Non-executive Directors’ Remuneration<br />
Non-executive directors do not have service contracts and are not eligible to participate in annual incentive plans, long-term incentive<br />
plans or pensions. Their fees are determined by the Board subject to the overall limit set by the shareholders, and reflect their<br />
individual responsibilities including membership of Board Committees.<br />
The basic fees payable to each non-executive director is £32,500 per annum. It is intended that the non-executive directors will continue<br />
to use a portion of their fees to purchase shares in the Company which they will hold at least until their retirement from the Board.<br />
With effect from 1 June <strong>2001</strong>, the respective Chairmen of the Audit and Remuneration Committees were paid an additional fee of<br />
£5,000 per annum in respect of their respective roles and the other directors on each Committee were paid an additional fee of £2,500<br />
per annum. It is intended that each year the net amount of these fees will be used by the non-executive directors to purchase shares in<br />
the Company, which will be held at least until their retirement from the Board. In <strong>2001</strong> the fee received by Sir Roger Hurn as Chairman<br />
was £300,000. In addition, Sandy Stewart, as Chairman of the supervisory board of the Scottish Amicable Insurance Fund received a<br />
fee of £30,000 and Roberto Mendoza as Chairman of Egg received a fee of £75,000.<br />
