	Below Threshold (0% vesting)	Threshold (25% vesting)	On-target (50% vesting)	Maximum (100% vesting)

Ranking of easyJet's TSR (50% of total award)	< median	Median	upper quartile
	Below Threshold (0% vesting)	Threshold (25% vesting)	Maximum (100% vesting)

Awards vest on a straight-line basis between these points.

The Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) targets are based on average ROCE over the three year performance period (being three years from 1 October 2015).

The Total Shareholder Return (TSR) targets are based on relative TSR compared to companies ranked FTSE 31 to 130 at the start of the performance period, where the average share price is calculated over three months at the start and end of the period. In addition, in order for the TSR-based awards to vest, easyJet must have achieved positive absolute TSR performance over the performance period.

Table 2 below sets out the shares corresponding to the mandatory deferral of annual bonus under the DABP. The DABP Shares below are already included in, and are not in addition to, the bonus figures disclosed in the Annual report and accounts.
