2.7 There shall be no monetary consideration for the grant of any Award under the Plan.

2.8 Each Award shall be made by an Award Notification issued by the Company and shall be subject to such terms and conditions consistent with the Plan as the Board may determine in its sole discretion. The Award Notification shall state:

3.1 The maximum number of Shares which may be allocated under the Plan on any day shall not, when added to the aggregate of the number of Shares and Old Henderson Shares which have been allocated in the previous 10 years under the Plan and under any other Discretionary Share Scheme adopted by the Company or Old Henderson, exceed such number as represents 5 per cent of the ordinary share capital of the Company in issue immediately prior to that day.

3.2 The maximum number of Shares which may be allocated under the Plan on any day shall not, when added to the aggregate of the number of Shares and Old Henderson Shares which have been allocated in the previous 10 years under the Plan and under any other Employees’ Share Scheme adopted by the Company or Old Henderson, exceed such number as represents 10 per cent of the ordinary share capital of the Company in issue immediately prior to that day.

3.3 References in this Rule 3 to the “allocation” of Shares shall mean:

(a) in the case of any option, conditional share award or other similar award pursuant to which Shares may be acquired:

(i) the grant of the option, conditional share award or other similar award to acquire Shares, pursuant to which Shares may be issued; and

(ii) in so far as not previously taken into account under (i) above from the date of grant, any subscription for Shares which are issued for the purpose of satisfying any option, conditional share award or other similar award to acquire Shares; and

(b) in relation to other types of Employees’ Share Scheme, the issue and allotment of Shares,

and references to “allocated” in this Rule 3 shall be construed accordingly.

3.4 In determining the above limits no account shall be taken of

(b) any allocation (or part thereof) in respect of which the Board has determined shall be satisfied otherwise than by the issue of Shares; and

(c) such number of additional Shares as would otherwise have been issued on the exercise of an option for monetary consideration (the exercise price) but in respect of which the exercise price is not paid, in substitution for the issue of such lesser number of shares as have a market value equal only to the gain which the optionholder would have made on exercise (equity-settled SAR alternative).

3.5 References to the issue and allotment of Shares shall include the transfer of treasury shares, but only until such time as the guidelines issued by institutional investor bodies cease to provide that they need to be so included.

3.6 An Award shall not be granted to an Eligible Employee who is a director of the Company if such grant would cause the total Market Value of the maximum number of Shares that may be acquired on Release of the Award (as measured at the Date of Grant of the Award) when aggregated with the total Market Value of the maximum number of Shares that may be acquired pursuant to any other Award granted to the Eligible Employee in the previous 12 months under the Plan or any similar plan established by Old Henderson, to exceed 150% of the Eligible Employee’s Basic Salary as at the Date of Grant.

The Company shall (unless the Shares are to be issued in uncertified form) as soon as practicable deliver or procure the delivery to the Participant (or his nominee) of a definitive share certificate or other evidence of title in respect of such Shares. The Board may, in its discretion, require that particular Awards be satisfied by the transfer of existing Shares purchased in the market. he Company may, at its discretion, determine that an Award will be settled by procuring the payment of a cash sum to a Participant equal to the closing middle market quotation for each Vested Share on the Vesting Date (as derived from the Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange) subject to applicable deductions for tax and employee’s social security contributions.

4.5 Where the Release of an Award or the issue or transfer of Shares under the Plan would be prohibited by law or the Model Code published by the UK Listing Authority, the Award shall not be treated as having Vested and the period during which the Award may be Released and during which Shares may be issued or transferred shall not be treated as commencing until such period of prohibition no longer applies.

4.6 An Award shall be personal to the Participant and the Participant shall not sell, transfer, pledge, assign, hypothecate (or attempt to do so) or otherwise dispose of all or any Shares which are the subject of the Award or any interest therein until the Release Date.

Application of rules of the Plan and definitions

2. The rules of the Plan apply to Phantom Awards subject to such modifications as are set out in this Appendix 1 which the Board considers are necessary or desirable to take account of overseas tax, exchange control or other laws. Words and expressions defined in Rule 1.1 of the Plan shall have the same meanings in this Appendix 1 with appropriate changes, except as follows:

Eligible Employee means any bona fide employee of any member of the Group who is or who the Board considers may become primarily liable to tax outside the United Kingdom on their remuneration, excluding executive directors of the Company;

Release Value means for each Phantom Share in respect of which a Phantom Award has Vested:

(b) subject to (a) above, the market value of a Share on the effective date of exercise of the Phantom Award determined in accordance with Part VIII of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992;

Phantom Award means an award granted in the form referred to in paragraph 4 of this Appendix 1;

Phantom Share means a notional share equal in value to a Share, but having no legal rights attributable to a Share;

Release means the payment of a cash amount representing Vested Phantom Shares (whether automatically or pursuant to a notice of release) in accordance with Rule 4.4 (as amended by this Appendix 1), and Release Date shall be construed accordingly; and

Vested Phantom Shares means Phantom Shares subject to Phantom Awards which have become capable of Release and Vest, Vesting and Vesting Date shall be construed accordingly.

3. References to an Award in the rules of the Plan shall be construed for the purpose of this Appendix 1 as references to a Phantom Award.

Grant of Phantom Awards

4. Rule 2.1 shall be deleted and replaced as follows:

The Board may, during a Grant Period, in its discretion, grant Phantom Awards in the form of a right to receive contingent on the exercise of the Phantom Award a cash payment equal to the Release Value of a maximum number of Phantom Shares determined by the Board at the Date of Grant, to any Eligible Employees selected by the Board.

5. Reference in Rule 2.8 to the “number of shares comprised in an Award” shall be replaced with “the number of Phantom Shares comprised in a Phantom Award”.

Individual limits

6. Rule 3.4 shall be deleted.

Release of Phantom Awards

7. Rule 4.4 shall be deleted and replaced as follows:

Release of a Phantom Award shall be made no later than six months after the expiry of the relevant Restricted Period. A Participant must request the Release of the Phantom Award by giving notice in writing to the Company in the prescribed form.

4.4(a) Subject to Rules 4.4(b), 4.4(c) and 4.4(d), the Board shall procure the payment to a Participant not later than 30 days after receipt of a valid notice of Release of a Phantom Award by a Participant or after any date on which a Phantom Award has Vested and become capable of Release, of a sterling cash amount equal to the Release Value, less any applicable tax and social security withholding not later than 30 days following the Vesting Date of the Phantom Award.

4.4(b) The Board may in its discretion determine that the payment to be made to a Participant pursuant to Rule 4.4(a) should be made in a Participant’s local currency by reference to the exchange rate on the Release Date.

4.4(c) The amount payable to a Participant pursuant to Rule 4.4(a) or Rule 4.4(b) on exercise of a Phantom Award may, at the discretion of the Board be satisfied in whole or in part by the transfer of Shares to a Participant. The number of Shares which are to be transferred to a Participant in satisfaction of any payment due under Rule 4.4(a) or Rule 4.4(b) will be the number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole Share) which have a market value equal to the Release Value less any applicable tax and social security withholding. Any transfer of Shares will satisfy in full any amount to which the Participant becomes entitled in accordance with Rule 4.4(a) or Rule 4.4(b). Such Shares will be transferred within 30 days of the effective date of

exercise of the Phantom Award free of all liens, charges and encumbrances and together with all rights attaching to the Shares, except that they will not rank for any rights attaching to Shares by reference to a record date preceding the date of exercise.

9. The amount of any cash payment to be made to a Participant following the exercise of a Phantom Award in accordance with Rules 5.2 and 6 (as amended by this Appendix 1) shall be determined in accordance with Rule 4.4 (as amended by this Appendix 1) except that where Phantom Shares are Released before the expiry of the applicable Restricted Period in accordance with Rules 5.2(e)(i) and 6 (as amended by this Appendix 1), the number of Phantom Shares which are Released will be pro rated in accordance with the provisions of Rules 5.2(e)(ii) and 6 as though references to the number of Shares were construed as references to the number of Phantom Shares.

10. The Board may adjust the number of Phantom Shares in respect of which a Phantom Award has been granted in accordance with Rule 7 as if references in Rule 7 to Shares were references to Phantom Shares.

Forfeiture

11. In respect of Phantom Awards made on or after 4 May 2011, at any time prior to the Vesting Date, a Phantom Award shall be forfeit to the extent determined by the Board (and for the avoidance of doubt the Board may determine that a Phantom Award may be forfeited in whole or in part):
