PAYMENT OF THE ADDITIONAL ACQUISITION PRICE FOR CIDERCONE LIFE-CYCLE SOLUTIONS OY (IXONOS OUTSOURCING SERVICES LTD)

IXONOS PLC	STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 20 APRIL 2009                                
                                        
In its meeting on 19 April 2009, Ixonos Plc's Board of Directors has decided to 
pay EUR 7.8 million as the additional acquisition price in accordance with the 4
September 2007 share purchase agreement for Cidercone Life-Cycle Solutions Oy.  
The amount of the additional acquisition price is based on Ixonos Plc's view of 
the correct additional acquisition price. Negotiations with the seller have not 
led to consensus on the amount of the additional acquisition price.             

Under the share purchase agreement, if consensus on the amount of the additional
acquisition price is not reached, the party that is unsatisfied with the        
decision can commence arbitration proceedings in accordance with the Arbitration
Rules of the Finnish Central Chamber of Commerce.                               

Ixonos has funded the payment of the additional acquisition price through       
undertaking EUR 4 million in non-current liabilities as well as EUR 4 million in
current liabilities.
