References in this announcement to £0.10 Ordinary Shares are to Post Consolidation Ordinary Shares (as such term is defined in the circular to shareholders dated 9 December 2009). The awards made pursuant to the Long Term Incentive Plan have not yet been adjusted to take into account the recent restructuring and share consolidation, hence these awards are currently expressed in terms of £0.01 Ordinary Shares in the table above. The Deferred Shares were issued to all holders of ordinary shares in the capital of the Company as part of the share reorganisation (full details of which were set out in the circular to shareholders dated 9 December 2009) which was approved by shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting on 6 January 2010.
