Prudential plc
NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2020
Prudential plc today announces that its Notice of Meeting for the
2020 Annual General Meeting, to be held on Thursday 14 May 2020 at
11.00am, is available to view on the Group's website
at www.prudentialplc.com.
A copy of the Notice of Meeting and proxy card will be available
for inspection at www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM in
due course. Printed copies of the Notice of Meeting will today be
posted to those shareholders who have requested to receive a hard
copy.
Coronavirus (Covid-19)
At the time the Notice of Meeting went to print, the Meeting was
scheduled to be held at the QEII Centre, Broad Sanctuary,
Westminster, London SW1P 3EE. However, the Board notes the guidance
issued by the UK Government on 23 March 2020, restricting social
gatherings for a period of three weeks from that date in view of
the Covid-19 pandemic, and the fact that if such guidance remains
in place on the date of the Meeting, shareholders will be
prohibited from attending the Meeting.
Given the UK Government's current guidance and the uncertainty
around what measures will be in place at the time of the Meeting,
the Board requests that shareholders do not attend but instead,
encourages them to submit their proxies as early as possible to
enable their vote to be counted. We are closely monitoring the
evolving situation, and will confirm final arrangements in due
course. Shareholders should visit https://www.prudentialplc.com/investors/shareholder-information/agm/2020 for
the latest updates.

Prudential plc is not affiliated in any manner with Prudential
Financial, Inc., a company whose principal place of business is in
