ADMISSION CARD METRO BANK PLC

Annual General Meeting on Tuesday 25 April 2017 at 2.00pm

Notes

    1. In order to be valid, this form of proxy and any power of attorney, or notarially certified copy thereof, under which it is executed must be (a) completed, signed and lodged with the Company's registrars, Equiniti, Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex BN99 6DA, United Kingdom or (b) the proxy appointment must be lodged using the CREST Proxy Voting Service in accordance with Note 10 below or (c) by email to [email protected] as soon as possible but, in any event, so as to arrive no later than 2.00 p.m. on 21 April 2017.
    1. The completion and return of a form of proxy will not, however, preclude shareholders from attending and voting in person at the AGM or at any adjournment thereof should they wish to do so.
    1. A proxy need not be a member of the Company but must attend the meeting to represent you. A member may appoint a proxy of his/her own choice in which case the words "the Chairman of the meeting*" above should be deleted and the name of the person appointed as proxy should be inserted in the space provided. If you sign and return this proxy form with no name inserted in the space provided, the Chairman of the AGM will be deemed to be your proxy.
    1. If the proxy is being appointed in relation to less than your full voting entitlement, please enter next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. If left blank your proxy will be deemed to be authorised in respect of your full voting entitlement (or if this proxy form has been issued in respect of a designated account for a shareholder, the full voting entitlement for that designated account).
    1. A member may appoint more than one proxy provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to different shares held by the member.
    1. Please indicate next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which the proxy is authorised to act as your proxy. Please also indicate, by ticking the box provided, if the proxy appointment is one of multiple appointments made. All forms must be signed and should be returned together.
    1. The 'Vote withheld' option is provided to enable you to abstain on any particular resolution. However, it should be noted that a 'Vote withheld' is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes 'For' and 'Against' a resolution.
    1. Where the member is a corporation, this form must be executed under its common seal or signed by any officer, attorney or other person duly authorised by the corporation.
    1. In the case of joint holders, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders. For this purpose, seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the register.
    1. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies by using the CREST electronic appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com/CREST). The message must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by Equiniti (ID RA19) by the latest time for receipt of proxy appointments specified in Note 1 above. See notes 8 to 11 to the Notice of 2017 Annual General Meeting for further information on proxy appointment through CREST.
