The board is pleased to announce the appointment of Philip Green as a
non-executive director of Lloyds TSB Group plc from 10th May, 2007.

Philip Green brings many years of valuable experience to Lloyds TSB Group. He is
Chief Executive of United Utilities plc and was formerly Chief Executive of

(Biographical details are attached.)



Note to comply with LR 9.6.13R of the UK Listing Authority's listing rules. The
company confirms that Mr. Green has held directorships in publicly quoted
companies during the past five years as stated above and the only matter to be
disclosed under LR 9.6.13R (2) to (6) of the listing rules in relation to Mr.
Green is that he was a director of Coloroll Group plc from 1985 to 1990.
Coloroll went into receivership in June 1990 and subsequently into liquidation
in October 1990. Mr. Green was a trustee of the Coloroll Directors' Retirement
Benefits Scheme from 1987 to 1991. In March 1994, the Pensions Ombudsman upheld
complaints of maladministration and breach of trust against the trustees
relating to the transfer in 1989 of a property owned by Coloroll's chairman to
the pension scheme. Neither the Ombudsman nor any of the Ombudsman's
representatives discussed the matter with Mr. Green and no action has been
taken.
