SatCon Requests Hearing on Nasdaq Listing

SatCon Technology Corp(Nasdaq GM: SATC) announced on September 1, 2006 that the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department notified the Company on August 30, 2006 that it failed to comply with the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Global Market because the market value of the Company’s listed securities had fallen below $50,000,000 for 10 consecutive business days.


The Company was provided a period of 30 calendar days, or until September 29, 2006, to regain compliance. The market value of SatCon’s common stock is still below the minimum and is thus subject to delisting from Nasdaq.


SatCon has requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to review the Staff’s determination. The request for a hearing will stay the Staff’s determination and, as a result, the Company’s securities will remain listed on The Nasdaq Global Market until the Panel issues its decision following the hearing. The Company expects the hearing to be held in approximately 30 to 45 days. There can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market.


In accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rules, the Company could, prior to the hearing, apply to transfer its securities to The Nasdaq Capital Market. If such an application were approved, the hearing would be cancelled. Alternatively, the Company could proceed with the hearing and mention to the Panel that it is willing to consider The Nasdaq Capital Market as an option.
