(“Old Mutual Insure” or the “Company”)

Old Mutual Insure acquires specialist insurer Genric

Old Mutual Insure is pleased to announce the signing of a Share Purchase Agreement that will see Old Mutual
Insure acquire 100% of Genric Insurance Company Limited (Genric). Genric is a licensed non-life insurer that
partners with and holds ordinary equity interests in a number of specialist underwriting management agencies,
start-up businesses and insure-tech innovators.

This transaction brings Old Mutual Insure not only an ability to rapidly test and scale new product ideas but also
access to a new customer base in accident and health, medical insurance, as well as other niche insurance such
as value-added products, cash in transit, equine, marine, travel, taxi, heavy commercial vehicles, and shack
insurance.

The acquisition is likely to enhance Old Mutual Insure’s customer service experience by including value-added
services offerings (VAPs) offered by Genric, develop more innovative products, and give it access to new markets
through low-cost products. Genric has demonstrated its ability to identify and incubate start-up businesses.

The Transaction is still subject to regulatory approvals, including Prudential Authority and Competition
Commission approvals.
