Teymi hf. to request de-listing of shares


The Board of Directors of Teymi hf. has decided to propose to the company‘s
shareholders the de-listing of the company‘s shares from the OMX Nordic
Exchange in Iceland. The shareholders will vote on the proposal at a
shareholders meeting to be convened shortly. 

It is the opinion of the Board of Directors of Teymi that listing of the
company‘s shares does not benefit the shareholders interests under the current
circumstances in the market. 

The Board of Directors of Teymi decided in a board meeting on Wednesday 30 July
2008 to convene a shareholder's meeting and put forward a resolution giving it
the mandate to request the de-listing of the shares of the company from the OMX
Nordic Exchange in Iceland. 

Upon approval of the aforementioned resolution the Board will offer to buy
shares in Teymi in exchange for shares in Alfesca hf; a company listed on the
OMX Nordic Exchange in Iceland. Shareholders representing approx. 80% of
Teymi's share capital have announced that they will abstain from such a sale
and remain shareholders in the company. 

The share price in Teymi according to the offer will be 1,90 ISK per share
which is 25% above market value as recorded on Wednesday 30 July 2008. The
share price in Alfesca will be 6,96 ISK per share which is the final price
recorded on Wednesday 30 July 2008. Thus the exchange rate is 0.273. 

Teymi has entered into an agreement regarding the purchase of the shares in
Alfesca hf. which is subject to the approval of the shareholders‘ meeting of
the resolution to de-list the company‘s shares, in order to fulfil the
aforementioned offer. 

Upon approval of the resolution shareholders registered in the company‘s share
register at the end of business the day before the shareholder's meeting
(taking into account the transaction rules of the Icelandic Stock Market (T+3))
may make use of the offer. 


Landsbanki Íslands Corporate Finance is the manager of the de-listing process.
