3 Glitnir bank ASA Introduction The financial turmoil, the situation in Iceland and the general trend in the economy have affected Glitnir Bank ASA in the third quarter of After several international financial institutions applied for creditor protection, failed, or had to be rescued by the authorities, parts of the financial market stopped functioning. This caused challenges for Glitnir banki hf. among others, and the bank was taken over by the Icelandic government at the beginning of October At the same time, a decision was made to sell all foreign subsidiaries, including Glitnir Bank ASA. The situation in Iceland also caused liquidity challenges for Glitnir Bank ASA, and from 9 October 2008 the Bank was secured liquidity of up to NOK 5 billion through support from the Norwegian Banks Guarantee Fund. A process to sell Glitnir Bank ASA was initiated in this connection, and on 20 October an agreement was signed with the SpareBank 1 banks (SpareBank 1 SMN, SpareBank 1 SR-Bank, SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge, Sparebanken Hedmark and Samarbeidende Sparebanker AS) for the acquisition of Glitnir Bank ASA. The subsidiaries Glitnir Privatøkonomi AS and Glitnir Eiendomsfinans AS are not included in the agreement. These companies were taken over by representatives of their respective management teams at the same time. The acquisition of Glitnir Bank ASA is conditional on licensing from the Ministry of Finance, and final clarification is expected during November. The Bank s operations will continue as at present until the issue of licensing has been resolved. The Board of Directors regards this as a good solution for clients, lenders, staff, and the bank s subsidiaries. The SpareBank 1 banks provide a strong basis for further development of the business and relationships with customers, and as new owners they have expressed their interest in continuing to build on the expertise that Glitnir can offer. The price for the Bank was NOK 300 million. This price does not reflect the underlying value, but is a function of the turmoil in the financial sector, the situation in Iceland, and the period of time that was available for carrying out the sale. The financial turmoil, the situation of Glitnir banki hf. and the sale of subsidiaries have resulted in the need for amortisation and write-downs of the bond portfolio and goodwill related to the subsidiaries. In total, this amounted to NOK 359 million before tax in the 3rd quarter, and as a result of this the Group s loss before tax came to NOK 262 million for the quarter. The underlying earnings in the 3rd quarter are at the same level as for the previous quarters. Glitnir Bank ASA Bolig- og Næringsbanken ASA and Glitnir Bank ASA merged in March 2008 with effect for accounting purposes from 1 January Both companies were wholly owned by the Icelandic banking group, Glitnir banki hf., and the merger was implemented with business continuity. Bolig- og Næringsbanken ASA was the acquiring bank in the merger, and the name of the new bank is Glitnir Bank ASA. The accounting figures for 2007 include both banks and have been prepared in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Glitnir Bank ASA is a Norwegian bank subject to Norwegian regulations and supervision. The bank is a member of the Banks Guarantee Fund on a par with other Norwegian banks. Accounting policies Glitnir Bank presents its consolidated accounts and separate company accounts for the Parent Bank in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. No changes were made to the accounting policies in Results As a result of write-downs and amortisation of bonds and goodwill, Glitnir Bank has a loss before tax of NOK 158 million for the year to date. Total write-downs and amortisation amounted to NOK 453 million for the year to date. Adjusted for this, profit before tax came to NOK 295 million at 30 September. Profit before tax at 30 September 2007 was NOK 358 million. In addition to the effects mentioned above, in 2008 the Bank has had expenses related to the implementation of the merger, establishment of the programme for the issue of covered bonds and a loss in Glitnir Privatøkonomi. Pressure on deposit margins and a reduced volume of lending have reduced net interest income. Increased margins in the lending market and increased interest rate levels have however more than compensated for this, and net interest income has increased somewhat during the year to date compared with the corresponding period in The Group s financial instruments which mature after more than one year are reported at fair value. Interest rate risk and exchange rate risk within the Group are low, and fluctuations in interest rates and rates of exchange shall have a limited net profit effect. During periods when interest rate spreads between different instruments develop differently, effects on earnings may arise. During the 1st half-year of 2008 this had a positive effect on earnings, while the effect in the 3rd quarter was negative. As part of the Bank s bond portfolio, since 2006 Glitnir Bank ASA has owned bonds issued by Glitnir banki hf. for NOK 155 million. These were written down in their entirety in the 3rd quarter of [ 3 ]

4 Operating expenses have risen in 2008 compared with In addition to the effects of the consolidation of Glitnir Privatøkonomi and Glitnir Eiendomsfinans, the increase is due to a write-down of goodwill and to merger and marketing costs. The underlying level of costs within the banking operations remains stable. In October 2008, Glitnir Privatøkonomi and Glitnir Eiendomsfinans were taken over by representatives of their respective management teams. The remaining goodwill, totalling NOK 182 million, was charged in its entirety during the 3rd quarter. Lending and Funding During 2008, the Bank has reduced its exposure to areas that are not defined as core business. Among other initiatives, loans to housing co-operatives for NOK 1.4 billion were sold in March In addition, exposure to commercial property has been reduced during the year. Lending totalled NOK 48.2 billion at the end of the 3rd quarter, compared with NOK 49.6 billion at the 2nd quarter of To date this year, lending has decreased by NOK 4.9 billion. Year-to-date deposits have fallen by NOK 4.1 billion. The reduction is primarily related to large corporate customers and deposits of more than NOK 2 million. In the 3rd quarter, deposits decreased by NOK 1.3 billion. Due to the situation in Iceland and the resulting turbulence around Glitnir Bank ASA, deposits declined further in October Of the Bank s lending, 48 % is exposed to real estate operations, while almost 39 % is exposed to the retail market. Loan disbursements have generally been low, but risk may increase if there is a substantial decline in the value of the security for the Bank s lending. In total, the loan portfolio risk is regarded as relatively low. Non-performing loans totalled NOK 431 million at the end of the quarter. This is a higher figure than at the end of the 2nd quarter, when non-performing loans stood at NOK 207 million, having been NOK 127 million at the year-end. The increase in the 3rd quarter is mainly due to a commitment in which the security is regarded as satisfactory. To date this year, the Bank s impairment losses on loans total NOK 15 million. Solvency The Group s capital base, including 50 per cent of the operating profit after impairment losses for the period, was NOK 4,444 million at the close of the period, giving a capital adequacy ratio of 11.0 per cent. Tier 1 capital totalled NOK 3,247 million, giving a tier 1 capital ratio of 8.1 per cent at the end of September Risk-weighted assets amounted to NOK 40,271 million at the same date. The Board of Directors views the relationship between the capital adequacy of Glitnir Bank ASA and relevant risks as satisfactory. By comparison, the tier 1 capital ratio and capital adequacy ratio were 7.6 and 10.5 per cent respectively at the year-end. Outlook The support from the Norwegian Banks Guarantee Fund and the agreement with the SpareBank 1 banks regarding the acquisition of Glitnir Bank ASA ensure liquidity and a good ownership solution for the Bank. Operations will continue as at present until the issue of licensing has been clarified. The way in which the business is to be coordinated with the SpareBank 1 banks will then be considered. Changes in value related to financial instruments may have a greater impact on earnings in 2008 than normal, owing to greater fluctuations in interest rate differences between different types of instrument. The acquisition and the situation in Iceland have resulted in costs for the bank, and somewhat higher expenses must be expected in the 4th quarter. The negative consequences of the financial turmoil for the real economy are likely to increase significantly in the time ahead, and in the fourth quarter of 2008 there will be a risk of greater impairment of loans than previously this year. The underlying operation is regarded as stable and sound, and Glitnir Bank ASA has satisfactory capital adequacy and financial strength in relation to the risk associated with its activities.

Write-downs General In connection with the sale of Glitnir Bank ASA in October 2008, the subsidiaries Glitnir Privatøkonomi AS (GPØ) and Glitnir Eiendomsfinans AS (GEF) were sold. From and including the fourth quarter, these companies will be regarded as discontinued operations under IFRS 5. As a result of the sale, the Bank has written down all recognised values related to the investments in GPØ and GEF in the third quarter.

11 6. Disclosures relating to the merger Bolig- og Næringsbanken ASA (the acquiring company) merged as of 1 January 2008 with Glitnir Bank ASA (the acquired company), and changed the name to Glitnir Bank ASA. The acquired company, Glitnir Bank ASA, operates a banking business in the Parent Bank, and a factoring business through the wholly owned subsidiary Glitnir Factoring AS. All activities belonging to the merged companies have been continued within the merged group. Following the merger, the banking business from the acquired company has been integrated with the banking business in the acquiring company. The merger between Bolig- og Næringsbanken ASA (acquirer) and Glitnir Bank ASA (acquiree) as of 1 January 2008 is a merger under joint control since the parent companies in the merged group were both wholly owned by Glitnir Banki h.f. of Iceland at the date of merger. As a consequence, the merger has been conducted as a business continuity merger in which capitalised assets under IFRS at 31 December 2007 for the merging groups formed the base for the merger balance sheet for the new group at 1 January The acquiree company, Glitnir Bank ASA, did its financial reporting in 2007 under generally accepted accounting principles in Norway (N-GAAP) and has therefore restated the balance sheet figures to IFRS as of 31 December 2007 as the basis for the merger balance sheet. Comparative figures for 2007 in the merged group have been restated as though the merged groups were also a group reporting under IFRS in The last-mentioned applies likewise to the comparative figures for the Parent Bank. Because the merger was conducted as a business continuity merger, no new goodwill arose as a result of the business integration between the merging companies. The acquiring company has however recognised goodwill relating to goodwill recognised in the acquired company in connection with an earlier business integration in the acquired company. In the acquiring company s opinion, recoverable amounts of goodwill exceed the amounts recognised, and the conclusion is not sensitive with regard to the assumptions used when calculating recoverable amounts. In connection with the merger, the acquiring company issued shares with a face value of NOK 50 each, in total NOK 131 million. In addition, the share premium reserve has increased by NOK 68 million.
