Impax Group plc
('Impax' or the 'Company')

Publication of circular and notice of general meeting

The Company announces that it posted a circular to shareholders on 14 September 2009 which includes proposals to change the Company's name to Impax Asset Management Group plc and to permit the Company to purchase its own shares. The change of name is being proposed in order to better reflect the Company's asset management focus and to bring its brand in line with its day to day business activity - that of an asset manager dedicated to the environmental sector. The Directors believe that it is also desirable for the Company to have the ability to buy back its shares.

The circular includes a notice of the general meeting to be held at 11.00 a.m on 30th September 2009 at the offices of the Company, Mezzanine Floor, Pegasus House, 37-43 Sackville Street, London W1S 3EH.

A copy of the circular will shortly be available for download on the Company's website at www.impax.co.uk.
