| 21.11.2008 - The Board of Directors of Meinl International Power Limited acknowledges receipt of an “Open Letter” from Meinl Bank AG of 20 November. The Board takes note of the content of this letter. Matters relating to the investment strategy of the board of MIP and similar governance issues will be dealt with through the usual mechanisms of announcements to and meetings of all shareholders. Therefore, for corporate governance reasons it is impossible to correspond on such issues with one special interest party of shareholders alone, as suggested in the Meinl Bank letter. It goes without saying that the MIP Board acknowledges the principal of equal treatment of all shareholders in case of a possible interim dividends or a certificate buyback program.
