120 easyJet plc Annual report and accounts 2014
Notes to the accounts continued
19 Share incentive schemes continued
Subject to company performance, easyJet also issues free shares under the approved share incentive plan of up to £3,000 in
value. There is a similar unapproved scheme for international employees.
The fair value of grants under the Discretionary and Sharesave schemes are estimated by applying the Binomial Lattice option
pricing model. The fair value of grants under the TSR based Long Term Incentive Plan is estimated under the Stochastic model
(also known as the Monte Carlo model). The fair value of grants under all other schemes is the share price on the date of grant.
The following assumptions are used:

Share price is the closing share price from the last working day prior to the date of grant.
Exercise price for the discretionary schemes was determined using a five-day weighted average price. For the Sharesave
scheme, exercise price is set at a 20% discount from share price.
Expected volatility is based on historical volatility over a period comparable to the expected life of each type of option.
Levels of early exercises and forfeitures are estimated using historical averages.
The weighted average fair value of matching shares granted under the Share Incentive Plan during the year was £14.61 (2013: £9.77).
For grants under the Sharesave scheme after 30 September 2011, the dividend yield assumption is calculated based on the
actual yield at the date the options are granted. For the options granted on 1 July 2012, 1 July 2013 and 1 July 2014, the dividend
yield assumption was 2%.
