Explanatory notes

The formal business of the Meeting will begin with a resolution to lay before shareholders the 2022 Annual Report. Shareholders will have the opportunity to put questions about the 2022 Annual Report and other business to be conducted at the Meeting to the Directors before this resolution is voted on.

The 2022 Annual Report is available to view on the Company's website www.prudentialplc.com

Directors' Remuneration Report

Resolution 2. To approve the Directors' Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 December 2022.

Explanatory notes

As in previous years, shareholders will have the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on the Directors' Remuneration Report (excluding the Directors' Remuneration Policy which is included under Resolution 3) for the year ended 31 December 2022.

The Directors' Remuneration Report (excluding the Directors' Remuneration Policy) is set out in full on pages 228 to 279 of the 2022 Annual Report. The 2022 Annual Report is available to view on the Company's website www.prudentialplc.com

Directors' Remuneration Policy

Resolution 3. To approve the revised Directors' Remuneration Policy.

Explanatory notes

Shareholders are invited to approve the revised Directors' Remuneration Policy contained in the 2022 Annual Report on pages 261 to 275, which sets out the Company's forward-looking policy on Directors' remuneration. The Remuneration Committee Chair has highlighted the key changes from the current policy adopted by shareholders in 2020 in the Chair's statement set out in the Directors' Remuneration Report, also contained in the Annual Report, on page 232. The statement also refers to the extensive consultation with large shareholders and shareholder representatives in determining the revised policy.

The proposed changes are intended to equip the Group to recruit and retain critical executive talent in our key markets, given the Group's exclusive focus on Asia and Africa. If the Directors' Remuneration Policy is approved by shareholders, it will take immediate effect and the Company will not be able to make a remuneration payment to a current or prospective Director or a payment for loss of office to a current or past Director unless that payment is consistent with the revised Directors' Remuneration Policy or has been approved by a resolution of the shareholders of the Company. If the Directors' Remuneration Policy is not approved for any reason, the Company will continue to make payments to Directors in accordance with the current Directors' Remuneration Policy which was approved at the Company's Annual General Meeting on 14 May 2020 and is available on the Company's website www.prudentialplc.com, and will seek shareholder approval for a further revised policy as soon as is practicable.

Election and re-election of Directors

Explanatory notes

In accordance with Provision 18 of the UK Corporate Governance Code, all Directors other than those retiring at the conclusion of the Meeting will offer themselves for re-election or, in the case of Arijit Basu, Claudia Suessmuth Dyckerhoff and Anil Wadhwani, for election for the first time. Philip Remnant and Tom Watjen will both retire at the conclusion of the Meeting and will not stand for re-election.

All Directors in office during 2022 were subject to a formal and rigorous performance evaluation. The Board considers that each of the Directors continues to discharge their duties and responsibilities effectively, demonstrates commitment to their role, and continues to make a strong contribution to the work of the Board and to the long-term sustainable success of the Company. Each Director brings valuable skills and experience to the Board and its Committees, and their individual contribution to Prudential is detailed in their biographies. The Board has determined that each non-executive Director (with the exception of the Chair, whose independence is only assessed on appointment) continues to be independent and that there are no circumstances likely to impair their judgement in relation to Prudential Board matters. Each independent non-executive Director has confirmed their independence under the criteria set out in Rule 3.13 of the Hong Kong Listing Rules.

The Board, supported by the work carried out by the Nomination & Governance Committee, is actively engaged in an ongoing cycle of succession planning to support the Company's strategic objectives and is satisfied that it continues to maintain an appropriate level of diversity and balance of skills and experience. All Directors standing for election or re-election are recommended by the Nomination & Governance Committee. More detailed information about the activities of the Nomination & Governance Committee in 2022 can be found in the Company's 2022 Annual Report.

Political donations

Resolution 17. That the Company, and all companies that are its subsidiaries at any time during the period for which this resolution is effective, be and are hereby generally and unconditionally authorised for the purposes of Sections 366 and 367 of the 2006 Act, in aggregate, to:

(i) make political donations to political parties and/or independent election candidates not exceeding £50,000 in total;

(ii) make political donations to political organisations other than political parties not exceeding £50,000 in total; and

(iii) incur political expenditure not exceeding £50,000 in total,

(as such terms are defined in Sections 363 to 365 of the 2006 Act) provided that the aggregate of such donations and expenditure shall not exceed £50,000 during the period beginning with the date of passing this resolution and expiring at the earlier of 30 June 2024 and the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held in 2024, unless such authority has been previously renewed, revoked or varied by the Company at a general meeting. The Company may enter into a contract or undertaking under this authority prior to its expiry, which contract or undertaking may be performed wholly or partly after such expiry, and may make donations to political organisations other than political parties and incur political expenditure in pursuance of such contracts or undertakings as if the said authority had not expired.

Explanatory notes

The 2006 Act restricts companies from making donations to political parties, other political organisations or independent election candidates and from incurring political expenditure without shareholders' consent.

Prudential has a clear policy not to make political donations (no political donations were made in the year ended 31 December 2022).

However, although the Company intends to continue to adhere to its policy of not making donations to political parties or to independent election candidates (and will not do so without the specific endorsement of its shareholders) the broad definitions used in the 2006 Act make it possible for normal business activities of the Company, which might not be thought of as political expenditure or donations to political organisations in the usual sense, to be caught. The Company does not believe there is a material risk of it inadvertently making such donations.

In accordance with established best practice, it is the Company's intention to seek renewal of this resolution on an annual basis.

Resolution 18. That:

(A) the Prudential Sharesave Plan 2023 (the 'Sharesave 2023'), the principal terms of which are summarised in Section 1 of Appendix 2 to this Notice, and the rules of which are produced to the Meeting and initialled by the Chair for the purpose of identification, be and are hereby approved, subject to any changes which may be required by HMRC under the relevant tax legislation, and that the Directors be authorised to do all acts and things which they may consider necessary or expedient to carry the Sharesave 2023 into effect; and

(B) the Directors be and are hereby also authorised to approve schedules to the rules of the Sharesave 2023, modifying the rules of the Sharesave 2023 to apply in any overseas jurisdictions to take account of local tax, exchange control or securities laws, provided that any ordinary shares made available under such schedules are treated as counting against any limits on individual or overall participation in the Sharesave 2023.

Explanatory notes

Shareholders are invited to approve the Sharesave 2023, a savingsrelated share option scheme which will enable UK-based employees (including directors) of the Company and its subsidiaries to save directly from their post-tax pay each month to buy Prudential plc shares at a discount and share in the potential success of the Company. The Sharesave 2023 replaces the Prudential 2013 Savings-Related Share Option Scheme (the '2013 Scheme') which was approved by shareholders in 2013 and has reached the end of its 10-year life. The Sharesave 2023 is in substance similar to the 2013 Scheme, with changes made to meet new requirements under the Hong Kong Listing Rules ('HKLR'), UK tax legislation and HMRC guidance. A summary of the principal provisions of the Sharesave 2023 rules is set out in Section 1 of Appendix 2 to the Notice of Meeting on pages 27 to 28.

It is intended that the Sharesave 2023 will qualify for tax benefits for participants and the Company and/or its subsidiaries. Newly issued shares would only be used under the Sharesave 2023 to the extent that they (i) fall within the limits recommended by the Investment Association; and (ii) meet the conditions set out in the waiver from strict compliance with Rule 17.03B(1) of the HKLR granted by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (the 'HKSE') on 11 April 2023 requiring the total number of shares that may be issued under the Sharesave 2023 in any 10-year rolling period, when added to the number of shares issued under any other share plan of the Company, to be limited to 10 per cent of the total number of shares in issue from time to time.

A waiver from strict compliance with the following requirements of Chapter 17 of the HKLR in relation to the Sharesave 2023 was granted by the HKSE on 11 April 2023: (i) Rule 17.03B(1) of the HKLR which requires that the total number of shares which may be issued under all of the Company's share plans do not exceed 10 per cent of the Company's ordinary shares at the date of approval of the Sharesave 2023; and (ii) Rule 17.03E of the HKLR which requires that the minimum exercise price of options not be lower than the higher of (a) the closing price of shares on the day of grant and (b) the average closing price of shares on the five business days preceding the date of grant.

The waiver includes a waiver in similar terms to the conditional waiver from strict compliance with Note (1) to Rule 17.03(3) and Note 1 to Rule 17.03(9) of the previous version of the HKLR, granted by the HKSE on 13 March 2013 in respect of the 2013 Scheme. Pursuant to the waiver granted by the HKSE in relation to the Sharesave 2023 (i) the total number of shares to satisfy options granted in any 10-year rolling period which may be issued under the Sharesave 2023 and any other share plan of the Company is limited to 10 per cent of the Company's shares in issue from time to time; (ii) the option exercise price will not be less than 80 per cent of the closing middle-market quotation or closing price of the Shares on the London Stock Exchange or the HKSE for the business day before the date of invitation or, if the Board so determines, the arithmetic average

ofthe middle-market quotations or closing prices of the Shares on the London Stock Exchange or the HKSE for the three business days before the date of invitation; and (iii) the Sharesave 2023 rules do not provide for the cancellation of options granted, in line with UK tax legislation and HMRC guidance. The Sharesave 2023 must also continue to be in compliance with the UK Listing Rules and other applicable UK laws.

Resolution 19. That:

(A) the Prudential Long Term Incentive Plan 2023 (the 'PLTIP 2023'), the principal terms of which are summarised in Section 2 of Appendix 2 to this Notice, and the rules of which are produced to the Meeting and initialled by the Chair for the purpose of identification, be and are hereby approved and that the Directors be authorised to do all acts and things which they may consider necessary or expedient to carry the PLTIP 2023 into effect; and

(B) the Directors be and are hereby also authorised to approve schedules to the rules of the PLTIP 2023, modifying the rules of the PLTIP 2023 to apply in any overseas jurisdictions to take account of local tax, exchange control or securities laws, provided that any ordinary shares made available under such schedules are treated as counting against any limits on individual or overall participation in the PLTIP 2023.

Explanatory notes

Shareholders are invited to approve the PLTIP 2023, a long-term incentive plan which will allow Prudential to recruit, incentivise, reward and retain eligible employees (including directors) to deliver the long-term objectives of the Company. The PLTIP 2023 replaces the Prudential Long Term Incentive Plan (the 'PLTIP 2013'), which was approved by shareholders in 2013 and has reached the end of its 10-year life. The new plan is substantially the same as the PLTIP 2013, with changes made to meet new requirements under the HKLR and the incorporation of greater operational flexibility for the Remuneration Committee in areas which are now common in plans adopted by other major listed companies. The Directors' Remuneration Report sets out how the Committee intends to operate the PLTIP 2023. Newly issued shares would only be used under the PLTIP 2023 to the extent that they fall within the limits recommended by the Investment Association. A waiver from strict compliance with Rule 17.03B(1) of the HKLR was granted by the HKSE on 11 April 2023 to allow the total number of shares to satisfy awards granted in any 10-year rolling period which may be issued under the PLTIP 2023 and any other share plan of the Company to be limited to 10 per cent of shares in issue from time to time, rather than 10 per cent of the shares in issue as at the date of approval of the PLTIP 2023.

A summary of the principal provisions of the PLTIP 2023 is set out in Section 2 of Appendix 2 to the Notice of Meeting on pages 28 to 30.

Resolution 20. That:

(A) the Prudential International Savings-Related Share Option Scheme for Non-Employees (the 'ISSOSNE'), the principal terms of which are summarised in Section 3 of Appendix 2 to this Notice, and the amended rules of which are produced to the Meeting and initialled by the Chair for the purpose of identification, be and is hereby approved and that the Directors be authorised to do all acts and things which they may consider necessary or expedient to carry the amended ISSOSNE rules into effect; and

(B) the Directors be and are hereby also authorised to approve schedules to the rules of the ISSOSNE, modifying the rules of the ISSOSNE to apply in any overseas jurisdictions to take account of local tax, exchange control or securities laws, provided that any ordinary shares made available under such schedules are treated as counting against any limits on individual or overall participation in the ISSOSNE.

Explanatory notes

The ISSOSNE is used to incentivise and retain key individuals in the Company's distribution channels, including (but not limited to) insurance agents in Hong Kong and Malaysia. The ISSOSNE rules were most recently approved at the 2022 AGM. To meet new requirements under the HKLR, shareholder approval is sought to amend the ISSOSNE rules. The amended rules are not materially different to the existing ISSOSNE rules. A summary of the principal terms of the ISSOSNE rules is set out in Section 3 of Appendix 2 to this Notice of Meeting on pages 30 to 31.

Newly issued shares would only be used under the ISSOSNE to the extent that they (i) fall within the limits recommended by the Investment Association; and (ii) meet the conditions set out in the conditional waiver from strict compliance with Rule 17.03B(1) of the HKLR granted by the HKSE on 11 April 2023 requiring the total number ofshares that may be issued under the ISSOSNE, when added to the number of shares issued under any other share plan of the Company, to be limited to 10 per cent of the total number of shares in issue from time to time.

A waiver from strict compliance with the following requirements of Chapter 17 of the HKLR in relation to the ISSOSNE was granted by the HKSE on 11 April 2023: (i) Rule 17.03B(1) of the HKLR which requires that the total number of shares which may be issued under all of the Company's share plans do not exceed 10 per cent of the Company's ordinary shares at the date of approval of the ISSOSNE; (ii) Rule 17.03E of the HKLR which requires that the minimum exercise price of options not be lower than the higher of (a) the closing price of shares on the day of grant and (b) the average closing price of shares on the five business days preceding the date of grant; and (iii) Rule 17.03F of the HKLR which requires that the vesting period for options shall not be less than 12 months.

The waiver includes a waiver in similar terms to the conditional waiver from strict compliance with Note (1) to Rule 17.03(3) and Note (1) to Rule 17.03(9) of the previous version of the HKLR granted by the HKSE on 20 March 2012 in respect of the version of the ISSOSNE approved by shareholders in 2012 and previously extended by HKSE on 14 March 2022 in respect of the existing ISSOSNE. Pursuant to the waiver granted by the HKSE in respect of the ISSOSNE (i) the total number of shares that may be issued under all of the Company's share plans in any 10-year rolling period is limited to 10 per cent of the total number of shares in issue from time to time; (ii) the exercise price will not be less than 80 per cent of the arithmetic average of the middle-market quotation of a Share as derived from the London Stock Exchange Daily Official List (or, if the Board so determines, the daily quotations sheet of the HKSE) for three consecutive dealing days determined by the Board which fall within the period of 30 days immediately preceding the day on which the relevant option is granted; and (iii) the vesting period for options may be less than 12 months in the following circumstances: (a) where the Board has discretion to decide, in accordance with the Board's internal guidelines (which set out the eligibility criteria for the nomination of agents to participate in the ISSOSNE, such as exclusivity of services, average number of hours working for the Company and profits generated) as applicable from time to time, whether an option shall be exercisable if the option holder ceases to be an eligible participant. The Board may consider exercising the aforementioned discretion in compassionate circumstances, such as where a participant has left the group due to a terminal illness diagnosis; (b) options can be exercisable within 6 months after a change in control of the Company; (c) options can be exercisable at any time during the period from when a compromise or arrangement is sanctioned by the Court under the 2006 Act until when such compromise or arrangement becomes effective; and (d) options can be exercisable within 2 months after a resolution has been passed for the voluntary winding up of the Company. The ISSOSNE must also continue to be in compliance with the UK Listing Rules and other applicable UK laws.

Resolution 21. That the ISSOSNE Service Provider Sublimit (as defined below) be and is hereby approved and that the Directors be authorised to do all acts and things which they may consider necessary or expedient to effect and implement the ISSOSNE Service Provider Sublimit.

Explanatory notes

To comply with the HKLR, the maximum number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options granted under the ISSOSNE to a participant who qualifies as a "service provider" (as defined under the HKLR), when added to the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options or awards under any other share plan adopted by the Company in any 10-year rolling period may not exceed 2 per cent. ofthe issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time (the "ISSOSNE Service Provider Sublimit"). This limit has been set at this level in order to allow for parity of treatment across the workforce between employees and agents and is appropriate and reasonable, in line with the practice of UK listed companies.

Resolution 22. That:

(A) the Prudential Agency Long Term Incentive Plan (the 'Agency LTIP'), the principal terms of which are summarised in Section 4 of Appendix 2 to this Notice, and the rules of which are produced to the Meeting and initialled by the Chair for the purpose of identification, be and are hereby approved and that the Directors be authorised to do all acts and things which they may consider necessary or expedient to carry the Agency LTIP into effect; and

(B) the Directors be and are hereby also authorised to approve schedules to the rules of the Agency LTIP, modifying the rules of the Agency LTIP to apply in any overseas jurisdictions to take account of local tax, exchange control or securities laws, provided that any ordinary shares made available under such schedules are treated as counting against any limits on individual or overall participation in the Agency LTIP.

Explanatory notes

The Agency LTIP is a long-term incentive plan which will allow Prudential to recruit, incentivise, reward and retain eligible agents to deliver the long-term objectives of the Company. The Agency LTIP was initially adopted by the Remuneration Committee in 2011 and has since come within the scope of the HKLR. Shareholder approval istherefore sought to adopt and renew the Agency LTIP for a further 10 years. A description of the principal provisions of the Agency LTIP is set out in Section 4 of Appendix 2 to the Notice of Meeting on pages 31 to 33.

Newly issued shares would only be used under the Agency LTIP to the extent that they (i) fall within the limits recommended by the Investment Association; and (ii) meet the conditions set out in the conditional waiver from strict compliance with Rule 17.03B(1) of the HKLR granted by the HKSE on 11 April 2023 requiring the total number of shares that may be issued under the Agency LTIP, when added to the number of shares issued under any other share plan of the Company, to be limited to 10 per cent of the total number of shares in issue from time to time.

A waiver from strict compliance with the following requirements of Chapter 17 of the HKLR in relation to the Agency LTIP was granted by the HKSE on 11 April 2023: (i) Rule 17.03B(1) of the HKLR which requires that the total number of shares which may be issued under all of the Company's share plans in any 10-year rolling period do not exceed 10 per cent of the Company's ordinary shares at the date of approval of the Agency LTIP; (ii) Rule 17.03F of the HKLR which requires that the vesting period for awards shall not be less than 12 months.

Pursuant to the waiver granted by the HKSE in respect of the Agency LTIP (i) the total number of shares that may be issued under all of the Company's share plans is limited to 10 per cent of the total number ofshares in issue from time to time; and (ii) the vesting period for awards may be less than 12 months in the following circumstances: (a) where a participant ceases to be an insurance agent for the reasons set out under the Agency LTIP (ie redundancy, injury or disability, retirement, employing entity or business ceasing to be part of the Company's group, or the participant's), the remuneration committee may allow an award to vest in part or in full before the original vesting date, taking into consideration the performance conditions which have been satisfied, the number of months between date of grant and the cessation date and other factors including personal conduct of the participant; (b) if a participant ceases to be an insurance agent before the original vesting date and the remuneration committee decides that the award will not lapse, the award must vest in part or in full on the date of cessation if the participant is a US taxpayer; (c) if a participant ceases to be an insurance agent before the vesting date for any other reason, including where an agent resigns due to personal circumstances such as family relocation or a career change (other than death or summary termination of employment), the remuneration committee may allow an award to vest in part or in full; (d) the remuneration committee may allow an award to vest in part or in full if there is a change of control of the Company or if a compromise or arrangement has been sanctioned by the Court under the 2006 Act; (e) the remuneration committee may allow an award to vest in part or in full if the Company is or is expected to be affected by any demerger, dividend in specie, super dividend or other transaction (such as entrance into a joint venture with a third party and such transaction negatively impacts the Company's share price, or a secondary capital raising, other than the transactions prescribed under the Rule 10.1 of the Agency LTIP); and (f) for a participant who is a US taxpayer, if a delay due to vesting conditions, dealing restrictions or an investigation into malus circumstances would postpone the issue of transfer of Shares or cash equivalent beyond a prescribed period within the meaning of the US Tax Code, the remuneration committee may cause a share award to vest in part or in full. The Agency LTIP must also be in compliance with the UK Listing Rules and other applicable UK laws.

Resolution 23. That the Agency LTIP Service Provider Sublimit (as defined below) be and is hereby approved and that the Directors be authorised to do all acts and things which they may consider necessary or expedient to effect and implement the Agency LTIP Service Provider Sublimit.

Explanatory notes

To comply with the HKLR, the maximum number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy awards granted under the Agency LTIP to a participant who qualifies as a "service provider" (as defined under the HKLR), when added to the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options or awards under any other share plan adopted by the Company in any 10-year rolling period may not exceed 2 per cent. ofthe issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time (the "Agency LTIP Service Provider Sublimit"). This limit has been set at this level in order to allow for parity of treatment across the workforce between employees and agents and is appropriate and reasonable, in line with the practice of UK listed companies.

Renewal of authority to allot ordinary shares

Resolution 24. That the Directors be and are hereby authorised, generally and unconditionally, pursuant to Section 551 of the 2006 Act, to exercise all the powers of the Company to allot shares in the Company and to grant rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into shares in the Company for a period expiring at the earlier of 30 June 2024 and the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held in 2024 (save that the Company may make offers and enter into agreements under this authority prior to its expiry which would, or might, require shares to be allotted or rights to subscribe for or to convert securities into shares to be granted after such expiry, and the Board may allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for or to convert securities into shares under any such offer or agreement as if the said authority had not expired) and for a maximum aggregate nominal amount of:

(A) £27,532,061 (such amount to be reduced by any allotments or grants made under paragraph (B) or (C) of this resolution 24 so that in total no more than £45,840,881 can be allotted under paragraphs (A) and (B) of this resolution 24, and no more than £91,681,763 can be allotted under paragraphs (A), (B) and (C));

(B) £45,840,881 (such amount to be reduced by any allotments or grants made under paragraph (A) or (C) of this resolution 24 so that in total no more than £45,840,881 can be allotted under paragraphs (A) and (B) of this resolution 24, and no more than £91,681,763 can be allotted under paragraphs (A), (B) and (C)) in connection with an offer or invitation:

(a) to ordinary shareholders in proportion (as nearly as may be practicable) to their existing holdings; and

(b) to holders of other equity securities (as defined in section 560(1) of the 2006 Act) as required by the rights of those securities or as the Board otherwise considers necessary,

and so that the Board may impose any limits or restrictions and make any arrangements which it considers necessary or appropriate to deal with treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates, legal, regulatory or practical problems in, or under the laws of, any territory or any other matter;

(C) £91,681,763 (such amount to be reduced by any allotments or grants made under paragraph (A) or (B) of this resolution 24 so that in total no more than £91,681,763 can be allotted under paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) of this resolution 24) in connection with a rights issue:

(a) to ordinary shareholders in proportion (as early as may be practicable) to their existing holdings; and

(b) to holders of other equity securities (as defined in Section 560(1) of the 2006 Act) as required by the rights of those securities or as the Board otherwise considers necessary,

and so that the Board may impose any limits or restrictions and make any arrangements which it considers necessary or appropriate to deal with treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates, legal, regulatory or practical problems in, or under the laws of, any territory or any other matter; and

(D) the amount allotted pursuant to the terms of any share scheme of the Company or any of its subsidiary undertakings adopted prior to or on the date of this Meeting.

Explanatory notes

At last year's Annual General Meeting, shareholders renewed a resolution giving the Directors authority to allot ordinary shares or grant rights to subscribe for or convert any security into shares in the Company (referred to collectively as Allotments). That authority will expire at the conclusion of this year's Meeting. Accordingly, the Notice includes a resolution to renew this authority and to extend the authority to make Allotments in connection with rights issues as further described below.

The Company has no present plans to undertake a rights issue or to issue new shares (or grant options over such new shares) other than in connection with its employee and agent share plans (such as, for example, the Prudential International Savings-Related Share Option Scheme for Non-Employees ('ISSOSNE') described under resolution 20). However, this authority will give the Directors the flexibility permitted by the HKLR and corporate governance guidelines to issue shares where they believe it is for the benefit of shareholders to do so. This authority complies with UK institutional investment guidelines and will expire at the earlier of 30 June 2024 and the conclusion of the 2024 Annual General Meeting.

This resolution needs to comply with the requirements of the HKLR as a result of the Company's listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange ('HKSE'). As a consequence, paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) of resolution 24 relate to different tranches of the Company's issued ordinary share capital which, when taken together, cover an aggregate nominal amount equal to £91,681,763 representing approximately 1,833,635,277 ordinary shares. This amount is approximately 66.6 per cent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 6 April 2023, the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Notice, which is also in line with guidance issued by the Investment Association.

To protect shareholders' interests and minimise any dilutive effects arising from the non-pre-emptive issue of shares, the total amount of Allotments which may be made under paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) of resolution 24, will cover an aggregate nominal amount equal to £91,681,763 representing approximately 1,833,635,277 ordinary shares (the 'Allotment Limit'). The Allotment Limit is equal to approximately 66.6 per cent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 6 April 2023, the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Notice.

Paragraph (A) of resolution 24 authorises the Directors to make Allotments of an aggregate nominal amount equal to £27,532,061 (representing approximately 550,641,224 ordinary shares in the Company). This amount, which is the maximum proportion of share capital Directors may allot without pre-emption under the HKLR, represents approximately 20 per cent ofthe total issued ordinary share capital as at 6 April 2023. This authority will be reduced by the amount of any allotments or grants made under paragraphs (B) and (C) of resolution 24, to ensure that the total amount of Allotments which may be made under paragraphs (A) and (B) does not exceed one-third of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company and that the total amount of Allotments which may be made under paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) ofresolution 24 does not exceed the Allotment Limit.

Paragraph (B) of resolution 24 authorises the Directors to make Allotments of an aggregate nominal amount equal to £45,840,881 (representing approximately 916,817,638 ordinary shares in the Company) in connection with offers to ordinary shareholders or holders of other equity securities. This amount exceeds the 20 per cent authority in paragraph (A) of resolution 24 by approximately 13 percentage points, which is in line with guidance issued by the Investment Association.

This authority will be reduced by the amount of any allotments or grants made under paragraphs (A) and (C) of resolution 24 to ensure that the total amount of Allotments which may be made under paragraphs (A) and (B) of resolution 24 does not exceed one-third of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company and that the total amount of Allotments which may be made under paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) of resolution 24 does not exceed the Allotment Limit. The restrictions detailed in paragraph (B) (i) and (ii) of resolution 24 are proposed in order to comply with the HKLR which do not permit the Directors to make Allotments on a non-pre-emptive basis in excess of the respective 20 per cent thresholds in paragraph (A) ofresolution 24.

Paragraph (C) of resolution 24 authorises the Directors to make Allotments of an aggregate nominal amount equal to £91,681,763 (representing approximately 1,833,635,277 ordinary shares in the Company) in connection with only a rights issue to ordinary shareholders or holders of other equity securities. This authority will be reduced by the amount of any allotments or grants made under paragraphs (A) and (B) of resolution 24 to ensure that the total amount of Allotments which may be made under paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) of resolution 24 does not exceed the Allotment Limit. This amount exceeds the 20 per cent authority in paragraph (A) of resolution 24 by approximately 43 percentage points, which is in line with guidance issued by the Investment Association.

The Directors are aware of the latest Investment Association Share Capital Management Guidelines published in February 2023, which update the previous guidance to incorporate all fully pre-emptive offers, not just fully pre-emptive rights issues, in respect of the authority to allot a further (one-third) of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company. The Directors have decided that they will limit Paragraph (C) of the allotment authority to rights issues this year in line with past practice but will keep emerging market practice under review. The Directors consider the current limitation to rights issues provides sufficient flexibility to the Company for present purposes.

Under Rule 7.19A(1) of the HKLR, if a proposed rights issue would increase either the number of issued shares or the market capitalisation of the Company by more than 50 per cent (on its own or when aggregated with any other rights issues or open offers announced within the previous 12 months or prior to such 12-month period where dealing in respect of the shares issued pursuant thereto commenced within such 12-month period), then the issue must be made conditional on approval by minority shareholders in a general meeting by a resolution on which the directors (excluding independent non-executive directors) and their associates must abstain from voting.

However, the HKSE has granted a waiver to the Company on 4 May 2010 from strict compliance with the above requirements in order to place the Company on an equal footing with other UK listed companies. The waiver has been granted on the basis that:

(A) the directors (excluding independent non-executive directors) and their associates would abstain from voting on the relevant resolution in their capacity as shareholders at the Meeting; and

(B) if the Company were to do a further rights issue, the Company would not need to obtain further minority shareholder approval under Rule 7.19A(1) of the HKLR provided that:

(a) the market capitalisation of the Company will not increase by more than 50 per cent as a result of the proposed rights issue; and

(b) the votes of any new Directors appointed to the Board since the Meeting would not have made a difference to the outcome of the relevant resolution at the Meeting if they had been shareholders at the time and they had in fact abstained from voting.

Save as disclosed above, no shareholder of the Company is required to abstain from voting on the resolutions in relation to the Prudential Plans.

Paragraph (D) of resolution 24 seeks authority from shareholders under the HKLR for the Directors to make Allotments pursuant to the Company's share schemes or those of its subsidiary undertakings. The Directors intend to use the authorities sought under paragraph (D) of resolution 24 following the exercise of options and awards under the Company's share schemes adopted prior to or on the date of the Meeting.

Extension of authority to allot ordinary shares to include repurchased shares

Resolution 25. That the authority granted to the Directors to allot shares and to grant rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into shares up to a total nominal value of £27,532,061 pursuant to paragraph (A) of resolution 24 set out above be extended by the addition of such number of ordinary shares of five pence each representing the nominal amount of the Company's share capital repurchased by the Company under the authority granted pursuant to resolution 28 set out below, to the extent that such extension would not result in the authority to allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for or convert securities into shares pursuant to resolution 24 exceeding £91,681,763.

Explanatory notes

As permitted by the HKLR, resolution 25 seeks to extend the Directors' authority to allot shares and grant rights to subscribe for or convert any security into shares pursuant to paragraph (A) of resolution 24 to include any shares repurchased by the Company under the authority to be sought by resolution 28.

Renewal of authority for disapplication of pre-emption rights

Resolution 26. That if resolutions 24 and/or 25 are passed the Directors be and are hereby authorised to allot equity securities (as defined in Section 560(1) of the 2006 Act) for cash pursuant to the power conferred on the Directors by resolutions 24 and/or 25 and/or to sell any ordinary shares held by the Company as treasury shares for cash as if Section 561 of that Act did not apply to such allotment or sale for a period expiring at the earlier of 30 June 2024 and the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held in 2024 (save that the Company may make offers and enter into agreements under this authority prior to its expiry which would, or might, require equity securities to be allotted (or treasury shares to be sold) after such expiry, and the Board may allot equity securities (or sell treasury shares) under any such offer or agreement as if the said authority had not expired), such authority to be limited:

(A) to the allotment of equity securities and sale of treasury shares in connection with an offer of, or an invitation to apply for, equity securities in accordance with paragraphs (B) and (C) of resolution 24 above; and

(B) otherwise than under paragraph (A) above, in the case of any allotment of equity securities and sale of treasury shares the maximum aggregate nominal amount of equity securities that may be allotted or sold pursuant to this authority under the authority conferred on the Directors by paragraph (A) of resolution 24 and/or 25 and/or a sale of ordinary shares held by the Company as treasury shares for cash is £6,883,015.

Explanatory notes

At last year's Annual General Meeting, shareholders passed a special resolution giving the Directors authority to allot equity securities for cash without first being required to offer such securities to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings, by the limited disapplication of Section 561 of the 2006 Act. That power will expire at the conclusion of this year's Meeting. Accordingly, the Notice includes a special resolution to renew this authority. This authority only extends (apart from pre-emptive issues) to the issue of equity securities, including the sale of any ordinary shares held in treasury in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 6 of Part 18 of the 2006 Act. As at 6 April 2023 the Company held no treasury shares.

The authority is sought for a maximum nominal value of £6,883,015 representing approximately 137,660,306 ordinary shares in the Company, which is approximately 5 per cent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 6 April 2023. As regards rights issues and other pre-emptive issues, the Directors believe the mechanics and delay of the procedure under Section 561 are unduly restrictive and are therefore also seeking continuation of its disapplication in these circumstances.

Annual renewal of this authority is sought in line with the Statement of Principles on Disapplying Pre-Emption Rights published by the Pre-Emption Group in 2015 (the 'Statement of Principles 2015'). In respect of this aggregate nominal amount, the Directors confirm their intention to follow the Statement of Principles 2015 regarding cumulative usage of authorities within a rolling three-year period where such principles provide that usage in excess of 7.5 per cent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company should not take place without prior consultation with shareholders. In respect ofthe authorities sought under resolutions 26 and 27, the Directors acknowledge the provisions of the Pre-Emption Group's most recent Statement of Principles published in November 2022. However, at this time, the Directors consider it appropriate to retain the previous limits of 5 per cent of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company in resolutions 26 and 27 and have not adopted the increased limits of 10 per cent set out in the Pre-Emption Group's most recent Statement of Principles, nor do the resolutions specifically provide for follow-on offers. The Directors will keep emerging market practice under review but consider that the limits of 5 per cent provide sufficient flexibility to the Company for present purposes.

This renewed authority will expire at the earlier of 30 June 2024 and the conclusion of the 2024 Annual General Meeting.

Additional authority for disapplication of pre-emption rights for purposes of acquisitions or specified capital investments

Resolution 27. That if resolutions 24 and 25 are passed the Directors be and are hereby authorised in addition to any authority granted under resolution 25 to allot equity securities (as defined in Section 560(1) of the 2006 Act) for cash pursuant to the power conferred on the Directors by resolutions 24 and/or 25 and/or to sell any ordinary shares held by the Company as treasury shares for cash as if Section 561 of that Act did not apply to such allotment or sale for a period expiring at the earlier of 30 June 2024 and the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held in 2024 (save that the Company may make offers and enter into agreements under this authority prior to its expiry which would, or might, require equity securities to be allotted (or treasury shares to be sold) after such expiry, and the Board may allot equity securities (or sell treasury shares) under any such offer or agreement as if the said authority had not expired), such authority to be:

(A) limited to the allotment of equity securities and sale of treasury shares up to a nominal amount of £6,883,015; and

(B) used only for the purposes of financing (or refinancing, if the authority is to be used within six months after the original transaction) a transaction which the Board determines to be an acquisition or other capital investment of a kind contemplated by the Statement of Principles 2015.

Explanatory notes

In line with the guidance in the Statement of Principles 2015, resolution 27 requests shareholder approval, by way of a separate special resolution, for the Directors to allot equity securities or sell treasury shares for cash in connection with acquisitions or capital investments without first being required to offer such securities to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings, in addition to the general authority to disapply pre-emption rights sought under resolution 26. In accordance with the Statement of Principles 2015, the Directors confirm that this authority will only be used in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment that is announced contemporaneously with the issue, or that has taken place in the preceding six month period and is disclosed in the announcement of the issue. This authority only extends to the issue of equity securities, including the sale of any ordinary shares held in treasury in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 6 of Part 18 of the 2006 Act. As at 6 April 2023 the Company held no treasury shares.

The authority is sought for a maximum nominal value of £6,883,015 representing approximately 137,660,306 ordinary shares in the Company, which is approximately 5 per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 6 April 2023, the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Notice.

While the Directors have no present intention of exercising this specific authority to disapply pre-emption rights, the Directors consider that the authority sought at this year's Meeting will benefit the Company and its shareholders generally since there may be occasions in the future when the Directors need the flexibility to finance acquisitions or capital investments by issuing shares for cash without a pre-emptive offer to existing shareholders.

Renewal of authority for purchase of own shares

Resolution 28. That the Company be and is hereby generally and unconditionally authorised, in accordance with Section 701 of the 2006 Act, to make one or more market purchases (within the meaning of Section 693(4) of the 2006 Act) of its ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, provided that:

(A) Such authority be limited:

(i) to a maximum aggregate number of 275,320,612 ordinary shares;

(ii) by the condition that the minimum price which may be paid for each ordinary share is five pence and the maximum price which may be paid for an ordinary share is the highest of:

(a) an amount equal to 105 per cent of the average of the middle market quotations for an ordinary share as derived from the Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange for the five business days immediately preceding the day on which the share is contracted to be purchased; and

(b) the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent bid on the trading venues where the purchase is carried out,

in each case exclusive of expenses;

(B) Such authority shall, unless renewed, varied or revoked prior to such time, expire at the earlier of 30 June 2024 and the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held in 2024, save that the Company may before such expiry make a contract or contracts to purchase ordinary shares under the authority hereby conferred which would or may be executed wholly or partly after the expiry of such authority and may make a purchase of ordinary shares in pursuance of any such contract or contracts as if the power conferred hereby had not expired; and

(C) All ordinary shares purchased pursuant to said authority shall be either:

(i) cancelled immediately upon completion of the purchase; or

(ii) held, sold, transferred or otherwise dealt with as treasury shares in accordance with the provisions of the 2006 Act.

Explanatory notes

The Directors consider that there may be circumstances in which it would be desirable for the Company to purchase its own shares in the market. Although the Directors have no immediate plans to make such purchases, they would like to be able to act if circumstances arose in which they considered such purchases to be desirable. Purchases would only be made if their effect would be to increase earnings per share and they would be for the benefit of shareholders generally. No purchases of shares would be conducted on the HKSE.

Accordingly, this resolution is proposed to authorise the Company to make market purchases of its ordinary shares up to a maximum nominal value of £13,766,030, representing 275,320,612 ordinary shares which is approximately 10 per cent of the Company's issued share capital as at 6 April 2023, at prices not lower than five pence per ordinary share and not exceeding the highest of (i) 105 per cent of the average middle-market value of an ordinary share for the five business days preceding the date of purchase and (ii) the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent bid on the trading venues where the purchase is carried out.

The Company may retain any shares it purchases as treasury shares with a view to possible reissue at a future date or may cancel the shares. If the Company were to purchase any of its own ordinary shares, it would consider holding them as treasury shares pursuant to the authority conferred by this resolution. This would enable the Company to reissue such shares quickly and cost-effectively and would provide the Company with additional flexibility in the management of its capital base. This authority will expire at the earlier of 30 June 2024 and the conclusion of the 2024 Annual General Meeting.

A waiver from strict compliance with Rule 10.06(5) of the HKLR was granted by the HKSE on 4 May 2010 (and updated on 24 February 2016, 29 April 2021 and 21 March 2022). Under Rule 10.06(5) of the HKLR, the listing of all shares which are purchased by the Company shall automatically be cancelled upon purchase and the Company must apply for listing of any further issues in the normal way. As a consequence of this waiver, Rule 10.06(5) of the HKLR has been amended such that shares purchased by the Company to hold as treasury shares will remain listed and the listing will not be suspended or cancelled and any subsequent sale of such treasury shares or transfer of such treasury shares pursuant to an employees' share scheme shall not, for the purposes of the HKLR, constitute a new issue of shares and shall not require a new listing application to be made. In accordance with the terms of this waiver, the Company confirms that it complies with the applicable law and regulation in the UK in relation to the holding of shares in treasury and with the conditions ofthe waiver in connection with the purchase of own shares and any treasury shares it may hold.

The Company has options and awards outstanding over 7,309,910 ordinary shares, representing approximately 0.27 per cent of the Company's ordinary issued share capital as at 6 April 2023 (the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Notice). If the existing authority given at the 2022 Annual General Meeting and the authority sought by this resolution 28 were to be fully used these outstanding options and awards would represent approximately 0.33 per cent ofthe Company's ordinary issued share capital at that date.

New Articles of Association

Resolution 29. That, with effect from the conclusion of the Meeting and pursuant to Section 21(1) of the 2006 Act, the Articles of Association produced to the Meeting and initialled by the Chair of the Meeting for the purpose of identification, be approved and adopted as the Articles of Association of the Company in substitution for, and to the exclusion of, the existing Articles of Association of the Company.

Explanatory notes

Resolution 29 proposes the adoption of new Articles of Association. The Company is asking shareholders to approve a number of amendments to the Company's current Articles of Association (the 'Current Articles'). The resolution adopting the proposed Articles of Association (the 'New Articles') will, if passed, become effective at the conclusion of the Meeting.

The Company is required to comply with new core shareholder protection standards as set out in Appendix 3 to the Hong Kong Listing Rules (the 'HK Core Standards') and has taken this opportunity to conduct a general review and update of the Current Articles in order to reflect latest market practice. An explanation of the principal changes introduced in the New Articles is set out in Appendix 3 to the Notice of Meeting on pages 34 to 35. Other changes, which are of a minor, technical or clarifying nature have not been noted in Appendix 3. The New Articles marked to show all amendments to the Current Articles are available for inspection, as noted on page 36 of this document, and are available on the Company's website: www.prudentialplc.com

Notice for general meetings

Resolution 30. That a general meeting other than an Annual General Meeting may be called on not less than 14 clear days' notice.

Explanatory notes

Under the 2006 Act, the notice period required for general meetings of the Company is 21 clear days unless shareholders approve a shorter notice period (which cannot however be less than 14 clear days). Annual General Meetings are still required to be held on at least 21 'clear days' notice. Approval for a shorter notice period was sought and received from shareholders at the last Annual General Meeting and to preserve this ability, this resolution 30 seeks renewal of the approval for a notice period of 14 days to apply to general meetings. The shorter notice period will not be used as a matter of routine, but only where flexibility is merited by the business of the meeting and is thought to be to the advantage of shareholders as a whole. If used, an electronic voting facility will be provided.

Annual General Meetings will continue to be held on at least 21 clear days' notice.

The approval will be effective until the earlier of 30 June 2024 or the conclusion of the Company's 2024 Annual General Meeting when it isintended that a similar resolution will be proposed.

5 The return of a completed Form of Proxy, other such instrument or any CREST Proxy Instruction (as described in paragraph 11 below) will not prevent a shareholder attending the Meeting and voting in person, via the Lumi Platform, if they wish to do so.

6 Any person to whom this Notice is sent who is a person nominated under Section 146 of the 2006 Act to enjoy information rights (a nominated person) may, under an agreement between them and the shareholder by whom they were nominated, have a right to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the Meeting. If a nominated person has no such proxy appointment right or does not wish to exercise it, they may, under any such agreement, have a right to give instructions to the shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights.

7 The statement of the rights of shareholders in relation to the appointment of proxies in paragraphs 1 to 4 above does not apply to nominated persons. The rights described in these paragraphs can only be exercised by registered shareholders of the Company.

8 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.

9 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). 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 issuer's agent (ID RA19) by 10.30am London time on 23 May 2023. 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 issuer'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.

10 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 their 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.

11 The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5) (a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.

12 In the case of joint holders, where more than one of the joint holders purports to appoint a proxy, only the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in the Company's register of members in respect of the joint holding (the first-named being the most senior).

Appointing corporate representatives

13 Any corporation which is a member may appoint one or more corporate representatives who may exercise on its behalf all of its powers as a member provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares.

Entitlement to attend, vote and ask questions at the Meeting

14 To be entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting (and for the purpose of the determination by the Company of the votes they may cast), shareholders must be registered on the Company's main UK share register or Hong Kong branch register as at 6.30pm London time on 23 May 2023 (4.30pm Hong Kong time on 23 May 2023) (or, in the event of any adjournment, 6.30pm London time two days prior to the adjourned meeting). Any person holding an interest in shares through CDP must be registered on CDP's register as at 5.00pm Singapore time on 15 May 2023 (or in the event of an adjournment 5.00pm Singapore time nine days prior to the adjourned meeting). The earlier CDP deadline is to allow sufficient time for a person holding an interest in shares through CDP to obtain authorisation to act as a proxy or representative of HKSCC Nominees Limited, in whose name the shares are registered, at the Meeting. Changes to the Company's share registers after the relevant deadline shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the Meeting.

15 Any member or their proxy attending the Meeting has the right to ask questions. The Company must provide an answer to any such question relating to the business being dealt with at the Meeting save that no such answer need be given if:

(i)to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation for the Meeting or involve the disclosure of confidential information;

(ii) the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question; or

(iii) it is undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the Meeting that the question be answered.

16 The Company will continue its practice of calling a poll on all resolutions at the Meeting. The provisional voting results, which will include all votes cast for and against each resolution at the Meeting, and all proxies lodged prior to the Meeting, which will include votes cast for and against each resolution, will be published on the Company's website as soon as practicable after the Meeting. The Company will also disclose the number of votes withheld. This practice provides shareholders present with sufficient information regarding the level of support and opposition to each resolution and ensures all votes cast either at the Meeting or through proxies are included in the result.

Issued share capital

17 As at 6 April 2023 (being the latest practicable day prior to the publication of this Notice) the Company's issued share capital consists of 2,753,206,122 ordinary shares, carrying one vote each. Therefore, the total voting rights in the Company as at 6 April 2023 were 2,753,206,122. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury.

(ii) any circumstance connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the previous meeting at which annual accounts and reports were laid in accordance with Section 437 ofthe 2006 Act.

The Company may not require the shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with Sections 527 or 528 of the 2006 Act. Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under Section 527 of the 2006 Act, it must forward the statement to the Company's auditor not later than the time when it makes the statement available on the website.

Sharesave 2023, PLTIP 2023, ISSOSNE and Agency LTIP

Shareholder approval is sought in relation to the (i) Prudential Sharesave Plan 2023 (the 'Sharesave 2023'); (ii) Prudential Long Term Incentive Plan 2023 (the 'PLTIP 2023'); (iii) amended International Savings-Related Share Option Scheme for Non-Employees (the 'ISSOSNE'); and (iv) the Prudential Agency Long Term Incentive Plan (the 'Agency LTIP', together with the Sharesave 2023, the PLTIP 2023 and the ISSOSNE, the 'Prudential Plans').

The principal provisions of each of the Prudential Plans are summarised below, with features common to the Prudential Plans set out at section 5 further below.

1. Principal provisions of the Sharesave 2023 General

The Sharesave 2023 is a UK tax-advantaged share option plan which provides benefits to incentivise and retain eligible UK-based employees in the form of options over ordinary shares in the Company ('Shares') ifthey save for a period of three or five years under a savings contract.

The Sharesave 2023 is a broad-based plan (in a form approved by theUK tax authorities) intended to promote share ownership in the Company's wider workforce. The number of Shares participants may acquire is restricted by the amount of savings they make under the plan. The maximum amount of savings that a participant can make is, in turn, capped by the UK legislation governing the Sharesave 2023. The Company therefore considers it inappropriate to apply performance conditions or malus and clawback provisions to awards granted under the Sharesave 2023, the use of which, in any event, is restricted by the legislation governing the Sharesave 2023.

The basis for determining eligible employees and the exercise price, as well as vesting and exercise periods for options granted under the Sharesave 2023 is prescribed by the UK legislation governing the Sharesave 2023. Compliance with this legislation delivers the objective of the Sharesave 2023 by allowing eligible employees to acquire Shares on a tax-advantaged basis.

Eligibility

Each time that the Board decides to issue an invitation to employees to participate in the Sharesave 2023, all UK resident tax-paying employees and full-time directors of the Company and its subsidiaries (the 'Group') participating in the Sharesave 2023 must be offered the opportunity to participate. Other employees of the Group may be permitted to participate at the Board's discretion. If the Board so determines in line with the relevant legislation governing the Sharesave 2023, employees who are invited to participate must have completed a minimum qualifying period of employment before they can participate (which currently can be up to five years before the grant date).

Savings contract

Under the Sharesave 2023, eligible employees may enter into a linked savings contract to make savings over a three or five year period. Monthly savings by an employee under all savings contracts linked to options granted under any tax-advantaged savings-related share option plan may not exceed the statutory maximum, which is currently set at £500 per month. The Board may set a lower limit in relation to any particular grant. At the end of the three or five-year savings contract, employees may either withdraw their savings on a tax-free basis or use their savings to acquire Shares.

Exercise price

The proceeds of the savings contract can be used to exercise an option to acquire Shares at an exercise price per Share set when employees were invited to participate in the Sharesave 2023 (the 'Invitation Date'). The exercise price may not be manifestly less than 80 per cent

(or such other percentage as may be permitted by the relevant legislation) of the market value of a Share on the Invitation Date. The market value of a Share will be the closing middle-market quotation of a Share (as derived from the Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange or, if the Board so determines, the daily quotations sheet of the HKSE) for the business day before the Invitation Date or, if the Board so determines, the arithmetic average of the middle-market quotations or closing prices of a Share for the three business days before the Invitation Date. The exercise price will normally be set using prices taken from a period of 42 days beginning on: (a) the first dealing day after the announcement of the Company's results for any period; (b) the day on which an announcement is made of an amendment to the relevant legislation governing the Sharesave 2023 or such legislation comes into force; (c) the day on which a new HMRC-approved savings contract is announced; or (d) to the extent that share dealing restrictions apply in any of the preceding three periods, the dealing day on which such dealing restrictions are lifted, unless the Board determines that exceptional circumstances exist which justify the issue of invitations under the Sharesave 2023 at another time.

Source of Shares and limits

The Sharesave 2023 may operate over new issue Shares, treasury Shares or Shares purchased in the market. The rules of the Sharesave 2023 provide that the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options or awards granted under the Sharesave 2023 and any other share plan adopted by the Company in any 10-year rolling period may not exceed 10 per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time.

Shares transferred out of treasury will count towards this limit for so long as this is required under institutional shareholder guidelines. However, options over and awards of Shares which lapse will be disregarded for the purposes of this limit.

To ensure compliance with the Hong Kong Listing Rules (the 'HKLR'), the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options granted under the Sharesave 2023 to a participant, when added to the number of Shares which may be issued under any other option or award over Shares granted in the preceding 12 months to that participant, may not exceed one per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time, unless approval by the Company's shareholders has been obtained in accordance with the HKLR.

Vesting and exercise of options

An option usually vests on the date that the savings contract matures. Ordinarily, an option may be exercised within six months of the date that the savings contract matures. Options not exercised by the end of this period will lapse.

Cessation of employment

Options will normally lapse immediately upon a participant ceasing to be employed by, or hold office with, the Group. However, if a participant ceases to hold office or employment because of injury, disability, redundancy, retirement or the sale of the individual's employing company or business out of the Group, their option will not lapse and may be exercised early for a period of up to six months after the participant's cessation of office or employment. If a participant passes away, their option may be exercised by their personal representatives for a period of 12 months after they have passed away.

Corporate events

In the event of a change of control or winding-up of the Company, any outstanding options may be exercised early. Alternatively, the Board may permit options to be exchanged for equivalent options over Shares in the acquiring company. If the change of control is an internal reorganisation of the Group, options will lapse unless the participants agree to exchange their outstanding options for equivalent options over Shares in the new holding company.

Adjustments

In the event of a capitalisation issue, rights issue, sub-division or consolidation of Shares or reduction of capital, the Board may adjust the number of Shares subject to options and/or the exercise price applicable to options in such manner as it considers appropriate.

Lapse of options

Except as described above (and unless the participant purports to transfer their option), there is no provision in the rules for the cancellation of options granted but not exercised.

2. Principal provisions of the PLTIP 2023

General

The PLTIP 2023 is a discretionary share plan, under which the Company may grant awards over Shares to incentivise and retain eligible employees. The PLTIP 2023 will be administered by the Remuneration Committee (the 'Committee') or any committee or person duly authorised by it.

Eligibility

Any employee of the Group, including the Company's executive director(s) ('Executive Directors'), may be selected to participate in the PLTIP 2023 at the Committee's discretion. This enables this Committee to incentivise those key employees most capable of delivering returns for shareholders.

Individual limits

Awards will not normally be granted to a participant under the PLTIP 2023 over Shares with a market value (as determined by the Committee at the time an award is granted) in excess of 550 per cent of salary in respect of any financial year of the Company. Awards may however be granted in excess of this limit to an eligible employee in connection with their recruitment by way of compensating them for any awards or entitlements forfeited as a result of leaving their former employer (a 'Recruitment Award').

To ensure compliance with the HKLR, the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy awards granted under the PLTIP 2023 to a participant, when added to the number of Shares which may be issued under any other option or award over Shares granted in the preceding 12 months to that participant, may not exceed one per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time, unless approval by the Company's shareholders has been obtained in accordance with the HKLR.

Performance conditions

The vesting of awards may (and must, in the case of an award to an Executive Director other than a Recruitment Award, to the extent required by the Company's directors' remuneration policy in force from time to time) be subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions relating to the commercial or financial performance, shareholder return, business plan and/or strategic objectives of the Company. The Committee will determine the period over which any performance conditions are assessed. The Company's directors' remuneration policy currently requires that awards to Executive Directors are granted subject to performance conditions, except in the case of Recruitment Awards to allow the Committee, to the extent practicable, to replicate the terms and value of the awards or entitlements that the individual forfeited when leaving their former employer. Performance conditions are set on a case by case basis by the Committee to deliver performance, the Company's strategy and return for shareholders, thereby aligning the interests of participants with that of shareholders.

Any performance condition may be amended in accordance with its terms or if anything happens which causes the Committee to consider it appropriate to amend the performance conditions, provided that the Committee considers that any amended performance condition would not be materially less or more challenging to satisfy.

Vesting and release of awards

Awards which are subject to performance conditions will normally have those conditions assessed as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of the relevant performance period. The Committee will determine the extent to which awards will vest, taking into account the extent that any relevant performance conditions have been satisfied, the underlying performance of the Company and the participant and such other factors the Committee considers, in its opinion, relevant. To the extent that they vest, awards will then normally vest on the vesting date set by the Committee at grant. Vesting periods are set by the Committee with the purpose of retaining the talent required to deliver the Company's strategy.

The Committee may also determine at grant that an award is subject to an additional holding period following vesting, during which Shares subject to the award will not be delivered to participants and at the end of which the award will be 'released'.

Timing of awards

Awards can only be granted (i) during the 42 days beginning on: (a) the date the Company's shareholders approve the PLTIP 2023; (b) the first business day after the announcement of the Company's results for any period; (c) the day on which the Company's directors' remuneration policy (or any amendment to it) is approved by the Company's shareholders; or (d) to the extent that share dealing restrictions prevent the grant of awards in any of those three periods, the first business day on which such dealing restrictions are lifted; or (ii) on any other day on which the Committee determines that exceptional circumstances exist which justify the grant of an award.

Form of awards

The Committee may grant awards as conditional awards of Shares, forfeitable Shares or nil or nominal-cost options over Shares. No payment is required for the grant or vesting of an award, which is in line with UK market practice to allow participants to receive the full value of the Shares subject to an award. Awards structured as nil or nominal-cost options will normally be exercisable from the point of vesting (or, where an award is subject to a holding period, the point of release) until the tenth anniversary of the grant date.

Dividend equivalents

Unless the Committee determines otherwise, participants will receive an amount (in cash, unless the Committee decides it will be paid in Shares) equal to the value of any dividends which would have been paid on Shares subject to an award in respect of which the award vests by reference to record dates during the period beginning on the grant date and ending on the date on which the award vests or, ifthere is a holding period applicable to an award, is released. This amount may assume the reinvestment of dividends and exclude or include special dividends.

Source of shares and overall limits

Awards may be satisfied using new issue Shares, treasury Shares or Shares purchased in the market. The number of Shares to satisfy awards granted in any ten-year period which may be issued under the PLTIP 2023 and any other share plan adopted by the Company may not exceed 10 per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time. In addition, the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy awards granted in any ten-year period under the PLTIP 2023 and any other discretionary share plan adopted by the Company may not exceed 5 per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time.

Shares transferred out of treasury will count towards these limits for so long as this is required under institutional shareholder guidelines. However, awards which lapse will be disregarded for the purposes of these limits.

Malus and clawback

In certain circumstances, the Committee may at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of grant of an award (or, if an investigation into the conduct or actions of any participant or any member of the Group has started, such later date as the Committee may determine in order to allow the investigation to be completed): (a) cancel or reduce an award (to zero if appropriate); (b) impose additional conditions on an award; or (c) require that the participant either returns some or all of the Shares acquired under an award or makes a cash payment to the Company in respect of the Shares delivered. The Committee may invoke these malus and clawback provisions where it considers there are exceptional circumstances, such as:

(i)a material misstatement in the published results of a member of the Group;

(ii) an error in determining the number of Shares subject to an award or in assessing any performance conditions (as applicable);

(iii) the determination of the number of Shares subject to an award or the assessment of any performance conditions being based on inaccurate or misleading information;

(iv) gross misconduct on the part of the relevant participant;

(v) a breach by the relevant participant of any restrictive, confidentiality, or non-disparagement covenants or other similar undertakings;

(vi) the Committee determines a participant has caused a material loss for the Group as a result of (i) reckless, negligent or wilful actions or (ii) inappropriate values or behaviour;

(vii) where the Committee determines that the participant is responsible for or had management oversight over a member of the Group receiving censure by a regulatory body or suffering a significant detrimental impact on its reputation; or

(viii) the Company or a material proportion of the Group becoming insolvent or otherwise suffering corporate failure.

The presence of malus and clawback provisions aligns with the objective of the PLTIP 2023 by incentivising employees to deliver genuine and sustainable Company performance.

Cessation of employment

An unvested award will usually lapse upon a participant ceasing to be employed by or to hold office within the Group.

However, if a participant ceases to be an employee or director because of their ill-health, injury or disability, their employing company or business for which they work being sold out of the Group, retirement (with the Committee's agreement) or in other circumstances at the discretion of the Committee (ie they leave as a 'good leaver'), their award will not lapse and will continue to vest (and be released) on the date when it would have vested (and been released) if they had not ceased such employment or office.

The extent to which awards normally vest in these circumstances will be determined by the Committee, taking into account the satisfaction of any performance conditions applicable to awards measured over the original performance period, the underlying performance of the Company and the participant and such other factors the Committee considers, in its opinion, relevant.

The Committee retains discretion, however, to allow the award to vest (and be released) following the individual's cessation of office or employment, taking into account any applicable performance conditions measured up to that point or, where the participant is a 'good leaver' as a result of their employing company or business being sold out of the Group, to require that the award is exchanged for an equivalent award over shares in another company.

Unless the Committee decides otherwise, the extent to which an award vests will also take into account the proportion of the performance period (or, in the case of an award not subject to performance conditions, the vesting period) which has elapsed on the cessation of the participant's employment or office. The period over which a Recruitment Award will normally be time pro-rated will be determined at the time of grant and will normally replicate the approach to time pro-rating applied to the award in respect of which the Recruitment Award was granted.

If a participant passes away, their award will vest (and, in the case of an award subject to a holding period, be released) on the date they passed away on the basis set out for other 'good leavers' above. Alternatively, the Committee may decide that unvested awards will vest (and, in the case of an award subject to a holding period, be released) on the date they would have if the participant had not died on the basis set out for other 'good leavers' above.

If a participant ceases to be an officer or employee of the Group during a holding period in respect of an award for any reason other than summary dismissal, their award will normally be released at the end of the holding period, unless the Committee determines that it should be released on the cessation of their office or employment. If a participant passes away during the holding period, their award will be released on the date they passed away (unless the Committee decides they will be released at the end of the normal holding period). If a participant is summarily dismissed, any outstanding awards they hold will normally lapse immediately. Awards structured as nil or nominal-cost options which do not lapse may normally be exercised to the extent vested for a period of 12 months after vesting (or, where awards are subject to a holding period, the end of the holding period).

Where nil or nominal-cost options have already vested (and, where relevant, been released) on the date the participant ceases to hold employment or office, those options may normally be exercised for a period of 12 months from the date of cessation, unless the participant is summarily dismissed, in which case their options will normally lapse immediately. If a participant passes away, a vested (and, where relevant, released) option may normally be exercised until the expiry of the period of one year from the date the participant passed away.

Corporate events

In the event of a takeover of the Company, awards will normally vest (and be released) early. The proportion of any unvested awards which vest will be determined by the Committee, taking into account the extent to which any performance conditions applicable to awards have been satisfied, the underlying performance of the Company and the participant, such other factors the Committee considers, in its opinion, relevant, and, unless the Committee determines otherwise, the proportion of the performance period, or in the case of awards not subject to performance conditions, the vesting period, which has elapsed. The period over which a Recruitment Award will normally be time pro-rated will be determined at the time of grant and will normally replicate the approach to time pro-rating applied to the award in respect of which the Recruitment Award was granted. Awards structured as nil or nominal-cost options may then normally be exercised for a period of one month, after which they will lapse. Alternatively, the Committee may require that awards are exchanged for equivalent awards over shares in the acquiring company (subject to the acquiring company's consent).

If the Company is wound up or other corporate events occur such as a variation of the Company's share capital, a demerger, special dividend or other transaction which, in the Committee's opinion, would materially affect the value of Shares, the Committee may determine that awards will vest (and be released) on the same basis as for a takeover.

Cancellation

Except as described above (and unless the participant purports to transfer their award), there is no provision in the rules for the cancellation or reduction of awards granted.

Adjustments

In the event of a capitalisation issue, rights issue, sub-division or consolidation of Shares or reduction of capital, the Committee may make such adjustments to the number or class of Shares subject to awards and/or the exercise price applicable to awards as it considers appropriate.

Settlement

The Committee may, in its discretion, decide to satisfy an award with a cash payment equal to the market value of the Shares (less any exercise price payable in the case of an option) that the participant would have received had the award been satisfied with Shares.

3. Principal provisions of the ISSOSNE General

The ISSOSNE is designed to incentivise and retain individuals, such as insurance agents, who are not employees of the Group but who are closely connected with the Group. The ISSOSNE is similar in structure to the Sharesave 2023 and allows the Board to grant eligible individuals options to acquire Shares if they make regular savings under a savings contract. The ISSOSNE can be operated in and outside the United Kingdom and may be varied from country to country to take account of local practice, tax and exchange control and securities law requirements.

The ISSOSNE is a broad-based plan (in a form similar to the Sharesave 2023 – please see Section 1) intended to promote share ownership in the Company's wider workforce and to align the reward opportunities offered to the Company's employees and agents. The number of Shares participants may acquire is restricted by the amount of savings they make under the plan. The maximum amount of savings that a participant can make is, in turn, capped by savings limits prescribed in the ISSOSNE rules, which are no higher than the limits set out in the UK legislation governing the Sharesave 2023. The Company therefore considers it inappropriate to apply performance conditions or malus and clawback provisions to awards granted under the ISSOSNE.

Eligibility

Individuals will be eligible to be selected by the Board for participation in the ISSOSNE if they have been directly or indirectly engaged by, or connected with, a Group company under a contract for services or a similar arrangement. The Board's discretion to select high performing agents for participation in the ISSOSNE delivers the Company's objective of recruiting and retaining high calibre agents for the Group.

Timing of awards

Options may only be granted within the 42 days immediately following an announcement of the Company's results for any period or when the Board determines that exceptional circumstances exist which justify the grant of options.

Savings contributions

At the time of receiving options, participants must enter into a savings contract with a nominated savings institution under which participants agree to make monthly contributions in pounds sterling or, at the discretion of the Board, in a nominated currency. The maximum monthly contribution is £250 (or the equivalent amount in a nominated currency) or such higher amount as the Board may specify from time to time (which will not exceed the savings limits for the Sharesave 2023). The participant must select the date on which their savings will be repaid to them (the maturity date). The maturity date will normally be three or five years after commencement of the savings contract. The number of Shares over which a participant may be granted an option will be the number of Shares that can be acquired on the maturity date, at the exercise price, with the savings plus interest payable on that date. Participants do not pay for the grant of an option.

Overall and individual limits

The rules of the ISSOSNE provide that the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options or awards granted under the ISSOSNE and any other share plan adopted by the Company in any ten-year rolling period may not exceed 10 per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time.

In addition, to comply with the HKLR, the maximum number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options granted under the ISSOSNE to a participant who qualifies as a 'service provider' (as defined under the HKLR), when added to the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options or awards under any other share plan adopted by the Company in any 10-year rolling period may not exceed 2 per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time. This limit has been set at this level in order to allow for parity of treatment across the workforce between employees and agents and is appropriate and reasonable, in line with the practice of UK listed companies.

The maximum entitlement of each participant under the ISSOSNE for each option granted is limited to the total savings and interest accumulated under that participant's savings contract. In any event, the maximum number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options granted under the ISSOSNE to a participant, when added to the number of Shares which may be issued under any other option or award over Shares granted in the preceding 12 months to that participant, may not exceed one per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time, unless approval by the Company's shareholders has been obtained in accordance with the HKLR.

Exercise price

The exercise price of an option may not be less than 80 per cent of the arithmetic average of the middle-market quotation of a Share as derived from the London Stock Exchange Daily Official List (or, if the Board so determines, the daily quotations sheet of the HKSE) for three consecutive dealing days determined by the Board which fall within the period of 30 days immediately preceding the day on which the relevant option is granted.

Vesting and exercise of options

An option usually vests on the date that the related savings contract matures. An option may normally only be exercised during the six month period following the maturity date of the related savings contract. Exercise of the options does not depend on any performance conditions. At the Board's sole discretion, options may be settled with a payment in cash equal to the gain that the participant would have made on the exercise of the option.

The vesting period and exercise price for options granted under the ISSOSNE are determined on an equivalent basis to the vesting period and exercise price for options granted under the Sharesave 2023 (which are in line with the relevant UK legislation). This delivers on the Company's objective under these arrangements to ensure parity of treatment between agents and employees.

Options may vest earlier than on the date that the related savings contract matures in the circumstances described in the explanatory notes to Resolution 20.

Cessation of service

If a participant's contract for services ends or is terminated, the participant's option will automatically lapse unless the Board in its absolute discretion determines that the participant's option will not lapse and may be exercised before the maturity date on terms determined by the Board. If a participant passes away, their personal representatives may exercise their option for a period of 12 months from the date the participant passed away, unless the Board permits a longer exercise window (provided that such period of time does not end any later than the tenth anniversary of the date of grant).

Corporate events

Options may also be exercised in the event of a takeover of the Company (either by way of general offer, where the options may be exercisable for six months after the change of control, or by way of a UK scheme of arrangement, where the options may be exercisable from the court sanction date until the effective date of the scheme) or winding-up of the Company where the options may be exercisable within two months after the passing of the winding-up resolution. In certain circumstances on a takeover of the Company, options may instead be exchanged for options over shares in an acquiring company. In the event of a reorganisation of the Group, options will be exchanged for options in the new holding company. Except as described above (and in the event the participant purports to transfer their option), there is no provision in the rules for the cancellation of options granted but not exercised.

Adjustments

In the event of a capitalisation issue, rights issue, sub-division or consolidation of Shares or reduction of capital, the Board may make adjustments to the number of Shares under option and/or the exercise price in such manner as it determines.

4. Principal provisions of the Agency LTIP General

The Agency LTIP is a long term incentive plan, under which the Company may grant awards over Shares to incentivise and retain individuals, such as insurance agents, who are not employees of the Group but who are closely connected with the Group.

Eligibility

Individuals are eligible to be selected by the Committee to participate in the Agency LTIP if they have a contract of services with any member of the Group on a continuing or recurring basis. The Committee's discretion to select high performing agents for participation in the Agency LTIP delivers the Company's objective of recruiting and retaining high calibre agents for the Group.

Performance conditions

The vesting of awards may be subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions relating to the commercial or financial performance, shareholder return, business plan and/or strategic objectives of a member of the Group or a division or business unit thereof. The Committee will determine the period over which any performance conditions are assessed. Performance conditions are set on a case by case basis by the Committee to deliver performance, the Company's strategy and return for shareholders, thereby aligning the interests of participants with that of shareholders.

Any performance condition may be amended in accordance with itsterms or if anything happens which causes the Committee to consider it appropriate to amend the performance conditions, provided that the Committee considers that any amended performance condition would not be materially less or more challenging to satisfy.

Source of shares and limits

Awards granted under the Agency LTIP may be satisfied using new issue Shares. The number of Shares to satisfy awards granted in any ten-year rolling period which may be issued under the Agency LTIP and any other share plan adopted by the Company may not exceed 10 per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time. In addition, the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy awards granted in any 10-year rolling period under the Agency LTIP and any other discretionary share plan adopted by the Company may not exceed 5 per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time.

The number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy awards granted under the Agency LTIP to a participant, when added to the number of Shares which may be issued under any other option or award over Shares granted in the preceding 12 months to that participant, may not exceed one per cent of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time, unless approval by the Company's shareholders has been obtained in accordance with the HKLR.

In addition, the maximum number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy awards granted under the Agency LTIP to a participant who qualifies as a 'service provider' (as defined under the HKLR), when added to the number of Shares which may be issued to satisfy options or awards under any other share plan adopted by the Company in any 10-year rolling period may not exceed 2 per cent ofthe issued ordinary share capital of the Company from time to time. This limit has been set at this level in order to allow for parity oftreatment across the workforce between employees and agents and is appropriate and reasonable, in line with the practice of UK listed companies.

Vesting of awards

Awards will normally vest on the third anniversary of the grant date or such other date (no earlier than the first, and no later than the tenth, anniversary of the grant date) determined by the Committee. The extent to which awards will normally vest will be determined by the Committee, taking into account the satisfaction of any performance conditions applicable to awards, the underlying performance of the Company and such other factors the Committee considers relevant and appropriate (including the personal conduct and performance ofthe participant). Vesting periods are set by the Committee with the purpose of retaining the talent required to deliver the Company'sstrategy.

Awards may vest earlier than the original vesting date in the circumstances described in the explanatory notes to Resolution 22.

Timing of awards

Awards can only be granted within the period of 42 days beginning on: (i) the date of adoption of the Agency LTIP; (ii) the day after the announcement of the Company's results for any period; (iii) any day on which the Committee determines that exceptional circumstances exist which justify the grant of an award; (iv) any day on which changes to the legislation or regulations affecting the Agency LTIP are announced or effected; and (v) if share dealing restrictions prevent the grant of awards in any of those periods, the day after the date on which such dealing restrictions cease to apply.

Form of awards

The Committee may grant awards as conditional awards of Shares. No payment is required for the grant of an award, although participants are required to pay the nominal value of the Shares when awards vest. This aligns the Agency LTIP so far as possible with the PLTIP 2023 for which Group employees are eligible, except for the fact that agents must, as a matter of UK company law, pay up the nominal value of the Shares in order for Shares to be issued in satisfaction of awards.

Dividend equivalents

Awards may carry a right for participants to receive an amount (in cash and/or in Shares) equal to the value of any dividends which would have been paid on Shares subject to an award in respect of which the award vests by reference to record dates during the period beginning on the grant date and ending on the date an award vests. This amount will normally be calculated on the basis those dividends are reinvested in Shares.

Malus and clawback

Unvested awards may be subject to reduction (including to zero) if at any time prior to the vesting date (or, if the Committee considers that an investigation or review is required, such later date as the Committee may determine in order to allow the invitation or review be completed) the Committee determines in its discretion that:

(i)a business decision of the business unit in which a participant works has resulted in a material breach of law, regulation, code or practice or other applicable instrument;

(ii) there is a materially adverse restatement in the accounts of the business unit in which a participant works and/or of any member of the Group which is attributable to incorrect information about the affairs of that business unit;

(iii) any matter arises which affects (or may affect) the reputation of the Company or any member of the Group;

(iv) a participant's conduct has resulted in (or has the potential to cause) significant reputational or financial damage to a member of the Group and/or resulted in the material breach of law or the Group's business code of conduct; and/or

(v) the calculation of the number of Shares subject to an award or the assessment of any performance conditions or the determination of the extent to which an award vests was based on erroneous or misleading data or was otherwise incorrect.

Furthermore, awards may be subject to clawback if at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of grant of an award (or, if an investigation into the conduct or actions of any participant or any member of the Group has started, such later date as the Committee may determine in order to allow the investigation to be completed) the Committee determines in its discretion that:

(i)there is a materially adverse restatement of the Company's published accounts;

(ii) there is a material breach of law or regulation resulting in significant harm to the Company or its reputation;

(iii) the calculation of the number of Shares subject to an award or the assessment of any performance conditions or the determination of the extent to which an award vests was based on erroneous or misleading data or was otherwise incorrect; or

(iv) a participant's conduct has resulted in (or has the potential to cause) significant reputational or financial damage to a member of the Group and/or resulted in the material breach of law or the Group's business code of conduct.

The presence of malus and clawback provisions aligns with the objective of the Agency LTIP by incentivising employees to deliver genuine and sustainable Company performance.

Cessation of service

An unvested award will usually lapse upon a participant ceasing to be an agent within the Group. However, if a participant ceases to be an agent because of their injury or disability, the company with whom the participant is contracted with or business for which they provide services ceasing to be part of the Group, retirement or redundancy (ie they leave as a 'good leaver'), their award will not lapse and will

continue to vest on the date when it would have vested if they had not ceased to be an agent.

The extent to which awards normally vest in these circumstances will be determined by the Committee, taking into account (i) the satisfaction of any performance conditions applicable to awards, the underlying performance of the Company and such other factors the Committee considers relevant and appropriate (including the personal conduct and performance of the participant); and (ii) the proportion of the performance period (or, in the case of an award not subject to performance conditions, the vesting period) which has elapsed on the date the participant ceases to be an agent, unless the Committee determines otherwise. The Committee retains discretion, however, to allow the award to vest earlier following the individual ceasing to be an agent, on the basis set out for 'good leavers'. The Committee will use this discretion for 'good leavers' in connection with any participants who are subject to tax in the United States of America ('US Taxpayers') to allow awards to vest when the individual ceases to be an agent within the Group, in order to comply with US tax legislation. For participants who are US Taxpayers, if there is a delay due to the vesting conditions or dealing restrictions applicable to an award or if there is an investigation ongoing into malus circumstances which would postpone the satisfaction of an award beyond the period permissible by US tax legislation, the Committee may allow awards to vest to ensure compliance with that US tax legislation.

If a participant passes away, their award will vest on the date the Committee has been notified of the event and determined the extent the award will vest, on the basis set out for 'good leavers' above. If a participant ceases to be an agent for any other reason (other than summary dismissal), the Committee retains discretion to determine that their award will not lapse and will continue to vest on a date and to an extent determined by the Committee, on the basis set out for 'good leavers' above.

The Committee may in its discretion determine that any unvested awards be reduced (including to zero) if a participant ceases to be an agent (i) as a 'good leaver' due to retirement but has within five years of cessation secured a paid role outside the Group; or (ii) for any other reason and the Committee determines 'good leaver' treatment on the basis that the participant will not be seeking an alternative role with another company outside the Group which operates within the financial services sector or is of a size comparable to the Company, but has within five years of cessation secured such a paid role with such other company.

Corporate events

In the event of a takeover of the Company, the Committee may in its discretion decide whether awards will (i) vest early; (ii) be exchanged for broadly equivalent awards under any other share plan; (iii) be exchanged for awards on equivalent terms over shares in the acquiring company; or (iv) a combination of the preceding three options. If other corporate events occur such as a demerger, dividend in specie, special dividend or other transaction which, in the Committee's opinion, would affect the current or future value of awards, the Committee may determine that awards will vest on the same basis as for a takeover.

Cancellation

Except as described above (and unless the participant purports to transfer their award), there is no provision in the rules for the cancellation or reduction of awards granted.

Adjustments

In the event of a capitalisation issue, rights issue, sub-division or consolidation of Shares or reduction of capital, the Committee may make such adjustments to the number or class of Shares subject to awards as it considers appropriate.

Settlement

The Committee may, in its discretion, decide to satisfy an award with a cash payment equal to the market value of the Shares on the date of vesting.

5. Provisions common to the Prudential Plans

Purpose of plan

The purpose of the Prudential Plans is to incentivise and retain eligible employees (or, in the case of the ISSOSNE and Agency LTIP, eligible individuals and agents) of the Group through the grant of awards of, or options over, Shares.

Early vesting scenarios

Under the Prudential Plans as described above, awards (or, in the case of the Savings Plans, options) may vest early in the event of the participant leaving as a 'good leaver', the participant passing away or there being a takeover of the Company or a similar corporate event. Depending on the timing of those events, this may mean that the awards (or, in the case of the Savings Plans, options) may vest within 12 months from the grant date. The rationale for early vesting in these circumstances is as follows:

(i)in the case of a participant leaving as a 'good leaver', early vesting allows the participant in compassionate leaver circumstances, such as terminal illness, to receive the value of their award in a prompt fashion so they can benefit from it;

(ii) in the case of a participant passing away, early vesting allows for the timely winding-up of the participant's estate to their beneficiaries; and

(iii) in the case of a takeover or similar corporate event, early vesting allows participants to participate in the relevant transaction in the same way as ordinary shareholders, thereby aligning the interests ofshareholders and participants and allowing the acquirer on any such transaction to acquire 100 per cent control of the Company.

In the case of the Sharesave 2023, these early vesting events are required by the UK legislation governing the Sharesave 2023 and, for reasons of consistency and parity of treatment across the Savings Plans, such early vesting provisions are replicated in the ISSOSNE.

Recruitment Awards granted under the PLTIP 2023 may also vest within 12 months of the grant date when the original entitlements the individual forfeited by leaving their former employer would have vested within 12 months of the grant date of the Recruitment Award. This allows the Committee to compensate the individual fully and on the same terms for the value that they have lost by leaving their former employer, which in turn permits the Company to attract high calibre employees.

The Board and the Committee are both of the view that these early vesting events are in the best interests of the Company and align with the purpose of the Prudential Plans to incentivise, reward and retain employees and agents of the Group.

Except as described above and under sections 3 and 4 above, no options or awards granted under the Prudential Plans will vest within 12 months of the grant date.

Rights attaching to Shares

Shares subject to awards (or, in the case of the Sharesave 2023 and the ISSOSNE (together, the 'Savings Plans'), options) granted under the Prudential Plans will not confer shareholder rights (including any rights arising on a liquidation of the Company) on a participant until that participant has received the underlying Shares.

Amendments

The Board (or Committee, if applicable) may at any time amend any of the rules of the Prudential Plans and/or the terms of any awards (or, in the case of the Savings Plans, options) granted under the Prudential Plans in any respect.

In compliance with Note 1 to Rule 17.03(18) of the HKLR and applicable law and regulation in the UK, the prior approval of the Company's shareholders must be obtained in the case of any amendment which (a) is of a material nature; (b) changes the authority of the Board (or Committee, if applicable) to amend the rules of the Prudential Plans; or (c) is made to the advantage of eligible individuals and/or participants relating to certain provisions relating to (i) the purpose of the plan; (ii) participants of the plan and the basis of determining their eligibility; (iii) individual maximum entitlements and overall plan limits (and, in the case of the ISSOSNE and Agency LTIP, the service provider sublimit); (iv) the basis for determining the entitlement to, and the terms of, Shares (and, in the case of the PLTIP 2023 and Agency LTIP, cash) provided under the Prudential Plans, including any performance conditions and the determination of any exercise price; (v) the applicable vesting and exercise periods; (vi) any amounts payable on the grant, application, acceptance or exercise of awards (or, in the case of the Savings Plans, options) or, in the case of the Agency LTIP, upon vesting; (vii) the rights attaching to awards (or, in the case of the Savings Plans, options) or the underlying Shares; (viii) the life of the plan; (ix) any automatic lapse or cancellation triggers; (x) the adjustments that may be made in the event of any variation in the share capital of the Company; (xi) the restrictions on transferability of awards (or, in the case of the Savings Plans, options); (xii) any malus or clawback triggers under the PLTIP 2023 and Agency LTIP; (xiii) the treatment of subsisting options or Shares subject to an option in the event of early termination of the ISSOSNE; and/or (xiv) the rule relating to such prior approval.

There are, however, exceptions to this requirement to obtain shareholder approval for any minor amendments to benefit the administration of the relevant Prudential Plan, to take account of the provisions of any relevant legislation, or to obtain or maintain favourable tax, exchange control or regulatory treatment for any participant or member of the Group, provided that such amendment is in line with the HKLR.

Benefits not pensionable

Benefits received under the Prudential Plans are not pensionable.

Non-transferability

Awards (or, in the case of the Savings Plans, options) granted under the Prudential Plans are not transferable other than to the participant's personal representatives if the participant passes away.

Termination

No awards (or, in the case of the Savings Plans, options) may be granted under the Prudential Plans more than 10 years after the date the relevant Prudential Plan is approved by the Company's shareholders.

Trustees

No director of the Company is a trustee in relation to any of the Prudential Plans, nor do any directors of the Company have a direct or indirect interest in the trustees of the Company's employee or agent share trusts. The trustees of the Company's employee and agent share trusts are, in line with the expectations ofUK institutional shareholders, required to have waived their rights to vote on any Shares held in those trusts where the beneficial interest in those Shares is not being held for a particular individual.

Variation of share capital

References to variation of the Company's share capital in the above sections include references to a capitalisation issue, rights issue, sub-division or consolidation of shares or reduction of capital.

Summary of amendments to articles of association

Set out below is an explanation of the proposed principal amendments to the articles of association of the Company (the 'Articles'). These principal amendments include (i) changes required to comply with the core shareholder protection standards as set out in Appendix 3 to the Hong Kong Listing Rules (the 'HK Core Standards'); and (ii) updates to align the Articles with current market practice to enable efficient governance processes. The applicability of the HK Core Standards is a result of the Company's listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Other amendments, which are of a minor, technical or clarifying nature have not been included in the explanation below.

A copy of the articles of association proposed to be adopted by the Company pursuant to Resolution 29 (the 'New Articles') and a copy of the Articles marked to show all the changes proposed by Resolution 29 are available on the National Storage Mechanism from the date of this Notice and will be available for inspection at the Company's registered office at 1 Angel Court, London EC2R 7AG and at the Company's principal place of business in Hong Kong at 13th Floor, One International Finance Centre, 1 Harbour View Street, Central, Hong Kong until the time of the AGM. The New Articles will also be available on the Company's website at www.prudentialplc.com and at the place of the AGM from at least 15 minutes prior to the AGM until the conclusion of the AGM. Shareholders are encouraged to review the New Articles in their entirety.

1. General meetings at more than one place (Article 54)

The New Articles amend Article 54 to specify that, when a person attends or participates in a general meeting by means of an electronic facility, it is immaterial where they are or how they are able to communicate with others. The New Articles also remove the requirement for the chair to be present at the principal meeting place. These changes are intended to provide greater flexibility for the Company to hold general meetings at more than one place and to better facilitate a "hybrid" general meeting.

2. Hybrid general meetings (Article 55)

In line with current market practice, the New Articles clarify that it is the responsibility of the persons attending and participating in a hybrid general meeting by electronic means to have the necessary means to do so (e.g., the equipment necessary to access the Company's chosen online hosting platform for the general meeting) and that any inability to do so does not invalidate the meeting. These changes are intended to ensure that the business of a hybrid meeting can be carried out efficiently and with certainty as to its validity.

3. Other arrangements for viewing and hearing proceedings (Article 57)

The New Articles amend Article 57 to specify that the board may make arrangements "in its absolute discretion" for persons to view, hear and speak at a general meeting. This will allow the board sufficient flexibility to provide the most appropriate and, as technology develops, up-to-date means of shareholder participation for each general meeting of the Company.

4. Change in place/electronic platform and/or time of meeting (Article 60)

In line with current market practice, the New Articles amend Article 60 to allow the date, time and place of a postponed general meeting to be advertised, if practicable, in a manner that the board (in its absolute discretion) decide is most appropriate. This is opposed to the current method envisaged under the Articles, namely the placement of an advertisement in two newspapers having a national circulation. Such a method is considered outdated and impracticable where a meeting is to be postponed for only a short time. In practice, the Company would seek to advertise such postponement via RNS or other instant communication tools available.

5. Meaning of participate (Article 62)

In the New Articles, in line with text based electronic communication methods used on online hosting platforms, the right of a shareholder to participate in a hybrid general meeting has been expanded to include the "right to communicate by whatever means" during that hybrid general meeting.

6. Security at general meetings (Article 64)

The New Articles amend Article 64 to permit the board to consider the health and safety of those attending a general meeting, as well as the safety and/or security of the general meeting, in the making of arrangements for a general meeting. The Company places a great deal of importance on the health and safety of its shareholders and, as was observed during the COVID-19 pandemic, certain arrangements may be required to be put in place to safeguard this in the context of a general meeting.

7. Right to vote (Article 79)

The amendments to Article 79 are required by paragraph 14(4) ofthe HK Core Standards. The New Articles provide that a vote cast by a shareholder shall not be counted where the Company is aware that the Hong Kong Listing Rules require that shareholder to abstain or vote in a particular way for a resolution and that shareholder has voted in contravention of that requirement. The New Articles do not put in place any additional restrictions on the voting rights of a shareholder that are not already provided for under the Hong Kong Listing Rules.

8. Method of proxy appointment (Article 87)

The amendments to Article 87 are required by paragraph 19 of the HK Core Standards. The New Articles clarify that, where a shareholder is a clearing house or its nominee(s), such shareholder may appoint a representative or proxy for the purposes of a general meeting or any meeting of any class of the shareholders.

9. Forfeiture of unclaimed dividends (Article 167)

The New Articles amend Article 167 to (i) reduce the period of time that must elapse before an unclaimed dividend can be forfeited from 12 years to six years; and (ii) provide that, if the Company exercises its entitlement under Article 167 to sell shares held by an untraced shareholder, any outstanding dividend in respect of such share is forfeited and ceases to remain owing by the Company. These changes are consistent with evolving market practice, and seek to ensure the efficient resolution of untraced shareholdings and the limitation of associated administrative costs.

10. Inspection of records and registers (Article 171)

The amendments to Article 171 are required by paragraph 20 ofthe HK Core Standards. The New Articles set out the procedure for the inspection of branch registers in Hong Kong.

11. Notices deemed sent (Articles 182 and 183)

In line with market practice, the New Articles refer to notices and other documents being deemed "received" on the expiry of certain time periods. The change is intended to provide the necessary certainty concerning compliance with the notice requirements under applicable UK and Hong Kong law, as well as relevant investor guidelines.

12. Untraced shareholders (Article 190)

The New Articles reduce the period of time that must elapse before the Company is entitled to sell the shares of an untraced shareholder. The relevant period is reduced from 12 years to six years during which at least three dividends in respect of the shares in question have become due for payment and all dividend warrants and cheques which have been sent in respect of the shares in question have remained uncashed. As with the amendments to Article 167 (as described above), this change is consistent with evolving market practice, and seeks to ensure the efficient resolution of untraced shareholdings and the limitation of associated administrative costs.

13. Proceeds of sale (Article 193)

The New Articles reduce the period of time that must elapse before the net proceeds of a sale of the shares of an untraced shareholder are deemed forfeited by that untraced shareholder from six years to two years. As with the amendments to Articles 167 and 190 (as described above), these changes are consistent with evolving market practice, and seek to ensure the efficient resolution of untraced shareholdings and the limitation of associated administrative costs.

14. Gender neutral language

In line with Prudential's commitment to promoting diversity, inclusion and belonging, the New Articles use gender neutral language throughout.

15. Definitions

The New Articles make consequential amendments to Article 2 (Definitions) to reflect the other additions and amendments to the Articles described above.

Prudential plc is a holding company, some of whose subsidiaries are authorised and regulated, as applicable, by the Hong Kong Insurance Authority and other regulatory authorities. The Group is subject to a group-wide supervisory framework which is regulated by the Hong Kong Insurance Authority.

Prudential plc is not affiliated in any manner with Prudential Financial, Inc., a company whose principal place of business is in the United States of America, nor with The Prudential Assurance Company Limited, a subsidiary of M&G plc, a company incorporated in the United Kingdom.
