Pension contributions*
The schedule below sets out payments to defined contribution pension schemes on behalf of Executive Directors. Roger Taylor has a Self Invested
Pension Plan; David Goldie and Andrew Harrison have a fixed amount of salary paid into defined contribution pension plans. Under both schemes, a
fixed proportion of salary is paid by the Company together with a fixed proportion by the Executive Director and both amounts are invested on behalf of
the Executive Director. Pension benefits are then funded by the total investment. Jim Dale had a similar scheme in the Isle of Man. Levels are reviewed
annually against published market data. None of the Directors was a member of a defined benefit pension scheme during the period. Pension
entitlements are based on basic salary only.
