Sanlam Group appoints Ian Kirk as Deputy Group Chief Executive

Sanlam is pleased to announce that the Group has appointed Mr Ian Kirk as its Deputy Group
Chief Executive (CE) with effect from 1 January 2015.

Kirk is currently the CE of Santam Limited (“Santam”) and hence forms part of the Group Executive
Committee of Sanlam. The process to appoint a new CE for Santam will commence shortly.

As the Deputy Group CE of Sanlam, Kirk will be responsible for the operational business entities
and will report to the Sanlam Group CE, Dr Johan van Zyl.

The position of Deputy Group CE is part of Sanlam’s succession planning strategy and
implementation of a smooth leadership transition. The board of directors of Sanlam (Board) intends
to appoint Kirk as the Group CE when Dr Van Zyl retires at the end of 2015.

Kirk, a Chartered Accountant (SA), joined the Sanlam Group in May 2006 as CE: Strategy and
Projects. He has been at the helm of Santam since June 2007 when he was appointed Chief
Executive.

The Board wishes Ian well in this new position and looks forward to his valuable contribution.
