Focus Solutions Group plc

("Focus" or "the Group")

Cancellation of trading on AIM

Focus announces that further to the statement made by the Group on 17 January 2011 regarding the intention to de-list its ordinary shares from trading on AIM, the Group today announces that its admission to trading on AIM will be cancelled with effect from 7 a.m. on 9 February 2011 (the "Cancellation") and that in accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules, the Group has notified the London Stock Exchange of the Cancellation. The Cancellation follows the announcement by Standard Life plc ("Standard Life") on 11 January 2011 that the recommended cash offer for Focus by Standard Life has been declared wholly unconditional.

After the cancellation of trading, Focus will be re-registered as a private company under the relevant provisions of the Companies Act 2006.

Focus shareholders who have not accepted the offer should note that cancellation is likely to reduce significantly the liquidity and marketability of Focus shares not acquired under the offer. Once cancellation has taken effect, Focus shareholders will no longer be able to effect transactions in Focus shares on AIM.
