Share Incentive Schemes based on the average share price

Note to Editors
Jardine Matheson is a multinational Group of seven core
businesses focused primarily on the Asia-Pacific region. Its
operations employ some 150,000 people and its activities are
leaders in the fields of supermarkets, consumer marketing,
engineering and construction, insurance broking, motor
trading, property and hotels.
The Group has undergone a sustained shift in emphasis over
recent years as businesses that did not present the
opportunity for profitable scale or market leadership have
been exited. The Group is building its core businesses
largely in Asia Pacific with the goal of enhancing shareholder
value for the long term.
The primary listing of the parent company, Jardine Matheson
Holdings Limited, is in London, with secondary listings in
Singapore and in Bermuda. The Company is incorporated in
Bermuda and the Group is managed from Hong Kong by Jardine
Matheson Limited.
