Re: Disclosure of Interest in Topdanmark AS

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please find attached a Standard Form 1 filed on behalf of Capital Research and Management Company ("CRMC"). CRMC is a U.S.-based investment adviser that manages the American Funds family of mutual funds. CRMC does not own shares of the companies it invests in for its own account. Rather, the shares reported in this disclosure are owned by mutual funds under the discretionary investment management of CRMC. CRMC is filing solely with respect to shares over which it exercises voting rights.

For the purpose of this Notice, an outstanding share balance of 15,666,550 shares was used to calculate the percentage of holdings. We believe this figure is correct; however, if this number is not accurate, please contact us as soon as possible so we may make the necessary revisions.

Should you have further questions or require additional information, please contact us at (213) 615-0469, or by facsimile at (213) 486-9698. Alternatively, you may contact us via e-mail at [email protected].

Sincerely,

Christopher Aquino Compliance Associate

11) Further information:

Pursuant to letter of application of 7 February 2008 from The Capital Group Companies, Inc. ("CGC") to the Danish FSA regarding the exemption requirements for parent companies under Executive Order 1225 section 12 and 14, CGC will no longer report interest in securities in Denmark on its own behalf. Instead voting interest and ownership in shares will be reported separately by Capital Research and Management Company ("CRMC"), Capital Group International, Inc. ("CGII") or the mutual funds and clients themselves, as appropriate.

CRMC is an investment adviser based in the United States and a 100% owned subsidiary of CGC. Neither CGC nor CRMC owns shares of Danish issuers on their own behalf. Rather the shares reported in this notification are owned by mutual funds under the discretionary investment management of CRMC. Certain mutual funds managed by CRMC have delegated the right to vote the proxies of their portfolio securities to CRMC. CRMC herby submits this report to reflect the shares over which CRMC has voting discretion.

Should a fund managed by CRMC vote proxies of its portfolio securities itself, the fund will submit a separate filing as appropriate.
