companies/Shareholders Meeting

St, Helier Jersey (euro adhoc) - Meinl Airports International Limited
("MAI", the "Company"), whose certificates representing shares in the
Company are listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange, announces that the
Annual General Meeting ("AGM") will be held at 10.00 a.m. on 28 July
at Hotel de France, St Saviours Road, Jersey JE1 7XP.

The AGM will take place before the Extraordinary General Meeting
("EGM"), which has been requisitioned by certain investors, and will
be held at the same venue on 28 July 2008 at 14.00 or if later,
following the conclusion of the AGM.

The agenda for the AGM includes, in addition to matters relating to
the approval of MAI´s accounts and the re-election of the Company´s
auditors, a resolution to amend MAI´s Articles of Association. This
amendment, if approved, will have the effect of requiring one third
of Directors to stand for re-election on an annual basis, from 2009
onwards. The notice for the AGM, together with a covering letter from
the Chairman of the Company, has been sent to Oesterreichische
Kontrollbank Aktiengesellschaft and Meinl Airport Managers Limited as
registered shareholders of MAI, and may also be found on MAI´s
webpage.

MAI further announces that the Board of Directors, in conjunction
with its financial advisors Blackwood Capital Group and Lazard & Co.,
Ltd, is nearing completion of a detailed strategic review of the
Company. MAI expects to be able to announce the results of this and
its finalised proposals prior to the AGM. The Board is committed to
improving MAI´s governance structure to bring it more in line with
international standards for listed companies. MAI believes this
important step combined with other proposals the Company expects to
announce shortly will be welcomed by the vast majority of investors
in contrast to the uncertain future offered by the requisitionists,
who have still made no clear statement as to their proposals for the
Company, other than as set out in the notice of EGM.

Details on how investors may register for and vote at the AGM and EGM
will be published in the Austrian Official Gazette (Amtsblatt zur
Wiener Zeitung) and on the webpage of the Company within the next few
days. In the meantime, MAI continues to recommend that investors
refrain from making any decisions with respect to their voting
intentions in relation to the resolutions to be proposed at the EGM.

Airports International Limited in connection with the matters
referred to in this announcement and will not be responsible to
anyone other than Meinl Airports International Limited for providing
