New York, NY — December 20, 2000 — Dime Bancorp, Inc. (NYSE: DME) today announced that its Litigation Tracking Warrants™ (LTW™s) will begin trading on the Nasdaq National Market on December 26, 2000 on a “when-issued” basis under the trading symbol DIMZV through December 29, 2000. Commencing January 2, 2001, the LTWs will be traded “regular-way” under the trading symbol DIMEZ.
