The awards, which were made at nil cost, are subject to performance conditions.  Vesting will normally not occur before three years have elapsed.

There are three performance conditions applying to the awards:

1.   Forty percent of an award is subject to a performance condition based on average annual growth in the Company's earnings per share over a performance period of three financial years commencing with the financial year in which an award is granted.  Threshold vesting, resulting in one quarter of this element vesting, requires growth of 6% per annum, with full vesting requiring at least 14% per annum and straight line vesting in between.

2.   Forty percent of an award is subject to a performance condition based on the Return on Capital Employed ("ROCE") in the final year of the three-year performance period commencing with the financial year in which an award is granted.  Threshold vesting, resulting in one quarter of this element vesting, requires ROCE to increase to 13%, with full vesting at 15% or above and straight line vesting in between.

3.   Twenty percent of an award is subject to a performance condition comparing the Company's total shareholder return ("TSR") against the TSR of each company within a comparator group comprising 100 FTSE listed companies, being the 50 companies ranked by market value in the FTSE All-Share Index above the Company and the 50 companies ranked below the Company (excluding investment trusts) over a performance period of three financial years commencing with the financial year in which an award is granted.  Threshold vesting, resulting in one quarter of this element vesting, requires the Company's TSR to rank at median against the comparator group, with upper quartile ranking required for full vesting and straight line vesting in between.

The notifications at the end of the announcement, made in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation, provide further detail of the awards granted.
