25,391,697 to nom. DKK 24,283,550 by cancellation of 1,108,147 nom. DKK 1 shares from the
bank’s holding of its own shares of a nominal value of DKK 1,108,147.

Please note that, in accordance with section 188(1) of the Danish Companies Act, the purpose of
the reduction in the bank’s share capital is payment to shareholders. The amount of the reduction
has been used as payment to shareholders for shares acquired by the bank under the
authorisation previously granted to the board of directors by the general meeting.

The share capital will consequently be reduced by nom. DKK 1,108,147 and the bank’s holding of
its own shares will be reduced by 1,108,147 nom. DKK 1 shares. Please note that, in accordance
with section 188(2) of the Danish Companies Act, the shares in question were acquired for a total

1,498,876,019 has been paid to shareholders.

The purpose of the board of directors’ proposed reduction of the share capital is to maintain
flexibility in the bank’s capital structure.

If the proposal is adopted, the following changes will be made to articles 2, 2a, 2b and 2c of the
articles of association:
Art. 2: The amount of “25,391,697” will be changed to “24,283,550”
