The revised Policy introduces LTIP awards for the Executive Directors that integrate both performance-based elements (i.e. Performance Share Plan ('PSP')) and time-based elements (i.e. Restricted Share Plan ('RSP')). In line with the revised Policy, the following awards have been made under the JD Sports Fashion Plc Long Term Incentive Plan 2022 ('LTIP'):
