Further information provided by Nedbank Group Limited in respect of the holdings of certain non-South African shareholders, following the unbundling of the majority of Nedbank shares held by Old Mutual limited.

Nedbank Group Limited ("Nedbank") have published on their website further information to provide assistance to non-South African shareholders who received shares following the unbundling of the majority of Old Mutual's shareholding in Nedbank. We set out this information below, for the benefit of certain overseas Old Mutual shareholders who are now also Nedbank shareholders, and who may be unfamiliar with the South African requirements for the holding of shares in Nedbank. Nedbank shares are listed on the JSE in South Africa and the NSE in Namibia.

"Note to Holders of Old Mutual Limited ("OML") shares on the United Kingdom Register who obtained Nedbank Group Limited ("NGL") shares pursuant to the unbundling by OML of a majority of its NGL share.

Allocation of entitlements

Eligible OML shareholders who held OML shares on the United Kingdom Register (UK shareholders) as at the Record date for the Unbundling, received NGL entitlements in the SA Nominee called Pacific Custodians Nominees (RF) Pty Ltd ('PCN') on Monday 15 October 2018.

The entitlements to the unbundled NGL shares are held in uncertificated form by the SA Nominee. NGL shares may only be traded in uncertificated form on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and only through South African brokers or through a custody account with a South African Central Securities Depository Participant ('CSDP').

Equiniti Limited (OML's UK registrar) in the United Kingdom will be sending confirmations of holdings in NGL to affected UK shareholders by post to their registered address on 26 October 2018. The confirmations will contain the shareholder reference number and the number of NGL shares that they have received in the Unbundling.

The SA Nominee is a Strate approved nominee owned by Link Investor Services Pty Ltd ('LIS'). As LIS is a CSDP and an accountable institution in terms of the Financial Intelligence Centre Act, 38 of 2001 ('FICA') it is required to conduct Know Your Client ('KYC') procedures on all clients prior to the NGL shares being sold or transferred.

UK shareholders who wish to sell their NGL shares or who wish to transfer their NGL shares to their CSDP in South Africa are required to provide their FICA documentation to LIS, thereafter they will be able to issue an instruction to sell or transfer shares. UK Shareholders can contact LIS during office hours between 08:00am to 16:30pm (South African time), Monday to Friday on +27 (0)86 140 0110/ +27 (0)11 029 0253 or enquiries may be sent to UKinvestors@linkmarketservices.co.za. 

Shareholders who manage their investment through a nominee or stockbroker, where the registered holder is that nominee or stockbroker, should contact them for their entitlement notices as the underlying beneficiary and instruct them to request a transfer of their beneficial entitlement to their CSDP which could be PCN in South Africa or to sell their beneficial entitlements through LIS.

LIS's standard dealing fees will apply in respect of share sales. Shareholders can obtain the fee structure by contacting LIS.

The frequently asked questions below are provided to assist UK shareholders who acquired NGL shares pursuant to the Unbundling of NGL by OML.

Will UK shareholders receive share certificates for the unbundled NGL shares?
