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.
