In line with the announcement made on 25 May 2022 Prudential plc entered into an agreement on 8 March 2023 with Mr Wadhwani to replace unvested awards forfeited as a consequence of joining Prudential plc on 25 February 2023.

Under the agreement Mr Wadhwani has been granted an option entitling him to receive a cash amount equal to the market value of a specified number of Prudential plc ordinary shares on the date of exercise, less an option price of HKD 0.48 (being the HKD equivalent of 5 pence per share, using a 20-day average FX rate up to the date Mr Wadhwani joined Prudential plc).

The option will vest on the dates detailed below:

Exercise Period	Number of notional Prudential plc shares

This replacement award has been made on a like-for-like basis, with the option exercisable in accordance with the original vesting timeframe which attached to the forfeited awards. Performance conditions apply where these were attached to the original awards.

This arrangement has been put in place in accordance with Rule 9.4.2 of the UK Listing Rules, which allows an individual scheme to be put in place to assist with the recruitment of an executive director, and is consistent with the Directors' Remuneration Policy.
