The performance condition applicable to the Performance Options as set by the Remuneration Committee is:

Total shareholder return ("TSR") relative to the TSR of certain selected European airlines. The base measure for TSR will be the average trading price of shares during the 30 days immediately before the reference date (30 May 2020), and the closing measure will be the average trading price of shares during the 30 days immediately before the third anniversary of the reference date. At vesting, pay-out is to be 25% of the award for TSR performance equal to median performance, with a 100% pay-out for performance equal to, or exceeding, upper quartile performance. Linear interpolation will apply for performance between the median and upper quartile.

All vested options must be exercised within ten years of the date of grant. If exercised, then the underlying shares of the vested options will be issued at nil cost to the option holders. No amounts have been paid by the relevant PDMRs for the grant of these options.
