insurance provider in Denmark. The acquisition is subject to amendments in NEM's
articles of association and approvals from the Danish Financial Supervisory
Authority and The Danish Competition and Consumer Authority. The acquisition is

growth in Denmark. NEM's customer portfolio, partners and insurance products
make a good strategic fit for Gjensidige.

Denmark, both directly and through partners. NEM has attractive partnership
agreements with savings banks, real estate agents and a trade union, offering
growth potential for Gjensidige in Denmark. NEM's reported gross written premium
