The biggest CSR of Prime Bank is to establish Prime Bank Foundation to execute its corporate social responsibilities activities in a greater scale. Prime Bank Limited and Prime Bank Foundation are proud to continue CSR activities for the greater interest of countrys socio economic development: 01.Investment in Education: a. Education Support Program: Believing education as a tool for social change, Prime Bank Foundation is proud to have another year of success of its Education Support Program launched in 2007.

In 2009 reporting year, 198 underprivileged but meritorious students, the highest in one year since its inception, have been included to provide with financial support in the form of monthly stipends for the persuasion of their graduation/post-graduation level studies in the countrys public sector universities and colleges. With the inclusion of these students, the total number of poor but meritorious students who are the recipients of Prime Bank Foundation stipends stood at 490. b. Prime Campus: Prime Campus, an English medium school in Uttara, Dhaka, was created by Prime Bank Foundation in 2008 as an alternative to the expensive English primary schools at an affordable charge schedule. Our commitment to corporate social responsibility ensures we remain true to our heritage of integrity; maintain a long term point of view to make economically sound, environmentally responsible and socially supportive decisions. More specifically, we maintain an unwavering commitment to honesty, integrity and fairness in all our CSR practices; show compassion by becoming involved with and supporting local and national communities; and consistently act in a manner that fosters our stewardship and sustainability. 02.Work with Handicap Population Investment in eradicating and preventing different disabilities such as drug addicts, blindness etc; setting up vocational training centers; undertake mass awareness raising campaigns etc. 03.Dristy Daan Project Setting a target of sight restoration of 1200 poor/ultra poor citizens of the country, the Prime Bank Foundation started off the Dristy Daan project in 2007.

The bank has extended finance for establishing countrywide health centers and a teachers training college under the supervision and implementation of Diabetes Association of Bangladesh. The bank has also provided financial support to an innovative, non-conventional yet a useful and much needed socio-medical project, popularly known as, "healthline" (accessible by dialing "789" from any mobile phone under Grameen Phone network) by Telemedicine Reference Center Limited (TRCL), the only registered telehealth and electronic health service provider in Bangladesh. The banks finance was made available for upgrading of existing project as well as set up offshore health line call centers for Bangladeshi workers based in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

Balances in the NITA may freely be used to buy Bangladeshi shares/securities. These balances are also freely remittable abroad in equivalent foreign exchange. The NITA can be operated by the account-holder himself or by a nominee, including the AD itself. Dividends/interest earnings on the shares/securities bought through the NITA, net of taxes payable on such earnings of the non-resident holder, received from the issuing company/institution may be credited to the NITA. Sale proceeds of the shares/securities purchased through the NITA may also be credited to the NITA. No local funds from any sources other than those mentioned at (1), (4) and (5) above can be credited to NITA. No loan facilities shall be allowed by the ADs in the Non-resident Investor's Taka Accounts.

3. Bank Credit Rating CREDIT RATING REPORT ON Prime Bank Limited Long Term Surveillance Rating -2010 Outlook Date of Rating Declaration AA+ Stable May 30, 2011 Short Term ST-1

1.0 RATING RATIONALE

CRISL has reaffirmed the long term rating of Prime Bank Limited (hereinafter called PBL) to AA+ (pronounced as double A plus) and Short Term rating to ST-1. The above ratings are based on consolidated financials up to December 31, 2010 and other relevant qualitative and quantitative information up to the date of rating. While assigning the rating CRISL viewed the ongoing fundamentals such as good financial performance and operating efficiency, satisfactory asset quality, good capital base, good market share, diversified business lines, considerable increase of non-funded business, sound IT infrastructure, experienced management team etc. However, the above factors are moderated, to some extent, by high loan growth to deposit, moderate financial performance of exchange house operations, dependence on fixed deposit etc. The long term rating implies that banks rated in this category are adjudged to be of high quality, offer higher safety and have high credit quality. This level of rating indicates a banking entity with a sound credit profile and without significant problems. Risks are modest and may vary slightly from time to time because of economic conditions. Short-term rating indicates highest certainty of timely payment. Shortterm liquidity including internal fund generation is very strong and access to alternative sources of fund is outstanding. Safety is almost like risk free Government short-term obligations. CRISL also foresee no significant change/ volatility in its operation in near future and placed the bank with Stable Outlook for the next one year.
