	(a)		US$25 billion payable in cash to the Seller at Completion (the “Cash Consideration”);
	(b)		a number of Purchaser Ordinary Shares calculated in accordance with clause 2.4 to be allotted and issued credited as fully paid to the Seller at Completion (the “Consideration Shares”);

In the event that the actual Sterling gross proceeds of the Rights Issue (the “Actual Sterling Gross Proceeds”) differ from the Expected Sterling Gross Proceeds, the Relevant Percentage shall be re-calculated as described above on the basis that the value to be inserted at (y) shall be the Actual Sterling Gross Proceeds rather than the Expected Sterling Gross Proceeds.

For the avoidance of doubt, this provision shall not allow the Purchaser to enter into negotiations with the Parent to modify the terms of the Mandatory Convertible Securities after the Completion Date (otherwise than in accordance with the Terms and Conditions of the Mandatory Convertible Securities).
2.7		At Completion, the Seller shall transfer and the Parent shall cause the Seller to transfer the Shares to the Purchaser.

	(d)		preparation of the Purchaser Prospectus, the Prudential Prospectus and the Circular;
	(e)		preparing, obtaining UKLA approval of and posting or publishing (as appropriate) any other document in connection with the matters mentioned at paragraphs (a) to (d) above,

which co-operation, information, documentation and assistance shall include:

	(a)		the provision of information about the Parent, the Seller, any of their respective Affiliates, the members of the AIA Group and any of their directors or managers;

		Prudential and the Purchaser further agree that all information and documentation provided by them pursuant to this clause 4.22 shall be prepared in good faith and shall not be misleading in any material respect.
4.23		Neither the Purchaser nor Prudential shall be in breach of any provision of this clause 4 in the event that the circumstances that would otherwise constitute a breach arise, directly or indirectly, as a result of a failure by the Seller and/or the Parent to comply with its obligations under clauses 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.7 or 4.21 or otherwise as a consequence of information on the AIA Group or the Parent or its Affiliates that is required not being made available to the Purchaser, Prudential and/or any Governmental Authority.
4.24		Neither the Seller nor the Parent shall be in breach of any provision of this clause 4 in the event that the circumstances that would otherwise constitute a

5.		Completion
5.1		On a date to be nominated by the Purchaser, being not later than five Business Days following the date on which the last of the Conditions has been satisfied or (if applicable) waived (other than those Conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at Completion, including the Conditions set out in clauses 3.1(d)(iii) and (iv), but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions at Completion), or on such other date as the parties may agree in writing, completion of the sale and purchase of the Shares (“Completion”) shall take place at the offices of Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, Tower 42, Old Broad Street, London, EC2N 1HQ or such other place or time as the parties may agree in writing (the date on which Completion takes place being the “Completion Date”).
5.2		As soon as reasonably practicable following the date on which all of the Conditions set out at clauses 3.1(a), (b), (c) and (d)(i) have been satisfied, Prudential shall arrange with the court a date for the hearing at which it will seek the sanction of the court to the Scheme of Arrangement and the confirmation of the court to the Prudential Reduction of Capital (the “Court Sanction Date”). Upon arranging such date, the Purchaser shall promptly give notice to the Parent of such date.

6.		Warranties
6.1		The Parent and the Seller hereby warrant to the Purchaser that (i) the Warranty set out in paragraph 12 of Schedule 1 (Warranties) is accurate as of February 23, 2010, (ii) the Warranties set out in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 11, and 13 of Schedule 1 (Warranties) are accurate as at the date of this agreement, and (iii) all other Warranties are accurate as at 1 November 2009, in each case subject to, and as qualified by, the Disclosure Letter. The Purchaser shall not be entitled to claim that any fact, matter or circumstance causes any of the Warranties to be breached if such fact, matter or circumstance is fairly disclosed (or deemed disclosed) in the Disclosure Letter or in any document delivered or deemed delivered with it.
6.2		The Purchaser shall notify the Parent and the Seller not more than 30 Business Days and not less than 10 Business Days in advance of the date that the Purchaser intends to be the Posting Date. Without prejudice to the Parent and the Seller’s obligations under clause 4.21, the Parent and the Seller shall: (a) between the date of receipt of such notice and the date falling 2 Business Days prior to the intended Posting Date so notified by the Purchaser (the “Additional Disclosure Date”), deliver to the Purchaser information (the “Additional Disclosure”) about any matter arising between the Signing Date and the Additional Disclosure Date that would have been required to be disclosed in the AIA Prospectus in order to make the Warranty set forth in paragraph 12 of Schedule 1 (Warranties) true and correct as of the Additional Disclosure Date as if it had been made as of the Additional Disclosure Date as soon as reasonably practicable after such information becomes available (it being understood that this obligation is not intended to require daily disclosure but rather disclosure as appropriate with a view to assisting with the preparation of the Purchaser Prospectus, Prudential Prospectus and Circular); and (b) on the Additional Disclosure Date, deliver to the Purchaser a letter addressed to the Purchaser from the Parent (the “Warranty Letter”), warranting to the Purchaser that, as of the Additional Disclosure Date, the Additional Disclosure, taken together with the AIA Prospectus, does not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that if the Parent and the Seller shall have complied with their obligations under this clause 6.2, and if the Posting Date does not occur on the date notified by the Purchaser, the Parent and the Seller shall have no

further obligation to provide any such information to the Purchaser under this clause 6.2.

6.3		Except for the Warranties, neither the Parent nor the Seller makes any representation or warranty of any kind or nature whatsoever, oral or written, express or implied, with respect to the Seller, the Company, the Company Subsidiaries, the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, the Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements, including any representation or warranty relating to the financial condition, results of operations, assets or liabilities of any of the foregoing entities. Except for the Warranties, the Parent and the Seller disclaim all liability and responsibility for any representations or warranties, whether made by the Parent, or any of its Affiliates or Representatives or any other Person, and any opinion, projection, forecast, advice, statement or information made, communicated or furnished (orally or in writing) to the Purchaser or its Affiliates or Representatives (including any opinion, projection, forecast, advice, statement or information that may have been or may be provided to the Purchaser by any Representative of the Parent or any of its Affiliates). Neither the Parent nor the Seller makes any representations or warranties to the Purchaser or any other Person regarding the probable success or profitability of the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (whether before or after Completion).
6.4		The Seller and the Parent undertake to disclose in writing to the Purchaser anything to the knowledge of the Parent that is or is reasonably likely to constitute:

	(a)		a breach of Warranty that, without giving effect to any limitations as to materiality or Material Adverse Change set forth therein, has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Change;
	(b)		a breach of the Parent’s covenants under clause 8.1 and/or Schedule 2 where any such breach is material in the context of the AIA Group taken as a whole; or
	(c)		a Material Adverse Change,

promptly upon it coming to the notice of the Seller or the Parent between the date of this agreement and the Completion Date (in the case of paragraph (a) or (b)) and the Admission Date (in the case of paragraph (c)).

6.5		The Seller and the Parent undertake, in the absence of fraud, that if any claim is made against them in connection with the sale of the Shares to the Purchaser, not to make any claim against any member of the AIA Group or any director, employee, agent or adviser of any such member on whom it may have relied before agreeing to any term of the Transaction Agreements or authorising any statement in the Disclosure Letter.
6.6		The Purchaser hereby warrants to the Parent and the Seller as at the date hereof as follows (the “Purchaser Warranties”):

	(a)		each of the Purchaser and Prudential is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation with full power and authority to conduct such business as it presently conducts, and has been in continuous existence since its incorporation;
	(b)		each of the Purchaser and Prudential has all requisite power to enter into and, subject to satisfaction of the Conditions, complete the transactions contemplated by and carry out its obligations under the Transaction Agreements to which it is a party. The execution and delivery by each of the Purchaser and Prudential of each of the Transaction Agreements to which it is a party, and, subject to satisfaction of the Conditions, the completion by each of the Purchaser and Prudential of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements, has been (or will be prior to Completion be) duly authorised by all requisite corporate or other similar action on the part of the Purchaser or Prudential. Each of the Transaction Agreements to which the Purchaser and Prudential is a party has been, or upon execution and delivery thereof, will be, duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser or Prudential as applicable;
	(c)		the execution and delivery by the Purchaser and Prudential of the Transaction Agreements do not, and the completion by the Purchaser or Prudential of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements to which each is a party will not, require any Governmental Approvals (other than those identified in Schedule 7 (Regulatory and anti-trust approvals)) or approval of Purchaser’s shareholders (other than the Purchaser’s Shareholder Approval) to be obtained or made by the Purchaser or Prudential, except for such notices, filings, exemptions or reviews, authorisations, consents or approvals that (i) would not give rise to a material liability in a jurisdiction material to the Purchaser Group or to criminal liability or (ii) of which the Purchaser was not aware after due enquiry;

	(d)		assuming due authorisation, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto or thereto, each of the Transaction Agreements to which the Purchaser or Prudential is a party constitutes, or upon execution and delivery thereof, will constitute, legal, valid and binding obligations of the Purchaser or Prudential, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. For purposes of this clause 6.6(d), the term “enforceable” means that the obligations in question are of a type which the English courts enforce and does not mean that those obligations necessarily will be enforced in accordance with their terms or be binding in all circumstances. In particular, enforcement may be subject to equitable principles, time-barring of claims and laws generally affecting the rights of creditors;
	(e)		the statement in the Announcement to the effect that the directors intend to make the Board Recommendation referred to in clause 4.12(a) was considered at a duly convened and held meeting of the board of directors or a committee of the directors of Prudential in light of, inter alia, such directors’ fiduciary and statutory duties under English law;
	(f)		the Purchaser has delivered to the Parent and the Seller in the agreed form certified copies of (i) an executed commitment letter, dated as of the date hereof (the “Underwriting Commitment Letter”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters relating to the commitment by the Underwriters to enter into a definitive agreement in the form set out in Schedule 4 to the Underwriting Commitment Letter (the “Underwriting Agreement”) pursuant to which the Underwriters would underwrite the Rights Issue (the “Underwriting”) in the aggregate amount of US$20 billion (net of costs, fees and expenses) pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, (ii) an executed $5,400,000,000 Bridge Facility Agreement between Prudential and the Debt Financiers, dated as of the date hereof (the “Bridge Credit Agreement”, and together with the Underwriting Commitment Letter, the “Commitments”, collectively referred to as the “Financing”);
	(g)		the Commitments are in full force and effect and are valid. The obligations of the parties thereto to fund the Commitments are not subject to any conditions other than as set forth in the Commitments. As of the Signing Date, no event has occurred that (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) would constitute a breach or default under the Commitments by the Purchaser or Prudential. Neither the Purchaser nor Prudential has any knowledge of any facts or circumstances that are reasonably likely to result in (i) any of the

			conditions set forth in the Commitments not being satisfied or (ii) the funding contemplated in the Commitments not being made available to the Purchaser on a timely basis in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this agreement;
	(h)		the Purchaser is not aware of any facts or conditions related to its regulatory or financial status (including pending or threatened proceedings, claims, judgments, orders, or legal administrative or arbitration proceedings or investigations by any Governmental Authority) that are reasonably likely to impede its ability to promptly obtain any Governmental Approvals necessary for it to comply in full with its obligations under the Transaction Agreements. In the past three years, in the East Asian jurisdictions in which the Purchaser operates: (a) neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates has been denied a Governmental Approval required in connection with any acquisition in any such jurisdiction; and (b) no license, permit or authorization issued to the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates by any Governmental Authority in any such jurisdiction has been suspended, terminated, withdrawn, suspended, revoked or non-renewed;
	(i)		the Consideration Shares, Mandatory Convertible Securities and the Purchaser Preferred Securities to be allotted and issued to the Seller at Completion will, when so allotted and issued, be free and clear of any and all Encumbrances;
	(j)		the Consideration Shares, Mandatory Convertible Securities and the Purchaser Preferred Securities will, on Completion, be duly and validly authorised and issued in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, not subject to any call for the payment of further capital, credited as fully paid and (save as set out in clause 16 of this agreement) free of all pre-emptive rights or other rights or restrictions on transfer or otherwise; and
	(k)		the Consideration Shares shall, when issued at Completion, rank pari passu with the ordinary in the capital of the Purchaser, including the right to receive all dividends declared made or paid with a dividend record date which falls after the Completion Date.

6.7

Except for the Purchaser Warranties and the Warranties, the parties and their respective Representatives:

	(a)		do not make any other representation or warranty of any kind or nature whatsoever, oral or written, express or implied, with respect to itself, its Affiliates, their respective businesses, the Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements; and
	(b)		disclaim all liability and responsibility for any other representations or warranties, whether made by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or their respective Representatives or any other Person, and all liability and responsibility for any other opinion, projection, forecast, advice, statement or information made, communicated or furnished (orally or in writing) to any party or its Affiliates or their respective Representatives (including any opinion, projection, forecast, advice, statement or information that may have been or may be provided to any party or its Affiliates or Representatives by any Representative of any party or any of its Affiliates or Representatives).

7.		Remedies, Termination and Termination Fee
7.1		With the exception of the Warranties set out in paragraphs 1, 2, 3 and 12 of Schedule 1 (Warranties) (Capacity, Title, Disclosure) and the warranty contained in the Warranty Letter, the Warranties and the Pre-Completion Covenants of the Parent and the Seller shall terminate at the Completion Date upon and subject to Completion having been executed in full in accordance with clause 5 and, save in relation to the Warranties set out in paragraphs 1, 2, 3 and 12 of Schedule 1 (Warranties) (Capacity, Title, Disclosure) and the warranty contained in the Warranty Letter, the Parent and the Seller shall have no liability with respect to the Warranties or the Pre-Completion Covenants of the Parent or the Seller after Completion; provided that with respect to the Disclosure Warranties, (a) such Disclosure Warranties shall survive only until the first anniversary of the Completion Date and shall terminate on such date (save in relation to Claims initiated prior to such date), (b) the aggregate Losses for which the Parent and the Seller shall be liable to the Purchaser in respect of all breaches of such Disclosure Warranties shall not exceed US$7,500,000,000, and (c) the Parent and the Seller shall have liability to the Purchaser in respect of any breach of such Disclosure Warranties only to the extent that the Parent and the Seller would have liability under the federal securities laws of the United States to investors in a transaction in which all of the Shares were sold by the Parent and the Seller to such investors (i) in the case of the Warranty set out at paragraph 12 of Schedule 1 (Warranties) by means of the AIA Prospectus, and (ii) in the case of the warranty contained in the Warranty Letter by means of the AIA Prospectus as updated by the information set out in the Additional Disclosure, in each case in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including, without limitation, a requirement that the Parent shall have acted with scienter

		in respect of such breach, and provided, further, that the liability of the Parent for breaches of its covenants contained in Schedule 2 (Conduct of Business Prior to Completion) shall survive Completion only to the extent such breaches continue following written notice thereof by the Purchaser and a reasonable time period for cure.
7.2		With the exceptions of the Purchaser Warranties set out in clauses 6.4(a), (b), (c), (d), (i), (j) and (k), the Purchaser Warranties and the Purchaser’s and Prudential’s Pre-Completion Covenants shall terminate at the Completion Date upon and subject to Completion having been executed in full in accordance with clause 5, and save in relation to the Purchaser Warranties set out in clauses 7.4(a), (b), (c) and (d), the Purchaser and Prudential shall have no liability with respect to the Purchaser Warranties or the Purchaser’s and Prudential’s Pre-Completion Covenants after Completion.
7.3		This agreement may be terminated prior to Completion:

	(a)		by the mutual written consent of the Parent, the Seller, the Purchaser and Prudential;
	(b)		by the Parent or the Seller, in the event that the Board Recommendation is clearly and definitively withdrawn or modified or qualified in any manner adverse to the Parent or the Seller in advance of the passage of the Resolutions by Prudential’s shareholders, provided that the right to terminate pursuant to this clause 7.3(b) shall expire in the event that (and with effect from) the Resolutions are (being) passed by Prudential’s shareholders;
	(c)		by any of the Parent, the Seller, the Purchaser or Prudential if Completion has not occurred on or before the date which is 12 months after the Signing Date (as may be extended pursuant to this clause, the “Long-Stop Date”); provided that, if the sole reason that Completion has not occurred is that any of the Governmental Approvals required pursuant to clause 3.1 have not been obtained on or prior to such date, or that the parties have begun taking any action pursuant to clause 4.9 that has not been completed but is capable of completion, any of the Parent, the Seller, the Purchaser or Prudential may extend the Long-Stop Date for an additional 90 days beyond the date which is 12 months after the Signing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Long-Stop Date is so extended, it shall not be capable of further extension without the mutual agreement of the parties;

	(d)		by any of the Parent, the Seller, the Purchaser or Prudential if Prudential’s shareholders have not passed the Resolutions at a duly convened and held general meeting of Prudential on or before the date that is 5 months after the Signing Date;
	(e)		by the Purchaser, if a breach of Warranty shall have occurred:

	(i)		that would cause the condition set forth in clause 3.1(f) not to be satisfied, only insofar as it is reasonably likely that such breach will not be cured by the earlier of the Long-Stop Date and the date falling 3 months after the date of such breach; or
	(ii)		except to the extent that (without giving effect to any limitations as to materiality or Material Adverse Change set forth therein) the failure or failures of the relevant Warranties to be true and correct when given in accordance with clause 6.1, individually or in the aggregate, has not had or would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change, and only insofar as it is reasonably likely that such breach will not be cured by the earlier of the Long Stop Date and the date falling 3 months after the date of such breach;

	(f)		by the Purchaser, if a breach of the Parent’s covenants under clause 8.1 shall have occurred that would cause the condition set forth in clause 3.1(h) not to be satisfied, only insofar as it is reasonably likely that such breach will not be cured by the earlier of the Long-Stop Date and the date falling 3 months after the date of such breach;
	(g)		by the Parent or the Seller, if a breach of Purchaser Warranty shall have occurred that would cause the condition set forth in clause 3.1(g) not to be satisfied, only insofar as it is reasonably likely that such breach will not be cured by the earlier of the Long-Stop Date and the date falling 3 months after the date of such breach;
	(h)		by the Purchaser, if a Material Adverse Change, or state of facts, circumstance, change, development, effect, event or occurrence which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change, occurs between the Signing Date and the Admission Date; provided, however, that the Purchaser may not terminate this agreement pursuant to this clause 7.3(h) at any time following the Admission Date;

	(i)		by the Parent or the Seller, if Completion shall not have occurred within five Business Days following the date on which the last of the Conditions has been satisfied or (if applicable) waived, or, with respect to those Conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at Completion including the Conditions at clause 3.1(d)(iii) and (iv), are capable of being satisfied at Completion, provided that at the time of such termination, the Parent and the Seller are prepared to proceed with Completion, including being prepared materially to comply with their respective obligations under Schedule 3 (Completion Arrangements); or
	(j)		by the Purchaser, if Completion shall not have occurred within five Business Days following the date on which the last of the Conditions has been satisfied or (if applicable) waived, or, with respect to those Conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at Completion including the Conditions at clause 3.1(d)(iii) and (iv), are capable of being satisfied at Completion, provided that at the time of such termination, the Purchaser is prepared to proceed with the Completion, including being prepared materially to comply with its obligations under Schedule 3 (Completion Arrangements).

7.4		Any party desiring to terminate this agreement pursuant to clause 7.3 shall give written notice of such termination to the other parties (except that the Parent does not need to give such notice to the Seller nor the Purchaser to Prudential and, in each case, vice versa).
7.5		In the event of the termination of this agreement pursuant to clause 7.3, this agreement shall terminate forthwith save that such termination shall be without prejudice to any accrued rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties as at the date of termination and without prejudice to any parties’ liability under this clause 7. The provisions set out in clauses 22, 27, 28, 31, 32, 33, 34, 36 and 37 of this agreement shall survive termination.
7.6		For the avoidance of doubt, and not in limitation of any other remedy or claim for damages to which any party hereto may be entitled in the event of any termination of this agreement, (i) in the event that this agreement is terminated pursuant to clause 7.3(i) as a result of a breach by the Purchaser of its obligation to proceed with Completion, Prudential shall be liable to the Parent and the Seller for any Losses resulting from such termination of this agreement, and (ii) in the event that this agreement is terminated pursuant to clause 7.3(j) as a result of a breach by the Parent or the Seller of their respective obligations to proceed with Completion, the Parent shall be liable to the Purchaser for any Losses resulting from such termination of this agreement.

7.7		Prudential agrees to pay to the Seller a fee equal to £152,569,000 (the “Termination Fee”) in the event that: (x) this agreement is terminated pursuant to clause 7.3(c) as a result of either the failure of the Conditions contained in clause 3.1(a) or in the event that the Rights Issue is not completed by the Long-Stop Date, (y) this agreement is terminated pursuant to clause 7.3(b) or 7.3(d), or (z) in the event that this agreement is terminated on or after the Long-Stop Date, and at the time of such termination, the Parent and the Seller had the right to terminate this agreement pursuant to clause 7.3(b) or 7.3(d), in each case, subject to clause 7.11; and provided that no Termination Fee will be payable if, at the time this agreement is terminated, the Purchaser had the right to terminate this agreement pursuant to clause 7.3(e) or 7.3(f).
7.8		If Prudential fails to promptly pay the Termination Fee when due, interest shall accrue on such amount from the date such payment was required to be paid pursuant to the terms of this agreement until the date of payment at the Interest Rate. If, in order to obtain such payment, the Parent and/or the Seller commences a suit that results in judgment for such party for such amount, the Purchaser shall pay the Parent and/or the Seller (as applicable) its (or their) reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with such suit.
7.9		Each of the parties hereto further acknowledges and agrees that the payment of the Termination Fee is not a penalty, and Prudential waives any right it may otherwise have to challenge the payment of the Termination Fee or as a penalty or as unenforceable in any way.
7.10		The Purchaser and Prudential on the one hand and the Seller and the Parent on the other acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in this clause 7 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this agreement and that, without these agreements, the other parties would not enter into this agreement.
7.11		The Termination Fee is payable as follows:

(a)

Save as provided in clause 7.11(f), an amount equal to the Termination Fee LESS an amount equal to the amount of VAT that Prudential or the representative member of the same group of companies for VAT purposes as Prudential (the “Representative Member”) would have to account for to HMRC in respect of a standard rated taxable supply by it for which the full amount of the Termination Fee were the consideration (the amount so deducted from the Termination Fee being the “Subtracted Amount”) shall be payable within ten Business Days of the applicable termination event referred to in clause 7.3.

	(b)		As soon as reasonably practicable after the Termination Fee has become payable under clause 7.7 above, Prudential shall, if no prior request has been made pursuant to clause 7.11(f), apply to HMRC for a ruling in accordance with then current HMRC practice that neither it nor the Representative Member is required to account for any VAT in respect of the Termination Fee (whether as a result of section 8 of the Value Added Tax Act 1994 or otherwise). If HMRC rules that neither Prudential nor the Representative Member is required to account for any VAT in respect of the Termination Fee, Prudential shall within ten Business Days of the receipt by it of the ruling pay to the Seller an amount equal to the Subtracted Amount.
	(c)		If HMRC rules that Prudential or the Representative Member is required to account for any VAT in respect of the Termination Fee, Prudential shall give written notice to the Seller of such ruling as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of such ruling and the Seller may, within ten Business Days of being so notified, give written notice to Prudential that it requires Prudential to obtain a review by HMRC of that ruling, in which case Prudential shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, request HMRC to undertake such a review. Upon Prudential’s being advised by HMRC of its decision arising out of the review, Prudential shall provide written notice to the Seller as soon as possible of that decision and, if the Seller disagrees with the decision, the Seller may within ten Business Days of being so notified give notice to Prudential that it requires Prudential to appeal that decision to the First Tier Tribunal provided that:

	(i)		the Seller indemnifies Prudential and the Representative Member to their reasonable satisfaction against all losses, costs, damages and expenses, including interest on overdue Tax, which may be incurred thereby; and
	(ii)		the Seller furnishes Prudential with a written opinion (obtained at the Seller’s expense) of leading tax counsel of at least ten years’ standing chosen by the Seller from a panel of at least three such counsel nominated by Prudential that the appeal would, on the balance of probabilities, be successful.

(d)

Within 15 Business Days of receipt by it: of the ruling referred to in clause 7.11(c); or, if the Seller shall have required a review of the ruling under that clause 7.11(c), of the receipt by Prudential of HMRC’s decision; or, if the Seller shall have required an appeal to be made to the First Tier Tribunal, of the First Tier Tribunal’s decision, Prudential shall pay to the Seller an amount equal to (i) so much of the

			VAT for which Prudential or the Representative Member is in accordance with the ruling of HMRC, the decision of HMRC or, as the case may be, the decision of the First Tier Tribunal, liable that Prudential in good faith determines that it or the Representative Member is entitled to credit for as input tax or (ii) if it is determined on such review, decision or appeal that neither Prudential nor the Representative Member is required to account for any VAT in respect of the Termination Fee, the Subtracted Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, Prudential shall have no liability to the Seller for any amount by which the aggregate amount payable under clause 7.11(a) above and this clause 7.11(d) is less than the Termination Fee.
	(e)		Prudential shall provide the Seller with a draft copy of any ruling, review or appeal application to be made in relation to the VAT treatment of the Termination Fee reasonably in advance of its proposed submission to HMRC or the First Tier Tribunal and shall ensure all reasonable comments of the Seller are reflected therein. Where there is any correspondence with HMRC or other documents are prepared in relation to such correspondence or a ruling or review (or any appeal in respect thereof) or where any meeting or telephone call is to take place with any representative or representatives of HMRC in relation to a such ruling, review or appeal, Prudential shall:

	(i)		as promptly as reasonably practicable send copies of all such correspondence received and copies of all draft replies and other such prepared documents to the Seller (in each case to the extent that it relates or they relate to the Termination Fee) and shall give the Seller an opportunity to make comments thereon a reasonable time in advance of their submission to HMRC; and
	(ii)		give reasonable advance notice of any such meeting to the Seller, it is hereby agreed that the Seller shall be entitled to nominate a person or persons to attend and participate in such meeting or call.

(f)

At any time before the Termination Fee becomes payable under clause 7.7 above, the Seller may by written notice require that Prudential applies as soon as reasonably practicable to HMRC for a ruling in accordance with then current HMRC practice that neither it nor the Representative Member would be required to account for any VAT in respect of the Termination Fee if it were paid (including under section 8 of the Value Added Tax Act 1994). If such a request is made, then:

	(i)		if the Termination Fee becomes payable under clause 7.7 above, and before the due date for payment under clause 7.11(a), HMRC rule that neither Prudential nor the Representative Member would be required to account for VAT in respect of the Termination Fee, Prudential shall as soon as reasonably practicable give written notice to the Seller of such ruling and no amount may be subtracted from the Termination Fee pursuant to clause 7.11(a) (unless Prudential reasonably believes that the ruling may no longer be binding upon HMRC as a result of a change of Law, in which case clause 7.11(b) above shall apply as if the words ‘, if no prior request has been made pursuant to clause 7.11(f),’ were omitted). If the Termination Fee becomes payable under clause 7.7 above and such ruling is received on or after the due date for payment under clause 7.11(a)above, clause 7.11(b) shall apply as though such ruling had been obtained pursuant to that clause;
	(ii)		if HMRC rule that Prudential or the Representative Member would be required to account for any VAT in respect of the Termination Fee if it were paid, Prudential shall as soon as reasonably practicable give written notice to the Seller of such ruling and the Seller and Prudential shall in good faith negotiate to determine whether there is an alternative transaction which the Seller and Prudential could undertake which would, if a termination event referred to in clause 7.3 occurred, put them in the same position as they would have been in if the Termination Fee payable in respect of such termination event could have been paid with no VAT (or a lower VAT) liability arising in respect of it. If the Seller and Prudential agree that there is such an alternative transaction and if a termination event referred to in clause 7.3 occurs such that, absent this clause 7.11(f)(ii) the Termination Fee would have become payable, the Termination Fee shall not be payable and the Seller and Prudential shall effect the agreed transaction. If within fifteen Business Days of the Seller’s being so notified by Prudential no such agreement has been reached then the remaining provisions of this clause 7.11 (excluding 7.11(b)) shall apply as appropriate (save that the ten Business Day period first mentioned in clause 7.11(c) shall be treated as commencing at the end of such fifteen Business Day period). For the avoidance of doubt, the payment of the Termination Fee or the Late Completion Adjustment Amount shall not relieve any party of any liability for fraud or for any breach of any covenant or obligation in this agreement (including any breach of any covenant or obligation giving rise to payment of such Termination Fee or Late Completion Adjustment

Amount), the parties may seek to recover any additional or other damages to which they are entitled in a circumstance in which the Termination Fee or the Late Completion Adjustment Amount is payable.

7.12		In the event that Completion occurs after August 31, 2010, the Cash Consideration payable by the Purchaser to the Seller for the Shares shall be increased by an amount (the “Late Completion Adjustment Amount”) equal to 5/1200ths of the Cash Consideration outstanding per month, from September 1, 2010 through the Completion Date. The Late Completion Adjustment Amount shall be without prejudice to any rights and remedies available to the Seller.

Announcement Date:		1 March 2010
Closing Date:		Completion Date
Status:		The Issuer’s obligations under the Notes with respect to payment of Fixed Coupon Amounts (as defined below) will rank (i) subordinated to the claims of all Senior Creditors (unsubordinated creditors and subordinated creditors whose claims are expressed to constitute Tier 2 capital); (ii) pari passu with all other obligations of the Issuer which constitute (or would constitute but for any applicable limitation on the amount of such capital) Tier 1 capital and with the most senior class of issued preference shares of the Issuer (the “Parity Securities”); and (iii) senior to the issued ordinary share capital of the Issuer.
		The Issuer’s obligations under the Notes with respect to principal, any amount (including any claim for damages) as a result of or arising from the Issuer’s failure or inability to deliver Shares and payment of Floating Coupon Amounts (as defined below) will rank pari passu with the Shareholders of the Issuer.
		By acceptance of the Notes, each Holder of the Notes and the Trustee, on behalf of such Holders, will be deemed to have waived any right of set-off or counterclaim that such Holders might otherwise have against the Issuer whether prior to or in bankruptcy or winding-up.

Issue Price:		100% (i.e. USD 100,000 per Note)
Maturity Date:		Perpetual
Mandatory Conversion Date:		The date falling on the third anniversary of the Closing Date.
		Unless previously purchased and cancelled or converted, each Note will be mandatorily and automatically converted on the Mandatory Conversion Date for such number of Shares as results from the calculation described in “Mandatory Conversion on the Mandatory Conversion Date” below.

		•   A USD amount per Note (“Fixed Coupon Amount”) equal to 3.75% per annum times the Denomination, payable semi-annually in arrear on 23 September and 23 March of each year (each a “Fixed Coupon Payment Date”), starting on the first such Fixed Coupon Payment Date falling after the Closing Date (and a broken Fixed Coupon Amount shall be paid on the first Fixed Coupon Payment Date); plus
		•   Each Note will entitle its Holder to receive an amount equal to any Excess Cash Distribution (the “Floating Coupon Amount”) made by the Issuer to holders of its Shares, such amount to be paid in relation to each Note by reference to such number of Shares which would be deliverable as at the date

Summary Terms and Conditions

		of payment of the Cash Distribution which gives rise to the relevant Excess Cash Distribution, upon conversion of such Note at the Maximum Conversion Ratio prevailing as at such date. Such amounts, if any, are payable in GBP or USD (converted, if necessary, into USD at the spot rate published at 11am (London time) on the Bloomberg page GBP Crncy HP on the payment date of the Cash Distribution) on a date (the “Floating Coupon Payment Date”) falling not more than five (5) Business Days following the date on which the Cash Distribution which gives rise to the relevant Excess Cash Distribution is paid.
		“Excess Cash Distribution” means the portion by which any Cash Distribution charged or provided for in the standalone accounts of the Issuer for any financial year, together with the amount per Share of the aggregate of any other Cash Distributions on the Shares charged or provided for in the standalone accounts for such financial year (disregarding for such purposes any amount previously determined to be an Excess Cash Distribution in respect of such financial year) exceeds the amount shown in the table below in respect of such financial year:
		In respect of the financial year ending:

31 December 2010:		GBP 0.2055 per Share
31 December 2011:		GBP 0.2055 per Share
31 December 2012:		GBP 0.2055 per Share
31 December 2013:		GBP 0.0700 per Share, but only in respect of Cash Distributions paid or distributed prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date

		For the avoidance of doubt, the Notes will not pay a Floating Coupon Amount in respect of the final dividend paid for in respect of the financial year ending on 31 December 2009.
Coupon Limitations:		The Issuer must pay the Fixed Coupon Amount on each Compulsory Coupon Payment Date and may elect to not pay the Fixed Coupon Amount on any Optional Coupon Payment Date.
		In the event of non-payment of the Fixed Coupon Amount, the Minimum Conversion Price and Maximum Conversion Price shall each be adjusted by being divided by one plus the fraction having its numerator (i) the unpaid Fixed Coupon Amount divided by the Maximum Conversion Ratio, and having as its denominator (ii) the arithmetic average of the Volume Weighted Average Share Price (the “VWAP”) of the Shares on the London Stock Exchange (converted, if necessary, into USD at the spot rate published at 11am (London time) on the Bloomberg page GBP Crncy HP on the relevant Trading Day) on each of the five consecutive Trading Days beginning on the third Trading Day immediately following the giving of notice by the Issuer to Holders that any scheduled payment of a Fixed Coupon Amount will not be made. Such an adjustment shall only become effective if no other Parity Security or Junior Security is subject to a dividend and capital restriction similar to the one described in “Dividend and Capital Restriction” below (the date on which the circumstances giving rise to such restriction as described in “Dividend and Capital Restriction” below ceasing to exist or continue being the “Effective Date”).
		In case of a voluntary or mandatory conversion of a Note before the Effective Date, the Holder of such Note shall be entitled to the number of additional Shares which the Holder would have been entitled to if such adjustment had become effective before the relevant voluntary or mandatory conversion date (the “Fixed Coupon Deferred Shares”). The Issuer shall issue such additional shares on the latter to occur of: (a) 5 Trading Days after the Effective Date; and (b) the date of such mandatory or voluntary conversion. The Anti-dilution provisions (described below) shall apply to such an Additional Share Entitlement Certificate mutatis mutandis.
Compulsory Coupon Payment Date:		Any Fixed Coupon Amount payment date on which the Issuer satisfies the Solvency Condition and that is not an Optional Coupon Payment Date.
Optional Coupon Payment Date:		Any Fixed Coupon Amount payment date prior to and in respect of which the Issuer determines that, as at such Fixed Coupon Payment Date, the Capital Adequacy Condition will not be met; or it is required under the terms of any Parity
