2. The Bank’s share capital will increase by up to €42,000,000 through the issue of up to 15,272,727 new shares, of nominal value € 2.75 each offered at a price equal to a 3% discount on the average closing share price of the first four working days that the shares trade ex-dividend. The share capital will increase through the reinvestment of final dividend for the year 2007, to the extent that the shareholders decide, at their sole discretion and within the period from 22.04.2008 to 8.05.2008, to receive either all or part of their dividend in a whole number of shares of the Bank, instead of cash. All new shares will be registered ordinary voting shares in electronic form and will be entitled to dividends paid in future. Any balance of the dividend left after each shareholder’s reinvestment in shares will be paid to the shareholder in cash. Article 5 of the Articles of Association of the Bank will be amended accordingly, to show the above-mentioned increase of the Bank’s share capital and the number of shares. If only a part of the above mentioned share capital increase is met by the reinvestment of the dividend, the Board of Directors will adjust, at the time it certifies the deposit of funds, Article 5 of the Articles of Association to show the precise amount of share capital covered.
