Adjustment of OMX Copenhagen Benchmark Gross Index due to dividend in Nordea Bank AB


The new ordinary shares issued in Nordea Bank AB:s rights issue, ex-day March
13, 2009, do not entitle to the dividend of EUR 0.20 proposed to the Annual
General Meeting (AGM) which will be held April 2, 2009. In accordance to rule
5.3 in the “Rules for the Construction and Maintenance of the NOREX Exchanges'
Tradable, All-Share, Sector and Benchmark Indexes” these new shares are already
added to the OMX Copenhagen Benchmark Gross index (OMXCBGI). 

Provided that the AGM accept the dividend proposal the OMXCBGI will be adjusted
to compensate for the difference in dividend payment, where only 20 out of 31
shares in Nordea Bank AB (NDA DKK, SE0000427361) are entitled to dividend
payment. The dividend adjustment per Nordea share in the OMXCBGI will be
(20/31) * EUR 0.20, which equals EUR 0.129 per share. The dividend will be
converted from EUR to DKK after closing on April 2, 2009 using the 16.00 GMT
rate provided by WM Company. 

This adjustment is made in accordance with the “Rules for the Construction and
Maintenance of the NOREX Exchanges' Tradable, All-Share, Sector and Benchmark
Indexes” rule 5.1. For more information regarding Nordea Bank AB:s rights issue
please see earlier Index Notices.
