The dividend is payable on January 20, 2009 to stockholders of record at the close of business on January 5, 2009.

“In light of the current volatility in the financial markets, we felt it was important to review our strategic use of cash,” stated Steven G. Mihaylo, chief executive officer of iMergent. “At this time, we believe the most effective use of cash in the current economic environment is to continue our share repurchase program, which was commenced in August 2006.
