Performance conditions
1. Adjusted Earnings Per Share Target
Up to 66.7% of the total LTIP awards will vest on the achievement of total
adjusted earnings per share ("EPS") for the three financial years ending 31
December 2020, 2021 and 2022 (the "Performance Condition Period") as shown in
the following table:

2022 ("EPS Target")
Below 523.4p No vesting
523.4p 25% of total LTIP award
586.0p 100% of total LTIP award
Achievement of the EPS Target between 523.4p and 586.0p will result in the LTIP
awards vesting on a straight-line basis and any entitlement to a fraction of an
Ordinary Share shall be rounded down.
2. Total Shareholder Return ("TSR") Target
Up to 33.3% of the total Awards will vest dependent upon the performance of the
Company's TSR measured against that of the FTSE250 over the Performance
Condition Period. 25% of the total LTIP award will vest at median performance
with 100% of the total LTIP award vesting at the 80th percentile. Vesting
between these points will be measured on a straight-line basis.
The Remuneration Committee notes that the XP Power closing share price at 31
December 2019 was GBP31.00 and on 3 March 2020, the date of the publication of
the final results for 2019, the share price was GBP32.50. The closing share price
on 21 April 2020, which was used to calculate the number of LTIP and Restricted
Share awards, was GBP30.90.
The LTIP contains provisions giving the Remuneration Committee the ability to
apply discretion to adjust any formulae and workings to reduce vesting levels
if this is deemed necessary to ensure pay-outs fully and properly reflect
overall performance and shareholder experience and in response to exceptional
negative events. Malus and clawback provisions as set out in the Company's
Remuneration Policy are also in place to reduce or recover the awards.
