Mondi Joint Chairman

Cyril Ramaphosa, joint chairman of Mondi Limited and Mondi plc, will be stepping
down at the conclusion of the Annual General Meetings on 3 May 2013.

Following his election as deputy president of South Africa’s ruling African National
Congress in December 2012, Cyril has reviewed his business commitments and has
now advised Mondi that he wishes to resign from his positions as joint chairman and
as a non-executive director at the Annual General Meetings of Mondi Limited and
Mondi plc on 3 May 2013.

Anne Quinn, senior independent director, supported by the DLC nominations
committee, will immediately start the process of seeking a successor to Cyril.

David Williams, joint chairman, said: ‘We would like to thank Cyril for his significant
contribution to the Mondi Group. He has helped guide Mondi through its initial years
of listing and played an important role in providing constructive counsel particularly
on issues specific to the South African business environment.’
