"BayWa r.e.'s view is that the claim filed by Hanwha against BayWa r.e. is 
without technical and legal merit. BayWa r.e. fully respects intellectual 
property rights and takes any allegations to the contrary very seriously.

"BayWa r.e. will continue to investigate the allegations and co-operate with 
its supply chain partners to take all steps necessary to defend itself against 
the claim. 

"As always, BayWa r.e. will continue to keep its customers and partners fully 
apprised of any developments. Day-to-day business is unaffected, and we 
continue to be committed to providing the very best customer service." 

Durmus Yildiz, Managing Director of BayWa r.e. Solar Systems Pty Ltd
