2.2 The Committee shall from time to time determine which of parts A to D of the Rules shall have effect.

3. DECLARATION OF TRUST

3.1 The Participating Companies and the Trustees have agreed that all the Shares and other assets which are issued to or transferred to the Trustees are to be held on the trusts declared by this Deed, and subject to the terms of the Rules. When Shares or assets are transferred to the Trustees by the Participating Companies with the intention of being held as part of the Plan they shall be held upon the trusts and provisions of this Deed and the Rules.

3.2 The Trustees shall hold the Trust Fund upon the following trusts namely:

3

(a) as to Shares which have not been awarded to Participants (“Unawarded Shares”) upon trust during the Trust Period to allocate those Shares in accordance with the terms of this Deed and the Rules;

(c) as to Partnership Share Money upon trust to purchase Shares for the benefit of the contributing Qualifying Employee in accordance with the Rules; and

5. INFORMATION

5.1 The Trustees shall be entitled to rely without further enquiry on all information supplied to them by the Participating Companies (or persons authorised by the Company) with regard to their duties as Trustees and in particular, but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any notice given by a Participating Company (or persons authorised by the Company) to the Trustees in respect of the eligibility of any person to become or remain a Participant shall be conclusive in favour of the Trustees.

5.2 Except as otherwise provided, the Trustees may in their discretion agree with the Committee, the Company or any of the Participating Companies (or persons authorised by the Company) on matters relating to the operation and administration of the Trust as they may consider advisable in the interest of the Trust and so that no person claiming an interest under this Trust shall be entitled to question the legality or correctness of any arrangement or agreement made between the Committee, the Company or any of the Participating Companies (or persons authorised by the Company) and the Trustees in relation to such operation or administration.

5.3 The decision of the Committee in any dispute affecting Participants or Participating Companies shall be final and conclusive.

4. ELIGIBILITY OF INDIVIDUALS

4.1 Subject to Rule 4.2, individuals are eligible to participate in an Award only if:

(a) they are employees of a Participating Company;

19

4.2 If a Participant receives an Award of Shares under the Plan in a Tax Year in which they have already received an award of shares under one or more other plans established by the Company or a Connected Company and qualifying as a Schedule 2 SIP, the following shall apply as if the Plan and the other plan or plans were a single plan: Rules 6.4, 6.5 and 6.6 (maximum amount of deductions in respect of Partnership Shares).

4.3 Notwithstanding any provision of any other of these Rules whatsoever:

(a) the Plan shall not form part of any contract of employment between the Company, a Subsidiary or any Associated Company and any Participant and it shall not confer on any Participant any legal or equitable rights (other than those constituted by the Awards themselves) whatsoever against the Company, a Subsidiary or an Associated Company directly or indirectly or give rise to any cause of action at law or in equity against the Company, a Subsidiary or any Associated Company;

(b) participation in an Award is a matter entirely separate from any pension right or entitlement a Participant may have and from his terms or conditions of employment and participation in the Plan shall in no respect whatever affect his pension rights or entitlements or terms or conditions of employment and in particular (but without limiting the generality of the foregoing) any Participant who ceases to be an employee of any Company, Subsidiary or Associated Company shall not be entitled to any compensation for any loss of any right or benefit or prospective right or benefit under the Plan which he might otherwise have enjoyed whether such compensation is claimed by way of damages for wrongful dismissal or other breach of contract or by way of compensation for loss of office or otherwise howsoever and notwithstanding that he may have been dismissed wrongfully or unfairly (within the meaning of the Employment Rights Act 1996).

20

PART A

6. PARTNERSHIP SHARES

6.1 The Committee may at any time invite every Qualifying Employee to enter into a Partnership Share Agreement, should the Committee decide to offer Partnership Shares, in accordance with this Part of the Rules.

6.2 Unless the Committee in its absolute discretion determines otherwise, no Accumulation shall apply. The Committee may determine that an Accumulation Period shall apply, provided that any Accumulation Period shall not exceed 12 months and shall apply equally to all Qualifying Employees in the Plan.

6.3 Partnership Shares shall not be subject to any provision under which they may be forfeited.

Maximum amount of deductions

6.4 The amount of Partnership Share Money deducted from an employee’s Salary shall not exceed £1,800 in any Tax Year (or such other amount as may from time to time be permitted under paragraph 46(1) of the Schedule and approved by the Committee). The Committee may set a lower annual limit which may be framed in accordance with paragraph 46(4A) of the Schedule and, subject to Rules 6.4, 6.5 and 6.7, may also set a monthly limit. If the Salary is not paid monthly, the applicable limit shall be calculated proportionately.

6.5 The amount of Partnership Share Money deducted from an employee’s Salary over any Tax Year shall not exceed 10% (or such other percentage as may from time to time be permitted under paragraph 46(2) of the Schedule and approved by the Committee) of the total of the payments of Salary made to such employee for the Tax Year.

6.6 Any amount deducted in excess of that allowed by Rule 6.4 or Rule 6.5 shall be paid over to the employee, subject to both deduction of income tax under PAYE and primary class 1 (employee) NICs, as soon as practicable.

Minimum amount of deductions

6.7 The minimum amount to be deducted under the Partnership Share Agreement on any occasion shall be the same in relation to all Partnership Share Agreements entered into in response to invitations issued on the same occasion. It shall not be greater than £10, or any other limit as amended by legislation from time to time.

Notice of possible effect of deductions on benefit entitlement

6.8 Every Partnership Share Agreement shall contain a notice under paragraph 48 of the Schedule.

Restriction imposed on number of Shares awarded

6.9 The Committee may specify the maximum number of Partnership Shares to be included in an Award of Partnership Shares.

6.10 The Partnership Share Agreement shall contain an undertaking by the Company to notify each Qualifying Employee of any restriction on the number of Shares to be included in an Award of Partnership Shares.

6.11 The notification in Rule 6.10 above shall be given:

21

(a) if there is no Accumulation Period, before the deduction of the Partnership Share Money relating to the Award; and

(b) if there is an Accumulation Period, before the beginning of the Accumulation Period relating to the Award.

Plan with no Accumulation Period

6.12 The Trustees shall acquire Partnership Shares on behalf of the Qualifying Employee using the Partnership Share Money. They shall acquire the Partnership Shares on the Acquisition Date. The number of Partnership Shares awarded to each employee shall be determined in accordance with the Market Value of the Shares on that date.

Plan with Accumulation Period

6.13 If there is an Accumulation Period, the Trustees shall acquire Partnership Shares on behalf of the Qualifying Employee, on the Acquisition Date, using the Partnership Share Money.

6.14 The number of Partnership Shares acquired on behalf of each Participant shall be determined by reference to one of the following methods:

(a) the lower of the Market Value of the Shares at the beginning of the Accumulation Period and the Market Value of the Shares on the Acquisition Date;

(b) the Market Value of the Shares at the beginning of the Accumulation Period; or

(c) the Market Value of the Shares on the Acquisition Date,

and the method to be used shall be specified in the Partnership Share Agreement.

6.15 If a transaction occurs during an Accumulation Period which results in a new holding of shares being equated for the purposes of capital gains tax with any of the Shares to be acquired under the Partnership Share Agreement, the employee may agree that the Partnership Share Agreement shall have effect after the time of that transaction as if it were an agreement for the purchase of shares comprised in the new holding.

6.16 If an Accumulation Period will apply, the Partnership Share Agreement shall specify when each Accumulation Period begins and ends, and may specify that an Accumulation Period comes to an end on the occurrence of a specified event.

Surplus Partnership Share Money

6.17 Any surplus Partnership Share Money remaining after the acquisition of Partnership Shares by the Trustees:

(a) may, with the agreement of the Participant, be carried forward to the next Accumulation Period or the next deduction date; and

(b) in any other case, shall be paid over to the Participant, subject to both deduction of income tax under PAYE and primary class 1 (employee) NICs, as soon as practicable.

6.18 Where the Participant ceases to be a Qualifying Employee during an Accumulation Period, the Trustees shall repay all Partnership Share Money to the Participant as soon as practicable.

22

Scaling down

6.19 If the total number of Partnership Shares to be purchased on any Acquisition Date would result in the maximum determined in accordance with Rule 6.9 to be exceeded, then the number of Partnership Shares purchased on behalf of each Qualifying Employee under Rules 6.12 and 6.14 shall be reduced proportionately to the extent necessary to keep within the maximum. Each application shall be deemed to have been modified or withdrawn in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and each employee who has applied for Partnership Shares shall be notified of the change.

Stopping and re-starting deductions

6.20 An employee may stop or re-start deductions under a Partnership Share Agreement at any time by notice in writing to their employing company, provided that if the Committee so determines (in respect of all Participants), deductions may not be re-started more than once in any Accumulation Period. Unless a later date is specified in the notice, such notice shall take effect as soon as practicable but in any event no later than 30 days after their employing company receives it. A Participant may agree in writing with the Company to vary the amount of Partnership Share Money or the intervals at which deductions are made at any time.

Withdrawal from Partnership Share Agreement

6.21 An employee may withdraw from a Partnership Share Agreement at any time by notice in writing to their employing company. Unless a later date is specified in the notice, such a notice shall take effect as soon as practicable but in any event no later than 30 days after the employing company receives it. Any Partnership Share Money then held on behalf of an employee shall be paid over to that employee as soon as practicable. This payment shall be subject to income tax under PAYE and primary class 1 (employee) NICs.

Repayment of Partnership Share Money on Termination

6.22 If a Plan Termination Notice is issued in respect of the Plan, any Partnership Share Money held on behalf of employees shall be repaid to them as soon as practicable, subject to deduction of income tax under PAYE, and primary class 1 (employee) NICs.

Repayment of Partnership Share Money on Plan ceasing to be a Schedule 2 SIP

6.23 If the Plan ceases to be a Schedule 2 SIP by virtue of paragraph 81H or 81I of the Schedule, any Partnership Share Money held on behalf of employees shall be repaid to them as soon as practicable after the relevant day (as defined in paragraph 56(2A) of the Schedule, if the Plan ceases to be a Schedule 2 SIP by virtue of paragraph 81H of the Schedule, or as defined in paragraph 56(2B) of the Schedule, if the Plan ceases to be a Schedule 2 SIP by virtue of paragraph 81I of the Schedule), subject to deduction of income tax under PAYE, and primary class 1 (employee) NICs.

23

PART B

7. DIVIDEND SHARES

Reinvestment of cash dividends

7.1 The Partnership Share Agreement shall set out the rights and obligations of Participants receiving Dividend Shares under the Plan.

7.2 The Committee may direct that any cash dividend in respect of Plan Shares held on behalf of Participants may be applied in acquiring further Plan Shares on their behalf.

7.3 Dividend Shares shall be Shares:

(a) of the same class and carrying the same rights as the Shares in respect of which the dividend is paid; and

(b) which are not subject to any provision for forfeiture.

7.4 The Committee may decide to direct the Trustees to:

(a) pay all dividends in cash to all Participants;

(b) apply some or all of the Participants’ dividends to acquire Dividend Shares; or

(c) offer Participants the choice of either paragraph (a) or (b) above.

If only some of the Participants’ dividends are to be used to acquire Dividend Shares, the Committee must direct how that amount is to be determined.

7.5 The Committee may revoke any direction for reinvestment of cash dividends.

7.6 If the amounts received by the Trustees exceed any limit specified by the Committee, the balance shall be paid to the Participant as soon as practicable.

7.7 If dividends are to be reinvested, the Trustees shall apply the cash dividends to acquire Dividend Shares on behalf of the Participant on the Acquisition Date. The number of Dividend Shares acquired on behalf of each Participant shall be determined by the Market Value of the Shares on the Acquisition Date.

Certain amounts not reinvested to be carried forward

7.8 Subject to Rule 7.7, any amount that is not reinvested because it is insufficient to acquire a Share may be retained by the Trustees and carried forward to be added to the amount of the next cash dividend to be reinvested.

7.9 Subject to Rule 7.7 and Rule 7.8, any amount that is not reinvested shall be repaid to the Participant as soon as practicable.

7.10 If:

(a) the Participant ceases to be in Relevant Employment; or

(b) a Plan Termination Notice is issued,

the amount not reinvested shall be repaid to the Participant as soon as practicable. On making such a payment, the Participant shall be provided with the information specified in paragraph 80(4) of the Schedule.

24

PART C

8. FREE SHARES

8.1 The Committee may at any time invite every Qualifying Employee to enter into a Free Share Agreement and participate in an Award of Free Shares, should the Committee decide to offer Free Shares, in accordance with this part C of the Rules.

8.2 For each Award of Free Shares, the Committee may specify that:

(a) each Participant receives a certain number or value of Free Shares, which will be the same for each Participant); or

(b) the number or value of Free Shares received by each Participant is determined in accordance with Rules 8.7 to 8.15.

Free Share Agreements

8.3 A Qualifying Employee who wishes to participate in an Award must enter into a Free Share Agreement with the Company and the Trustees in the form specified by the Committee from time to time.

Maximum Annual Value of Free Share Awards

8.4 In any Tax Year, the total Market Value of Free Shares (at the relevant Award Dates) awarded to any individual must not be more than £3,600 (or any other amount specified by paragraph 35(1) of the Schedule).

8.5 For the purposes of Rule 8.4, Free Shares includes any free shares (as defined in the Schedule) awarded under any share incentive plan (other than the Plan):

(a) that is a Schedule 2 SIP at the time of the award of those free shares; and

(b) set up by the Company or any connected company as defined in paragraph 18(3) of the Schedule.

8.6 If Free Shares are subject to a Relevant Restriction, information on the nature of the Relevant Restriction must be included in the Free Share Agreement.

Free Share Award Levels set by Remuneration, Service or Hours Worked

8.7 The Committee may specify that the value or number of Free Shares awarded is calculated (in a manner determined by the Committee) by reference to each Participant’s:

(a) remuneration;

(b) length of service; or

(c) hours worked.

8.8 If more than one of these factors is used:

(a) each factor will give rise to a separate level of entitlement to Free Shares for each Participant; and

(b) a Participant’s total entitlement to Free Shares is the sum of those separate entitlements.

25

8.9 If Award levels are set in this way, the Company must inform each Participant how the value or number of Free Shares awarded was calculated.

Free Share Award levels set by reference to performance targets

8.10 The Committee may specify that the value or number of Free Shares (if any) to be awarded is determined (either in whole or in part) by reference to performance targets specified by the Committee for that Award. The performance targets specified must apply to all Eligible Employees in relation to that Award.

8.11 Any performance target must:

(a) be set for a performance unit of one or more employees specified by the Committee (but no employee may be a member of more than one performance unit);

(b) relate to business results or other objective criteria over a specified period;

(c) be a fair and objective measure of the performance of the performance unit;

(d) be communicated by the Company to Participants who may be affected by it, as soon as possible in accordance with Rule 8.12; and

(e) comply with Rule 8.15 (if applicable).

8.12 As soon as reasonably practicable, the Company must:

(a) notify each Participant that has entered into a Free Share Agreement of the performance targets and measures that will be used to determine the number or value of Free Shares to be awarded under that agreement; and

(b) notify all Eligible Employees in general terms of the performance measures that will be used to determine the number or value of Free Shares that will be awarded to each Participant under the Award. The Company may omit from that notice any information that it reasonably considers would prejudice commercial confidentiality, if it was disclosed.

8.13 If the Committee specifies that an Award of Free Shares will be determined by reference to performance targets for that Award of Free Shares, the Committee must specify which of Rule 8.14 or Rule 8.15 will apply to that Award.

8.14 If the Committee specifies that this Rule 8.14 applies to an Award of Free Shares:

(a) at least 20% of those Free Shares must not be performance-linked, so that each Participant receives a number of Free Shares that is either (as specified by the Committee):

(i) the same for all Participants; or

(ii) calculated using the factors listed in Rule 8.7;

(b) the remaining Free Shares in the Award must be awarded by reference to performance;

(c) the highest number of Free Shares awarded to any individual under Rule 8.14(b) must not be more than four times the highest number of Free Shares awarded to any individual under Rule 8.14(a); and

26

(d) if the Award includes Free Shares of different classes, the requirements of this Rule 8.14 will apply to the Free Shares of each class as if they were a separate Award of Free Shares.

8.15 If the Committee specifies that this Rule 8.15 applies to an Award of Free Shares:

(a) some or all of the Free Shares in the Award (as specified by the Committee) must be awarded by reference to performance;

(b) the performance targets specified for different performance units must be consistent targets, which are reasonably comparable in terms of the likelihood of being met by the performance units to which they apply;

(c) the Free Shares in the Award must be awarded so that each Participant within a given performance unit receives an amount of Free Shares (if any) that is determined in whole or in part by reference to the relevant performance target and is either (as specified by the Committee):

(i) the same for all Participants in that performance unit; or

(ii) different for different members of the performance unit, with the differences between members determined using the factors listed in Rule 8.7;

(d) in deciding whether invitations to participate and the participation of individual Participants under an Award of Free Shares are on the same terms, the Free Shares awarded to each performance unit will be treated as a separate Award. If the requirements of this Rule 8.15 are met, invitations to participate made to, and participation by, members of different performance units under an Award of Free Shares do not need to be on the same terms.

27

PART D

9. MATCHING SHARES

9.1 The Committee may at any time invite every Qualifying Employee to participate in an Award of Matching Shares, should the Committee decide to offer Matching Shares, in accordance with this part D of the Rules.

9.2 Matching Shares shall:

(a) be Shares of the same class and carrying the same rights as the Partnership Shares to which they relate;

(b) be awarded on the same day as the Partnership Shares to which they relate are acquired on behalf of the Participant; and

(c) be Awarded to all Participants that acquire Partnership Shares to which the Matching Shares relate on exactly the same basis.

9.3 If Matching Shares are subject to a Relevant Restriction, information on the nature of the Relevant Restriction must be included in the Partnership Share Agreement.

9.4 For any Award of Matching Shares, the Committee must specify the ratio of Matching Shares to Partnership Shares. The ratio determined by the Committee must not exceed two Matching Shares for every Partnership Share (or any other limit specified by paragraph 60(2) of the Schedule).

9.5 A Partnership Share Agreement under which an Award of Matching Shares is to be made must specify the ratio of Matching Shares to Partnership Shares determined by Committee under Rule 9.3 and the circumstances and manner in which the ratio may be changed by the Committee under Rule 9.6.

9.6 The Committee, in its absolute discretion, may alter the ratio of Matching Shares to Partnership Shares at any time in accordance with paragraph 60(4) of the Schedule, however:

(a) the Committee must give notice of any such change to all affected Participants and the Trustee as soon as reasonably practicable; and

(b) any altered ratio must take effect on the first Acquisition of Partnership Shares in relation to which Matching Shares are to be awarded falling after the end of a period of 30 days from the date the Committee sent the notice.

9.7 If the calculation of the number of Matching Shares to be awarded to a Participant gives a result that is not a whole number:

(a) in that Award, the Participant will receive the largest whole number of Matching Shares that is less than the entitlement (or no Matching Shares if the entitlement is less than one); and

(b) the entitlement to less than one Matching Share not reflected in that Award will be carried forward and added to the entitlement to Matching Shares in the next (and if necessary, any subsequent) Awards of Matching Shares (if any).

9.8 If a Participant withdraws from the relevant Partnership Share Agreement while entitled to receive less than one Matching Share in a potential future Award under Rule 9.7(b), the Participant will not be compensated for the loss of that entitlement.

28

10. ACQUISITION OF SHARES

All Awards under the Plan shall be satisfied by existing Shares which are purchased by the Trustees on the open market at the best price available or at arm’s length from any shareholder on the Acquisition Date. The Trustees shall not have the right to subscribe to the Company for newly issued Shares in order to satisfy an Award. The Trustees may purchase the beneficial interest in Shares at the best consideration in money that can reasonably be obtained at the time of the sale from a Participant who has submitted a sale request in accordance with the Rules.

11. HOLDING PERIOD

11.1 The Holding Period for Dividend Shares shall be a period of 3 years (or such other period as may from time to time be specified under paragraph 67 of the Schedule), beginning with the Acquisition Date.

11.2 The Committee must specify a Holding Period for each Award of Free Shares or Matching Shares. The Committee may specify different Holding Periods for different Awards of Free Shares or Matching Shares, but may not increase any Holding Period once it has begun.

11.3 A Participant’s obligations with respect to a Holding Period end if, during the Holding Period, the Participant ceases to be employed by a Participating Company or any Associated Company (without then employed by any other company that is an Associated Company).

11.4 During a Holding Period, every Participant who participates in the relevant Award of Free Shares, Matching Shares or Dividend Shares must:

(a) allow those Plan Shares to remain in the hands of the Trustee; and

(b) not assign, charge or otherwise dispose of the beneficial interest in those Plan Shares.

11.5 A Participant may during the Holding Period for Dividend Shares, Free Shares and/or Matching Shares direct the Trustees:

(a) to accept an offer for any of their Dividend Shares, Free Shares and/or Matching Shares if the acceptance or agreement shall result in a new holding being equated with their Dividend Shares, Free Shares and/or Matching Shares for the purposes of capital gains tax; or

(b) to accept an offer of a Qualifying Corporate Bond (whether alone or with other assets or cash or both) for those Shares if the offer forms part of such a general offer as is mentioned in paragraph (c) below; or

(c) to accept an offer of cash, with or without other assets, for their Dividend Shares, Free Shares and/or Matching Shares if the offer forms part of a general offer (which can be made to different shares by different means) which is made

(i) to holders of shares of the same class as their Dividend Shares, Free Shares and/or Matching Shares or to holders of shares in the same company; and

(ii) in the first instance on a condition such that if it is satisfied the person making the offer shall have control of that company, within the meaning of sections 450 and 451 of the CTA 2010; or

(d) to exercise a right arising under section 983 of the CA 2006 to require the offeror to acquire their Dividend Shares, Free Shares and/or Matching Shares, in the case of a takeover offer (as defined in section 974 of the CA 2006) that relates to the Company and where the class or classes of shares to which the takeover offer relates includes the class of their Shares; or

29

(e) to agree to a transaction affecting their Plan Shares or such of them as are of a particular class, if the transaction would be entered into pursuant to a compromise, arrangement or scheme applicable to or affecting:

(i) all of the ordinary share capital of the Company or, as the case may be, all the shares of the class in question; or

(ii) all the shares, or all the shares of the class in question, which are held by a class of shareholders identified otherwise than by reference to their employment or their participation in a plan which qualifies as a Schedule 2 SIP.

11.6 Where a Participant is charged to tax in the event of their Dividend Shares ceasing to be subject to the Plan, they shall be provided with the information required by paragraph 80(4) of the Schedule.

12. FORFEITURE PERIOD

12.1 For each Award of Free Shares, the Committee may specify under the Free Share Agreement whether Rule 12.3 shall apply to all of the Shares in that Award, and, if so, shall specify the Forfeiture Period.

12.2 For each Award of Matching Shares, the Board may specify under the relevant Partnership Share Agreement whether Rule 12.3 shall apply to all of the Shares in that Award and, if so, shall specify the Forfeiture Period.

12.3 If this Rule 12.3 applies to any Free Shares and Matching Shares, they will be forfeited if, during the Forfeiture Period, the Participant’s employment with a Participating Company or any Associated Company ends (and the Participant is not employed by any other company that is an Associated Company), unless the employment ends because of:

(a) injury or disability;

(b) redundancy;

(c) a relevant transfer within the meaning of the Transfer or Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006;

(d) if the Participant is an employee of an Associated Company, a change of control or other circumstances as a result of which it is no longer an Associated Company;

(e) retirement; or

(f) death.

12.4 Free Shares and Matching Shares will be Forfeit if any Shares are withdrawn from the Plan (as described in paragraph 96 of the Schedule) during the Forfeiture Period.

12.5 The Forfeiture Period must not be linked to the performance of any individual.

13. COMPANY RECONSTRUCTIONS

13.1 The following provisions of this Rule apply if there occurs in relation to any of a Participant’s Plan Shares (referred to in this Rule as “the Original Holding”):

30

(a) a transaction which results in a new holding (referred to in this Rule as “the New Holding”) being equated with the Original Holding for the purposes of capital gains tax; or

(b) a transaction which would have that result but for the fact that what would be the new holding consists of or includes a Qualifying Corporate Bond.

13.2 If an issue of shares of any of the following description (in respect of which a charge to income tax arises) is made as part of a company reconstruction, those shares shall be treated for the purposes of this Rule as not forming part of the New Holding:

(a) redeemable shares or securities issued as mentioned in paragraph C or D of section 1000(1) of CTA 2010;

(b) share capital issued in circumstances such that section 1022(3) of CTA 2010 applies; or

(c) share capital to which section 410 of the Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005 applies that is issued in a case where subsection (2) or (3) of that section applies.

13.3 In this Rule:

“Corresponding Shares” in relation to any New Shares, means the Shares in respect of which the New Shares are issued or which the New Shares otherwise represent;

“New Shares” means shares comprised in the New Holding which were issued in respect of, or otherwise represent, shares comprised in the Original Holding.

13.4 Subject to the following provisions of this Rule, references in this Plan to a Participant’s Plan Shares shall be respectively construed, after the time of the company reconstruction, as being or, as the case may be, as including references to any New Shares.

13.5 For the purposes of the Plan:

(a) a company reconstruction shall be treated as not involving a disposal of Shares comprised in the Original Holding; and

(b) the date on which any New Shares are to be treated as having been appropriated to or acquired on behalf of the Participant

shall be that on which Corresponding Shares were so appropriated or acquired.

13.6 In the context of a New Holding, any reference in this Rule to shares includes securities and rights of any description which form part of the New Holding for the purposes of Chapter II of Part IV of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992.

14. RIGHTS ISSUES

14.1 Any shares or securities allotted under Clause 11 of the Deed shall be treated as Plan Shares identical to the shares in respect of which the rights were conferred. They shall be treated as if they were awarded to or acquired on behalf of the Participant under the Plan in the same way and at the same time as those Plan Shares in respect of which they are allotted.

31

14.2 Rule 14.1 does not apply:

(a) to shares and securities allotted as the result of taking up a rights issue where the funds to exercise those rights were obtained otherwise than by virtue of the Trustees disposing of rights in accordance with this Rule; or

(b) where the rights to a share issue attributed to Plan Shares are different from the rights attributed to other ordinary shares of the Company.

15. LEAVERS

15.1 If a Participant ceases to hold Relevant Employment, his Plan Shares shall immediately cease to be subject to the Plan. Subject to Rule 15.2, the Trustees must within 90 days after such cessation transfer the legal title to any Plan Shares awarded to him or acquired on his behalf under the Plan. If and for so long as the Trustees retain any title to or interest in such Shares, the Trustee shall hold such title or interest on bare trust for the Participant otherwise than in the Plan.

15.2 If, in consequence of a Participant’s Plan Shares ceasing to be subject to the Plan, the Participant is chargeable to income tax in accordance with Chapter 6 of Part 7 of ITEPA and primary class 1 (employee) NICs and an obligation to make a deduction under PAYE arises in respect of that charge, the Trustees may:

(a) accept a sum from the Participant; and/or

(b) dispose of sufficient of the Participant’s Shares to meet such liabilities on behalf of the Participant (including but not limited to a purchase by the Trustees of the beneficial interest in such Shares).

15.3 The Trustees shall pay to the Participant’s employer a sum which is sufficient to discharge its liability to account for income tax and primary class 1 (employee) NICs under PAYE in respect of the Participant. If there is no employer to which PAYE then applies or HMRC is of the opinion that it is impracticable for the Participant’s employer to account for the relevant amounts under PAYE, then the Trustees shall account for the same as if the Participant were a former employee of the Trustee.

15.4 For the purposes of this Rule 15, in the event of a Participant’s death, references to a Participant shall include references to his personal representatives.

16. DELEGATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE RESPONSIBILITIES
