Scribona acquires Banque Invik SA

Scribona has today entered into an agreement with Moderna Finans AB to acquire
Banque Invik SA, a leading private bank in Luxembourg.

Banque Invik will maintain its position as an independent Luxembourg-based
private bank focusing on the Nordic markets. The company will remain under the
leadership of its current executive management, headed by Managing Director
Pierre Arens.

The total purchase price for all shares outstanding in Banque Invik SA will be
paid in cash as soon the transaction has been approved by Luxembourg's financial
supervisory authority, Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CCSF),
and the audit of the financial statements for 2008 is completed. The approval
and final audit results are expected to be received in April 2009.

“We are very pleased with the agreement to acquire Banque Invik and look forward
to working with the bank's management to drive and develop these operations.
Banque Invik will continue pursuing its successful strategy as a leading
specialised banking partner in the credit card segment.” "Banque Invik is a clear complement to the Nordic bank-owned banks in
Luxembourg,” says Lorenzo Garcia, CEO of Scribona AB.

The transaction is expected to close within two months and is conditional on
fulfillment of the customary conditions. 

Scribona's legal adviser has been Frank Advokatbyrå.
