Icelandic Group hf. - Company Announcement

- Icelandic Group sells Ocean to Ocean inventories and trademarks in Canada

Ocean to Ocean, a subsidiary of Icelandic USA, sold its Ocean to Ocean Canada trade name, customer lists, packaging, Canadian trademarks and brands and inventory. The buyers are the management of Ocean to Ocean Canada. Included in the management group are Joe Wineck and Lillian Chow, the entity's President and Executive Vice President, respectively. They hold the majority of the shares. The marketplace in the commodity shrimp arena has become increasingly difficult in recent years and Ocean to Ocean sold its US inventories and trademarks in December 2007. This sale allows Icelandic USA to focus on its core competency which is valued added seafood and commodity Groundfish products. The sale does not have significant effects on the Income statement and Balance sheet of Icelandic Group but the operations of Ocean to Ocean have been making a loss for some years. Looking ahead this will have a positive effect on the operations of Icelandic USA. The purpose of the sale is to sharpen the focus within Icelandic Group´s operation and to lower debt.
