No consideration was paid for the grant of the LTIP Awards which are structured as nil cost options. The number of Ordinary Shares granted under each LTIP Award has been calculated using an Ordinary Share price of 462.9 pence per share being the average of the closing share prices over the five Dealing Days preceding the date of grant.
The normal vesting date of the LTIP Awards will be 7 April 2023, being the third anniversary of the award date. Once vested, the LTIP Awards will normally be exercisable until the day before the tenth anniversary of the award date. The LTIP Awards are subject to a two-year holding period commencing on vesting.
The LTIP Awards will normally vest after 3 years based on the compounded annual growth rate in the Earnings per Share (EPS) of the Independent Professional Services business measured over a 3 year period. At 4% p.a. growth 25% of the LTIP Award will vest rising on a straight-line basis to 100% for 10% p.a. growth. Under the LTIP Rules, the Remuneration Committee has full discretion to ensure that the final vesting outturn reflect all relevant factors, including consideration of any windfall gains.
