Dear Margaret,

     On    5 November 2007 the Board of BT Group plc confirmed that, following your    retirement as a director on    14 January 2008, you should continue as an external member          of the Community Support Committee. This letter sets out the termsof your appointment. 

**Appointment**

      Your    appointment is for an initial period of three years commencing 14 January    2008. During that period either    you or the Board can give the other at least three months written notice  to terminate the appointment at any time. 

**Time commitment**

      As    you know, it is difficult to be precise about the amount of time you need    to set aside for the Committee's    work. It meets three times a year. Meetings          do not normally last more than two hours. In addition to the time needed    to attend these meetings you will also need to allow an appropriate amount    of          time to prepare before each Committee meeting. You will also be asked    to attend functions/events and to visit community projects in action on behalf    of the Committee. We estimate you should allow a minimum of three days eachyear for these activities.

**Fees and expenses**

      You will receive fees for your services      as an externalmember of the Community Support Committee of £6,500 a year. 

      The    Company will either pay or reimburse you for all travelling, hotel and other    expenses incurred onthe Committee's business. 

**Conflicts of interest**

      It    is accepted and acknowledged that you have business interests other than    those of BT. Should you become    aware of any conflict of interest during your period          of appointment, you must disclose this to the Secretary as soon asit becomes apparent. 

**Confidentiality**

      Some    of the information sent to you in connection with the work of the Committee    will need to be treated    as commercially confidential. We will advise you when this is the case. In    these circumstances you are to keep that information and any related material    secure and you undertake that you will neither release it to third parties    without prior clearance from the Secretary nor allow it to be in any otherway divulged to or seen by any other person. 

**Insurance**

      If,    at any time, legal proceedings are taken against you as an officer of BT    Group plc you will, to the extent    it is provided, be covered by BT's directors'and	officers' liability insurance. 

**Termination**

      Upon    termination of your appointment, you will at the Company's request promptly    resign in writing as an external    member of the Community Support Committee. The Secretary is irrevocably authorisedto sign a letter of resignation on your behalf if you fail to do so.

      Please    confirm acceptance of these terms by signing and returning to me the attached    copy of this letter.
