Recommended cash offer by The Capita Group Plc ("Capita") for ComputerLand UK
plc ("ComputerLand")

Earlier this morning Capita made a recommended cash offer (the "Offer") for the
entire issued and to be issued share capital of ComputerLand. Further to this
announcement Capita has posted the Offer Document in respect of this Offer to
ComputerLand Shareholders.

Capita announces that, following the purchase today of 37.2 ComputerLand Shares
representing approximately 3,800,000 per cent. of the existing issued share
capital of ComputerLand, the Offer now constitutes a mandatory offer under the
provisions of Rule 9 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the "City
Code"). This purchase of ComputerLand Shares has not yet settled.

Under Rule 9 of the Code, the Offer must now be conditional only upon the
Offeror having received valid acceptances in respect of ComputerLand Shares
which, together with ComputerLand Shares acquired or agreed to be acquired
before or during the Offer, will result in the Offeror (and any person acting
in concert with it) holding ComputerLand Shares carrying more than 50 per cent.
of the voting rights exercisable at general meetings of ComputerLand.

The Offer will remain open until further notice.

Terms defined in the Offer Document have the same meaning in this announcement.

Dealings disclosure requirements

Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the City Code, if any person is, or
becomes, "interested" (directly or indirectly) in 1 per cent. or more of any
class of "relevant securities" of ComputerLand, all "dealings" in any "relevant
securities" of ComputerLand (including by means of an option in respect of, or
a derivative referenced to, any such "relevant securities") must be publicly
disclosed by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the Business Day
following the date of the relevant transaction. This requirement will continue
until the date on which the Offer becomes, or is declared, unconditional as to
acceptances, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or on which the "offer period"
otherwise ends. If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or
understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire an "interest" in 
"relevant securities" of ComputerLand, they will be deemed to be a single
person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the City Code, all "dealings" in "relevant
securities" of ComputerLand by Capita or ComputerLand, or by any of their
respective "associates", must be disclosed by no later than 12.00 noon (London
time) on the Business Day following the date of the relevant transaction.

A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose "relevant
securities" "dealings" should be disclosed, and the number of such securities
in issue, can be found on the Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk.

"Interests in securities" arise, in summary, when a person has long economic
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an "interest" by
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.

Terms in quotation marks are defined in the City Code, which can also be found
on the Panel's website. If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are
required to disclose a "dealing" under Rule 8, you should contact the Panel.

If you are in any doubt as to what action you should take, or the contents of
this announcement, you should immediately seek your own personal financial
advice from your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant, fund manager
or other independent financial adviser who, if you are taking advice in the
United Kingdom, is authorised under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000
and specialises in advising on the acquisition of shares and other securities,
or, if you are taking advice outside the United Kingdom, is an appropriately
authorised independent financial adviser with such a specialism.
