ChoicePoint® Announces Intention to

Retain ChoicePoint Precision Marketing

ALPHARETTA, GA – November 28, 2006 – ChoicePoint (NYSE: CPS) announced today its Board of Directors’ decision to retain the marketing services business. The company had announced in July 2006 its intention to divest this business as part of the company-wide strategic review. ChoicePoint Precision Marketing, a leading provider of direct marketing technologies and services, has approximately 670 employees in offices around the country.

“Despite our previously stated desire to divest this business, we have been unable to obtain a fair market price, particularly given the recent downturn in one of our leading customer segments, the mortgage market,” said company chairman and chief executive officer Derek V. Smith. “After considering our options it became clear to the Board that the best interests of our shareholders and customers were served by running this business as part of our continuing operations, rather than seeking to sell in the face of current market conditions.”

“Precision Marketing has long served its customers with superior direct marketing solutions and technologies,” said ChoicePoint Precision Marketing general manager Scott Hudson. “Based on recent discussions with our customers, I am convinced our clients fully support this decision.”

ChoicePoint continues to make significant progress overall in executing its strategic transformation as outlined in the various public filings of the company. ChoicePoint remains engaged in an active sales process regarding the other businesses that it previously announced its intention to divest.

As a result of this decision the company will begin reporting the results of its marketing services segment in continuing operations, beginning with its fourth quarter results. Restated quarterly segment results for 2005 and 2006 are included in this release and will be available on the company’s website,www.choicepoint.com.

ChoicePoint is modifying its prior full year guidance for 2006 due solely to the reporting change and the previously announced reclassification of other businesses as discontinued operations beginning in the fourth quarter. The Company now expects 2006 full year internal revenue growth from continuing operations to be in the range of 3 to 4 percent, including mid single digit growth in the fourth quarter. Including the impact of acquisitions, total revenue growth is expected to be in the range of 4 to 5 percent for the full year 2006.

Additionally, the Company expects operating profit margins from continuing operations to be approximately 25 to 26 percent for the full year, including operating margins in the 24 to 25 percent range in the fourth quarter. These estimates exclude the impact of impairment charges, stock option expense, on-going legal expenses related to the previously-disclosed fraudulent data access, and operating charges related to the Company’s centralization of functions and consolidation of certain technology platforms. Operating profit margins from continuing operations including these expenses are projected to be approximately 12 to 13 percent for the full year.
