(ii) Relative TSR compared to a bespoke group of
comparators: 40%; and
(iii) Free Cash Flow Metric: 20%.
Full details of the bespoke TSR comparator group are set out in the Directors'
Remuneration Report included in the 2025 Annual Report and Accounts, available

Subject to the achievement of the performance criteria and the Remuneration
Committee's assessment of overall Company performance, the PSA Awards will
normally vest on 7 April 2029, in line with grants made to other eligible
employees. The Executive Directors will then be required to hold the net
shares for a further two years. The PSA Awards are also subject to malus and
clawback provisions.
The PSA Awards were calculated using the average of Harbour's closing share
price for the five dealing days preceding the award date.
