The SSPP operates as follows
Each month the Trustee uses participants' contributions (which may not exceed £115 per participant per four weekly period) to purchase Shares in the market. These shares are called 'Partnership Shares'.
At the same time the Company allocated to participants via the Trustee one share for every four Partnership Shares purchased that four weekly period. These shares are called 'Matching Shares'.
