Merger Update

On August 4, 2005, Metris Companies Inc. announced a definitive agreement for HSBC Finance Corporation to acquire Metris in an all-cash transaction. Metris will become a wholly owned subsidiary of HSBC Finance Corporation upon completion of the transaction. The acquisition is subject to certain conditions, including resolution of the potential civil injunctive action of the SEC against Metris that was disclosed by the Company on July 12, 2005, approval by the stockholders of Metris, and various regulatory consents. Metris and HSBC have made all regulatory filings required to date and continue to expect the merger will be completed in the fourth quarter.
