              LAND SECURITIES AGREES FURTHER MID TOWN LETTING WITH
                 DELOITTE FOR NEW HEADQUARTERS BUILDING IN EC4

Land Securities today announces that Deloitte has agreed to lease a further
building at its 'New Street Square' development on New Fetter Lane, EC4.

In addition to Building B, which comprises 209,360 sq ft (19,500 sq m) of
offices over 10 floors, Deloitte has exercised its option over Building C, a
further 41,400 sq ft (3,846 sq m) of office accommodation.  Both buildings will
be ready for fit out in the Summer of 2007.

Mike Hussey, Land Securities' Managing Director, London Portfolio, commented;

'This is further vindication that New Street Square is well suited to the large
professional services occupier.  The development will breathe new life into this
commercial district and we are delighted that Deloitte has made this decision.'

David Gill, head of property and corporate services at Deloitte, said;

'This additional space will provide us with greater flexibility in accommodating
our people and will be in close proximity to our current offices.'

The Bennetts Associates designed development replaces an assortment of post war
office blocks with four contemporary office buildings, all of which open onto a
new landscaped central square lined by shops and cafes.  The letting to Deloitte
leaves approximately 382,000 sq ft of offices and circa 30,000 sq ft of retail
available for pre-let within the scheme.

CB Richard Ellis acted for Land Securities and Jones Lang LaSalle advised
Deloitte.  CB Richard Ellis and Jones Lang LaSalle are joint leasing agents for
the development.
