As a reminder, the LTIP awards in the Share Price Growth column in the table are five year awards with a three year vesting period. The base price for the share price growth is 37.22p, a 55% increase from yesterday's closing price of 24.0p. They will vest when certain performance criteria have been met - 50% when a 33% growth from the base price share price has been achieved (a 106% increase from yesterday's closing price) within three years (10% per annum compound), a further 25% on a 52% increase from the base price (a 136% increase from yesterday's closing price), (15% per annum compound) over three years and the final 25% on a 73% increase from the base price (an 168% increase from yesterday's closing price), (20% per annum compound) over three years. The share price target must also be held for 30 calendar days.
The LTIP awards in the Pipeline column in the table are five year LTIP awards with a three year vesting period and relate to the successful installation of the pipeline and commencement of operations. The vesting of the pipeline LTIP awards will be determined by the Remuneration Committee's assessment of the results of the commissioning and operations of the pipeline.
