Cancellation of Admission

RNS Number:9950S
Civica PLC

                                   Civica plc

                           Cancellation of admission



23 April 2008

Civica plc ("Civica" or the "Company")

Cancellation of admission



The Company announces that it has applied to the London Stock Exchange for the
cancellation of trading of Civica's shares on AiM. In accordance with the rules
of AiM, cancellation will take place no earlier than 20 business days from
today's date and it is currently anticipated that cancellation will take effect
from 7.00 a.m. on 21 May 2008.



This follows the announcement on 21 April 2008 by Cornwall BidCo Limited
("Cornwall Bidco") that its recommended cash offer ("Offer") to acquire the
whole of the issued and to be issued share capital of Civica had been declared
wholly unconditional and that it intended to procure that Civica applied for the
cancellation of trading of the Company's shares on AiM. In the same
announcement, Cornwall BidCo stated that it intended, pursuant to its rights
under sections 974 to 991 (inclusive) of the Companies Act 2006, to acquire
compulsorily all of the Civica shares in respect of which valid acceptances of
the Offer had not been received.



Civica shareholders should note that cancellation is likely to reduce
significantly the liquidity and marketability of Civica shares. Once
cancellation has taken effect, Civica shareholders will no longer be able to
effect transactions in Civica shares on market at the market price. Following
cancellation, therefore, Civica shareholders will have to effect any further
transactions in Civica shares off market at a price to be agreed between the
relevant parties.
