KMBL has requested UBL, being one of its major shareholders, to support its recapitalization efforts and ensure successful completion of the capital raising by acting as underwriter for the Rights Issue at Discount.

 

The Board of Directors of UBL in their 262nd meeting held on July 22, 2026, have:

 

(i)         approved the Bank's entering into the underwriting arrangement with KMBL in connection with KMBL's Rights Issue at Discount, on an arms-length basis and on such terms and conditions as may be determined by the management.

 

(ii)        approved and recommended, subject to receipt / maintenance of all requisite shareholder and regulatory approvals, consents, permissions and no-objections as may be required under applicable law, further equity investment by UBL in KMBL of up to PKR 22 billion such that its aggregate shareholding in KMBL may increase accordingly ("Proposed Equity Investment"), by way of:

 

a.   Subscription of the Bank's proportionate entitlement under KMBL's Rights Issue at Discount at the applicable discounted issue price and on the terms to be notified by KMBL in the formal rights offer documentation;

b.   Subscription of all unsubscribed shares in the Bank's capacity as underwriter at the applicable discounted price and subject to the terms and conditions agreed with KMBL as part of the underwriting arrangement; and

(iii)       approved and authorized the execution of the due diligence report prepared in connection with the Proposed Equity Investment, the duly signed recommendations of which are to be among the materials made available for inspection at this EOGM.
