The awards made to Executive Directors disclosed in this announcement are the same awards disclosed in the separate Grant of Conditional Awards announcement released on 9 May 2025 pursuant to Rules 17.06A, 17.06B and 17.06C of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

Long term incentive awards ("LTI awards") were made to the Executive Directors named below, as part of variable pay for the performance year ended 31 December 2024. An LTI award is an award of Shares in the Company, with a three-year forward-looking performance period commencing on 1 January 2025 and ending on 31 December 2027.

At the end of this performance period, the number of Shares that vest will be determined based upon an assessment by the Group Remuneration Committee of performance against financial and non-financial measures in the LTI scorecard, as detailed in the Directors' Remuneration Report in the Annual Report and Accounts 2024. Subject to that assessment, the shares will vest in five equal annual instalments commencing from March 2028. Upon each vesting, a one-year retention period applies.

The LTI awards were made in London and are based upon the average closing Share price on the London Stock Exchange on the five days starting 24 February 2025 which is £9.07.
