Dividend declaration

Ordinary shares of 32 (17)/(19) pence ('Ordinary Shares')

Aviva announces a final dividend of 23.8 pence per share on Ordinary Shares.
Subject to shareholder approval at the 2025 Annual General Meeting and the
condition below, the final dividend for the year ending 31 December 2024 will
be paid on 22 May 2025 to shareholders on the Register of Members at the close
of business on 11 April 2025. Holders of Aviva American Depository Receipts
will be paid the dividend approximately four business days after the payment
to Ordinary shareholders. The last election date for the Dividend Reinvestment
Plan is 30 April 2025. The dividend is conditional upon the Directors not
having determined (at their discretion) to cancel the dividend at any point
prior to its payment.

In compliance with the rules issued by the Prudential Regulation Authority and
other regulatory requirements to which the Group is subject, the dividend is
required to remain cancellable at any point prior to it becoming due and
payable. The dividend is therefore conditional upon the Directors not having
determined (at their discretion) to cancel the dividend at any point prior its
payment. The Directors have no intention of exercising this cancellation
right, other than where they determine it may be necessary or appropriate to
do so as a result of legal or regulatory requirements (including without
limitation if, prior to payment, the Group ceases to hold capital resources
equal to or in excess of its Solvency Capital Requirement, or if that would be
the case if the dividend were paid).

8 (3)/(8) % Cumulative Irredeemable Preference Shares of £1 ('Preference
Shares')

The Company announces a dividend of 4.1875 pence per share for the six-month
period ending 31 March 2024 on the Preference Shares. The dividend will be
paid on 31 March 2025 to shareholders on the Register of Members at the close
of business on 7 March 2025.
