Code of Ethics and Personal Trading Policy and Procedures

I. Code of Ethics Policy

Overview

Rule 204A-1 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 as amended requires investment advisers to adopt a written code of ethics designed to prevent fraud by reinforcing the principles that govern the conduct of investment advisory firms and their personnel. In addition, the Code of Ethics must set forth specific requirements relating to personal securities trading activity including reporting transactions and holdings.

Jennison's Code of Ethics and Personal Trading Policy (the "Code") applies to all employees. Jennison (or the "Company") expects that all employees will adhere to this Code without exception.

Standards of Professional Conduct

It is Jennison's policy that its employees adhere to the highest ethical standards when discharging their investment advisory duties to our clients or in conducting general business activity on behalf of the Company. Actions, which expose any of us or the organization to even the appearance of an impropriety, must not occur. As a fiduciary1, Jennison owes its clients a duty of honesty, good faith, and fair dealing when discharging our investment management responsibilities. It is a fundamental principle of the Company to ensure that the interests of our clients come before those of Jennison or any of its employees. Therefore, as an employee of Jennison, we expect you to uphold these standards of professional conduct by not taking inappropriate advantage of your position, such as using information obtained as a Jennison employee to benefit yourself or anyone else in any way. It is particularly important to adhere to these standards when engaging in personal securities transactions and maintaining the confidentiality of information concerning the identity of security holdings and the financial circumstances of our clients. Any investment advice provided must be unbiased, independent and confidential. It is extremely important to not violate the trust that Jennison and its clients have placed in its employees.

The prescribed guidelines and principles, as set forth in the policies that follow, are designed to reasonably assure that these high ethical standards long maintained by Jennison continue to be applied and to protect Jennison's clients by deterring misconduct by its employees. It is each employee's responsibility to ensure that we:

Nurture a company culture that is highly moral and make decisions based on what is right

Build lasting customer relationships by offering only those products and services that are appropriate to customers' needs and provide fair value

Maintain an environment where employees conduct themselves with courage, integrity, honesty and fair dealing at all times

Ensure no individual's personal success or business group's bottom line is more important than preserving the name and goodwill of Jennison

Regularly monitor and work to improve our ethical work environment

Jennison employees should use the Code, as well as the related policies and procedures, as an educational guide that is complemented by Jennison's training protocol.

1Investments Advisers frequently are fiduciaries for clients. Fiduciary status may exist under contract; common law; state law; or federal laws, such as the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, the Investment Company Act of 1940 and ERISA.

Code of Ethics and Personal Trading Policy and Procedures

Each Jennison employee has the responsibility to be fully aware of and strictly adhere to the Code of Ethics and the accompanying policies that support the Code. It should be noted that because ethics is not a science, there may be gray areas that are not covered by laws or regulations. Jennison and its employees will nevertheless be held accountable to such standards. Individuals are expected to seek assistance for help in making the right decision.

Reporting Concerns & Non-Retaliation Policy

Jennison Associates is committed to high standards of ethical, moral and legal business conduct. In line with this commitment, and Jennison's commitment to open communication, Jennison's Reporting Concerns & Non-Retaliation Policy ("Policy") found in the Employee Handbook describes the process for individuals to submit concerns regarding the quality and integrity of the firm's accounting, auditing, and financial reporting controls and procedures as well as the firm's legal or regulatory compliance ("Concerns").

This Reporting Concerns & Non-Retaliation Policy is intended to cover for you if you raise concerns regarding:

incorrect financial reporting

unlawful activity including violations to securities laws;

activities that are not in line with a Jennison policy, including but not limited to the Code of Ethics, and/or

activities, which otherwise amount to serious improper conduct.

The Concerns reporting procedure is intended to be used for the reporting of unethical or illegal behavior or practices, violations of laws, regulations or any internal policies. Such Concerns, including those relating to financial reporting unethical conduct may be reported directly to: the Chief Ethics Officer, the Chief Legal Officer, the Chief Compliance Officer, or the Chief Risk Officer. You may also communicate a financial reporting or ethical Concern by sending an email either through the Jennison Financial Reporting Concern Mailbox located on the Risk Management webpage or the Jennison Ethics Mailbox located on the Ethics webpage. Emails sent in this manner have the option to be strictly anonymous.

Employment-related concerns should continue to be reported through your normal channels, by speaking directly with your manager, any other manager, or Human Resources.

II.Personal Trading Policy

Jennison ("Firm" or "Company") and its Employees owe a fiduciary duty to our Clients to conduct our affairs in a manner that:

avoids placing our own personal interests ahead of the interests of our Clients

avoids taking inappropriate advantage of our position with the Company

avoids any actual or potential conflicts of interest.

As such, Jennison has adopted this Personal Trading Policy ("Policy") to ensure that Employees conduct their personal trading in a manner consistent with our fiduciary duty. This Policy is also designed to comply with various securities laws and regulations, including the Insider Trading and Securities Fraud Enforcement Act of 1988, the Conduct Rules of FINRA, Rule 204A-1 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and Rule 17(j) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as applicable.

Capitalized terms used throughout this Policy are defined in the Glossary in Exhibit A

A Matrix of Jennison's pre-approval and reporting requirements is listed in Exhibit B

If you are unclear as to your personal trading and reporting responsibilities, or have any questions concerning any aspect of this Policy, please contact the Personal Trading Compliance Team (PersonalTrading@jennison.com).

III.Personal Trading Procedures

The following rules, regulations and restrictions apply to the personal security transactions of all

Employees.

Section 1: Employee Monitoring Classifications

Some of the more frequent Employee monitoring classifications are listed below. Please see the Glossary in Exhibit A for a full list of classifications. For ease of reference, the term Employee will be used throughout this Policy and multiple classifications may apply depending on the Employee's role.

Access Persons - Employees who work in support of our investment advisory activities and who may in the course of their responsibilities have access to nonpublic investment advisory client trading information or recommendations, or have access to nonpublic portfolio holdings. All Jennison Employees are classified as Access Persons. While contingent workers (e.g. consultants and temporary workers) are not Jennison Employees, those contingent workers who have access to sensitive or confidential information may be deemed Access Persons and subject to preclearance of personal securities trading activities and other Policy requirements as determined by the Personal Trading Compliance Team.

Designated Person - An Employee who, during the normal course of his or her job, has routine access to material nonpublic information about Prudential. Material nonpublic information may consist of financial or non-financial information about Prudential as a whole or one or more Divisions or Segments. Please see Section 5 for additional rules and information.

Code of Ethics and Personal Trading Policy and Procedures

Dual Hat Employee - Employee who works in or supports the investment advisory activities of another PGIM asset management business or another entity under Prudential's control. Please see Section 6 for additional rules and information.

Immediate Family – any of the following relatives who share the same household with you and are financially connected to you: child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships. The term also includes any related or unrelated individual who resides with, or whose investments are controlled by, or whose financial support is materially contributed to by, the Employee, such as a significant other or domestic partner. For example, this could include individuals with whom you share living expenses, bank accounts, rent or mortgage payments, ownership of a home, or any other material financial support. These situations should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the Personal Trading Compliance Team.

Investment Persons – Access Persons who, in connection with their regular functions or duties, make or participate in making recommendations regarding the purchase or sale of securities for client accounts (i.e., portfolio managers and research analysts).

Section 2: Securities Account Maintenance

Securities Accounts and Authorized Broker-Dealers

Access Persons and Investment Persons are required to maintain their Securities Accounts at an Authorized Broker-Dealer. Please review Exhibit A for the definition of Securities Accounts and for the list of Authorized Broker-Dealers.

All Securities Accounts must be reported in our third party vendor system, PTA, or by contacting the Personal Trading Compliance Team. Employees who are newly subject to this requirement are required to transfer their Securities Accounts to an Authorized Broker-Dealer within sixty days of their Company start date. In addition, in the event that you open a new Securities Account, you should report it in PTA within thirty days of activating the new account.

Exceptions to the Authorized Broker-Dealer requirement will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and will be approved on a limited basis. Exceptions must be submitted to the Personal Trading Compliance Team and require the approval of both the Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Executive Officer. If, at any time, the facts and circumstances have changed regarding an account(s) for which an exception has been previously granted, the Employee must promptly notify the Personal Trading Compliance Team and request that the account(s) be reviewed in light of the changed circumstances. Additionally, Employees must submit documentation to the Personal Trading Compliance Team upon request to re-validate exceptions that were previously granted.

Even if you are granted an exception to the Authorized Broker-Dealer requirement and are permitted to maintain an account with a broker-dealer who is not authorized, you must direct the brokerage firm(s) that maintain(s) your securities account(s) to send duplicate copies of your trade confirmations and account statements ("trading activity") to Jennison's Personal Trading Compliance Team.

Certain brokers may require written consent forms with physical signatures from all account owners, including Immediate Family Members, prior to transmitting personal trading data to Jennison and Prudential Financial, Inc. for new and existing accounts.

Jennison recognizes that some of its Employees may, due to their living arrangements, be uncertain as to their obligations under this Policy. If an Employee has any question or doubt as to whether a Securities Account is subject to this Policy, he or she must consult with the Personal Trading Compliance Team.

Mutual Fund Only Accounts and 529 Accounts

Access Persons and Investment Persons must report all Securities Accounts held at a broker-dealer even if the account is limited to the purchase and sale of open-end mutual funds.

Some mutual fund companies allow mutual fund shares to be purchased and held directly through the fund's transfer agent rather than through a broker-dealer. Such mutual fund transfer agency accounts, including the underlying transactions and holdings in those accounts, do not need to be reported to Jennison, unless such accounts hold Affiliated Open-End Mutual Funds.

529 College Savings Plans purchased directly from a state sponsor rather than through a broker-dealer are not subject to this Policy and do not require disclosure.

Discretionary Managed Accounts

Access Persons and Investment Persons must disclose Discretionary Managed Accounts to the Personal Trading Compliance Team and must provide a copy of the executed Discretionary Managed Account Agreement for review and approval. Upon approval, duplicate statements and trade confirmations for these accounts are not required to be submitted. However, any Employee may be asked to provide the Personal Trading Compliance Team with periodic statements for certain Discretionary Managed Accounts.

A Discretionary Managed Account Agreement may establish general investment objectives. However, the account owner may not make or be permitted to make any specific decisions regarding the purchase or sale of individual securities for the account. If the account owner has granted management of their Discretionary Managed Account to a third party, then the account owner must not influence or control the account, such as by suggesting purchases or sales of investments, directing transactions, or consulting with the manager regarding allocation of investments in any way that could affect the selection of specific securities.

Employees who reported and have received approval to maintain a Discretionary Managed Account are required to complete a periodic certification to the effect that they have not influenced the purchase and sale of investments as noted in the paragraph above. The financial professional responsible for the Discretionary Managed Account may be required to submit a separate certification to the Personal Trading Compliance Team regarding the account. Additionally, either the Employee or the financial professional may be asked periodically to discuss the nature of the account with the Personal Trading Compliance Team.

For the purposes of this Policy, automated adviser accounts (colloquially referred to as robo-advisers) that utilize algorithms to manage client assets may be subject to the same provisions of this Policy as Discretionary Managed Accounts provided the robo-adviser's managed account agreement is accepted by the Personal Trading Compliance Team.

Cryptocurrency

Cryptocurrency accounts or "wallets" as they are commonly known do not need to be reported and the purchase or sale of actual cryptocurrency does not require preclearance or reporting. However, because certain cryptocurrency offerings such as initial coin offerings and cryptocurrency-based ETFs and futures contracts may be considered securities offerings, while they do not require preclearance they are required to be reported.

Please contact the Personal Trading Compliance Team to determine whether any such offering requires preclearance or reporting.

Section 3: Preclearance Requirements

Preclearance Requirements – General

Preclearance of personal securities transactions allows Jennison to prevent personal trades that may conflict with Client trades or transactions. As such, Access Persons and Investment Persons (subject to the exceptions noted below) must preclear all transactions in Covered Securities as defined in Exhibit A. Preclearance is not required for transactions that are Non-Volitional as defined in Exhibit A.

Determination as to whether or not a particular transaction requires pre-approval should be made by consulting the Compliance and Reporting of Personal Transactions Matrix found on Exhibit B.

Trading approval is valid only for the day that it is granted.

Preclearance is not required for Affiliated Open-End Mutual Funds. However, please note that a Sixty Day Mutual Fund Holding Period requirement applies as detailed further down in this Policy.

Preclearance Requirements – Margin Accounts and Limit Orders

Access Persons and Investment Persons are discouraged from entering limit orders that carry over to a future trading day and from maintaining margin accounts. If you engage in multi-day limit orders, you must obtain preclearance approval on each day that the order is outstanding. Transactions triggered by limit orders, margin calls, or margin account maintenance fees require preclearance approval and may result in violations of the Policy.

Preclearance Requirements – Voluntary Corporate Actions

Access Person and Investment Persons are required pre-clear voluntary corporate actions. If Investment Persons hold or cover the issuer of the corporate action then they need to contact the Personal Trading Compliance Team for review.

Preclearance Requirements – Gifts of Covered Securities

Preclearance is required if Access Person or Investment Person gifts a Covered Security to a person. Preclearance is not required if Access Person or Investment Person donates a Covered Security to charity/non-profit organization that the Employee does not own or control.

Submitting a Preclearance Request

Preclearance requests must be submitted via PTA, which can be accessed by clicking on Personal Trading Quick Link on JennOnline. Automated feedback will be provided as to whether the request is approved, denied, or in need of further review. Preclearance requests may be submitted between 10:15 AM and 4:00 PM Eastern Standard Time. Submitting a preclearance request outside of these times will result in a system-generated denial. Approved trades must be executed by the close of the business on the day in which the preclearance approval is granted. Approved orders for securities traded in foreign markets may be executed within two business days from the date preclearance is granted. Failure to obtain preclearance approval on the exact day of trading will result in a violation.

For private securities transactions, approval request forms can be found in PTA in the Forms section. Completed private securities transactions must be reported to the Personal Trading Compliance Team within thirty days of making the investment.

Section 4: General Trading and Other Restrictions

Material Nonpublic Information (MNPI):

No Access Persons or an Investment Person may buy or sell any security while in possession of material, nonpublic information. Please refer to Jennison's Safeguarding the Receipt of MNPI Policy and Procedures for additional information.

Blackout Period

Jennison's Blackout Period Rules apply to all Access Persons and Investment Persons and is defined as the period of seven calendar days before or after a transaction was executed in a Client account in the same or an equivalent security. The Blackout Period also includes pending buy or sell orders in the same or equivalent security, otherwise known as an Open Order.

Subject to the exceptions noted below Access Persons and Investment Persons are prohibited from knowingly:

executing a securities transaction on the same day that a Client has a pending buy or sell order in the same or an equivalent security;

buying or selling a security within seven calendar days before or after a Client trades in the same or an equivalent security;

executing a securities transaction if such trade will interfere in any way with the orderly trade execution of such security by any Client; and

executing a securities transaction after such security has been recommended to any Client or after being traded for any Clients, if the trade is effected with a view to making a profit on the anticipated market action of the security resulting from such recommendation, purchase or sale.

If an Access Person or an Investment Person trades during a Blackout Period, reversal of the trade and disgorgement may be required. For example, if an Access Person's trade is pre-approved and executed and subsequently, within seven days of the transaction, the Company trades on behalf of Clients, the Personal Trading Compliance Team will review the personal trade in light of firm trading activity and make a recommendation as to whether additional action should be taken.

In those circumstances where an Investment Person personally trades within seven days of firm trading, the Chief Compliance Officer, Chief Legal Officer and Senior Management will determine on a case-by- case basis the appropriate action. Regardless of the actual impact to Clients, the perceived conflict of interest and appearance may determine that the Investment Person be required to reverse the trade and disgorge to the firm any difference due to an incremental price advantage over the Client's transaction.

Designated Persons are prohibited from executing trades in Prudential related securities unless the trading window is open. Certain sales of Prudential securities and exercises of Prudential Employee stock options are permitted during Blackout Periods only if made pursuant to the Company precleared Individual Trading Plan, otherwise known as a 10b5-1 plan, that is maintained by Prudential's Securities Monitoring Unit (SMU).

Exceptions to the Blackout Period

Exceptions to the Blackout Period provision may be granted for De Minimis Transactions, which are:

Any trades, or series of trades effected over a 30 calendar day period, involving $50,000 or less in a security with a market capitalization greater than $2 billion and less than $25 billion; and

Code of Ethics and Personal Trading Policy and Procedures

Any trades, or series of trades effected over a 30 calendar day period, involving $100,000 or less in a security with a market capitalization greater than $25 billion.

Please note that there is no De Minimis exception for securities with market capitalization of under $2 billion or Fixed Income securities.

Trades meeting the De Minimis exception are subject to preclearance requirement as well as additional rules and satisfactory responses to preclearance questions.

Blackout Period restriction does not apply to the securities listed in the broad based indices list maintained by the Personal Trading Compliance Team and available on PTA for your reference.

Investment Persons

Investment Persons who are Portfolio Managers are prohibited from selling securities in their personal account(s) while that security is held in a Client account where they are named as a Portfolio Manager.

Investment Persons who are Portfolio Managers are prohibited from buying securities in their personal account(s) while that security is held short in a Client account where they are named as a Portfolio Manager.

Investment Persons who are Research Analysts are prohibited from selling in their personal account(s) any security in their research coverage while that same security is held in any fundamental Client account.

The restrictions outlined in this Investment Persons section supersede the De Minimis Transaction exception outlined above.

Sixty Day Mutual Fund Holding Period

Access Persons and Investment Persons are required to hold Affiliated Open-End Mutual Funds purchased for a period of sixty calendar days, using the Last In, First Out (LIFO) accounting methodology. Profits realized on such transactions that do not adhere to the requirements of this Section may be required to be disgorged to the Company or as otherwise deemed appropriate by the Personal Trading Compliance Team and the Chief Compliance Officer.

A list of Affiliated Open-End Mutual Funds subject to the Sixty Day Mutual Fund Holding Period restrictions can be found in PTA.

Sixty Day Covered Security Holding Period

Access Persons and Investment Persons are prohibited from executing a purchase and sale, or sale and purchase, of the same or an equivalent Covered Security within any sixty calendar day period, using the LIFO accounting methodology.

This prohibition shall not apply to trading in those securities listed on the broad based indices list maintained by the Personal Trading Compliance Team and available on PTA for your reference.

Short Sales

Access Persons and Investment Persons may not short Prudential related securities under any circumstances. Additionally, Access Persons and Investment Persons are prohibited from taking a short position in a security that is held in a fundamental Client account.

Code of Ethics and Personal Trading Policy and Procedures

 

11

 

 

 

Excessive Trading

Access Persons and Investment Persons are discouraged from engaging in a pattern of securities transactions that is so excessively frequent as to potentially impact their ability to carry out their assigned responsibilities.

Personal trading activity of Access Persons and Investment Persons who execute more than 25 trades in Covered Securities that require preclearance over a 30 calendar day period will be reported to senior management.

Security Ownership

Access Persons and Investment Persons are generally prohibited from holding more than 0.05% of shares outstanding of any individual Covered Security across all Securities Accounts. Investments in private companies will be evaluated on a case by case basis.

Prudential Securities

All Access Persons and Investment Persons are prohibited from trading Prudential securities while in possession of material, nonpublic information regarding the Company. For purposes of this Policy, all requirements and restrictions relating to Prudential securities include, but are not limited to, common stock (PRU), bonds (including convertible bonds), the Prudential Financial, Inc. Common Stock Fund ("PFI Common Stock Fund"), Employee stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, exchange traded or other options and Prudential Financial single stock futures.

All Access Persons and Investment Persons are also prohibited from selling Prudential securities short including "short sales against the box", hedging Prudential securities transactions, and from participating in any exchange traded Prudential options or futures transactions on any security issued by Prudential. These restrictions include: put or call options; prepaid variable forward contracts; equity swaps; collars; exchange traded funds; and any other financial instrument that is designed to hedge or offset any change in the market value of Prudential securities.

With the exception of Designated Persons, Access Persons and Investment Persons, are not required to pre-clear the purchase or sale of Prudential common stock (PRU) or the exercise of Prudential options. Additionally Access Persons and Investment Persons are not subject to the Sixty Day Covered Security Holding Period.

Employer-issued Stock Option Transactions

The exercise of employee stock options granted by a third party as compensation do not require preclearance provided the converted shares are not liquidated. All Employees must preclear the sale of shares resulting from the exercise of an employer-issued stock option.

Direct Stock Purchase Plans

Subject to preclearance, long-term investing through direct stock purchase plans is permitted. The terms of the plan, the initial investment, and any notice of intent to purchase through automatic debit must be provided to and approved by the Personal Trading Compliance Team. Any changes to the original terms of the approval as well as any sales or discretionary purchase of securities in the plan must be submitted for preclearance. Termination of participation in such a plan must be reported to the Personal Trading Compliance Team. Provided that the automatic monthly purchases have been approved by the Personal

Code of Ethics and Personal Trading Policy and Procedures

 

12

 

 

 

Trading Compliance Team, each automatic monthly purchase need not be submitted for pre-approval. For purposes of applying the Sixty-Day Covered Security Holding Period only discretionary (volitional transactions) will be matched. Additionally, holdings need to be disclosed annually.

Options and Futures

Access Persons and Investment Persons are prohibited from transacting in options and futures where the underlying security is a Covered Security that requires preclearance.

Initial Public Offerings

Access Persons and Investment Persons are prohibited from purchasing initial public offerings of securities. For purposes of this Policy, "initial public offerings of securities" do not include offerings of government or municipal securities.

Private Investments

Access Persons and Investment Persons are prohibited from investing in a Private Investment without prior approval from the Personal Trading Compliance Team, the employee's supervisor or the Head of the Strategy or Chief Investment Officer or his designee. Such review and approval will take into account, among other factors, whether the investment opportunity should be reserved for Clients and whether the opportunity is being offered to the Employee by virtue of his or her position at Jennison. Approval of the Private Investment should also consider whether the investment is likely to result in a current or future conflict with Clients, including a future public offering.

To preclear a Private Investment, please use the Private Investment Form which can be found in the "Forms" section in PTA.

Restricted Lists

Access Persons and Investment Persons are prohibited from purchasing or selling securities of issuers on Jennison's Restricted List.

Investment Clubs

Access Persons and Investment Persons may not participate in Investment Clubs.

Section 5: Additional Requirements for Designated Persons

A Designated Person is an Employee who, during the normal course of his or her job has routine access to material, nonpublic information about Prudential, including information about one or more business units or corporate level information that may be material to Prudential. Employees who have been classified as a Designated Person have been informed of their status. If you have been classified as a Designated Person, but you do not think you have access to material, nonpublic information about Prudential, you should contact the Personal Trading Compliance Team to determine whether you should be reclassified. Please note, that as a Designated Person you may also have another classification under this Policy (e.g., Designated Person and Access Person). If so, you are required to comply with the strictest requirements of all such classifications.

The requirements and restrictions covered in this section apply to all accounts that hold and trade Prudential common stock (symbol: "PRU") in which a Designated Person or an Immediate Family member has a direct or indirect beneficial interest and exercise investment discretion.

Code of Ethics and Personal Trading Policy and Procedures

Trading Windows for Designated Persons

Designated Persons are permitted to exercise their Prudential options and trade in PRU only during certain "open trading windows". Trading windows will be closed for periods surrounding the preparation and release of Prudential's financial results. Prudential may also close the trading window at other unscheduled times and would provide notice when doing so. Approximately 48 hours after Prudential releases its quarterly earnings to the public, the trading window generally opens and will remain open until approximately three weeks before the end of the quarter.

Although certain automated blocks have been put in place to prevent trading when the trading window is closed, it is ultimately the Designated Person's obligation to only trade Prudential related securities when the trading window is open. If a blocking system fails, the Designated Person remains responsible if a violation occurs.

Preclearance Requirements for Designated Persons

During the "open trading windows", certain Designated Persons must obtain preclearance approval from Prudential Corporate Compliance prior to trading in Prudential related: common stock; bonds; Employee stock options; restricted stock; performance shares/units; exchange traded or other options; single stock futures; the Prudential Financial, Inc. Common Stock Fund; or engaging in any Prudential related transactions under the Prudential Stock Purchase Plan (PSPP), Prudential Deferred Compensation Plan, or Prudential Employee Savings Plan (PESP) affecting the Prudential Financial, Inc. Common Stock Fund.

The preclearance requirement for Prudential related transactions excludes transactions in Prudential mutual funds and annuities.

Transactions affecting Prudential related securities must be completed during the open trading window and must be precleared when executed within Dividend Reinvestment Plans (DRIPs) , the Prudential Deferred Compensation Plan, the Prudential Employee Savings Plan (PESP) and the Prudential Stock Purchase Plan (PSPP). However, there are certain limited exceptions to these requirements such as initial plan enrollments, catch-up contribution elections, contribution and deferral rate changes, and dividend elections. Designated Persons should contact the Personal Trading Compliance Team or Prudential Corporate Compliance prior to engaging in a DRIP, PESP or PSPP related transaction.

Therefore, Designated Persons may not enter into "good until cancelled" or "limit" orders involving Prudential securities that carry over until the next trading day.

Trading Prohibitions for Designated Persons
