Executive Contract: Stephen P McGill

 

1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

6.2                          The Company reserves the right to terminate your
employment prior to the end of the Fixed Term Period, in which event (and unless
such termination is under the provision as provided in clause 6.3 of this
Agreement or under the provisions for summary termination at clause 25 of this
Agreement) the Company will immediately pay you a sum equal to the aggregate of
the salary, pension contribution and the grade allowance (but not the
discretionary bonus) that would otherwise have been payable during the remainder
of the Fixed Term Period (the “Fixed Term Early Payment Period”). In the event
that the Company gives you Notice after 31st May 2007 so that your employment
ends after the Fixed Term Period, the Company reserves the right to apportion
the payment to you for the Notice Period under this clause 6 for the Fixed Term
Early Payment Period and under clause 7 for the remainder of the Notice Period.

 

6.3                          If, however, your employment is terminated by the
Company at any time because you have failed to attain or maintain competence or
because you have failed a “good repute” check as required by the Company for FSA
Regulatory purposes, then the Company may terminate your employment prior to the
end of the Fixed Term Period or the Notice Period by giving you 1 month’s
written notice expiring at any time or statutory written notice if this is
greater.

 

6.4                          This Agreement shall be in substitution for any
subsisting service agreement or contract of employment (oral or otherwise)
between you and the Company or between you and any other Group Company which
shall be deemed to have been terminated by mutual consent with effect from the
Effective Date.

 

7.                                If your employment continues after the Fixed
Term Period, the Company may (subject to clause 6.2 of this Agreement) in its
sole discretion make a payment of basic salary in lieu of giving you notice
throughout the Notice Period. In this event you will not be entitled to any
discretionary or contractual bonus or to any salary increases for the period in
which you would otherwise have worked. The payment in lieu of notice may at the
Company’s option be made in one lump sum or in instalments no less frequent than
such basic salary would otherwise have been paid. The Company will, subject to
clauses 8 and 9 make provision for:

 

7.1                          the continuation of additional benefits as et out
in paragraph 14 and 15 of the Schedule from the date of the termination for a
period equivalent to the notice period referred to in clause 6;

 

2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

7.2         you will be granted retirement benefits which when aggregated with
any Revaluation are equal to those to which you would have been entitled had you
worked until the End Date (meaning expiry of the notice period referred to in
clause 6 , or until your Normal Retirement Date as specified in paragraph 9 of
the Schedule (if earlier), at a salary equivalent to your basic salary at the
date of the termination. For this purpose, “Revaluation” means any revaluation
or increase in your retirement benefits in respect of the period between the
date of termination and the End Date assuming that price inflation is throughout
that period at the same rate as it was over the 12 month period ending on the
date of termination. No account will be taken of any benefits attributable to
additional voluntary contributions. The benefits shall be provided at the
Company’s discretion from either: -

 

7.2.1      the Exempt Approved Pension Scheme specified in paragraph 10 of the
Schedule (subject to the consent of the trustees for the time being of the said
scheme), or

 

7.2.2      any other Exempt Approved Scheme, or

 

7.2.3      a combination of 7.2.1 and 7.2.2.

 

8.           Clause 7.2 shall be subject to the consent of the Inland Revenue
(if necessary) and to any limits from time to time imposed by the Inland Revenue
upon Exempt Approved Schemes, and clause 7.2 shall operate only to the extent
(if at all) as permitted by the Inland Revenue. The expression “Exempt Approved
Scheme” shall have the meaning given to it by Section 592(1) of the Income and
Corporation Taxes Act 1988.

 

9.           The provision of the additional benefits referred to in clause 7.1
will cease immediately should you commence new employment at any time prior to
the expiry of the period referred to in clause 6.

 

10.         This Agreement will terminate automatically on the date as set out
in paragraph 9 of the Schedule. You shall be entitled to participate in any
bonus scheme as described in clause 13, on a pro-rata basis in your final year
of service under this Agreement, should your Normal Retirement Date fall other
than on the date on which the bonus is calculated.

 

11.         You shall be paid an annual salary of not less than that specified
in paragraph 6 of the Schedule, and such salary will accrue from day to day and
will be paid monthly in arrears.

 

12.         During the period of your employment the Company shall annually, on
the date specified in paragraph 7 of the Schedule, review your salary and any
subsequent salary change will have regard to your performance and other
circumstances which the Company considers relevant.

13.         At the Company’s sole discretion you shall be entitled to
participate in such incentive or bonus scheme(s) which the Company may offer to

benefits, all sums owing from you to the Company or any Group Company.

16.1       membership of the pension scheme referred to in paragraph 10 of the
Schedule, or such scheme(s) as the Company may from time to time operate for its
employees in accordance with your offer of membership, and the rules of the
scheme(s) from time to time;

 

16.2       those benefits as may from time to time be in force details of which
are set out in paragraph 14 of the Schedule subject always to the provisions of
any rules governing the availability of such benefits;

 

16.3       other benefits from time to time in force including, but not limited
to, those benefits as set out in paragraph 15 and 16 of the Schedule, subject
always to the rules of each of the schemes therein referred to or other
applicable rules in force from time to time.

 

17.         The rules governing absence from work due to sickness or injury are
set out in the Employee Handbook. Subject to those rules, you shall be entitled
to your full salary and benefits for up to an aggregate of 6 months in any 12
month period for absence due to sickness or injury, and thereafter will be
eligible for consideration to receive benefit under the long term disability
scheme referred to in paragraph 16 of the Schedule, subject to the rules of that
scheme or other applicable rules in force from time to time.

 

18.         Your principal place of work at the date hereof is as set out in

Group Company shall reasonably require.

 

19.         The Company has the right as a term of your employment to transfer

·      your domestic circumstances being taken into account;

 

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

·      whether relocation would be required in your case and, if so, the terms
for such relocation;

·      where relocation is neither proposed nor considered necessary for a
change of the geographical area in which you would undertake your duties,
whether the proposed new area will be realistically accessible from your normal
residence.

 

Temporary transfers will be proposed principally to cover short-term
requirements at other locations. As these may occur at short notice, the Company
will take into account the grounds for any objections you may raise about such a
temporary move, while reserving the right to insist on your compliance with a
requirement for such a temporary transfer.
