The vesting of the remaining 15% of the award (the "Carbon Part") is subject to reductions in the Company's Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions (with Scope 2 calculated on a market tCO2e basis) over a three-year period that commenced on 1 January 2025, using 2024 as the base year for measurement. 25% of the Carbon Part will vest for a reduction in emissions of 45% over the period, rising on a straight-line basis to full vesting of the Carbon Part for a reduction of 60% or more.
