  26. 2008 Interim ResultsShare Buy-Backs and Capital Allocation • Following a review of the capital structure the company decided to increase share buy-backs to 4%-5% (£400-500 million) in each of 2007 and 2008, when market conditions are appropriate. • Share buy-backs in 2007 totalled 57.2m shares (£402.7 million) or 4.6% of issued capital. In addition 2.0m shares (£12.7 million) were purchased and held as treasury stock. • In the first half of 2008, share buy-backs totalled 18.8m shares (£112.2 million) or 1.6% of issued capital. All of these shares were cancelled. The annual rate is currently running at around 3%, lower than target, partly reflecting the requirement to withdraw from the market in the midst of the bid for TNS, discussions on which started at the beginning of May.
