Performance Share Plan 
 
Under the rules of the performance share plan, awards are subject to uplift for 
notional dividends made or paid during the performance period. Accordingly, the 
dividend shares shown below have been notionally added to and form part of the 
award. In respect of the interim dividend of 10.67 pence per share paid on 1 
February 2012, the number of additional shares granted has been calculated 
using the closing share price on 1 February 2012 of 609.00 pence per share. The 
figures reflect the maximum number of shares over which the option might be 
exercised. The actual number will depend upon the extent to which the 
established performance conditions are satisfied over the performance period. 
The awards are issued for nil consideration and may be exercised at nil cost to 
the participant.

Deferred Share Award Plan 
 
Under the rules of the deferred share award scheme (`the scheme') awards are 
subject to uplift for notional dividends made or paid during the vesting 
period. Accordingly the dividend shares shown below have been notionally added 
to and form part of the award. In respect of the interim dividend of 10.67 
pence per share paid on 1 February 2012, the number of additional shares 
awarded has been calculated using the closing share price on 1 February 2012 of 
609.00 pence per share. Under the terms of the scheme, awards will (which are 
structured as options to acquire shares in the company with a zero exercise 
price) be satisfied by using shares purchased in the market or by payment of a 
cash amount equal to the market value, on the date of exercise, of the shares 
(including dividend equivalent shares) held. Newly issued or treasury shares 
cannot be used to satisfy awards under this plan.  No directors of the company 
can participate in the scheme. The awards will normally become capable of 
exercise after the end of the vesting period and must be exercised within 90 
days thereafter. The ability to exercise an award is not subject to satisfying 
a performance target.
