
The Board of Voller Energy Group PLC, a leading developer of fuel cell systems, 
has asked Deloitte Corporate Finance to conduct a strategic review of the 
options open to the Company with the objective of maximising shareholder value. 
These options may include, but are not limited to, strategic alliances, mergers, 
refinancing or a sale of the business.  This process may or may not lead to an 
offer being made for the Company. 
 
Consequently the Company is considered to be in an 'offer period' as defined in 
the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Code"), and the dealing disclosure 
requirements listed below will apply. 
 
In accordance with Rule 2.10 of the Code, Voller confirms that, as at the close 
of business on 21 February 2008, it had 23,000,513 ordinary shares of two pence 
each in issue. The ISIN reference for these securities is GB00B05KZ102. 
 
The Board will announce the outcome of this strategic review as soon as 
practicable.

Dealing Disclosure Requirements 
 
Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the Code, if any person is, or becomes, 
'interested' (directly or indirectly) in 1% or more of any class of 'relevant 
securities' of Voller, all 'dealings' in any 'relevant securities' of that 
company (including by means of an option in respect of, or a derivative 
referenced to, any such 'relevant securities') must be publicly disclosed by no 
later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the London business day following the date 
of the relevant transaction. This requirement will continue until the date on 
which the offer becomes, or is declared, unconditional as to acceptances, lapses 
or is otherwise withdrawn or on which the 'offer period' otherwise ends. If two 
or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether 
formal or informal, to acquire an 'interest' in 'relevant securities' of Voller, 
they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3. 
 
Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Code, all 'dealings' in 'relevant 
securities' of Voller by the offeror or Voller, or by any of their respective 
'associates', must be disclosed by no later than 12.00 noon (London time) on the 
London business day following the date of the relevant transaction. 
 
A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose 'relevant 
securities dealings' should be disclosed, and the number of such securities in 
issue, can be found on the Takeover Panel's website at 
www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk. 
 
'Interests in securities' arise, in summary, when a person has long economic 
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of 
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an 'interest' by 
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in 
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities. 
 
Terms in quotation marks are defined in the Code, which can also be found on the 
Takeover Panel's website. If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are 
required to disclose a 'dealing' under Rule 8, you should consult the Takeover 
Panel.
