No consideration was paid for the grant of the RSP Awards which are structured as nil cost options. The number of Ordinary Shares granted under each RSP Award has been calculated using an Ordinary Share price of 40.53 pence per share being the average of the closing share prices over the three Dealing Days preceding the date of grant.
The normal vesting date of the RSP Awards will be 13 May 2023, being the third anniversary of the award date. Once vested, the RSP Awards will normally be exercisable until the day before the tenth anniversary of the award date. The RSP Awards are subject to a two-year holding period commencing on vesting.
The RSP Awards will ordinarily vest after three years subject to the grantee's continued service and a discretionary underpin that allows the Remuneration Committee to make adjustments to the level of vesting if the Committee believes due to business performance, individual performance or wider Company considerations that the vesting should be adjusted. This will include consideration of all relevant factors, including any windfall gains.
