Investments in the renewable energy and cleantech sectors ave grown exponentially over the last decade. The value of the cleantech sector alone is projected to triple in size to $2.2 trillion by 2020. This global shift towards sustainable energy and cleantech solutions is unstoppable and OPEN offers a unique approach to capitalizing on its potential, generating profit and creating a better world.

Governments the world over, the United Nations and international organizations, such as the World Economic Forum, are driving a global agenda to address economic and environmental risk. This convergence is directing a shared commitment to move to a leaner, more sustainable energy infrastructure worldwide; the drive to find new energy solutions and minimize the impacts of climate.

WHY OPENOPEN takes a global approach to a global problem

OPEN invests in technologies that change the way the world works

As climate change increasingly manifests itself with volatile and unpredictable weather patterns that wreak havoc, the impact on food, fuel and water supplies presents an increasing challenge to the globalised economy. Climate change is therefore not a future threat but a risk multiplier today. It is ‘here and now’, and governments and global agencies are working together to help reverse its effects.

This will result in a major transition to low carbon technologies and an iterative growth in renewables and cleantech. OPEN brings a global philosophy of seeking innovation worldwide, focusing on local initiatives to bring about a global solution. As our name suggests, we are OPEN to the possibilities of the future, OPEN to new ideas and new ways of thinking: OPEN to change.

OPEN specialises in investing in what is known variously as cleantech, envirotech and green tech. We define it broadly as investments in knowledge-based products or services that improve operational performance, productivity, or efficiency while reducing costs, energy consumption, waste, or pollution.

Our focus is not limited to any single sector, but rather on technological innovations within many different industrial sectors, which result in cleaner, leaner, lower emissions societies. OPEN is aligned with an expectation that expects to see huge growths in this sector, profiting investors, people, and the planet itself.

OPEN PORTFOLIOOPEN invests in companies that operate in the cleantech and renewable energy sectors. These are companies that develop:

Page 10: OPEN Solutions Landscape Brochure

With a focus on Envirotech, OPEN will invest in two main asset classes

RENEWABLE ENERGY

At OPEN we believe that environmental concerns coupled with increasing energy price volatility will continue to drive the clean energy market growth.

Utilities are mandated to diversify their generation, and corporations are increasingly looking to renewable energy as a means of managing energy costs, ensuring supply and protecting their brands.

Renewable energy saw over a trillion dollars invested during 2004-2011 and, no longer just an ‘alternative’, we believe investment will continue as it enters the mainstream.

CLEAN TECHNOLOGIES

At OPEN we also believe in the transformational opportunities of cleantech. HSBC’s Climate Change Centre projected that the cleantech market alone could be worth $ 2.2 trillion by 2020 and longer term projections are even higher. As the growing middle classes of the developing world drive consumption growth, every industrial sector will require increased efficiency and means of addressing resource scarcity.

Growing environmental concerns are opening up entirely new markets for new approaches to the products and services we use. Targeted investment across the value chain, changing the dynamics of supply, is set to drive a global transformation – and OPEN invests in the opportunities this provides.

OPEN DIVERSIFICATIONFor OPEN diversification is more than a word to attract investor attention; it is the core of our corporate strategy

Whilst most cleantech investment firms focus on a single technology or geographic location, OPEN will diversify and, and as a result differentiate itself from other similar finance firms on many levels. Some of the OPEN diversification fundamentals:

For many reasons, OPEN is a company that makes a difference

Page 13: OPEN Solutions Landscape Brochure

OPEN will diversify its investment strategy in two main categories of asset classes, each with its own investment characteristics

INCOME

Renewable energy production installations have as a key investment driver the characteristic that they generate predictable long-term income as they are underpinned by Power Purchase Agreements and/or Feed-in Tariffs.

OPEN focuses on low financial risk projects that use proven technologies and operate on long-term contracts. Therefore these investments are highly attractive for private and institutional investors alike that want to have significant long-term income potential.

Renewable energy investments may prove to be the perfect nexus between creating environmental and social progress whilst earning consistent financial returns on your investment.

CAPITAL GROWTH

Private equity investments in clean technology companies can generate above average short to midterm capital growth. By participating in the equity of highgrowth cleantech companies, OPEN sets itself the objective to create wealth for all its stakeholders.

OPEN shall invest in early stage companies requiring funding for business development and/or established companies that want to expand their existing business. Notwithstanding the lifecycle phase, the sole objective of the private equity investment is to realize a return on investment for the investors.

OPEN makes investments in clean technology companies with passionate, energetic and experienced management teams, and strong underlying value and growth prospects.
