In accordance with the terms of the LTIP that was approved by the Company's shareholders in August 2004, awards to the participants in the LTIP are dependent upon the Total Shareholder Return ("TSR") (being the value of the capital gain and reinvested dividends, if any) of the Company against its comparator group and the underlying financial performance of the Company over a three year period.
The vesting date for the above awards is 2nd July, 2010. No shares will be released to participants unless the Company's TSR performance is in the median position of the comparator group and full vesting only if the Company is in the upper quartile. 30% of the award will vest if performance is at the median, and where performance is between the 50th and 75th percentiles awards will vest on a straight line basis.
