* These options are only exercisable to the extent that the demanding performance conditions set out in the earlier section within “Remuneration policies’ are met. For this reason, the potential profit at the year end, which is stated as the market value of 325.25p per share at that date of all the shares over which options are outstanding, is hypothetical. For an estimated theoretical value on grant of the 2006 PSP options, see page 70.
