We have calculated the [ital E]1 and [ital E]2 contributions to the low-energy [sup 8]B+[sup 208]Pb[r arrow][ital p]+[sup 7]Be+[sup 208]Pb Coulomb dissociation cross sections using the kinematics of a recent experiment at RIKEN. Using a potential model description of the [sup 7]Be([ital p],[gamma])[sup 8]B reaction, we find that the [ital E]2 contributions cannot [ital a] priori be ignored in the analysis of the data. Its inclusion reduces the extracted [sup 7]Be([ital p],[gamma])[sup 8]B [ital S] factor at solar energies by about 25%.
