  • Mark will also receive a contractual payment in respect of 1.5 days accrued but untaken holiday, and a payment of £33,240 for loss of contractual benefits. Mark will receive an employer pension contribution of £20,000, which has been requested to be paid in cash rather than into any nominated pension scheme.

  • Mark will receive a payment of £93,878 in respect of compensation for loss of office. This payment is in settlement of all potential claims arising out of his departure.

  • The Company will contribute towards Mark's reasonable legal fees in relation to his termination arrangements.
