The conditional share award will vest in three equal tranches after three, four and five years following the date of the award, subject to a holding period to the fifth anniversary of the award.  
 
The award will be subject to continued employment and performance underpins based on three key areas: Revenue, Group Return on Invested Capital and brand and sustainability strategies.  The performance underpins will be tested at each vesting date. If the Company does not meet one or more of the performance underpins over the relevant vesting period then the Remuneration Committee would consider whether it was appropriate to scale back the level of pay-out under the award to reflect this.  For further information please consult our FY 2020/21 Directors' Remuneration Report.
