Share Matching Scheme
The exercise of these options is in accordance with the rules of GBG's Share Matching Scheme (the "Scheme"). Under the Scheme, the executive directors and certain senior managers have the annual opportunity to elect to invest up to 20% of their annual salary and up to 80% of their annual bonus in ordinary shares at market price. Subject to their continued employment, the retention of these shares and the meeting of a demanding financial performance target, the investment will be matched on a gross basis by matching shares issued at an exercise price of 2.5 pence per share.
The principle qualification for vesting of the options detailed above was a growth in adjusted earnings per share ("EPS") of at least 25% per annum compounded over 3 financial years. The actual compound growth in EPS over the period was 31% per annum. The Scheme requires that the options are exercised within 1 year of vesting. The options vested on 8 June 2016 when the Group's annual results for the year ended 31 March 2016 were announced.
