No payment was required for the grant of the Awards.
The Remuneration Committee confirmed on page 85 of the Annual Report, that for
the FY23 LTIP award we were reviewing our long-term incentive targets,
ensuring they are appropriately stretching and motivational.
The Committee chose to delay the setting of the EPS target to ensure that it
could consider all relevant information. The Remuneration Committee is now
able to confirm the EPS target, which is set out below:
EPS Figure Percentage of Award that Vests
Less than 17.3 pence Nil
17.3 pence 12.5%
Greater than 17.3 pence but less than 23.1 pence Straight-line basis between 12.5% and 50%
Greater than 23.1 pence but less than 30.6 pence Straight-line basis between 50% and 100%
30.6 pence 100%
The performance conditions for the FY23 LTIP awards are consistent with the
Company's approved Directors' Remuneration Policy.
The Awards will ordinarily become exercisable on the third anniversary of the
date of grant and remain exercisable up to and including the tenth anniversary
of the date of grant, subject to the grantee's continued service and to the
extent that the performance target applicable to the Awards has been met. The
awards are subject to a two-year hold period which will end on the fifth
anniversary of the date of grant.
