  1. You can register your appointment of a proxy and your voting instruction, either online as outlined in note 2 below or by returning your completed proxy form to Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS99 6ZY. A prepaid envelope, which will not require a stamp if posted in the UK, has been provided for your convenience.
  2. You can register your appointment of a proxy and voting instruction online by visiting www.investorcentre.co.uk/eproxy. For quick access to the website, please scan the Quick Response code above into your smartphone and you will automatically be directed to the website. You will require your Voting ID, Control Number and your Shareholder Reference Number, each of which can be found overleaf. Please note that any electronic communication sent to Aviva or Computershare that is found to contain a computer virus will not be accepted.
  3. Whether you register your instruction online or by post, your instruction must be received by no later than 11am on Tuesday 7 May 2013.
  4. You will find further details of the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM in the Notice of AGM, which is either enclosed or can be obtained from www.aviva.com/agm. Alternatively, you can contact Computershare, using the contact details provided opposite, to request a copy.
  5. The 'Vote withheld' option is provided to enable you to abstain on any particular resolution. However, a 'Vote withheld' is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes 'For' or 'Against' a resolution.
  6. You are entitled to appoint one or more proxies of your choice. To appoint someone other than the Chairman, please cross out 'the Chairman of the AGM' and insert the name of your proxy in the space provided. Your proxy does not need to be a shareholder but must attend the AGM in person. Please indicate how you wish your proxy to vote on a poll by placing a cross or other mark in the appropriate boxes. Your proxy must vote in the way that you indicate. Please note that if you do not give an instruction, your proxy may vote as he or she wishes on any resolution and on any further or amended resolutions. Your proxy may also vote as he or she wishes on any other business which may properly come before the AGM.
  7. You may appoint more than one proxy, provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise rights attached to different shares. To do this you may obtain additional proxy forms from Computershare, using the contact details provided opposite or you may copy this form. Please indicate next to the proxy holder's name the number of shares in relation to which they are authorised to act as your proxy. Please also indicate, by ticking the box provided, if the proxy instruction is one of multiple instructions being given. Please sign all proxy forms and return them together in the same enclosed prepaid envelope.
  8. The return of a completed proxy form or any CREST Proxy Instruction will not prevent you from attending the AGM and voting in person if you wish to do so. In this event, your attendance at the AGM will cancel a previous proxy instruction.
  9. Please ensure that you sign the proxy form and initial any alterations. If someone other than you signs the proxy form, it must be returned with either the letter of authority, Power of Attorney or a certified copy of the Power of Attorney authorising him or her to sign on your behalf. If the holder is a corporation, the proxy form must be signed either under seal or under the hand of a duly authorised officer or attorney of that company.
  10. If your shareholding is held jointly, the votes of the senior holder who votes, either by proxy or in person, will be accepted to the exclusion of the votes from the other joint holders. For this purpose, seniority for the joint holding is determined by the order in which the shareholders' names appear on Aviva's Register of Members.
  11. To elect to receive an email notification when shareholder communications are available to view and download on the Aviva website, instead of receiving hard copy shareholder communications, simply provide your email address in the box overleaf and return the duly completed proxy form to Computershare or visit www.aviva.com/ ecomms for more details of how to register online.
