Capital Injection by B Shareholder

OneSavings Bank Plc, the mutual Bank, announces it has issued 900 Ordinary shares and 489,340 preference shares for a total consideration of £15,000,000 to JC Flowers. The planned capital injection from its existing shareholder is to support the Bank's growth strategy through organic mortgage lending and further acquisitions.

The Bank also announces the retirement of Andrew Newell from the Board with effect from 29 May 2012. The Board now comprises two executive and six non-executive directors.

Stephan Wilcke, Chairman, commented:

"The Board is pleased that it has secured a further planned capital injection from JC Flowers to pursue its growth strategy. This is a perfect example of the significant benefits that the Bank's hybrid structure delivers by providing access to capital whilst staying close to its mutual values. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Andrew for his contribution to the Bank during this transitional period and over the last seven years at Kent Reliance."
