Shareholders who are unsure of what action to take should obtain independent financial advice. Share values may go down as well as up, which may result in a shareholder receiving less than he or she originally invested.

To the extent that this statement is a financial promotion for the share dealing service provided by Computershare Investor Services PLC, it has been approved by Computershare Investor Services PLC for the purpose of section 21(2)(b) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 only. Computershare Investor Services PLC is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority. Where this has been received in a country where the provision of such a service would be contrary to local laws or regulations, this should be treated as information only.

Unclaimed demutualisation benefits

Policyholders of the South African Mutual Life Assurance Society (the Society) who qualified for free shares in the Company when the Society demutualised in May 1999, but who did not claim their shares by the closure date of the Unclaimed Shares Trusts (31 August 2006), should contact the Trust Administration and Confirmation Department on 0861 61 9061 (a South African number) or on +27 (0)21 509 8383 between 8.30 a.m. and 4.30 p.m. (South African time) on Mondays to Fridays, excluding public holidays. The Company has indicated that it will continue until 31 August 2009 to settle valid claims to demutualisation benefi ts on an ex-gratia basis by reference to the cash value at 31 August 2006 of the shares to which the policyholder would have been entitled.

Strate

Since January 2002, all transactions in the Company's shares on the JSE have been required to be settled electronically through Strate, and share certificates are no longer good for delivery in respect of such transactions.

The Company wrote to certificated shareholders on its South African branch register in October 2001 to inform them of these changes and of the courses of action available to them. The Company also wrote separately to certifi cated shareholders on the Namibian section of its principal register in January 2002 to explain the impact of Strate. These included participating in Issuer-Sponsored Nominee Programmes to dematerialise (in the case of South Africa) or immobilise (in the case of Namibia) their previously certifi cated shareholdings in the Company. Shareholders who have any enquiries about these programmes or about the effect of Strate on their holdings in the Company should contact Computershare Investor Services in Johannesburg on +27 (0)861 100 940 or +27 (0)11 870 8211.

There are also a number of downloadable forms from this site such as change of address, dividend mandate and stock transfer forms.

Electronic communications and electronic proxy appointment

If you would like to receive future communications from the Company by email, please log on to our website, www.oldmutual.com, select the "Shareholder Information" section, click on "Electronic Communications" and then follow the instructions for registration of your details. In order to register, you will need your shareholder reference number, which can be found on the payment advice notice or tax voucher accompanying your last dividend payment or notification. The number is also printed on forms of proxy (but not voting instruction forms) for the Annual General Meeting.

Before you register, you will be asked to agree to the Terms and Conditions for Electronic Communications with Shareholders. It is important that you read these Terms and Conditions carefully, as they set out the basis on which electronic communications will be sent to you.

You should bear in mind that, in accessing documents electronically, you will incur the cost of online time. Any election to receive documents electronically will generally remain in force until you contact the Company's Registrars (via the online address set out earlier in this section of the Report or otherwise) to terminate or change such election.

The use of the electronic communications facility described above is entirely voluntary. If you wish to continue to receive communications from the Company by post, then you do not need to take any action.

Electronic proxy appointment is available for this year's Annual General Meeting. This enables proxy votes to be submitted electronically, as an alternative to fi lling out and posting a form of proxy. Further details are set out on the form of proxy. Electronic submission is not, however, available for voting instruction forms.
