Notes to editors:

Chesnara plc, which listed on the London Stock Exchange in May 2004, is the
owner of Countrywide Assured plc ("CA"). CA is a life assurance subsidiary that
is substantially closed to new business. In June 2005 Chesnara acquired City of
Westminster Assurance ("CWA") for £47.8m. With effect from 30 June 2006, CWA's
policies and assets were transferred into CA plc. Chesnara's operating model is
to maintain a relatively small governance team and outsource the majority of
its back office functions. Chesnara continues to seek acquisition opportunities
in the financial services sector.
