Directors’ Remuneration Policy Report (unaudited)
The following section sets out our Directors’ Remuneration Policy (the “Policy”). This Policy will apply to payments made from the next AGM of the Company which will be held on 25 November 2015.
The main aim of the Company’s Policy is to align the interests of Executive Directors with the Company’s strategic vision and the long-term creation of shareholder value. The Company aims to provide returns to shareholders through both organic and acquisitive growth. The Policy is intended to remunerate our Executive Directors competitively and appropriately for effective delivery of this and allows them to share in this success and the value delivered to shareholders. The Policy is based on a broad set of remuneration principles:-
