Centamin plc ("Centamin" or "the Company")
(LSE:CEY, TSX:CEE)
Remuneration Policy Review Update
and Director/PDMR Share Awards
The Centamin Board of Directors, supported by the Remuneration Committee and Korn Ferry Hay Group, the Company's recently appointed specialist independent remuneration advisors, have commenced a full review of the current remuneration policy. The objective is to ensure the policy supports the corporate strategy, takes due account of best practice and incentivises the Executives in line with shareholder returns. Having taken input from major shareholders and proxy advisors, the Company aims to table a new policy for shareholder approval at the 2019 AGM.
In the interim, the Remuneration Committee has decided to make the following immediate changes to the current remuneration policy, implementing recent shareholder and proxy feedback. These changes will apply to the 2018 grant under the Performance Share Plan ("PSP").
The updated interim 2018 performance conditions applying to these awards are as follows:
| Metric | Weighting |
| Relative TSR vs bespoke gold mining peer group | 40% |
| EBITDA* | 20% |
| Gold production* | 40% |
* Targets are as set out in the 2017 Directors' Remuneration Report
The notable changes to the PSP performance conditions, previously detailed in the 2017 Directors' Remuneration Report, are the removal of the reserves replacement and dividend policy targets, thereby applying a greater weighting on a more focussed number of performance conditions. In addition, the bespoke gold mining peer group, used as a benchmark for relative Total Shareholder Return ("TSR") performance, has been appropriately updated to include a broader group of relevant gold mining comparable companies. Under the PSP, there is a three-year performance period to which TSR, EBITDA and gold production performance measures are calculated. The 2018 PSP three-year financial period commenced on 1 January 2018 and ends on 31 December 2020. Full details of the performance conditions can be found at http://www.centamin.com/investors/corporate-governance/code-of-conduct-and-other-policies .
