Long Term incentive Plan (LTIP)

During the year the Group introduced a new Long Term Incentive Plan.

The Company will issue up to 1,400,000 ordinary shares under the LTIP to Anthony Lawrinson, a Director of the Company. The ordinary shares are being issued as part of Anthony Lawrinson's remuneration package agreed at the time of his appointment to the Board in October 2011. Vesting is conditional upon and proportionate to the cumulative average growth (CAGR) in fully diluted earnings per share before exceptional items over a defined period from 1 April 2012 to 31 March 2015 with CAGR of 20% required for the whole amount to vest. The cost to Anthony Lawrinson of the ordinary shares to be issued under the LTIP if the performance criterion is met, will be nil. Anthony Lawrinson has no other options over ordinary shares.

The fair value of the LTIP granted during the year was based on the share price on the date the scheme was approved and the expected number of shares to vest.
