Notice of availability

The Company communicates with UK shareholders by means of our website. The Annual Report and Notice of the Annual General Meeting can be accessed directly on the Company's website: www.prudentialplc.com/investors/ reports/2020

Using website communications will be of benefit to those shareholders who do not wish to be burdened with long documents, and to the Company, as it represents a considerable saving in printing and distribution costs. In addition, reducing unnecessary printing will benefit the environment. If you wish to change your instructions to receive future notifications by email rather than post, you can register at www.shareview.co.uk

Paper copies of shareholder communications can be requested by calling the Company’s registrar, Equiniti Limited ('Equiniti') on 0371 384 2035 and Textel 0371 384 2255 (for hard of hearing). Lines are open from 8.30am to 5.30pm (London time), Monday to Friday. International shareholders should call +44 121 415 7026.

Electronic proxy appointment

In those countries where electronic voting is made available, a proxy may also be appointed electronically.

An electronic proxy appointment may be made by logging on to Equiniti’s website www.sharevote.co.uk

Shareholders will need their Voting ID, Task ID and shareholder reference number, the three sets of numbers printed at the top of the Form of Proxy. Full details of the procedures are given on the website. Alternatively, if you have already registered with Equiniti’s online portfolio service Shareview, you can submit your proxy by logging on to your portfolio at www.shareview.co.uk, using your user ID and password. Once logged in simply click ‘View’ on the ‘My Investments’ page, click on the link to vote then follow the on screen instructions.

Electronic voting through CREST

If you are a CREST member, you may use the CREST electronic proxy appointment service. The CREST Proxy Instruction must be properly authenticated in accordance with CREST specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions as set out in the CREST manual. The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or 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 our agent (ID RA19) by the latest time(s) for receipt of proxy appointments.

Important

Whichever method you choose, instructions or Form of Proxy must be received by the Company’s registrar no later than 11.00am London time (6.00pm Hong Kong/Singapore time) on Tuesday 11 May 2021. Please note that any instruction sent in electronic form found to contain a computer virus will not be accepted.

If you submit more than one valid proxy appointment, the appointment received last before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take precedence.

Further details are included in the Notice of Annual General Meeting 2021.

This form is for use by shareholders who hold Prudential shares listed on the London or Hong Kong Stock Exchanges.

Please watch the Company’s website, regulatory news and other published notifications for any further updates in relation to the Annual General Meeting.
