Under the terms of the Moratorium on creditor proceedings granted to Glitnir hf. ("Glitnir") on 24 November 2008 by the District Court of Reykjavik, the Moratorium Appointee of Glitnir presented the assets and liabilities of Glitnir, together with an estimate of the value of the assets and a computation of the liabilities as at 31 December 2008.

The Moratorium Appointee and Resolution Committee of Glitnir hf. ("Glitnir") have announced that they will be holding a creditors' meeting at 9am on 22 September 2009 at Hilton Reykjavík Nordica hotel, Reykjavik, Iceland.

Kristján Óskarsson has been hired as CEO of Glitnir bank. Óskarsson had formerly renounced his position as a member of the bank's Resolution Committee after the FME (FSA in Iceland) requested that members, who formerly held management positions within the three banks at the time of their collapse, should resign from the Resolution Committees to avoid potential conflict of interest.

Press release from Islandsbanki
Agreement has been reached on Íslandsbanki's capital structure. Under the agreement, Glitnir banki hf. has the right to subscribe for a majority shareholding in Íslandsbanki. This is the outcome of negotiations between the government and representatives of Glitnir's creditors. This implies that Íslandsbanki might soon be fully owned by foreign parties. According to the agreement the Icelandic government will provide the Bank with new equity to begin with which the creditors will have an option to acquire before 30 September given certain conditions. Government will as well support the capital of Islandsbanki with a subordinated loan to strengthen the bank's capital ratio and liquidity.

Sjóvá's financial restructuring is now complete. A new company with the name Sjóvá will be established to take over only the insurance activities of the former company. This means that investment activities involving real estate have been separated from Sjóvá's traditional insurance activities.

Kristján Davíðsson the CEO of Glitnir hf. has requested to leave Glitnir hf. due to assignments outside of Iceland. The Resolution Committee has agreed and wishes him all the best in the future. Kristjan will assist the RC in the coming months on certain assignments. Ingolfur Hauksson, our CFO, will take the CEO post until further decided.

Glitnir banki hf., Reg. No. 550500-3530, legally domiciled at Kirkjusandur 2, 105 Reykjavík, Iceland, but currently located at Sóltún 26, 105 Reykjavík has been granted a moratorium pursuant to a ruling of the Reykjavik District Court until 13 November 2009. On 12 May 2009, the Reykjavík District Court appointed a Winding-Up Board for the bank, which will handle, for instance, claims against the bank while the moratorium is in effect and after winding-up proceedings commence upon the conclusion of the moratorium.

Over the past few months, Glitnir's Resolution Committee, the Sjóvá Board of Directors, and Íslandsbanki's Corporate Finance have been working on the restructuring of Sjóvá. The work is expected to be completed in the next few days. The goal of the restructuring is to ensure the best interests of Sjóvá's customers, and to maximise the company value.
