(iv) procuring that any relevant Group Company does likewise; and

(v) bearing its own Costs and the Costs of any Group Company in connection with such novation; and

(C) to the extent the transferring company is not able to assign the benefit of an Outstanding Agreement under clause 9.3(B) and such Outstanding Agreement is a licence of Intellectual Property Rights or know-how pursuant to which the transferring company is entitled to sub-license to the receiving company, the transferring company shall, if so required by the receiving company in writing, sub-license to the receiving company under that Outstanding Agreement to the extent it is able so to do;

21

(D) unless and until any assignment or sub-licence pursuant to clause 9.3(B) or clause 9.3(C) above has taken place, the transferring company shall take such action as the receiving company may reasonably require in writing to enforce for the benefit of the receiving company such Outstanding Agreement against the other parties to it or to defend or settle for the benefit of the receiving company any action or claim brought or made by any person entitled to the benefit of such Outstanding Agreement; and

(E) save as is otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement in relation to Costs, Prudential or Xxxxxxx (as the case may be, being either itself, or the parent of, the receiving company) covenants to pay the other party or the relevant member of that party’s Group on an after-Tax basis an amount equal to any losses, liabilities and Costs suffered or incurred by the transferring company or any other member of that party’s Group in pursuance of this clause 9.3 or otherwise in relation to such Outstanding Agreement.

9.4 If following Completion there are any agreements or contractual arrangements with third parties which have been entered into by any Prudential Group Company or by any Xxxxxxx Group Company in relation to matters which relate to both the Prudential Business and the Xxxxxxx Business, then Prudential and Xxxxxxx shall use all reasonable endeavours to procure, so far as is practicable or desirable to both, either that:

10.10 Each party shall consider in good faith any request for Corporate Data or Corporate Personal Data which would have fallen within the scope of clause 10.1 but for the fact that the request was made more than 7 years after Completion, in the case of Corporate Data, or more than 5 years after Completion, in the case of Corporate Personal Data.

16.1 Subject to clauses 9 and 23.3 after Completion, if a party notifies the other party that any property, business or other asset (whether tangible or intangible, and including rights pursuant to any contracts, arrangements and undertakings, but excluding rights to PRUDENTIAL/PRU Names and Marks) or rights in Business Information, which were either: (i) used prior to Completion exclusively by any Xxxxxxx Group Company in the Xxxxxxx Business; or (ii) properly should be regarded as part of the Xxxxxxx Business, are owned or possessed by any Prudential Group Company, then:

(A) Prudential or such other Prudential Group Company shall immediately procure that the relevant interest in such property, business, asset or right in Business Information is preserved and not exploited pending transfer pursuant to sub-clause (B); and

30

If the relevant property, business, asset or right in Business Information was not used prior to Completion exclusively by a Xxxxxxx Group Company in the Xxxxxxx Business but was also used in part by a Prudential Group Company in the Prudential Business, then this clause 16.1 shall apply but shall be modified as appropriate so as to transfer and assign only the relevant part of the property, business, asset or right in Business Information to the relevant Xxxxxxx Group Company by severance or some other appropriate means (including, without limitation, by way of a licence).

(A) Xxxxxxx or such other Xxxxxxx Group Company shall immediately procure that the relevant interest in such property, business, asset or right in Business Information is preserved and not exploited pending transfer pursuant to sub-clause (B); and

(B) Xxxxxxx shall transfer or assign, or procure that any other Xxxxxxx Group Company shall transfer or assign, its interest in such property, business, asset or right in Business Information to Prudential, or such other Prudential Group Company as Prudential shall nominate, for no consideration.

Save with respect to any rights in the PRUDENTIAL/PRU Names and Marks, if the relevant property, business, asset or right in Business Information was not used prior to Completion exclusively by a Prudential Group Company in the Prudential Business but was also used in part by a Xxxxxxx Group Company in the Xxxxxxx Business, then this clause 16.2 shall apply but shall be modified as appropriate so as to transfer and assign only the relevant part of the property, business, asset or right in Business Information to the relevant Prudential Group Company by severance or some other appropriate means (including, without limitation, by way of a licence).

17. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

17.2 Upon a Dispute Notice being given, the Dispute shall be resolved as follows:

(A) the other party shall within 20 days of its receipt of the Dispute Notice provide a notice in writing to the Separation Committee setting out its response to the Dispute Notice, including reasonable particulars of any objections to the Dispute Notice (the “Response Notice”). The Separation Committee shall consider the Dispute Notice and the Response Notice reasonably and in good faith in order to seek to resolve the Dispute;

31

(B) if the Dispute remains unresolved within 40 days of the Response Notice having been received by the Separation Committee (or, in the event that no Response Notice is received, within 60 days of the Dispute Notice being given), or such other period as the parties may mutually agree in writing, then the parties shall refer the Dispute to the CEO of each of Prudential and Xxxxxxx, who shall each use their respective best endeavours to resolve the Dispute in accordance with the intentions behind this Agreement; and

(C) if after the expiry of 30 days, or such other period as the parties may mutually agree in writing, from such referral under sub-clause (B) the Dispute remains unresolved, the relevant party shall then be entitled to bring legal proceedings.

SCHEDULE 3

PROVISIONS ON CLAIMS UNDER THE MUTUAL INDEMNITIES

It is agreed between Prudential and Xxxxxxx that, if either Prudential or Xxxxxxx (or any of their respective Group Companies) (each, an “Indemnified Party”) gives notice to another such party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim against the Indemnifying Party under the Mutual Indemnities or any Indemnified Party becomes aware of any claim against it or any other fact or circumstance which, if substantiated, will or might give rise to a claim against the Indemnifying Party under the Mutual Indemnities, then the following provisions of this Schedule 3 shall apply:

1. The Indemnified Party shall as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within 20 Business Days of the Indemnified Party first becoming aware that a matter constitutes a claim against the Indemnifying Party) give notice and available details thereof to the Indemnifying Party and shall consult with the Indemnifying Party with respect thereto. If any Indemnified Party fails to give notice promptly as required, any claim by the Indemnified Party hereunder shall be reduced to the extent that such failure can be shown to have increased the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party or to any other person.

2. Any notice given by an Indemnified Party pursuant to paragraph 1 shall be in writing and shall specify in reasonable detail:

(A) the basis upon which it is considered there is an entitlement to indemnification;

(B) the members of the Indemnified Party’s Group considered to have suffered or incurred losses;

(C) the identity of any third parties involved; and

(D) insofar as it is reasonably practicable to determine the same (but without prejudice to the final determination of the amount to be indemnified in respect thereof), an estimate of the monetary amount of the losses which the Indemnified Party reasonably expects to be suffered or incurred by such Indemnified Party or any member of its Group and in respect of which it is considered such Indemnified Party is or will be entitled to indemnification.

3. Prudential and Xxxxxxx shall endeavour to agree within 60 days of receipt of a notice pursuant to paragraph 1:

(A) the basis upon which there is or may be an entitlement to indemnification; and

(B) to the extent practicable the quantification or the basis of quantification of the indemnification in respect of losses identified in the notice referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2;

and if they cannot so agree any entitlement to indemnification shall be determined pursuant to clause 17 (Dispute Resolution).

45

4. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Schedule 3, the Indemnified Party shall provide and shall procure that each of its subsidiary undertakings shall provide to the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisers and agents reasonable access to premises and personnel and to any relevant documents and records within its possession or control (with the right to copy the same at the Indemnifying Party’s own expense) save for any documents or records which are the subject of legal or professional privilege, for the purpose of investigating such claim or potential claim or enabling the Indemnifying Party to remedy or avert such breach or matter or to avoid, dispute, resist, appeal, compromise, defend, mitigate or determine the amount of any such claim, subject to the Indemnifying Party procuring that it and its professional advisers and agents keep such information confidential and subject to applicable DP Laws (save for the purposes of, and to the extent necessary for, defending or contesting the matter which is the subject of the relevant indemnity claim).

5. The Indemnified Party shall and shall procure that each of its subsidiary undertakings shall take such action as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request to allow the Indemnifying Party the opportunity to remedy or avert such breach or matter or to avoid, dispute, resist, appeal, compromise, defend or mitigate any claim which would or might give rise to a claim against the Indemnifying Party under the relevant Mutual Indemnities or any matter which would or might give rise to such a claim or matter and shall, in connection with any proceedings related to any such claim or matter, use professional advisers nominated by the Indemnifying Party in relation thereto or, if the Indemnifying Party so requests, allow the Indemnifying Party the exclusive conduct thereof, in each case on the basis that the Indemnified Party shall be fully indemnified by the Indemnifying Party for all liabilities, obligations and Costs reasonably incurred as a result of any such request by the Indemnifying Party and on the basis that the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party reasonably informed on matters relating to the proceedings.

6. The Indemnified Party shall not, and shall procure that none of its subsidiary undertakings shall, make an admission of liability, agreement, compromise or settle any claim or matter which would or might give rise to a claim against the Indemnifying Party under the Mutual Indemnities without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

7. Prudential and Xxxxxxx may enter into agreements or other arrangements providing for the set-off of payments due to be made by way of indemnification by both Prudential and Xxxxxxx. The obligations of either party in respect of any particular losses indemnified under the Mutual Indemnities shall be deemed to have been fully discharged where the amount agreed by the parties to be payable in respect of such loss is paid or taken into account in arriving at any net amount payable by or on behalf of one to the other. For the purpose of this paragraph 7, the amount payable in respect of a loss under the Mutual Indemnities shall be taken to be agreed if it has been determined in accordance with the provisions of clause 17 (Dispute Resolution).

8. Without prejudice to the provisions of any applicable insurance policies, Prudential and Xxxxxxx shall each take all reasonable steps to mitigate any losses of any of the members of their respective Group which might give rise to a claim to be entitled to indemnification under the Mutual Indemnities.

9. Without prejudice to any recourse which either party may have against any member of the Other Group (including without limitation any entitlement it may have to be indemnified under the Mutual Indemnities), each of the parties hereby waives any claim (arising before Completion) which it may have against any employee or former employee who is or was

46

employed by any company in the Other Group or who is or was employed by a body corporate which is not a member of the Other Group but who is or was employed in the conduct of the Prudential Business or the Xxxxxxx Business (as applicable) arising out of their employment save insofar as such claim relates to allegations of fraud on the part of such employee or former employee and save in the context of a claim by or on behalf of that employee against that party (or a member of that party’s Group) or the trustees or managers of a retirement benefits scheme of that party (or of a member of that party’s Group).

10. Limitations on liability

10.1 Time limits

No liability shall arise in respect of any claim or claims under this Schedule 3 unless the Indemnified Party has notified the Indemnifying Party of the relevant claim, stating in reasonable detail the nature of the claim and, so far as reasonably practicable, an estimate of the amount claimed:

(A) in respect of any claim or claims related to Tax, on or before the date falling 7 years after the date of Completion; and

(B) in respect of any other claim or claims, on or before the date falling 6 years after the date of Completion.

(C) Monetary limits

(D) No liability shall arise in respect of any claim or claims under this Schedule 3:

(i) in respect of any individual claim (or series of related claims with respect to related facts or circumstances) for less than $100,000; and

(ii) unless and until the aggregate of all claims (disregarding any claims excluded by paragraph 10.1(D)(i) above) for which the Indemnifying Party is liable under this Schedule 3 exceed $1,000,000, but once the aggregate amount of all such claims has exceeded such sum, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable in respect of the full amount of such claims and not the amount by which such sum is exceeded.

(E) Any amounts for which a party is liable to the other party under this Schedule 3 shall be recorded under the name of the claiming party on a list agreed between Prudential and Xxxxxxx. At the end of each six month period, the aggregate amounts for which the respective parties are liable shall be set off against each other and an adjusting payment shall be made to the party who retains a positive balance of losses. Each of Prudential and Xxxxxxx shall then begin the next six month period with a zero balance of losses for the purposes of the above procedure.

47

10.2 Insured claims

(A) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement (but subject to sub-paragraph (B) below), where any Indemnified Party or any member of such Indemnified Party’s Group has insurance cover in respect of any losses it may suffer or incur, the Mutual Indemnities shall apply only to the extent that the losses so suffered or incurred exceed, and shall not include, the amount which the relevant Indemnified Party or any member of such Indemnified Party’s Group is entitled to recover from the relevant insurer or insurers. However, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this sub-paragraph (A), any losses recovered or recoverable from the relevant insurer or insurers shall count towards the calculation of the amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (B).

(B) Notwithstanding sub-paragraph (A), if the relevant Indemnified Party or any member of such Indemnified Party’s Group has not actually received from the relevant insurer or insurers the full amount of its losses, or such part thereof as is within the limits of the relevant insurances, within 12 months of the Insurance Date, the Mutual Indemnities will extend to cover indemnification in respect of the losses in question or such part thereof as is within the limits of the relevant insurances. Such extension of the Mutual Indemnities is conditional on that Indemnified Party, at the option of the Indemnifying Party, either (a) diligently undertaking and pursuing proceedings against the relevant insurer or insurers at the reasonable direction and expense of the Indemnifying Party and accounting to the Indemnifying Party for the net amount recovered, after deducting reasonable Costs of recovery, or (b) assigning or causing there to be assigned to the Indemnifying Party all the rights and claims against the relevant insurer or insurers of the Indemnified Party and the members of its Group.

(i) to assign to the Indemnifying Party the conduct of such claim; or

(ii) to:

(a) take all reasonable steps to enforce such claim against such third party; and

(b) reimburse to the Indemnifying Party the net amount, after deducting Costs of recovery and any Tax thereon (or any Tax which would have been chargeable thereon but for a Relief), recovered from such third party in respect of such claim to the extent that such Indemnifying Party has paid an amount in relation to such indemnity to such Indemnified Party in respect of the matters the subject of such claim.

48

(B) The Costs of the Indemnified Party incurred in enforcing any claim against any third party as is referred to in sub-paragraph (A) shall form a part of the entitlement to be indemnified.

(C) In any event, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled at any stage and at its sole discretion to settle any such third party assessment or claim. The Parties agree to take into consideration the terms and conditions of any relevant insurance policy.

(D) The provisions of this paragraph 11 shall only apply in respect of a claim or series of connected claims if the aggregate amount claimed by the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim or series of connected claims is greater than $1,000,000.

(E) Neither Prudential nor Xxxxxxx shall be required under this paragraph 11 to take any steps in relation to any claim or possible claim against any third party if it reasonably considers that the taking of such steps would or would be reasonably likely to cause material damage to any business relationship it has with that third party or with any other person.

12. Effect of waiver, release, etc.

Any obligation or liability of an Indemnifying Party in respect of any claim of an Indemnified Party to be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement may in whole or in part be released, compounded or compromised, by time or indulgence given by an Indemnified Party in its absolute discretion without in any way prejudicing or affecting its rights under this Agreement in relation to any other claim or matter or any other rights it may have.

13. No liability if loss is otherwise compensated for

(A) The Indemnified Party and those deriving title from the Indemnified Party on or after Completion shall not be entitled to recover damages or otherwise obtain reimbursement or restitution more than once between them in respect of any individual claim under the Mutual Indemnities.

(B) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim under the Mutual Indemnities to the extent that the subject of the claim has been or is made good or is otherwise compensated for without cost to the Indemnified Party.

14. Acts of the Indemnified Party

(A) No claim shall lie against the Indemnifying Party under the Mutual Indemnities to the extent that such claim is wholly or partly attributable to:

(i) any voluntary act, omission, transaction or arrangement carried out by the Indemnified Party or on its behalf or by persons deriving title from the Indemnified Party on or after Completion; or

49

(ii) any admission of liability made after the date hereof by the Indemnified Party or on its behalf or by persons deriving title from the Indemnified party on or after Completion.

(B) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claims under the Mutual Indemnities which would not have arisen but for any reorganisation or change in ownership of the Indemnified Party’s Group after Completion or any changes in the accounting basis on which any of the companies in the Indemnified Party’s Group values its assets or any other change in accounting policy or practice of any member of the Indemnified Party’s Group after Completion.

15. Allowance, provision or reserve in the accounts

No matter shall be the subject of a claim under the Mutual Indemnities by Prudential or Xxxxxxx (as the case may be) to the extent that allowance, provision or reserve in respect of such matter shall have been made in the accounts of a company within the Group of the claiming party as at the date of this Agreement or has been included in calculating creditors or deducted in calculating debtors in the accounts of a company within the Group of the claiming party and (in the case of creditors or debtors) is identified in the records of the relevant Group or shall have been otherwise taken account of or reflected in the financial information contained in the Form 10 or the Circular, as the case may be.

16. Future legislation

Save in the case of any legislation having retrospective effect to a date prior to the date of this Agreement, no liability shall arise in respect of any claim under the Mutual Indemnities if and to the extent that liability occurs or is increased wholly or partly as a result of any legislation not in force at the date of this Agreement.

53

(B) process the Personal Data only on documented instructions from a Controller, unless the Processor is legally required to process the Personal Data for another purpose by UK law to which the Processor is subject and provided it informs the Controller of that legal requirement and the proposed processing before such processing takes place (unless that law prohibits such information being disclosed on important grounds of public interest);

Xxxxxxx Group employees participating in the Prudential Group Share Incentive Plan (the “Group SIP”) will be treated as good leavers under the Group SIP rules and their Prudential Shares will be transferred to them following Demerger. Xxxxxxx Group employees will not be able to acquire any further Prudential Shares under the Group SIP following Demerger.

Xxxxxxx employees participating in the Prudential Savings-Related Share Option Scheme (the “XXXX”) will be treated as good leavers and may exercise their option(s) until the end of their original exercise period. To the extent not exercised at the end of that period, options will lapse.

Where any current or former employee of the Xxxxxxx Group is or becomes entitled to receive a cash amount on a deferred basis (whether from a member of the Prudential Group or from a member of the Xxxxxxx Group) (a “Deferred Cash Award”) which is outstanding on, or relates to service before, the Demerger, that Deferred Cash Award will continue to subsist on its original terms and will be settled by Xxxxxxx on the original payment timetable. Where an award was originally granted subject to malus and clawback provisions, it will continue to be subject to those malus and clawback provisions, except that any post-demerger exercise of those malus and clawback provisions will fall exclusively in the authority of the Compensation Committee of Xxxxxxx.

3. Exchange ratios

Where in this Schedule 5 reference is made to a current or past employee of the Xxxxxxx Group (a “Xxxxxxx Participant”) being granted an equivalent award over Xxxxxxx Shares (the “New Award”) in exchange for an existing award over Prudential Shares or ADRs (the “Old Award”):

(A) the number of Xxxxxxx Shares over which a New Award is granted in respect of any Old Award granted under the PLTIP will be calculated by reference to the average mid-market closing prices over:

(i) in relation to a Prudential ADR, the last ten dealing days when the Prudential ADR retained the right to receive the Demerger Dividend; and

(ii) in relation to a Xxxxxxx Share, the first ten dealing days following the start of regular trading of the Xxxxxxx Shares on the NYSE,

or on such other basis as is permitted by the PLTIP rules;

(B) any New Award calculated in accordance with (A) will be granted subject to the terms of the PLTIP rules, except that references in those terms to the “Company” will be to Xxxxxxx and references to “Shares” will be to Xxxxxxx Shares (meaning that, following the Demerger, references to the “Committee” and the “Share Plan Committee” will be construed as references to the Compensation Committee of Xxxxxxx);

(C) the number of Xxxxxxx Shares over which a New Award is granted in respect of any Old Award granted under the GDBP, DAIP or RSP will be calculated as the sum of:

(i) the number of Xxxxxxx Shares which the Xxxxxxx Participant would have received if the Xxxxxxx Participant had been the beneficial owner of the Prudential ADRs subject to the Xxxxxxx Participant’s Old Award at the Demerger Record Time; and

(ii) an additional number of Xxxxxxx Shares calculated by dividing (a) the total value of the Prudential ADRs subject to the Old Award (measured as the number of such ADRs multiplied by the mean of the mid-market closing values of a Prudential ADR for the first 10 dealing days following the start of regular trading of the Xxxxxxx Shares on the NYSE), divided by (b) the mean mid-market closing value of a Xxxxxxx Share for the same period or

on such other basis as is permitted by the rules of the relevant plan(s);

(D) Xxxxxxx will take appropriate steps to give legal effect to the New Awards as soon as reasonably practicable following the Demerger;

65

(E) New Awards will, so far as practicable, be granted on the same terms as, (in the case of Old Awards granted under the PLTIP) and on broadly equivalent terms to, (in the case of Old Awards granted under the GDBP, DAIP or RSP) the Old Award, including the terms relating to vesting and holding periods and the application of malus and/or clawback.

(F) Where performance conditions apply to the Old Award, the performance conditions applied to the New Award will be such as to be, in the reasonable opinion of the Compensation Committee of Xxxxxxx, no more and no less difficult to achieve than those applicable to the Old Award would have been, had the Demerger not taken place.

4. Xxxxxxx Share Scheme

Xxxxxxx Group employees will not be eligible to be granted any further share options or awards under the Prudential Incentive Plans. The Compensation Committee of Xxxxxxx may determine future eligibility for Xxxxxxx Group employees under any Xxxxxxx incentive plans including share schemes and may delegate authority to others for these purposes.    

Awards granted under the PPM America, Inc. Performance Incentive Award Plan (the “PIAP”) will not vest on the Demerger, will not be exchanged and will continue on their original terms including the terms relating to performance conditions, vesting and holding periods and the application of malus and/or clawback.

5. Conduct issues

In the event that a party to this Agreement becomes aware after the Demerger but before the fifth anniversary of the grant date of an Old Award by reference to which a New Award was granted of:

(i) a significant conduct/culture/governance issue that results in a significant capital add-on or material fine or similar sanction; or

(ii) any circumstances which the board of directors of that party reasonably believes might give rise to the malus or clawback provisions of any outstanding New Award being invoked;

which occurred before the Demerger (a “Conduct Issue”), then:

(A) that party will, within 14 days of becoming aware of the Conduct Issue, notify the other party to this Agreement of the nature of the Conduct Issue;

(B) The Remuneration Committee of Prudential and the Compensation Committee of Xxxxxxx will share such information in a timely fashion in good faith as might be required by the other to make decisions about the implications of the Conduct Issue for the relevant award(s) held by the employees of the Prudential Group and the employees of the Xxxxxxx Group respectively. Specifically, this flow of information will facilitate decisions in relation to:

(i) the assessment of conduct performance targets attached to the Old Award and the New Award made in place of the Old Award;

66

(ii) the operation of malus and clawback powers; and

(iii) any other use of discretion which either Committee deems appropriate.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, any post-demerger exercise of malus and/or clawback powers or any other use of discretion that may impact the outstanding New Awards and entitlements of employees of the Xxxxxxx Group will fall exclusively in the authority of the Compensation Committee of Xxxxxxx.

6. Dividend equivalent payment

Awards held by any current or former employees of the Xxxxxxx Group under the Prudential Incentive Plans which are released before Completion may attract a dividend equivalent payment payable after Completion. In this circumstance:

(i) the trustee (Sanne Group) will receive the dividend equivalent payment on behalf of current or former employees of the Xxxxxxx Group, in the normal way;

(ii) the trustee will remit these funds in US dollars to the Xxxxxxx Group within three days of receipt;

(iii) the trustee will provide the Xxxxxxx Group with details of the amounts payable to each current or former employee of the Xxxxxxx Group; and

(iv) the Xxxxxxx Group will transfer the funds to current or former employee of the Xxxxxxx Group within 30 days of receipt, in line with the information provided by the trustee.

7. Tax

The Prudential Group and the Xxxxxxx Group will respond in good faith and share information as might be required by the other in order to comply with specific requests or enquiries made by relevant Tax Authorities in relation to awards or compensation delivered via any Prudential Incentive Plan or Xxxxxxx Share Scheme and received by Xxxxxxx Group employees or current or former Prudential employees within the scope of U.S. income tax and/or social security regulations.

67

SCHEDULE 6

INSURANCE

1. Each party shall provide to the other party, upon reasonable request, access to all insurance policies that have:

(A) been issued to the Pre-Demerger Group, up to but excluding the date of Completion; and

(B) been issued on an occurrence or discovery basis to the benefit of Prudential and Xxxxxxx in respect of claims arising from pre-Completion events.

2. Subject to paragraph 3, Prudential and Xxxxxxx shall, from Completion, provide such reasonable assistance for the purpose of making and pursuing claims under any such policies as any member of the Other Group may reasonably request (the “Insurance Administration Services”) in respect of any occurrence, claim or circumstance that:

(A) arises in part or in whole prior to the date of Completion; and/or

(B) falls within the scope of cover of any relevant policy in place in respect of such period; and

(i) in relation to occurrence-based policies, was notified prior to the date of Completion (under any relevant policy) or was incurred, in part or in whole, prior to the date of Completion but not reported prior to the date of Completion; or

(ii) in relation to claims-made policies, was notified, or any circumstances which, in the liable party’s reasonable discretion, may lead to a claim, were notified, prior to the date of Completion or, where relevant, within any discovery period applicable to such claims-made policies,

provided whichever party is making the claim shall have responsibility for pursuing any such claim.

3. Prudential and Xxxxxxx shall only provide assistance to any Other Group company in respect of making any claim referred in paragraph 2 to the extent that such assistance from such party would not, in the reasonable opinion of such party, constitute a regulated activity for the purposes of FSMA and any related legislation or would otherwise constitute a regulated or unlawful activity under applicable law.

4. Prudential shall bear or shall procure that the relevant Prudential Group Company shall bear the excess of the amount insured in respect of any such claim of a Prudential Group Company as referred to in paragraph 2, and Xxxxxxx shall bear or shall procure that the relevant Xxxxxxx Group Company shall bear the excess of the amount insured in respect of any such claim of a Xxxxxxx Group Company as referred to in paragraph 2.

68

5. Prudential and Xxxxxxx shall from Completion cooperate and use reasonable endeavours to procure that the proceeds payable with respect to a claim covered by this Schedule 6 be paid directly to the relevant Group Company that incurred the loss or liability, unless doing so would adversely affect any Prudential Group Company or Xxxxxxx Group Company. In the event such direct payment cannot be made, (i) Prudential shall procure that the proceeds which it receives (less an amount equal to any Tax thereon (or any Tax which would have been chargeable thereon but for a Relief)) in connection with a claim covered by this Schedule 6 brought by or relating to any Xxxxxxx Group Company shall be paid promptly to the relevant Xxxxxxx Group Company that suffered the loss or liability underlying such proceeds and, pending such payment, such proceeds shall be held on trust for the relevant Xxxxxxx Group Company and (ii) Xxxxxxx shall procure that the proceeds which it receives (less an amount equal to any Tax thereon (or any Tax which would have been chargeable thereon but for a Relief)) in connection with a claim covered by this Schedule 6 brought by or relating to any Prudential Group Company shall be paid promptly to the relevant Prudential Group Company that suffered the loss or liability underlying such proceeds and, pending such payment, such proceeds shall be held on trust for the relevant Prudential Group Company.

6. Prudential and Xxxxxxx will consult each other where access to the other party’s knowledge and resource is reasonably necessary for the proper operation of the Insurance Administration Services.

7. Where a director or officer of the Prudential Group or the Xxxxxxx Group has a deed poll of indemnity, Prudential agrees that it will comply with its obligations to indemnify those persons who were directors and officers of the Xxxxxxx Group Companies immediately prior to Completion in accordance with the terms of any such deed poll of indemnity.

8. Prudential and Xxxxxxx shall procure that all claims and known incidents occurring prior to the date of Completion which could result in a claim after Completion have been or will be notified to the relevant insurers prior to the date of Completion, pursuant to the notice requirements of the applicable insurance policies, and each party shall promptly notify the other party of any claim so notified, in the case of a notification made to Xxxxxxx, to the attention of Corporate Insurance and, in the case of a notification made to Prudential, in accordance with clause 25 (Notices) of the Agreement.

9. Where an insurance policy is insufficient to pay all covered liabilities of the Xxxxxxx Group and the Prudential Group, the provisions of the relevant insurance policies control. Both Xxxxxxx and Prudential undertake not to take any act or make any omission with the intention of altering the order and amounts in which insurers make pay-outs which would unfairly prejudice the ability of the other party to receive payments under the relevant policies.

10. Without prejudice to paragraph 8 above, each party agrees that following Completion it will notify the other party of any claims made by any Group Company under policies that, prior to Completion, covered both Prudential and Xxxxxxx and their respective Group Companies. Such notifications shall be made within a reasonable time period of that party making the claim with the relevant insurer and in any event within 40 Business Days. Each party further agrees that following a claim, it shall: (i) keep the other party promptly informed of any material changes in relation to that claim; and (ii) update the other party as to the progress of any such claim(s) when requested, on at least a bi-annual basis. Responses to requests for information will be sent within 30 Business Days from the initial request. Notifications and requests for information under this paragraph 10 shall be sent, in the case of notifications sent to Xxxxxxx, to the attention of Corporate Insurance and, in the case of notifications sent to Prudential, in accordance with clause 25 (Notices) of the Agreement.
