Notification of Changes in Directors’ Interests
-------------------------------------------------------------
Executive Share Option Plan- Lapse of options
Options were granted to directors under the National Grid Executive Share Option Plan as follows:
|
Director |
Date of Grant |
Number of shares over which options granted |
|
Edward Astle |
6.9.2001 |
193,952 |
|
Steven Holliday |
18.6.2001 |
71,936 |
|
Mike Jesanis |
18.6.2001 |
51,169 |
|
Roger Urwin |
18.6.2001 |
133,214 |
|
Nick Winser |
18.6.2001 |
24,156 |
These options were subject to a performance condition which was required to be met as a condition of exercise. This performance condition required TSR, measured over a period of three years beginning with the financial year in which the option was granted, to be at least median compared to a comparator group of companies.
For these options granted in 2001, this performance condition was not satisfied at the end of the first three years of the performance period. It has subsequently been retested as at 31 March 2005 and 31 March 2006, and as a result the options have lapsed in full.
The total share interests of the above directors, following these changes, are:
|
1. |
Mr E M Astle |
590,885 |
|
2. |
Mr S J Holliday |
487,554 |
