   INTERIM DIVIDEND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2014 (NO. 28): CURRENCY
   CONVERSIONS

   In its interim results announcement for the six months ended 30 June 2014 published on 7 August
   2014, Old Mutual plc (the “Company”) announced an interim dividend of 2.45p per share (the “Interim
   Dividend”) or its equivalent in other currencies of payment using exchange rates prevailing on 11
   September 2014. The Company also announced that shareholders on the South African, Zimbabwe
   and Malawi branch registers and the Namibian section of the principal register would be paid the local
   currency cash equivalents of the dividend (subject to deduction of local dividend withholding taxes,
   where applicable) under dividend access trust (or, in South Africa, dividend access company)
   arrangements established in each country and those shareholders who hold their shares through
   Euroclear Sweden AB, the Swedish central securities depository, would be paid the equivalent of the
   dividend in Swedish kronor. In the case of Zimbabwe, the local currency equivalent would be
   denominated in US dollars.

   The currency equivalents of the Interim Dividend have now been established and are as follows:


   South Africa      43.62740    South African cents per share
   Malawi              15.71     Malawi kwacha per share
   Namibia           43.62740    Namibian cents per share
   Zimbabwe            3.98      US cents per share
   Sweden              0.28      Swedish kronor per share


   These currency equivalents have been calculated using the following exchange rates:


   South Africa      17.8071    Rand/£
   Malawi             641.10    Malawi kwacha/£
   Namibia           17.8071    Namibian dollars/£
   Zimbabwe           1.6230    US dollars/£
   Sweden            11.5561    Swedish kronor/£


Dividend Tax will be withheld from the amount of the gross dividend of 43.62740 South African cents
per share paid to South African shareholders at the rate of 15% unless a shareholder qualifies for
exemption. After the Dividend Tax has been withheld, the net dividend will be 37.08329 South African
cents per share. The Company had a total of 4,905,640,582 shares in issue at the date on which the
dividend was announced, 7 August 2014. In South Africa, in respect of the Company’s dividend
access share arrangements, the dividend will be distributed by Old Mutual Dividend Access Company
(Pty) Limited, a South African company with tax registration number 9460/144/14/1. No Secondary
Tax on Companies (STC) credits will be used for the payment of the dividend.
The record date for this dividend payment is the close of business on 26 September 2014 for all the
exchanges where the Company’s shares are listed. The last day to trade cum-dividend will be 19
September 2014 on the JSE and on the Namibian, Zimbabwe and Malawi Stock Exchanges and 23
September 2014 for the London Stock Exchange. The shares will trade ex-dividend from the opening
of business on 22 September 2014 on the JSE and the Namibian, Zimbabwe and Malawi Stock
