Notes Expand
  1. Or at date of retirement or resignation if earlier.
  2. All options granted over ordinary shares. Rio Tinto plc - ordinary shares of 10p each stated in sterling; Rio Tinto Limited ordinary shares - stated in Australian dollars. Each option is granted over one share. The date of grant was 10 March 2008. The performance conditions for the SOP are detailed in Remuneration components.
  3. The closing price of Rio Tinto plc ordinary shares at 31 December 2008 was £14.90 (2007: £53.17) and the closing price of Rio Tinto Limited shares at 31 December 2008 was A$38.00 (2007: A$133.95). The high and low prices during 2008 of Rio Tinto plc and Rio Tinto Limited shares were £70.78 and £10.49 and A$156.00 and A$32.00 respectively.
  4. The option price represents the exercise price payable on the options. No amounts are unpaid on any shares allocated on the exercise of the options.
  5. Under the plans no options would be vested and unexercisable at the reporting date. The exercise of options is subject to restrictions contained in the 'Rules for dealing in Rio Tinto Securities'. Trading
    restrictions due to close periods, the unsolicited pre-conditional offer from BHP Billiton and the Chinalco strategic partnership have prevented executives from dealing for most of 2008 and 2009.
  6. The fair value per option, granted during 2008, at date of grant was as follows: Rio Tinto plc Share Savings Plan two year contract £3.46; three year contract 94p; four year contract £1.92 and five year contract 90p; Rio Tinto Limited Share Savings Plan three year contract A$5.14 and five year contract A$5.17. Rio Tinto plc Share Option Plan £20.63; Rio Tinto Limited Share Option Plan A$44.04.
  7. The value of options exercised during 2008 is calculated by multiplying the number of options exercised by the difference between the market price and the option price on date of exercise.
  8. No options lapsed for failure to satisfy a performance condition.
