Mourant & Co Trustees Limited, the trustee of the London Stock Exchange Employee
Benefit Trust, purchased 4,153 ordinary shares of 6 79/86 pence each in the
Company (Shares) on behalf of the senior executive noted below who is
participating in the London Stock Exchange Long Term Incentive Plan 2004 (the

purchase Shares in the Company (Investment Shares) and, in return, are granted a
matching award of Shares.
In return for the senior executive purchasing Investment Shares the Company has
granted him matching awards over such number of Shares that equals two times the
number of Shares that the director and senior executives could have bought had
the investment of his or her bonus been made on a pre-tax basis (the Matching
Award).
The following senior executive (being a person discharging managerial

To be eligible to receive the Matching Award, directors and senior executives
must leave their Investment Shares in the trust and remain in employment for a
period of three years from the date of grant of the Matching Award. The actual
number of Shares transferred to a director or senior executive on the vesting of
the Matching Award will depend on the extent to which a corporate performance
target (which relates to the Company's Total Shareholder Return relative to a
group of comparator companies) is satisfied over the three-year vesting period.
Full details of the LTIP are provided in the report on directors' remuneration
in the London Stock Exchange Group plc 2005 Annual Report.
