Quindell Plc

("Quindell" or the "Company" or the "Group")

Shareholder Circular Correction

On 30 March 2015, the Board of Quindell wrote to Shareholders advising them that the Company had entered into a conditional sale and purchase agreement to dispose of the Professional Services Division ("PSD") to Slater and Gordon Limited ("SGH") for an initial cash consideration of £637 million and further contingent cash consideration payable in respect of the future settlement of its clients' noise induced hearing loss ("NIHL") cases ("Disposal"). Words and expressions where defined in that Circular shall, unless the context provides otherwise, have the same meaning in this announcement.

It is noted on page 6 of the Circular that the profits attributable to the Professional Services Division were stated as follows:

"During the financial year ended 31 December 2013, the profits before tax generated by the Professional Services Division contributed in aggregate £82,500,0001 to the Group. During the six months ended 30 June 2014, the profits before tax generated by the Professional Services Division contributed in aggregate £113,400,0002."

The Board has noted that there was a failure to fully transcribe profits related to entities forming part of the Disposal as disclosed in the Circular (predominantly in respect of iSaaS Technology Limited and Intelligent Claims Management Limited, entities previously included within the Company's "Digital Solutions" division in historic financial information). As a result, the corrected total profits attributable to the Professional Services Division are as follows:

"During the financial year ended 31 December 2013, the profits before tax generated by the Professional Services Division contributed in aggregate £96,000,0001 to the Group. During the six months ended 30 June 2014, the profits before tax generated by the Professional Services Division contributed in aggregate £130,700,000 2."

The Company also confirms that during the financial year ended 31 December 2013, the adjusted profits before tax generated by the retained businesses (all save for those detailed as within the Professional Services Division) contributed in aggregate £6,800,000 to the Group (excluding the net gain on re-measurement of investments on becoming associates and associates on acquisition of control in the 12 months ended 31 December 2013 of £4,200,000 as announced in Note 9 of the 2013 Annual Report). Subject to audit, during the six months ended 30 June 2014, the adjusted profits before tax generated by the retained businesses contributed in aggregate £8,500,000 to the Group (excluding the provisional estimate of the gain on re-measurement of acquisitions/investments in relation to the Himex group in the six months ended 30 June 2014 of £14,500,000 as announced in Note 5 of the Interim Statement of 21 August 2014).

The Board also confirms the following:

The Company will write to Shareholders enclosing this announcement and confirms that the General Meeting of the Company to approve the Disposal will be held, as previously detailed, at 10.00 a.m. on 17 April 2015 at Botleigh Grange Hotel, Grange Road, Hedge End, Southampton SO30 2FL.

The Company's securities are expected to be restored to trading at 3.45 pm today.

Notes

1. Profit in respect of the financial year ended 31 December 2013 represents an aggregation (after eliminating intercompany balances) of the figures derived from the unaudited management information used for the preparation of the audited accounts for that year and applies the accounting policies as detailed in the published annual accounts for that year. To the extent that Quindell Legal Services Limited, Mobile Doctors Limited and Quindell Business Process Services Limited (formerly Ai Claims Solutions Limited) are included in these figures, the information used in respect of those companies has been audited. The profits attributable to companies and businesses acquired by the Group during the course of the year ended 31 December 2013 are taken into account from the effective date of acquisition. As per the section headed "Independent PwC report and accounting policies" of the announcement by the Company dated 30 March 2015, the accounting policies adopted in preparing these numbers are now likely to change.

2.
