Mono Bank PLC obtains Frankfurt Stock Exchange trading symbol

London, United Kingdom - May 16th, 2006 6:00 PM BST

Mono Bank PLC is pleased to announce that the company has obtained our ticker symbol from the FWB (Frankfurter Wertpapierborse) or Frankfurt Stock Exchange, which represents the primary step in the FWB listing process. MonoBank PLC has received a German Securities Code Number (WKN number) – A0MRLW and will be trading under the ticker symbol – WNW.

This represents the commencement of the listing and filing process and the company anticipates it will take 30 days to complete this process and begin trading on the FWB. The Frankfurt Stock Exchange will provide increased international visibility and allow the company to attract Institutional and Private Investment in Germany, across Europe and around the world. The FWB was founded in 1585 and is the largest of eight German securities exchanges operated by Deutsche Borse AG and ranks as the world’s third largest securities exchange behind NYSE and NASDAQ. Once listed on the FWB, MonoBank plans to apply for a dual listing on the Pink Sheets or NASDAQ OTCBB.

This critical milestone in the company’s development will assist in creating financing opportunities required for the rapid deployment of the MonoBank product marketing strategy for Europe, Asia, the Americas and strategic emerging global markets.
