Defendant: Single Resolution Board

Form of order sought

The applicants claim that the General Court should:

Declare this action for annulment admissible and well founded;

Pursuant to Article 277 TFEU, declare Regulation (EU) No 806/2014 inapplicable or, in the alternative, declare Articles 21, 22(2)(a) and 24 inapplicable, as well as Articles 18 and 23 thereof;

Annul the contested SRB Decision;

Order SRB to pay compensation to the applicants in respect of harm caused to them by the implementation of rules contrary to EU law;

In the alternative, order SRB to pay compensation to the applicants, as shareholders and creditors, based on the consideration that the Banco Popular’s valuation presented by the applicants is the final valuation under Regulation No 806/2014 in order to determine whether shareholders and creditors would have received better treatment had the institution under resolution initiated ordinary insolvency proceedings;

Order the defendant to pay the costs.
