business.   settlement of the at1 notes is expected to occur today and will be listed on the international securities market of the london stock exchange.  coupon payments will be made semi-annually, on 1 may and 1 november throughout the life of the instrument, commencing on 1 november 2025.  the instrument has a first reset date on 1 may 2031, and it is first callable any time in the six-months prior to and including the reset date.   settlement of the tender offer is expected to occur on 2 october 2025.  upon settlement, the tendered tier 2 notes will be cancelled, leaving £141.5m outstanding.   chief financial officer, dave watts, and group treasurer, steve grainger, will present further details on the transaction via investor meet company at 14:00 bst on friday, 17 october
