AIP

Annual Incentive Plan The Annual Incentive Plan, or AIP, is designed to reward you for your personal performance against individual objectives and your contribution to the delivery of short-term business performance goals. The AIP is reviewed each year to ensure the plan remains an attractive incentive and is clearly aligned with the goals of our business and the interests of our shareholders.

How the plan works The AIP provides an annual cash incentive linked to the Annual Operating Plan (‘the plan’). Performance relative to the plan is measured through a variety of business performance measures and individual business outcomes (IBOs) which support the delivery of the plan. These business and individual performance measures directly link the achievement of short-term business goals with individual reward. Target bonus opportunity You will have a ‘target opportunity’ expressed as a set percentage of salary which is your ‘on-target’ bonus. Bonus payment cap The maximum bonus payable under the scheme is 3x your target opportunity. Business performance measures A ‘business multiple’ is calculated for each part of the business and reflects performance against key measures relative to the annual operating plan. These are: Net sales value (NSV) Operating profit (OP) Cash (split between year-end and average cash) Cost of goods sold per equivalent unit (COGS/Eu) – Global Supply only. Business performance measures make up to 80% (depending on market) of the overall AIP calculation and are weighted as follows:

Market/country/region multiples (excluding Western Europe) There are three options1 to flex the weighting of business performance measures to suit individual market strategy. Option 1 will be the typical default. NSV

Delivering on-target performance A business multiple of 1.0x will usually be payable for delivering target for the full year for each business performance measure. Performance above target The ‘interval’ determines the additional level of performance required above target to achieve a 2.0x or more payout on each business performance measure. The potential payout for each individual measure is uncapped, unless any one of the measures falls below 1.0x, in which case each individual measure will be capped at 3.0x.

Minimum performance The ‘cliff’ is set at the minimum level of performance needed to achieve a bonus on each business performance measure. Performance below this level will result in a multiple of 0x for that measure. See graph below.

Performance underpin If the minimum cliff level of performance for either NSV or OP is not achieved, then a zero payout will result for both performance measures. In these circumstances, the Incentive Review Committee (IRC) may determine that a payment should be made if a market performance review finds that there are genuine mitigating circumstances for the performance.

Global supply multiple There is one structure for the global supply multiple. The relevant market multiple will apply to in-market supply roles. Global Total Global Supply Diageo Supply COGS/ OP Cash Eu 30
