PUBLIC WARNING BY THE FINANCIAL SUPERVISION AUTHORITY TO CENCORP CORPORATION


Cencorp Corporation has today been notified of the following decision by  the   
Financial  Supervision   Authority                                              

"PUBLIC WARNING BY FIN-FSA TO CENCORP FOR NEGLECT OF DISCLOSURE OBLIGATION"   

The Financial Supervision Authority (FIN-FSA) has issued a public warning to    
Cencorp Corporation for neglect of the disclosure obligation.                   

The FIN-FSA is of the view that Cencorp's conduct has repeatedly during the year
2006 been in violation of financial markets provisions, since it has provided   
unjustified estimates of the company's prospects and has delayed the correction 
of these estimates and because, due to the recognition of a deferred tax asset, 
has failed to give a true and fair view of the result of the company's          
operations and financial position in its financial statements for 2005 and 2006.
Due to the continuous and repetitive nature of the company's misconduct, FIN-FSA
is of the opinion that the company's behaviour qualifies for a public warning.  

The prospects of the company's net sales and results published by Cencorp in    
2006 were unjustified, since in publishing its prospects, the company failed to 
pay due attention to its actual performance and uncertainties related to its    
business operations, such as changes in customers' purchasing behaviour and     
tightening of the competitive situation. The further the period proceeded, the  
clearer the excessive optimism of the prospects became. The company revised its 
prospects during the period, but these changes were inadequate and were not made
without undue delay. The company has failed to provide sufficient justifications
for the guidance it issued.                                                     

The financial statements for 2005 and 2006 failed to give a true and fair view  
of the result of the company's operations and financial position, as the        
consolidated financial statements contained a material error. The company should
not have recognised deferred tax assets for the carry forward of unused tax     
losses in its consolidated financial statements for years 2005 and 2006. The    
criteria for recognising a deferred tax asset for carry forward of unused tax   
losses were not met, since the company had a history of recent losses and it    
could not present in its consolidated financial statements for 2005 and 2006    
other convincing evidence, as required by IAS 12 Income Taxes, that sufficient  
taxable profit would be available against which the unused tax losses could be  
utilised. The amount of the error was material, since the deferred tax asset,   
the recognition criteria of which was not met, amounted to 24% of equity in the 
consolidated balance sheet on 31 December 2005, and 51% of equity on 31 December
2006. The company announced its decision to restate in its financial statements 
for 2007 the comparative figures for 2005 and 2006 concerning the deferred tax  
asset.                                                                          

This is the first public warning issued by the FIN-FSA. A public warning is an  
administrative sanction, which the FIN-FSA has been authorised to issue since   
2003.                                                                           

The decision is not legally final as Cencorp Corporation has the right to appeal
the decision, issued on 3 March 2008, with the Market Court within 30 days of   
receiving the decision.                                                         

FINANCIAL SUPERVISION AUTHORITY                                               

Cencorp Corporation has made an internal investigation in the matter and        
restated in its financial statements for 2007 the comparative figures for 2005  
and 2006 concerning the deferred tax asset as released on January 18, 2008.     

Opinion of Cencorp Corporation is that company has acted diligently in the      
matter and given the answers  requested  to  the Financial Supervision          
Authority.                                                                      

According to the decision of the Financial Supervision Authority the matter as a
whole does not require any stricter actions.
