Share alternative - equal to 25,000 shares with par value of P30
Cash alternative - cash payment equal to the market value of 20,000 shares
The grant is conditional upon the completion of three years of service. On grant date, on January 1, Year 1, the share price is P51. The share prices for the three-year vesting period are P54 on December 31, Year 1, P66 on December 31, Year 2 and P65 on December 31, Year 3.
