5. Advances in respect of proceedings

Where any Beneficiary Family Member properly and reasonably suffers or incurs losses, costs, liabilities, charges or expenses (including without limitation advisory fees) in investigating, responding to, preparing for or disputing any Claim, the Beneficiary shall be entitled to claim indemnity under paragraph 1 (for himself and/or on behalf of any Beneficiary Family Member) forthwith after the same becomes due and payable by the Beneficiary Family Member, provided that if such Claim:

(a) relates to a criminal offence in relation to which the Beneficiary is convicted;

(b) relates to civil proceedings brought by any member of the Group in which judgment is given against the Beneficiary;

(c) relate to any matters in respect of which any relevant court, tribunal or other legal or regulatory authority determines that any act or omission by the Beneficiary constitutes fraud, dishonesty, bad faith or wilful default on the part of the Beneficiary; or

(d) relates to any application under the Application for Relief Sections in which the Court refuses to grant the Beneficiary relief,

Prudential shall be entitled to refuse to provide indemnification (or, as the case may be, any further indemnification) pursuant to the indemnity contained in paragraph 1 and where Prudential has already paid amounts to the Beneficiary pursuant to the indemnity contained in paragraph 1, such amounts shall be reimbursed to Prudential by the Beneficiary not later than (i) in the event of the Beneficiary being convicted, the date on which such conviction has become final, (ii) in the event of judgment being given against the Beneficiary, the date on which such judgment has become final, (iii) in the event of any relevant court, tribunal or other legal or regulatory authority determining that any act or omission by the Beneficiary constitutes fraud, dishonesty, bad faith or wilful default on the part of the Beneficiary, the date of such determination or (iv) in the event of the court refusing to grant the Beneficiary relief on the application, the date on which such refusal for relief has become final.

6. Termination and survival

The provisions of this Deed shall survive:

(a) the Beneficiary moving to another role within the Group which does not have the benefit of an indemnity equivalent to the indemnity contained in paragraph 1; and

(b) the termination of any or all appointments of the Beneficiary within the Group, excluding (i) termination by the Beneficiary in fundamental breach of the terms of his appointment with any member of the Group; or (ii) termination by Prudential by reason of the Beneficiary’s fraud or wilful and serious neglect of his duties. In the event of a dispute relating to this paragraph 6(b), Prudential shall provide indemnification (or, as the case may be, further indemnification) pursuant to the indemnity contained in paragraph 1 until a competent court, tribunal or other legal or regulatory authority, from which there is no right of appeal, determines that any act or omission by the Beneficiary constitutes a fundamental breach of the terms of his appointment with any member of the Group, fraud or wilful and serious neglect by the Beneficiary of his duties.

7. Notification of Prudential

The Beneficiary shall notify Prudential in writing promptly upon becoming aware of any matter for which indemnity may be sought under paragraph 1, providing to Prudential all such information as the Beneficiary has of the circumstances of the relevant matter, and shall thereafter provide Prudential with all such information as Prudential may reasonably require about developments in relation to such matter. The Beneficiary acknowledges that Prudential may provide such information to its insurers and advisers and to, any other member of the Group and agrees to respond promptly to all reasonable requests from Prudential in relation to any matter relating to the indemnity contained in paragraph 1.

8. Conduct of Claims

(a) The Beneficiary shall, subject to paragraph 8(b), have conduct of the defence and settlement of any Claim, but Prudential shall have the right (but not the obligation) to associate itself with such Claim provided the Beneficiary consents to this. Prudential shall not be required or, without the consent of the Beneficiary (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), permitted to assume the conduct of the Claim made against the Beneficiary.

(b) The Beneficiary shall conduct all Claims diligently and competently using the legal and other representatives mutually acceptable to the Beneficiary and Prudential. The Beneficiary shall keep Prudential reasonably informed of the progress of any Claim and recognises the right of Prudential to provide at its discretion input into the conduct of any Claim. The Beneficiary shall not settle or compromise any Claim without Prudential’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

9. Recovery against other persons

If Prudential pays any amount in respect of any Losses and any Beneficiary Family Member is, or subsequently becomes, entitled to recover from any other person any amount in respect of such Losses (including without limitation by way of tax credit, allowance, repayment or relief), then, subject to there being no reasonable prospect of any Beneficiary Family Member being prejudiced and to Prudential agreeing to indemnify the Beneficiary Family Members against all reasonable costs and expenses which might be incurred, Prudential may either:

(a) request that the Beneficiary take (or procure that any Dependant take) all reasonable steps to enforce such recovery. If Prudential so elects then the Beneficiary must so act and must procure that all and any amounts recovered, less all reasonable costs, charges and expenses incurred and not recovered by any Beneficiary Family Member in making such recovery, will be applied in promptly repaying to Prudential the amount paid by Prudential in respect of the Losses; or

(b) exercise its right to be subrogated to the extent of such payment to any or all the Beneficiary Family Members’ rights of recovery against third parties in respect of the payment. If Prudential so elects then the Beneficiary shall (or. shall procure that the Dependants shall), promptly on request from Prudential, execute all papers reasonably required and shall do everything necessary to enable Prudential to bring, maintain and conclude an action effectively, either in the name of all or any Beneficiary Family Members or in its own name, at Prudential’s discretion.

10. Recovery under other indemnities and insurance

(a) Subject to paragraph 10(c), the Beneficiary agrees to take, and to procure that the Dependants take, all reasonable steps to claim and recover under any other indemnity or insurance policy before he makes a claim under the indemnity contained in paragraph 1. The indemnity contained in paragraph 1 operates only in excess of any right to indemnity or insurance which any Beneficiary Family Member may have (irrespective of any wording to the contrary in any indemnity or insurance policy concerned), and no person other than the Beneficiary shall have the right to pursue any claim against Prudential under the indemnity contained in paragraph 1 (or to seek contribution from Prudential) whether in his own name or that of any Beneficiary Family Member.

(b) Provided that the Beneficiary complies with paragraph 10(a), Prudential will advance to the Beneficiary the funds necessary to make a payment in respect of any Losses pending receipt by the Beneficiary Family Member of the amounts due under any other indemnity and/or insurance policy in excess of which the indemnity contained in paragraph 1 operates. Any such advance will not operate to extinguish, erode or otherwise limit in any way whatsoever the Beneficiary Family Members’ entitlement under the other indemnity and/or insurance policy and the Beneficiary shall remit (or shall procure that there shall be remitted) to Prudential all and any payments and/or benefits received pursuant thereto subsequent to the date of the advance required to repay the advance.

(c) The obligation to take all reasonable steps to claim and recover under any other indemnity or insurance policy set out in paragraph 10(a) shall not operate in respect of any policy of executives’ and officers’ liability insurance for which any member of the Group is the named policyholder and which requires that any Beneficiary Family Member be indemnified by a member of the Group prior to any claim being brought under that policy.

11. Deductions required to be made by Prudential or a Beneficiary Family Member

(a) All amounts payable by Prudential to, or on behalf of, any Beneficiary Family Member under this Deed of indemnity will be paid without any deductions unless they are required by law. If any deductions are required by law, Prudential will pay to, or on behalf of, the Beneficiary Family Member an amount which will, after any deduction has been made, result in the Beneficiary Family Member receiving the same amount as the Beneficiary Family Member would have been entitled to receive in the absence of any requirement to make a deduction.

(b) If any amount payable by Prudential under this Deed of indemnity is subject to tax in the hands of the Beneficiary Family Member in any jurisdiction, the amount payable will be increased so that the net amount received by the Beneficiary after taking that tax into account is equal to the full amount which would have been received by the Beneficiary Family Member if that tax had not been payable.

(c) To the extent that any Beneficiary Family Member obtains any tax credit, allowance, repayment or relief as a result of Prudential paying any increased amount under this paragraph 11, the Beneficiary shall repay, or procure that the Dependant repays, to

Prudential the amount necessary to reflect the principle that, after tax, the Beneficiary Family Member is to be put in the same position as if the deduction or charge to tax had not been required or incurred in the first place.

12. No double recovery

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Deed, the Beneficiary shall have the benefit of any indemnity, insurance, agreement, undertaking or commitment entered into with, or on his behalf by, any member of the Group whether before (subject to paragraph 17 below) or after the date of this Deed, provided that he shall not be entitled to recover more than once under this indemnity and any other indemnity, insurance, agreement, undertaking or commitment in respect of any Losses.
