The cash flow hedging reserve is used to record adjustments to revalue
cash flow hedges to fair or market value, where the derivative financial
instruments qualify for hedge accounting. Upon realisation of the
underlying hedged transactions in future financial years, these revaluation
adjustments are reversed from the cash flow hedging reserve and taken to
the income statements.

Note 25. Employee Ownership Plans
The Company has seven share and option plans available for employees and Directors of the Group: the Employees Share Plan; the Executive Option Plan;
the Long Term Incentive Share Plan; the Executive Retention Share Plan; the Non-Executive Directors’ Share Plan; the Non-Executive Directors’ Retirement
Share Trust and the Executive Salary Sacrifice Share Plan. Fully paid ordinary shares issued under these plans rank equally with all other existing fully paid
ordinary shares, in respect of voting and dividends rights and future bonus and rights issues.

Employees Share Plan

The Employees Share Plan provides employees with an opportunity to contribute up to 3% of their salary to acquire shares in the Company. The Plan is
administered by a trustee which acquires (and holds in trust) shares for the benefit of participants. These shares are acquired through issues of shares to
the trustee (the issue price is the weighted average price of a specified five day period prior to issue) or are purchased on market at the prevailing market
price; shares that have been forfeited under the terms of the Plan are also utilised. For every share acquired with amounts contributed by each participant,
a matching share is acquired by the trustee. These matching shares, which under normal circumstances vest with the employee after a period of two years
from their date of issue (acquisition or utilisation), are acquired with contributions made by the employing entities. Vesting of matching shares with
employees does not involve any performance hurdles.

Members of the Plan receive dividends for all shares held on their behalf by the trustee.

As at the end of the financial year, the total number of employees eligible to participate in the Plan was 15,666 (2006: 18,060).

All shares were purchased on market during the financial year. No shares were issued under the Plan during the financial year.
