BOARD AUTHORIZES ADDITIONAL STOCK REPURCHASES
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;COLUMBUS,
Ohio, May&nbsp;24 &#151; Lancaster Colony Corporation (Nasdaq: LANC) announced today that
its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of 26 cents per share on the
company&#146;s common stock, payable June&nbsp;30, 2006 to shareholders of record on June&nbsp;9, 2006. The board
voted to continue the cash dividend at the higher level set six months ago. At that time, the
company marked 43 consecutive years of increasing cash dividends each year. Lancaster Colony is one
of only 22 U.S. companies to have increased cash dividends each year for 43&nbsp;years.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The board also authorized the repurchase of an additional two million shares of the company&#146;s
common stock as part of an ongoing stock repurchase program. Currently, the company has
approximately 32,597,000 common shares outstanding and approximately 1,285,000 shares remaining
under a previous repurchase authorization.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;John B. Gerlach, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer of Lancaster Colony, said, &#147;The
dividend reflects the company&#146;s continued strong financial position and healthy cash flows. This
will be the 172<SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top">nd</SUP> consecutive quarterly cash dividend paid by the company since
September&nbsp;1963.&#148; Excluding the $2.00 per share special dividend paid this past December, the
indicated annual payout for the current fiscal year ending June&nbsp;30, 2006 is $1.03, a five percent
increase from the 98 cents per share paid in the previous fiscal year. He added, &#147;The authorization
for additional share repurchases gives us flexibility to make the best use of our free cash flow.&#148;

conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe to be appropriate. These
forward-looking statements involve various important risks, uncertainties and other factors that
could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking
