INTERTAPE ANNOUNCES THAT NONE OF ITS DIRECTOR NOMINEES WILL SEEK RE-ELECTION IF ARRANGEMENT IS DEFEATED AND DISSIDENT NOMINEES ELECTED AS CURRENTLY PROPOSED

Board Reaffirms Support for Proposed Plan of Arrangement

Dissident has yet to articulate specific proposals that could reasonably be expected to create value for shareholders

Deadline to Deposit Proxy Further Extended to 4:30 EDT Today

Montreal, Quebec and Bradenton, Florida. June 27, 2007 – Intertape Polymer Group Inc. (NYSE: ITP; TSX: ITP.TO) (“IPG” or the “Company”) announced today that it has been advised by its nominated directors that they will not seek re-election if the Arrangement is defeated and the Dissident’s nominees are elected as currently proposed. The Board reaffirmed its support for the previously announced plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) involving the Company and an entity formed by Littlejohn Fund III, L.P., pursuant to which all of the outstanding common shares of the Company are to be acquired at a price of US$4.76 per share in cash as fully detailed in Intertape’s management information circular dated May 25, 2007.

The Board continues to recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the Arrangement, which is the result of an extensive, publicly disclosed, strategic review process that carefully considered all available options. In the course of this process, Intertape received and considered proposals for an en bloc sale, for the sale of a division and for a significant investment. Intertape also considered possible financing opportunities.

The Board recognizes that Intertape’s shareholders have a right to accept or reject the Board’s recommendation.

Board Composition

6789536 Canada Inc. (the “Dissident”) had originally proposed in its dissident proxy circular dated June 18, 2007 to replace all of the current members of the Board of Directors and is currently, in its dissident proxy circular as amended on June 21, 2007 (together, the “Dissident Circular”), proposing to nominate and cause the election of three directors to a six-person Board. The Dissident appears to assume that three incumbent directors – whom the Dissident was originally seeking to remove – will now agree to stand for election on this basis, and then continue to sit or be replaced.

Intertape has been advised that none of its nominated directors intend, for the reasons set forth below, intend to serve as directors of Intertape in the event the Arrangement is not approved by the Shareholders and the Dissident’s nominees are elected as currently proposed. The directors are concerned among other things with the absence of any clear plans or proposals by the Dissident, including with respect to future leadership of the Company.

No clear plans or proposals

Intertape and its Board continue to believe that the Dissident has failed to articulate specific proposals that could reasonably be expected to create value for shareholders and has failed to take appropriate action to address the concerns expressed by the Company with respect to the Dissident’s proposals and its disclosure in respect thereof. Among other things, the Dissident Circular alludes to a possible rights offering without indicating or addressing: (a) the size, terms, conditions, structure or timing of such a rights offering and the risk that such additional financing might not be available on a timely basis and on acceptable terms; (b) the consequences of raising additional capital, such as the potential highly dilutive effect on existing shareholders who do not make an additional investment in Intertape; (c) whether any of the Company's larger shareholders or other persons are willing to underwrite or backstop any such offering on acceptable terms; or (d) the fact that the Company is and would, even with a substantial rights offering, remain highly leveraged.

Covenants

In the event the Arrangement is not approved by the shareholders at the upcoming meeting the Company will have to review and consider the impact of that event, the Company’s recent financial performance and the transaction costs incurred, on the Company's ability to comply with the financial and other covenants under its principal credit facilities and may have to seek or obtain appropriate accommodations from its lenders with respect to such covenants.

Postponed Meeting

On June 25, 2007, as permitted by the interim order issued by the Superior Court of Quebec on May 24, 2007 (the “Interim Order”) Intertape announced it had postponed its Annual and Special Meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”) to 4:30 p.m. (Montreal time) on Thursday June 28, 2007. The Meeting will be held at the Hotel Omni Mont Royal, 1050 Sherbrooke Street West, Montreal, Québec.

As a result of postponing the Meeting, the deadline for the deposit of proxy forms was (as provided by the interim order and Intertape’s management proxy circular) automatically extended to 4:30 p.m. (Montreal time) on June 26, 2007. The Company has further extended that delay to 4:30 p.m. today, as permitted by the Interim Order.

Intertape considers that each shareholder’s vote is important regardless of the number of shares owned and encourages all shareholders to vote if they have not already done so.
