According to the legislation in force, the dividend corresponding to the company’s 2,225,900 treasury shares is applied to the dividend paid out to the other shareholders and hence the dividend is increased to 0.01062 euro per share.


The aforementioned dividend amount is subject to a 10% withholding tax (in accordance with the provisions of article 18 of L.3697/2008), and therefore shareholders will receive a net amount of 0.00955 euro per share.

The commencement for the dividend payment is set for Wednesday, July 14th 2010.


The dividend payment will take place via the National Bank of Greece through the following procedures:

  1. Through the official users in the Dematerialized Securities System according to paragraph 5.5 of the Athens Exchange Regulation and in article 39 of the DSS Rulebook.
  2. Through the branches of the National Bank of Greece for shareholders who have requested the exemption of their official user in the Dematerialized Securities System or have their shares in the Special account of their Investor’s Share Securities account kept with DSS.
  3. Shareholders, who for various reasons, were not able to receive the dividend through their operators will be able to receive their dividend through the branches of the National Bank of Greece.
