Table 1:

  The following options/shares were awarded between 2008 and 2010 in terms of the company’s legacy
  1998 share scheme. The sale transactions were undertaken solely to settle the purchase price or loans
  repayable, and the tax due, on vesting together with the transaction costs, so that a material number of
