5 Staff Costs (in $ million) (continued)
Share-based compensation expense (continued)
Share-based incentive plans (continued)
Fair values of share awards granted (continued)
For performance share grants with non-market conditions, the Group revises its estimates of the number of share
grants expected to vest and corresponding adjustments are made to the profit and loss account and share-based
compensation reserve.
Under the PSP, eligible key senior management are required to hold a portion of the shares released to them under a
share ownership guideline which requires them to maintain a beneficial ownership stake in the Company, thus further
aligning their interests with shareholders.
The number of contingent shares granted but not released as at 31 March 2010, were 1,734,240 (2009: 1,287,203)
and 644,163 (2009: 524,853) for RSP and PSP respectively. Based on the achievement factor, the actual release of the
awards could range from zero to a maximum of 2,424,156 (2009: 1,516,694) and 1,199,877 (2009: 787,280) fully-
paid ordinary shares of the Company, for RSP and PSP respectively.
Details and terms of the SIAEC RSP and SIAEC PSP have been disclosed in the Annual Report of SIA Engineering
Company Limited.
