Summary of remuneration for the 2012 nancial year
In this section we summarise the pay packages awarded to our executive directors for performance in the 2012 nancial year versus 2011.
Specically we have provided a table that shows all remuneration that was received by the individual during the year. In response to the debate on
simplifying remuneration disclosure we have included a single total remuneration value for the year. Although there are some technical difculties in
arriving at a single value, particularly concerning the timing and valuation of awards which may not be aligned with the nancial year end, we have
attempted to provide the data in a logical format along with accompanying explanatory notes. Specically we have included the value of the
short-term incentive (‘GSTIP’) that was earned during the year but paid out in the following year and the value of long-term incentive (‘GLTI’) that
vested and paid out during the year. For completeness the GLTI that vests in the following year has also been included in a separate table below
although in the case of the award vesting in June 2012, the value can only be estimated at this stage.

24July 2010 using the closing share price on the rst trading day after the award vested (26 July 2010) of 151.5 pence. Michel Combes’ award did not vest until 12 February 2012 and is valued using the closing share price on
thatday of174.5 pence.
2 Under the GLTI rules, participants receive a cash award equivalent to any dividends that would have been paid on the matching shares during the performance period.

Note:
1 The awards summarised in this table represent those that vested after the close of the nancial year, but are based on the three-year performance period ended at 31 March 2012 for the awards shown in the 2012 column,
and 31 March 2011 for the awards shown in the 2011 column. The awards listed under 2012 will not vest until 30 June 2012. Wevalued the award using a closing share price on 31 March 2012 of 172.2 pence, however, the nal
award value will not be certain until the award vests.
In light of the high value of the award that will vest in June, Vittorio Colao has committed to hold 100% of the shares that vest (net of those sold to
cover tax) for an additional two years. Similarly the other executive directors have all agreed to hold 50% (net of those sold to cover tax) for the same
period.
Below we summarise our performance over the nancial year, and three-year performance period ended 31 March 2012, which resulted in the
remuneration disclosed in the above tables.
Details of the GSTIP payout
In the table below we describe our achievement against each of the performance measures in our annual bonus plan (‘GSTIP’) and the resulting total
incentive payout level for the year ended 31 March 2012 of 93.4%. Vittorio Colao, Andy Halford and Stephen Pusey were measured purely on Group
performance whilst Michel Combes was measured on a combination of Group and Europe region performance. The corresponding total incentive
payout for Michel Combes was 92.1%. Details of how this works can be found on page 79.
