A grant of Performance Share Awards was made on 27 May 2010 under the Premier Oil plc Long Term Incentive Plan to all participants, including executive directors and PDMRs.

 

In accordance with the rules of the Plan, the Performance Share Award is granted over shares with a value on grant of up to 150% of salary which are subject to a total shareholder return ("TSR") performance condition. The performance condition applying to the Performance Share Awards will require the Company's TSR to be at least at the median of a comparator group comprising approximately 35 other oil companies. The performance period for this award runs from 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2012. 50% of any shares vesting under the Performance Share Award will be subject to a mandatory deferral period of three years for executive directors, PDMRs, and other members of senior management.
