IN THE MATTER OF ROYAL & SUN ALLIANCE INSURANCE PLC

and

IN THE MATTER OF KNAPTON INSURANCE LIMITED

and

IN THE MATTER OF PART VII OF THE FINANCIAL SERVICES AND MARKETS ACT 2000

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT:

ROYAL & SUN ALLIANCE INSURANCE PLC (formerly: Royal Insurance Public Limited Company from 1907 to 1997) (the Transferor); and

KNAPTON INSURANCE LIMITED (formerly: THE ENGINE, BOILER AND EMPLOYERS’ LIABILITY INSURANCE COMPANY LIMITED from 1880 to 1904, THE BRITISH ENGINE, BOILER AND ELECTRICAL INSURANCE COMPANY LIMITED from 1904 to 1978 and BRITISH ENGINE INSURANCE LIMITED from 1978 to 2010) (the Transferee),

issued an application to the High Court of England and Wales (the Application) pursuant to Part VII of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 for an order sanctioning the transfer (the Transfer) by the Transferor to the Transferee of that part of the Transferor’s insurance business that was originally written by or on behalf of Phoenix Assurance Public Limited Company (subsequently known as Phoenix Assurance Limited and then PA (GI) Limited) through the Tower Pool and subsequently transferred to the Transferor.

A copy of the report (the Report) prepared by an independent expert, Mr Derek Newton, a fellow of the Institute of Actuaries and a principal of Milliman LLP, on the effects of the Transfer on the policyholders of the Transferor and the Transferee, and a copy of a statement setting out the terms of the Transfer and a summary of the Report (the Summary), will be made available free of charge to anyone requesting such copies from the date of publication of this notice until the date on which the Transfer will be heard before the Court by contacting Norton Rose Fulbright LLP in writing at 3 More London Riverside, London SE1 2AQ, United Kingdom (Ref: RAXH/LN69443), or by contacting the Transferor via electronic mail at tower.pool@uk.rsagroup.com or via telephone at +44 (0) 1245 274 329, or at www.rsagroup.com/towerpool.

From the date the Transfer becomes effective there will be no change to the administration of the business, other than the fact that it will be carried out on behalf of the Transferee rather than the Transferor.

The Application is directed to be heard before a Judge of the Chancery Division at 7 Rolls Building, Fetter Lane, London, EC4A 1NL, United Kingdom on or about 7 October 2015. Any person who dissents to the Transfer or claims to be adversely affected by the Transfer, including any employee of the Transferor or the Transferee, may: (i) appear at the hearing in person or by Counsel; and/or (ii) make written representations to the Court prior to the hearing which will be considered at the hearing. Any person who intends to appear at the hearing, and any person who dissents from the Transfer and/or wishes to say how they will be adversely affected by the Transfer, but does not intend to appear at the hearing, is requested to give, where possible, not less than ten clear business days’ notice prior to the hearing date in writing of such intention or dissent or concern that they will be adversely affected by the Transfer, and the reasons for their intention or dissent or concern that they will be adversely affected by the Transfer, to the Solicitors named below.
