Guernsey, 16 December 2010 - The fifth Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Volta Finance Limited (the "Company" or "Volta Finance" or "Volta") was held on 16th December 2011. All resolution (listed below) was passed.
1. To adopt the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 July 2011, including the reports of the Directors and the Auditors (the "Accounts").

2. To reappoint KPMG Channel Islands Limited of 20 New Street, St Peter Port, Guernsey as the Company's Auditors to hold office until the conclusion of the next AGM.

3. To authorise the Board to negotiate and fix the remuneration of the Auditors in respect of the year ending 31 July 2012.

4. To re-elect Christian Jimenez as an Independent Director of the Company for a term of three years.

5. To approve a final dividend for the period ended 31 July 2011 in respect of the Company's ordinary shares of €0.22 per share, with an ex dividend date of 20 December 2011, a record date of 22 December 2011 and a payment date of 16 January 2012.

6. To approve a proposal by the Board that Volta shareholders may, in accordance with Article 29.(18)* of the Company's Memorandum and Articles of Incorporation, elect to receive the final dividend for the period ended 31 July 2011 and any future dividends either in cash or Volta shares**.

* Article 29. (18) states as follows: Subject to the Laws, the Board may, if authorised by an ordinary resolution, offer those Members of a particular class of shares in respect of any dividend the right to elect to receive shares by way of a scrip dividend instead of cash.

** The conversion price will be computed as the Volume Weighted Average Price ("VWAP") of the Company's shares during the 4 weeks preceding the AGM minus the €0.22 dividend. For semi-annual dividend, the conversion price will be computed as the VWAP of the Company's shares during the 4 weeks preceding the Board at which such dividend is decided minus the dividend per share.

In line with the computation mechanism set out in Resolution 6, the conversion price that has been retained is €3.9981 per share. As a consequence, every Volta's shareholder will have to choose to receive either €22 cents per share or to receive three new share for every 41 shares*** or any combination of both formulas. The default option will be payment in cash.

Ex dividend date is the 21st December 2011, record date the 22nd December 2011 and payment date the 16th of January 2012.

*** The payment of dividend in shares in certain jurisdictions may be restricted (for example, such payment may not be offered within the United States or to of the account of US persons without a public offering duly documented and accepted by the relevant U.S. authorities) or prohibited by law. Shareholders are required to inform themselves about and to observe any such restriction and prohibition.
