If Performance Allowances are used, they shall apply to all Qualifying Employees.

for the purposes of an Award of Free Shares an employee must not be a member of more than one performance unit.

notify all Qualifying Employees of any Participating Company, in general terms, of the performance targets and measures to be used to determine the number or value of Free Shares to be awarded to each Participant in the Award.

to accept an offer of cash, with or without other assets, for their Free Shares if the offer forms part of a general offer (which can be made to different shareholders by different means) which is made to holders of shares of the same class as their Shares, or to holders of shares in the same company and which is made in the first instance on a condition such that if it is satisfied the person making the offer shall have Control of that company; or

to exercise a right arising under section 983 of the Companies Act 2006 to require the offeror to acquire their Free Shares, in the case of a takeover offer (as defined in section 974 of the Companies Act 2006) that relates to the Parent Company and where the class or classes of shares to which the takeover offer relates includes the class of their Shares; or

to agree to a transaction affecting their Free Shares or such of them as are of a particular class, if the transaction would be entered into pursuant to a compromise, arrangement or scheme applicable to or affecting:

The notification in Rule 6.9 above shall be given:

if there is no Accumulation Period, before the deduction of the Partnership Share Money relating to the Award; and

if there is an Accumulation Period, before the beginning of the Accumulation Period relating to the Award.

The Trustees shall acquire Shares on behalf of the Qualifying Employee using the Partnership Share Money. They shall acquire the Shares on the Acquisition Date. The number of Shares awarded to each employee shall be determined in accordance with the Market Value of the Shares on that date.

If there is an Accumulation Period, the Trustees shall acquire Shares on behalf of the Qualifying Employee, on the Acquisition Date, using the Partnership Share Money. Any Accumulation Period must not exceed 12 months and must be the same for all Participants in a particular Award.

The number of Shares acquired on behalf of each Participant shall be determined by reference to one of the following methods:

the lower of the Market Value of the Shares at the beginning of the Accumulation Period and the Market Value of the Shares on the Acquisition Date;

the Market Value of the Shares at the beginning of the Accumulation Period; and

the Market Value of the Shares on the Acquisition Date,

If a transaction occurs during an Accumulation Period which results in a new holding of Shares being equated for the purposes of capital gains tax with any of the Shares to be acquired under the Partnership Share Agreement, the employee may agree that the Partnership Share Agreement shall have effect after the time of that transaction as if it were an agreement for the purchase of shares comprised in the new holding.

Any surplus Partnership Share Money remaining after the acquisition of Shares by the Trustees:

may, with the agreement of the Participant, be carried forward to the next Accumulation Period or the next deduction date; and

in any other case, shall be paid over to the Participant, subject to both deduction of income tax under PAYE and NICs, as soon as practicable.

Where the Participant ceases to be in Relevant Employment during an Accumulation Period, the Trustees shall repay all surplus Partnership Share Money to the Participant as soon as practicable.

the excess of the monthly deduction chosen by each applicant over £10 shall be reduced pro rata;

all monthly deductions shall be reduced to £10;

applications shall be selected by lot, each based on a monthly deduction of £10.

An employee may withdraw from a Partnership Share Agreement at any time by notice in writing to the Company. Unless a later date is specified in the notice, such a notice shall take effect 30 days after the Company receives it. Any Partnership Share Money then held on behalf of an employee shall be paid over to that employee as soon as practicable. This payment shall be subject to income tax under PAYE and NICs.

If approval to the Plan is withdrawn or a Plan Termination Notice is issued in respect of the Plan, any Partnership Share Money held on behalf of employees shall be repaid to them as soon as practicable, subject to deduction of income tax under PAYE, and NICs.

The Partnership Share Agreement sets out the basis on which a Participant is entitled to Matching Shares in accordance with this Part of the Rules.

Matching Shares shall:

be Shares of the same class and carrying the same rights as the Partnership Shares to which they relate;

subject to Rule 7.4, be awarded on the same day as the Partnership Shares to which they relate are acquired on behalf of the Participant; and

be awarded to all Participants on exactly the same basis.

The Partnership Share Agreement shall specify the ratio of Matching Shares to Partnership Shares for the time being offered by the Company and that ratio shall not exceed 2:1 (or such higher ratio as may be permitted under paragraph 60(2) of the Schedule). The Company may vary the ratio before Partnership Shares are acquired. Employees shall be notified of the terms of any such variation before the Partnership Shares are awarded under the Partnership Share Agreement.

If the Partnership Shares on the day referred to in Rule 7.2(b) above are not sufficient to produce a Matching Share, the match shall be made when sufficient Partnership Shares have been acquired to allow at least one Matching Share to be appropriated.

The Company shall, in relation to each Award Date, specify a Holding Period throughout which a Participant shall be bound by the terms of the Partnership Share Agreement. If, at any time during the Holding Period, the Participant ceases to be in Relevant Employment, the Participant's obligations with respect to that period come to an end.

The Holding Period shall, in relation to each Award, be a specified period of not less than 3 years nor more than 5 years, beginning with the Award Date and shall be the same for all Participants who receive an Award at the same time. The Holding Period shall not be increased in respect of Matching Shares awarded under the Plan.

to exercise a right arising under section 983 of the Companies Act 2006 to require the offeror to acquire their Matching Shares, in the case of a takeover offer (as defined in section 974 of the Companies Act 2006) that relates to the Parent Company and where the class or classes of shares to which the takeover offer relates includes the class of their Matching Shares; or

to pay all dividends in cash to all Participants; or

The Company may revoke or modify any direction for reinvestment of cash dividends.

If the amounts received by the Trustees exceed any limit specified by the Company, the balance shall be paid to the Participant as soon as practicable.

If dividends are to be reinvested, the Trustees shall apply the cash dividends to acquire Shares on behalf of the Participant on the Acquisition Date. The number of Dividend Shares acquired on behalf of each Participant shall be determined by the Market Value of the Shares on the Acquisition Date.

Any amount that is not reinvested because the amount of the cash dividend is insufficient to acquire a Share may be retained by the Trustees and carried forward to be added to the amount of the next cash dividend to be reinvested. Any amounts so carried forward must be separately identifiable.

If, during the period of 3 years beginning with the date on which the dividend was paid:

it is not reinvested; or

the Participant ceases to be in Relevant Employment; or

a Plan Termination Notice is issued,
