The grants of options have been made in London and are based on the closing share price on the London Stock Exchange on 5 April 2017 of 113p per share.

The number of shares that will vest under the PSP is conditional upon the satisfaction of three independent, equally weighted, performance measures as follows:

Performance Measure	Weighting of Measure	Performance Target
EPS	1/3rd	Statutory Earnings Per Share (EPS) before exceptional items (adjusted to reflect tax paid on a cash basis) of 13.5p (threshold, 25% vesting) to 16.5p (maximum, 100% vesting), measured as an aggregate over the three-year performance period ending 31 December 2019.
TSR	1/3rd	Total Shareholder Return (TSR) of median (threshold, 25% vesting) to upper quartile (maximum, 100% vesting) when ranked relative to companies in the FTSE250 (excluding investment trusts), measured over the three-year performance period ending 31 December 2019.
ROIC	1/3rd	Pre-tax Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) of 8.4% (threshold, 25% vesting) to 10.2% (maximum, 100% vesting), measured as an average over the three-year performance period ending 31 December 2019.

In exceptional circumstances the Remuneration Committee retains discretion to change performance measures and targets and the weightings attached to performance measures part-way through the performance period if there is a significant event such as a major transaction.

For the Executive Directors, any shares that vest will be subject to a post-vesting holding requirement that takes the total term of the award to a minimum of five years. Post-vesting clawback also applies to the Executive Directors awards. Awards to all participants are subject to pre-vesting malus.
