PUBLICATION OF
NOTICE OF GENERAL MEETING
The Company has announced that it
has today published a Notice of General Meeting. The purpose of the
General Meeting is to consider, and if thought fit, approve the
allotment of, and the disapplication of pre-emption rights in
connection with, Company shares related to any potential future
regulatory capital raise (including the issuance of contingent
convertible securities but not ordinary shares in the Company
(common equity)).
The Company continues to consider
its opportunities to optimise the capital structure in order to
drive growth momentum in delivering its strategy and, accordingly,
anticipates that it may wish to access the capital markets at some
point and continues to assess a range of options (including the
issuance of contingent convertible securities but not ordinary
shares in the Company (common equity)). While no decision has been
made on whether to proceed with any of these options, in order to
ensure that the Company is ready and able to access the capital
markets if and when it deems it appropriate to do so, the Company
considers that it is prudent to obtain appropriate corporate
authorities.
The Company has consulted with
shareholders in advance on the resolutions.
The General Meeting will be held at
First Floor, One Southampton Row, London WC1B 5HA on 18 March 2025 at
09:00am.
The Notice of General Meeting
to be held on 18 March 2025 is available to view in the Investor
Relations section of the Company’s website at
www.metrobankonline.co.uk.
Hard copies will be
mailed in due course to those shareholders who have elected to
receive them. In compliance with 6.4.1 of the Listing Rules, the
Notice of General Meeting is also being submitted to the National
Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection
at https://data.fca.org.uk/#nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
