Today, Kommunalkredit Austria AG (KA) was informed by Finanzmarktbeteiligung
Aktiengesellschaft des Bundes (FIMBAG) which is responsible for the handling of
the privatization process of KA on behalf of the Republic of Austria, that the
privatization process was not completed on the basis of existing offers. A value
preserving transaction for shareholders was not possible in the current market
environment. As a result, KA remains in the ownership of the Republic of
Austria.

KA was further informed that the Republic of Austria has applied with the
European Commission (EC) not to appoint a divestiture trustee. Conversely, KA
will not effect any new lending activity. Existing as well as committed lending
transactions as well as ongoing refinancing activity will continue.
