Rules of the Aviva Long Term Incentive
Plan 2011


 


		1	Granting Awards



 


		1.1	Grantor



 


The Grantor of an Award must be:


 


		1.1.1	the Company;



 


		1.1.2	any other Member of the Group; or



 


		1.1.3	a trustee of any trust set up for the benefit of Employees.



 


An Award granted under the Plan,
and the terms of that Award, must be approved in advance by the Directors.


 


		1.2	Eligibility



 


The Grantor may grant an Award
to anyone who is an Employee on the Award Date in accordance with any selection criteria that the Directors in their discretion
may set. However, unless the Directors consider that special circumstances exist, an Award may not be granted to an Employee who
on the Award Date has given or received notice of termination of employment, whether or not such termination is lawful.


 


		1.3	Timing of Award



 


Awards may not be granted at any
time after the Expiry Date. Awards may only be granted within 42 days starting on any of the following:


 


		1.3.1	the date of shareholder approval;



 


		1.3.2	the day after the announcement of the Company’s results for any period;



 


		1.3.3	any day on which the Directors resolve that exceptional circumstances exist which justify the grant
of Awards;



 


		1.3.4	any day on which changes to the legislation or regulations affecting share plans are announced,
effected or made; or



 


		1.3.5	the lifting of Dealing Restrictions which prevented the granting of Awards during any period specified
above.



 


		1.4	Terms of Awards



 


Awards are subject to the rules
of the Plan, any Performance Condition and any other condition imposed under rule 1.6 (Other conditions) and must be granted by
deed. The terms of the Award must be determined by the Grantor and approved by the Directors. The terms must be set out in the
deed or other document (which may be in electronic form), including:


 


		1.4.1	whether the Award is:



 


		(i)	a Conditional Award;



 


		(ii)	an Option;



 


or a combination of these;


 






    	1



    	 



    

 


		1.4.2	the number of Shares subject to the Award or the basis on which the number of Shares subject to
the Award will be calculated;



 


		1.4.3	any Performance Condition;



 


		1.4.4	any other condition specified under rule 1.6 (Other conditions);



 


		1.4.5	the expected date of Vesting which will normally be the third anniversary of the Award Date or
otherwise specified in a Performance Condition;



 


		1.4.6	whether the Participant is entitled to receive any Dividend Equivalent;



 


		1.4.7	the Award Date; and



 


		1.4.8	the Option Price (if relevant).



 


		1.5	Performance Conditions



 


When granting an Award, the Grantor
may, and must in the case of executive directors, make its Vesting conditional on the satisfaction of one or more conditions linked
to the performance of the Company. A Performance Condition must be objective and specified at the Award Date. The Grantor, with
the consent of the Directors, may waive or change a Performance Condition in accordance with its terms or if anything happens which
causes the Grantor reasonably to consider it appropriate to do so.


 


		1.6	Other conditions



 


The Grantor may impose other conditions
when granting an Award. Any condition must be objective, specified at the Award Date and may provide that an Award will lapse if
it is not satisfied. The Grantor, with the consent of the Directors, may waive or change a condition imposed under this rule 1.6
(Other conditions).


 


		1.7	Award certificates



 


Each Participant will receive a
certificate setting out the terms of the Award as soon as practicable after the Award Date. The certificate may be the deed referred
to in rule 1.4 (Terms of Awards) or any other document (which may be in electronic form), including a statement. If any certificate
is lost or damaged the Company may replace it on such terms as it decides.


 


		1.8	No payment



 


A Participant is not required to
pay for the grant of any Award.


 


		1.9	Administrative errors



 


If the Grantor grants an Award
which is inconsistent with rule 1.2 (Eligibility), it will lapse immediately. If the Grantor tries to grant an Award which is inconsistent
with rules 1.10 (Individual limit for Awards), 1.11 (Plan limits - 10 per cent) or 1.12 (Plan limits - 5 per cent), the Award will
be limited and will take effect from the Award Date on a basis consistent with those rules.


 


		1.10	Individual limit for Awards



 


An Award must not be granted to
an Employee if it would, at the proposed Award Date, cause the market value of Shares subject to Awards that he has been granted
in that financial year under the Plan to exceed 350% of the annual rate of his total basic salary, at a date determined by the
Directors, from Members of the Group.


 






    	2



    	 



    

 


This limit may be exceeded in respect
of Participants located in the U.S.A provided that the Directors determine that exceptional circumstances make it desirable that
Awards to such Participants should be granted in excess of that limit. In these circumstances, the Awards will not exceed 450%.


 


For the purpose of this rule 1.10
(Individual limit for Awards) and unless the Directors determine otherwise, “market value” means the average of the
closing middle market quotations for a Share taken from the Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange (or, in the case of
an ADR, the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange as reported in the Wall Street Journal) for any three consecutive
business days in the thirty day period immediately preceding the Award Date.


 


“Basic salary” means
gross salary before adjustment to take account of any flexible benefits and excludes bonuses and benefits in kind. Basic salary
payable in a currency other than Sterling will be converted into Sterling in such manner as the Directors decide.


 


		1.11	Plan limits - 10 per cent



 


A Grantor must not grant an Award
if the number of Shares committed to be issued under that Award exceeds 10 per cent of the ordinary share capital of the Company
in issue immediately before that day, when added to the number of Shares which have been issued, or committed to be issued, to
satisfy Awards under the Plan, or options or awards under any other employee share plan operated by the Company, granted in the
previous 10 years.


 


		1.12	Plan limits - 5 per cent



 


A Grantor must not grant an Award
if the number of Shares committed to be issued under that Award exceeds 5 per cent of the ordinary share capital of the Company
in issue immediately before that day, when added to the number of Shares which have been issued, or committed to be issued, to
satisfy Awards under the Plan, or options or awards under any other discretionary employee share plan adopted by the Company, granted
in the previous 10 years.


 


		1.13	Scope of Plan limits



 


Where the right to acquire Shares
is released or lapses, the Shares concerned are ignored when calculating the limits in rules 1.11 (Plan limits - 10 per cent) and
1.12 (Plan limits - 5 per cent).


 


As long as so required by the Association
of British Insurers, Shares transferred from treasury are counted as part of the ordinary share capital of the Company, and as
Shares issued by the Company.


 


		2	Before Vesting



 


		2.1	Rights



 


A Participant is not entitled to
vote, to receive dividends or to have any other rights of a shareholder in respect of Shares subject to an Option or a Conditional
Award until the Shares are issued or transferred to the Participant.


 






    	3



    	 



    

 


		2.2	Transfer



 


A Participant may not transfer,
assign or otherwise dispose of an Award or any rights in respect of it. If he does, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, then
it will immediately lapse. This rule 2.2 (Transfer) does not apply:


 


		2.2.1	to the transmission of an Award on the death of a Participant to his personal representatives;
or



 


		2.2.2	to the assignment of an Award, with the prior consent of the Directors, subject to any terms and
conditions the Directors impose.



 


		2.3	Adjustment of Awards



 


If there is:


 


		2.3.1	a variation in the equity share capital of the Company, including a capitalisation or rights issue,
sub-division, consolidation or reduction of share capital;



 


		2.3.2	a demerger (in whatever form) or exempt distribution by virtue of Section 1075 of the Income and
Corporation Taxes Act 2010;



 


		2.3.3	a special dividend or distribution; or



 


		2.3.4	any other corporate event which might affect the current or future value of any Award,



 


the Directors may adjust the number
or class of Shares or securities subject to the Award and, in the case of an Option, the Option Price.


 


		2.4	Reduction or cancellation of Awards



 


The Directors may decide that an
Award which has not Vested (or, in the case of Options, been exercised) will lapse wholly or in part if they consider that:


 


		2.4.1	the Participant or his team has, in the opinion of the Directors, engaged in misconduct which ought
to result in the complete or partial lapse of his Award; and/or



 


		2.4.2	there is a materially adverse misstatement of the Company’s financial statements.



 


		3	Vesting of Awards



 


		3.1	Determination of Performance Condition



 


As soon as reasonably practicable
after the end of the Performance Period, the Directors will determine how many Shares Vest for each Award on the basis of whether
and to what extent any Performance Condition or other condition imposed under rule 1.6 (Other conditions) has been satisfied or
waived and if any adjustments are to be made under rule 3.3 (Performance adjustment).


 


		3.2	Timing of Vesting



 


Subject to rules 1.6 (Other conditions),
5 (Vesting in other circumstances - personal events) and 6 (Vesting in other circumstances - corporate events), an Award Vests,
to the extent determined under rule 3.1 (Determination of Performance Condition), on latest of:


 


		3.2.1	the expected date of Vesting determined by the Grantor under rule 1.4.5;



 






    	4



    	 



    

 


		3.2.2	the date on which the Directors make their determination under rule 3.1 (Determination of Performance
Condition); and



 


		3.2.3	if relevant, a date determined by the Directors which is on or after the first date on which Vesting
is not prohibited by a Dealing Restriction.



 


		3.3	Performance adjustment



 


The Directors may adjust downwards
(including to nil) the number of Shares in respect of which an Award Vests if, in their discretion, they determine that the performance
of the Company, any Member of the Group, any business area or team [and the conduct, capability or performance of the Participant]
justifies an adjustment.


 


		3.4	Lapse



 


To the extent that any Performance
Condition is not satisfied at the end of the Performance Period, the Award lapses, unless otherwise specified in the Performance
Condition. To the extent that any other condition is not satisfied, the Award will lapse if so specified in the terms of that condition.
If an Award lapses under the Plan it cannot Vest and a Participant has no rights in respect of it.


 


		4	Consequences of Vesting



 


		4.1	Conditional Award



 


Within 30 days of a Conditional
Award Vesting, the Grantor will arrange (subject to rules 4.4, 0 and 8.8) for the transfer (including a transfer out of treasury)
or issue, to, or to the order of, the Participant, of the number of Shares in respect of which the Conditional Award has Vested.


 


		4.2	Options



 


		4.2.1	A Participant may exercise his Option on any day after Vesting on which no Dealing Restriction
applies by giving notice in the prescribed form to the Grantor or any person nominated by the Grantor and paying the Option Price
(if any). Vested and unvested Options will lapse:



 


		(i)	for Options granted with a market value Option Price, on the tenth anniversary of grant of the
Option (unless the reason for Vesting is the Participant’s death, in which case the Option will lapse 12 months after Vesting);
and



 


		(ii)	for Options granted with a zero, or less than market value Option Price, six months after Vesting
(unless the reason for Vesting is the Participant’s death, in which case the Option will lapse 12 months after Vesting),



 


or, in either
case if earlier, on the earliest of:


 


		(a)	the date the Participant ceases to be an Employee by reason of dismissal for misconduct; or



 


		(b)	six months after an event which gives rise to a Vesting under rule 5.2 (“Good leavers”),
5.4 (Overseas transfer), 6 (Vesting in other circumstances - corporate events) or, if earlier, the date six weeks after the date
on which a notice to acquire Shares under section 979 of the Companies Act 2006 is first served.



 






    	5



    	 



    

 


		4.2.2	Subject to rules 4.4 (Alternative ways to satisfy Awards), 4.5 (Withholding), and 8.8 (Consents),
the Grantor will arrange for Shares to be transferred to or issued to, or to the order of, the Participant within 30 days of the
date on which the Option is exercised.



 


		4.2.3	If an Option Vests under more than one provision of the rules of the Plan, the provision resulting
in the shortest exercise period will prevail.



 


		4.3	Dividend Equivalent



 


Awards will not include any rights
in respect of dividends on the Shares comprised in the Award before Vesting, unless the Grantor, in its discretion, decides otherwise
at the Award Date. The Grantor may determine that an Award includes the right to receive a Dividend Equivalent. Dividend Equivalents
will be paid to any relevant Participant as soon as practicable after Vesting.


 


The Grantor will exercise the discretions
in this rule 4.3 (Dividend Equivalent) subject to the consent of the Directors.


 


		4.4	Alternative ways to satisfy Awards



 


The Grantor may, subject to the
approval of the Directors, decide to satisfy an Option or a Conditional Award by paying an equivalent amount in cash (subject to
rule 4.5 (Withholding)). For Options, the cash amount must be equal to the amount by which the market value of the Shares in respect
of which the Option is exercised exceeds the Option Price. Alternatively, the Grantor may decide to satisfy an Option by procuring
the issue or transfer of Shares to the value of the cash amount specified above.


 


The Company may determine that
an Award will be satisfied in cash at the Award Date or at any time before satisfaction of the Award, including after Vesting or,
in the case of an Option, after exercise.


 


In respect of Awards which consist
of a right to receive a cash amount, the Directors may decide instead to satisfy such Awards (and any Dividend Equivalents) by
the delivery of Shares (subject to rule 4.5 (Withholding)). The number of Shares will be calculated by reference to the market
value of the Shares on the date of Vesting for Conditional Awards and the date of exercise for Options.


 


For the purpose of this rule 4.4
(Alternative ways to satisfy Awards) and unless the Directors determine otherwise, “market value” means the closing
middle market quotation for a Share taken from the Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange (or, in the case of an ADR,
the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange as reported in the Wall Street Journal) on the date of Vesting or, in the
case of an Option, the date of exercise.


 


		4.5	Withholding



 


The Company, the Grantor, any employing
company or trustee of any employee benefit trust may withhold such amount and make such arrangements as it considers necessary
to meet any liability to taxation or social security contributions in respect of Awards. These arrangements may include the sale
or reduction in number of any Shares on behalf of the Participant.


 






    	6



    	 



    

 


		5	Vesting in other circumstances - personal events



 


		5.1	General rule on leaving employment



 


Subject to rule 5.2 (“Good
leavers”), an Award which has not Vested will cease to be capable of Vesting on the date on which the Participant gives or
receives notice of termination of his employment with any Member of the Group (whether or not such termination is lawful), unless
the Directors decide otherwise.


 


An Award will lapse on the date
the Participant ceases to an Employee unless one of the reasons in rule 5.2 applies.


 


This rule 5.1 will not apply where
the Vesting of an Award is delayed due to a Dealing Restriction, unless the Participant ceases to be an Employee by reason of dismissal
for misconduct.


 


		5.2	“Good leavers”1



 


		5.2.1	If a Participant ceases to be an Employee for any of the reasons set out below, then his Awards
will Vest as described in rule 5.3 (Vesting) and lapse as to the balance. The reasons are:



 


		(i)	disability, as established to the satisfaction of the Company;



 


		(ii)	death; and



 


		(iii)	any other reason, if the Directors so decide in any particular case.



 


		5.2.2	The Directors must exercise the discretion provided for in rule 5.2.1(iii) within 30 days after
cessation of the relevant Participant’s employment.



 


		5.3	Vesting



 


Where rule 5.2 (“Good Leavers”)
applies, the Award does not lapse, and the extent to which it will Vest is measured in accordance with rule 3.1 (Determination
of Performance Condition) at the end of the Performance Period. However, the Performance Period in respect of an Award will be
treated as ending on the date of the termination of employment, and the Award will Vest immediately, to the extent that the Performance
Condition has been or is likely to be satisfied (as determined by the Directors in the manner specified in the Performance Condition
or in such manner as they consider reasonable) where a Participant has died or where the Directors so decide in their discretion.


 


Unless the Directors decide otherwise,
the Award should be reduced pro rata to reflect the number of days from the start of the Performance Period until cessation of
the Participant’s employment as a proportion of the number of days of the Performance Period.


 


		5.4	Overseas transfer



 


If a Participant remains an Employee
but is transferred to work in another country or changes tax residence status and, as a result he would:


 


		5.4.1	suffer a tax disadvantage in relation to his Awards (this being shown to the satisfaction of the
Directors); or



 





 



1 This provision is amended
with effect from 1 Jaunary 2013. For Awards granted prior to this date, please see previous version of the Plan.


 






    	7



    	 



    

 


		5.4.2	become subject to restrictions on his ability to exercise his Awards or to hold or deal in the
Shares or the proceeds of the sale of the Shares acquired on exercise because of the security laws or exchange control laws of
the country to which he is transferred,



 


then the Directors may decide that
his Awards will Vest on a date they choose before or after the transfer takes effect. The Award will Vest to the extent they permit
and the Directors will decide whether any balance of the Award will lapse.


 


		5.5	Meaning of “ceasing to be an Employee”



 


For the purposes of rules 5 (Vesting
in other circumstances - personal events) and 4.2 (Options), a Participant will not be treated as ceasing to be an Employee until
he is no longer an Employee of any Member of the Group or if he recommences employment with a Member of the Group within 14 days
or such other period and on such other basis as the Directors decide.


 


		6	Vesting in other circumstances - corporate events



 


		6.1	Time of Vesting



 


		6.1.1	In the event of a Change of Control, an Award Vests subject to rules 6.1.2 and 6.3 (Exchange).
The Award lapses as to the balance except to the extent exchanged under rule 6.3 (Exchange).



 


		6.1.2	If the Company is or may be affected by any demerger, delisting, distribution (other than an ordinary
dividend) or other transaction, which, in the opinion of the Directors, might affect the current or future value of any Award,
the Directors may allow an Award to Vest. The Award will Vest to the extent specified in rule 6.2 (Extent of Vesting) and will
lapse as to the balance unless exchanged under rule 6.3 (Exchange). The Directors may impose other conditions on Vesting.



 


		6.2	Extent of Vesting



 


		6.2.1	Where an Award vests under rule 6.1 (Time of Vesting), the Directors will determine the extent
to which any Performance Condition has been satisfied as at the date of Change of Control (as determined by the Directors in the
manner specified in the Performance Condition or in such manner as they consider reasonable) and the proportion of the Award which
will Vest.



 


		6.2.2	In addition, unless the Directors decide otherwise, the Award is reduced pro rata to reflect the
number of days from the start of the Performance Period until the date of the Change of Control as a proportion of the number of
days of the Performance Period.



 


		6.3	Exchange



 


An Award will not Vest under rule
6.1 (Time of Vesting) but will be exchanged under rule 6.6 (Exchange terms) to the extent that:


 


		6.3.1	an offer to exchange the Award is made and accepted by a Participant; or



 


		6.3.2	the Directors, with the consent of the Acquiring Company, decide before Change of Control that
the Award will be automatically exchanged.



 






    	8



    	 



    

 


		6.4	Directors



 


In this rule 6 (Vesting in other
circumstances - corporate events), “Directors” means those people who were members of the remuneration committee
of the Company immediately before the Change of Control.


 


		6.5	Timing of exchange



 


Where an Award is to be exchanged
under rule 6.3 (Exchange), the exchange is effective immediately following the relevant event.


 


		6.6	Exchange terms



 


Where a Participant is granted
a new award in exchange for an existing Award, the new Award:


 


		6.6.1	must confer a right to acquire shares in the Acquiring Company or another body corporate determined
by the Acquiring Company;



 


		6.6.2	must be equivalent to the existing Award, subject to rule 6.6.4;



 


		6.6.3	is treated as having been acquired at the same time as the existing Award and, subject to rule
6.6.4, Vests in the same manner and at the same time;



 


		6.6.4	must:



 


		(i)	be subject to a Performance Condition which is, so far as possible, equivalent to any Performance
Condition applying to the existing Award; or



 


		(ii)	not be subject to any Performance Condition but be in respect of the number of shares which is
equivalent to the number of Shares comprised in the existing Award which would have Vested under rule 6.2.1 and Vest at the end
of the original Performance Period; or



 


		(iii)	be subject to such other terms as the Directors consider appropriate in all the circumstances.



 


		6.6.5	is governed by the Plan, excluding rule 7.2 (Shareholder approval), as if references to Shares
were references to the shares over which the new award is granted and references to the Company were references to the Acquiring
Company or the body corporate determined under rule 6.6.1 above.



 


		7	Changing the Plan and termination



 


		7.1	Directors’ powers



 


Except as described in the rest
of this rule 7 (Changing the Plan and termination), the Directors may at any time change the Plan in any way.


 


		7.2	Shareholder approval



 


		7.2.1	Except as described in rule 7.2.2, the Company in general meeting must approve in advance by ordinary
resolution any proposed change to the Plan to the advantage of present or future Participants, which relates to:



 


		(i)	the Participants;



 


		(ii)	the limits on the number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan;



 






    	9



    	 



    

 


		(iii)	the individual limit for each Participant under the Plan;



 


		(iv)	the basis for determining a Participant's entitlement to, and the terms of, securities, cash or
other benefit to be provided and for the adjustment thereof (if any) if there is a capitalisation issue, rights issue or open offer,
sub-division or consolidation of shares or reduction of capital or any other variation of capital; or



 


		(v)	the terms of this rule 7.2.1.



 


		7.2.2	The Directors can change the Plan and need not obtain the approval of the Company in general meeting
for any minor changes:



 


		(i)	to benefit the administration of the Plan;



 


		(ii)	to comply with or take account of the provisions of any proposed or existing legislation;



 


		(iii)	to take account of any changes to legislation; or



 


		(iv)	to obtain or maintain favourable tax, exchange control or regulatory treatment of the Company,
any Subsidiary or any present or future Participant.



 


		7.2.3	The Directors may, without obtaining the approval of the Company in general meeting, establish
further plans based on the Plan but modified to take account of local tax, exchange control or securities laws in non-UK territories.



 


		7.3	Notice



 


The Directors are not required
to give Participants notice of any changes.


 


		7.4	Termination



 


The Plan will terminate on the
Expiry Date, but the Directors may terminate the Plan at any time before that date. The termination of the Plan will not affect
existing Awards.


 


		8	General



 


		8.1	Terms of employment



 


		8.1.1	This rule 8.1 (Terms of employment) applies during an Employee’s employment and after the
termination of an Employee’s employment, whether or not the termination is lawful.



 


		8.1.2	Nothing in the rules or the operation of the Plan forms part of the contract of employment of an
Employee. The rights and obligations arising from the employment relationship between the Employee and his employer are separate
from, and are not affected by, the Plan. Participation in the Plan does not create any right to, or expectation of, continued employment.



 


		8.1.3	No Employee has a right to participate in the Plan. Participation in the Plan or the grant of Awards
on a particular basis in any year does not create any right to or expectation of participation in the Plan or the grant of Awards
on the same basis, or at all, in any future year.



 






    	10



    	 



    

 


		8.1.4	The terms of the Plan do not entitle the Employee to the exercise of any discretion in his favour.



 


		8.1.5	The Employee will have no claim or right of action in respect of any decision, omission or discretion,
which may operate to the disadvantage of the Employee even if it is unreasonable, irrational or might otherwise be regarded as
being in breach of the duty of trust and confidence (and/or any other implied duty) between the Employee and his employer.



 


		8.1.6	No Employee has any right to compensation for any loss in relation to the Plan, including any loss
in relation to:



 


		(i)	any loss or reduction of rights or expectations under the Plan in any circumstances (including
lawful or unlawful termination of employment);



 


		(ii)	any exercise of a discretion or a decision taken in relation to an Award or to the Plan, or any
failure to exercise a discretion or take a decision;



 


		(iii)	the operation, suspension, termination or amendment of the Plan.



 


		8.2	Directors’ decisions final and binding



 


The decision of the Directors on
the interpretation of the Plan or in any dispute relating to an Award or matter relating to the Plan will be final and conclusive.


 


		8.3	Third party rights



 


Nothing in this Plan confers any
benefit, right or expectation on a person who is not a Participant. No such third party has any rights under the Contracts (Rights
of Third Parties) Act 1999, or any equivalent local legislation, to enforce any term of this Plan. This does not affect any other
right or remedy of a third party which may exist.


 


		8.4	Documents sent to shareholders



 


The Company is not required to
send to Participants copies of any documents or notices normally sent to the holders of its Shares.


 


		8.5	Costs

Schedule 4

USA


 


The purpose of the Schedule 4 is to make
certain variations of the terms of the Plan in the case of its operation for Employees who are subject to taxation under the laws
of the United States of America (“US Tax”).


 


The rules of the Plan apply to grants made
under this Schedule 4, subject to the following:


 


		1	Application of Schedule 4



 


This Schedule 4 applies to any
Participant who is subject to US Tax. It is intended to ensure that a Conditional Award granted to a Participant who is subject
to US Tax is exempt from section 409A of the US Internal Revenue Code 1986, as amended.


 


The words and expressions used
in this Schedule 4 which have capital letters have the same meaning as they have in the rules of the Plan.


 


		2	Amendments to the Plan for section 409A purposes 



 


For the purpose of Conditional
Awards subject to this Schedule 4, all of the rules of the Plan shall apply subject to the following amendment:


 


Rule 5.3 (Vesting) is deleted and
replaced by the following:


 


“Rule 5.3 Vesting


 


Where rule 5.2 (“Good Leavers”)
applies, the Award does not lapse, and the extent to which it will Vest is measured in accordance with rule 3.1 (Determination
of Performance Condition) at the end of the Performance Period. The Award will Vest once the determination of the Performance Condition
is made under rule 3.1 or as soon as practicable thereafter, but in no event shall Shares underlying the Award be transferred to
the Participant later than 15 March of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Performance Period ends.


 


However, the Performance Period
in respect of an Award will be treated as ending on the date of the termination of employment, and the Award will Vest immediately,
to the extent that the Performance Condition has been or is likely to be satisfied (as determined by the Directors in the manner
specified in the Performance Condition or in such manner as they consider reasonable) where a Participant has died or where the
Directors so decide on the grant of the Award.


 


Unless the Directors decide otherwise,
the Award should be reduced pro rata to reflect the number of days from the start of the Performance Period until cessation of
the Participant’s employment as a proportion of the number of days of the Performance Period.”
