No consideration was paid for the grant of the awards. The vesting of the awards and options is subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions, which will be assessed over three years. Having regard to the uncertainty caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, the Remuneration Committee has decided to defer setting exact performance measures and targets at this point, and these will be set by the latest at the mid-point of financial year 2021.  The performance measures and targets for the Executive Directors' will be confirmed in the Directors' Remuneration Report for the 2021 financial year. 
Each award and option is granted subject to a condition that the Remuneration Committee may reduce the extent of vesting if and to the extent it considers that any of the value of the award or option represents a windfall gain caused by the impact on the price of a share of the Covid-19 pandemic.  
The awards granted to the Executive Directors and other PDMRs are subject to an additional condition that ordinarily all of the shares acquired (after sales to cover tax) must be retained until the second anniversary of the vesting date.
The Notification of Dealing Forms set out below are provided in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation.
