Notes:
1. Includes the grants described above
2. Includes 2014 DBP awards to be met by market purchased shares
held by the Oxford BioMedica Employee Benefit Trust
Each award has been granted in the form of a nil-cost
option.
Under the terms of the 2015 DBP, the DBP grants will become
exercisable as to one third of the shares subject to it on each of
the first three anniversaries of the grant date.
The LTIP grants are subject to a three year vesting period. They
are exercisable from the third anniversary of the grant, subject to
the satisfaction of a performance condition. The vesting criteria
will be based on the average closing share price over the five
business days preceding the date of award (9.9p). No vesting will
occur if, over the three year vesting period, the compound growth
rate of the share price is below 10% pa growth (i.e. 33% over 3
years). At 10% pa growth over three years 25% of the award will
vest and, if 20% pa growth is achieved over the three years (i.e.
73% over 3 years), 100% of the awards will vest, with a linear
increment between 25% and 100%.
There will also be a performance underpin, such that the awards
would only vest to the extent that the Remuneration Committee
considers that the overall performance of the business across the
period justifies it. The share price at the third anniversary will
also be averaged across the preceding three month period to avoid
rewarding for short term spikes in performance. Clawback and malus
provisions will apply to the awards.
The issued share capital of the Company is 3,089,030,365 1p
ordinary shares.
This notification is made pursuant to Disclosure and
Transparency Rule 3.1.4.
