4 Market value adjustment
Den Danske Bank Group continuously evaluates the hedging of the interest rate
risk on the Group's portfolio of fixed rate assets and liabilities. The
portfolio of assets and the liabilities are hedged in full or in part by means
of derivative financial instruments so that for each currency, the interest
rate risk on the hedged portfolio of assets and the liabilities corresponds
to the interest rate risk, for each currency, on the derivative financial
instruments employed for hedging them.
Under Danish accounting regulations, part of the Group's fixed rate assets
(loans and advances as well as unlisted securities),may not be revalued in the
Accounts to a market value in excess of cost. For some of those assets, the
interest rate risk has been hedged by derivative financial instruments. Under
Danish accounting regulations, value adjustment of the derivative financial
instruments employed for hedging these assets is not allowed. Therefore, the
Group did not at the end of June 1998 expense DKr959m market value adjustment of
these derivative financial instruments, corresponding to the income which market
value adjustment of the assets hedged would have generated. At the end of June
1997, the corresponding amount was DKr 1,098m.
The interest rate risk on the Group's fixed rate liabilities, which, under
Danish accounting regulations, are not value adjusted, is hedged by derivative
financial instruments in respect of long-term liabilities.
The Group is not allowed to make adjustment of these derivative financial
instruments employed for hedging purposes. Therefore, the Group did not at the
end of June 1998 carry to income DKr 1,179m market value adjustment of these
derivative financial instruments, corresponding to the expense which market
value adjustment of the liabilities hedged would have generated. At the end of
June 1997, the corresponding amount was DKr942m.

Danske Kredit's fixed rate loans are covered through the issue of mortgage
credit bonds, which are not value adjusted. In accordance with a ruling given
by the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority, fixed rate mortgage credit loans
are not value adjusted either. Therefore, the fixed rate assets and liabilities
listed above do not include fixed rate mortgage credit loans and mortgage credit
bonds issued.

5 Contingent utilities
Legal proceedings have been initiated against the Bank as a result of the
so-called tax stripping cases raised against certain customers of the Bank
Moreover, some investors who subscribed for shares when Hafnia Holding A/S
carried out a share issue in July 1992 or who bought shares in the summer of
1992 have brought actions for damages against the Bank, among others, totalling
DKr120m. The Bank has signed declarations lifting, for the future, the time-bar
applicable to claims in respect of the Hafnia issue for an additional amount of
DKr23m.
Proceedings have been instituted against Den Danske Bank in 'the Faroese banking
affair" with claims for compensation of approximately DKrl.5bn.
The outcome of the cases pending is not expected to have a material effect on
the financial position of Den Danske Bank Group.
The Group's pension commitments are covered by payments made to insurance
companies, pension funds, etc. In a few cases, however, the Group may,
following an actuarial calculation, be ordered to make further payments.
Certain foreign pension commitments are not covered but provisions are made on
the basis of an actuarial calculation.
The Bank is registered jointly with all its significant Danish subsidiaries in
relation to financial services employer tax and VAT for which it is jointly
and severally liable.
