Interim Report 2007

Please find enclosed the Interim Report 2007.

2007 Interim dividend and evergreen scrip dividend

The timetable for the interim dividend is as follows:

 

1 August 2007		Announcement of 2007 interim results and interim dividend.
15 August 2007		Ordinary shares quoted ex dividend.
17 August 2007		Record date for the 2007 interim dividend.
22 August 2007		Calculation of scrip reference price which is expected to be based on the average price from 15 August 2007 to 21 August 2007 and will be displayed on the Company’s website.
3 September 2007		Final date for receipt of Irish Branch Register Scrip Dividend Mandate Form for the 2007 interim dividend.
21 September 2007		Share certificates for scrip dividend posted.
24 September 2007		Dividend payment date.
24 September 2007		First day of dealing in the new shares.

Shareholders who have elected to receive the scrip dividend will receive shares instead of cash for the 2007 interim dividend unless the election is cancelled in accordance with the terms of the Evergreen Scrip Dividend Scheme.

Shareholders who have not elected and wish to join the Evergreen Scrip Dividend Scheme should download and complete an Irish Branch Register Scrip Dividend Mandate Form (the “Mandate”) from our website. It can be accessed directly at the following address: http://www.prudential.co.uk/prudential-plc/investors/shareholder_services/forms/

A Mandate can only be made in respect of your entire holding of shares in the capital of the Company. If you have submitted a Mandate but directors decide not to offer the scrip dividend alternative in respect of any particular dividend a cash dividend will be paid to you in the usual way.

Incorporated and registered in England and Wales. Registered Office as above, Registered number 1397169.

The completed Mandate should be sent to the Company’s Irish Branch Register Registrar, Capita Registrars, Unit 5, Manor Street Business Park, Manor Street, Dublin 7 to be received by no later than 5pm on 3 September 2007. All Mandates received after this date will receive a cash dividend for the 2007 interim dividend, but will participate in all future scrip dividends. The Irish Branch Register Scrip Dividend Booklet, which explains the procedures and the terms of the Evergreen Scrip Dividend Scheme, can also be viewed and downloaded from our website. It can be accessed directly at the following address:

http://www.prudential.co.uk/prudential-plc/investors/shareholder_services/forms/

You may also obtain an Evergreen Scrip Dividend Booklet and Mandate from our registrar by calling +353 1 810 2400. Elections can be cancelled by written notice to the Company’s Irish Branch Register Registrar.

You are reminded that the price of shares can go down as well as up. For your protection, the directors may (and absent mitigating circumstances intend to) cancel your Mandate and pay a cash dividend instead, if the middle market quotation for the Company’s ordinary shares on 5 September 2007 has fallen by 15 per cent or more from the scrip reference price calculated on 22 August 2007.

Yours sincerely,

Sir David Clementi

Chairman
