to
approve agreements relating to the company's financial restructuring




The shareholders' meeting of Hf. Eimskipafélag Íslands, held on 8 September
2009, confirms the Board's authorisation to assign all the company's assets
relating to vessel operation to Eimskip Ísland ehf. and, in so doing, increase

Ísland ehf. Furthermore, the meeting confirms the Board's authorisation to
assign the above shares in Eimskip Ísland ehf., together with all other assets

Memorandum:

The above proposal is put forward as a part of the company's financial
restructuring following the approval of the company's composition agreement
which was confirmed on 28 August 2009 by the District Court of Reykjavík.
Agreements reached in connection with the company's composition bill assume
that the company's vessel operations will be transferred to a new company, i.e.
L1003 ehf. (which will later receive the name Eimskipafélag Íslands ehf.). 

According to the composition agreement, creditors will receive shares in L1003
ehf. in payment for their claims on the company. 

The arrangements discussed here are explained in greater detail in a report to
the creditors which was attached to the company's composition agreement. This
proposal confirms the Board's authorisation to finalise the agreements set
forth in the company's composition agreement.
