EXTENSION OF THE NEDBANK EYETHU OWNERSHIP PLAN
Applicants to the Nedbank Eyethu Ownership Plan are referred to the
announcements released on the Securities Exchange News Services ("SENS") and
published in the press on 15 August 2005 and the prospectus dated 15 August 2005
wherein the closing date of the Nedbank Eyethu Ownership Plan was set out as
15:00 on Tuesday, 15 November 2005.
Significant numbers of applications are currently being delivered and posted to
Nedbank on a daily basis. Consequently, the closing date for the Nedbank Eyethu
Ownership Plan has been extended for two weeks to allow for late applications to
be submitted and processed.
Applicants are informed that, should the Nedbank Eyethu Ownership Plan be
oversubscribed, applications received after Tuesday, 15 November 2005 will be
proportionately reduced, while applications received prior to Tuesday, 15
November 2005 will receive their full allocations.
Applicants may therefore deliver their completed application forms to any
Nedbank or Old Mutual Bank branch or alternatively send it to Nedbank in an
envelope marked "Nedbank Group Limited: Nedbank Eyethu Ownership Plan" either by
post (PO Box 1144, Johannesburg, 2000) or by hand (135 Rivonia Road, Sandown,
2196) by the extended closing date, being 15:00 on Wednesday, 30 November 2005.
