EXTENSION OF OLD MUTUAL SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAMME

Old Mutual announces that the share repurchase programme announced by the Company
on 11 March 2019 has been extended by R500 million, bringing the maximum
consideration of the share repurchase programme to R2.5 billion (the “Extended
Programme”).

As previously, the Extended Programme will be effected in accordance with the
General Authority received by way of a shareholder resolution passed at the AGM,
held on 6 March 2018, allowing the Company to repurchase up to 247 102 418
ordinary shares, equivalent to 5% of the issued share capital of the Company.
OML has approval from the Prudential Authority for the Extended Programme.

The OML Board believes that OML is trading at a discount to its intrinsic value
and is of the view that a share repurchase programme will deliver longer term
incremental value to shareholders. The management team remains committed to
following a disciplined trading approach under the share repurchase programme
and will only repurchase shares to the      extent that market conditions are
favourable. The purpose of the repurchase programme is to reduce the share
capital of the Company.


The Repurchased Shares shall be cancelled as issued shares and will revert to
authorised but unissued share capital status.
