Under the terms of the Performance Share Plan, the Share Options may be exercised from 2 March 2024 until 1 March 2031. The Share Options are also subject to clawback and malus provisions.

It is the expectation of the Company that the LPA Employee Benefit Trust (the "EBT") will satisfy the awards when exercised. In the event that the EBT does not satisfy the awards when exercised, the Company will do so through an issue of new ordinary shares to the Award Holders.

As a result of the grant of the Share Options, the total number of options in place for directors and employees of LPA is as follows:

 
 Number of Options   Exercise Price 
 540,000             36.00p
