The award has been granted subject to performance conditions based on: (1) compound annual growth in Earnings Per Share over a three year performance period starting with 2017 (as regards 80% of the Ordinary Shares subject to the award); and (2) the Company's Total Shareholder Return ("TSR") over that performance period relative to the TSRs of the constituents of the FTSE SmallCap Index (excluding investment trusts) (as regards 20% of the Ordinary Shares subject to the award).

The award will be released so that the participant is entitled to acquire the vested Ordinary Shares following the end of a holding period which shall end on the second anniversary of the vesting date.
