The Capita Group Plc ("Capita") announces that it has been selected by Abbey
Life Assurance Company Limited ("Abbey Life") and Deutsche Bank AG ("Deutsche
Bank") to provide administrative services for approximately 1.1 million life
and pensions policies. Abbey Life was acquired by Deutsche Bank in October
2007, from Lloyds TSB.

The deal, which is subject to final agreement of commercial terms, is worth £
130 million over 10 years and will involve the transfer of approximately 300
Bournemouth-based staff to Capita under TUPE. Capita will deliver a business
transformation programme to provide Abbey Life with a robust and modern
technology platform, along with ongoing improvements in cost-effective service
delivery. The service is expected to start in January 2009.

Paul Pindar, Chief Executive of the Capita Group Plc, commented: "We are
delighted to have been selected to administer Abbey Life's life and pensions
policies. The contract will draw upon Capita's extensive expertise in life and
pensions administration and reflects the very high standards Abbey Life sets
for the management of its policies. We look forward to welcoming all staff who
transfer to Capita."

Neil Tointon, Director and Chief Operating Officer at Abbey Life, said: "Capita
was chosen because we believe that it can best deliver a transformation
programme designed to maintain - and increase - the quality and dependability
of our services to customers. Capita has experience with the particular needs
of regulated financial products providers and we believe that they can play an
effective, strategic partnership role to support our ambitions in the life and
pensions market. We look forward to working with them."
