RNS Number:0250S Abbey National PLC 26 February 2002 First National agrees to acquire commercial mortgage business from Sun Bank First National Commercial Banking, the commercial mortgage arm of Abbey National, has agreed to buy the commercial mortgage book of Sun Bank. As at 31 December 2001, the value of the net assets corresponding to the commercial mortgage book being acquired was £133.5m. Sun Bank is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Portman Building Society. First National is acquiring the commercial mortgage book only and the administration will transfer from Portman Building Society to First National in Harrow. The residential mortgage and loan book will remain with Sun Bank. Sun Bank commercial mortgage customers will be advised of the change of ownership over the next few weeks. The transfer to First National will not affect the terms and conditions of their mortgages. Jeff Watson, Director of First National Commercial Banking said: "We are delighted with this deal as it complements our existing business mortgage book in terms of both customer profile and asset quality. We are already one of the leading players in commercial mortgages and this acquisition confirms our commitment to the market." Peter Lucas, Chief Executive, Sun Bank said: "When Portman Building Society acquired Sun Bank last year, they indicated that commercial lending did not fit with their ambitions for the business. This agreement with First National means that we can continue to focus on the growth of our residential lending business." The sale is expected to be completed on 1 March 2002. -ends- For further information, contact: Daniel Schraibman, Abbey National Media Relations Tel: 020 7612 3199 daniel.schraibman@abbeynational.co.uk Rob Askham, Abbey National Investor Relations Tel: 020 7612 4151 rob.askham@abbeynational.co.uk About First National Commercial Banking First National Commercial Banking is part of the Business Banking and Finance division of the Abbey National Group.
