Dividends to shareholders are proposed by management at each year end and are subject to approval by the Annual General Assembly Meeting. The Annual General Assembly Meeting which was held on May 30, 2007, approved the distribution of total dividends for the fiscal year 2006 of € 127,400,427 (or € 1.15 per share). It is noted that for 2006 an interim dividend of € 22,156,596 (or € 0.20 per share) has been paid and accounted for in December 2006, while the remaining € 0.95 per share has been paid and accounted for in June 2007. Dividends relating to the previous fiscal year amounted to € 1.10 per share, of which an interim dividend of € 0.20 per share was paid and accounted for in December 2005, and € 0.90 has been paid and accounted for in June 2006.

It is noted that in accordance with Greek Tax legislation, the taxable income is taxed at source (Parent Company) fulfilling all tax obligations on dividends. Thus the dividends payable to the shareholders (physical and legal persons) are paid net of any tax.

There are also legal claims of the Group against third parties amounting to approximately € 75 million (Company: approximately € 63 million). No provision has been made as all of the above cases concern legal claims where the final outcome cannot be currently estimated. In addition, on February 5, 2007 the Greek Competition Committee, by its decision, imposed a fine upon the Company of €1,591 thousand, for its alleged participation in harmonised practices concerning the setting of the jet fuel selling prices.

In prior periods, the Company applied the provisions of L3220/2004 and accounted for tax free reserves of € 5.6 million. The EU Commission has challenged this law as being a government subsidy not in accordance with EU policies and requires the Greek government to request the companies that applied it, to pay the corresponding taxes which cannot be currently estimated until the final outcome of this matter.
