This presentation may include oral and written “forward-looking statements” with respect to certain of
Aviva’s plans and its current goals and expectations relating to its future financial condition, performance
and results. These forward-looking statements sometimes use words such as ‘anticipate’, ‘target’, ‘expect’,
‘estimate’, ‘intend’, ‘plan’, ‘goal’, ‘believe’ or other words of similar meaning. By their nature, all forward-
looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances
which may be beyond Aviva’s control, including, among other things, UK domestic and global economic
and business conditions, market-related risks such as fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates, the
policies and actions of regulatory authorities, the impact of competition, the possible effects of inflation or
deflation, the timing impact and other uncertainties relating to acquisitions by the Aviva Group and relating
to other future acquisitions or combinations within relevant industries, the impact of tax and other
legislation and regulations in the jurisdictions in which Aviva and its affiliates operate, as well as the other
risks and uncertainties set forth in our 2007 Annual Report to Shareholders. As a result, Aviva’s actual
future financial condition, performance and results may differ materially from the plans, goals and
expectations set forth in Aviva’s forward-looking statements, and persons receiving this presentation
should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Aviva undertakes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements made in this presentation or any
other forward-looking statements we may make. Forward-looking statements made in this presentation are

What we believe

• Local independent advice is key for commercial customers


• Support the independent broker and win the crowd
• ‘No’ to commercial direct
• Brokers will continue to dominate – with sustainable distribution ratios
• Consolidations have peaked – 85% of brokers expect to stay
independent
• Historically our actions have fuelled consolidation – actions today are
reversing this trend
• ‘No’ to buying brokers
