Imperial Brands PLC (the "Company") Long Term Incentive Plan

 

Grant of 2023 LTIP awards

 

On 15 February 2023, the Company made the following grant of awards under the
Imperial Brands Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") to PDMRs:

 

 PDMR                No. of shares under LTIP award granted
 Stefan Bomhard      231,904
 Lukas Paravicini    90,257
 Alison Clarke       55,446
 Anindya Dasgupta *  72,007
 Javier Huerta       56,937
 Murray McGowan      47,121
 Paola Pocci         48,348
 Kim Reed **         66,250
 Sean Roberts        39,090
 Ales Struminsky     44,578

 

* The award which was granted to Anindya Dasgupta on 15 February 2023 was
granted over 72,007 'notional' shares. Accordingly, when this LTIP award vests
(subject to the performance conditions described below having been met and the
rules of the LTIP) Mr Dasgupta will receive a cash payment which is equal in
value to the number of notional shares which have vested in connection with
this LTIP award.

** The award which was granted to Kim Reed was comprised of two elements:

The first element of Ms Reed's award was granted over 33,125 shares in
Imperial Brands PLC. This element has been granted as a conditional award
under the LTIP and is subject to the performance conditions and terms which
are applicable to all other 2023 LTIP awards granted on the same date (as
outlined above). This element of Ms Reed's LTIP award will vest on or about 15
February 2026, subject to the extent to which the applicable performance
conditions have been met; and

The second element of Ms Reed's award was granted over a further 33,125 shares
in Imperial Brands PLC. This element has been granted as a conditional award
under the LTIP and is not subject to any performance conditions (although it
remains subject to the rules of the LTIP, including applicable malus and
clawback provisions and the ability of the Remuneration Committee to adjust
the vesting outcome of such award on a discretionary basis). This element of
Ms Reed's LTIP award will vest in three tranches of 11,041 shares on 15
February 2024, 11,042 shares on 15 February 2025 and 11,042 shares on 15
February 2026.

 

Further to the commitment in its Annual Report and Accounts 2022, the Company
confirms that the performance measures and targets (which should not be
construed as guidance) in respect of the Imperial Brands LTIP grant made on 15
February 2023 are:

 

Adjusted Earnings per Share Growth Element

This criterion determines the vesting of 40 per cent of the shares under award
with the following vesting schedule:

 

 Compound annual adjusted EPS growth ***  Shares vesting (as a percentage of element)
 Less than 4.4% per annum                 nil
 4.4% per annum                           25%
 4.4% to 6.3% per annum                   Between 25% and 100% (pro rata)
 6.3% per annum or higher                 100%

 

The adjusted EPS element excludes the effect of any share buyback on the share
count and any associated financing costs, as appropriate.

 

Average Annual Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)*** Element

The ROIC criterion is used for 20 per cent of the award with the following
vesting schedule:

 

 Average Annual Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)***  Shares vesting (as a percentage of element)
 Less than 20.2%                                      nil
 20.2%                                                25%
 Between 20.2% and 21.0%                              Between 25% and 100% (pro rata)
 21.0% or higher                                      100%

 

***        All the financial measures are measured on a constant
currency basis which is consistent with the approach agreed by the
Remuneration Committee of Imperial Brands and has been in place since 2015.

Total Shareholder Return Element

The relative total shareholder return ("TSR") criterion is used for 40 per
cent of the award. The peer group used for the assessment of relative TSR
is:

 

 Altria Group             Anheuser-Busch InBev  British American Tobacco  Brown-Forman                 Carlsberg
 Carnival                 Clorox                Constellation Brands      Diageo                       Heineken
 Henkel                   Japan Tobacco         Kimberly-Clark            Kirin Holdings               L'Oreal
 Monster Beverage         Pernod Ricard         Pepsico                   Philip Morris International  Procter & Gamble
 Reckitt Benckiser Group  Uni Charm             Unilever PLC

 

Vesting of awards on this element would occur as per the vesting schedule
below:

 

 Relative TSR performance           Shares vesting (as percentage of element)
 Below median of peer group         nil
 At median of peer group            25%
 Between median and upper quartile  Between 25% and 100% (pro rata)
 At or above upper quartile         100%

 

Each element operates independently and is capable of vesting regardless of
the Company's performance in respect of the other elements. The Remuneration
Committee retains the discretion under the rules of the LTIP to adjust up or
down including to zero the number of shares that vest taking into account a
number of factors including personal or corporate performance and
circumstances that were unforeseen at the date of grant.
