Re Agreement

ITIS Holdings PLC 05 May 2005 5th May 2005 ITIS ENTERS INTO AGREEMENT WITH DELCAN FOR DELIVERY OF CFVDTM TECHNOLOGY ACROSS NORTH AMERICA ITIS Holdings plc ('ITIS') is pleased to announce that it has entered into a new agreement with Delcan•NET Inc. ('Delcan'), a US based provider of transportation management and traveller information systems, to accelerate the delivery of Cellular Floating Vehicle Data ('CFVDTM') traffic flow management projects to public agencies in North America. ITIS has previously collaborated with Delcan to establish the initial North American CFVDTM project in Baltimore (Maryland, USA). The CFVDTM technology, developed by a subsidiary of ITIS based in Israel, generates real time traffic flow information based on anonymously sampling the positions of mobile phones in moving vehicles. One of the challenges for ITIS has been to satisfy the demand for CFVDTM in North America without incurring the cost of an expensive business development and operational infrastructure. Working with Delcan will enable us to access the public agencies, such as State Departments of Transport in a cost effective and rapid manner, many of whom Delcan already work with. Under the terms of the agreement, Delcan will receive certain commission payments dependent on the contract size and their level of involvement. Stuart Marks, Chief Executive, ITIS Holdings plc added: 'Formalising our relationship with Delcan will enable us to roll out CFVDTM to many more public agencies in North America at greater speed and at less cost than if we had undertaken this by ourselves. CFVDTM is an exciting and proven technology with fully developed working sites in Israel, Belgium and Baltimore. We believe that with Delcan, we can continue to successfully deliver CFVDTM projects in North America.' Jim Kerr, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Delcan said 'We selected ITIS as our exclusive partner for this technology because of their proven track record in the traffic information business and their unrivalled experience in deploying CFVDTM successfully in European markets where CFVDTM is generating reliable urban information which up to now has never been available. Our work with the Maryland Department of Transportation on the Baltimore project, as well as discussions with state and local Departments of Transportation nationwide, have convinced us without doubt that there is huge interest in this technology and commitment to deploy it'. - Ends - Contact: Stuart Marks, Chief Executive, ITIS Holdings plc - 0161 929 5788 Ginny Pulbrook, Citigate Dewe Rogerson - 0207 638 9571 ABOUT ITIS HOLDINGS PLC ITIS Holdings plc, listed on the London Stock Exchange, is one of the UK's leading providers of traffic information services.

From its modest beginnings more than 50 years ago, Delcan•NET has a long history of developing transportation management and traveler information systems in North America. More information can be found at www.delcan.com ABOUT CFVDTM CFVDTM was developed by Israel based Estimotion Inc. which was founded in July 2000 and was acquired by ITIS in December 2003. CFVDTM is patented technology which provides a unique and high quality system for measuring and forecasting real time traffic flow based on anonymously sampling the positions of mobile phones. Whilst an individual record of a mobile phone's position is typically less accurate than a corresponding GPS record, this is compensated by the large number of mobile phones on any road, knowledge of the underlying road network and the application of statistical techniques. ITIS has developed full working sites, using live mobile phone data in the Tel Aviv area of Israel, Antwerp in Belgium and in Baltimore and has successfully calibrated the results against traffic simulation models and loop data. ITIS has a US patent with 149 claims for this technology which complements the US patent 'Instantaneous Traffic Monitoring System' which the company acquired on 1 November 2002.
