The Executive shall be eligible to be admitted to membership of the DC Section of the Prudential Staff Pension Scheme details of which have been supplied to the Executive, subject to the trust deed and rules from time to time governing the scheme.

The Company reserves the right to amend the DC Section of the Prudential Staff Pension Scheme from time to time.

Subject to production, if requested, of medical certificates satisfactory to the Company, full remuneration will continue to be payable notwithstanding the Executive’s incapacity for work due to sickness or accident (unless and until the Appointment shall be determined under any terms hereof) for the first six months of such incapacity. During this period of incapacity, the Company shall only give notice terminating the Appointment on grounds of redundancy, falling within section 139 of The Employment Rights Act 1996 or those circumstances as set out in clause 9(2).

(6)

The Executive, her partner and her unmarried children below the age of 18 (or 24 if in full time education) will be eligible free of charge to participate with effect from the Commencement Date until termination of employment in the Prudential Group medical insurance scheme currently established with PruHealth.

7.	HOLIDAY

The Executive shall be entitled to paid time off for breaks away from work in each calendar year (in addition to statutory holidays) as the proper performance of her duties hereunder permits and in accordance with the guidelines laid down by the Company from time to time. Under normal circumstances this is not expected to exceed six weeks in any year.

8.	POST TERMINATION RESTRICTIONS

(1)	The Executive undertakes that during the Appointment and (subject to clause 8(2)) for a period of 12 months following the termination of the Appointment (the “Exclusion Period”) she shall not whether on her own account or otherwise and whether directly or indirectly:

(a)

solicit, interfere with, endeavor to entice away or induce to leave their employment any director or senior manager who is then or was at the date of termination of the Appointment an employee of or engaged by the Company or any other company within the Prudential Group and with whom the Executive had business dealings during the course of her employment in the 12 month period immediately prior to the termination of the Appointment. Nothing in this clause shall prohibit the seeking or doing of business not in direct or indirect competition with the business of the Company or any company within the Prudential Group; or

(b)

solicit, interfere with or endeavour to or actually entice away from the Company or any company within the Prudential Group business orders, or custom for products or services similar to those being provided by the Company or any company within the Prudential Group from any person, firm or corporation who was at the date of termination of the Appointment, or had been at any time within the year ending on that date, a customer or in the habit of doing business with the Company or any company in the Prudential Group and with whom the Executive was directly concerned in the twelve months before the termination of the Appointment. Nothing in this clause shall prohibit the seeking or doing of business not in direct or indirect competition with the business of the Company or any company within the Prudential Group; or

(c)

carry on, set up, be employed, engaged or interested in a business anywhere in the UK, Europe, US or Asia which is or is about to be in competition with the business of the Company or any company within the Prudential Group as at the date of termination with which the Executive was actively involved during the 12 month period immediately prior to termination of the Appointment. It is agreed that in the event that any such company ceases to be in competition with the Company and/or any company within the Prudential Group, this clause 8(1)(c) shall, with effect from that date, cease to apply in respect of such company. The provisions of this clause 8(1)(c) shall not, at any time following the termination of the Appointment, prevent the Executive from holding shares or other capital not amounting to more than 3% of the total issued share capital of any company whether listed on a recognised stock exchange or not and, in addition, shall not prohibit the seeking or doing of business not in direct or indirect competition with the business of the Company or any company within the Prudential Group.

(2)	The period during which the restrictions referred to in clause 8 shall apply following the termination of the Appointment shall be reduced by the amount of time during which, if at all, the Company suspends the Employee under the provision of clause 3(3).

(3)	The Executive acknowledges and agrees that:

(a)

each of sub-clauses 8(1)(a) (b) and (c) hereof constitute an entirely separate and independent restriction on her;

(b)

the duration extent and application of each of the restrictions are no greater than is necessary for the reasonable protection of the proper interests of the Prudential Group; and

(c)

if any such restriction is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be void or unenforceable as going beyond what is reasonable in the circumstances for the protection of the interests of the Prudential Group but would be valid if part of the wording was deleted and/or the period thereof was reduced and/or the territory concerned was reduced the restriction shall apply within the jurisdiction of that court with such modifications as may be necessary to make it valid and effective.

9.	TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

(1)

The Appointment may be terminated by either party by notice given in accordance with Clause 2. The Company may in its absolute discretion decide to terminate the employment by making a payment of Base Salary in lieu of any unexpired period of notice and, if any payment by the Company is appropriate, to make the payment either in one lump sum on termination or for payment to be made in equal monthly installments on the usual salary payment dates over the notice period. During the period of payment of these monthly installments the Executive will be expected to mitigate the position by seeking alternative employment. Should the Executive secure alternative employment which commences while the monthly installments are being paid the Executive will be required to notify the Company. Should the Executive’s new gross monthly pay be the same or more than the monthly installments the Company will cease to be liable to the Executive in respect of the remainder of the installments. Should the Executive’s new gross monthly pay be less than the monthly installments the monthly installments will continue but may be reduced to take account of the Executive’s new gross monthly pay.

(2)

Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement and without prejudice to the rights and remedies of the Company for any breach of this Agreement, and to the Executive’s continuing obligations under Clauses 8 and 11, the Company shall at any time be entitled by notice in writing to the Executive to terminate the Appointment immediately in any of the following circumstances, namely:

if she refuses or neglects to comply with any lawful orders or directions reasonably given to her by the Company or the Board and that failure to comply has material adverse consequences for the Prudential Group; or

(d)

if she fails, refuses or neglects to perform substantially the duties of the position which she holds under this Agreement or engages in willful or reckless conduct injurious to or damaging to the reputation of the Company or any other company within the Prudential Group; or

(e)

if she is prevented from carrying out her duties by reason of a personal disqualification by an industry regulator, caused by reasons attributable to the Executive; or

(f)

if she commits any serious or repeated breach of any of her obligations under this Agreement or the Appointment.

(3)

The Executive shall have no claim against the Company for damages or otherwise by reason of termination pursuant to clause 9(2). Any delay or forbearance by the Company in exercising any such right of termination shall not constitute a waiver of its rights in respect of any subsequent occurrence giving rise to such a right.

(4)

Without prejudice to the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006, if at any time during this Agreement the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of reconstruction or amalgamation of the Company and the Executive is offered employment with any concern or undertaking resulting from such reconstruction or amalgamation upon terms and conditions no less favourable than the terms of this Agreement and of similar status then the Executive shall have no claim against the Company in respect of the termination of the Appointment.

(a)

(2)

If the Executive is removed from office as a director of Prudential during the Appointment by any resolution of a general meeting or of the Board or by not being re-elected after retiring by rotation pursuant to the Articles of Association of Prudential the Executive acknowledges and agrees that such removal or cessation shall not amount to a breach of the Appointment and shall not entitle the executive to bring a claim of constructive dismissal, but such removal or cessation shall automatically constitute the Company giving notice to terminate the Appointment within the provisions of clause 2(2).

[ADDRESS]

4 June 2015

Dear Xxxx

YOUR APPOINTMENT & CONTRACT OF EMPLOYMENT

Following our recent discussions, I am delighted to formally confirm your appointment as Chief Executive Officer of Prudential Corporation Asia (“CEO, PCA”), effective from 1 June 2015. In this role, you will be a member of the Board and will report to me as Chief Executive Officer, Prudential plc.

This letter summarises the Company’s offer to you. I have also included a new contract for you to sign which is the standard contract used within Prudential plc for members of the Board.

Remuneration and benefits

Base Salary

From 1 June 2015 your base salary will be HK$8,800,000 per annum. Salaries are reviewed with effect from 1 January each year and your next review will be effective on 1 January 2016.

Incentive Plans

You will be eligible to participate in the following discretionary incentive plans:

(i)	An annual incentive plan (“AIP”). You will have a maximum AIP opportunity of 180% of annual salary. We anticipate that delivery of a normally challenging business plan will deliver 80% of the maximum opportunity for the financial element of the bonus (representing 80% of your total opportunity).

You will be required to defer 40% of any bonus awarded to you in any year into Prudential shares. These shares will vest to you three years after the date of the award. Bonus awards are not pensionable.

Your 2015 bonus payment will be calculated on a pro-rated basis in respect of your time employed as CEO, PCA and as CEO, Insurance Asia during 2015. The portion subject to deferral will also be calculated on a pro-rated basis.

Your outstanding deferred bonus awards (including matching shares you have been awarded to date) will not be affected by this change.

(ii)	An annual long term incentive award with a value at award of 250% of salary will be made under the Prudential Long Term Incentive Plan (“PLTIP”).

Following your appointment as CEO, PCA you will be made an additional PLTIP award. This will give you a pro-rated total 2015 award in line with your revised salary and participation level.

The number of shares comprising this additional award will be calculated using the average share price over the last three trading days prior to the grant date of the additional award.

Your outstanding long term incentive awards made under the PLTIP and PCA LTIP will not be affected by this change.

Pension and Risk benefits

Going forward, you will be eligible for Company pension contributions of 25% of your salary. Should you choose, all or part of this might be delivered as a contribution to the International Pension Plan (“IPP”). Any part not delivered in this way will be paid to you as a monthly cash allowance.

The IPP is a UK tax approved pension scheme. The arrangement described above is based on our current understanding of the UK tax treatment of such schemes. This is an area where the UK tax authorities position is evolving and may be subject to change in future.

In addition you will also be eligible for the following:

(i)	an annual payment to the Hong Kong Mandatory Provident Fund;

(ii)	A death in service benefit equal to 4 times your basic salary. This is subject to medical underwriting; and

(iii)

Income protection of 50% of your annual base pay should you be absent from work for more than 26 weeks due to ill health, payable for up to 5 years. This benefit is subject to medical underwriting.

From 1 June 2015 you will no longer be eligible for life assurance and critical illness cover under PRUflexiben.

Private Medical Insurance

Your existing BUPA Gold private medical cover will continue to be provided.

Holiday

You are entitled to paid time off for breaks away from work in each calendar year (in addition to public holidays) as the proper performance of your duties permits. Under normal circumstances this is not expected to exceed six weeks in any year.

All Employee Share Plans

You will no longer be eligible to participate in the PRUshareplus scheme, following your appointment to the role of CEO, PCA. Any outstanding interests in the plan will be treated in accordance with the rules of the plan.

Travel

As a member of the Board you are entitled to first class travel on Company business. If the policy changes for the Board, then any change in policy will apply to yourself.

Company Car

You will continue to be provided with a company car (currently a Mercedes-Benz S500) at Prudential’s expense to aid the proper performance of your duties.

Housing allowance

Your housing allowance will increase to HK $2,700,000 per annum with effect from 1 June 2015.

Home Leave

Your existing home leave arrangements will be enhanced, to provide for two business class trips for you and your dependant family members, from Hong Kong to the United States per annum.

Club Fees

Your membership of appropriate clubs necessary for business purposes will be continued. The Company will pay for, or reimburse you for, the membership costs for up to 3 appropriate clubs.

Education

You will continue to be eligible for support through the PCA Education subsidy policy.

Tax advice

You will be responsible for ensuring the appropriate tax is paid on your earnings and benefits. The Company will meet the reasonable costs of obtaining professional advice and preparation of returns from an organisation acceptable to the Company.

As you may be aware, the UK tax authorities have confirmed that if an individual is employed by a UK company, works in an overseas branch of a UK company and comes to the UK on work matters, a UK tax liability arises. This means that you will have a UK tax liability for the days that you spend working in the UK as an Executive Director. While this tax will be for your account, you may be able to claim relief from any double taxation you may incur. The Company will support the preparation of your UK tax returns for the 2015/ 2016 tax year and subsequent tax years. However, the UK tax authorities’ position on when and how such tax must be paid continues to evolve.

Notice period

As outlined in Clause 2 of your contract of employment, your notice of termination, to the Company and from the Company, will be 12 months.

Share ownership guidelines

In your new role, you will be subject to a share ownership guideline of 200% of salary. You are expected to meet this guideline within five years of your date of appointment to the role of CEO, PCA.

Conclusion

Xxxx, I very much hope that you will accept this offer by signing and returning a copy of this letter and the enclosed contract of employment. A further copy is enclosed for your records.

Thank you for your contribution to date to Prudential. I look forward to continuing to work with you in your new role.

Yours sincerely

Xxxx Xxxxx
