Grant of Performance Share Awards and Equity Pool Awards
Performance Share Awards and Equity Pool Awards (the "Awards") were granted to the Executive Directors named below on 12 April 2017 under the Company's 2009 Long Term Incentive Plan (the "2009 LTIP"). The Awards were approved in principle by the Remuneration Committee on 25 August 2016 with the grant of the Awards being postponed due to dealing restrictions as a result of the ongoing refinancing of the Group's debt.
The Awards will only vest if certain performance conditions are met. Details of these performance conditions are set out in the Directors' Remuneration Report within the 2016 Annual Report and Financial Statements.
The earliest vesting date for the Awards is 1 January 2019. 50% of any shares vesting from the Awards will be subject to a mandatory deferral period of three years and will not be eligible for a discretionary Matching Share Award.
Grant of Deferred Bonus Awards
Deferred Bonus Awards were granted to the Executive Directors named below on 12 April 2017 in relation to 2016 annual bonus payments above 50% of salary. The Deferred Bonus Awards vest three years from the date of grant.
