07.04.2008

In accordance with the decision of the Supervisory Board, an emergency general meeting of NOMOS-BANK’s shareholders will take place on 28 April to review the issue of increasing the bank’s charter capital by 7.5% — to 4.5 milliard Roubles.

It is expected that the bank will carry out the placement via closed subscription of 6,527,778 common nominal shares with a par value of 50 Roubles per each share. NOMOS-BANK’s Russian and Czech shareholders will become participants in the subscription. The attracted funds will be directed to the development of the bank’s current business, including investments in the expansion of its regional network. Under its plans for the current year, the bank intends to double the total number of its regional offices to ensure presence in all major Russian cities.

The agenda of the shareholders’ meeting also includes approval of the new text of the Statute of the Management Board of the Bank and amendments and addenda to the Bank’s Charter. The proposed changes will concern the scope of authority of the Bank’s Management Board and are aimed at ensuring a balanced combination of the principles of undivided authority and collective leadership in corporate decision-making.
