ownership of stock of the corporation that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50 percent of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of such corporation. However, if any one person, or more
than one person acting as a group, is considered to own more than 50 percent of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of a corporation, the acquisition of additional stock by the same person or persons is not considered to
cause a change in the ownership of the corporation. An increase in the percentage of stock owned by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which the corporation acquires its stock in exchange for property will

|6 | Ceasing to be an Employee prior to the Vesting Date
|- | ---------------------------------------------------



|6.1 | If a Participant dies before the Vesting Date, the Company will as soon as practicable determine the number of Vested Shares relating to his
Awards, taking account of the proportion of the Performance Period that has elapsed, and the extent to which the Performance Condition has been satisfied. The Company will procure the transfer of the number of Vested Shares in a Conditional Award or
pay cash to the Participants personal representatives as soon as practicable and in the case of Awards subject to Section 409A, upon the 60thday following the Participants date of death or otherwise as permitted under Section 409A. An Option may be
exercised by the Participants personal representatives over the Vested Shares in the period of six months from the date of death, and will lapse if not exercised.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6.2 | If a Participants office or employment with any Group Company terminates before the Vesting Date for any of the reasons specified in (i) to
(vii) below, the number of Vested Shares relating to his Awards shall be the number determined under Rule 8 after the end of the Performance Period, reduced, to reflect the proportion of the Performance Period that had elapsed on the date of
termination. The reasons are:
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | ill-health, injury, disability;
| | --- | -------------------------------



| | (ii) | redundancy;
| | ---- | -----------



| | (iii) | retirement in accordance with the terms of a Participants contract of employment;
| | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iv) | early retirement by agreement with the Participants employer;
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------



| | (v) | the Participants employing company being transferred to a person which is not a Group Company;
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (vi) | a transfer of the undertaking, or part of the undertaking, in which the Participant works to a person which is not a Group Company; or
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (vii) | any other reason determined by the Company.
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------

The Company will procure the transfer of the Vested Shares in a Conditional Award or pay cash to the Participant on the Vesting Date or, for a Participant who is subject to taxation under the federal
income tax rules of the United States of America, between January 1 and March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Performance Period ends. An Option may be exercised by the Participant over the Vested Shares in
the period of six months from the Vesting Date, and will lapse if not exercised.



|6.3 | If a Participants office or employment with any Group Company terminates before the Vesting Date for any reason not included in Rule 6.2, he shall cease to
be a Participant in the Plan and shall not be eligible to receive any Shares or cash in respect of his Awards unless the Company decides otherwise within a reasonable time of the termination in which case the payment timing rules in Rule 6.2 shall
apply. If the termination is by reason of gross misconduct, he shall not be eligible to receive any Shares or cash in respect of any Awards in any circumstances.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



5



---

|6.4 | For the purposes of Rule 6, a Participants office or employment with a Group Company will not be treated as having terminated until the Participant ceases
to be employed by any Group Company and, where the Participant is made redundant or leaves by mutual agreement, until his contractual notice period or severance period has expired (whether or not this has been paid in lieu).
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6.5 | In the event of a Reconstruction or Takeover before the Vesting Date, the Company will as soon as practicable determine the number of Vested Shares or cash in
relation to all Awards, taking account of the proportion of the Performance Period that has elapsed, and the degree to which the Performance Condition has been satisfied. The Company will procure the immediate transfer to each Participant of the
Vested Shares in a Conditional Award or payment of the cash so determined; provided, for a Participant who is subject to taxation under the federal income tax rules of the United States of America, the transfer of Shares or payment of cash with
respect to an Award subject to Section 409A may be advanced only if the Reconstruction or Takeover constitutes a Change in Ownership under Section 409A in which case the transfer or payment, as applicable, shall be made upon the date of
the Reconstruction or Takeover. For a Participant who is subject to taxation under the federal income tax rules of the United States of America, such a Reconstruction or Takeover that is a Change in Ownership under Section 409A shall always
trigger an advancement in time of the transfer of Shares or payment of cash. An Option may be exercised by the Participant over the number of Vested Shares in the period of six months from the date of the Reconstruction or Takeover, and will lapse
if it has not been exercised. However, in the case of a Reconstruction or Takeover involving the exchange of Shares for shares in another company, or in more than one other company, the Committee may determine that no Shares or cash should be
transferred, and that instead the Participants right to the Shares comprised in an Award should be replaced by a right to the appropriate number of shares in that other company or companies; and for Participants who are subject to taxation
under the federal income tax rules of the United States of America and are subject to Section 409A any such replacement of Shares with shares in that other company or companies, if made, shall be made in a manner consistent with the
requirements of Section 409A.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6.6 | The Committee has discretion to take such action as it may think appropriate if other events happen which may have an effect on Awards; provided, for a
Participant who is subject to taxation under the federal income tax rules of the United States of America, no such action shall result in an advancement in time of the transfer of shares or payment of cash with respect to an Award subject to
Section 409A, unless otherwise permitted under Section 409A.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|7 | Clawback
|- | --------



|7.1 | Notwithstanding any other Rule of the Plan, if circumstances occur which, in the reasonable opinion of the Committee, justify a reduction in one or more Awards
granted to any one or more Participants, the Committee may in its discretion at any time prior to the Vesting Date determine (acting fairly and reasonably) that the cash amount payable under an Award or the number of Shares over which an Award is
granted shall be reduced to such amount or number (including to nil) as the Committee considers appropriate in the circumstances.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | ---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | a material adverse effect on the business opportunities and prospects for sustained performance or profitability of the Company, any Group Company or relevant business
unit (as appropriate);
| | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 7.2.2 | a material misstatement or restatement in the Companys or any Group Companys audited financial accounts (other than as a result of a change in
accounting practice).
| | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|7.3 | If the Committee decides to exercise its discretion under this Rule 7, it shall confirm this in writing to each affected Participant. For the purposes of these
Rules:
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 7.3.1 | the Award shall be deemed to have been granted over the reduced cash amount or reduced number of Shares (as the case may be); and
| | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 7.3.2 | any subsequent vesting of an Award shall be determined by reference to this reduced cash amount or reduced number of Shares,
| | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

save that if the cash amount or number of Shares is reduced to nil, the Award shall be treated as if it had never been granted and a
Participant (including a Participant who has left employment before the Vesting Date other than by reason of death) shall have no rights to any cash amount or Shares.



|7.4 | Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required to comply with applicable US law, stock exchange listing requirements, and/or any compensation recovery
policy adopted by the Committee in the future (whether before or after the grant of any Awards), the Committee may unilaterally amend Rule 7 and such amendment shall be binding on all affected Participants and their outstanding and future Awards;
provided, regardless of whether the Committee makes such a unilateral amendment, all Participants shall be bound by any compensation recovery policy adopted by the Company in the future (whether before or after the grant of any Awards).
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 8.1.2 | the number of Shares which Vest in respect of each Award, or the amount of cash to be awarded to each Participant.

Date.

discharge the liability.

or condition will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan or any Award document is not warranted or guaranteed.

|12.3 | Nothing in the Rules or the operation of the Plan forms part of the contract of employment or employment relationship of an Employee. The rights and obligations
of an Employee 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 or a continued employment relationship.

future year.
|---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12.5 | No Employee is entitled to participate in the Plan, or be considered for participation in it, at a particular level or at all. Participation in one operation of

the Performance Condition, no Employee has any rights in respect of the exercise or omission to exercise any discretion, or the making or omission to make any decision, relating to the Award. Any and all discretions, decisions or omissions relating
to the Award may operate to the disadvantage of the Employee, even if this could be regarded as capricious or unreasonable, or could be regarded as in breach of any implied term between the Employee and his employer, including any implied duty of
trust and confidence. Any such implied term is excluded and overridden by this Rule 12.

| | ------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------



|12.8 | Participation in the Plan is permitted only on the basis that the Participant accepts all the provisions of the Rules, including in particular this Rule 12. By
participating in the Plan, an Employee waives all rights under the Plan, other than the right to receive Shares subject to and in accordance with the express terms of the Rules and the Performance Condition, in consideration for, and as a condition
of, the grant of an Award under the Plan.
|---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12.9 | Nothing in this Plan confers any benefit, right or expectation on a person who is not an Employee. No such third party has any rights under the Contracts (Rights
of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this Plan. This does not affect any other right or remedy of a third party which may exist.
|---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12.10 | Each of the provisions of this Rule 12 is entirely separate and independent from each of the other provisions. If any provision is found to be invalid then it
will be deemed never to have been part of these Rules and to the extent that it is possible to do so, this will not affect the validity or enforceability of any of the remaining provisions.
