Separate Trading of the Addiko Shares Tendered into the Offer

Insofar as Shareholders have submitted to their Custodian Banks written declarations accepting the Offer in respect of their Addiko Shares, the Addiko Shares indicated in such declaration will be re-booked under different ISINs as "Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB" or "Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB Sell-out Period", respectively (see Section 5.3), in the securities account of the accepting Shareholder. Provided that the Conditions Precedent have not been fulfilled at the end of the Additional Acceptance Period, NLB will instruct the Payment and Settlement Agent to request from the Vienna Stock Exchange that Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB (ISIN AT0000A3CYS2) and Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB Sell-out Period (ISIN AT0000A3CYT0) will be separately tradable on the Vienna Stock Exchange from the 4th Trading Day following the end of the Additional Acceptance period until and including the 3rd Trading Day prior to the Settlement of the Offer (which, under certain circumstances, may occur after the end of the Additional Acceptance Period) having been completed.

The acquirer of Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB (ISIN AT0000A3CYS2) and Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB Sell-out Period (ISIN AT0000A3CYT0) assumes all rights and duties arising from the agreements concluded by accepting the Offer with respect to these shares. The Bidder points out that trading volumes and liquidity of Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB (ISIN AT0000A3CYS2) and Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB Sell-out Period (ISIN AT0000A3CYT0) will depend on the specific acceptance rate and therefore may not exist at all or may be low and may be subject to heavy fluctuations. It cannot be ruled out that in the absence of demand it will be impossible to sell the Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB (ISIN AT0000A3CYS2) and Addiko Shares Tendered for Sale to NLB Sell-out Period (ISIN AT0000A3CYT0) on the Vienna Stock Exchange. Any Addiko Shares not tendered for sale will continue to be traded under ISIN AT000ADDIKO0.
