Under the terms of each LTIP the award comprises a conditional award of shares on the following terms:

 
      --   the award will vest following the third anniversary of the 
            date of grant subject to performance targets and continued 
            employment in the NEXT Group; 
      --   a variable percentage of the maximum number of shares above 
            can vest, depending on the relative Total Shareholder Return 
            of NEXT over a three year period against a comparator group; 
      --   for relative performance against the comparator group the 
            percentage vesting will be: 
 
 
 Relative performance    Percentage vesting 
----------------------  ------------------- 
 Below median                            0% 
 Median                                 20% 
 Upper quintile                        100% 
 
 
      --   the Remuneration Committee has discretion to override and 
            reduce formulaic outcomes under the LTIP awards should this 
            be considered appropriate in the circumstances; 
      --   before any of the awards vest, the Committee must have regard 
            to the underlying financial performance of the Company; 
      --   to the extent that the performance condition is not met, 
            the award will lapse completely; 
      --   to the extent that awards vest, dividend equivalents will 
            be accrued; and 
      --   any vesting of these awards granted to executive directors 
            (including dividend equivalents) will be settled in shares 
            and, after payment of tax, the net shares received should 
            be retained for a period of two further years. 
 

LTIP awards are made twice a year. The maximum number of shares shown above is 112.5% of each director's base salary at the date of grant, divided by NEXT's average share price over the three months prior to the start of the performance period.
