Announcement from the Winding-up Board of Glitnir hf. regarding extension of deadline for submitting creditor questionnaire

On 30 July 2012, the Winding-up Board (the “Winding-up Board”) of Glitnir hf. (“Glitnir”) announced that Glitnir had released a questionnaire for all registered claim holders with general claims (i.e. unsecured claims), disputed priority claims and/or disputed secured claims to complete.

At the informal creditors’ meeting on 2 July 2012, the Winding-up Board presented the proposed terms of a potential composition which would involve a proposal to Glitnir’s unsecured creditors to release their existing claims in return for cash or cash, debt securities and equity securities. Further details are available in the secure area of the website (http://glitnirbank.com/).

The purpose of the questionnaire is to enable Glitnir to determine whether or not it is permitted, by the securities laws of the jurisdictions in which the creditors are based, to offer securities to creditors as part of the composition proposal. Accordingly, the questionnaire does not constitute an offer of securities or a solicitation of an offer to buy securities, and it does not constitute any recommendation by Glitnir or its Winding-up Board. You should be aware that it is Glitnir’s intention that any offer and sale of securities in the United States of America is made on the basis of available exemptions from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933.

The deadline for submitting the questionnaire has been extended to 7 September 2012 . If you require assistance to access the online version of the questionnaire, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
