Actual performance targets are considered commercially sensitive and will be disclosed retrospectively.

The options vest on the dealing day following the announcement by the Company of its annual results for 2023 or, if later, the date on which the Remuneration Committee determines whether the performance condition and any other condition has been satisfied (in whole or in part), and are exercisable 2 years after this date. The options will expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant .
