Implementation of Long Term Incentive Plan

Cerillion, the billing, charging and customer relationship management ("CRM") software solutions provider, is pleased to announce the establishment of a new Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") and the grant of options under the LTIP to six members of the Company's senior management team (together the "Senior Managers").

The LTIP has been established to further incentivise the Senior Managers, who currently have limited equity in the Group, in the creation of long-term value for shareholders.  The options are exercisable at the nominal value of the ordinary shares and have today been granted over an aggregate of 300,000 ordinary shares, representing approximately 1% of the current issued share capital of the Company.  The LTIP provides for these options to vest, in full, three years from the date of the grant, subject to the achievement of targets for compound annual growth in the share price of the Company over this vesting period.  The targets are as follows:

Below 8% compound annual growth:	nil vesting
8% compound annual growth:	25% vesting
15% compound annual growth:	100% vesting
Between 8% and 15% compound annual growth:	straight line vesting between 25% and 100%

The LTIP also contains standard provisions dealing with certain matters such as cessation of employment and change of control.  No Directors of the Company are participants in the LTIP.
