TOUAX TO PAY INTERIM DIVIDEND

During its meeting of 5 January 2009, and in light of results at 30 November 2008, the Management Board authorized payment of an interim dividend of €0.50 per share on 12 January 2009.

TOUAX provides operational leasing services for shipping containers, modular buildings, river barges, and freight railcars to customers around the world, for its own account and on behalf of investors. As the European leader in shipping container and river barge leasing, and one of the challengers in modular buildings and freight railcars, TOUAX is well-positioned to take advantage of the surge in the outsourcing of non-strategic assets by offering efficient, flexible leasing solutions. The Group's diversification and synergies among its four businesses (shipping containers, modular buildings, river barges, and freight railcars) provide a solid foundation and considerable growth potential.

TOUAX is listed in Paris on NYSE Euronext - Euronext Paris Compartment B (ISIN code FR0000033003) www.touax.com
