PRESS RELEASE Third quarter report and accounts 2007: A very good result for SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge Main features (amounts and percentages in brackets refer to 2006): A very good result o Pre-tax operating result: NOK 643 million (NOK 601 million) o After-tax return on equity capital: 17.9 per cent (19.5%) o Earnings per PCC (Primary Capital Certificate) so far this year: NOK 7.13 (NOK 7.04) Aggregate revenue generation from financial investments: NOK 137 million (NOK 108 million) o A very good result for SpareBank 1 Gruppen AS. The Bank s share of the company s result amounts to NOK 170 million (NOK 110 million). o Unrealised losses on the Bank s shareholding in Hurtigruten ASA total NOK 51 million. o Unrealised losses on interest-bearing securities total NOK 36 million. Core banking operations doing very well Overall cost ratio: 52.1 per cent (53.0%) Low losses on loans: Net losses of NOK 9 million (a gain of NOK 11 million Lending growth during the last 12 months (including loans transferred to SpareBank 1 Boligkreditt): 11.4 per cent (10.6%) The accounts show 7.3 per cent lending growth during the last 12 months. Deposit growth during the last 12 months: 9.0 per cent (7.2%) Deposit coverage ratio: 61.9 per cent (60.9%) SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge s pre-tax operating result for the first 9 months of 2007 totalled NOK 643 million profit, up by NOK 42 million on the corresponding interim period last year. We are very pleased with the result, which shows that we have been able to make the most of one of the best general economic growth periods that Norway has ever experienced, says Hans Olav Karde, Chief Executive Officer of SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge. SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge s results reflect that activity levels within the Bank s region remain high. Deposits were up by 9 per cent during the last 12 months, lending by 11.4 per cent. The results which are now presented show a general growth in revenue generation from all our market areas. It is just not our traditional banking operations which are doing well but also the sale of products such as insurance and various types of savings products, explains Karde. The accounts are affected by unrealised losses within the securities market. This involves write-down of the Bank s shares in Hurtigruten ASA and the bond portfolio, the latter due to the turbulence in international financial markets, continues Karde.

The financial turbulence has also made it more expensive to raise funding loans abroad. This has also had an impact on SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge We have shown strength and competitiveness within all the Bank s market areas, concludes Karde. SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge continues to receive a good contribution to its overall profits from SpareBank 1 Gruppen AS, owned by the Bank and the other member banks in the SpareBank 1 alliance. The Bank s share of SpareBank 1 Gruppen s result for the first 9 months amounted to NOK 170 million, up by NOK 60 million on the corresponding interim period last year. The main Board of Directors is very pleased with the result for the first 9 months of 2007. Every effort will continue to be made in order to further boost the Group s revenue generation and to achieve more cost-effective operations. More details relating to the Group s operations can be found in the attached reports. Any questions in this connection should be directed to Hans Olav Karde, Chief Executive Officer, telephone number: 77 62 24 01, or Oddmund Aasen, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, telephone number: 77 62 20 94. We would also refer to the Bank s home page: www.snn.co Some brief background information on SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge is a leading provider of financial products and services to the retail banking- and corporate markets and to the public sector in the region.

Tromso, 24 October 2007 For and on behalf of SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge Kjell Kolbeinsen Director, Information and Public Relations

SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge 3 rd quarter report and accounts 2007 The Group Main features (amounts and percentages in brackets refer to same period in 2006): A very good result o Pre-tax operating result totalled NOK 643 million (NOK 601 million). o After-tax return on equity capital amounted to 17.9 per cent (15.9%). o Earnings per Primary Capital Certificate (PCC) at 3 rd quarter NOK 7.13 (NOK 7.04). Aggregate revenue generation from financial investments amounted to NOK 137 million (NOK 108 millon). o A very good result for SpareBank 1 Gruppen AS, the Bank s share of which amounted to NOK 170 million (NOK 110 million). o Urealised losses on the Bank s shareholding in Hurtigruten ASA total NOK 51 million. o Urealised losses on interest-bearing portfolio total NOK 36 million. Core banking operations did very well. The overall cost ratio ended up at 52.1 per cent (53.0%). Low losses on loans: Net losses of NOK 9 million (a NOK 11 million income at the end of the third quarter of 2006). Lending growth during the last 12 months (including loans transferred to SpareBank 1 Boligkreditt): 11.4% (10.6%). The accounts show 7.3 per cent lending growth for the last 12 months. Deposit growth during the last 12 months amounted to 9.0 per cent (7.2%). Overall deposit coverage ratio: 61.9 per cent (60.9%). Introductory comments Group quarterly accounts have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), including IAS 34 relating to interim reporting. The Parent Bank s quarterly accounts have also been prepared in accordance with IFRS, following the decision to allow banks to report their company accounts too according to IFRS with effect from the first quarter of 2007. Figures for the third quarter of 2006 have been restated in relation to previously reported figures in order for the information to be comparable. In the same way, figures from the cash flow statement, notes to the accounts and key financial analysis have been restated for the third quarter of 2006. The transition to IFRS in the Parent Bank s accounts involves the use of different principles for the inclusion of subsidiaries and joint venture operations in the two accounts. In IFRS-related Group accounts, the equity method of accounting is applied, results from the joint venture operations being incorporated in the Group s profit and loss account according to the equity stakes in question, and allowing for the value of the equity stakes stated in the Balance Sheet. Subsidiaries results are consolidated into the Group accounts. In accordance with IFRS only the cost method of accounting is to be used in company accounts. This means that the book values of subsidiaries and joint venture operations in the Parent Bank s Balance Sheet are based on historic cost. In the Parent Bank s Profit and Loss Account, only the annual dividend payments received from these companies are shown. The effects of the transition to IFRS in the Parent Bank s accounts are shown in direct relation to the equity capital as at 01.01.2007. Results The Sparebanken Nord-Norge Group s pre-tax operating result amounted to NOK 643 million for the first 9 months of 2007. This is equivalent to 1.5 per cent of average assets. The corresponding figures for the same interim period last year were NOK 601 million and 1.6 per cent respectively. The after-tax return on equity capital for the Group as a whole finished up at 17.9 per cent, with Parent Bank earnings per PCC amounting to NOK 7.13. The taxation cost has been estimated at NOK 145 million. In comparison with the end of the third quarter of 2006, the NOK 42 million improvement in the pre-tax result is primarily ascribable to the following factors: Increase in net interest income Increase in net commission income Increase in revenue generation from financial investments Reduction in other (non-interest) income Increase in costs Increase in net losses NOK 67 million NOK 23 million NOK 29 million - NOK 12 million - NOK 45 million - NOK 20 million

Net interest income and average interest margin Group net interest income for the first 9 months of 2007 was up NOK 67 million on the same interim period last year. In relation to average assets, this amounted to 2.06 per cent, after a shrinkage of 0.10 percentage points during the last 12 months. This is due to a continued situation of strong competition within the Bank s market area, coupled with a positive development in the level of credit risk in the market. It should however be mentioned that the net interest margin as a percentage of average assets has increased somewhat during 2007. Net income from banking services Net commission income totalled NOK 293 million for the first 9 months of 2007, up from NOK 270 million for the corresponding interim period in 2006. Income from financial investments The net result from financial investments totalled NOK 137 million at the end of the third quarter of 2007, as against NOK 108 million for the same interim period last year. The income is made up as follows: Dividends from shares NOK 11 million Bank s share of SpareBank 1 Gruppen s result NOK 170 million Bank s share of SpareBank 1 Boligkreditt NOK 1 million Net losses on securities - NOK 72 million Net gains from foreign exchange and financial derivatives NOK 27 million Of the net losses of NOK 72 million on securities, an amount of NOK 51 million is accounted for by unrealised losses on the Bank s shareholding in the Hurtigruten ASA. In addition, unrealised losses of NOK 36 million on the Bank s portfolio of interest-bearing securities have been charged to the profit and loss account. The latter is mainly due to changes in the assessed market value of the interestbearing portfolio as a result of the turbulence in the credit markets during the third quarter of 2007. Operating costs At the end of the third quarter of 2007, ordinary operating costs totalled NOK 709 million, up by NOK 45 million on the same interim period in 2006. In relation to average assets, this amounted to 1.7 per cent, after a shrinkage of 0.1 percentage points compared with the same interim period last year. At the end of the third quarter of 2007, the overall cost ratio for the Group as a whole amounted to 52.1 per cent, down from 53.0 per cent at the same time in 2006. As at 30.09.2007, Group manning levels were equivalent to 804 man-years, of which the Parent Bank accounted for 721. Net credit losses and commitments in default At the end of the third quarter of 2007, net loan losses for the Group as a whole amounted to NOK 9 million. The corresponding figure at the same time in 2006 was a net gain of NOK 11 million. The increase in credit losses shown in the accounts is ascribable to a higher level of confirmed losses. Individual and collective write-downs were reduced in comparison with the second quarter of 2007. At the end of the quarter currently under review, net commitments in default and bad and doubtful commitments amounted to NOK 406 million, equivalent to 0.83 per cent of gross lending, after a reduction of NOK 158 million since the beginning of the year. Efforts to reduce the level of commitments in default as well as bad and doubtful commitments are proceeding well. In the Board of Directors opinion, the quality of the Bank s lending portfolio remains good. Tax The Group s tax cost has been estimated at NOK 145 million as at 30.09.2007. This amounts to 22.6 per cent of the Group s result before tax. In the Parent Bank s accounts, the basis for tax has been reduced by permanent differences, coupled with effects of the exemption model. Estimated wealth tax has to be added to the above figure. Total assets At the end of the third quarter of 2007, Group aggregate assets stood at NOK 59,567 million. During the last 12 months, the balance sheet expanded by NOK 7,010 million or 13.3 per cent. Loans Group gross lending to customers totalled NOK 48,958 million at the end of the second quarter of 2007. Compared to the same interim period in 2006, this involved an increase of 7.3 per cent. Retail banking loans expanded by 6.2 per cent, the corporate- and public sectors by 9.2 per cent. At the end of the quarter, house mortgage loans amounting to NOK 1,871 million had been transferred to SpareBank 1 Boligkreditt AS. Lending growth including these loans was 11.4 per cent. The share of total loans made to retail banking customers was a little higher than 12 months ago, accounting for 64.7 per cent of aggregate lending at the end of the third quarter of 2007. The main Board of Directors would still like to see increased lending growth. It should be pointed out in this connection that in the case of all new loans, particular

importance is attached to customers ability to service their outstanding commitments, and to a satisfactory level of collateral assets and/or other security provided, in order to keep the overall credit risk at an acceptable level. Deposits from customers, savings and placements For the Group as a whole, deposits from customers amounted to NOK 30,298 million as at 30.09.2007. During the last 12 months, deposits rose by NOK 2,504 million or 9.0 per cent. Deposits from the retail banking area increased by 8.7 per cent, the corporate- and public sectors by 16.7 per cent. Basel II New capital adequacy rules and regulations (Basel II EU s new directive for capital adequacy) were introduced in Norway with effect from 1 January 2007. The new set of rules and regulations is based on a proposal for a new standard for capital adequacy calculations from Bank for International Settlements (BIS). SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge has applied to and received permission from The Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway to use internal measuring methods (Internal Rating Based Approach Foundation) for credit risk from 1 January 2007. From 2007, therefore, the statutory minimum requirement for capital adequacy relating to credit risk will be based on the Bank s internal risk assessment. This will make the statutory minimum requirement for capital adequacy more risk-sensitive, which means that the capital requirement will to a larger extent correspond to the risk contained in the underlying portfolios. The use of internal measuring methods involves comprehensive demands as far as the Bank s organisation, competence, risk models and risk management systems are concerned. As a result of transitional rules relating to the new directive mentioned above, IRB-banks will still not experience the full impact of the reduced regulatory capital requirements until 2010. Equity capital and capital adequacy As at 30.09.2007, the capital adequacy ratio was 9.22 per cent (9.33 per cent) of the statutory weighted asset calculation basis. The calculations in 2007 have been made in accordance with the transitional rules and regulations introduced by The Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway. The core capital coverage ratio was 8.04 per cent (8.30 per cent) at the end of the quarter. At the end of the third quarter of 2007, the Parent Bank s capital adequacy ratio amounted to 9.46 per cent (10.02 %), the core capital ratio 8.15 per cent (8.78 %). The shrinkage in the Parent Bank s capital adequacy ratio since the beginning of the year is attributable to IFR-effects having been shown direct in relation to the equity capital. Changes in the Bank s equity capital are apparent from the quarterly accounts. If 50 per cent of the result so far this year were to be factored into the computations, the Parent Bank s and Group s capital adequacy ratios at the end of the third quarter of 2007 would have been 9.97 per cent and 9.90 per cent respectively. The Bank s PCC-holders The Bank has a NOK 841 million PCC-capital, made up of 16,813,952 certificates. As at 30.6.2007, the Bank had 8,369 PCC-holders, involving an increase of 417 investors during the last 12 months. The number of PCC-holders from Nord-Norge was 2,089 at the end of the quarter. Notes to the Interim Accounts include a list of the Bank s 20 largest PCC-holders. Concluding remarks The main Board of Directors is very pleased with the result for the third quarter of 2007. Efforts will continue to be made in order to increase overall Group revenue generation further and to make operations more cost-effective. Every effort will be made to achieve this through increased riskfree revenue generation, through the sale of other products and services and higher growth within the lending area, coupled with good quality and cost control.

Notes Accounting Principles The Group's quarterly accounts have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), including IAS 34 relating to interim reporting. In its resolution dated 30.03.2007, the Minstry of Finance gave its permission for the use of IFRS in Parent Bankaccounts involving interim reporting with effect from the second quarter of 2007. Furthermore, banks have been given the option of applying IFRS to Parent Bank accounts from the first quarter of 2007. The Bank has chosen to apply IFRS to the Parent Bank's accounts from the first quarter of 2007. The figures for the third quarter of 2006 and at 31.12.06 for the profit and loss account, balance sheet, Notes to the accounts and financial highlights have been restated in relation to earlier reports in order to be able to compare the figures with those for the third quarter of 2007. The taxation cost for the quarter has been based on an estimated, average, annual effective tax rate in accordance with the annual assessment of tax. Side 10 av 18

Parent Bank Group (Amounts in NOK million) 31.12.06 30.09.06 30.09.07 30.09.07 30.09.06 31.12.06 Capital Adequacy New capital adequacy rules and regulations (Basel II EU s new directives for capital adequacy) were implemented in Norway with effect from 1 January 2007. The new rules and regulations are based on Bank for International Settlements (BIS) proposal for a new standard for capitaladequacy calculations. SpareBank 1 Nord-Norge has applied to and received permission from Kredittilsynet (The Financial Supervisory Authorityof Norway) (FSAN) to apply internal calculation methods (Internal Rating-Based Approach) for credit risk from 1 January 2007. With effect from 2007, therefore, the statutory minimum capital adequacy requirement for credit risk will be based on the Bank s internal assessment of risk. This will make the statutory minimum capital adequacy requirement more risk-sensitive, which means that the capital requirement will to a larger extent correspond to the risk contained in the underlying portfolios in question.

The primary format of reporting takes as a starting point risk and yield profiles of various assets and reporting is divided into private customers (Retail Banking Market), business customers (Corporate and Public Market) and leasing.
