Both Partnership and Matching elements are registered in the name of the Trustee. (2) They had transferred 4,967 ordinary shares of 6 14//81 pence each from Lloyds TSB Registrars Corporate Nominee Limited AESOP1 (Allocated shares) to Lloyds TSB Registrars Corporate Nominee Limited AESOP2 (Unallocated shares). The transfer was made following the forfeiture of shares, under the rules of the SIP, by participants who have left the group since the last purchase and the shares had been used towards March's allocation of Matching shares. The Directors listed above, together with some 5,427 other employees, are participants in the SIP and are potentially interested in the remaining 680 shares held by Lloyds TSB Registrars Corporate Nominee Limited AESOP2 left following the purchase. The SIP operates as follows -- Each month the Trustee uses participants' contributions (which may not exceed £125 per participant per month) to purchase shares in the market. These shares are called 'Partnership Shares'. -- At the same time the Company allots to participants via the Trustee one 'Matching Share' for every two partnership shares purchased that month (up to a maximum of 20 matching shares per month). -- Participants may change their monthly savings rate whenever they wish. However, Directors and others bound by the Company's Securities Dealing Code (the 'Code') may not make such a change during a close period or when otherwise prohibited from dealing by the Code.
