VocaLink Partners With ABN AMRO for SEPA Clearing Services

AMSTERDAM, October 25, 2010 - VocaLink, the international payments specialist, today
announced that it has selected ABN AMRO as its new Liquidity Bridge Bank.
This will ensure it can continue to deliver SEPA payments to all available
destinations through its interoperability agreement with EBA Clearing.

Several leading European banks use VocaLink's service to
secure later cut-off and earlier delivery of payments to key destinations
where VocaLink has bespoke arrangements. This enables banks to compete more
effectively for corporate payments business, allowing treasurers to conduct
business more efficiently and improve their liquidity.

Superiority in SEPA services is beginning to emerge as a
competitive factor for corporate payments banking business. Corporates,
particularly those trading primarily with other businesses, increasingly
recognise the value of managing their business from a single account. Banks
using VocaLink as their clearing partner stand out because they can accept
payment instructions later in the day and/or deliver them more quickly.

Maarten Mol, Chief Operating Officer at ABN AMRO, comments:
"Our partnership with VocaLink will provide banks and their customers with
greater flexibility in submitting payments. Ultimately, this allows corporate
treasurers to do more business and grow their business long-term. In
addition, it underlines our position as a leading financial institution in
Europe and one of the few banks able to provide this kind of specialist
service."

Fred Bar, Managing Director, Euro Services at Vocalink, adds:
"Through VocaLink's CSM service, which has been operational since early 2008,
banks are already able to submit payments quickly and efficiently. This
agreement with ABN AMRO complements our existing service and ensures we can
reach 100% of SEPA destinations."

The VocaLink Euro CSM offers a comprehensive range of SEPA
payment services, including SEPA Credit Transfers, SEPA Direct Debits and a
suite of value-added services such as payment capture and authorisation and
mandate management.
