Jelmoli (SWF:JEL) Corporate news announcement processed and transmitted by Hugin AS. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------- The Board of Directors of Jelmoli has decided to postpone the Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting, originally scheduled for November 5, 2008.



The reason for the postponement is that the finalization of the refinancing arrangements for Jelmoli's current debt facilities will require more time than anticipated in light of significant changes in the financial market environment. The Board of Directors considers it to be in the best interest of the company and its shareholders to finalize the negotiations with the debt providers before the shareholders are asked to vote on the strategic Plan. A new date for the extraordinary shareholders meeting will be communicated in due course.
