<strong>Punch</strong> <strong>Taverns</strong> <strong>plc</strong><br />

<strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> and Financial Statements <strong>2011</strong><br />

<strong>Report</strong> on Directors’ remuneration continued<br />

Non-executive Directors’ fees<br />

All Non-executive Directors have specific terms of engagement and their remuneration is determined by the Board based upon<br />

recommendations from the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (or, in the case of the Chairman, is determined by the Committee<br />

based on recommendations from the Senior Independent Non-executive Director and the Chief Executive Officer) within the limits<br />

set by the Articles of Association and based on the median level of fees payable to peers in the same comparator group as that used<br />

for Executive Directors’ remuneration. Non-executive Directors cannot participate in any of the Group’s share incentive schemes or<br />

performance-based plans and are not eligible to join any of the Group’s pension schemes.<br />

It is the Board’s policy to take into account the following factors in determining the fees of the Non-executive Directors:<br />

• the median level of fees for similar positions in the market; and<br />

• the time commitment each Non-executive Director makes to the Group (through membership of the Audit and Risk, Remuneration<br />

and Nomination and Governance Committees).<br />

The following table sets out the current Non-executive fees:<br />

<strong>2011</strong>/12<br />

Company Chairman 1 £250,000<br />

Basic fee £42,000<br />

Senior Independent Non-executive Director £45,000<br />

Additional fees for chairing the Audit and Risk or Remuneration Committee £10,000<br />

Additional fees for chairing the Nomination and Governance Committee £5,000<br />

Stephen Billingham’s fee was set based on an assessment of the expected time commitment for the role and a market assessment of fee levels.<br />

Total shareholder return performance graph<br />

The graph shows the Company’s performance, measured by total shareholder return (TSR), compared with the FTSE 350 Travel and<br />

Leisure Index and the FTSE Small Cap Index (excluding investment trusts). The Committee considers these to be relevant indices for<br />

TSR comparison as the Company was a constituent of the FTSE 350 Travel and Leisure Index for the majority of the five-year period<br />

presented and, following the Spirit demerger, is now positioned in the FTSE Small Cap.<br />
