	3.1	The Board may from time to time in its absolute discretion grant Awards to such Eligible Employees as it shall in its absolute discretion select. No Eligible Employee
shall be entitled as of right to have an Award granted to him. The extent of any grant of Awards shall be determined by the Board in its absolute discretion but shall be subject to the limits contained in Rules 4 and 5. 

 

	3.2	An Award shall be designated as an Allocation or an Option. 

  

	3.3	No payment shall be required in consideration for the grant of an Award. The Board shall grant Awards by deed or in such form as the Board shall decide. A single deed

Condition(s) determined under Rule 3.4 below. 

  

	3.4	The Board may grant an Award subject to such Condition(s) as it in its discretion thinks fit which must (save as otherwise provided in the Rules) be fulfilled before
the Award (other than a new award under Rule 13.4) may be exercised or vest (as the case may be). No such Condition(s) may subsequently be varied or waived (save as otherwise provided in the Rules) unless an event occurs which causes the Board to
determine that such Condition(s) shall have ceased to be appropriate whereupon the Board may in its absolute discretion vary or waive such Condition(s) so that any new Condition(s) imposed or any variation are in its opinion fair, reasonable and no
more difficult to satisfy than the previous Condition(s). 

  
 6 

	3.5	Subject to Rules 3.6 and 3.7 below, an Award may only be granted at the following times: 

 

	 	(a)	within the period of 42 days after the Commencement Date; or 

  

	 	(b)	within the period of 42 days after an Announcement Date; or 

  

	 	(c)	at any time at which the Board resolves that exceptional circumstances exist which justify the grant of an Award. 

 

	3.6	No Award may be granted at any time at which a dealing in the Shares would not be permitted under the Model Code. 

 

	3.7	No Award may be granted under the Scheme later than ten years after the Commencement Date.

	4.	SCHEME LIMITS 

  

	4.1	Subject to such adjustments as may be made in accordance with Rule 12, no Award shall be granted on any Date of Grant or any proposed Date of Grant if, as a result:

  

	 	(a)	the aggregate number of Shares issued or committed to be issued pursuant to Awards made under the Scheme would exceed five per cent. of the issued ordinary share
capital of the Company on that Date of Grant; or 

  

	 	(b)	the aggregate number of Shares issued or committed to be issued pursuant to Awards made under the Scheme and pursuant to grants or appropriations made during the ten
years preceding such Date of Grant under all other Employees’ Share Schemes established by the Company would exceed ten per cent. of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company on that Date of Grant. 

 

	4.2	For the avoidance of doubt, Shares which have been the subject of Awards or of rights granted under any other Employees’ Share Scheme which have lapsed shall not
be taken into account for the purposes of this Rule 4. 

  

	4.3	For the purposes of the limits contained in Rule 4.1, the references to Shares issued or committed to be issued shall include Shares transferred from treasury or
committed to be so transferred unless institutional investor guidelines cease to require such Shares to be so counted. 

  

	5.	INDIVIDUAL LIMIT 

  

	5.1	No Award may be granted to an Eligible Employee at any time if, as a result, the aggregate Market Value of the Shares subject to that Award together with the aggregate
Market Value of Shares committed to be issued or transferred pursuant to any other Award granted to him in the same Financial Period of the Company under the Scheme, would exceed a sum equal to twice his Base Salary or, if higher, such fixed number
of Shares as is determined by the Board on or prior to the Date of Grant. 

  

	5.2	If any Award exceeds the appropriate limit determined in accordance with Rule 5.1 above, such grant shall be void ab initio to the extent that the limit is exceeded.

  

	5.3	For the purpose of this Rule 5, the Market Value of a Share subject to an Award shall be calculated as at the Date of Grant of that Award. 

 

	5.4	For the purpose of the limit contained in Rule 5.1, the reference to Shares committed to be issued shall include Shares committed to be transferred from treasury.

  
 7 

	6.	NON-ASSIGNABILITY OF AWARDS 

 An Award may not be transferred, charged, pledged, mortgaged or encumbered in any way whatsoever by a Participant or his personal representative(s). In the event of any breach or purported breach of this
Rule, an Award shall lapse forthwith. This Rule 6 shall not prevent the personal representative(s) of a deceased Participant from exercising an Option or from receiving Shares pursuant to a vested Allocation in accordance with the Rules or the law
of succession. 
  

	7.	EXERCISE PRICE OF AN OPTION 

 The Exercise Price of an Option shall be determined by the Board not later than the Date of Grant and shall be such an amount (whether expressed as an amount per Share subject to the Option or an amount
payable on each exercise of an Option irrespective of the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised) as the Board may in its absolute discretion determine provided that, in the case only of an Option to subscribe for Shares, the
Exercise Price per Share shall not be less than the nominal value of a Share (or, in the case of an Option granted to a US Employee, the fair market value of a Share on the date the Option is granted).

	 	(a)	a Subsisting Option shall be exercisable during the Option Period; and

 provided in each case that any Condition(s) shall have been fulfilled or waived. 
  

	8.2	Subject to Rule 11, if a Participant ceases to hold Employment before the expiry of the Performance Period by reason of death, Disability or Good Reason, or the Company
terminates the Participant’s Employment without Cause, the following provisions shall apply: 

  

	 	(i)	a Subsisting Option shall become exercisable, subject to paragraph (iii) below, on the commencement of the Option Period and may be exercised within the period of
twelve months from that date; 

  

	 	(ii)	a Subsisting Allocation shall vest, subject to paragraph (iv) below, on the Vesting Date; 

 

	 	(iii)	a Subsisting Option shall be exercisable in respect of such number of Shares as is equal to “A” where: 

 

					
	  A	 	=	  	X PA where:
		 		  	Y

ceased to hold Employment plus 365; and 
 Y is the total number of days which would have been comprised in the Performance
Period had the Participant not ceased to be in Employment; 

  
 8 

 PROVIDED THAT, X/Y shall equal a maximum of one. 

 

	 	(iv)	a Subsisting Allocation shall vest in respect of such number of Shares as is equal to “A” where: 

A = X PA where: 
         y 
 A is the number of Shares in
respect of which the Allocation vests; 
 PA is the number of Shares in respect of which the Allocation would vest having
applied the Performance Condition(s) to the related Performance Period;

 Y is the total number of days

 PROVIDED
THAT, X/Y shall equal a maximum of one.

	 	(a)	any Subsisting Option may be exercised within the period of twelve months commencing on the later of: 

 

	 	(i)	the date on which the Option Period commences; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the date on which the Participant ceases to hold Employment; and 

  

	 	(b)	any Subsisting Allocation will vest on the Vesting Date. 

  

	9.	LAPSE

Award, whenever granted, shall lapse and cease to be capable of exercise or vesting upon the earliest to occur of the following:

lapse only to the extent of the unexercisable or unvested part; and

	10.3	An Option may be exercised in whole or in part. Following any exercise of an Option in part (other than an exercise which exhausts the Option), the Participant shall be
sent a new Award certificate in respect of the balance of Shares which are the subject of such Option. 

  

	10.4	Unless otherwise provided in these Rules, no Award shall be treated as having been exercised or vested unless and until the Board is satisfied that any Condition(s)
have been satisfied or partially satisfied in accordance with their terms or have been waived. 

  

	10.5	Subject to the obtaining of any necessary consents from H.M. Treasury, the Bank of England or other competent authority and to the terms of any such consent and subject
to Rule 10.4, the Board shall: 

  

	 	(a)	subject to Rules 10.5(b) and (c) below, within 30 days of the vesting of an Allocation or exercise of an Option cause the Company to allot and issue or procure the
transfer of the relevant Shares; 

  
 10 

	 	(b)	by 15 March immediately following the calendar year in which an Allocation held by a US Employee vests, cause the Company to allot and issue or procure the
transfer of the relevant Shares; and 

  

	 	(c)	delay the allotment and issue or transfer of the relevant Shares in respect of an Allocation held by a US Employee which vests pursuant to Rule 8.2 for a period of six
months following the cessation of the Participant’s employment (or, if earlier until the Participant’s death) if, and to the extent that, such delay is required in order to comply with Section 409A of the US Internal Revenue Code,

 and send or cause to be sent to the Participant a share certificate (or other evidence of title) for the Shares
in respect of which the Award is exercised or has vested.

	 	(b)	to reduce the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant by an amount equal in value to the amount of the Award Tax Liability or sell a sufficient number

	 	(c)	to deduct the amount of the Award Tax Liability from cash payments otherwise to be made to the Participant. 

The Board may make such arrangements and determinations in this regard, consistent with the Rules, as it may in its absolute discretion
consider to be appropriate.

period as the Board shall determine may be substituted.

capital referred to above, no Shares have been allotted or transferred pursuant to such exercise or vesting, the number of Shares which may be so allotted or transferred and the price at which they may be acquired, may be adjusted by the Board in
such manner and with effect from such date as the Board may determine to be appropriate.

	 	(b)	the Board shall resolve to capitalise and apply such sum on exercise of that Option. 

 

	12.3	The Board shall notify Participants in such manner as it thinks fit of any adjustment made under Rule 12.1 and may call in, cancel, endorse, issue or re-issue any award

wrongful or unfair dismissal) or for any other reason whatsoever to compensate him for the loss of any rights the Participant would otherwise have had (actual or prospective) under the Scheme howsoever arising but for such termination; and

  

	 	(c)	the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived any such rights to which he may otherwise have been entitled.

if any, doubt) is entirely within the discretion of the Board.

in its discretion, may postpone the granting and exercise or vesting of Awards, the issuance or delivery of Shares under any Award or any other action permitted under the Scheme to permit the Company, with reasonable diligence, to complete such
stock exchange listing or registration or qualification of such Shares or other required action under any national or local law, rule, or regulation and may require any Participant to make such representations and furnish such information as it may
consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of Shares in compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations. The Company shall not be obliged by virtue of any provision of the Scheme to recognise the exercise or vesting of
any Award or to otherwise sell or issue Shares in violation of any such laws, rules, or regulations; and any postponement of the exercise or vesting and settlement of any Award under this provision shall not extend the term of such Award, and
neither the Company nor its directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability to the Participant with respect to any Award (or Shares issuable or transferable thereunder) that shall lapse because of such postponement.

party and including transfer to countries outside the European Economic Area) of his Personal Data by any Member of the Group, any of their Associated Companies, the trustees of any employee benefit trust, any administrator of the Scheme or the
Company’s registrars or brokers for the purposes of implementing and operating the Scheme. 

  

	16.	EXCLUSION OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS 

  

	    	The Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 shall not apply to this Scheme nor to any Award granted under it and no person other than the parties to an
Award shall have any rights under it nor shall it be enforceable under that Act by any person other than the parties to it. 

  

	17.	TERMINATION 

  

	    	The Board or the Company in general meeting may resolve at any time that no Awards or further Awards shall be granted under the Scheme and in any event no Awards may be
granted under the Scheme on or after the tenth anniversary of the Commencement Date provided that this Rule shall not affect the subsisting rights of Participants.

shall be the first day following such date on which the vesting of the Shares is permitted under the Model Code. 
 Where the
context so admits the singular shall include the plural and vice versa and the masculine gender shall include the feminine. Any reference to a statutory provision shall be a reference to a UK statutory provision, unless indicated otherwise, and any
reference to a statutory provision is to be construed as a reference to that provision as for the time being amended or re-enacted and shall include any regulations or other subordinate legislation made under it. 

 

	2.	COMMENCEMENT AND TITLE 

The Plan shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall be known as The Randgold Resources Limited Co-Investment Plan. 

 

	3.	GRANT OF AWARDS 

  

	3.1	Subject to Rule 4, the Board may from time to time in its absolute discretion grant Awards to such Eligible Employees as it shall in its absolute discretion select
provided such Eligible Employees have agreed to retain Investment Shares under Rule 4. No Eligible Employee shall be entitled as of right to have an Award granted to him. 

 

	3.2	The number of Shares over which an Award shall be granted shall not exceed such number of Shares as is equal to the number of Investment Shares which a Participant has
agreed to retain under Rule 4. 

  

	3.3	An Award shall be designated as an Allocation or an Option. 

  

	3.4	On or prior to the grant of an Award the Board shall determine the following in relation to such Award: 

 

	 	(a)	the maximum number of Shares which are the subject of such Award; 

  

	 	(b)	the Exercise Price (where relevant); 

  

	 	(c)	the Performance Period to apply to such Award; 

  

	 	(d)	the Performance Condition to be satisfied in respect of the Performance Period; 

 

	 	(e)	subject to Rules 10, 11 and 13, the Vesting Date of such Award; and 

  

	 	(f)	any other Condition(s) applying to such Award. 

  

	3.5	Subject to Rules 3.6 and 3.7 below, an Award may only be granted at the following times: 

 

	 	(a)	within the period of 42 days after the Commencement Date; or 

  

	 	(b)	within the period of 42 days after an Announcement Date; or 

  
 5 

	 	(c)	at any time at which the Board resolves that exceptional circumstances exist which justify the grant of an Award. 

 

	3.6	No Award may be granted at any time at which a dealing in the Shares would not be permitted under the Model Code. 

 

	3.7	No Award may be granted under the Plan later than ten years after the Commencement Date. 

 

	3.8	No payment shall be required in consideration for the grant of an Award. The Board shall grant Awards by deed or in such form as the Board shall decide. A single deed
of grant may be executed in favour of any number of Participants. Each Participant shall on, or as soon as possible after, the Date of Grant be issued with a certificate evidencing the grant of the Award and setting out its terms as specified in
Rule 3.4 above and any Condition(s) determined under Rule 3.9 below. 

  

	3.9	The Board may grant an Award subject to such Condition(s) (in addition to the Performance Condition) as it in its discretion thinks fit which must (save as otherwise
provided in the Rules) be fulfilled before the Award (other than a new award under Rule 13.3) may be exercised or vest (as the case may be). No such Condition(s) may subsequently be varied or waived (save as otherwise provided in the Rules) unless
circumstances occur which cause the Board to determine that such Condition(s) shall have ceased to be appropriate whereupon the Board may in its absolute discretion vary or waive such Condition(s) so that any new Condition(s) imposed or any
variation are in its opinion fair, reasonable and no more difficult to satisfy than the previous Condition(s). 

  

	3.10	Subject to Rule 6 below, an Eligible Employee may be granted any combination of Awards, whether in a single grant or pursuant to a series of grants.

  

	3.11	For the avoidance of doubt, where or to the extent that a Performance Condition has not been satisfied in respect of the Performance Period determined by the Board on
the Date of Grant of an Award the Performance Period may not be extended. 

  

	3.12	A Participant may within one month following the Date of Grant thereof renounce, release or surrender an Award by notice in writing to the Company. The renunciation
shall be effective from the date of receipt of such notice by the Company upon which date the relevant Award shall be deemed never have to have been granted. 

 

	4.	INVESTMENT SHARES 

  

	4.1	An Award may only be granted to an Eligible Employee who has agreed to retain Investment Shares under this Rule 4 and, where the Board has so determined under the
Annual Bonus Plan, such Eligible Employee has acquired Investment Shares using his Deferred Bonus Amount. 

  

	4.2	The Board may invite an Eligible Employee who is to be granted an Award to: 

 

	 	(a)	apply monies (and where required to do so using any Deferred Bonus Amount) in the acquisition of Investment Shares and the payment of associated expenses, subject to
the Company’s share dealing code, the Model Code and any relevant UK or overseas regulation or enactment; or 

  

	 	(b)	otherwise agree to retain Investment Shares. 

 An Eligible Employee must agree to retain the Investment Shares relating to an Award until the commencement of the Option Period or until the Vesting Date as appropriate. 

 

	4.3	 The Market Value of the Investment Shares a Participant agrees to retain pursuant to Rule 4.2 shall not in aggregate exceed such percentage of a
Participant’s Basic Salary as the Board 

  
 6 

 
may determine on or before the making of an invitation under Rule 4.2, such percentage not to exceed 200 per cent., or, where the Board determines that exceptional circumstances exist,
300 per cent. 
  

	4.4	Investment Shares shall be held: 

  

	 	(a)	on the Participant’s behalf by a nominee as chosen from time to time by the Board; or 

 

	 	(b)	in such other manner as the Board may determine that will enable it to determine ownership of the Investment Shares. 

 

	5.	DIVIDEND ACCRUAL PAYMENT 

  

	5.1	The Board may in its absolute discretion determine, on or before the grant of an Award, that the grant of such an Award shall also give the Participant a right to
receive a Dividend Accrual Payment on the exercise or vesting of that Award. 

  

	5.2	The Dividend Accrual Payment may be paid, at the absolute discretion of the Board: 

 

	 	(a)	in cash, subject to any deductions made in accordance with Rule 5.3 below, as soon as reasonably practicable after the exercise or vesting of the Award; and/or

  

	 	(b)	in whole or in part by the issue or transfer to the Participant (or his nominee) of that number of Shares which could be subscribed or purchased using the cash amount
(or part thereof) of the Dividend Accrual Payment at a price equal to the Market Value of the Shares on the date of payment, in which case the provisions of Rule 11.6 shall apply to the issue or transfer of those Shares. 

 

	5.3	Such deductions on account of the Award Tax Liability as may be required by law or as the Board may consider necessary or desirable shall be made from any cash payment
under Rule 5.2(a). 

  

	5.4	The Board may make any arrangements it considers necessary or desirable for the purposes of recovering any Award Tax Liability arising on the delivery of Shares under
Rule 5.2(b) which may include requiring the Participant to remit amounts sufficient to satisfy such liability or selling (on behalf of the Participant) a sufficient number of the Shares so transferred or allotted to realise proceeds sufficient to
satisfy such liability. 

  

	6.	PLAN LIMITS 

  

	6.1	Subject to such adjustments as may be made in accordance with Rule 14, no Award shall be granted on any Date of Grant or any proposed Date of Grant if, as a result:

  

	 	(a)	the aggregate number of Shares issued or committed to be issued pursuant to Awards made after Admission under the Plan would exceed five per cent. of the issued
ordinary share capital of the Company on that Date of Grant; or 

  

	 	(b)	the aggregate number of Shares issued or committed to be issued pursuant to Awards made after Admission under the Plan and pursuant to grants or appropriations made
after Admission during the ten years preceding such Date of Grant under all Employees’ Share Schemes established by the Company would exceed ten per cent. of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company on that Date of Grant.

  

	6.2	For the avoidance of doubt: 

  

	 	(a)	Shares which have been the subject of Awards or of rights granted under any other Employees’ Share Scheme which have lapsed shall not be taken into account for the
purposes of this Rule 6; and 

  
 7 

	 	(b)	Shares issued for the purpose of a Dividend Accrual Payment shall count towards the limits contained in Rule 6.1. 

 

	6.3	For the purposes of the limits contained in Rule 6.1, the references to Shares issued or committed to be issued shall include Shares transferred from treasury or
committed to be so transferred unless the ABI Guidelines on Executive Remuneration cease to require such Shares to be counted. 

  

	7.	NON-ASSIGNABILITY OF AWARDS 

 An Award may not be transferred, charged, pledged, mortgaged, made subject to a security interest or encumbered in any way whatsoever by a Participant or his personal representative(s). In the event of
any breach or purported breach of this Rule, an Award shall lapse forthwith. This Rule 7 shall not prevent the personal representative(s) of a deceased Participant from exercising an Option or from receiving Shares pursuant to a vested Allocation in
accordance with the Rules or the law of succession. 
  

	8.	EXERCISE PRICE OF AN OPTION 

 The Exercise Price of an Option shall be determined by the Board not later than the Date of Grant and shall be such an amount (whether expressed as an amount per Share subject to the Option or an amount
payable on each exercise of an Option irrespective of the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised) as the Board may in its absolute discretion determine provided that, in the case only of an Option to subscribe for Shares, the
Exercise Price per Share shall not be less than the nominal value of a Share. 
  

	9.	EXERCISE OF OPTIONS AND VESTING OF ALLOCATIONS 

  

	9.1	Save as otherwise provided in the Rules and subject to Rule 11: 

  

	 	(a)	a Subsisting Option shall be exercisable during the Option Period; and 

  

	 	(b)	a Subsisting Allocation shall vest on the Vesting Date, 

 to the extent that any Condition(s) shall have been fulfilled or waived. 
  

	9.2	Subject to Rule 13, if a Participant ceases to hold Employment before the expiry of the Performance Period by reason of: 

 

	 	(a)	death; 

  

	 	(b)	injury, ill-health or disability proved to the satisfaction of the Board; 

  

	 	(c)	redundancy; 

  

	 	(d)	retirement; 

  

	 	(e)	the company employing the Participant ceasing to be a Member of the Group; 

 

	 	(f)	the business or part of the business to which the Participant’s office or employment relates being transferred to a person who is not a Member of the Group;

  

	 	(g)	any other reason (other than those set out in Rule 10.1(f)) and the Board in its absolute discretion so permits, 

  
 8 

 the following provisions shall apply: 

 

	 	(i)	the Performance Period shall be deemed to have ended on the date of cessation of Employment (which reduced period shall be referred to as the “Relevant
Period”); 

  

	 	(ii)	a Subsisting Option shall become exercisable on the later of: 

  

	 	(A)	the date on which the Board has determined the number of Shares in respect of which that Option is exercisable pursuant to paragraph (iv) below; and

  

	 	(B)	the date on which the Board determines that any other Conditions have been satisfied or waived; 

and may be exercised within the period of six months (or, in the case of Rule 9.2(a) only, 12 months) from that date; 

 

	 	(iii)	a Subsisting Allocation shall vest on the later of: 

  

	 	(A)	the date on which the Board has determined the number of Shares in respect of which that Allocation vests pursuant to paragraph (iv) below; and

  

	 	(B)	the date on which the Board determines that any other Condition(s) have been satisfied or waived; 

or, if such date falls at a time when the vesting of the Shares would not be permitted under the Model Code, on the first date following
such date on which the vesting of the Shares is permitted under the Model Code; and 
  

	 	(iv)	a Subsisting Option shall be exercisable, and a Subsisting Allocation shall vest, in respect of such number of Shares as is equal to “A” where:

  

					
	     A
	 	=	  	X PA (the “Formula”) where:
		 		  	Y

 A is the number of Shares in respect of which the Award may be exercised vests; 

PA is the number of Shares in respect of which the Award would be exercisable or vest if the Performance Condition were applied to the
Relevant Period or, where the Board deems it impracticable to apply the Performance Condition to the Relevant period, such other period as the Board shall determine; 
 X is the number of days comprised in the Relevant Period; and 
 Y is the total
number of days which would have been comprised in the Performance Period had the Participant not ceased to be in Employment. 
  

	9.3	If a Participant ceases to hold Employment on or after the expiry of the Performance Period for one of the reasons set out in Rules 9.2(a) to (f) inclusive:

  

	 	(a)	any Subsisting Option may be exercised within the period of six months (or, in the case of Rule 9.2(a) only, 12 months) commencing on the latest of:

  

	 	(i)	the date of cessation of Employment; 

  
 9 

	 	(ii)	the date on which it is determined that the Performance Condition has been satisfied, either in full or in part, in respect of the Performance Period; and

  

	 	(iii)	the date on which the Board determines that any other Condition(s) have been satisfied or waived; and 

 

	 	(b)	any Subsisting Allocation shall vest on the date which is the latest of the dates referred to in Rule 9.3 (a) (i), (ii) and (iii) or, if such date falls
at a time when the vesting of the Shares would not be permitted under the Model Code, on the first date following such date on which the vesting of the Shares is permitted under the Model Code. 

 

	10.	LAPSE 

  

	10.1	A Subsisting Award (or portion of a Subsisting Award where relevant), whenever granted, shall lapse and cease to be capable of exercise or vesting upon the earliest to
occur of the following: 

  

	 	(a)	in the case of an Option, the expiry of the Option Period; 

  

	 	(b)	the expiry of the Performance Period, if any Performance Condition(s) remain unfulfilled at that date and have not been waived, except that: 

 

	 	(i)	where Performance Condition(s) allow for an Award to be exercisable or vest in part on partial satisfaction of the Performance Condition(s), a Subsisting Award shall
lapse only to the extent of the unexercisable or unvested part; and 

  

	 	(ii)	a Subsisting Option which is exercisable pursuant to Rule 9.2 or Rule 13.1 by reference to the Relevant Period rather than the Performance Period shall not lapse on the
expiry of the original Performance Period to the extent that it is exercisable under either of those Rules; 

  

	 	(c)	the expiry of any period within which a Condition other than a Performance Condition has to be satisfied in accordance with its terms, if such Condition remains
unfulfilled at that date and has not been waived; 

  

	 	(d)	the date on which the provisions under Rule 4.4 of the Annual Bonus Plan are invoked by the Company in respect of such whole number of Shares which is nearest to the
number of Investment Shares acquired with a Participant’s Deferred Bonus Amount and clawed back under the Annual Bonus Plan expressed as a fraction of the total number of his Investment Shares (not exceeding 1); 

 

	 	(e)	in the case of a Subsisting Option, the expiry of any of the periods mentioned in Rules 9.2 and 9.3; 

 

	 	(f)	the date on which the Participant ceases to hold any Employment, or the date on which he gives or is given notice of such cessation for any reason other than those
referred to in Rule 9.2(a) to (f) inclusive and the Board has not determined that an Award may be exercised or vest under Rule 9.2(g) above; 

  

	 	(g)	the first to expire of any of the periods mentioned in Rule 13 below including for the avoidance of doubt the expiry of the period of one month specified in Rule 13.3
(subject to any agreement entered into pursuant to Rule 13.3); 

  

	 	(h)	the date upon which the Participant is adjudicated bankrupt or an analogous event occurs; 

 

	 	(i)	any breach or purported breach of Rule 7 by the Participant; and 

  
 10 

	 	(j)	any transfer or purported transfer by the Participant of any Investment Shares in respect of the corresponding number of Shares subject to an Award attributable to such
Investment Shares. 

  

	10.2	Where all or a portion of an Award lapses under Rule 10.1(d), the Participant shall cease to be beneficially entitled to the corresponding number of Investment Shares
and the Company shall require the Participant to transfer or procure the transfer of such Investment Shares to such person(s) as it may direct. 

  

	11.	MANNER OF EXERCISE OR VESTING 

  

	11.1	(a) a Subsisting Option shall be exercised by the Participant lodging with the Company Secretary at the Company’s registered office (or otherwise as may be
notified to Participants from time to time): 

  

	 	(i)	the certificate in respect of the Option to be exercised; 

  

	 	(ii)	a notice of exercise in such form as the Board may from time to time prescribe; and 

 

	 	(iii)	payment (in such manner as the Board shall direct) of the Exercise Price in respect of the Option; 

and the date of exercise shall be the date of receipt of such notice and payment or such other date as the Board may have specified in the
notice of exercise; and 
  

	 	(b)	a Subsisting Allocation shall vest automatically on the Vesting Date. 

  

	11.2	On the vesting of a Subsisting Allocation which is to be satisfied by the issue of new Shares, the Board may require the Participant to pay to the Company the aggregate
nominal value of the Shares to be issued in which case such Shares will not be issued pursuant to Rule 11.5 until such payment has been received by the Company. 

 

	11.3	An Option may be exercised in whole or in part, provided that any exercise of an Option (other than an exercise which exhausts the Option) shall be in respect of 100
Shares or an integral multiple thereof. Following any exercise of an Option in part (other than an exercise which exhausts the Option), the Participant shall be sent a new Award certificate in respect of the balance of Shares which are the subject
of such Option. 

  

	11.4	Unless otherwise provided in these Rules, no Award shall be treated as having been exercised or vested unless and until the Board is satisfied that any Condition(s)
have been satisfied or partially satisfied in accordance with their terms or have been waived. 

  

	11.5	Subject to the obtaining of any necessary consents and to the terms of any such consent and subject to Rule 11.4, the Board shall within 30 days of the vesting of an
Allocation or exercise of an Option cause the Company to allot and issue or procure the transfer of the relevant Shares and send or cause to be sent to the Participant a share certificate (or other evidence of title) for the Shares in respect of
which the Award is exercised or has vested. 

  

	11.6	Shares issued or transferred pursuant to the Plan will rank pari passu in all respects with Shares then already in issue except that they will not rank for any dividend
or other distribution of the Company paid or made by reference to a record date falling prior to the date of exercise or vesting of the relevant Award. 

  

	11.7	If and for so long as the Shares are Admitted, the Company shall as soon as practicable after any such allotment apply to the FSA and the London Stock Exchange for
permission for the same to be Admitted. Any application may be postponed at the Board’s discretion until application can be made in respect of such number of Shares as the Board considers appropriate. 

  
 11 

	11.8	The Company shall maintain sufficient unissued share capital to satisfy all rights to subscribe for Shares from time to time under Subsisting Awards.

  

	11.9	The Company and/or the Employing Company of a Participant and/or the Trustees shall have the right, prior to the delivery of the Shares otherwise deliverable to him on
the exercise or vesting of an Award: 

  

	 	(a)	to require the Participant to remit to or at the direction of his Employing Company an amount sufficient to satisfy the Award Tax Liability; and/or

  

	 	(b)	to reduce the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant by an amount equal in value to the amount of the Award Tax Liability or sell a sufficient number
of the Shares on behalf of the Participant to realise sale proceeds equivalent to the Award Tax Liability and remit such amount to or at the direction of his Employing Company or the Trustees in satisfaction of the liability; and/or

  

	 	(c)	to deduct the amount of the Award Tax Liability from cash payments otherwise to be made to the Participant. 

The Board may make such arrangements and determinations in this regard, consistent with the Rules, as it may in its absolute discretion
consider to be appropriate. 
  

	12.	CASH ALTERNATIVE 

  

	12.1	Where an Option has been exercised or an Allocation has vested and Shares have not yet been allotted or transferred to the Participant, the Board may determine that,
instead of allotting or transferring all or some of the Shares to which the Participant is then entitled, it shall pay to the Participant an amount in cash (the “Cash Alternative”) equal to: 

 

	 	(a)	in the case of an Allocation, the Market Value of the relevant number of Shares on the date of vesting; and 

 

	 	(b)	in the case of an Option, the aggregate Market Value of the relevant number of Shares on the date of exercise less the aggregate Option Price payable in respect of
those Shares. 

  

	12.2	The Cash Alternative, less the amount of any Award Tax Liability, shall be paid to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable after the Board has determined to
make such a payment and shall be in full and final satisfaction of the Participant’s right to acquire the corresponding number of Shares. 

  

	12.3	If the Participant has paid any amount by way of the Exercise Price of an Option or the subscription price for any Shares subject to an Allocation and the Board
determines to pay a Cash Alternative, any such sum shall be reimbursed to the Participant. 

  

	13.	RECONSTRUCTION, TAKEOVER OR LIQUIDATION 

  

	13.1	Subject to Rule 13.4, if a Specified Event occurs before the expiry of the Performance Period, Participants shall be notified and the following provisions shall apply:

  

	 	(a)	the Performance Period shall be deemed to have ended on the date of the Specified Event (which reduced period shall be referred to as the “Relevant
Period”); 

  
 12 

	 	(b)	the Board shall determine immediately prior to the date of the Specified Event: 

 

	 	(i)	the number of Shares in respect of which a Subsisting Option is exercisable or a Subsisting Allocation shall vest pursuant to paragraph (e) below; and

  

	 	(ii)	whether any other Condition(s) have been satisfied or waived; 

  

	 	(c)	if any other Condition(s) have been satisfied or waived, a Subsisting Option shall become exercisable immediately following the Specified Event and may be exercised
until the earlier of: 

  

	 	(i)	the expiry of the period of six months commencing on the date of the Specified Event; and 

 

	 	(ii)	the expiry of any period during which any person is bound or entitled to acquire Shares under the Compulsory Acquisition Provisions; 

in respect of the number of Shares determined under paragraph (b)(i) above; 

 

	 	(d)	if any other Condition(s) have been satisfied or waived, a Subsisting Allocation shall vest: 

 

	 	(i)	immediately following the Specified Event; or 

  

	 	(ii)	if the date of vesting under paragraph (i) above falls at a time when the vesting of the Shares would not be permitted under the Model Code, on the first date
following such date on which the vesting of the Shares is permitted under the Model Code; 

 in respect of the
number of Shares determined under paragraph (b)(i) above; and 
  

	 	(e)	a Subsisting Option shall be exercisable, and a Subsisting Allocation shall vest, in respect of: 

 

	 	(i)	such number of Shares as is equal to “A” where the Formula is applied but the variable “Y” is construed as meaning the total number of days which
would have been comprised in the Performance Period had there not been a Specified Event; or 

  

	 	(ii)	where the Board, acting fairly and reasonably, determines that the number of Shares as is equal to “A” (as revised as set out in paragraph (e)(i) above) would
be inappropriate in any particular case, such higher number of Shares as it determines provided that number does not exceed the total number of Shares subject to that Option or Allocation. 

 

	13.2	Subject to Rule 13.4, if a Specified Event occurs on or after the expiry of the Performance Period, Participants shall be notified and the following provisions shall
apply: 

  

	 	(a)	the Board shall, if it has not already done so, determine immediately prior to the Specified Event: 

 

	 	(i)	whether the Performance Condition has been satisfied, in full or in part, in respect of the Performance Period and the number of Shares in respect of which a Subsisting
Option is exercisable or a Subsisting Allocation shall vest; and 

  

	 	(ii)	whether any other Condition(s) have been satisfied or waived; 

  
 13 

	 	(b)	if any other Condition(s) have been satisfied or waived, a Subsisting Option shall become exercisable immediately following the Specified Event and may be exercised
until the earlier of: 

  

	 	(i)	the expiry of the period of six months commencing on the date of the Specified Event; and 

 

	 	(ii)	the expiry of any period during which any person is bound or entitled to acquire Shares under the Compulsory Acquisition Provisions; 

in respect of the number of Shares determined by the Board; 

 

	 	(c)	if any other Condition(s) have been satisfied or waived, a Subsisting Allocation shall vest: 

 

	 	(i)	immediately following the Specified Event or 

  

	 	(ii)	if the date of vesting under paragraph (i) above falls at a time when the vesting of the Shares would not be permitted under the Model Code, on the first date
following such date on which the vesting of the Shares is permitted under the Model Code; 

 in respect of the
number of Shares determined by the Board. 
  

	13.3	If a company has obtained Control of the Company or has become bound or entitled to acquire Shares as a result of a Specified Event, any Participant may, by agreement
with that other company (the “Acquiring Company”), within the period of one month from the date of the Specified Event release any of his Subsisting Awards in consideration of the grant of a new award on such terms as are agreed
with the Acquiring Company. 

  

	13.4	Rules 13.1 and 13.2 shall not apply in the case of an Internal Reorganisation, unless the Acquiring Company fails to make an offer to Participants to release Subsisting
Awards in accordance with Rule 13.3 within one week of obtaining Control or becoming bound or entitled to acquire Shares or the Court’s sanction, in which case Rule 13.1 or Rule 13.2 shall apply as if the Specified Event had occurred on the day
following the end of the period of one week mentioned above. 

  

	13.5	For the purposes of this Rule 13, other than Rule 13.3 above, a person shall be deemed to have obtained Control of the Company if he and others acting in concert with
him have together obtained Control of it. 

  

	13.6	The vesting of an Allocation or exercise of an Option pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Rule 13 shall be subject to the provisions of Rule 11.

  

	14.	CAPITAL REORGANISATION 

  

	14.1	In the event of: 

  

	 	(a)	any variation in the ordinary share capital of the Company by way of capitalisation of profits or reserves or by way of rights or any consolidation or sub-division or
reduction of capital or otherwise; or 

  

	 	(b)	any demerger, dividend in specie or super dividend; or 

  

	 	(c)	any other corporate event which in the reasonable opinion of the Board justifies such an adjustment; 

then the number and the nominal value of Shares subject to any Subsisting Awards, the Exercise Price and, where an Award has been
exercised or has vested but, as at the date of the variation of capital referred to above, no Shares have been allotted or transferred pursuant to such exercise or vesting, the number of Shares which may be so allotted or transferred and the price
at which they may be acquired, may be adjusted by the Board in such manner and with effect from such date as the Board may determine to be appropriate. 

  
 14 

	14.2	No adjustment under Rule 14.1 shall be made which would reduce the Exercise Price of any Option to subscribe for Shares below the nominal value of a Share unless and to
the extent that: 

  

	 	(a)	the Board is authorised to capitalise from the reserves of the Company a sum equal to the amount by which the nominal value of the Shares subject to the Option exceeds
the aggregate adjusted Exercise Price; and 

  

	 	(b)	the Board shall resolve to capitalise and apply such sum on exercise of that Option. 

 

	14.3	The Board shall notify Participants in such manner as it thinks fit of any adjustment made under Rule 14.1 and may call in, cancel, endorse, issue or re-issue any award
certificate as a result of any such adjustment. 

  

	15.	EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS 

  

	15.1	The Plan shall not form part of any contract of employment between any Member of the Group and any employee of any such company and the rights and obligations of any
Eligible Employee under the terms of his Employment with any Member of the Group shall not be affected by his participation in the Plan or any right which he may have to participate therein. 

 

	15.2	The grant of an Award to a Participant on one occasion is no indication that further Award(s) shall be granted to such Participant. 

 

	15.3	No Eligible Employee or Participant shall be entitled to any compensation for any loss which he may suffer as a result of the exercise by the Board, or its failure to
exercise, any of the discretions given to it by the Rules even if such exercise, or failure to exercise, constitutes a breach of contract or breach of duty by the Company or by any Member of the Group by whom the Eligible Employee or Participant is
employed or gives rise to any other claim whatsoever. 

  

	15.4	Neither participation in the Plan nor the grant of an Award shall form any part of a Participant’s remuneration or count as his remuneration for any purpose or be
pensionable. 

  

	15.5	Participation in the Plan shall be on the express condition that: 

  

	 	(a)	neither it nor cessation of participation shall afford any Eligible Employee under the terms of his Employment with any Member of the Group any additional or other
rights to compensation or damages; and 

  

	 	(b)	no damages or compensation shall be payable in consequence of the termination of such Employment (whether or not in circumstances giving rise to a claim for wrongful or
unfair dismissal) or for any other reason whatsoever to compensate him for the loss of any rights the Participant would otherwise have had (actual or prospective) under the Plan howsoever arising but for such termination; and

  

	 	(c)	the Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived any such rights to which he may otherwise have been entitled. 

 

	15.6	No individual shall have any claim against a Member of the Group arising out of his not being admitted to participation in the Plan which (for the avoidance of all, if
any, doubt) is entirely within the discretion of the Board. 

  

	15.7	 No Participant shall be entitled to claim compensation from any Member of the Group in respect of any sums paid by him pursuant to the Plan or for any
diminution or extinction of his rights or benefits (actual or otherwise) under any Award held by him consequent upon the 

  
 15 

	 	
lapse for any reason of any Award held by him or otherwise in connection with the Plan and each Member of the Group shall be entirely free to conduct its affairs as it sees fit without regard to
any consequences under, upon or in relation to the Plan or any Award or Participant. 

  

	15.8	By accepting the grant of an Award, a Participant is deemed to have agreed to the provisions of this Rule 15. 

 

	16.	ADMINISTRATION AND AMENDMENT 

  

	16.1	The Plan shall be administered under the direction of the Board which may at any time and from time to time by resolution and without other formality delete, amend or
add to the Rules of the Plan in any respect provided that: 

  

	 	(a)	no deletion, amendment or addition shall operate to affect adversely in any material way any rights already acquired by a Participant under the Plan without the
approval of the majority of the affected Participants first having been obtained; 

  

	 	(b)	no deletion, amendment or addition to the advantage of Participants may be made to any of the provisions of the Plan relating to: 

 

	 	(i)	eligibility; 

  

	 	(ii)	the limitations on the number or amount of Shares, cash or other benefits subject to the Plan; 

 

	 	(iii)	the maximum entitlement for any one Participant; 

  

	 	(iv)	the basis for determining a Participant’s entitlement to, and the terms of Shares, cash or other benefits to be provided under the Plan and for the adjustment
thereof (if any) in the event of a capitalisation issue, rights issue or open offer, sub-division or consolidation of Shares or reduction of capital or any other variation of capital; 

except with the prior approval of the Company in general meeting, unless the deletion, amendment or addition is minor and to benefit the
administration of the Plan, to obtain or maintain favourable tax, exchange control or regulatory treatment for Participants or any Member of the Group or to take into account existing or proposed legislation. 

 

	16.2	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in these Rules, the Board may at any time by resolution and without further formality establish further plans or
sub-plans to apply in overseas territories governed by rules similar to these Rules but modified to take account of local tax, exchange control or securities laws, regulation or practice provided that any Shares made available under any such scheme
shall be treated as counting against any limits on overall or individual participation in the Plan. 

  

	16.3	The Board may from time to time make and vary such rules and regulations not inconsistent with the Plan and establish such procedures for the administration and
implementation of this Plan as it thinks fit and in the event of any dispute or disagreement as to the interpretation of any such rules, regulations or procedures, the decision of the Board shall be final and binding upon all persons.

  

	16.4	 The Plan, the granting, exercise or vesting of Awards thereunder, and the other obligations of the Company under the Plan, shall be subject to all
applicable national or local laws, rules, and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required, and to any rules or regulations of any exchange or securities association on which the Shares are listed.
The Company, in its discretion, may postpone the granting and exercise or vesting of Awards, the issuance or delivery of Shares under any Award or any other action permitted under the Plan to permit the Company, with reasonable diligence, to
complete such 

  
 16 

 
stock exchange listing or registration or qualification of such Shares or other required action under any national or local law, rule, or regulation and may require any Participant to make such
representations and furnish such information as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of Shares in compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations. The Company shall not be obliged by virtue of any provision
of the Plan to recognise the exercise or vesting of any Award or to otherwise sell or issue Shares in violation of any such laws, rules, or regulations; and any postponement of the exercise or vesting and settlement of any Award under this provision
shall not extend the term of such Award, and neither the Company nor its directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability to the Participant with respect to any Award (or Shares issuable or transferable thereunder) that shall lapse
because of such postponement. 
  

	16.5	The Board’s decision on any matter relating to the interpretation of the Rules and any other matters concerning the Plan (including the rectification of errors or
mistakes of procedure or otherwise) shall be final and binding. 

  

	16.6	Any notice or other communication under or in connection with the Plan may be given: 

 

	 	(a)	by the Company to an Eligible Employee or Participant either personally or sent to him at his place of work by electronic mail or by post addressed to the address last
known to the Company (including any address supplied by the relevant Member of the Group) or sent through the Company’s internal postal service; and 

	 	

	 	(b)	to the Company, either personally or by post to the Company Secretary. 

 Items sent by post shall be pre-paid and shall be deemed to have been received 72 hours after posting. Items sent by electronic mail shall be deemed to have been received at the expiration of 24 hours
from when they were sent. 
  

	16.7	The Company shall bear the costs of setting up and administering the Plan. However, the Company may require any Member of the Group to reimburse the Company for any
costs borne by the Company directly or indirectly in respect of such Member of the Group’s officers or employees. 

  

	16.8	The Company shall maintain all necessary books of account and records relating to the Plan. 

 

	16.9	The Board shall be entitled to authorise any person to execute on behalf of a Participant, at the request of the Participant, any document relating to the Plan, in so
far as such document is required to be executed pursuant hereto. 

  

	16.10	The Company may send copies to Participants of any notice or document sent by the Company to the holders of Shares. 

 

	16.11	If any Award certificate shall be worn out, defaced or lost, it may be replaced on such evidence being provided as the Board may require. 

 

	16.12	In the case of the partial exercise of an Option, the Board may call in and endorse or cancel and re-issue as it thinks fit, any certificate for the balance of Shares
over which the Option was granted. 

  

	17.	DATA PROTECTION 

 As a
condition of the grant of an Award, a Participant consents to the collection, retention, use, processing and transfer (whether between themselves or to any third party and including transfer to countries outside the European Economic Area) of his
Personal Data by any Member of the Group, any of their Associated Companies, the trustees of any employee benefit trust, any administrator of the Plan or the Company’s registrars or brokers for the purposes of implementing and operating the
Plan. 

  
 17 

	18.	TERMINATION 

 The Board or
the Company in general meeting may resolve at any time that no Awards or further Awards shall be granted under the Plan and in any event no Awards may be granted under the Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of the Commencement Date provided that
this Rule shall not affect the subsisting rights of Participants. 
  

	19.	GOVERNING LAW

Rules shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Jersey law.
