Following the announcement by Old Mutual plc (the "Company") on 21 March 2012 regarding the completion of the sale of the Skandia Nordic business to Skandia Liv and the announcement on 9 March 2012 regarding the special dividend, final dividend and share consolidation, the Company's share consolidation will become effective today.  Applications have been made to the UK Listing Authority to amend the Official List and to the London Stock Exchange to amend the details of the Company's shares for trading purposes and the Company's new ordinary shares of 113/7 pence each ("New Ordinary Shares") are expected to be admitted to the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and commence trading on the London Stock Exchange at 8.00am today (UK time).

As announced on 20 April 2012, before the consolidation became effective 5,567,021,394 ordinary shares of 10 pence each were in issue.  Following the consolidation, a total of 4,871,143,719 New Ordinary Shares will be admitted to listing and trading and that figure is also the new number of voting rights for the purposes of calculating disclosable interests in the Company's ordinary share capital in accordance with Rule 5.6.1R of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
