         From only GBP9.90 per month* with no setup fee and no minimum

                              contract period

    Strato's range of virtual servers is being extended with immediate
effect with the introduction of Windows Servers. The latest generation of
Strato Virtual Windows Servers is based on the virtualisation solution
Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V from Microsoft and can be ordered starting at
just GBP9.90 per month*. The new Virtual Windows Servers are available in
three different sizes with up to 200 GB hard disk storage, their own IP
address and unlimited traffic. Further information on Strato Virtual Windows
Servers can be found at

    "We offer our customers Windows Servers with no additional charge for
the Windows OS environment. Therefore our customers get the Virtual Windows
Servers Small, Medium and Large at the same price as our Virtual Linux
Servers with the equivalent specification - and without a long-term
contractual obligation or set-up fee," commented Damian Schmidt, Chief
Executive Officer at Strato.

    Virtual servers have been available from Strato since 2008, providing
customers with a real alternative to dedicated servers. The new virtual
servers from Microsoft are extremely efficient due to Windows Server 2008 R2
Hyper-V. They guarantee customers an independent, self-contained server
environment with fixed resources of up to 4 GB of RAM. In this way, the
performance of Virtual Windows Servers is not affected by other virtual
servers which are located on the same physical machine.

    The Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V virtualisation solution offers
another significant advantage to customers of Strato Virtual Servers: like
Windows Web Server 2008 R2 and Windows Web Server 2008 SP2 operating
systems, it is a Microsoft product and therefore fully supports Windows.
System-level drivers and updates can be installed immediately and without
modifications. In this way, Strato customers can benefit from compatibility
and stability, which are not offered by other virtualisation solutions.

    Notes to Editors

    * Prices exclude VAT, no minimum contract period. Payment is taken one
month in advance. Automatic contract renewal, if no notice of termination
has been given with a period of one month to the end of the contract.
