Provide an appropriate<br />
reward to attract and retain<br />
high calibre individuals.<br />
Neither the Chairman nor<br />
any of the Non-Executive<br />
Directors are entitled to a<br />
bonus or benefits and their<br />
fees are not performance<br />
related.<br />
The fee for the Chairman reflects<br />
the level of commitment and<br />
responsibility of the role.<br />
The fee is paid monthly in cash<br />
and is inclusive of all committee<br />
roles.<br />
Non-Executive Directors’ fees are<br />
set at a level that ensures the<br />
Company can attract and retain<br />
individuals with the required skills,<br />
experience and knowledge to<br />
enable the Board effectively to<br />
carry out its duties. Non-<br />
Executive Directors’ remuneration<br />
comprises a base fee together<br />
with an additional fee for chairing<br />
one or more Board committees<br />
and a further fee for the role of<br />
Senior Independent Director.<br />
Set at a level which reflects the<br />
commitment and contribution<br />
expected from the Chairman<br />
and Non-Executive Directors,<br />
and is appropriately positioned<br />
against comparable roles in<br />
companies of a similar size<br />
and complexity.<br />
