£2.31 Million Paid To Company
– Coghill Capital Management Becomes 12.4%  Shareholder–

Los Angeles, California and London, UK, June 23, 2008 – Solar Integrated Technologies, Inc. (AIM:SIT.LN), a leading provider of building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) roofing systems, today announces that the UPC group of renewable energy companies operating in Europe, Asia and the U.S., through an affiliated entity, SI Holdings, BV, which is majority owned by Brian E. Caffyn, the non-executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of Solar Integrated, has exercised a warrant to purchase 7,700,000 common shares of Solar Integrated at an exercise price of £0.30 per share resulting in aggregate proceeds to the Company of £2.31 million (currently equivalent to approximately U.S. $4.6 million).  The 7,700,000 common shares represents 7.8% of the enlarged issued share capital.  The warrant was previously issued in connection with the Company’s December 2006 equity capital raise and related restructuring.  SI Holdings, BV has also sold 5,000,000 shares of the Company to CCM Master Qualified Fund, Ltd., a fund managed by Coghill Capital Management, LLC, at £1.07 per share, the closing bid price of the Company’s shares on June 20, 2008. The 5,000,000 common shares represents 5.0% of the enlarged issued share capital.  After giving effect to these transactions, funds managed by Coghill Capital Management hold 12.4% of the Company’s enlarged issued share capital.

Including shares previously held, SI Holdings, BV, now holds 4,533,333 shares, representing 4.6% of the enlarged issued share capital.  As part of the sale, Mr. Caffyn has agreed, on behalf of SI Holdings, BV, to a lock-up or resale restrictions for these remaining shares until June 30, 2009.  SI Holdings, BV also holds a warrant to purchase 3,300,000 shares of the Company at £2.50 per share.  The sale of the 5,000,000 shares occurred after market close on June 20, 2008 which was the effective date of notification to Solar Integrated.

“With the Company’s growth plan and UPC’s continued investment in complementary solar activities in Europe and the U.S., the timing was right to exercise the warrant and get that capital into the Company,” stated Brian E. Caffyn.  “It is my intent to continue as the non-executive Chairman and remain a significant shareholder of the Company.  I am proud of the Solar Integrated team and their accomplishments over the past 18 months, including the progress made to date to improve the Company’s financial performance.”

“This is an excellent outcome for the Company for three reasons,” stated R. Randall MacEwen, President & CEO of Solar Integrated.  “First, as these warrants are already included in our fully diluted share count, this £2.31 million is our lowest cost of capital and supports our working capital requirements.  Second, UPC plans to further invest in complementary solar activities that are expected to drive continued value for Solar Integrated.  Mr. Caffyn’s UPC group of companies have already been valuable customers, with $16.5 million of business over the past year, and we expect a multiple of that going forward.  And third, we are honoured with the continued confidence in Solar Integrated’s business plan and execution capabilities that underlie Coghill’s increased investment.  Coghill Capital Management is a high quality investor with a proven track record on its investment approach, including its PV investments.”

The 7,700,000 new common shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrant will be issued as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing issued and outstanding common shares, including as to voting rights and the right to receive any future dividends and other distributions.  The Company’s enlarged issued share capital (i.e. after giving effect to the exercise of warrants) has 99,331,105 common shares issued and outstanding.  Application will be made for admission of the 7,700,000 common shares to AIM which is expected to be effective on 27 June 2008.
