Notes

1. Members are entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend and to speak and vote on their behalf at the meeting. A shareholder may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the AGM provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that shareholder.

A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. A form of proxy which may be used to make such appointment and give proxy instructions accompanies this notice. If you do not have a form of proxy and believe that you should have one, or if you require additional forms, please contact the Company's registrars, Computershare Investor Services (Jersey) Limited on 0870 707 4040. Calls to this number are charged at up to 10p per minute depending on the service provider. The overseas number is +44 870 707 4040.

• 1. To be valid, the enclosed reply-paid form of proxy, together, if appropriate, with the power of attorney or the authority (if any) under which it is signed, or a notarially certified copy of such power of attorney or authority, must be deposited at the offices of Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol, BS99 6ZY not later than 9.00 am (CET, 8.00 am BST) on 13 May 2013.
• 1. Alternatively, shareholders may register the appointment of a proxy electronically by logging on to the website of www.eproxyappointment. com. Full details of the procedure are given on that website. Electronic proxy appointments must be received by Computershare no later than 9.00 am (CET, 8.00 am BST) on 13 May 2013.
• 1. The return of a completed form of proxy or any CREST Proxy Instruction (as described in paragraph 9 below) will not prevent a shareholder attending the AGM and voting in person if he/she wishes to do so.
• 1. Any member attending the meeting has the right to ask questions. The Company must cause to be answered any such question relating to the business being dealt with at the meeting and no such answer need be given if (a) to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation for the meeting or involve the disclosure of confidential information, (b) the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question, or (c) it is undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the meeting that the question be answered.
• 1. Any person to whom this notice is sent who is a person nominated in accordance with Article 131 of the Company's Articles of Association to enjoy information rights (a "Nominated Person") may, under an agreement between him/her and the shareholder by whom he/she was nominated, have a right to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the AGM. If a Nominated Person has no such proxy appointment right or does not wish to exercise it, he/she may, under any such agreement, have a right to give instructions to the shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights.
• 1. The statement of the rights of shareholders in relation to the appointment of proxies in paragraphs 1 to 3 above does not apply to Nominated Persons. The rights described in those paragraphs can only be exercised by shareholders of the Company.
• 1. Pursuant to Article 40 of the Companies (Uncertificated Securities) (Jersey) Order 1999, the Company specifies that to be entitled to attend and vote at the AGM (and for the purpose of the determination by the Company of the votes they may cast), shareholders must be registered in the register of members of the Company at 7.00 pm (CET, 6.00 pm BST) on 13 May 2013 (or, in the event of any adjournment, 7.00 pm (CET, 6.00 pm BST) on the date which is two days before the time of the adjourned meeting). Changes to the Register of Members after the relevant deadline shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the meeting.
• 1. As at 22 March 2013 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Notice) the Company's issued share capital consists of 603,191,249 ordinary shares, carrying one vote each. Therefore, the total voting rights in the Company as at 22 March 2013 are 603,191,249.
• (a) CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.
• (b) In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited's specifications, and must contain the information required for such instruction, as described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com/CREST). The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or is an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the Company's agent (ID 3RA50) by 9.00 am (CET, 8.00 am BST) on 13 May 2013. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Application Host) from which the Company's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.
• (c) CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors, or voting service providers should note that Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular message. Normal system timings and limitations will, therefore, apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member, or sponsored member, or has appointed a voting service provider, to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting system providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.
• (d) The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Article 34 of the Companies (Uncertificated Securities) (Jersey) Order 1999.
• 1. Under the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991, a body corporate may only appoint one corporate representative. A share owner which is a body corporate that wishes to allocate its votes to more than one person should use the proxy arrangements.
• 1. Addresses (including electronic addresses) in this document are included strictly for the purposes specified and not for any other purpose.
• 1. A copy of this notice, and other information regarding the AGM, can be found at www.informa.com.

Appendix 1

EXPLANATORY NOTES ON THE RESOLUTIONS TO THE NOTICE OF AGM

Resolution 1: Report and Accounts

The Directors are required by the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991 to present to the shareholders of the Company at a general meeting the reports of the directors and auditor, and the audited accounts for the year ended 31 December 2012.

Resolutions 2 to 8 inclusive: Re-election of Directors

The Company's Articles of Association provide that at each AGM, any Director then in office shall retire from office but shall be eligible for re-election. This is compliant with the UK Corporate Governance Code (issued in June 2010) recommendation that all Directors stand for annual re-election. Accordingly, all of the Directors will retire at the AGM and, being eligible, each of them seeks re-election.

In respect of each Director, the Board is satisfied, following formal evaluation, that each Director continues to be effective and to demonstrate commitment to his/her role. The Directors therefore unanimously recommend that each be re-elected as a Director of the Company.

Resolution 9: Election of Director

Under the Company's Articles of Association any Director appointed by the Board since the last AGM may only hold office until the date of the next AGM at which time the Director is required to stand for election by shareholders. The Board appointed Cindy Rose as a Non-Executive Director on 1 March 2013 and therefore this resolution seeks her election by shareholders.

Biographical details of each of the Directors standing for election or re-election are set out in Appendix 2.

Resolution 10: Directors' Remuneration Report

As a matter of accepted best corporate governance practice for a Company whose shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange, the Company is seeking shareholder approval at the AGM for the Directors' Remuneration Report for the previous financial year. The Directors' Remuneration Report is set out on pages 52 to 61 of the Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2012.

Resolution 11: Re-Appointment of Auditor

This resolution proposes the re-appointment of Deloitte LLP as auditor.

Resolution 12: Auditor's Remuneration

This resolution authorises the Directors to determine the remuneration of the auditor.

Resolution 13: Authority to Allot Shares

This resolution will give the Directors authority to allot relevant securities in accordance with the UK Association of British Insurers (the "ABI") Guidelines and Article 6 of the Company's Articles of Association:

• 1. up to a maximum nominal amount of £ 201,064 (representing one third of the total issued ordinary share capital as of 22 March 2013, being the latest practicable date before publication of this document) without restriction; and
• 1. the same amount again but only in respect of a rights issue.

In accordance with the ABI guidance, these authorities shall expire at the conclusion of the AGM in 2014. The Directors have no present intention of exercising these authorities for the purpose of allotting any further shares. All Directors wishing to remain in office will stand for re-election at the AGM in 2014 following the approval (if given) by shareholders of this resolution. As is stated in the Explanatory Note to resolutions 2 to 8, article 60(1) of the Company's Articles of Association requires the yearly re-election of all directors of the Company at the AGM.

As at 22 March 2013 (being the latest practicable date before the publication of this document) the Company does not hold any treasury shares.

Resolution 14: Disapplication of Pre-emption Rights

This resolution is proposed to authorise the Directors in accordance with Article 8 of the Company's Articles of Association to allot shares in connection with a rights issue or other preemptive issue for cash with such exclusions or other arrangements as the Board may deem necessary or expedient in relation to fractional entitlements or legal or practical problems under the laws of or requirements of any recognised regulatory body or any stock exchange in, any territory, and also to allot shares for cash up to an aggregate nominal value of £30,160 (being approximately 5 per cent. of the issued ordinary share capital at 22 March 2013, which is the latest practicable date before the publication of this document) on a pre-emptive basis.

This authority will also expire at the conclusion of the AGM in 2014. The Directors have no present intention of utilising this authority for the purpose of issuing any further shares. This authority will also cover the sale of treasury shares for cash.

In accordance with ABI guidelines, the Directors confirm that they do not intend to issue more than 7.5 per cent. of the total issued share capital on a non-pre-emptive basis in any rolling three-year period.

Appendix 1 continued

Resolution 15: To Authorise the Company to Purchase its Own Shares

The Company is authorised by Article 12 of the Company's Articles of Association to purchase its own shares. If passed, this resolution will grant the Company authority to buy its own shares in the market. The resolution limits the number of shares that may be purchased to 10 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital (excluding treasury shares, although the Company does not currently hold any) as at 22 March 2013, which is the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this document.

The price per ordinary share that the Company may pay is set at a minimum amount (excluding expenses) of 0.1p per ordinary share and a maximum amount (excluding expenses) of the higher of:

• 1. 5 per cent. above the average of the previous five business days' market values; and
• 1. the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent bid on the trading venue where the purchase is carried out.

This authority will only be exercised if market conditions make it advantageous to do so.

The Directors' present intention is that shares purchased pursuant to this authority (to the extent statutory requirements are met and provided any treasury shares held do not exceed 10 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital) will be held in treasury for future cancellation, sale for cash, or transfer to an employee share scheme, although they may be cancelled immediately on repurchase in the light of circumstances at the time. The effect of any cancellation would be to reduce the number of shares in issue. For most purposes, while held in treasury, shares are treated as if they have been cancelled (for example, they carry no voting rights and do not rank for dividends). The Directors will only make purchases under this authority if they believe that to do so would result in an increase in earnings per share for the remaining shareholders and is in the best interests of shareholders generally.

As at 22 March 2013, which is the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this document, the total number of options to subscribe for ordinary shares of 0.1p each in the Company was 4,001,649, representing 0.66 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company (excluding treasury shares) at that date. If the proposed market purchase authority were to be used in full and all of the repurchased shares were cancelled (but the Company's issued share capital otherwise remained unaltered), the total number of options to subscribe for ordinary shares of 0.1p each in the Company at that date would represent 0.74 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital (excluding treasury shares).
