## From the administrators' statement

The following narrative has been provided by the Company director, Mr John Vernon:

Metstok Limited was incorporated on 7 May 2013 by Mr Vernon who had previous experience in the steel industry. Mr Vernon was a managing director of a previous steel stock holding company from 1979 to 2002. This Company failed in 2002.

Mr Vernon decided to start up Metstok Limited in 2013, as there was a gap in the market for the supply of steel within the Asian — Europe market. The Company allowed for stockholders and salesmen to access steel from markets more easily, reducing time and import costs.
