                    NAVTRAK SYSTEM TO BE STANDARD EQUIPMENT
                        ON THE NEW MASERATI QUATTROPORTE

ITIS Holdings plc (ITIS) today announces that Maserati UK has approved its
NavTrak system as the only vehicle tracking system to be installed as standard
on all new Maserati Quattroporte cars.

This news further endorses ITIS' strategy to work directly with vehicle
manufacturers to provide services, which are supplied as standard on new cars
thereby avoiding the high costs associated with marketing and selling to the
individual customer. This is very different strategy to a product being approved
as an accessory where a third party dealership is ultimately responsible for
up-selling the product to the customer.

Stuart Marks, Chief Executive of ITIS Holdings Plc, commented, "NavTrak's
original product has been exclusively fitted as standard on Ferrari, and as an
option on Maserati, since February 2003.  We are delighted that features such as
full European service coverage and ease of installation, have now led NavTrak to
be chosen as a standard fit on this exciting new model.  This selection is a
major endorsement of our NavTrak system and the service we deliver."

James Pillar, Head of Marketing for Ferrari and Maserati UK commented, "NavTrak
is an intelligent tool in addressing the issue of car theft. No matter how
sophisticated a car's alarms and immobilisers, there's little that can protect
it against a determined thief who has obtained the driver's keys.  By committing
to fit NavTrak as standard on the Maserati Quattroporte in the UK, we're
maximising the chances of quickly recovering a high value performance and luxury
car, particularly before any damage is incurred."

NavTrak uses GPS and GSM technology to track the stolen vehicle, and aid a fast
recovery through established procedures with police forces, in Britain and
across 23 continental European countries covered under NavTrak's service.
