Additional information
 
The Prudential plc Remuneration Committee will consider all relevant factors when the 2020 Prudential Long Term Incentive Plan awards vest in April 2023 and may reduce vesting levels to ensure that PDMRs do not benefit from windfall gains. These factors will include the timing and extent of the recovery of the share prices of Prudential, its peer group and the indices on which it is listed, the performance of the Company over the period 2020 - 2022 and any other considerations that the Committee deems relevant. 
 
In the case of shares being granted under the Prudential Long Term Incentive Plan these awards are subject to a further 2 year holding period which cannot be charged, pledged, transferred or otherwise encumbered following release.
 
Prudential plc is not affiliated in any manner with Prudential Financial, Inc., a company whose principal place of business is in the United States of America nor with the Prudential Assurance Company, a subsidiary of M&G plc, a company incorporated in the United Kingdom.
