           Capita signs mortgage contract with The Co-operative Bank           

Capita confirms that it has signed a contract with The Co-operative Bank to
transform its mortgage servicing operation in the UK. Capita previously
announced on 14 November 2014 that it had been selected as preferred bidder for
this contract by The Co-operative Bank. The contract is worth up to £325m over
10 years and is starting on 1 August 2015.

As part of the deal Capita is acquiring Western Mortgage Services Limited
(WMS), The Co-operative Bank's mortgage administration business. The
acquisition is due to complete on 1 August 2015. Capita is acquiring WMS for £
25 million on a cash free, debt free basis with a further deferred
consideration of £5m to be made one year after the acquisition.

Andy Parker, Capita Chief Executive, said: "This deal and acquisition,
alongside our recent announcement that we are acquiring Vertex Mortgage
Services Limited, subject to regulatory approval, will help Capita achieve its
ambition of becoming the leading end-to-end mortgage processing partner for
clients.

"Capita will work with The Co-operative Bank to deliver an enhanced service for
customers. This will be done by drawing upon Capita's existing and wide ranging
commercial debt-servicing capabilities and its heritage of large scale customer
service transformation across a range of industries."
