The Ordinary Resolutions for approval of the Remuneration Policy and
Remuneration Implementation Report each received support from a majority of
shareholders. However, neither achieved the 75% shareholder support threshold
applicable under the non-binding advisory voting framework in place at the
time of distribution of the Notice of AGM. Consequently the board of directors
of Old Mutual, through its Remuneration Committee, will engage with
shareholders to better understand concerns raised. The Company notes that both
the Remuneration Policy (at 68,39%) and Remuneration Implementation Report (at
70,72%) received shareholder support in excess of the threshold required for
approval by ordinary resolution under the Companies Amendment Act 16 of 2024.

Further details will be announced on the Stock Exchange News Service of the
JSE Limited in due course regarding an invitation to dissenting shareholders
to engage with Old Mutual and the manner and timing of such engagement.

This announcement is also available on the Old Mutual website
at www.oldmutual.com (http://www.oldmutual.com/) .
