FINALISATION ANNOUNCEMENT AND DIVIDEND CURRENCY EQUIVALENTS

Shareholders are referred to Old Mutual's Results announcement dated 23 March 2021, wherein the company declared a final dividend of 35 cents per share, which will be paid on Monday, 24 May 2021. The dividend of 35 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 28 cents per ordinary share. International 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	18.25	Malawian kwacha per share
Namibia	35.00	Namibian cents per share
United Kingdom	1.707	GBP pence per share
Zimbabwe	194.99	RTGS cents per share

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

Malawi	52.1431	Malawian kwacha per Rand
Namibia	1.000	Namibian cents per Rand
United Kingdom	20.5016	Rand per Pound sterling
Zimbabwe	0.1795	Rand per RTGS dollar

The timetable released on the Stock Exchange News Service on 23 March 2021 remains unchanged.
