Market Wire, April, 2006

EPOLIN, INC. (OTC BB: EPLN) ( www.epolin.com ) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved the adoption of a dividend policy under which the Company will issue a regular annual cash dividend on shares of its common stock. The amount of the dividend, record date and payment date will be subject to approval every year by the Company's Board of Directors.

In accordance with the new dividend policy, the Company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared the first regular annual cash dividend of $0.02 per share to be payable on May 1, 2006 to shareholders of record at the close of business on April 20, 2006. Subject to future analyses of the Company's cash resources and projected cash needs, the Board of Directors intends to continue in the future to consider the Company's dividend policy, including the possibility of the issuance to shareholders of special cash dividends from time to time in addition to the payment of the regular annual dividend.

Murray S. Cohen, Ph.D., Chairman of the Board, stated, "We are pleased that Epolin is in a position today to announce the adoption of a policy to pay a regular annual dividend to our shareholders. Although we have paid certain cash dividends in the past, we never adopted a dividend policy until now. We believe our intended dividend level will still allow us to continue our strategy of sustainable growth."
