Not sure if I got you right.
Presume this is what you are looking for.

set `egrep '^pgm2' temp.txt`
cd dir1
cp $2 $3 $4 $5 $5 $7 new_directory
cd dir2
cp $2 $3 $4 $5 $5 $7 other_directory

If it does not find the file(s) in dir1 or dir2 it might throw some error.
I think you can ignore them. Is that OK?
