    BLUE BELL, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 12, 2003--

      R&SA's UK Life Operations Will Transfer to Unisys Insurance
       Services Limited (UISL), One of The Largest Providers of
          Managed Insurance Administration Services in the UK

In one of the biggest-ever outsourcing agreements in the UK life and
pensions market, Royal & SunAlliance and Unisys (NYSE:UIS) today
announced that Unisys Insurance Services Limited (UISL) -- a wholly
owned Unisys subsidiary--will undertake the processing and
administration of the 2.4 million life and pensions policies of Royal
& SunAlliance's UK Life operation.

The contract is for an initial term of 10 years with an estimated
value in excess of $450 million (300 million Pounds Sterling), based
on projected policy volume. 

By drawing on Unisys end-to-end insurance administration processing
expertise, Royal & SunAlliance expects to improve customer service,
maintain competitive costs per policy and expand the professional
opportunities of its employees transferring to UISL.

Peter Hanby, managing director of Royal & SunAlliance's UK Life
operation, said, "This deal delivers highly competitive and directly
variable administration costs for our Life business, at the same time
as providing our customers with good quality service in the future. It
is also good news for those employees transferring across to Unisys,
who will be joining a leading outsourcing specialist, whilst
maintaining stretching career opportunities for those people remaining
in R&SA's Governance Team."

Peter Thomas, managing director at UISL said, "Unisys has an excellent
track record of providing managed services worldwide that deliver
tangible business results to our clients and their customers. We are
delighted to have R&SA UK Life become a client of UISL, where we will
now manage more than four million policies for the life and pensions
market in the UK. We welcome the R&SA employees transferring across to
us, and we're confident that together we will make the most of the
opportunities that exist to develop in a dynamic, global market."

The new arrangement is designed to deliver high levels of service for
R&SA customers, who will be served by UISL. UISL is one of the UK's
largest providers of managed insurance administration services,
including 1.7 million policies for Abbey Life.

Over the term of the Royal & SunAlliance agreement, UISL will maintain
the continuity of customer services while improving the operation's
capability and efficiency, enhancing business applications and
migrating legacy computer systems to open, strategic platforms.

The deal also secures for Royal & SunAlliance a competitive
maintenance cost per policy through the contract's variable cost
structure as well as the improved operational efficiency and
flexibility Unisys can bring to the UK Life business operation.

The announcement follows Royal & SunAlliance's decision to close its
UK Life operation to new clients as part of its ongoing strategy to
reshape the company.

As part of the arrangement, effective on May 1, approximately 1,700
R&SA employees will transfer to UISL, which will maintain R&SA's
operations in Liverpool and Horsham. The contract opens professional
opportunities for R&SA's Life employees, who will be transferring to a
market-leading outsourcing specialist with operations worldwide.

R&SA and Unisys consulted fully with union representatives throughout
the development of this agreement. R&SA's UK Life operation will
retain a small governance team to manage both the Unisys and other
existing outsourced contracts, oversee the financial and regulatory
responsibilities of the life company and provide legislative and
regulatory reporting to the Group.
