Upon expiry of the offer period on 8 December 2009 at 4 pm, the bank has
received subscriptions for the offered amounts of subordinated notes of a total
of DKK 100 million. 

The result of the subordinated note subscription and the bank's partial usage
of the Bank Guarantee Scheme II of DKK 65 million strengthen the bank's capital
base with a total of DKK 165 million and thus exceed the bank's maximum loan
opportunity under the Bank Guarantee Scheme II which amounted to DKK 117
million. 

The subscription is distributed on more than 600 individuals and companies
predominantly from the south-west of Jutland in Denmark. No single subscription
exceeds 5 % of the subscribed amount. 

The bank's management expresses great satisfaction with the solid support for
the bank and finds that the bank's capital base - determined on the basis of
the latest financial statements published on 30 September 2009 - is solid with
a solvency ratio of 17 % and a core capital of 12,4 %. 

The issue shall be settled on the value date of 14 December 2009.

The subordinated notes shall be registered at Nasdaq OMX Copenhagen A/S as of
14 December 2009. 

Should the above give rise to any questions, please contact Director Per Munck.
