<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">News Release


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Ballard Progresses Licensing Strategy Through Telecom Backup Power Agreement in China


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">For Immediate Release &#150; June&nbsp;19, 2014


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Rugao, China &#150; Ballard Power Systems (NASDAQ: BLDP)(TSX: BLD) today announced the signing of a
definitive agreement with Azure Hydrogen (Azure) in relation to an assembly license for Telecom
Backup Power systems for the China market. The agreement has a value of approximately $6&nbsp;million
over the 2014-15 period.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">John Sheridan, Ballard&#146;s President and Chief Executive Officer said, &#147;The Telecom Backup Power
market is a key growth driver for our business and is also a significant opportunity in China given
the scale of the market and China&#146;s growing focus on clean energy technology.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">In addition to the payment for the assembly license, under the agreement Ballard will be the
exclusive supplier of subsystems &#150; including FCgenTM-1020ACS air-cooled fuel cell stacks and fuel
processors &#150; and will receive a royalty payment for each Telecom Backup Power system sold in China,
should Azure successfully execute its Business Plan and achieve volume commitments.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Licensing of Ballard&#146;s deep portfolio of fuel cell intellectual property (IP)&nbsp;and fundamental
know-how, including the recently acquired IP portfolio of United Technologies Corporation which
encompasses approximately 800 PEM fuel cell patents, is a key element of the Company&#146;s three-level
business model, along with product sales and Engineering Services.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Fuel cell systems provide highly reliable backup power solutions for wireless telecom operators at
an attractive lifecycle cost. Ballard&#146;s ElectraGen&#153; portfolio of fuel cell power generation
systems, fuelled by either direct hydrogen or methanol, are particularly well suitable for extended
duration runtime applications. These compact, scalable systems offer significant financial and
environmental advantages in comparison to the alternatives of lead acid batteries or diesel
generators.
