Guernsey, 10 October 2008 - The Board of Directors of Volta Finance
Limited (the "Company") decided to recommend at its last meeting a
dividend of €0.25 per share for the semi-annual period ended 31 July
2008, amounting to €7.5 million. This dividend will be paid out
of the Company's distributable reserves. Its level corresponds to the
originally anticipated net return on the Company's assets applied
to the Company's performing asset base as of 7 October 2008, the date
of the Company's last Board Meeting.

The Board of Directors believes that this dividend level for the
current period is consistent with the retention of sufficient cash
within the Company so as to seize investment opportunities as they
arise in the current market environment.

The notice of the Annual General Meeting will be sent to the
Company's shareholders along with the Company's Annual Report and
Accounts towards the end of October.
