EMPLOYEE SHARE INCENTIVE SCHEMES

Details of awards in terms of the company’s share incentive schemes: 

Share Appreciation Right Scheme 2005

Under the share appreciation right scheme, participating employees are awarded the right to receive shares equal to the difference between the exercise price and the grant price, less income tax payable on such difference. The employee therefore participates in the after tax share price appreciation in the company. The vesting of the right is conditional on the achievement of Tongaat Hulett performance levels over a performance period.

The estimated fair value costing of these outstanding share appreciation rights was determined using the binomial tree valuation model and non-market performance conditions, based on the following significant inputs: 
 
Strike price  The grant price, as noted above. 
Expected option life  80 months (assume contractual plus a leaving percentage of 5%). 
Risk-free interest rate  8,51% (2015: 7,96%; 2014: 7,78%, 2013: 6,73%, 2012: 7,26%, 2011: 7,95% and 2010: 7,71%).
