Árno Oddur Þórðarson, CEO of Eyrir Invest:"We are grateful for the trust from creditors. Our key holdings are in
companies that are well positioned in growth markets. Eyrir has always
emphasised the importance of a clear strategy and long term financing both
regarding Eyrir's own operations and it's key holdings. Marel, Össur and Stork
have 
shown their strength in a demanding economic environment. They have all managed
to drive their cost base to sustainable lower levels, maintained strong cash
flow and their operational outlook is good."

Eyrir Invest's key holdings are a 38% share in Marel Food Systems hf., a 20%
share in Össur hf. and 17% share in the Dutch industrial conglomerate Stork.
Eyrir has been a shareholder in Marel and Össur since 2004 and in Stork since
2006. Eyrir´s key holdings are market leaders in their respective industries.
In recent years they have built up their current strong positions and looking
forward they will reap the rewards from that. Long term financing has been
secured for all of them. Össur and Marel do not have any significant debt
repayments until late 2011 and Stork has stable long term financing.  In the
coming years the companies' strong market position will enable them to deliever
strong cash flow from operations.
