Shareholder dilution
Where shares may be issued or treasury shares reissued to satisfy incentives, the aggregate dilution resulting from executive share-
based incentives will not exceed 5% in any 10 year period. Dilution resulting from all incentives, including all-employee incentives, will not
exceed 10% in any 10 year period. The Committee reviews dilution against these limits regularly and under these limits the Company, as
at 31 March 2014, had headroom of 4.01% and 7.99% respectively.
Statement of Directors’ shareholdings and share interests (audited information)
The Executive Directors are required to build up and hold a shareholding from vested share plan awards. Deferred share awards are not
taken into account for these purposes until the end of the deferral period. Shares are valued for these purposes at the 31 March 2014
price, which was 822 pence per share ($68.74 per ADS).
The following table shows how each Executive Director complies with the shareholding requirement and also the number of shares
owned by the Non-executive Directors, including connected persons. For Ken Harvey and George Rose, the shareholding is as at the
date they stepped down from the Board. For all others it is 31 March 2014.
