APPENDIX

Intercapital Private Group Limited ("IPGL") has arrangements in place whereby
ICAP plc shares will be transferred to minority shareholders in IPGL's
subsidiary, Intercapital Brokerage Services Limited. These transfers are
pursuant to that arrangement. The arrangement dates back to the merger between
Intercapital plc and Exco plc in 1998. The balance of the entitlement now
amounts to 228,143 of ICAP representing 0.20% of the outstanding shares of the
company.

Because Michael Spencer owns more than one third of the shares in Intercapital
Private Group Limited, he is deemed by the Companies Act, 1985 to be interested
in all the shares owned by it. His economic interest in ICAP plc is not altered
by this transaction.
