(TSX VENTURE:REO)(FRANKFURT:ROC)(BERLIN:ROC) ("Reservoir" or the "Company") is pleased to report that its independent hydroelectric power consultant, Energoprojekt Hidroinzenjering Co. Ltd. ("EHC") of Belgrade, Serbia, has completed a feasibility study for the Company's Brodarevo 1 and Brodarevo 2 hydroelectric projects on the River Lim in southwest Serbia. Highlights of the feasibility study include: -- Recommended increase in capacity from 58.4 megawatts ("MW") to 59.1 MW; -- Projected output of 232.5 gigawatt hours per year ("GWh/year"); -- Capital cost of approximately EUR145.83 million; -- Estimated after-tax equity internal rate of return ("IRR") of 24.04%; and -- Estimated after-tax levered net present value ("NPV") using a 10% discount rate of EUR71.72 million. Plant Design EHC has recommended a capacity increase from the pre-feasibility of 58.4 MW to 59.1 MW, with a corresponding output of 232.5 GWh/year. The study has also defined dam sites and provided recommendations for the design of the hydroelectric power plants, as summarized in the table below: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Water Gross Installed Level Head Discharge Capacity Output License Plant Site (m.a.s.l.(i)) (m) (m3/s) (MW) (GWh/year) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brodarevo 1 Junakovina 519 19.73 150 26.0 103.4 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brodarevo 2 Lucice 488 24.70 150 33.1 129.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 59.1 232.5 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- (i) metres above sea level Capital Cost Total capital cost of the project is estimated to be EUR145.83 million, including EUR34.08 million related to the construction of 7.31 kilometres of new road and tunnels on the M21 highway between Prijepolje and Bijelo Polje, where it will be affected by the project. The budgeted costs are set out in the following table: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hydro- mecha- Mecha- Elect- nical nical rical Civil Equip- Equip- Equip- Prime Working Works ment ment ment Costs Capital Total License (EUR000) (EUR000) (EUR000) (EUR000) (EUR000) (EUR000) (EUR000) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brodarevo 1 19,134 5,184 8,151 12,250 26,358 711 71,787 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brodarevo 2 23,806 4,911 8,787 11,813 23,993 733 74,043 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 42,940 10,095 16,938 24,063 50,351 1,444 145,830 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- % of Total 29% 7% 12% 17% 35% 1% 100% --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: Capital expenditure estimates include contingencies of 8% on the civil works, 5% on equipment and roads and 15% on the construction of the road tunnels.

Electricity Sales & Operating Costs The Brodarevo 1 and 2 projects have been included in the Italy-Serbia bilateral agreement on renewable energy, whereby Serbia may export green energy into Italy (see Company news release of February 7, 2012). Under the terms of this agreement, all renewable energy produced by approved projects in Serbia and exported to Italy will receive a guaranteed price of EUR155 per MW hour ("MWh") for a 15-year term. For the purposes of the feasibility study, EHC has used a more conservative net realized price of EUR147.5 per MWh to reflect costs associated with transmitting the power from Serbia to Italy and assumed that the projects will sell electricity into the regional Serbian market following the initial 15-year term at a projected price of EUR80 per MWh. EHC has estimated annual operating expenses of EUR1.1 million for Brodarevo 1 and EUR1.3 million for Brodarevo 2, for a total of EUR2.4 million per year or EUR10.2 per MWh on average. Financial Analysis Based on EHC's assumptions and calculations, the after-tax unlevered IRR is estimated to be 13.14% for Brodarevo 1, 16.79% for Brodarevo 2 and 15.07% for the combined projects. The after-tax unlevered NPV of the combined projects at an 8% discount rate is estimated to be EUR98.657 million, and at a 10% discount rate is estimated to be EUR58.797 million. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unlevered After-Tax Financial Metric Brodarevo 1 Brodarevo 2 Combined --------------------------------------------------------------------------- IRR 13.14% 16.79% 15.07% --------------------------------------------------------------------------- NPV @ 8% (EUR000) 34,507 63,869 98,657 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- NPV @ 10% (EUR000) 17,441 41,215 58,797 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reservoir anticipates 30% of the project capital will be financed by equity and intends to obtain debt from a syndicate of lenders for the remaining 70%. For the purposes of the feasibility study, the Company has assumed, based on preliminary discussions with potential lenders, that the debt will have a 15-year term from initial drawdown and be subject to an annual interest rate of 6.5%. Based on EHC's assumptions and the capital structure outlined above, the after-tax equity internal rate of return for the combined projects is estimated to be 24.04%. The after-tax levered NPV of the combined projects at an 8% discount rate is estimated to be EUR101.20 million and at a 10% discount rate is estimated to be EUR71.72 million. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Levered After-Tax Financial Metric IRR NPV @ 8% (EUR000) NPV @ 10% (EUR000) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Combined 24.04% 101,202 71,725 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "We are very pleased to have reached this important milestone and encouraged that the feasibility study projects a solid economic return on both Brodarevo 1 and 2," said Miljana Vidovic, President & CEO.
