2 OLD MUTUAL INVESTMENT GROUP ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTS Alternative Investments is one of the largest alternative investment managers in Africa, with assets under management of approximately R50 billion (US$5 billion) as at October We manage investments in private equity, infrastructure, mezzanine debt and a range of impact funds. OUR VALUE PROPOSITION n We build capabilities that generate investment outcomes with higher returns than traditional asset classes or with lower correlation to traditional asset classes, which results in diversification benefits for our clients portfolios. n We leverage our respected brand, depth of experience and expertise as well as our extensive network of strategic relationships to: n Produce attractive deal flow n Execute projects professionally and timeously n Continuously add value n Focus on sustainability. n We have created a flexible, free-thinking environment for our team, who are strongly incentivised to add value to our clients. This creativity is securely underpinned by a structured and disciplined investment process that seeks to ensure consistent returns. n Our investment activities are synergistic in that we leverage a shared operating platform, distribution capability and focus on growth in Africa as well as learning from others. Building resonant investment teams is more art than science. By defining appropriate autonomous decision-making rights, Old Mutual Investment Group s independent investment boutiques are intended to allow this creative process to be pursued, insulated from the corporate drama that can often be present in large companies. As such, teams are able to single-mindedly focus on delivering exceptional investment outcomes. Each boutique s prosperity is inextricably linked to meeting client expectations and building investment outcomes that add value to client portfolios. This, we would hope, results in a virtuous circle of great teams building differentiated outcomes that exceed client expectations.

4 INFRASTRUCTURE As Africa s oldest investor in infrastructure equity, and one of the largest, we originate deals across the African continent through the IDEAS Managed Fund and through funds managed by African Infrastructure Investment Managers (AIIM), our joint venture with the Macquarie Group. Our Infrastructure teams specialise in originating, structuring, developing and executing infrastructure investment transactions as well as managing these assets over the long term. The team has over 85 years of combined investment experience and an impressive depth and breadth of skills. Infrastructure assets have low correlations to other asset classes offering institutional investors an attractive diversified source of equity return over the long term. In addition, the assets have strong CPI protection characteristics and stable projected cash flows. Our focus is on growing our investors wealth, while providing them with the valuable opportunity to actively contribute towards creating a more prosperous, sustainable South Africa. The inherent nature of fixed investment projects is that they are capital and labour intensive during development. Our infrastructure investments serve as great engines of employment and skills development, as well as providing an enabling platform on which other economic activity can be based. For example, our investment in toll-road infrastructure provides access to ports for the import and export of manufactured goods. While infrastructure investments are vital for economic growth and have tangible social and environmental impacts, we only target those investments with potential to deliver strong long-term returns. The IDEAS Managed Fund invests in: n Economic infrastructure (roads and railways) n Social infrastructure (housing and public private partnerships) n Renewable energy infrastructure (solar, wind and hydrogeneration projects). The fund has made a significant investment into the Government s Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement programme, participating in the construction and operation of projects in excess of MW. The projects hold long-term power purchase agreements with Eskom. JURIE SWART HEAD: INFRASTRUCTURE 4

5 PRIVATE EQUITY We are one of the leading private equity managers in South Africa, managing private equity assets on behalf of Old Mutual and thirdparty investors. Since 2004 we have successfully invested over R6.8 billion in 23 direct investments and returned in excess of R13 billion to investors (as at June 2013). Our two lines of business are: OLD MUTUAL PRIVATE EQUITY DIRECT INVESTMENTS, where we invest directly in private equity investments; and OLD MUTUAL PRIVATE EQUITY FUNDS OF FUNDS, where we invest in a spread of premier private equity managers. These investments provide retail as well as institutional investors with more affordable access to the private equity asset class. In our direct investments business, we have invested in many of the top deals (by value) in South Africa, including Pepkor, Life Healthcare, Consol, Actom, Idwala, Tourvest and Savcio. Old Mutual Private Equity Fund of Funds launched its first investment product in April 2006 to make the private equity asset class more accessible to retail as well as institutional investors. We now manage four funds: Old Mutual Multi-Manager Private Equity Fund 1, Old Mutual Multi-Manager Private Equity Fund 2, Old Mutual Private Equity Secondary Fund and Old Mutual Multi- Manager Private Equity Fund 3. The core of our team has over 80 years of combined investment experience and an impressive depth and breadth of skills. Our focus has been to partner with other parties in investing in top quality businesses with strong management teams. Based on the Riscura SAVCA industry survey, Old Mutual Private Equity (OMPE) continues to deliver competitive long-term returns against its peers and the JSE. 30 SA PRIVATE EQUITY SURVEY ANNUALISED RETURNS TO 30 JUNE % Globally, private equity has a sustained long-term track record of outperforming listed equity markets.

The international private equity industry is in a mature stage, with the added benefits of proven portfolio management skills and relative transparency of underlying investments. The investment objective of our two Funds of Funds is to maximise capital appreciation over the long term by investing in a select group of portfolio funds, managed by reputable, independent, top-performing private equity managers. We have a team of four professionals dedicated to identifying opportunities in the private equity markets outside of South Africa. They have an average of over 24 years of alternative direct investment and fund selection experience and manage over R6.8 billion in assets. JAMES REGOUT HEAD: INTERNATIONAL PRIVATE EQUITY 5

6 DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FUNDS The Development Impact Fund team members share the view that Socially Responsible Investments (SRIs) are fundamental to national economic transformation and define SRIs as those that provide investors with commercial returns while delivering positive social and developmental impacts on scale. Our funds invest over R11 billion in assets/areas where gaps or backlogs in social infrastructure have not been adequately addressed, with a primary focus on developing affordable housing and providing access to quality education through training teachers as well as upgrading/building new school infrastructure. The knockon effects of these initiatives are tangible economic development and job creation. Our team comprises high-performance, entrepreneurial individuals who have in excess of 140 years cumulative experience in the investment field, and who are passionate about delivering on our mandates. Our philosophy is to partner with businesses that are experts, with proven track records in their respective fields. This reduces investment risk for our investors, has a positive impact on investment returns through greater efficiency and lower costs, and allows us to provide an end product that is affordable to our target market. SCHOOLS AND EDUCATION INVESTMENT IMPACT FUND OF SOUTH AFRICA (SCHOOLS INVESTMENT FUND) R1.2 BILLION (CLOSED) Urgent interventions are required to improve the quality of education in South Africa. There is a pressing need to increase the amount of schooling that children receive. In an effort to play a role in improving the quality of education, investors have established the R1.2 billion Schools Investment Fund. The primary focus of the Schools Investment Fund is on independent low-fee paying schools, with a dual objective to finance infrastructure and education-related requirements and deliver a commercially acceptable return. The fund partners with experts in education and has agreements in place with Curro Holdings for nine Meridian independent schools across South Africa and with BASA for a Soweto-based junior and high school. Our Schools Grant Fund seeks donations towards bursaries for children attending these schools. Our two key development impact funds are: HOUSING IMPACT FUND OF SOUTH AFRICA (HIFSA) R9.15 BILLION (CLOSED) The fund finances the construction of affordable homes for sale and rent, as well as providing housing loans and rental accommodation for families and students, helping fill the serious gap in the market between government-provided housing and those who have access to bank finance to purchase their own homes. HIFSA is currently the largest single source of development funding in the affordable market, having provided more money than South Africa s big four commercial banks combined since One of HIFSA s investments, Savanna City has recently broken ground on what will be South Africa s largest ever housing development, comprising close to housing units. By way of comparison, the suburb of Pinelands in Cape Town has less that housing units. CHRISTINE GLOVER HEAD: DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FUNDS

Bi-annual equity valuations Moderate to low relative to conventional balanced funds The Infrastructural, Developmental and Environmental Assets (IDEAS) Managed Fund is South Africa s largest domestic infrastructure equity fund. It is managed by the Old Mutual Investment Group and jointly marketed by Old Mutual and Unity Incorporation (representing a group of eight trade unions). INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The fund aims to delivering a commercially acceptable return of CPI + 7% over rolling three-year periods. To achieve its objective, the fund invests in economic infrastructure, social infrastructure and renewable energy. ECONOMIC INFRASTRUCTURE SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE RENEWABLE ENERGY Toll Roads Toll Bridges Power and Gas Rail Affordable Housing Office Accommodation (PPP) Prisons Wind Farms Solar Plants While infrastructure investments are vital for economic growth and have tangible social and environmental impacts, the fund only targets those investments with potential to deliver strong long-term returns. Since inception, it has consistently generated above-target returns. INVESTMENT STRATEGY Our infrastructure team specialises in originating, structuring and executing investment transactions, as well as managing these assets over the long term. We take great care to ensure that the fund remains diversified across its investments, and only consider investments that allow for thorough due diligence and the acquisition of a significant stake. Fundamental to our investment strategy is forming strong partnerships with government departments, financial institutions and prominent operators to invest in a variety of infrastructure projects. While the main focus of the fund is on South African investment opportunities, it has also been recognised that the development of the greater Southern African Development Community (SADC) region, especially in the immediate neighbouring states, has a positive impact on the South African economy. The fund s investment strategy therefore makes specific allowance (to a maximum of 25%) for SADC regional investments. SUITABLE INVESTORS The IDEAS Managed Fund is available to institutional investors who wish to invest in economic, social and renewable energy infrastructure. Infrastructure assets have low correlations to other asset classes offering an attractive alternative source of equity return over the long term. The fund is suited to those investors who have an understanding of the characteristics of the asset class, including the risks and liquidity restrictions. There are no investment guarantees and there is a risk of capital loss. Investors should have a long-term investment horizon. FUND STRUCTURE The IDEAS Managed Fund is a unitised pooled portfolio and is structured using a fund of funds approach.

9 OLD MUTUAL MULTI-MANAGER PRIVATE EQUITY FUND 3 FOR INDIVIDUAL AND INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS KEY FEATURES Fund size R600 million capacity Launch date 01 July 2013 Fund manager Investment vehicle Fund target Old Mutual Investment Group Alternative Investments Life policy available through the Old Mutual Wealth Life Wrapped Investment CPI + 10% p.a. Minimum investment R Fund term 10.5 years (31 December 2023) INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE This is a high-risk fund that aims to aggressively outperform inflation. It is invested in underlying private equity funds that, in turn, are predominantly invested in companies not listed on a public stock exchange. Through their low correlation with other asset classes, private equity funds have the potential to outperform traditional asset classes over the long term and to provide diversification for the sophisticated investor. The key benefit of this private equity fund is the quality of the underlying private equity managers and its diversification across vintages (transaction years), investment styles and geographies. This is an aggressive fund with a risk rating of 5 (based on Old Mutual s rating scale of 1-5). INVESTMENT STRATEGY Old Mutual Multi-Manager Private Equity Fund 3 (OMMMPEF3) is designed to have exposure to a combination of high-quality private equity funds, diversified across vintages, investment styles and geographic regions. This provides investors with exposure to a portfolio of some of the premier private equity funds in South Africa. FUND ALLOCATION Old Mutual Private Equity Fund II 18% Old Mutual Private Equity Fund IV 23% Ethos Fund VI 23% Actis Fund III 18% Capitalworks Fund II 9% Additional managers 9% SUITABLE INVESTORS OMMMPEF3 is available to individuals, retirement funds, companies, trusts and tax-exempt institutions. It is suited to sophisticated investors who have an understanding of the characteristics of the asset class. It is a high-risk, and an aggressive investment because of the nature of the underlying investments as well as its ability to use leverage. The fund is available via the Old Mutual Wealth Life Wrapped Investment. No investment guarantees are offered and there is a risk of capital loss. Investors should have a long-term investment horizon and understand the liquidity restrictions associated with both the fund and the lifewrapped investment vehicle. It is not advisable for an investor to have a large proportion of their investment portfolio concentrated in private equity. FUND STRUCTURE Investor limitations Fund leverage Subscription period Liquidity Valuation and pricing FEE STRUCTURE Asset management fee Carried interest (performance fee) Financial planner fees** Administration fees** Product management fee R25 million limit per retail investor (due to limited capacity) Targeted to remain below 50% of the value of the underlying assets at all times.

Transfers from the early subscription account to OMMMPEF3 units will take place at quarter-end and the end of the month after quarter-end. Investor-elected switches from the OMMMPEF3 into a money market fund are allowed on a quarterly basis and limited to the original investment amount. Transactions are subject to a charge of 7.5% of the amount switched. Switches of over R10 million will be effected over four quarters.

Current legislation can be summarised as follows: One loan and one surrender from the contract are permitted in the first five years, up to a maximum of 100% of the original investment plus 5% growth per year. The underlying private equity investments are valued on a quarterly basis. The unit price of the OMMMPEF3 will be updated on a monthly basis and will apply from the first business day of the new month. The underlying private equity funds charge an annual management fee of 2% (excl. VAT) of the cost price of the capital committed to the fund.

It also provides significant diversification benefits for the institutional investor.

The fund s target market is households that earn less than R a year. The estimated school-fee range is primarily from R4 000 to R a year.

The investment takes place over a long period (10 to 15 years). The fund can invest anywhere in South Africa. 13

The opinions expressed herein are not intended to serve as authoritative investment advice and should not be used in substitution for the exercise of own judgement.

Past performance or fund benchmark performance is not necessarily a guide to the future and investors may not get back the full amount invested.

Exchange rates may also cause the value of underlying overseas investments to go down or up. It should be noted that investments within these funds may not be readily marketable.
