NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES, CANADA, AUSTRALIA OR JAPAN OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL

Delta Lloyd N.V. ("Delta Lloyd") announces, in connection with its €650 million rights issue (the "Offering") of an aggregate of 227,567,943 new ordinary shares with a nominal value of € 0.20 each (the "Offer Shares"), the pricing and placement of the 8,754,166 Offer Shares that were issuable upon the exercise of transferable subscription entitlements ("Rights") but were not validly subscribed for during the exercise period that ended yesterday at 14:00 CET (the "Rump Shares"). Reference is made to today's press release regarding the take up of 96.15% of the aggregate Offer Shares through the exercised Rights and the subsequent offering of the Rump Shares (the "Rump Offering").

This morning, 8,754,166 Rump Shares were sold by way of private placements to eligible institutional and professional investors in the Netherlands, Belgium and certain other eligible jurisdictions at a price of € 4.10 per Rump Share. Goldman Sachs International, Barclays Bank PLC and Merrill Lynch International (the "Joint Bookrunners") led the Rump Offering.

Excess Amount, Closing and Settlement

The aggregate proceeds for the Rump Shares sold in the Rump Offering exceeded the aggregate issue price for such Rump Shares by € 1.25 per Rump Share (such amount, the "Excess Amount"). No selling expenses were deducted when determining the Excess Amount. Accordingly, each holder of a Right that was not exercised at the end of the exercise period will be entitled to receive € 1.25 in cash, for each unexercised Right reflected in such holder's securities account (the "Unexercised Rights Payment").

The Unexercised Rights Payments will be distributed as soon as practicable after the settlement date on 11 April 2016 (the "Settlement Date") and will be credited to those holders through the facilities of Euroclear Nederland. Payments will be made in euro only, without interest and after withholding of any applicable taxes.

Trading of the Offer Shares is expected to commence on Euronext Amsterdam and Euronext Brussels at 9:00 CET on or about 11 April 2016, barring unforeseen circumstances.

Upon settlement, the number of Delta Lloyd ordinary shares outstanding will be 455,135,886.
