Press comment in relation to the Co-operative Bank plc bondholders

CLS confirms that it holds an interest in Co-operative Bank plc (the "Bank") bonds amounting to £4.3 million nominal, which it has accumulated over time at an aggregate cost below par.  CLS has written to the Bank expressing a number of concerns about the approach being taken in relation to its provisioning and restructuring. CLS, along with other bondholders, believes that a committee should be established to enable a dialogue amongst all stakeholders before the Bank finalises its restructuring proposal.
