September 11, 2003 (Toronto, ON) – CryptoLogic Inc., a leading software developer to the Internet gaming and e-commerce industries, announced today that its Board of Directors has adopted a quarterly dividend policy. The decision to declare a regular dividend at this time is the result of the recent quarters of consistent positive financial results and the company’s strong financial position. The Board has approved the first dividend of $0.03 per common share, payable on November 24, 2003 to shareholders of record as at November 17, 2003, and will commence regular quarterly dividends with the release of the company’s fourth quarter results. Each future quarterly dividend will be subject to Board approval based on the company’s financial results.
