                                         executive, and the other executive directors, the Company secretary and such other members
                                         of the executive management as it is designated to consider. The remuneration of non-executive
                                         directors shall be a matter for the executive members of the Board. No director or manager
                                         shall be involved in any decisions as to their own remuneration;

 

		(b)	in determining such policy, take

                                         requirements, the provisions and recommendations of the UK Corporate Governance Code
                                         and associated guidance, and the NASDAQ stock market requirements. The objective of such
                                         policy shall be to ensure that members of the executive management of the Company are
                                         provided with appropriate incentives to encourage enhanced performance and are, in a
                                         fair and responsible manner, rewarded for their individual contributions to the success
                                         of the Company;

 

		(c)	when setting remuneration policy
                                         for directors, review and have regard to the remuneration trends across the Company or
                                         Group as a whole;

 

		(d)	review the ongoing appropriateness
                                         and relevance of the remuneration policy;

 

    	 	 	 

     

    

 

		(e)	within the terms of the agreed
                                         policy and in consultation with the chairman and/or chief executive, as appropriate,
                                         determine the total individual remuneration package of the chairman of the Board, each
                                         executive director, Company secretary and other designated senior executives including
                                         bonuses, incentive payments and restricted share awards or other share awards; and

 

		(f)	on an annual basis and within the
                                         context of paragraph 3.1(e) above, review corporate goals and objectives relevant to
                                         the chief executive’s compensation, evaluate the chief executive’s performance
                                         in light of those goals and objectives, and determine the chief executive’s compensation
                                         level based on this evaluation. In determining any long-term incentive component of the
                                         chief executive’s compensation, the Committee shall consider the Company’s
                                         performance and relative shareholder return, the value of similar incentive awards to
                                         chief executive officers at comparable companies, and the awards given to the Company’s
                                         chief executive in past years.

                                         with one or more of its operations. In these circumstances you agree to work such additional
                                         hours (without any additional remuneration, unless it is specifically agreed by the Remuneration
                                         Committee and approved by the Board) as may be required for the proper performance of
                                         your duties.

 

		6.	You

                                         the framework or broad policy for the remuneration of the chairman of the Board, chief
                                         executive, and the other executive directors, the Company secretary and such other members
                                         of the executive management as it is designated to consider. The remuneration of non-executive
                                         directors shall be a matter for the executive members of the Board. No director or manager
                                         shall be involved in any decisions as to their own remuneration;

 

		(b)	in determining such policy, take
                                         into account all factors which it deems necessary including relevant legal and regulatory
                                         requirements, the provisions and recommendations of the UK Corporate Governance Code
                                         and associated guidance, and the NASDAQ stock market requirements. The objective of such
                                         policy shall be to ensure that members of the executive management of the Company are
                                         provided with appropriate incentives to encourage enhanced performance and are, in a
                                         fair and responsible manner, rewarded for their individual contributions to the success
                                         of the Company;

 

		(c)	when setting remuneration policy
                                         for directors, review and have regard to the remuneration trends across the Company or
                                         Group as a whole;

 

		(d)	review the ongoing appropriateness
                                         and relevance of the remuneration policy;

 

    	 	 	 

     

    

 

		(e)	within the terms of the agreed
                                         policy and in consultation with the chairman and/or chief executive, as appropriate,
                                         determine the total individual remuneration package of the chairman of the Board, each
                                         executive director, Company secretary and other designated senior executives including
                                         bonuses, incentive payments and restricted share awards or other share awards; and

 

		(f)	on an annual basis and within the
                                         context of paragraph 3.1(e) above, review corporate goals and objectives relevant to
                                         the chief executive’s compensation, evaluate the chief executive’s performance
                                         in light of those goals and objectives, and determine the chief executive’s compensation
                                         level based on this evaluation. In determining any long-term incentive component of the
                                         chief executive’s compensation, the Committee shall consider the Company’s
                                         performance and relative shareholder return, the value of similar incentive awards to
                                         chief executive officers at comparable companies, and the awards given to the Company’s
                                         chief executive in past years.

                                         about remuneration in other companies. To help it fulfil its obligations the Committee
                                         shall have full authority to appoint remuneration consultants and to commission or purchase
                                         any reports, surveys or information which it deems necessary within any budgetary restraints
                                         imposed by the Board; and

                                         targets for, any performance related pay schemes operated by the Company and approve
                                         the total annual payments made under such schemes;

 

		(b)	review the design of all share
                                         incentive plans for approval by the Board and (if required) by the shareholders. For
                                         any such plans, determine each year whether awards will be made, and if so, the overall
                                         amount of such awards, the individual awards to executive directors, Company secretary
                                         and other designated senior executives and the performance targets to be used;

                                         termination, and any payments made, are fair to the individual, and the Company, that
