Declaration of 2008 Dividend Payment

Declaration of 2008 Dividend Payment

The Management Board of Impel SA reports that at its meeting of March 30th 2009, it adopted a resolution on recommending the Ordinary General Meeting of Impel SA to approve the payment of dividend for the year 2008 of PLN 5,000,000.

At its meeting held on April 9th 2009, the Supervisory Board of Impel SA approved the motion filed by the Management Board of Impel SA proposing to pay its shareholders a dividend of PLN 5,000,000 for the year 2008.

On June 10th 2009, the Management Board of Impel SA decided to recommend the Ordinary General Meeting of Impel SA to allocate PLN 6,212,099.42 i.e. PLN 0.41 per share, for the payment of dividend.

The above-mentioned decision was taken in order to fulfil an earlier declaration of the Management Board, to pay Impel SA shareholders a dividend of PLN 5,000,000 for the year 2008, as reported in Current Report No. 21/2009 of March 31st 2009. Pursuant to Art. 364.2 of the Polish Code of Commercial Partnerships and Companies, profit is distributed for all shares of the Company, and the own shares bought back by the Company under the tender offer of January 6th 2009, will not be redeemed until the dividend date, which is why the change in the amount of the dividend is indispensable in order to maintain the dividend amount previously declared.

The aforementioned principle for the settlement of the dividend payable to the Company’s shareholders, was also applied by the Company in 2004 while paying the 2003 dividend.

Should the above-mentioned Management Board’s recommendation be approved by the Ordinary General Meeting, the actual amount to be paid to the shareholders will total PLN 4,982,099.42.

On June 10th 2009, the Company published draft resolutions to be voted during the Ordinary General Meeting of Impel S.A., concerning allocation of the financial result for 2008 and payment of dividend, with the following wording:
