Applications for Listing and Trading of additional ordinary shares in the Company

 

Old Mutual plc ("Old Mutual" or the "Company") has today made applications to the UK Listing Authority for the listing of up to 22,000,000 new ordinary shares of 11 3/7 pence each credited as fully paid ("Shares") and for the Shares to be admitted, when issued, to trading on the London Stock Exchange.

 

The Shares are to be issued to certain members of the management of Quilter Cheviot as part of the consideration payable under the terms of the acquisition of that business by Old Mutual Wealth which was announced on 17 October 2014.

 

Old Mutual will confirm the exact number of Shares to be admitted to listing and trading as and when the Quilter Cheviot transaction completes. When issued, the Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing ordinary shares.

 

Applications will also be made in due course for the Shares to be admitted to listing on the JSE Limited and the other exchanges where the Company has a secondary listing.
