Under the terms of the DBP plan, the DBP awards will become exercisable as to
one third of the shares subject to each award on each of the first three
anniversaries of the grant date.

 

In line with best practice and current investor guidance the quantum of the
2023 LTIP to Frank Mathias was scaled back from 200% of salary to 160% of
salary and for Stuart Paynter the quantum of the 2023 LTIP was scaled back by
30% from 175% of salary to 122.5% of salary. The quantum of 2023 LTIP granted
to other new members of SET was scaled back by 20%, all other members of the
set had their awards scaled back by 30%

 

The LTIP awards are subject to performance conditions. As set out in the 2022
Directors' Remuneration Report, the performance condition is based on TSR (40%
of the award, assessed over the three years from grant); revenue growth (40%
of the award, assessed over financial years 2023, 2024 and 2025) and strategic
milestones (20% of the award). Details of the measures are included in the
2022 Directors' Remuneration Report, other than as regards the strategic
milestones, which are commercially sensitive and will be disclosed in due
course.

 

The LTIP awards granted to Frank Mathias and Stuart Paynter will "vest"
following the assessment of the performance condition, but will only be
"released" so that they can be exercised following the end of a further two
year holding period. The 2023 awards granted to other participants will vest
and be released following the assessment of the performance condition.
