On 19 July 2012, Old Mutual plc (“Old Mutual”) announced its invitations (the “Offers”) to the holders of its

“Series”) to tender their Securities for repurchase by Old Mutual for cash for aggregate consideration of up to
£450,000,000 (or such lesser amount as Old Mutual may determine, in its sole discretion).

The Offers were made on the terms, and subject to the conditions, contained in the tender offer memorandum
dated 19 July 2012 (the “Tender Offer Memorandum”) prepared by Old Mutual, and were subject to the offer and

accordance with the terms set out in the Tender Offer Memorandum.

Old Mutual hereby announces that:
