18 december 2008                                                                


Amagerbanken adjusts the expectations for 2008 downwards                        

Core earnings before impairments for 2008 are expected to be in the area of 580 
m DKK compared to earlier informed 480 - 520 m DKK.                             

Impairments and loses on loans for 2008 are expected to be approximately 900 m  
DKK. The increased impairments are a result of the continuous substantial       
downturn in economics and decrease in value of provided securities.             

Core earnings after impairments are expected to be approximately -600 m DKK.    

Hereafter the bank's solvency is expected to amount to approximately 10.8 %.
