                              EMBARGOED FOR RELEASE

                      TUESDAY 27 FEBRUARY 2007 AT 7.00 AM



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


Long Term Incentive Plan ('LTIP')


The Board of Numis today announces that it has approved awards of 1,078,541
(1.02%) Numis shares at a price of 287.75p per share under the Numis LTIP.
Awards under the LTIP will be funded entirely by the allocation of 2,157,082
(2.03%) Numis shares, held by the Numis Corporation Plc Employee Share Trust
('the Trust'). The Trust currently holds 9,549,437 (8.99%) Numis shares
specifically for the Company's LTIP.


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


The awards under the LTIP of 2,157,082 (2.03%) Numis shares therefore represents
1,078,541 (1.02%) Numis shares purchased by employees and 1,078,541(1.02%)
matching shares.


Numis Equity Incentive Scheme for Employees of Numis Securities Inc

The US Restricted Stock Plan ('USRSP')


The Board of Numis also announces that it has approved awards under the recently
introduced US Restricted Stock Plan ('USRSP'), an equity share incentive scheme
for US employees of Numis Securities Inc ('NSI'), (the terms of which are
similar to those for the Numis UK Long Term Incentive Plan). Under the terms of
the scheme, employees are invited to subscribe for Numis shares on the basis
that for each new Numis share purchased they will receive, at no further cost to
them, one additional Numis share.


Under the Numis USRSP, Numis approved awards of 22,182 (0.02%) Numis shares at a
price of 287.75p per share. The awards represent 22,182 (0.02%) shares to be
purchased by the employees and 22,182 (0.02%) matching shares and will be funded
entirely by the allocation of 44,364 (0.04%) Numis shares, held by the Trust.


The total number of shares awarded under both the UK LTIP and the US USRSP
totals 2,201,446 (2.07%), representing 1,100,723 (1.04%) shares to be purchased
by employees and 1,100,723 (1.04%) matching shares. 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 under each
scheme.


The Numis shares referred to above are Numis' ordinary shares of 5p each and the
total number of shares in issue is 106,252,148 with each ordinary share carrying
the right to vote. There are no shares held in treasury.
