20 May 2025:  Metro Bank  Holdings PLC (the  “Company”) announces  that, at  the
Annual General Meeting of shareholders held  earlier today, Resolutions 1 to  19

As stated  in the  Company's AGM  Notice and  under UK  Listing Rule  6.2.8R,  a
resolution to elect or re-elect an Independent Director must be passed by both a
majority of the  independent shareholders (excluding  the Company's  controlling
shareholder) and a  majority of all  shareholders. In order  to determine  this,
votes cast by the independent shareholders were counted separately in respect of
the re-election of the  Independent Directors and the  results of that  separate
count are set out below.
