(each a Series and together, the Notes)


Swedbank Mortgage AB (publ) (the Company) is inviting holders of each Series of
Notes (together, the Noteholders) to approve, by separate extraordinary
resolutions (the Extraordinary Resolutions) pursuant to the terms and conditions
of such Notes (the Conditions) and the Agency Agreements (as defined below)
relating to such Notes,, the insertion of a new condition into the Conditions
(the New Condition) such that the Company may, upon giving notice to the
Noteholders in accordance with the New Condition, modify the Conditions to
conform the Conditions to the terms and conditions of the Company's covered
bonds (the S.O. Bonds and S.O. Bond Conditions respectively) but without
changing the economic terms of such Notes, on the terms described in this
Consent Solicitation Memorandum (the Proposals).

Full details of the Proposals are set out in a Consent Solicitation Memorandum
to be dated 20 November 2007 (the Consent Solicitation Memorandum).

Background to the Proposals

On 14 September 2007, the Company received approval from Finansinspektionen (the
Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority) to issue covered bonds in accordance
with The Swedish Act (2003:1223) on Issuance of Covered Bonds (lagen (2003:1223)
om utgivning av sakerstallda obligationer) (the S.O. Act).  The Company plans to
issue its first covered bond in the second quarter of 2008, and to convert its
then outstanding long term unsubordinated debt instruments into covered bonds. 
The Company is making the Proposals in order to be able to convert the Notes
into covered bonds in the same way, at the same time and on the same conditions
as other outstanding debt instruments.

At the date hereof, the unsecured, unsubordinated debt of the Company is rated
Aa1 by Moody's Investor Services. Based on this, and given the quality of the
Company's credit portfolio, its financial risk profile, the features of the
Swedish covered bond legislation and credit ratings assigned to covered bonds
issued by other Swedish issuers, the Company believes (although it cannot and
will not make any representation or undertaking in this respect) that any
covered bonds issued by it will be rated Aaa or AAA, as the case may be, by at
least one rating agency.

The Consent Solicitation Memorandum is available from the Tabulation Agent or

Meetings of Noteholders to consider and if thought fit, to pass an Extraordinary
Resolution in respect of each series of Notes, has been convened by the Company
