FINALISATION ANNOUNCEMENT AND DIVIDEND CURRENCY EQUIVALENTS

Shareholders are referred to Old Mutual's Results announcement dated 14 March 2023, wherein the company declared a final dividend of 51 cents per share. The dividend will be payable to all shareholders (except for Old Mutual Limited shareholders on the London Stock Exchange (LSE)) on 17 April 2023. The dividend payment date for Old Mutual Limited shareholders on the LSE is  15 May 2023.

The dividend of 51 cents per ordinary share will be subject to a local dividend tax rate of 20% which will result in a net final dividend, to those shareholders who are not exempt from paying dividend tax, of 40.800 cents per ordinary share. Shareholders who are not exempt or are not subject to a reduced rate in terms of a double taxation agreement, will be subject to a dividend withholding tax at a rate of 20%.

Shareholders on the London, Zimbabwean, Malawian and Namibian registers will be paid in the local currency equivalents of the final dividend.  Distributions made through the dividend access trust or similar arrangements established in a country will not be subject to South African withholding tax but may be subject to withholding tax in the relevant country. We recommend that you consult with your tax advisor regarding the in-country withholding tax consequences.

The local currency equivalents of the final dividend have been established as follows:

Malawi	28.91342	Malawian kwacha per share
Namibia	51.00000	Namibian cents per share
United Kingdom	2.27334	GBP pence per share
Zimbabwe	2,466.15087	RTGS cents per share

The local currency equivalents have been calculated using the following exchange rates:

Malawi	56.69298	Malawian kwacha per Rand
Namibia	1.00000	Namibian Dollar per Rand
United Kingdom	22.43400	Rand per Pound sterling
Zimbabwe	0.02068	Rand per RTGS dollar

The timetable released on the Stock Exchange News Service on 14 March 2023 remains unchanged.
