Sorry my answer took so long.
What you can do is mark an image, go on the Metadata tab, there should 
be a button 'save metadata'. Then you can mark the image you want to 
import the metadata to, go on 'image' --> 'metadata' --> 'import exif'. 
It's a bit tedious if you have more then a few images, as there doesn't 
seem to be a batch way of doing it. Names of the buttons and menus might 
be different, as I use a german interface and back-translated the names.
