             UK's largest insurance company, Norwich Union, selects
                  Intec Convergent Billing for its innovative
                      Pay As You Drive InsuranceTM service

   •Combination of advanced billing technology and GPS-based monitoring
    offers monthly itemised motor insurance bills and greater customer choice

London, 1 August 2006: The UK's largest insurer, Norwich Union, part of the
Aviva group, has contracted Intec to provide the billing technology for its Pay
As You Drive InsuranceTM. Under the terms of the contract, Intec is supplying
its Intec Convergent Billing (Singl.eView) software, plus associated
professional services, to allow Norwich Union to generate itemised monthly
bills.

The adoption of Intec Convergent Billing for vehicle insurance underlines the
flexibility of Intec's technology, which is used by many of the world's most
innovative telecoms carriers, including Virgin Mobile and '3'. The process of
rating and charging for vehicle usage is inherently similar to the billing
processes used in telecoms, and it will allow Norwich Union to deliver
sophisticated, itemised bills to customers with an accurate record of charges
and how they are incurred.

Iain Napier, Director of Telematics at Norwich Union, said: "We selected Intec
Convergent Billing because it is widely regarded as the telecoms industry's most
flexible and configurable billing technology, and because Intec was enthusiastic
in working with us to maximise the potential of this brand new system."

"We are very excited to be a key part of this new offering from one of the
industry's most influential companies," said Intec CEO, Kevin Adams. "When
Norwich Union asked us to become involved, we could immediately see that this
was an idea with great potential, not least because the sophistication of
billing systems developed for telecoms can be used to deliver all sorts of new
business opportunities to the customer. It also expands the use of our billing
technology into a completely new market, which we believe could potentially be
rolled out in many parts of the world."

Pay As You Drive InsuranceTM

Pay As You Drive Insurance uses a Global Positioning System (GPS)-based device
installed in the vehicle to record customer journeys. The journey data is then
relayed to a central computer using cellular technology. Norwich Union
calculates the customer's premium and an itemised monthly bill is produced.
Norwich Union believes this represents a major breakthrough in the calculation
of fairer motor insurance premiums and ultimately gives the policy holder
greater control, flexibility and choice.
