The Company hereby announces that, according to the resolution of its Shareholders' Annual General Meeting of June 29th, 2007, the dividend for the financial year 2006 amounts to € 0,10 per share.
Beneficiaries of the dividend are the Company's shareholders after the July 2nd, 2007 market close at the Athens Exchange. From July 3rd, 2007, the Company's shares will trade ex-dividend for the financial year 2006.

The dividend will be paid, according to the procedure set by the Athens Exchange Regulations, the Hellenic Exchanges S.A., by ALPHA BANK (tel. no.: 210 3265530, 210 3265512, contact person: Mrs Maria Vlachou) which will deposit the Company's dividend with:

- have not issued, or recalled the relevant authorization of dividend collection with an administrator,
- have not given their shares for dematerialisation.
Dividend can be collected by a third party, provided they present an authorization document authenticated by a State Authority, as well as the aforementioned documents.
