Item 8.01. Other Events.
Richard Roberts, the Company’s Vice President and Director of Export, adopted a written plan in accordance with Rule 10b5–1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the purpose of selling a portion of his Central European Distribution Corporation equity holdings. Mr. Roberts’ plan covers the possible sale of up to 9,000 shares of common stock over the period commencing August 8, 2006 and ending no later than August 15, 2007, subject to the terms of the plan.
A Rule 10b5–1 plan is designed to enable a corporate insider to avoid any real or perceived conflict of interest in connection with the trading of company securities. A written plan is established at a time when the corporate insider does not have material inside information. Once the plan is executed, the corporate insider does not retain any discretion over the securities traded as the broker administering the plan is authorized to trade company securities in volumes and at prices determined independently by the broker, subject to the terms set forth in the plan.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Central European Distribution Corporation has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
