The political agreement of 5 October 2008 will secure a 2-year guarantee from   
the Danish Government for all deposits and unsecured claims against losses in   
Danish financial institutions. The bill was put before Parliament on 8 October  
2008 and will be read by Parliament on 10 October 2008.                         

BRFbank joins the guarantee scheme which, according to the proposal, will run   
for two years as from 5 October 2008. The scheme may be prolonged if required to
maintain financial stability in Denmark.                                        

The guarantee scheme is operated by Det Private Beredskab (The Danish banking   
sector's contingency association).
