Applications have been made by Old Mutual plc (the "Company") to the UK Listing

"shares") of 10 pence each in the Company and for trading of the shares on the
London Stock Exchange. It is expected that admission will be granted on 29

share issue have been made to the Namibian, Malawian and Zimbabwean stock
