FINALISATION INFORMATION REGARDING THE DECLARED DIVIDEND

Shareholders are advised that at the 36th Annual General Meeting of Oando
held at 10:00 Nigerian Time on 25 July 2013, shareholders of the Company
approved the declaration and payment of a 75kobo (Seventy-five Kobo) per
share dividend to holders of ordinary shares whose names appear in the
Company’s register of members of Nigeria as at close of business on the 5th
July 2013 and for members of South Africa as at close of business on the 8th
of August 2013. The dividend will be paid on or about the 30th of August
2013 subject to Nigerian withholding tax of 10%.


Accordingly, the following finalisation information is provided in respect
of the dividend to South African shareholders:

The gross dividend of 75 kobo per share has been declared.

Shareholders are advised that a Nigerian withholding tax of 10% is payable
by all shareholders on the dividend. Accordingly the dividend net of
withholding tax is 67.5 Kobo per ordinary share.

South African shareholders who are not exempt from South African Dividend
Withholding Tax (“dividend tax”) will be required to pay the 15% dividend
tax less the 10% Nigerian withholding tax making the net dividend payable to
those shareholders of 63.75 kobo per ordinary share.

The issued share capital of Oando at the finalisation date is 6,822,354,414
ordinary shares.
