Bids at the cut-off price may be allocated pro-rata. Bids below the cut-off price will not be allocated any bonds.
The auction amount and time schedules can be seen in the pdf file attached. Nordea Kredit is not obliged to sell the full offered auction amount at the auctions.

Investors have the option of receiving new covered mortgage credit bonds allocated at the auction with spot settlement in a reverse facility. This exchange of bonds can be arranged by contacting Peter Brag or Arni Karstin Bjarnason at the day of the auction no later than 2.00 p.m.
The new covered mortgage credit bonds are subject to the provisions on the regulation of the refinancing risk in the Mortgage-Credit-Loans & Mortgage-Credit-Bonds etc. Act (“the Act”). The auction trigger applies to all the new covered mortgage credit bonds. For the covered mortgage credit bonds maturing no later than 1 April 2028 the interest rate trigger applies as well.
The following applies to covered mortgage credit bonds subject to the auction trigger:
In case of a failed auction the provisions of the Act, please cf. above, lay down restrictions on the final sale and allocation of covered mortgage credit bonds.
The following applies to covered mortgage credit bonds subject to the interest rate trigger:
In connection with the refinancing of covered mortgage credit bonds a ceiling for the increase of the effective interest rate applies. According to the Act the effective interest rate cannot increase by more than 5 percentage points. This limit on the rise of the effective interest rate is a condition for the final sale and allocation of new covered mortgage credit bonds subject to the interest rate trigger at the auctions.
According to the Act Nordea Kredit cannot initiate refinancing auctions if we do not have a justified expectation that the auctions can be completed. Hence, Nordea Kredit surveys the market situation right up to the auction times. In case of a change in the market situation, Nordea Kredit may choose to either cancel the auctions or change the auction times and/or the terms of the auctions. Such changes will be communicated via a company announcement.
