                         EMBARGOED FOR RELEASE ON

                    Wednesday 11 January 2006 AT 7.00am

Numis Corporation Plc ('Numis' or 'the Company')

Long Term Incentive Plan ('LTIP')

The Board of Numis announces that, today, it approved awards under the LTIP in
respect of 790,196 (0.75%) Numis shares at a price of 255p per share. Numis
shares for the awards under the LTIP will be funded entirely from the allocation
of 790,196 (0.75%) Numis shares currently held by the Numis Corporation Plc
Employee Share Trust ('the Trust'). The Trust currently holds 8,630,117 (8.20%)
Numis shares specifically for the Company's LTIP.

Under the terms of the LTIP, employees are invited to subscribe for Numis shares
on such terms, the effect of which is that for each new Numis share purchased,
employees will receive, at no further cost to them, one further Numis share
(each a 'matching share').

The awards under the LTIP in respect of 1,580,392 shares (1.50%) represent
790,196 shares purchased by employees and the 790,196 matching shares to which
they are prospectively entitled. Subject to certain limited exceptions,
employees must remain in employment with the Numis Group for a minimum period of
5 years to achieve the matching share benefit.
