"So a further 500 million shares in issue making a total of 672,676,547 shares in issue?
At 50p that would give a market cap of about £336 million.
The capital position would have improved by £325 million. Some bondholders getting a haircut and a sale of some mortgage assets on the cards.
I would have thought the total of this outcome would have resulted in a positive price per share later today?, but of course the market will decide as usual, taking further out prospects into account."
Bail-in is one of the stabilisation tools available to the Bank as resolution authority under the Banking Act 2009. Bail-in ensures investors, rather than public funds, bear losses where a firm fails. ???

The deal also involves a restructuring of its debts that will extend the maturity of its borrowings, with holders of a 250 million pound Metro Bank tier 2 bond due in June 2028 taking a 40% haircut.
Holders of that bond will be swapped into a new bond paying a 14% interest rate, while holders of a separate bail-in MREL bond will switch out to a new one paying a 12% coupon.
"The bank announced late on Sunday that it had secured a £325m capital raise, including £150m of new equity from shareholders, and £600m of debt refinancing."
The lender - which launched in 2010 to challenge the dominance of Britain's big banks - said the capital raise comprised 150 million pounds of new equity and a 175 million pound issuance of bail-in debt known as "MREL".
A bail-in is a form of financial relief for banks that are in danger of collapsing or going bankrupt. The relief comes from canceling some or all of the bank's debt by reducing the value of bank shares, bonds, and uninsured deposits.

@Roger, you can pick up a code reader, look up the codes to see what faults are indicated then perform good old fashion fault finding to prove the code...
I had a fault recently with the car stalling when coming to a stop, and rough idling, fine otherwise... But the stalling suggested an issue with the timing being out as you came to a stop.. code reader said camshaft position sensor low, so sensor or wiring or Eng Man.. so it was a case of checking the voltages, and continuity to the sensor to eliminate the Eng Man and wiring.. leaving the sensor..
I borrowed a phone with an app, and wireless connector to plug into the car...
