In addition to achieving strong organic growth in mixed economic conditions, we realised significant latent value from our PFI portfolio and started to invest this cash in growth markets, new sectors and strengthening the funding position of the pension scheme.In line with our growth strategy, we continued to expand our frontline services capability though the acquisition of a welfare-to-work business in May, a home healthcare business in December and in January 2013 a Middle East oil and gas services provider. Organically we have invested in new territories through our Equipment Services division and new markets for the Construction division, such as energy from waste, as well as creating a new Justice business unit. Justice remains an important market for us and while the appointment of a new Secretary of State for Justice in 2012 signalled a short-term delay in the outsourcing programme, there are clear indications this will lead to accelerated outsourcing activity in the medium term from which we expect to see opportunities emerging in 2013.The breadth and scope of our operations is of significant benefit to the business.

Our Construction division has been resilient, despite low demand in the UK and high levels of competition internationally, because of our continued focus on recurring business under framework contracts and our ability to innovate and differentiate ourselves from peers. Equipment Services, our most geographically diverse business, has experienced a wide range of local market conditions during the year. Active management of our global fleet has ensured that we have been well-placed to take advantage of the strongest markets, while making best use of our invested capital. We are now looking to increase levels of investment in this business as future demand progresses.During the year, we completed a major review of the Interserve brand, giving a better understanding of and a new emphasis on the unique strengths of the Company, which will help drive performance and improve the focus of our marketing. This is summarised by the phrase, “Ingenuity at Work”, which describes the intelligent approach our people take when designing solutions and dealing with the day-to-day challenges of meeting and hopefully exceeding, our customers’ expectations. Having redefined our vision and core values, we are engaged in a major communications programme across the business. We have developed plans for the imminent launch of a far-reaching and, in our view, bold sustainability strategy – SustainAbilities. This plan builds on our longstanding credentials in this increasingly important area: we have long recognised the need to develop not only financial capital, but also to look to areas such as environmental, social and knowledge ‘capitals’, to build a truly resilient, sustainable business. During the course of the year we have shaped this into a sustainability plan which underpins our corporate strategy.In addition, clear communication of both our brand and of SustainAbilities, will help ensure that potential customers and stakeholders have a better understanding of Interserve and the full extent of our capabilities. On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank all of our people for their continued hard work in bringing their ingenuity and commitment to providing great service to our customers and to furthering their individual as well as our corporate development. During the last 12 months the Company has won numerous awards, including Learning and Career Development from the British Institute of Facilities Management, gold and silver awards for health and safety from RoSPA, the UK Excellence Award, the British Quality Foundation’s Achievement Award for Leadership, Project of the Year Award from the Chartered Institute of Building and the National Engineering Award, presented by the Association for Project Safety. A number of Board changes were announced in January which were brought about by the retirements of David Paterson and David Trapnell. I would like to thank them both for their long years of excellent service to the Company, and to welcome their successors, Anne Fahy as non-executive director to the Group Board and George Franks and Ian Renhard as members of the Executive Board. We remain confident in the delivery of our strategy and our medium-term outlook and we are therefore recommending an increased final dividend of 14.1p (2011: 13.0p), bringing the total dividend for the year to 20.5p (2011: 19.0p), an increase of 7.9 per cent. The final dividend will be paid on 20 May 2013 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 5 April 2013.Lord BlackwellChairman27 February 2013INtERsERvE ANNuAL REpORt 2012 OvERvIEW CHAIRMAN’s stAtEMENt 03 OvERvIEW gOvERNANCE BusINEss REvIEW fINANCIAL stAtEMENts OvERvIEW8504 Interserve AR 2013 Chairmans Statement_5 CS5_5 tp.indd 319/03/2013 15:41OurbusinessHOwwecreatesHareHOldervalueinterserveOFFersGOOdPrOsPectsFOrlOnG-terMvalueandGrOwtH,underPinnedbYastrOnGbalancesHeetandcasHFlOwswHicHenableanattractivedividendYield.OurexPertise•Designingbespokesolutionsforourclientsacrossarangeofservicesfrominfrastructuretofacilitiesmanagementandfrommajorconstructionprojectstocomplexformworkprojects.•Ouraddedvaluecomesfrom:•Anintegratedapproach,leveragingourexperiencetodeliverarangeofsupportservicesandconstruction-combiningend-to-enddesignandconsultancy.•Ensuringsustainablegrowthisatthecoreofourstrategyandbusinessmodeltodrivefurthersuccess.•Beingflexibleandresponsivetotheneedsofourclients.•Nurturingandeffectivemanagementofacomplexsupplychain,aspartofanoverallcontractdeliveryapproach.•Identifyingandcarefullyassessingcommercialopportunitiesthatofferthepotentialofcreatinglong-termreturns.strenGtHandresilience•Thecombinationofourbusiness’sworkingcapitalprofilesensuresahighoverallconversionofprofittocash–insulatingusthrougheconomiccycles.•FurtherstrengtheningofourbalancesheetthroughrealisinglatentvaluefromourPFIportfolio.•Diversifyingearnings,bothgeographicallyandthroughthebusinessmix.•Strongorganicgrowthaugmentedbyacquisitions,eachagoodfitwithouroverallcorporatestrategy.•Anemphasisonlong-termframeworkcontracts,loweringtheriskassociatedwiththeconstructionsector.•Ourexposuretoriskininternationalmarketsiscontainedbyoperatingthroughstronglocalpartnerships,usingtriedandtestedmethodsanddeployingkeypeopleintoourinternationaloperations.•WehavefurtherreducedourpensionriskbyutilisingthevalueofourPFIinvestments.•Strongrelationshipswithassociatecompaniesacrosstheworldlendweighttoouroverallpropositionandextendouroperationalcapabilities.•Theskillsandexperienceofourglobalworkforceallowustodeliverourpromisetoclientsandcustomerseveryday.sectOrs(BYCONSOLIDATEDREVENUE)13%HealtH20%deFence7%industrY9%central/lOcalGOvt16%inFrastructure21%cOMMerce10%educatiOn4%JusticeOur business HOw we create sHareHOlder value interserve OFFers GOOd PrOsPects FOr lOnG-terM value and GrOwtH, underPinned bY a strOnG balance sHeet and casH FlOws wHicH enable an attractive dividend Yield.Our exPertise• Designing bespoke solutions for our clients across a range of services – from infrastructure to facilities management and from major construction projects to complex formwork projects.• Our added value comes from:• An integrated approach, leveraging our experience to deliver a range of support services and construction -

I am pleased with the continued progress we have made against our stated strategic objectives. We have grown revenue and profits and continue to build a strong future workload.In the UK, we have made good progress in spite of the economic environment, notably in our Support Services division, where we have grown revenue and remain on track to meet our margin target of five per cent by the end of 2013. Overseas we continue to build our support services business and we will look to continue this trend in 2013.The UK construction industry has faced challenges over the year, but our business here has shown good resilience and we continue to win work, growing future workload to £6.3 billion. Internationally, our construction business has shown a mixed performance, experiencing varying demand in different countries. Latterly we have started to see positive signs of recovery in the UAE, as well as signs of emerging infrastructure development in Oman and Qatar. Revenue and margins continue to improve in our Equipment Services business, which we have achieved through intelligent management of our global fleet, a timely pricing review and accessing new, attractive markets.10 Interserve annual report 2012 BusIness revIew CHIef exeCutIve’s statement (Q&a)CHIef exeCutIve’s statement (Q&a)adrIan rIngrose CHIef exeCutIveStrategically, we have made good progress in growing our business as planned, realising the latent value in our PFI portfolio to reinvest in future growth. During the year we increased our capacity for the delivery of services direct to the citizen, firstly in welfare with our acquisition of BEST (now Interserve Working Futures) and in the health sector with Advantage Healthcare. 2 How are you performIng agaInst Company strategy? Our strategy is to build strong core businesses, expand internationally and expand the scope of our core businesses. We have made good progress against all three aspects of this in 2012 and expect to see further progress in 2013. We are ambitious and optimistic about our medium-term growth potential. By crystallising value in our PFI assets we have further strengthened our balance sheet and are well placed to exploit opportunities for growth in line with our strategy. In 2012 we have done this both by building our capability in the justice market, and also through the acquisition of BEST and Advantage Healthcare, expanding our frontline service capability and exploiting adjacent markets.Our UK construction business has not only focused on long-term commercial structures such as framework agreements, but also continues to innovate with technologies such as PassivHaus and our own proprietary construction system - Podsolve. The UK business has also expanded the scope of its operations in attractive growth areas such as the energy from waste sector. Overseas we have developed our specialist joinery and interior fit-out operations in Qatar and UAE and remain well placed for infrastructure development in the region. Support Services in the UK has delivered strong revenue growth of 11 per cent based on the ongoing need for government and businesses to increase efficiencies and maximise effectiveness in difficult economic conditions. Overseas we continue to expand our capability, notably in our provision of services to the oil and gas industry, both through work-winning, but also with the acquisition of TOCO at the turn of the year.Equipment Services is our most global business and continues to expand its geographic reach, establishing new branch locations in India, Chile, Panama and latterly Kazakhstan. In addition we are also exporting to less developed markets in Central Africa, Iraq and the Caspian region, moving our equipment fleet to follow demand and capture new opportunities. 3 wHat are your plans for 2013? We will continue to build our core businesses, access adjacent markets and develop new opportunities for growth. At the start of the year, we acquired TOCO, which will enhance our existing capabilities in the provision of services to the oil and gas sector. The strength of our balance sheet leaves us well-placed to exploit further growth opportunities both in the UK and overseas. In December, the UK government announced PF2 and reasserted its commitment to infrastructure building projects, notably through a schools building programme. Both of these developments are positive signs for Interserve and play to our strengths of experience and innovation. We expect to see further outsourcing opportunities from both the private and public sector, through a combination of macroeconomic pressures and increasing demand for public services from a growing and ageing population. Developing and delivering our frontline capability will be a focus in areas such as health, welfare and justice, building on our 2012 activities. The justice market remains an important opportunity for Interserve, with the UK government’s announcement of a ‘rehabilitation revolution’ in December 2012 and a clear commitment to outsourcing services.We look forward with confidence to making further progress against our strategy in 2013 and beyond.Interserve annual report 2012 BusIness revIew CHIef exeCutIve’s statement (Q&a) 11 overvIew governanCe BusIness revIew fInanCIal statements overvIewChanging lives through sustainable jobsWelfare to WorkInterserve is working with its partners to make a difference to people’s lives, by helping them to find long-term employment.The Work Programme is the UK Government’s largest and most ambitious Government back-to-work initiative ever commissioned and caters for the long-term unemployed, or those with substantial difficulties in finding work. The programme brings together many of the best features of previous initiatives and combines them with some new approaches, all of which are designed to move more people into sustained employment. We are proud to be involved in the delivery of this flagship programme, delivered across West Yorkshire through interserve Working futures and in the South West and Wales through a joint venture with the Rehab Group called Rehab Jobfit.Our partnership with Work Programme providers blends their existing expertise in providing training, employment, health and social care and commercial services with our track record of large-scale service delivery to Government and management of supply chains.ingenuity at Work12 interserve annual report 2012 business revieW strategiC overvieWStrategic OverviewIn building our core businesses we benefit from long-term client relationships, through framework agreements, repeat business and account growth. We continue to reinvest in new operating models, business development and new asset purchases. We also continue to innovate through new products and technologies. This is reflected in our strong work-winning, notably in our UK operations and has also played a major part in providing a strong platform for growth.We have been expanding the scope of our operations by taking our core skills into new areas, notably in extending our offering in outsourced public services, in areas such as health and welfare-to-work and energy from waste infrastructure. We have also expanded our service offering to the oil and gas sector through the acquisition of TOCO in Oman, enabling us to service our clients over a wider geographic footprint. We continue to target growth in Equipment Services, increasing our investment in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Chile and Colombia and further expanding our reach through export opportunities to countries such as Kazakhstan and Iraq.We are a strong, sustainable and ambitious business and as we continue to develop we will invest in the training and development of our people and the management of complex supply chains. The development and imminent launch of our far-reaching SustainAbilities plan will further differentiate the Company through our approach to sustainable communities and the environments in which we operate. Our corporate strategy and the continued evolution of our capabilities place us well to meet both the risks and the opportunities that the future brings. grOup OutlOOkWe have confidence in our ability to make further progress in 2013. We expect Support Services to continue its strong progress with margins trending towards our medium-term targets.

Group Services’ costs in 2012 were £19.1 million (2011: £20.4 million).support serviCesSupport Services provides a broad range of outsourced services to public and private sector clients, predominantly in the UK but also increasingly in the Middle East, the majority of which we integrate and deliver ourselves.future WorkloadOur future workload comprises forward orders and pipeline.

Revenue growth was primarily due to our success in developing our relationships with existing customers, but also reflected the benefits of continued strong work winning in current and prior years. This strong performance reflects our core capabilities to provide innovative and cost effective solutions, to help customers invest more efficiently and to develop existing relationships, thereby leading to an increased scope of activity. This is exemplified by our long-standing relationship which, in partnership with Alliance Boots, we have grown from a contract to provide cleaning services to 320 stores into a total facilities management (TFM) service for eight office locations and cleaning services across more than 1,000 stores in the UK and Ireland. We have continued to improve our margins in this division through a combination of investment in new systems and processes, a rationalisation of our organisational structures and a further drive to increase procurement efficiency. These activities, together with the benefits of increasing scale are also contributing to our continued progress towards our target of exiting 2013 with a margin of 5 per cent.The business has performed well in winning work during the year, with a number of significant contract wins with customers such as ScottishPower, Carphone Warehouse, East Thames Group, West Yorkshire Police Authority, London Borough of Southwark, London Universities Purchasing Consortium, The Environment Agency and the Defence Infrastructure Organisation.As a result future workload for the division increased to £5.2 billion in 2012 (2011: £4.5 billion), a strong platform for future years. We believe that demand for public services will continue to accelerate from a growing and ageing population, and that we are only now beginning to see the long-anticipated shift in thinking that will lead to the more widespread use of outsourcing as the most efficient way to maintain such services while reducing unit costs.Anticipating the acceleration of this trend, we have sought to position ourselves to take advantage of outsourcing in frontline services. To date we have made strategic investments in justice, welfare-to-work and healthcare. During the year we increased our investment in the provision of frontline welfare services through the acquisition of Yorkshire-based BEST (now renamed Interserve Working Futures). Combined with our existing joint venture, Rehab Jobfit, which operates in Wales and the South West, we are now one of the largest providers of training and work-placement services for the long-term unemployed, principally through the Government’s flagship Work Programme.In December we acquired Advantage Healthcare which provides community healthcare services including case management, social care, clinical and nursing services, for Primary Care Trusts (PCTs), private clients and through GP referrals. Our entry into the community healthcare market, which complements our existing offering to healthcare clients, anticipates the increasing demand for more flexible and cost effective service provision in this sector. The increasing range of our capabilities and the growing complexity of customers’ requirements were exemplified in the Leicestershire NHS Trust estate management contract win, announced in September. This is notable because of both its scale and the scope of services involved and also through its innovative relationship across three separate NHS Trusts. The contract comprises a full suite of support services ranging from facilities and estate management to strategic consultancy and advice, marking a new and radical approach leveraging the collective scale and rationalising the combined assets of the three Trusts. It will support three acute hospitals and a range of health facilities including mental health units, primary care facilities, and community and district hospitals in the area.In addition we have developed organically a new capability in the justice market to meet the demand from Government for greater private sector involvement in the prison and probation services market. Strategically these developments extend our offering in ‘frontline services’, building on the Company’s extensive experience and capability in outsourced government services, where we see significant and ongoing potential for growth.outlookWe expect the business to continue its strong progress as we expand into new markets, deliver more for our current customers, win new client contracts and execute our services more efficiently through our margin improvement programme.internationalThis business provides fabrication, maintenance, turnaround services and training to the oil and gas industry and hard and soft facilities management services across a broad range of markets across the Middle East. 16 interserve annual report 2012 business revieW operational revieWIn the period we continued to build on our offering, winning more turnaround and long-term services contracts with both current and new clients including: Oryx (extension to onsite mechanical maintenance on their gas-to-liquid plant), Shell Pearl (five-year services contract and turnaround services), Dolphin Energy (five-year contract for plant modification works and maintenance services both on and offshore) and Punj Lloyd Limited (fabrication, installation and pre-commissioning of pipework for a polysilicon plant). We aim to expand our engineering services and facilities management activities in the Middle East, where economic progress is increasingly generating requirements for outsourced services. This has generated opportunities for us to harness the expertise gained from our outsourcing experience across many sectors in the UK with our knowledge of Gulf Cooperation Council markets. In January 2013 we expanded the footprint of our activities with the acquisition of TOCO, an Oman-based business specialising in fabrication, maintenance and repair services for oil and gas refineries and offshore facilities. The acquisition extends Interserve’s service offering in Oman, a key growth market offering c.US$2.5 billion of oil, gas and power contracts per annum as well as growing our offering across the region. outlookWe expect revenues and profits to progress well, driven by the petrochemical sector with margins trending towards our medium-term targets. We are intent on building a sizeable support services presence in this important region.ConstruCtionIn the UK and internationally we offer design and construction services in the creation of a broad range of buildings and infrastructure. The majority of our UK revenue comes through long-term framework agreements and from repeat business with blue-chip clients, with over three-quarters of this activity in the public and utilities sectors. We operate from a network of regional offices, specialising in mid-sized contracts.In the Middle East, where we have been active for over 30 years, our client base is more oriented towards the private sector. However, drawing on the market positioning of our local partners, our businesses are also characterised by a focus on recurring work from long-term relationships.united kingdom Despite challenging conditions, 2012 was a year of continued successful performance, innovation and new market development. The division’s contribution to Total Operating Profit fell by £3.4 million to £14.6 million at a margin of 2.0 per cent, reflecting increased competitive pressures in line with our expectations. We continue to expect margins to trend between 1.5 to 2.0 per cent over the medium term.During the year we have worked hard with local authority customers to address their twin problems of affordable build costs and sustainable running costs. Richmond Hill Primary School, which achieved the groundbreaking PassivHaus certification, exemplifies this well: the school will use up to 80 per cent less energy than a conventionally built equivalent facility. We have also extended our reach into targeted growth markets, such as energy-from-waste, completing the design and build of a plant in Westbury, Wiltshire and winning a £150 million contract with Viridor for the construction of Glasgow City Council’s new Residual Waste Treatment facility. The contract involves the design and build of a facility to treat up to 200,000 tonnes p.a. of waste via recycling, anaerobic digestion and energy recovery by gasification. Our sustainability credentials are becoming an increasingly important element of our offering alongside our more established operational and project finance capabilities, as evidenced by our success with West Yorkshire Police (in a £150 million PFI project to design, build, finance and operate three police facilities). Our proposal for this contract involved a significant amount of investment in community projects, generating local jobs and training and exemplified our ability to make places and deliver services that enhance peoples’ lives. results summary:20122011ChangeRevenue- UK£737.2m£731.1m+0.8%- International*£201.6m£223.7m-9.9%Contribution to Total Operating Profit£28.9m£34.6m-16.5%- UK£14.6m£18.0m-18.9%- International*£14.3m£16.6m-13.9%Operating margin (UK)2.0%2.5%-0.50% ptsOperating margin (International)6.5%8.4%-1.90% pts*Share of associatesinterserve annual report 2012 business revieW operational revieW 17 overvieW governanCe business revieW finanCial statements overvieWThese skills, together with our traditional ability to tackle complex construction challenges, have also been brought to bear in our successful proposals for the refurbishment and renovation of 200-year old buildings at Advocate’s Close, Edinburgh. The new mixed-use development will comprise serviced apartments, restaurants, a bistro/bar and offices/retail units revitalising an area formerly occupied by the City of Edinburgh Council. In addition to the contracts mentioned above, we have enjoyed other successes, including: a multi-million pound project with Jaguar Land Rover to build a circa 65,000 square metre facility in Wolverhampton to produce a family of all-new advanced technology, low emission 4-cylinder Jaguar Land Rover petrol and diesel engines; further work under existing framework agreements with the NHS in England, Scotland and Wales, and with National Grid; together with numerous other contracts for English Heritage, St Luke’s Hospice, and the Highways Agency. As a result, our future workload as at 31 December 2012 has remained at £0.9 billion.outlookWe expect the UK construction market to continue to remain challenging during 2013, before a resumption of gradual growth from 2014, stimulated by increased government spending on infrastructure and some recovery in private sector investment. However, we have a strong order book and continue to diversify the business to position ourselves for growth across an expanding set of market segments.international Both volumes and profits continued to be affected by short-term client caution. Nevertheless we were able to continue to maintain our shape and readiness for an increase in demand, which we expect to materialise in the coming years given the underlying economic strength of the Middle East region. Against this overall backdrop of restraint, we are beginning to see cause for medium-term optimism. For example, in the UAE, we are starting to see an improvement in trading conditions, and during the year we won a number of sizeable contracts with both new and existing clients. These included: infrastructure projects such as the £11 million Fujairah internal roads system and the £6 million regional headquarters for the Habib Bank AG Zurich; shopping centres, such as the £49 million Jumeirah Beach Village and the £38 million Fujairah City Centre; and a £28 million contract for General Electric for the construction of Emirates’ Engine Overhaul Facility. Our fit-out business continues to see demand with the winning of numerous contracts including the Saint Regis Hotel in Abu Dhabi and the Bab Al Bahr Hotel in Ajman. In Qatar, which was more subdued, we are well prepared for the anticipated increase in infrastructure investment in the run-up to the 2022 World Cup. We won an important contract to fit out the main halls and 17 lounges at the new Doha International Airport which will compete as a new major international hub. Fit-out continues to be an important market for us, with prestigious contracts secured for the Private Engineers Office and the Al Deeble Tower in Doha. The planned new city of Lusail, to the north of Doha, is starting to generate demand for construction services. Over the year we have started to deliver infrastructure projects including the construction, installation and commissioning of two substations for Hyosung worth approximately £30 million and chilled water piping diversions for Ashghal who are building the Expressway in Lusail. Our ability to deliver complex projects is well exemplified by the Doha West Sewage Treatment works project for Ashghal, where we built a new plant, refurbished the existing plant and constructed two storage lagoons. The project was completed three months early and on budget. In Dubai we refurbished the existing ‘Gold Souk’, in the Dubai Mall, for Chalhoub Group into a bespoke 9,000m2 shoe district, comprising 40 designer outlets.Market conditions in Oman have been broadly stable with good levels of activity in industrial development and defence. Notable contracts included building a 132KV grid substation for Arabian Industries and a substantial package of works for the new Military Training College in Seeb. Our fit-out and joinery businesses have also performed well, with the completion of the flagship Sohar Court complex, which we also built, a particular highlight. outlookWe expect that in the short term demand will remain subdued; however, growth rates in the region are still attractive in the medium term as countries need to improve their infrastructure, we move closer to the 2022 World Cup and economic growth in the region shows signs of improvement. equipment serviCesEquipment Services designs bespoke engineering solutions and provides temporary structural equipment (formwork and falsework) for complex infrastructure and building projects.

Our largest project in the region is the provision of equipment to the Roots Group Arabia contract at the Mecca Grand Mosque, to which we have delivered approximately 15,000 tonnes of equipment over the last three years. In Jeddah our equipment is being used to build the six-lane raised approach roads to the new airport and several major infrastructure projects in Riyadh are continuing to support a good performance. In Oman, the business is performing well and we are strongly positioned with a high market share, currently undertaking a number of important projects, including: the redevelopment of Muscat and Salahlah airports, where in each case the innovative climbing formwork system, Tru-lift, is being used in the construction of new control towers.In the UAE there are early signs that more substantial infrastructure projects are coming to market after a lengthy period of stagnation. In November we won a prestigious contract for the Presidential Palace in Abu Dhabi, building momentum from earlier wins with customers such as Larson & Toubro and Seobon Construction. In Qatar the market remains subdued although increased bidding activity on planned major infrastructure projects (such as the underground light rail system at Lusail) points to early indications of improvement. Following a restructuring, our South African business saw much improved year-on-year performance and is well-placed to profit from growing signs of a pick-up in demand driven by civil infrastructure growth in areas such as roads and power stations. We are continuing to provide significant amounts of equipment to the Gruluk Bunker, in connection with a new power station near Lephalale in Limpopo province. We also won a number of important new contracts including Flicksburg reservoir with Ruwacon and the supply of shoring equipment to the Mhlatshane waste water treatment works for Cyclone Construction in Kwazulu Natal. Australasia and Far EastPerformance across the region was underpinned by infrastructure, major liquified natural gas and mining projects. In Australia this included Gorgon in Western Australia and three other liquified natural gas plants on Curtis Island, Queensland. Although the pace of investment in the natural resources sector may have slowed somewhat in recent months, and activity in commercial hubs remains low, Australia nevertheless represents an important and relatively resilient market in which we have a strong market-leading position. Following the substantial earthquake damage in Christchurch, we have experienced significant demand for both shoring and formwork, which has driven a very strong result from our operation in New Zealand.Growth in Hong Kong has been driven by a strong programme of infrastructure investment, including the $1.5 billion cruise ship terminal development and the Kowloon 810a/b public transport project, which includes the development of an integrated interchange for underground and overground trains, a bus station and a taxi hub.We also had a strong year in the Philippines, with demand being driven by projects such as the new Philippines Arena and Stadium complex. During the year we developed our international centre of excellence for design in Manila, drawing on the extensive labour pool of relevant skills in the Philippines and servicing our business across the Far East and in Europe.EuropeDemand was generally subdued, reflecting the continued pressures on the construction sector, both in the UK and mainland Europe. We implemented a number of cost-reduction and restructuring measures to ensure that our operations were appropriately sized for lower volumes. We undertook a number of important projects such as the support of the stadium roof in the Stade Vélodrome in Marseille and also in Spain, where we are working with Horta Cosalda as plans to increase stadia capacity ahead of UEFA’s Euro 2016 tournament begin to emerge.IntErsErvE AnnuAl rEport 2012 busInEss rEvIEW opErAtIonAl rEvIEW 19 ovErvIEW govErnAncE busInEss rEvIEW FInAncIAl stAtEMEnts ovErvIEW8504 Interserve AR 2013 Operational tp Review_7.indd 1919/03/2013 15:01americasIn the US, the construction market has begun to show signs of recovery with both volumes and prices improving towards the end of the year. Prior to that, conditions were difficult, to which we responded with a number of organisational changes. Elsewhere, market conditions were much more favourable, and we have increased our investment in Chile and Panama and are planning market entry into Colombia. Chile, in particular, is growing strongly, driven by mining demand, and we have opened our third branch in the country, in Copiapo, to service the natural resources extraction industries in that region.outlookWe expect Equipment Services’ revenues to continue to improve with margins trending towards the medium-term target.investmentsInvestments is responsible for two broad areas: directing the Group’s PFI activities (leading the bid process and managing equity investments); and taking the primary role in driving the Group’s strategic development, pursuing acquisitions, exploring new opportunities and leading major, complex bids in market sectors which require cross-divisional involvement. The costs of these central functions are allocated to the Group Centre segment. The results summarised below reflect the performance of our equity investments in PFI projects.results summary:20122011ChangeContribution to Total Operating Profit£6.6m£6.0m+10.0%Interest received on subordinated debt investments£5.4m£4.0m+35.0%£12.0m£10.0m+20.0%Exceptional profit from PFI disposals£110.9m-Our strategy for our PFI portfolio is to optimise the cash flows of projects by intelligent operational and financial management. When we can add no further value, we seek to realise the latent value that we have created and to reinvest in new strategic opportunities.During 2012 we undertook a series of three transactions to unlock the significant value in our increasingly mature portfolio: In June and July we announced the sale of half of our holding in the UCLH project to the CFIG Fund, the exercise of our pre-emption rights in relation to a co-investor’s holding, and the onward sale of this holding to the CFIG Fund. In October we sold a minority stake in a portfolio of 19 PFI investments to Dalmore Investment Fund and in December we announced the transfer of £55 million of the remaining PFI assets into the Company’s pension scheme (a transaction which completed in January 2013).The combined effect of these transactions was to realise a total value of £174.3 million, £119.3 million of which was in cash. We intend to utilise these cash proceeds (and some of the capacity in our current debt facilities) on further strategic investments in growth markets or sectors, both in our existing businesses and by acquisitions. Notwithstanding these disposals, the PFI/Private Finance 2 (PF2) market remains an important area for Interserve, both as a source of construction and facilities management contracts, and for the available returns on our equity and debt investments. In 2012 our PFI equity investments made a total contribution to pre-tax profit of £12.0 million. We continue to seek out, and to win new contracts, such as the West Yorkshire Police PFI, won during 2012. This will involve the construction of two new divisional headquarters, custody suites and a specialist operational training facility (with firearm ranges and public-order and driver training facilities), and the provision of FM services for 25 years thereafter. We anticipate that the total value of our construction and FM services will be approximately £150 million. At 31 December 2012 we had a remaining portfolio of two PFI assets (31 December 2011: 21), comprising Addiewell Prison, which is operational and West Yorkshire Police, which is under construction. Additionally, preferred bidder negotiations are ongoing at a third project, Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in Merseyside.outlookThe recently announced private finance initiative, PF2, and the announcement of a resumption in the schools’ capital programme, together with a further £5 billion of other infrastructure investment are positive developments. Given our strong track record in delivering, operating and financing PPP initiatives, we expect to enlarge our project portfolio over the next few years.20 interserve annual report 2012 business revieW operational revieWinterserve annual report 2012 business revieW operational revieW 21 overvieW governanCe business revieW finanCial statements overvieWComplex formWork solution for makkah mosque in meCCaIn a mammoth undertaking, our global formwork and shoring experts, RMD Kwikform, completed the design and delivery of over 15,000 tonnes of formwork and shoring solutions to main contractor Roots Group Arabia, for the expansion of the landmark Makkah Mosque in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.Situated next to the Islamic holy shrine of the Prophet Mohammed, the project win provides facilities for 2.5 million people during their pilgrimage.

In addition, the management of such contracts entails potential risks including mis-pricing, inaccurate specification, failure to appreciate risks being taken on, poor control of costs or of service delivery, sub-contractor insolvency and failure to recover, in part or in full, payments due for work undertaken.In PFI/PPP contracts, which can last for periods of around 30 years and typically require the Special Purpose Companies (SPCs) established by us and one or more third parties to provide for the future capital replacement of assets, there is a risk that such a company may fail to anticipate adequately the cost or timing of the necessary works or that there may be increases in costs, including wage inflation, beyond those anticipated.AAAmmmooonnnggg ooouuurrr mmmiiitttiiigggaaatttiiiooonnn ssstttrrraaattteeegggiiieeesss aaarrreee tttaaarrrgggeeetttiiinnnggg wwwooorrrkkk wwwiiittthhhiiinnn,,, ooorrr cccooommmpppllleeemmmeeennntttaaarrryyy tttooo,,, ooouuurrr eeexxxiiissstttiiinnnggg cccooommmpppeeettteeennnccciiieeesss,,, ttthhheee fffooosssttteeerrriiinnnggg ooofff lllooonnnggg---ttteeerrrmmm rrreeelllaaatttiiiooonnnssshhhiiipppsss wwwiiittthhh cccllliiieeennntttsss,,, ooopppeeerrraaatttiiinnnggg aaannn aaauuuttthhhooorrriiitttyyy mmmaaatttrrriiixxx fffooorrr ttthhheee aaapppppprrrooovvvaaalll ooofff lllaaarrrgggeee bbbiiidddsss,,, mmmooonnnttthhhlllyyy mmmaaannnaaagggeeemmmeeennnttt rrreeepppooorrrtttiiinnnggg wwwiiittthhh kkkeeeyyy pppeeerrrfffooorrrmmmaaannnccceee iiinnndddiiicccaaatttooorrrsss aaattt cccooonnntttrrraaacccttt aaannnddd bbbuuusssiiinnneeessssss llleeevvveeelll,,, ttthhheee uuussseee ooofff mmmooonnnttthhhlllyyy cccooosssttt---vvvaaallluuueee rrreeecccooonnnccciiillliiiaaatttiiiooonnn,,, sssuuupppppplllyyy ccchhhaaaiiinnn mmmaaannnaaagggeeemmmeeennnttt,,, tttaaakkkiiinnnggg rrreeessspppooonnnsssiiibbbiiillliiitttyyy fffooorrr ttthhheee aaadddmmmiiinnniiissstttrrraaatttiiiooonnn ooofff ooouuurrr PPPFFFIII///PPPPPPPPP SSSPPPCCCsss,,, ssseeecccuuurrriiinnnggg bbboooaaarrrddd rrreeeppprrreeessseeennntttaaatttiiiooonnn iiinnn ttthhheeemmm aaannnddd eeennnsssuuurrriiinnnggg ttthhhaaattt pppeeerrriiiooodddiiiccc bbbeeennnccchhhmmmaaarrrkkkiiinnnggg aaannnddd///ooorrr mmmaaarrrkkkeeettt ttteeessstttiiinnnggg aaarrreee iiinnncccllluuudddeeeddd iiinnn lllooonnnggg---ttteeerrrmmm cccooonnntttrrraaaccctttsss...22 interserve annual report 2012 Business revieW principal risks and uncertaintiesprincipal risks and uncertaintiesWe operate in a business environment in which a number of risks and uncertainties exist.

International Support Services grew its volumes by 21 per cent as these services become an increasingly important part of our activities. Despite challenging market conditions, UK Construction maintained revenues at £737.2 million but our International Construction activities, in line with our expectations, reported a small decline in revenues. Equipment Services delivered a 9 per cent increase in revenues, following a 10 per cent increase last year, as it continues on its path to recovery.A full-year operating margin on gross revenues of 3.4 per cent (2011: 3.2 per cent) again reflects a stronger second half than first half with an operating margin of 3.7 per cent (H1 2012: 3.1 per cent). Within this, the operating margin at UK Support Services strengthened from 3.4 per cent in the first half to 4.5 per cent in the second half, reflecting the benefits of ongoing operational efficiency improvements and the emerging scale benefits of increased revenue. The full-year operating margin at 4.0 per cent (2011: 3.6 per cent) provides further evidence of the significant progress made in our Support Services operations in the UK as we track towards the medium-term target of 5 per cent operating margins. Our International Support Services business delivered a healthy, but reduced, margin of 12.8 per cent (2011: 15.1 per cent) on significantly increased volumes. In line with expectations, UK Construction margins at 2.0 per cent (2011: 2.5 per cent) have reverted to near long-term norms whilst margins in our International Construction operations have declined from 8.4 per cent to 6.5 per cent on volumes down 10 per cent in increasingly competitive global markets. Equipment Services delivered increased full-year margins, on increased activity levels, of 9.6 per cent (2011: 8.8 per cent) resulting in the anticipated return to full-year growth. Second-half margins in this division returned to double-digits at 10.7 per cent (H2 2011: 9.6 per cent) with a further recovery towards medium-term margin expectations of 15 per cent expected over the coming years.Average and closing exchange rates used in the preparation of these results were:Average ratesClosing rates2012201120122011US dollar1.591.601.621.55Qatar Rial5.795.845.895.63UAE Dirham5.835.885.945.68Movements in exchange rates during the year had no material impact on the results of the Group.FInAncIAl revIeW Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 busIness revIeW FInAncIAl revIeW 25Investment revenue And FInAnce costsThe net interest charge for the year of £2.0 million can be analysed as follows:£million20122011Net interest on Group debt(6.6)(6.3)Interest receivable from PFI sub-debt5.44.0Pensions related items: Expected return on Scheme assets32.035.3 Interest cost on pension obligations(32.8)(34.0)Group net interest charge(2.0)(1.0) The interest cost on Group debt appears high, relative to the amounts of drawn debt. This is due to the high proportion of fixed costs relating to the amortisation of upfront arrangement fees and the accelerated amortisation of arrangement fees relating to the previous debt facility, together with a commitment fee payable as a percentage of undrawn committed facilities.Interest receivable on sub-debt increased to £5.4 million (2011: £4.0 million) reflecting the increasing operational maturity of the PFI investment portfolio and increasing associated returns. Transactions disposing of the majority of the assets that generated these returns were completed before the year end or shortly thereafter and as a consequence returns of this nature are expected to be materially reduced in the coming year. It is anticipated that this reduction in income will be more than offset by the benefits of reinvesting the cash proceeds.A lower assumed rate of return on Scheme assets of 4.9 per cent (2011: 6.0 per cent), reflecting generally depressed equity and bond markets, resulted in a reduced interest credit to the income statement of £32.0 million (2011: £35.3 million) despite actual returns on assets exceeding this expectation by £17.7 million in the year. This was partially offset by the reduced interest cost on liabilities resulting from a lower assumed discount rate of 4.4 per cent (2011: 4.8 per cent). The net impact of these two pension-related items was a (non-cash) net interest cost of £0.8 million in 2012 (2011: £1.3 million credit).tAxAtIonThe tax charge for the year of £11.2 million represents an effective rate of 6.1 per cent on total Group profit before taxation. The factors underlying this effective rate are shown in the table below:20122011£millionProfittaxrateProfit TaxRateGroup companies43.013.531.4%39.713.935.0%Joint ventures and associates*25.0-0.0%27.4-0.0%Underlying tax charge and rate68.013.519.8%67.113.920.7%PFI disposals114.9---Prior period adjustments(2.3)(0.4)Middle East remittances-(7.0)Total per Income Statement182.911.26.1%67.16.59.7%*The Group’s share of the post-tax results of joint ventures and associates is included in profit before tax in accordance with IFRS.As anticipated last year, the underlying tax charge and rate is slightly lower than in the previous year due to management action to stem losses in overseas tax jurisdictions that are not available for relief against other Group profits. Last year’s tax charge benefited from actions taken that improved the tax efficiency of earnings remitted from a subsidiary in the Middle East.The profit on disposal of PFI assets of £114.9 million recognised in the year is not subject to corporation tax.dIvIdendThe directors recommend a final dividend for the year of 14.1 pence, to bring the total for the year to 20.5 pence, an increase of 8 per cent over last year. This dividend is covered 2.3 times by headline earnings per share and is comfortably covered by free cash flow. overvIeW governAnce busIness revIeW FInAncIAl stAtements overvIeWnet debt And cAsh FloWAverage net debt for the year was £27 million (2011: £3 million).

The resulting 101 per cent conversion of operating profit before amortisation of intangible assets and exceptional items (2011: 145 per cent), brings our rolling three-year conversion rate to 116.8 per cent, compared with our KPI target of 100 per cent.Despite a £5.3 million net outflow of advances received from customers (2011: £5.8 million) working capital movements represented a small net inflow of £0.2 million. Net capital expenditure increased from £5.5 million to £14.9 million as we continue to invest in the growing activity levels in Support Services and Equipment Services. Even at this increased level, this remains significantly below the annual depreciation charge as we continue to generate cash returns on hire fleet investments made in earlier years within Equipment Services.The strong cash generation of our operations in the Middle East and of our Investment special purpose vehicles has enabled us broadly to maintain the levels of dividends remitted at £19.8 million (2011: £20.6 million) despite a decline in the overall contribution from joint ventures and associates.Tax paid of £10.7 million (2011: £3.2 million) remains lower than the Consolidated Income Statement charge incurred by the Group, due principally to timing differences and the tax deductions for pension deficit payments.Investments outflow of £11.6 million (2011: £19.3 million) reflects additional equity and sub-debt invested in PFI joint-venture companies.Disposals of PFI and other investments generated a net inflow of £119.3 million.Acquisitions outflow of £44.7 million in 2012 represents the cash purchase consideration for the acquisitions of Business Employment Services Training (BEST) (£18 million) and Advantage Healthcare (£26.5 million), along with aggregate acquired net debt of £0.2 million.reFInAncIngAs noted in last year’s Annual Report, in February 2012 we were successful in securing a long-term refinancing for the Group. This saw our previous £250 million syndicated revolving credit facility, which was due to expire in October 2013, replaced with a series of committed facilities totalling circa £245 million (at current exchange rates). These new facilities run in parallel with each other and provide a diverse maturity profile extending, in total, five years to February 2017. The new funding is subject to the same covenants as the previous facility and is on broadly similar commercial terms. It has been secured at slightly lower rates for borrowing and non-utilisation.These new funding arrangements provide us with increased certainty, greater flexibility, improved resilience, a diversity of maturity dates and sufficient balance sheet capacity to deliver our medium-term strategy.26 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 busIness revIeW FInAncIAl revIeWDisposals/pFiIn accordance with our long-term strategy of recycling capital from our investments portfolio, we completed two separate disposals of PFI investments during the year. Subsequently, in January 2013, we contributed the majority of the remaining PFI investment portfolio into the Interserve Pension Scheme. Following these transactions our PFI portfolio now consists solely of our investments in the Addiewell Prison and West Yorkshire Police projects, and our interest in the Alder Hey Children’s Hospital project on which we are preferred bidder, but which has not yet reached financial close. On 21 June 2012, we announced a sequence of transactions (including the exercise of pre-emption rights over the holding of a fellow investor) that gave rise to the disposal of half of our 331/3 per cent holding in the UCLH project in exchange for a net £33 million of cash.On 12 October 2012, we sold for cash consideration of £85.5 million interests representing 49.9 per cent of the equity and 62 per cent of the debt instruments in two subsidiaries that between them owned 19 of our PFI investments. In aggregate, these transactions contributed an exceptional profit on disposal of £110.9 million after associated costs.On 28 November 2012 we announced that we had entered into a conditional agreement with the trustee of the Pension Scheme to transfer our remaining interest in a portfolio of 19 PFI assets to the Trustee at a valuation of £55 million. Subsequent to the year-end, the transfer was approved by shareholders at a General Meeting and completed on 7 January 2013.acquisitionsDuring the year we began the process of reinvesting the proceeds raised from these asset disposals in new growth areas, by completing two acquisitions for aggregate consideration of £44.7 million, with another completed shortly after the year end.On 3 May 2012, consistent with our strategy to increase our capability to provide front-line public services, we acquired BEST, one of the UK’s leading providers of training and development for job seekers and employers, now renamed Interserve Working Futures. Total consideration was £18.0 million. The preliminary review of fair values identified acquired net assets of £3.8 million including £7.7 million of acquired intangible assets representing customer relationships. These intangible assets will be amortised over six years. The balance of £14.2 million has been recognised as goodwill.On 17 December 2012 we acquired Advantage Healthcare, a leading UK provider of community healthcare, for a total consideration of £26.5 million. The acquisition widens our access to a £10 billion market through offering a range of healthcare services at home. The preliminary review of fair values identified acquired net assets of £13.4 million including £16.5 million of acquired intangible assets representing customer relationships. These intangible assets will be amortised over 10 years, representing the estimated useful economic life of these relationships. The balance of £13.1 million has been recognised as goodwill.Shortly after the year end, on 7 January 2013, jointly with our partner in Oman, we acquired the oil and gas maintenance business of Willbros Middle East (known as TOCO). The acquisition expands our operational footprint in the oil and gas services business into Oman, a key growth market. Total cash consideration was US$41.3 million (circa £26 million), of which we contributed 85 per cent.We maintain a disciplined approach to reviewing potential acquisition opportunities, rejecting those which do not meet our strict valuation and other selection criteria, but with a strong balance sheet and significant available debt capacity and facilities, we remain well placed to take advantage of further appropriate acquisition opportunities as they are identified.pensionsAt 31 December 2012 the Group pension deficit under IAS 19, net of deferred tax, has increased to £77.8 million (2011: £42.2 million): £million20122011Defined benefit obligation799.3695.0Scheme assets(698.2)(638.8)Deferred tax thereon(23.3)(14.0)Net deficit77.842.2With the benefit of additional employer cash contributions significantly in excess of the Income Statement charge and an investment portfolio that out-performed expectations in the period, the value of Scheme assets increased by £59.4 million during the year after allowing for benefits paid. However, corporate bond yields, which are used to discount Scheme liabilities, have again fallen significantly during the year. As a result, the value of benefit obligations has increased by more than the increase in the value of Scheme assets.interserve annual report 2012 business revieW Financial revieW 27 overvieW governance business revieW Financial statements overvieWDefineD benefit liabilities anD funDingThe Group’s principal pension scheme is the Interserve Pension Scheme, comprising approximately 95 per cent of the total defined benefit obligations of the Group. The triennial actuarial valuation of the Scheme as at 31 December 2011 was completed during the year with an assessed actuarial deficit of £150 million. A new programme of deficit recovery payments was also agreed with the Trustee, comprising a £55 million contribution of PFI assets (which completed in January 2013) and annual recovery payments of £12 million per annum, indexed each year until 2019. These new cash contribution levels, reduced from the current £23 million per annum, make available an additional £11 million of cash flow per annum to reinvest in operational activities.investment risksScheme assets are invested in a mixed portfolio that consists of a balance of performance-seeking assets (such as equities) and lower-risk assets (such as gilts and corporate bonds). As at 31 December 2012, 45 per cent of the Scheme assets were invested in performance-seeking assets (2011: 44 per cent).The agreed investment objectives of the Scheme are:• to secure, with a high degree of certainty, liabilities in respect of all defined benefit members; and• to adopt a long-term strategy which aims to capture outperformance from equities and move gradually into bonds to reflect the increasing maturity of the defined benefit membership with a view to reducing the volatility of investment returns.The majority of equities held by the Scheme are in international blue chip entities. The aim is to hold a globally diversified portfolio of equities, with an ultimate target of 50 per cent of equities being held in UK and 50 per cent in US, European and Asia Pacific equities.28 interserve annual report 2012 business revieW financial revieW£42.2m£5.8mcurrent year service costDec 2011Dec 2012£30.8m£5.8mcash contributions£125.4mincrease in liabilities£49.7mreturn on assetstax impact of movements£77.8m£0m-£20m-£40m-£60m-£80m-£100m-£120m-£140m£9.3mIAs 19 AssumptIons And sensItIvItIesAssumptions adopted in assessment of the income statement charge and funding position under IAS 19 are reviewed by our actuarial advisers, Lane Clark & Peacock LLP.

As a result, when we publish results for 2013, comparative numbers for 2012 and earlier years will be restated to be on a consistent basis. Going forward, scheme administration expenses will be expensed within operating profit (they are currently included in the return on scheme assets disclosed within interest) and the expected return on scheme assets will be accounted for at the lower liability discount rate (equivalent to an AA corporate bond yield). The combined impact of this restatement on 2012 is currently expected to be a reduction in the published Headline EPS of 1.9 pence. There will be no impact on the disclosed obligation, asset, balance sheet or cash flow.

However, this reduction in investment return should be at least partially offset by bank interest on the £119 million of cash raised from the disposals, a return on the additional £55 million of pension scheme assets and/or returns from businesses acquired using these proceeds.treAsury rIsk mAnAgementWe operate a centralised Treasury function whose primary role is to manage interest rate, liquidity and foreign exchange risks. The Treasury function is not a profit centre and it does not enter into speculative transactions. It aims to reduce financial risk by the use of hedging instruments, operating within a framework of policies and guidelines approved by the Board. liquidity riskWe seek to maintain sufficient facilities to ensure access to funding for our current and anticipated future requirements, determined from budgets and medium-term plans.Under our new bank facilities signed in February 2012, we have access to committed syndicated revolving credit facilities totalling £150 million until February 2017 and circa £95 million of various bilateral agreements which expire between February 2015 and February 2016.market price riskThe objectives of our interest rate policy are to match funding costs with operational revenue performance and to ensure that adequate interest cover is maintained, in line with Board approved targets and banking covenants. Our borrowings are principally denominated in sterling and mostly subject to floating rates of interest linked to LIBOR. We have in place interest rate caps and swaps which limit interest rate risk. The weighted average duration to maturity of these instruments is a little over two years.Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 busIness revIeW FInAncIAl revIeW 29 overvIeW governAnce busIness revIeW FInAncIAl stAtements overvIeWForeign currency riskTransactional currency translationThe revenues and costs of our trading entities are typically denominated in their functional currency. Where a material trade is transacted in a non-functional currency, the entity is required to take out instruments through the centralised Treasury function to hedge the currency exposure. The instruments used will normally be forward currency contracts. The impact of retranslating any entity’s non-functional currency balances into its functional currency was not material.Consolidation currency translationWe do not hedge the impact of translating overseas entities trading results or net assets into the consolidation currency.In preparing the consolidated financial statements, profits and losses from overseas activities are translated at the average exchange rates applying during the year. The average rates used in this process are disclosed on page 24.The balance sheets of our overseas entities are translated at the year-end exchange rates. The impact of changes in the year-end exchange rates, compared to the rates used in preparing the 2011 consolidated financial statements, has led to an decrease in consolidated net assets of £8.4 million (2011: £8.0 million increase).goIng concern The Group’s business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Business Review. Our financial position, cash flows, liquidity position and borrowing facilities and details of financial risk management are described in the Financial Review.The majority of our revenue is derived from long-term contracts, which provides a strong future workload and good forward revenue visibility. We have access to committed debt facilities totalling circa £245 million until a range of dates that extend beyond at least February 2015. As a consequence, the directors believe that the Group is well placed to manage its business risks successfully despite the current uncertain economic outlook.After making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.30 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 busIness revIeW FInAncIAl revIeWInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 busIness revIeW FInAncIAl revIeW 31 overvIeW governAnce busIness revIeW FInAncIAl stAtements overvIeWturnIng WAste Into reneWed WAterWAste WAter treAtmentGulf Contracting Company (GCC), an Interserve associate company, helped tackle one of Qatar’s major environmental challenges by turning sewage from its accommodation camps into renewed water.Increasing population and rapid development have placed strains on a country with one of the world’s lowest levels of rainfall. Using technology developed by Canadian company Bionest, GCC is revolutionising the supply of water for itself and its clients.Bionest has been developing waste water purification technology over the last 14 years and has installed more than 18,000 units across the world. This biological system requires minimal sludge removal – i.e. once a year, rather than several times per day. The system produces no odour and can be installed either above or below ground. Application of the technology has been so successful in Qatar that we have now supplied it to Oman, the UAE, Bahrain and India through our associate companies in these countries.This sustainable solution to waste water treatment is being transferred to other markets where promotion of good governance and socially responsible practice showcase Interserve’s commitment to sustainability.IngenuIty At WorkSustainability is an integral part of what we do as a company and how we fulfil our commitments to our shareholders, customers, employees and the communities in which we live and work. To manage risk and increase our opportunities for profitable growth, we recognise the need to put sustainability at the forefront of our decision-making as a business.During 2012 we have been working to accelerate our activities in this area, bringing renewed impetus to ensure we deliver a far-reaching and effective sustainability strategy. In order to build and grow our company there is an implicit need to support a sustainable environment, whether natural or social, wherever we operate. In March 2013 we will launch our new sustainability plan called SustainAbilities which builds on our progress to date, but also accelerates our ability to show increasing leadership in this area. Visit www.interserve.com/sustainabilities for more information.SustainAbilities is based around the management of four capitals: Natural, Social, Knowledge and Financial. Natural Capital – the stock of natural resources that enable the earth and everyone on it to exist - from drinking water to breathable air, to sources of energy and raw materials. We have a significant impact, and indeed rely on these resources, and we are committed to take action to protect them.Social Capital – this is the stock of social connections, benefits, roles and networks that enable societies to function and thrive. This is clearly important to us and employment opportunities, trust, belonging, a sense of place, wellbeing, health and education are major areas of focus.Knowledge Capital – this is the stock of skills, know-how and experience possessed by society. Here we will develop apprenticeships and graduate training schemes, support our employees and encourage all our stakeholders to contribute to a more sustainable world.Financial Capital – by taking steps to protect and enhance natural, social and knowledge capital, we will improve our ability to manage financial capital to create financial growth.

Create places that benefit people2. Deliver public service in the public interest3. Build more skills and more opportunities 4. Generate a positive environmental impact5. Deliver sustainable growthOur new plan includes 15 distinct goals, with clear deliverables against each one, all aimed at supporting these outcomes.While 2012 has been a year of development as we define our ongoing sustainability strategy, we also made good progress against our existing plans. In 2013 we will embed our strategy throughout the organisation, benchmarking through measurement and collating data to ensure we manage and track progress against our ambitious plans.What follows is an outline of how we performed in 2012, set against each of the four capitals that will define our area of focus going forward.Natural CapitalWe aim to provide a positive environmental impact by moving beyond compliance towards a positive and restorative contribution to the environment through each of our projects.In addition to our corporate responsibility to safeguard the environment, there are clear business advantages in taking a lead on environmental issues. It means we are better placed to help our customers comply with legislation and prepare for a changing climate. It also enables us to reduce our customers’ costs and their impact on the environment. During the year we completed two award-winning schools built to the Passivhaus standard – the highest in thermal efficiency. Interserve was the first company to build a school in the UK to this standard, reflecting our emphasis on innovation in design.We have used a spread of indicators relevant to each of our operating companies to monitor environmental performance. The following core impacts are identified for the Group as a whole:• Greenhouse (CO2) gas emissions from our use of energy, including electricity, gas, fuel in vehicles, transport and travel• Use of resources, including water and timber• Generation and disposal of waste.We collect data in our wholly-controlled UK operations, based around our fixed office locations and the operations we support. This includes office locations associated with contracts where we hold lease agreements and pay utility bills. It also includes the fuel we purchase for use in vehicles to deliver our contracts.During the year we achieved CEMARS (Certified Emissions Measurement and Reduction Scheme) accreditation for our carbon emissions reporting. This provides certification against the standard ISO14064 Part 1&3:2006 and covers our UK emissions for 2011. 2011 data has been restated using the certified figures.For 2012 our total greenhouse gas emissions were 37,702 tonnes CO2e, marginally increased from 37,555 tonnes recorded for 2011. The emissions can be broken down as 76 per cent Scope 1* (28,608 tonnes), 15 per cent Scope 2* (5,770 tonnes) and 9 per cent Scope 3* (3,324 tonnes). The increase in emissions arises from increased energy use in our fixed site locations influenced by an increase in the number of properties and the effect of cold weather at the end of the year.Measure2012 target2012 outcome/2013 targetReduce carbon emissions from energy used at UK fixed site locations (tonnes CO2e per £million UK revenue) by 2.5% per annum 3.25 tonnes/£m3.32 tonnes/£m 3.24 tonnes/£mReduce carbon emissions from fuel used in UK fleet and cars (tonnes CO2e per £million UK revenue) by 2.5% per annum12.45 tonnes/£m12.18 tonnes/£m 11.88 tonnes/£mReduce water consumption at UK fixed site locations (m3 water used per £million UK revenue) by 2% per annum 22.71m3/£m20.38m3/£m 19.97m3/£mReduce waste generated at UK fixed site locations (kg of waste generated per UK employee) by 2% per annum41.02kg/employee40.74kg/employee 39.93kg/employee*Scope 1: All direct greenhouse gas emissions.*Scope 2: Indirect greenhouse gas emissions from consumption of purchased electricity, heat or steam.* Scope 3: Other indirect emissions, such as the extraction and production of purchased materials and fuels, transport-related activities in vehicles not owned or controlled by Interserve, electricity-related activities not covered in Scope 2.iNterServe aNNual repOrt 2012 buSiNeSS review SuStaiNability review 33 Overview GOverNaNCe buSiNeSS review FiNaNCial StatemeNtS OverviewSOCial CapitalOur business gives us the opportunity to provide places that benefit people and to deliver public service in the public interest. This includes making places and delivering services that enhance people’s lives, that they value, that contribute to their wellbeing and that are designed and built for the future. We also provide our employees with the opportunity to experience a safe and healthy workplace. The services we provide have a wider social impact – whether they are helping schools and hospitals to operate more efficiently, improving the built environment or working to get the long-term unemployed back into work.Our approach to social responsibility provides opportunities for our employees, focuses on their wellbeing and reflects our involvement in the economies, markets and communities in which we operate. We are playing a crucial role in delivering social sustainability, economic regeneration and transformation, by undertaking our work responsibly and by engaging in matters of local, national and global interest.employee consultationWe are committed to involving our people in issues affecting them as employees and keep them informed of all relevant factors concerning the Group’s performance, strategy, brand, charitable activities and other issues. We achieve this through formal and informal briefings, our Group publications and our widely-used intranet. Employee representatives are consulted regularly on a wide range of matters affecting their current and future interests. Since 2007 we have conducted a biennial, Group-wide opinion survey to help us understand how our employees view working in Interserve and what improvements we are able to make at a local or central level.Charitable givingIn early 2012 a group of senior managers set up the Interserve Employee Foundation. The aim of the Foundation is to improve the quality of life for people in the communities where we operate, enlisting the skills, capabilities, resources and enthusiasm of our employees. Ambassadors from across the business promote the aims of the Foundation and help publicise local projects, in particular through the Give a Day of Your Time initiative. The Foundation was launched with the completion of an ambitious project to construct a learning centre in Chennai, India. Interserve’s Big Book Drop initiative resulted in the donation of 50,000 books in support of Literacy for Life, a programme aimed at improving the life chances of disadvantaged children in the territories where we work. During the year grants were awarded to a range of projects that offer support to local communities, such as the Rally Homeless Project, Nottingham; Swansea Community Boat Project; Abergavenny Food Bank, Monmouthshire and the Coolaroo Literacy Program in Victoria, Australia.We continued to support Help for Heroes, who provide practical support to those wounded in UK military service. Our three-year partnership with Help for Heroes has currently raised a total of over £289,000. The total raised in 2012 was over £149,000, with staff taking part in a wide range of fundraising activities. A team took part in the Yukon River Quest 2012, contributing over £28,500 to the charity and a further £88,000 was raised at a charity ball.Beyond our chosen charity, Help for Heroes, we involve ourselves in other local and national charities with many of our employees supporting causes that are close to them personally or to our clients. Charitable activities initiated by employees have raised some £100,000 during the year for Together for Short Lives, a UK charity for children with life-threatening conditions, with a further £54,366 donated to smaller charities across the business, including our annual corporate donation to Help for Heroes.Interserve has been successfully assessed against BS 8903:2010, the world’s first standard for sustainable procurement. Critical areas such as supporting local supply chains, carbon measurement and energy conservation programmes are set challenging targets within the accreditation, and our Support Services procurement team was awarded the Gold Standard with an overall classification described as “approaching cutting edge”. iNGeNuity at wOrKGOld StaNdard FOr SuStaiNable prOCuremeNt34 iNterServe aNNual repOrt 2012 buSiNeSS review SuStaiNability reviewemployee share schemesWe operate two all-employee HMRC-approved share schemes in order to support our Employer of Choice goal and to encourage our employees to share in the future of the Group.

In our Share Incentive Plan (SIP) employees can purchase company shares through lump-sum or monthly payments which are deducted from their salaries before income tax and national insurance liabilities are assessed. diversity Diversity in all its forms is fundamental to our business and we have adopted a Company-wide Diversity Policy to promote the principles of inclusion. We operate in a variety of environments and geographies, in numerous roles, for a wide range of clients. To do this effectively, we need an equally diverse workforce that understands our customers’ needs and stimulates innovative solutions.Our policy supports the fundamental belief that all our employees, including potential recruits, are equal regardless of gender, race, disability, sexual orientation, age, religion, religious belief or any other reason that might be assumed to limit their contribution or potential. Once someone is part of the Group they have the chance to contribute and develop their career in whatever way their abilities and the opportunities we can offer them allow.KNOwledGe CapitalWe understand that by providing more skills and opportunities for employees and stakeholders they will have opportunities for self-improvement, become more productive and more able to make a positive contribution.This is reflected in our focus on training and development, contributing to the education and career development of our workforce, as well as through our emphasis on local supply chains and training offered to customers. Interserve is now also a major provider in the Welfare to Work Services market, helping to train and place into jobs.Career development As a broad service provider, a principal differentiator for us is the quality of our people with the skills, knowledge and attitudes that they demonstrate every day, making a real difference to our customers’ needs. This industry-leading approach to learning and development was recognised when winning the British Institute of Facilities Management (BIFM) award for Learning and Career Development.Interserve has career development programmes throughout all levels of the Group. We pioneered the Facilities Management NVQ and have well-established apprenticeship programmes, literacy, numeracy and English language courses, nationally recognised certificates, awards and diplomas and a number of other professionally accredited programmes through organisations such as the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and the BIFM.Over the course of the year our people received more than 10,200 days’ worth of training - in addition to external courses and self-directed learning. FiNaNCial CapitalWe are focussed on delivering sustainable growth, building a profitable business that integrates the true costs into the business and delivers sustained value for all.By taking substantial steps towards the protection of natural, social and knowledge capital, we will enhance our ability to manage financial capital in ways that will generate a more profitable business through growth.Economic success is an integral part of sustainable development, enabling the sharing of wealth to the benefit of society as a whole. We are aware of our responsibilities in the locations where we work and are passionate about nurturing the local supply chain and creating sustainable employment and training opportunities for local people.Details of the Company’s financial performance are well documented elsewhere in this report, but as part of our new sustainability plans we are looking at how best to integrate our financial and sustainability reporting in the future.equal OppOrtuNitieSInterserve is committed to eliminating discrimination among our workforce in order that we may offer employees an environment where there is no unlawful discrimination and all decisions are based on merit. Our policy is to promote equality and fairness for all in our employment.

Subject to approval of shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) on 13 May 2013, the final dividend will be paid on 20 May 2013 to shareholders appearing on the register at the close of business on 5 April 2013. The shares will be quoted ex-dividend on 3 April 2013.The Company’s dividend reinvestment plan will continue to be available to eligible shareholders.

All shares rank equally and are fully paid. No person holds shares carrying special rights with regard to control of the Company.During the year 929,883 shares were issued fully paid to participants of the Performance Share Plan on the vesting of awards granted in March 2009. A further 112,710 shares were issued fully paid to a participant of the 2002 Executive Share Option Scheme. As a result of the foregoing allotments, the Company’s issued share capital at the end of the year stood at 126,846,939 (2011: 125,804,346) ordinary shares of 10p each (£12,684,693.90) (2011: £12,580,434.60). There has been no change since the year end.Details of outstanding awards and options over shares in the Company as at 31 December 2012 are set out in notes 27 and 29 to the financial statements on pages 108 and 109 respectively.Issue of sharesSection 551 of the Companies Act 2006 (the “2006 Act”) provides that the directors may not allot shares unless empowered to do so by the shareholders. A resolution giving such authority was passed at the AGM held on 16 May 2012. The AGM authorities were used in 2012 only in relation to the issue of shares pursuant to the Performance Share Plan and the 2002 Executive Share Option Scheme as described above.In accordance with the guidelines issued by the Association of British Insurers (the “ABI”), the directors propose Resolution 17 set out in the Notice of AGM to renew the authority granted to them at the 2012 AGM to allot shares up to an aggregate nominal value of one-third of the Company’s issued share capital plus a further one-third (i.e. two-thirds in all) where the allotment is in connection with a rights issue. Under section 561 of the 2006 Act, if the directors wish to allot unissued shares for cash (other than pursuant to an employee share scheme) they must first offer them to existing shareholders in proportion to their holdings (a pre-emptive offer). Resolution 18 set out in the Notice of AGM will be proposed as a special resolution in order to renew the directors’ authority to allot shares for cash other than by way of rights to existing shareholders. By restricting such authority to an aggregate nominal value of no more than 5 per cent of the Company’s total issued equity capital, the Company will be in compliance with the Pre-Emption Group’s Statement of Principles (the “Principles”). overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ report 43Shareholders should note that the Listing Rules of the Financial Services Authority do not require shareholders’ specific approval for each issue of shares for cash on a non-pre-emptive basis to the extent that under section 570 of the 2006 Act the provisions of section 561 are disapplied generally. If given, this authority will expire on the date of the next AGM of the Company. The Principles also request that in any rolling three-year period a company does not make non-pre-emptive issues for cash or of equity securities exceeding 7.5 per cent of the company’s issued share capital without prior consultation with shareholders. The percentages of shares issued by the Company on a non-pre-emptive basis in 2012 and in the period 2010 to 2012 pursuant to employee share schemes (calculated by reference to the Company’s closing issued share capital at 31 December 2012), were 0.82 per cent and 1.17 per cent respectively.Save for issues of shares in respect of various employee share schemes, the directors have no current plans to make use of the authorities sought by Resolutions 17 and 18 although they consider their renewal appropriate in order to retain maximum flexibility to take advantage of business opportunities as they arise.repurchase of sharesThe Company has authority under a shareholders’ resolution passed at the 2012 AGM to repurchase up to 12,580,434 of the Company’s ordinary shares in the market. The shares may be purchased at a price ranging between the nominal value for each share and an amount equal to the higher of (i) 105 per cent of the average of the middle-market price of an ordinary share for the five business days immediately preceding the date on which the Company agrees to buy the shares concerned and (ii) the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest independent current bid on the London Stock Exchange at the time the purchase is carried out. This authority expires at the conclusion of the forthcoming AGM on 13 May 2013. No shares have been repurchased by the Company under the authority granted at the 2012 AGM. Resolution 19 set out in the Notice of AGM will be proposed as a special resolution in order to renew this authority. Although the directors have no immediate plans to do so, they believe it is prudent to seek general authority from shareholders to be able to act if circumstances were to arise in which they considered such purchases to be desirable. This power will only be exercised if and when, in the light of market conditions prevailing at that time, the directors believe that such purchases would increase earnings per share and would be for the benefit of shareholders generally. Any shares purchased under this authority will be cancelled (unless the directors determine that they are to be held as treasury shares) and the number of shares in issue will be reduced accordingly.Whilst the Company does not presently hold shares in treasury, the Treasury Shares Regulations allow shares purchased by the Company out of distributable profits to be held as treasury shares, which may then be cancelled, sold for cash or used to meet the Company’s obligations under its employee share schemes. The authority sought by this resolution is intended to apply equally to shares to be held by the Company as treasury shares in accordance with the Treasury Shares Regulations.rIGhts AttAChInG to shAresGeneralThe rights attaching to the ordinary shares are set out in the 2006 Act and the Company’s Articles of Association. A copy of the Articles can be obtained on request from the Company Secretary. The Articles may only be changed by special resolution of shareholders which requires, on a vote on a show of hands, at least three-quarters of the shareholders or proxies present at the meeting to be in favour of the resolution or, on a poll, at least three-quarters in nominal value of the votes cast by shareholders or their proxies to be in favour of the resolution.A shareholder whose name appears on the register of members may choose whether those shares are evidenced by share certificates (certificated form) or held in electronic form (uncertificated) in CREST.votingSubject to the restrictions set out below, a shareholder is entitled to attend (or appoint another person as his representative (a “proxy”) to attend) and to exercise all or any of his rights to speak, ask questions and vote at any general meeting of the Company. A shareholder may also appoint more than one proxy, provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that shareholder. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company.The right to appoint a proxy does not apply to a person who has been nominated under section 146 of the 2006 Act to enjoy information rights (a “Nominated Person”). He/she may, however, have a right under an agreement with the registered shareholder holding the shares on his/her behalf to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy. Alternatively, if a Nominated Person does not have such a right, or does not wish to exercise it, he/she may have a right under such an agreement to give instructions to the person holding the shares as to the exercise of voting rights.In accordance with section 327 of the 2006 Act, in order to be valid, any form of proxy sent by the Company to shareholders or any proxy registered electronically in relation to any general meeting must be delivered to the Company’s registrars not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for holding the meeting (or any adjourned meeting). In calculating the 48 hour period no account shall be taken of any part of a day that is not a working day. Full details of the deadlines for exercising voting rights in respect of the 2013 AGM are set out in the Notice of AGM.Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares and to any other provisions of the Articles of Association or statutes, on a vote on a resolution at a general meeting on a show of hands every shareholder present in person, every proxy present who has 44 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ reportbeen duly appointed by one or more shareholders entitled to vote on the resolution and every authorised representative of a corporation which is a shareholder of the Company entitled to vote on the resolution, shall have one vote. If a proxy has been duly appointed by more than one shareholder and has been instructed by one or more of those shareholders to vote for the resolution and by one or more of those shareholders to vote against it, that proxy shall have one vote for and one vote against the resolution. On a poll, every shareholder present in person or by proxy shall have one vote for every share held.A resolution put to the vote at a general meeting shall be decided on a show of hands unless the notice of the meeting specifies that a poll will be called on such resolution or a poll is (before the resolution is put to the vote on a show of hands or on the declaration of the results of the show of hands) directed by the Chairman or demanded in accordance with the Articles of Association. If a person fails to give the Company any information required by a notice served on him by the Company under section 793 of the 2006 Act (which confers upon public companies the power to require information to be supplied in respect of a person’s interests in the Company’s shares) then the Company may, no sooner than 21 days later, and after warning that person, serve a disenfranchisement notice upon the shareholder registered as the holder of the shares in respect of which the section 793 notice was given. Unless the information required by the section 793 notice is given within 14 days, such holder will not be entitled to receive notice of any general meeting or attend any such meeting of the Company and shall not be entitled to exercise, either personally or by proxy, the votes attaching to such shares in respect of which the disenfranchisement notice has been given unless and until the information required by the section 793 notice has been provided.General meetingsNo business may be transacted at a general meeting unless a quorum is present consisting of not less than two shareholders present in person or by proxy or by two duly authorised representatives of a corporation. Two proxies of the same shareholder or two duly authorised representatives of the same corporation will not constitute a quorum.An AGM must be called on at least 21 days’ clear notice. All other general meetings are also required to be held on at least 21 days’ clear notice unless the Company offers shareholders an electronic voting facility and a special resolution reducing the period of notice to not less than 14 days has been passed. The directors are proposing Resolution 21 set out in the Notice of AGM to renew the authority obtained at last year’s AGM to reduce the notice period for general meetings (other than AGMs) to at least 14 days. It is intended that this shorter notice period will only be used for non-routine business and where merited in the interests of shareholders as a whole.The business of an AGM is to receive and consider the accounts and balance sheets and the reports of the directors and auditors, to elect directors in place of those retiring, to elect auditors and fix their remuneration and to declare a dividend.Providing that notice is given to the Company no later than six weeks before an AGM or no later than the date on which the notice of an AGM is given, shareholders representing at least 5 per cent of the total voting rights of all the shareholders who have a right to vote at the AGM or at least 100 shareholders who have that right and who hold shares in the Company on which there has been paid up an average sum per shareholder of at least £100, may require the Company to include an item in the business to be dealt with at the AGM.dividendsSubject to the provisions of the 2006 Act, the Company may, by ordinary resolution, declare a dividend to be paid to the shareholders but the amount of the dividend may not exceed the amount recommended by the directors. The directors may also pay interim dividends on any class of shares on any dates and in any amounts and in respect of any periods as appear to the directors to be justified by the distributable profits of the Company.liquidationIf the Company is wound up the liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution of the Company, and any other sanction required by law, divide amongst the shareholders the whole or any part of the assets of the Company. He may, for such purposes, set such value as he deems fair upon any property to be divided and may determine how such division shall be carried out as between the shareholders or different classes of shareholders. The liquidator may also transfer the whole or any part of such assets to trustees to be held in trust for the benefit of the shareholders. No shareholder can be compelled to accept any shares or other securities which would give him any liability.ModIFICAtIon oF rIGhtsIf at any time the capital of the Company is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class or any of such rights may be modified, abrogated, or varied either:(a) with the consent of the holders of 75 per cent of the issued shares of that class; or(b) with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of the class.

In accordance with the Listing, Prospectus, and Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Services Authority, certain employees are required to seek the approval of the Company to deal in its shares.The Company is not aware of any agreements between shareholders that may result in restrictions on the transfer of securities or on voting rights.Subject to the 2006 Act, the directors may refuse to register any transfer of any share which is not fully paid (whether certificated or uncertificated), provided that the refusal does not prevent dealing in shares in the Company from taking place on an open and proper basis.The directors may also decline to register the transfer of any certificated share unless the instrument of transfer is duly stamped (if stampable) and accompanied by the certificate of the shares to which it relates and such other evidence as the directors may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer.Transfers of uncertificated shares must be conducted through CREST and the directors can refuse to register transfers in accordance with the regulations governing the operation of CREST.All share transfers must be registered as soon as practicable.

David Paterson will retire from the Board on 30 April 2013. David Trapnell will also retire from the Board following the conclusion of the AGM and will be succeeded as Senior Independent Director by Les Cullen, who will in turn be succeeded as Chair of the Audit Committee by Anne Fahy.Under the Company’s Articles of Association, any director appointed by the Board since the last AGM may only hold office until the date of the next AGM, at which time that director must stand for election by shareholders. Anne Fahy will therefore be standing for election at the AGM on 13 May 2013.The directors acknowledge the Corporate Governance Code provision which encourages board members to stand for annual re-election at the AGM and, as last year, each director (save for David Paterson and David Trapnell) will submit himself for re-election at this year’s AGM.The directors’ beneficial interests in, and options to acquire, ordinary shares in the Company at the year end are set out in the Directors’ Remuneration Report on pages 66 to 68 of this Annual Report and Financial Statements.Between the year end and the date of this report, Steven Dance, Adrian Ringrose and Dougie Sutherland have purchased an additional 57 shares each and David Paterson has purchased 56 shares pursuant to the Interserve Share Incentive Plan 2009. Further details are disclosed on page 68 in the Directors’ Remuneration Report. There have been no further changes in the shareholdings of the directors who held office at the year end.The directors do not have any interest in any other Group company, other than as directors. No director has, or has had, a material interest, directly or indirectly, at any time during the year under review in any contract significant to the Company’s business.On 26 September 2007 the rules of the Interserve Pension Scheme were amended in order to provide the directors of Interserve Trustees Limited, the corporate trustee of the Interserve Pension Scheme, with a qualifying pension scheme 46 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ reportindemnity to the extent that insurance has not been taken out by the trustee to cover its liabilities, or such liabilities cannot be paid from the proceeds of any insurance taken out by the trustee. That qualifying pension scheme indemnity remains in force at the date of this report and is available for inspection by shareholders at the Company’s registered office.In January 2011 an indemnity was given to the trustees of the Douglas Group Compass Pension Plan for any claim, costs, loss, damages and expenses which may be made against them or which they may pay or incur (save as a consequence of breach of trust committed knowingly and intentionally or as a result of negligence) in connection with the administration of the Plan and the winding-up of the Plan. Two of the trustees were also directors of one or more Group subsidiary companies. This Plan was formally wound up on 7 January 2011 but the indemnity remains in force.In January 2012 an indemnity was given to the trustees of the Interserve Retirement Plan against all and any claims, costs, damages and expenses which may be made against them or which they may pay or incur in connection with their administration of the Plan and the winding-up of the Plan (other than liabilities arising as a consequence of breach of trust committed knowingly and intentionally). One of the trustees was also a director of various Group subsidiary companies. This Plan was formally wound up on 31 January 2012.substAntIAl shAreholdInGsAs at 31 December 2012 the Company had been notified of the following interests in the voting rights over shares, as shown in the table below:Name of holderNumber of ordinary shares% of total voting rightsNature of holdingHenderson Global Investors Ltd9,454,1407.45IndirectMondrian Investment Partners Ltd7,587,5215.98IndirectJPMorgan Asset Management Holdings Inc6,354,3685.01IndirectStandard Life Investments Ltd6,159,1144.86Direct & indirectSageview Capital MGP, LLC5,653,0264.46IndirectPrudential plc group of companies4,634,4073.65DirectBetween the year end and the date of this report, the Company has been notified of the following:• the interest of JPMorgan Asset Management Holdings Inc in the voting rights has increased to 6,492,194 shares (5.12 per cent of total voting rights); and• the interest of Sageview Capital MGP, LLC in the voting rights has decreased to 4,774,780 shares (3.76 per cent of total voting rights).sIGnIFICAnt AGreeMents – ChAnGe oF Control provIsIonsThe following significant agreements contain provisions entitling the counter parties to exercise termination rights in the event of a change of control in the Company:• Under the terms of the banking facility agreements detailed on page 26 of the Financial Review, if any person, or group of persons acting in concert, gains control of the Company any lender (i) is no longer obliged to fund any loan, save for a rollover loan; and (ii) may, by not less than 15 days’ notice, cancel its commitment under the facility and declare its participation in all outstanding loans, together with accrued interest and all other amounts payable under the facility, immediately due and repayable.The Group’s share schemes also contain provisions relating to the vesting and exercising of awards/options in the event of a change of control of the Group.There are no provisions in the directors’ service agreements nor in any employees’ contracts providing for compensation for loss of office or employment occurring because of a takeover.ChArItAble And polItICAl donAtIonsCharitable donations made by the Company during the year amounted to £54,366 (2011: £40,610). Details of the beneficiaries of donations are given on page 34 in the charitable giving section of the Sustainability Review.No political donations were made during the period (2011: £nil). It is not the Company’s policy to make cash donations to political parties. This policy is strictly adhered to and there is no intention to change it. However, the definitions used in the 2006 Act for “political donation” and “political expenditure” remain very broad, which may have the effect of covering a number of normal business activities that would not be considered political donations or political expenditure in the usual sense. These could include support for bodies engaged in law reform or governmental policy review or involvement in seminars and functions that may be attended by politicians. To avoid any possibility of inadvertently contravening the 2006 Act, the directors are again seeking shareholder authority at the AGM (Resolution 16) to ensure that the Company acts within the provisions of current UK law when carrying out its normal business activities.CredItor pAyMent polICyIt is the Group’s normal practice to agree payment terms with its suppliers and abide by those terms. Payment becomes due when it can be confirmed that goods and/or services have been provided in accordance with the relevant contractual conditions. The Group’s trade creditor days at 31 December 2012 were 63 days (2011: 82 days). The Company’s trade creditor days at 31 December 2012 (calculated in accordance with the 2006 Act) were 23 days (2011: 19 days). This represents the ratio, expressed in days, between the amounts invoiced to the Company in the year by its suppliers and the amounts due, at the year end, to trade creditors falling due for payment within one year. overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ report 47AudItorsResolutions to re-appoint Deloitte LLP as the Company’s auditors and to authorise the directors to determine their remuneration will be proposed at the forthcoming AGM.statement on information to auditorsEach person who is a director at the date of approval of this report confirms that:(a) so far as he/she is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Company’s auditors are unaware; and(b) he/she has made such enquiries of his/her fellow directors and of the Company’s auditors and has taken such other steps as were required by his/her duty as a director of the Company to exercise due care, skill and diligence in order to make himself/herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Company’s auditors are aware of that information.AnnuAl GenerAl MeetInG resolutIonsThe resolutions to be presented at the AGM to be held on 13 May 2013, together with the explanatory notes, appear in the separate Notice of Annual General Meeting sent to all shareholders and which is also available on our website at www.interserve.com.Interserve House Approved by the Board of Ruscombe Park directors and signed on Twyford behalf of the Board Reading Berkshire RG10 9JU t bradbury Company Secretary 27 February 2013Cautionary statementThe Directors’ Report (the “Report”) set out above is the “management report” for the purposes of paragraph 4.1.8R of the FSA’s Disclosure and Transparency Rules.The Report has been prepared solely for existing members of the Company in compliance with UK company law and the Listing, Prospectus, and Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the FSA.

We take those responsibilities very seriously.Interserve’s success depends on following a clear and robust strategy to deliver continued growth and shareholder value. The Board is confident in the strategy we have developed, and we are continually testing our current and proposed activities against this framework. We aim to set stretching financial objectives while maintaining our prudent risk appetite. In addition the Board has an important role in providing leadership on the values and ethics of the business, and in encouraging innovation and enterprise that provides better solutions for our customers.To perform these roles effectively we believe we need a strong and diverse Board, with an open culture of debate and challenge. All directors are appointed on merit, based on the experience and insights they can bring to the Board as well as their commitment to our values. Our mix of executive and non-executive directors works well for our business, ensuring we have knowledge and accountability around the Board table as well as a range of external experiences. Although there was not a majority of non-executive directors during the period under review, I continue to be satisfied through my own observations and our Board review that the strength and independence of our non-executives and our open style of debate ensures an effective governance check within the Board while maintaining the overall Board size at an optimum level.The Board continues to seek to widen its diversity in all its forms. In making new appointments to the Board an important criterion is assessing the additional range of insights and perspectives that new candidates can contribute to an effective, cohesive and challenging mix of individuals around the Board table. I am delighted that in January we appointed Anne Fahy as a new non-executive director – who brings a wide range of international experience in a major industrial company. Anne will take over the role of Chairman of the Audit Committee from Les Cullen, who will succeed David Trapnell as Senior Independent Director upon his retirement.We will continue to monitor our success in developing the diversity of the Board as part of the annual evaluation of Board effectiveness. The forthcoming AGM will see the retirement of David Trapnell, our Senior Independent Director. David has served on the Board for almost 10 years, providing great wisdom and support throughout. On 30 April David Paterson will also retire from the Board. He has been a huge source of strength in the management of our successful construction business over many years, but fortunately his legacy includes having developed a strong cadre of senior managers who we are confident can carry the business forward. As last year, all other directors who wish to remain in office will seek re-election.lord Blackwell ChairmanlorD BlACKWell CHAIRMAN overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe CorporAte GovernAnCe 49CoMplIAnCe WIth the CodeThe Financial Services Authority (the “FSA”) requires the Company to disclose how it has applied the principles of the UK Corporate Governance Code (the “Code”) and whether there has been compliance with its provisions throughout the financial year. In the case of non-compliance, the Company must specify those provisions with which it has not complied and give reasons for this. The Code may be found on the FRC website (www.frc.org.uk). Procedures have also been put in place to address the new edition of the Code which was published in September 2012 and which applies to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 October 2012.The directors consider that the Company has complied fully with the provisions of the Code applicable to it throughout the accounting period ended 31 December 2012 with the following exception:• Provision B.1.2 of the Code requires at least half the board, excluding the Chairman, to comprise non-executive directors determined by the board to be independent. The Board comprised six executive and four non-executive directors plus the Chairman during the period under review. The appointment of Anne Fahy as a non-executive director on 1 January 2013 brings the number of non-executive directors to five until the conclusion of the AGM, whereupon the composition of the Board will revert to four non-executive directors, the Chairman and five executive directors. The Board believes that the diversity of skills and experience which the executive directors bring to the Board (particularly in relation to their own operating divisions) is more valuable than maintaining parity between the number of executive and non-executive directors. Furthermore, the Board considers its non-executive directors to be sufficiently independent and of such calibre and number that their views may be expected to be of sufficient weight that no individual or small group can dominate the Board’s decision-making processes. the boArd operation of the board The Board has a formal schedule of matters reserved for its decision, whilst day-to-day operational decisions are managed by the Executive Board, as referred to on page 51.In order to facilitate the efficient use of its time the Board has delegated certain of its powers to Board committees, details of which are set out later in this report. From time to time the Board also establishes certain other committees to deal with a specific issue which the Board has approved.Key matters dealt with by the Board during the course of the year, in addition to ongoing monitoring of the operational and financial performance of the Group, were:• setting the health, safety and environmental targets for the Group;• reviewing the Group’s strategic direction, governance, ethics and values;• approving the sale of the Group’s PFI assets and, subject to shareholder approval, the transfer of assets into the pension scheme;• approving the acquisition of BEST, Advantage Healthcare and TOCO;• setting the Group’s annual budget and plan;• approval of the annual and half-year report;• declaration of the interim and recommendation of the final dividend;• ensuring the maintenance of a sound system of internal controls and an effective risk management and assurance strategy;• monitoring the effectiveness of the Group’s Health and Safety Policy;• control over major contract (including joint ventures) and capital expenditure; and• approving the Group’s sustainability plan.board composition The role of the Group Chairman and Chief Executive are split and clearly defined in written terms of reference.the role of the ChairmanThe Group Chairman is responsible for the leadership of the Board and creating the conditions for overall Board and individual director effectiveness, both inside and outside the boardroom. The Group Chairman, assisted by the Company Secretary, sets the agenda for Board meetings and ensures that Board members receive timely information and are briefed on issues arising at Board meetings to assist them in making an effective contribution. the role of the Chief executiveThe Chief Executive bears primary responsibility for the management of the Group and in leading the formulation of and, once set by the Board, implementing strategy. The Chief Executive chairs the Executive Board and Risk Committee, leads the executive management team and investor communications and is responsible for social and ethical matters within the Group.the role of the Company secretaryThe Company Secretary is responsible for distributing Board papers and other information sufficiently far in advance of each meeting for the directors to be properly briefed, presenting certain papers to the Board and its committees, advising on Board procedures and ensuring the Board follows them.The Board papers include information from management on financial, business and corporate issues. Matters requiring Board and committee approval are generally the subject of a written proposal and circulated as part of the Board papers.50 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe CorporAte GovernAnCenon-executive director independence and appointmentsThe Group Chairman and the non-executive directors are considered by the Board to be independent in character and judgement and free from any relationships or circumstances which are likely to affect, or could appear to affect, their judgement.The non-executive directors have complementary skills, experience and qualifications in a wide range of economic sectors and so are able to bring independent judgement to bear on matters for consideration.On 1 January 2013 Anne Fahy was appointed as a non-executive director. At the conclusion of the AGM on 13 May 2013 David Trapnell will retire from the Board, Les Cullen will succeed him as Senior Independent Director and Anne Fahy will replace Les Cullen as chair of the Audit Committee.The Senior Independent Director is available to shareholders should they have any concerns which contact through other channels has failed to resolve or for which such contact may be inappropriate. He also provides a sounding board for the Chairman and serves as an intermediary for the other directors when necessary.As at 31 December 2012 the Board comprised eleven members: the Group Chairman, six executive and four non-executive directors.Meetings The Board normally meets monthly throughout the year and on an ad hoc basis to consider any matters which are time-critical. Attendance at Board and committee meetings is set out in the table below.BoardAudit RemunerationNominationNumber of Meetings15565Lord Blackwell1565L G Cullen15565S L Dance15T P Haywood15K L Ludeman15465D J Paterson15B A Melizan15A M Ringrose155D I Sutherland15D A Thorpe13564D A Trapnell15565The Board also holds a strategy day in January each year to review the strategic direction of the Group.The Group Chairman held one formal session with the non-executive directors without any executive directors being present and a number of informal discussions both with and without the Chief Executive being present. The non-executive directors also met once during the year, under the chairmanship of the Senior Independent Director, without either the Group Chairman or the executive directors being present. board induction, time commitment and developmentOn appointment, new directors take part in an induction programme arranged by the Company Secretary, which includes training on the duties of a listed company director by the Group’s corporate lawyers, meetings with management and other corporate advisers, and operational site visits.An ongoing programme of site visits, staff meetings and business presentations provides additional opportunities for the Chairman and non-executive directors to visit various operations of the Group and to receive insight and feedback from employees. During the year under review each of the non-executive directors attended at least two seminars and/or other non-executive forums relevant to their role.Development below Board level has been through the Trusted Partner Programme, a Group-wide leadership development programme established to support the ambitious vision of the business. The programme includes topics associated with the new corporate vision, values and SustainAbilities plan. To help achieve the vision, the programme aims to enhance leadership capability as well as strategic relationships across the different businesses within the Group. performance evaluationDuring the course of the year the performance of the directors was reviewed by the Group Chairman and the Chief Executive and, in the case of the Chief Executive, by the Group Chairman, having consulted with other directors. The Group Chairman’s performance was reviewed by the Senior Independent Director who held separate meetings with each of the directors and the Company Secretary. The overall time commitment of the non-executive directors in the attendance of Board meetings/visits was in the order of 15 days in addition to the time taken to read Board papers and attendance at four meetings held by the Group Chairman.The Board evaluation was undertaken this year by the Senior Independent Director by means of a structured interview with each director, the Company Secretary, the Group Financial Controller, the Director of Communications and the external audit partner.The results of the review were that the Board remains effective, having generated long-term shareholder value. Corporate governance was considered to be strong, with a high degree of trust and honesty existing between Board members. The non-executive directors were considered to possess the relevant experience required by the Board and provide an appropriate level of constructive challenge.The Audit, Remuneration and Nomination committees also conducted a review of their terms of reference and their performance against them. overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe CorporAte GovernAnCe 51Information and supportIndividual directors may, after consultation with the Group Chairman, take independent legal advice in furtherance of their duties at the Company’s expense up to a limit of £10,000 in relation to any one event.

All directors have access to the advice and services of the Company Secretary, whose appointment or removal is a matter reserved for the approval of the Board or any duly delegated committee thereof. election and re-electionAnne Fahy will submit herself for election by shareholders at the AGM on 13 May 2013. All remaining directors (save for David Paterson and David Trapnell) will submit themselves for re-election at the AGM.Biographical details for each of the directors standing for election or re-election are set out on pages 40 and 41.IndemnitiesAs permitted by the Company’s Articles of Association, qualifying third party indemnities have been in place throughout the period under review and remain in force at the date of this report in respect of liabilities suffered or incurred by each director. The Company also undertakes to loan such funds to a director as it, in its reasonable discretion, considers appropriate for the director to meet expenditure incurred by him in defending any criminal or civil proceeding or in connection with any application under section 661(3) or 1157 of the Companies Act 2006 on terms which require repayment by the director of amounts so advanced upon conviction of final judgment being given against him. The deeds of indemnity are available for inspection by shareholders at the Company’s registered office. The Company also maintains an appropriate level of directors’ and officers’ insurance in respect of legal actions against the directors. Neither the qualifying third party indemnities nor the insurance provide cover where the director has acted fraudulently or dishonestly.eXeCutIve boArdThe Executive Board, which, during the year, comprised the executive directors and the Company Secretary, is chaired by the Chief Executive. On 1 January 2013 Ian Renhard and George Franks joined the Executive Board.The Executive Board, which met 11 times during the course of the year, is responsible for the operational management and delivery against budget and forecast of the Group, implementing resolutions of the Board, formulation of strategy, annual budgets and other proposals for consideration by the Board, the identification and evaluation for consideration by the Board of risks faced by the Group and for designing, operating and monitoring a suitable system of internal control embracing the policies adopted by the Board.

These are available on the Company’s website at www.interserve.com and on request. The terms of reference are considered at least annually by the committee.MeetingsThe committee met five times during the year. The external auditors were present at four of the meetings and the Head of Internal Audit and representatives from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”), the provider of the internal audit function, were present at two of the meetings. The Group Chairman, Chief Executive, Group Finance Director and Group Financial Controller attended the meetings by invitation.52 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe CorporAte GovernAnCeThe committee has taken the opportunity to seek the views of the external and internal auditors in private and both the external and internal auditors have the opportunity to address the committee in private at any time should they so wish.overview of actionsDuring the year the committee: • reviewed the 2011 annual report and financial statements and the 2012 half-year report. As part of each review the committee received a report from the external auditors on their audit of the 2011 annual report and their review of the 2012 half-year report respectively;• reviewed, prior to their consideration by the Board, the representation letters to be given to the external auditors in respect of the 2011 annual report and the 2012 half-year report;• reviewed audit effectiveness following the audit of the 2011 annual report;• reviewed and approved the external auditors’ terms of engagement for the 2012 half-yearly review and for the audit of the 2012 annual report;• made a recommendation to the Board that the external auditors should continue in office for the 2013 financial year;• received a briefing from the Group Finance Director on the principal judgements made by the Board in determining the half-year report and an update prior to the full year end;• considered and agreed the scope and fees to be paid to the external auditors;• considered putting the external audit out to tender: this matter will be kept under review, bearing in mind the duration of audit provision by the incumbent auditors and audit partner rotation;• received an update on the Group’s monitoring of fraud risk assessment; • monitored non-audit fees in comparison to the audit fees in accordance with the Company’s policy on the provision of non-audit services (as detailed in External Auditor Objectivity and Independence below);• received regular reports on the progress of whistle-blowing matters;• reviewed the Company’s liability as a shareholder in its overseas associates and the effectiveness of the Group’s control over joint ventures and associated companies; and • conducted an evaluation exercise to review its own effectiveness.The committee chairman reported to the Board on the work carried out, including any improvement actions required, and copies of the minutes of committee meetings were included within the Board papers.external auditThe committee considers and makes recommendations to the Board as regards audit matters. The committee also seeks to ensure co-ordination between the activities of the external and internal auditors and reviews the effectiveness of the audit at the end of the audit cycle.external auditor objectivity and independenceThe committee assessed the external auditors’ objectivity and independence and the effectiveness of the external audit process at the end of the 2011 audit cycle and again at the year end and concluded that Deloitte LLP remains independent. The Company has a policy which prohibits the auditors auditing their own work, making management decisions, entering into any arrangement in relation to audit work whereby a joint interest is created between the Company and the auditors, acting in the role of advocate for the Company or being appointed as recruitment consultants without the committee’s prior consent. The policy also contains a set of authority limits governing the award by management of various categories of non-audit work to the auditors. The committee concluded that the nature and extent of non-audit fees, which related primarily to tax and VAT advice offered by Deloitte and the review of the half-year report and which amounted to 18 per cent and 7 per cent of the overall audit fees, respectively (excluding accountancy and transactional advice given with regard to the Class 1 transaction that resulted in the disposal by the Group of certain of its PFI assets – which amounted to 5 per cent of the overall audit fee), did not compromise auditor independence.In the case of the work on the above-mentioned Class 1 transaction, the committee concluded that Deloitte’s expertise and experience and knowledge of the Group made them best placed to efficiently deliver the service. The committee was satisfied that the safeguards implemented by Deloitte, including the use of specialists independent of the audit, were sufficient to maintain auditor objectivity and independence.Further details of the audit and non-audit fees paid to the auditors are included in note 4 to the financial statements on page 88. A change in audit partner is made every five years in accordance with latest guidance and best practice. There are no contractual obligations that restrict the committee’s choice of external auditors. Internal auditThe function of internal audit is to provide an independent and objective appraisal to the Board, through the Audit Committee, of the adequacy and effectiveness of the processes established to control the business and to assist the Board in meeting its objectives and discharging its responsibilities. overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe CorporAte GovernAnCe 53The committee monitors and assesses the role and effectiveness of internal audit in the overall context of the Group’s risk management system and review. The internal audit programme of work is risk based, with all business activities and financial reporting processes considered for internal audit review each year. The work is carried out by PwC under an outsource contract, renewable annually.The details of the internal audit programme are submitted to the Audit Committee for approval, and may be modified (subject to agreement of the Audit Committee) based on changing circumstances.The Internal Audit partner has direct access to the Chairman of the Audit Committee.The committee received a summary of each internal audit review covering the findings, proposed corrective actions and management’s responsiveness to those findings and recommendations.Reports produced during the year covered matters such as: • a review of certain business units in the Middle East;• business continuity and information security across the Group;• back-to-basics reviews of certain of the Group’s operations;• a review of the commercial management of various contracts;• a review of certain procure-to-pay cycles;• a review of a division’s central HR and payroll functions;• a review of a division’s IT controls; and• financial control health checks for certain of the Group’s operations.The committee also agreed an internal audit work plan for 2013, designed to provide core assurance against areas identified as high risk together with further assurance on some of the medium-risk areas identified for rotational testing.overviewAfter undertaking a review of its own performance the committee concluded that it had been effective in discharging the obligations entrusted to it by the Board.The Chairman of the Audit Committee will be available at the AGM to answer questions about the work of the committee.noMInAtIon CoMMIttee The Nomination Committee is chaired by the Group Chairman and the majority of the members are independent non-executive directors. External consultants are used for new appointments. The committee keeps the Board structure, size and composition, balance of skills and knowledge and experience (both executive and non-executive) under review and makes recommendations for any changes to the Board. The committee’s terms of reference set out clearly its authority and duties, and are available on the Company’s website at www.interserve.com and on request.Business conducted during the year included the selection and appointment of Anne Fahy as non-executive director, recommendations to the Board for the re-election of retiring directors at the AGM, reviews of Board structure and composition and senior management succession and development up to and including those at Board level, and Board succession planning. The effectiveness of the committee and its terms of reference were also reviewed. The Zygos Partnership, which has no connection with the Company, was engaged to assist in the appointment of Anne Fahy.The Company’s policy relating to the terms of appointment and remuneration of the executive and non-executive directors is detailed in the Directors’ Remuneration Report on pages 56 to 68.The terms and conditions of appointment of all the non-executive directors and those of the Group Chairman are available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours. Each letter of appointment specifies the anticipated level of time commitment.Non-executive directors and the Group Chairman are required to confirm, on appointment, that they have sufficient time to meet what is expected of them and to seek the committee chairman’s agreement, or in the case of the Group Chairman, the Senior Independent Director’s agreement, before accepting additional commitments that might impact upon the time they are able to devote to their role as a non-executive director of the Company.The Group’s Diversity Policy states that diversity in all its forms is fundamental to the Group’s business. It is available on the website at www.interserve.com/sustainability/policies. The goal is to recruit, motivate, develop and retain outstanding people that reflect the Group’s diversity of skills, cultural backgrounds and gender. The Board monitors the extent to which the Group is meeting this objective and is committed to taking action where necessary or helpful to promote equal opportunity.Good evidence of our achievements in this area was the Investors in Diversity accreditation by the National Centre for Diversity given to our Construction business, the first construction company to be so recognised.We have already increased the diversity of the Board and would expect the policy to lead to greater diversity on the Board and divisional boards over time.We will monitor our success in developing the diversity of the Board as part of our annual evaluation of Board effectiveness.54 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe CorporAte GovernAnCereMunerAtIon CoMMIttee The Remuneration Committee, composed entirely of independent non-executive directors, is chaired by David Thorpe.

It formally reviews the Group’s register of risks and mitigation plans twice a year and discusses any significant developments in risk exposure as and when appropriate.As discussed on page 51, the Executive Board has a key role in risk management. In order to assist it with discharging this responsibility the Executive Board constituted a Risk Committee.The committee, which met four times during the year, comprises the Chief Executive, Group Finance Director, Group Health, Safety and Environmental Manager, Group Insurance Manager, the Group Company Secretary (who is its secretary), the Group General Counsel and a representative from each of the Group’s operating divisions. The internal audit partner has a standing invitation to attend. The committee has written terms of reference and provides copies of its meeting minutes to the Board.The business covered during the year included: reviews of the Group’s prime risk areas and of contract risk allocation and control; business continuity planning and IT disaster recovery; information security risk assessment; regular reviews of the risks presented by forthcoming legislation; and updates on current insurance, internal audit, health and safety and IT developments.FInAnCIAl And busIness dIsClosures In order to present a balanced assessment of the Company’s position and prospects, the Annual Report contains a Directors’ Responsibility Statement on page 69, an Independent Auditors’ Report about their reporting responsibilities on page 70 and a going concern statement on page 30. An explanation of the Company’s business model and strategy for delivering the Company’s objectives is set out on pages 8 and 9. The Directors’ Report contained on pages 42 to 47, of which this Corporate Governance report forms part, contains the information required by paragraph 13(2)(c),(d),(f),(h) and (i) of Schedule 7 to the Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008.Control proCesses The Board has a continuous process for identifying, evaluating and managing the significant risks the Group faces together with an ongoing process to embed internal control and risk management further into the operations of the businesses. This has been in place for the period under review and until the date of approval of this Annual Report and Financial Statements. The Audit Committee, the Risk Committee and Executive Board assist the Board in the application of these principles.The Board has documented a risk management policy setting out the prime risk areas including the threats, risk indicators, control strategy and sources of assurance. The policy is included within the Group’s internal controls manual. Internal controls are normally reviewed by the Board in advance of the publication of the Group’s half-year and annual reports.The Board received and reviewed bi-annual reports from the Executive Board on the effectiveness of the Group’s system of internal control for the period under review and implements improvements from time to time in order to strengthen the control processes.Because of the limitations that are inherent in any system of internal control, the Group’s system of internal control is designed to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure to achieve business objectives, and can only provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. The Group’s governance framework distinguishes between entities which are wholly controlled and joint ventures and associate companies in which the Group does not have overall control. For these joint ventures and associate companies, systems of internal control are applied as agreed between the Group and the other joint-venture parties or members of the associate company, as the case may be. overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe CorporAte GovernAnCe 55Financial reportingBased on submissions from the trading divisions, a budget is prepared by the Group for approval by the Board before the start of each financial year. Subsequently, forecasts of prospective financial performance are prepared as at the end of March, May and September of each year. Budgets and forecasts include the financial results, financial position and cash flows for each division and the Group Centre.The Group has risk management systems and documented accounting policies and procedures to be applied by all entities in the Group in submitting their financial statements for consolidation to ensure that adequate accounting records are maintained and transactions are recorded accurately and fairly to permit the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.Each month, every entity within the Group submits management accounts in local currency to the Group Finance team. The consolidated management accounts include the financial results, financial position, cash flows and projections and are submitted, along with analytical commentary, to the Executive Board and subsequently the Board for review. The management accounts submitted by members of the Group for June and December are used to prepare the half-yearly and annual financial statements. The Group Finance team reviews the disclosures in the financial statements to ensure that they comply with applicable reporting standards. The half-yearly and annual financial statements are reviewed by the Executive Board, the Audit Committee and the Board before publication.The financial reporting process is reviewed periodically by internal audit in accordance with the programme approved by the Audit Committee each year. A summary of the key financial risks inherent in the Group’s business is given on page 29 and 30 a description of how the Group manages those risks is set out on pages 22 and 23. operational controlsThe principal features of the Group’s system of operational control are:• An established management structure comprising the Board with its various committees and an Executive Board.• Executive Board and Board review of the monthly finance and divisional trading reports. • Documented delegated authority limits which are kept under regular review. Larger value proposals and business acquisitions and disposals are controlled by the Board.• Manuals setting out Group policy and procedures, with which all Group companies must comply. • The Group has certain key areas which are subject to central management or control, which include health, safety and environmental policies, legal, insurance, tax & treasury, real estate, internal and external communication, investor relations, information technology network services and operating systems and company secretarial. These functions report to members of the Executive Board.• One or more members of the Executive Board and, in many cases, either the Chief Executive or the Group Finance Director, attend divisional board meetings.• During the course of each year members of the Executive Board or other senior operational and financial management visit or review all trading companies to discuss and monitor the performance of those businesses.• The Group has in place a whistle-blowing policy which sets out a framework for dealing with any allegations of fraud, financial misreporting and any whistle-blowing notification. A copy of the policy is available on the Company’s website at www.interserve.com.our shAreholdersThe Company encourages two-way communication with both institutional and private investors. The Chief Executive, accompanied by the Group Finance Director, attended 55 meetings with analysts and institutional investors during the year ended 31 December 2012. In addition, the Chief Executive, the Group Finance Director and the Group Chairman, attended a further two, 23 and three meetings each, respectively.The Company’s brokers produce periodic notes of the feedback from institutional investors which are reported to the Board. All directors and the members of the Executive Board also have the opportunity to attend analyst briefings.The Group’s annual and half-yearly results, interim management statements, trading updates, presentations given to analysts and all announcements made through the RIS are published on the Company’s website at www.interserve.com. All shareholders are given at least 20 working days’ notice of the AGM. It is standard practice for all directors to attend the AGM to which all shareholders are invited and at which they may put questions to the chairmen of the various committees or the Board generally. The proxy votes for and against each resolution, as well as abstentions (which may be recorded on the proxy form accompanying the notice of AGM) are counted before the AGM commences and are made available to shareholders at the close of the formal business of the meeting. The proxy votes are also announced through the RIS and posted on the Company’s website shortly after the close of the meeting.56 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe DIreCtors’ remunerAtIon reportDIreCtors’ remunerAtIon reportDear Shareholder I am pleased to present the Remuneration Committee’s annual report on directors’ remuneration. The Directors’ Remuneration Report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of current legislation, but in response to the UK Government’s new legislation regarding the reporting of directors’ remuneration and changes to the voting rights, we have incorporated a number of the revised reporting requirements into this year’s report.The Group’s management has delivered good results in 2012 against the background of mixed market conditions. In particular, underlying headline earnings per share has increased by 8 per cent and good progress was made on a number of strategic fronts. From our PFI interests we realised £119 million in cash and effected a £55 million asset transfer to our pension scheme, completed in January 2013. This represents an excellent performance in delivering enhanced value from these investments through sustained management of the underlying projects. We also increased our involvement in the delivery of front-line services to the public in the UK through our acquisition of Interserve Working Futures and Advantage Healthcare and expanded our presence in the oil and gas services sector in the Middle East through the acquisition of TOCO in January 2013. Our share price increased by 21.21 per cent over the year, slightly outperforming our sector.During the year the Remuneration Committee (the “Committee”) was again mindful of the general restraint on pay across the Group. The salaries of the executive directors were, with the exception of one incremental increase, increased by 2.5 per cent from 1 July 2012 which was broadly in line with the average increase in salaries across the entire business.The performance conditions for the annual variable pay arrangements were set such that the budgeted normalised earnings per share (“EPS”) had to be achieved before any benefit could be derived from the additional normalised EPS arising from the sale of the Group’s PFI assets. Performance was strong, leading to a bonus payment of 100 per cent.The increase in award levels under the Company’s Performance Share Plan from 100 per cent to 150 per cent of basic salary for the Executive Board was accompanied by significantly more demanding EPS performance conditions which require EPS in 2014 to be marginally ahead of the rate of increase in EPS that would result in a doubling of earnings per share over the five-year period from a 2010 base in order for the awards to pay out in full.However, the Committee remains conscious of the need to strike an appropriate balance between incentivising senior management, providing stretching targets which support the Board’s strategic ambitions whilst, at the same time, not encouraging excessive risk taking.Total remuneration therefore remains close to (but not in excess of) mid-market levels for similar sized FTSE 250 businesses.The Committee is mindful that executive pay remains a highly topical issue and continues to monitor best practice and regulatory guidance to ensure that our policy retains a good link between reward to executives and the performance of the business.A resolution seeking an advisory vote on both the Policy Report and Implementation Report will be put to shareholders at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting and I very much hope that you will vote in favour. David thorpe Chairman of the Remuneration Committee1 Share price at 1 January 2012 was 320.7p and at 31 December 2012 was 388.8pDAvID tHorpe CHAIRMAN OF THE REMUNERATION COMMITTEE overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ reMunerAtIon report 57reMunerAtIon polICy report This part of the Directors’ Remuneration Report sets out the remuneration policy for the Company with effect from 1 January 2013. In setting and reviewing the remuneration policy for the executive directors, the Committee takes into account a range of different reference points. Key issues which it considers are:• the economic climate in the sectors and geographies in which the Company operates;• remuneration policies and practices across the Group as a whole; and• the culture and strategy of the business.reMunerAtIon polICy ACross the GroupThe remuneration policy for the executive directors is designed with regard to the policy for employees across the Group as a whole. There are some differences in the structure of the remuneration policy for executive directors and other senior employees, which the Committee believes are necessary to reflect the different levels of responsibility of employees across the Group. In particular, as remuneration levels overall are higher, performance-linked variable pay comprises a much higher proportion of remuneration at more senior levels and there is more of a focus on Group results, rather than business unit or individual performance. This provides a stronger alignment of interest between senior executives and investors.For less senior staff, variable pay comprises annual bonus only (participation in the PSP is limited to the top 130 or so senior employees) coupled with the opportunity to participate in the SIP and Sharesave Scheme.58 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe DIreCtors’ remunerAtIon reportelement of pAypurpose AnD lInk to CompAny’s strAteGyHow operAteD In prACtICemAxImum opportunItyDesCrIptIon of performAnCe metrICsCHAnGes In 2013BBBaaassseee sssaaalllaaarrryyyTTTooo rrreeecccrrruuuiiittt aaannnddd mmmaaaiiinnntttaaaiiinnn eeexxxeeecccuuutttiiivvveeesss ooofff aaa sssuuuiiitttaaabbbllleee cccaaallliiibbbrrreee fffooorrr ttthhheee rrrooollleee aaannnddd ddduuutttiiieeesss rrreeeqqquuuiiirrreeeddd...RRReeevvviiieeewwweeeddd aaannnnnnuuuaaallllllyyy wwwiiittthhh iiinnncccrrreeeaaassseeesss fffrrrooommm JJJuuulllyyy...

PSP awards are granted every year to senior executives.The awards will vest no earlier than the third anniversary of the date of grant, provided that the performance conditions have been satisfied over a three-year period and the participant is still employed.Dividends notionally accrue on awards from the date of award and an equivalent cash sum will become payable on vesting to the extent that the shares ultimately vest.Awards will be made in the form of nil-cost options, exercisable between April 2016 and April 2018.150 per cent of basic salary (at the date of grant) for the executive directors.Lower award levels with an EPS-only performance condition will be granted to less senior executives.Performance conditions for two-thirds of the award will be dependent upon EPS targets, with the balance on total shareholder return (TSR):EPS performance range adjusted for 2013 awards compared to 2012 awards.The Committee considers that a combination of normalised EPS and TSR for the Executive Board remains the most appropriate measure of performance for awards made under the Plan. The EPS target rewards significant and sustained increases in value and delivers strong “line of sight” for the Executive Board whilst the TSR performance condition provides balance by rewarding good relative stock market performance and introduces an element of share price-based discipline to the package. The blend of these two complementary measures is considered to reduce the risk level of the Plan compared to the position if a single metric applied to the entire award.PPPeeennnsssiiiooonnnTTTooo ppprrrooovvviiidddeee bbbeeennneeefffiiitttsss cccooommmmmmeeennnsssuuurrraaattteee tttooo ttthhheee mmmaaarrrkkkeeettt iiinnn wwwhhhiiiccchhh ttthhheee cccooommmpppaaannnyyy ooopppeeerrraaattteeesss...AAA CCCooommmpppaaannnyyy cccooonnntttrrriiibbbuuutttiiiooonnn cccaaalllcccuuulllaaattteeeddd aaattt 111555 pppeeerrr ccceeennnttt ooofff bbbaaassseee sssaaalllaaarrryyy fffooorrr eeexxxeeecccuuutttivvveee dddiiirrreeeccctttooorrrsss aaannnddd ooottthhheeerrr ssseeennniiiooorrr eeemmmpppllloooyyyeeeeeesss...EEEmmmpppllloooyyyeeeeeesss wwwhhhooossseee pppeeennnsssiiiooonnn ppprrrooovvviiisssiiiooonnn eeexxxccceeeeeedddsss HHHMMMRRRCCC llliiimmmiiitttsss aaarrreee pppeeerrrmmmiiitttttteeeddd tttooo ooopppttt ooouuuttt ooofff mmmaaakkkiiinnnggg pppeeennnsssiiiooonnn cccooonnntttrrriiibbbuuutttiiiooonnnsss aaannnddd iiinnnsssttteeeaaaddd rrreeeccceeeiiivvveee ttthhheee CCCooommmpppaaannnyyy cccooonnntttrrriiibbbuuutttiiiooonnn aaasss aaa sssaaalllaaarrryyy sssuuuppppppllleeemmmeeennnttt...EEEmmmpppllloooyyyeeeeeesss wwwhhhooo eeellleeecccttt tttooo tttaaakkkeee ttthhheee cccaaassshhh aaallllllooowwwaaannnccceee ssstttiiillllll bbbeeennneeefffiiittt fffrrrooommm ttthhheee llliiifffeee cccooovvveeerrr ooofff fffooouuurrr tttiiimmmeeesss sssaaalllaaarrryyy ppprrrooovvviiidddeeeddd tttooo mmmeeemmmbbbeeerrrsss ooofff ttthhheee pppeeennnsssiiiooonnn sssccchhheeemmmeee aaannnddd dddeeeaaattthhh---iiinnn---ssseeerrrvvviiiccceee cccooovvveeerrr...

If an executive director’s shareholding in the Company is less than 100 per cent of his basic salary, a percentage of the net Variable Pay receivable in excess of 25 per cent of basic salary is required to be invested in Company shares in accordance with the arrangements stated below:a) for the balance of any Variable Pay received between 25 per cent and 50 per cent of basic salary, 30 per cent of the net Variable Pay must be invested in Company shares and 70 per cent may be retained; andb) for the balance of any Variable Pay received between 50 per cent and 100 per cent of basic salary, 50 per cent of the net Variable Pay must be invested in Company shares and 50 per cent may be retained.Company shares so acquired must be held for three years.Clawback applies to any overpayment of Annual Variable Pay in the event of misstatement, error or misconduct.Performance Share Plan (PSP)To provide a longer term incentive to reward executive directors for achieving the Group’s ambition of doubling earnings per share over the five-year period from 2010.To provide alignment with shareholders and provide a retention tool. PSP awards are granted every year to senior executives.The awards will vest no earlier than the third anniversary of the date of grant, provided that the performance conditions have been satisfied over a three-year period and the participant is still employed.Dividends notionally accrue on awards from the date of award and an equivalent cash sum will become payable on vesting to the extent that the shares ultimately vest.Awards will be made in the form of nil-cost options, exercisable between April 2016 and April 2018.150 per cent of basic salary (at the date of grant) for the executive directors.Lower award levels with an EPS-only performance condition will be granted to less senior executives.Performance conditions for two-thirds of the award will be dependent upon EPS targets, with the balance on total shareholder return (TSR):EPS performance range adjusted for 2013 awards compared to 2012 awards.The Committee considers that a combination of normalised EPS and TSR for the Executive Board remains the most appropriate measure of performance for awards made under the Plan. The EPS target rewards significant and sustained increases in value and delivers strong “line of sight” for the Executive Board whilst the TSR performance condition provides balance by rewarding good relative stock market performance and introduces an element of share price-based discipline to the package. The blend of these two complementary measures is considered to reduce the risk level of the Plan compared to the position if a single metric applied to the entire award.PensionTo provide benefits commensurate to the market in which the company operates.A Company contribution calculated at 15 per cent of base salary for executive directors and other senior employees.Employees whose pension provision exceeds HMRC limits are permitted to opt out of making pension contributions and instead receive the Company contribution as a salary supplement.Employees who elect to take the cash allowance still benefit from the life cover of four times salary provided to members of the pension scheme and death-in-service cover. Adrian Ringrose and Bruce Melizan made such an election and have, since 1 January 2012 and 1 April 2012 respectivelyyy,,, been receiving a salary supplement of 15 per cent of base salary in lieu of any employer pension contribution.All the executive directors (with the exception of Adrian Ringrose and Bruce Melizan since 1 January 2012 and 1 April 2012, respectively) participated during the year in the Company’s “SMART Pensions” arrangement. SMART Pensions is a salary sacrifice arrangement set up by the Company providing an option for employee pension contributions to be met by their employer following a corresponding sacrifice in their contractual pay. This scheme affords the Company a saving in employer’s National Insurance contributions.NNN///AAANNN///AAANNN///AAARecruitmentWere any new executive director appointments to be made, the Committee may adopt an approach involving a lower base salary with incremental increases in excess of the cost of living as the new appointee becomes established within the role.Shareholding guidelinesUnder the Shareholding Guidelines executive directors are expected to retain no fewer than 100 per cent of shares net of taxes following an option exercise or award vesting, until such time as a shareholding equivalent to 100 per cent of their base salary has been achieved. Shares purchased under the Annual Variable Pay arrangements (see above), Sharesave Scheme and SIP count toward this limit. 2Normalised EPS is Headline earnings per share adjusted to reflect growth in underlying value created by (a) removing the impact of IAS 19 & IAS 19R Pensions, IAS 36 Impairment of assets and IAS 39 Financial Instruments; and (b) recognising or removing “one off” events at the discretion of the committee. For the 2013 awards vesting in 2016, the committee intends that the award will reflect the underlying earnings growth, in line with our strategic ambitions.Normalised EPS2 growth of the Company over the performance periodVesting percentage of two-thirds of shares subject to the awardLess than 49%0%49% to 58%25% to 50%58% to 75%50% to 100%Over 75%100%TSR ranking of the Company compared to the Comparator Group over the performance periodVesting percentage of one-third of shares subject to the awardBelow median ranking0%Median ranking 30%Median to upper quartile ranking30% to 100% (pro-rated)60 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ reMunerAtIon report Median Upper Quartile100%75%50%25%0%percentage vesting for one-thirdof awardtsr ranking of the CompanylonG-terM reWArdsThe performance conditions for the 2013 PSP awards to the Executive Board will be structured as follows:earnings per share growthContinuing with the strategic focus of doubling EPS over the five-year period from a 2010 base, vesting of two-thirds of an award will be dependent upon growth in normalised EPS1 (over a three-year performance period, commencing on the first day of the 2013 financial year) to meet this trajectory. This sliding scale of EPS performance and vesting is shown graphically below:Growth in normalised EPS will be determined by the Committee after verifying calculations made internally.total shareholder returnVesting of the other third of an award will be dependent upon the Company’s performance in terms of TSR, as measured against the TSR of each company in the comparator group listed below (the “Comparator Group”) over a three-year performance period, commencing on the first day of the 2013 financial year. TSR is calculated as the percentage change in the net return index from the start to the end of the performance period2. This measures the return to an investor on a holding of Interserve shares. The Comparator Group is drawn from the Construction & Materials and Support Services FTSE sectors. Many of the Comparator Group companies are recognised by the Executive Board as competitors of the Company, which ensures that this is an effective incentive from their perspective:Atkins (WS)May Gurney Integrated ServicesBabcock InternationalMITIE GroupBalfour BeattyMorgan SindallCapita GroupRentokil InitialCarillionRPS GroupCostain GroupSercoKier Group 1 Normalised EPS is Headline earnings per share adjusted to reflect growth in underlying value created by (a) removing the impact of IAS 19 & IAS 19R Pensions, IAS 36 Impairment of assets and IAS 39 Financial Instruments; and (b) recognising or removing “one off” events at the discretion of the committee. For the 2013 awards vesting in 2016, the committee intends that the award will reflect the underlying earnings growth, in line with our strategic ambitions.2 The return index at the start of the performance period is the average of the net return index over the three months preceding the start of the performance period. The return index at the end of the performance period is the average of the return index over the last three months of the performance period.This sliding scale of TSR performance and vesting is shown graphically below:The chart below shows how the executive directors’ remuneration packages vary at below threshold, threshold, target and maximum performance, by looking at the level of below target and target remuneration as a proportion of the maximum remuneration. This shows that almost 70 per cent of the remuneration is delivered via Annual Variable Pay and performance share awards at maximum payout levels under both plans.All-employee share schemesIn order to support the Company’s Employer of Choice goal and to encourage share ownership, the Company currently provides two all-employee HMRC-approved share schemes for its employees, the Interserve Sharesave Scheme 2009 (the “Sharesave Scheme”) and the Interserve Share Incentive Plan 2009 (the “SIP”). The executive directors are entitled to participate in both the Sharesave Scheme and the SIP.It is proposed to make a further grant under the Sharesave Scheme to eligible employees in April 2013. In order to encourage a greater take-up rate, the exercise price for these awards will be set at 20 per cent below the average of the middle-market share price over the five dealing days immediately preceding the invitation date.Under the SIP, eligible employees are offered the opportunity to invest up to £1,500 per tax year of pre-tax earnings to buy shares in the Company under a regular monthly share purchase plan or by up to two lump sum payments per tax year or by a combination of the two. Shares so purchased are placed in trust. The shares can be released from the trust to participants at any time, but income tax and national insurance contributions are payable on their value should they be released within five years of their purchase date.below targeton targetMaximum salary pension Annual variable pay performance shares0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100%0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80%100%75%50%25%0%percentage vesting for two-thirdsof awardnormalised eps growth over performance period49%58%75% overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ reMunerAtIon report 61dilution limits Under present dilution limits the Company is permitted to allocate a rolling ten-year aggregate of up to 10 per cent of its ordinary share capital (12,684,939 shares) under all its share schemes.

The Committee will continue to keep under review the terms of executive directors’ service contracts.policy on executive directors taking external directorshipsWhile the Board is comfortable with the principle of executive directors sitting on another company board as a non-executive, none of the executive directors (save for Bruce Melizan who is an un-remunerated director of the Safer London Foundation) currently holds directorships of other companies in which the Company does not have a direct or indirect interest.perCentAGe ChAnGe In spend on pAy CoMpAred to proFIt And dIvIdend eXpendItureThe following chart sets out the percentage change in profit, dividends and overall spend on pay in 2012 compared to 2011:2012 £million2011 £millionPercentage changeHeadline pre-tax profit78.472.87.7%Dividends24.423.06.1%Employee remuneration costs1624.7602.13.8%1Further information is contained in note 6 to the financial statements on page 89.terMs oF AppoIntMent And Fees For Group ChAIrMAn And non-eXeCutIve dIreCtorsNon-executive directors are appointed initially until the first AGM of the Company following appointment, when they are required to stand for election by shareholders. Non-executive directors do not have service contracts, they are engaged by letters of appointment which are terminable upon one month’s notice by either party, without compensation, save for the Group Chairman whose appointment is terminable upon six months’ notice by either party, without compensation. The fees of the non-executive directors are determined by the Board as a whole, taking into account amounts paid by other similar-sized listed companies. The Group Chairman’s fee is reviewed annually by the Committee (without the Chairman present). The remuneration policy for the non-executive directors, other than the Group Chairman, is determined by a sub-committee of the Board comprising the Group Chairman and the executive directors. Non-executive directors receive a fee for carrying out their duties, together with additional fees for those non-executive directors who chair the primary Board committees (i.e. Audit and Remuneration Committees) and the Senior Independent Director.In December 2012 a full review of the annual basic fees of the Group Chairman and the non-executive directors was carried out which resulted in the Group Chairman’s fees being increased by £13,000 to £143,000 and the non-executive directors’ base fee being increased by £4,000 to £44,000, from January 2013. This is the first increase since January 2011.The current fee levels are set out in the table below:Annual fee £Base fee paid to all non-executive directors44,000Supplementary fees: Senior Independent Director7,000 Audit Committee Chairman6,000 Remuneration Committee Chairman5,000 Nomination Committee Chairman Group Chairman1 1 The Group Chairman receives no supplementary fee for chairing this committee.62 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ reMunerAtIon reportDetails of non-executive appointments held during the financial year ended 31 December 2012 are as follows:Name Date first appointedDate last re-electedLord Blackwell1 September 200516 May 2012L G Cullen1 October 200516 May 2012K L Ludeman1 January 201116 May 2012D A Thorpe1 January 200916 May 2012D A Trapnell11 July 200316 May 2012Anne Fahy was appointed to the Board on 1 January 2013 and will be proposed for election by shareholders at the forthcoming AGM on 13 May 2013.IMpleMentAtIon report hoW the reMunerAtIon CoMMIttee operAtes to set the reMunerAtIon polICyIn determining the executive directors’ remuneration, the Committee consulted with and received recommendations from Adrian Ringrose, the Chief Executive.

Executives are not present when matters affecting their own remuneration arrangements are decided.role and membershipThe Committee is responsible for determining, on behalf of the Board, the remuneration of all executive directors, the Group Chairman and the Company Secretary. The terms of reference of the Committee are available on the Company’s website at www.interserve.com and on request.The Committee’s role is, after consultation with the Group Chairman and/or the Chief Executive (except when determining their own remuneration), to set the remuneration policy and determine the individual remuneration and benefit packages of the Group Chairman, the Chief Executive and the senior management team, comprising the executive directors, the Company Secretary and the other senior executives below the Board who report to the Chief Executive. This includes formulating for Board approval long-term incentive plans which require shareholder consent and overseeing their operation. The Committee also monitors the terms of service for, and level and remuneration structure of, other senior management.The table below lists the members of the Committee who served during the year and are regarded as independent by the Board.

No member of the Committee has any personal financial interest in the Company (other than as a shareholder), any conflict of interest arising from cross-directorships, or any day-to-day involvement in running the business. No individual is present when matters relating directly to their own remuneration are discussed.eXternAl AdvIsersThe Committee is advised by NBS. The terms of NBS’s appointment and their performance is reviewed regularly by the Committee. NBS assists the Company annually by preparing an IFRS 2 option valuation relating to awards made under the Interserve Performance Share Plan 2006. The fee for this work was £2,000.NBS meets either on a one-to-one basis with the Committee Chairman, or with the Company Secretary present, as necessary, to discuss matters such as topical issues in remuneration which are of particular relevance to the Company or if there are specific pieces of work which the Committee requires to be undertaken.The total fees paid to NBS in respect of its services to the Committee during the year amounted to £17,500. These fees related to sundry ongoing advice, in line with NBS’s role of providing ongoing support and advice to the Committee over the entire remuneration year. This included:• advice upon the increase in award levels under the Company’s Performance Share Plan from 100 per cent to 150 per cent of basic salary for the Executive Board and the accompanying significant increase in the EPS performance conditions;• performance monitoring of the TSR element of the Performance Share Plan;• review of vesting documentation for the Performance Share Plan;• assistance with the drafting of the Directors’ Remuneration Report; and• updates on developments in remuneration practices. overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ reMunerAtIon report 63Any fees for major projects would normally be negotiated in advance of such a project being undertaken.NBS is a signatory to the Remuneration Consultants’ Code of Conduct.The total fees paid to Aon plc (the parent company of NBS) by the Group in the year, excluding collections of insurance premiums, were £72,500.

The performance conditions were set such that Annual Variable Pay of between 20 per cent and 100 per cent of basic salary would become payable upon achievement of between 96.5 per cent and 111 per cent of budgeted normalised EPS. A performance below 96.5 per cent of budgeted normalised EPS would result in no Annual Variable Pay becoming payable. The operation of the Annual Variable Pay scheme for the 2012 financial year resulted in a payment of 100 per cent of basic salary as at 31 December 2012 for each executive director, the details of which are shown in the table above.2 Reduced by SMART Pensions arrangement (see Table 2 on page 65).3 Inclusive of a 15 per cent salary supplement in lieu of pension contributions for Adrian Ringrose and Bruce Melizan with effect from 1 January 2012 (£67,017) and 1 April 2012 (£30,041) respectively. 4 The share price used to calculate the value of shares vesting for the total single figure of remuneration was 370.61p being the three-month average to 31 December 2012. This relates to the PSP awards that vest on 19 April 2013 based on the 2012 results. This value also includes a dividend equivalent of 55.4 pence per vested share.5 The remuneration for 2011 does not include the PSP awards that vested in March 2012, which explains the increase in year-on-year remuneration. overview governance business review financial statementsInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ reMunerAtIon report 65tAble 2 - dIreCtors’ pensIon entItleMentsDefined Contribution SchemeAll the executive directors, with the exception of Adrian Ringrose and Bruce Melizan with effect from 1 January 2012 and 1 April 2012 respectively, are members of the Defined Contribution section of the Scheme and participated in the Company’s SMART Pensions arrangement (as detailed on page 58).

Their accrued pensions at that date were £72,337 and £31,056 per annum respectively and these pensions will increase up to the point they draw their benefits broadly in line with price inflation. 66 Interserve AnnuAl report 2012 GovernAnCe dIreCtors’ reMunerAtIon reporttAble 3 - outstAndInG optIons And ltIp AWArdsshare optionsThe number of options over shares in the Company (pursuant to the 2002 Executive Share Option Scheme) held by each person who served as an executive director of the Company during the financial year, is shown below.

Under that law the directors are required to prepare the Group financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as adopted by the European Union and Article 4 of the IAS Regulation and have elected to prepare the parent Company financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (“UK GAAP”) (UK Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that period.In preparing the parent Company financial statements, the directors are required to:• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;• make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;• state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and• prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.In preparing the Group financial statements, International Accounting Standard 1 requires that directors:• properly select and apply accounting policies;• present information, including accounting policies, in a manner that provides relevant, reliable, comparable and understandable information;• provide additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements in IFRSs are insufficient to enable users to understand the impact of particular transactions, other events and conditions on the entity’s financial position and financial performance; and• make an assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.The directors confirm that, to the best of their knowledge:(a) the Company and Group financial statements in this Annual Report, which have been prepared in accordance with UK GAAP and IFRS, respectively, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit of the Company and of the Group taken as a whole; and(b) the Directors’ Report contained in this Annual Report includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the Company and the Group taken as a whole, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that they face.By order of the BoardA m ringrose t p Haywood Chief Executive Group Finance Director27 February 2013IIInnndddeeepppeeennndddeeennnttt aaauuudddIIItttooorrr’’’sss rrreeepppooorrrttt tttooo ttthhheee mmmeeemmmbbbeeerrrsss ooofff IIInnnttteeerrrssseeerrrvvveee ppplllccc 777000 IIInnnttteeerrrssseeerrrvvveee aaannnnnnuuuaaalll rrreeepppooorrrttt 222000111222 fInancIal statements IIInnndddeeepppeeennndddeeennnttt aaauuudddIIItttooorrr’’’sss rrreeepppooorrrttt tttooo ttthhheee mmmeeemmmbbbeeerrrsss ooofff IIInnnttteeerrrssseeerrrvvveee ppplllcccIntroductIonWWWeee hhhaaavvveee aaauuudddiiittteeeddd ttthhheee GGGrrrooouuuppp fffiiinnnaaannnccciiiaaalll ssstttaaattteeemmmeeennntttsss ooofff IIInnnttteeerrrssseeerrrvvveee PPPlllccc fffooorrr ttthhheee yyyeeeaaarrr eeennndddeeeddd 333111 DDDeeeccceeemmmbbbeeerrr 222000111222 wwwhhhiiiccchhh cccooommmppprrriiissseee ttthhheee CCCooonnnsssooollliiidddaaattteeeddd IIInnncccooommmeee SSStttaaattteeemmmeeennnttt,,, ttthhheee CCCooonnnsssooollliiidddaaattteeeddd SSStttaaattteeemmmeeennnttt ooofff CCCooommmppprrreeehhheeennnsssiiivvveee IIInnncccooommmeee,,, ttthhheee CCCooonnnsssooollliiidddaaattteeeddd BBBaaalllaaannnccceee SSShhheeeeeettt,,, ttthhheee CCCooonnnsssooollliiidddaaattteeeddd SSStttaaattteeemmmeeennnttt ooofff CCChhhaaannngggeeesss iiinnn EEEqqquuuiiitttyyy,,, ttthhheee CCCooonnnsssooollliiidddaaattteeeddd CCCaaassshhh FFFlllooowww SSStttaaattteeemmmeeennnttt,,, aaannnddd ttthhheee rrreeelllaaattteeeddd nnnooottteeesss 111 tttooo 333444...

Therefore, the Company will account for contributions to the scheme as if it were a defined contribution scheme. Note 30 to the Annual Report and Financial Statements of the Group sets out details of the IAS 19 net pension liability of £101.1 million (2011: £56.2 million).For defined contribution schemes, the amount recognised in the profit and loss account is equal to the contributions payable to the schemes during the year.The defined benefit scheme was closed on 31 December 2009 with the exception of passport members.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of items of income and expenditure in taxation computations in periods different from those in which they are included in the financial statements. Deferred tax is not provided on timing differences arising from the revaluation of fixed assets where there is no commitment to sell the asset, or on unremitted earnings of subsidiaries or associates where there is no commitment to remit these earnings. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is regarded as more likely than not that they will be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.fffiiinnnaaannnccciiiaaalll iiinnnssstttrrruuummmeeennntttsssdebtorsDebtors are measured at fair value. Appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts are recognised in the income statement where there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired.cash and cash equivalentsCash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.bank borrowingsInterest-bearing bank loans and overdrafts are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Finance charges, including premiums payable on settlement or redemption and direct issue costs, are accounted for on an accruals basis in the income statement and are added to the carrying amount of the instrument to the extent that they are not settled in the period in which they arise.creditorsCreditors are measured at fair value.equity instrumentsEquity instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.derivative financial instruments and hedge accountingFinancial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Group’s balance sheet when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Transactions in derivative financial instruments are for risk management purposes only. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to interest rate and foreign currency risk. To the extent that such instruments are matched to underlying assets or liabilities, they are accounted for using hedge accounting. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date a derivative contract is taken out and subsequently remeasured at fair value at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments that are designated as, and effective as, hedges of future cash flows and net investments are recognised directly in the other income statement. Any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement. Amounts deferred in equity are recycled through the income statement in the same period in which the underlying hedged item is recognised in the income statement. However, when the transaction that is being hedged results in a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously accumulated in equity are transferred from equity and included in the initial measurement of the cost of that asset or liability. Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognised in equity at that time is retained in equity until the forecast transaction occurs. If a hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, any cumulative gain or loss recognised in equity is transferred to the income statement for the period.Changes in fair value of derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting, or have not been designated as hedges, are recognised in the income statement as they arise. These derivative instruments are designated as fair value through the profit or loss. Derivatives embedded in other financial instruments or other host contracts are treated as separate derivatives when their economic risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host contracts are not carried at fair value.ssshhhaaarrreee---bbbaaassseeeddd pppaaayyymmmeeennntttsssThe Company has applied the requirements of FRS 20 Share-based payment. In accordance with the transitional provisions, FRS 20 has been applied to all grants of equity instruments after November 2002 that were unvested as at January 2004. The Company issues share-based payments to certain employees of the Group headed by the Company. The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Company’s estimate of shares that will eventually vest. Fair value for grants pre-2006 was measured by the use of the Black-Scholes model and subsequently a stochastic model was used. Note 29 to the Annual Report and Financial Statements of the Group sets out details of the share-based payments. The total value of equity-settled share-based payments is credited to the profit and loss reserve of the Company. Share-based payments to employees of subsidiaries of the Company are recharged to the relevant employer and the recharged income is credited to the profit and loss account of the Company. overview governance business review fffiiinnnaaannnccciiiaaalll ssstttaaattteeemmmeeennntttsssInterserve AnnuAl report 2012 fffIIInnnAAAnnncccIIIAAAlll ssstttAAAttteeeMMMeeennntttsss notes to the coMpAnY fInAncIAl stAteMents 123eeexxxeeemmmppptttiiiooonnnsssThe Company’s financial statements are included in the Interserve Plc consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012.

These are typically from overseas-based ‘‘brokers’’ who target UK shareholders offering to sell them what often turn out to be worthless or high-risk shares in US or UK investments. These operations are commonly known as “boiler rooms”. The “brokers” can be very persistent and extremely persuasive. Shareholders are advised to be very wary of any unsolicited advice, offers to buy shares at a discount or offers of free reports into the Company.If you receive any unsolicited investment advice:• Make sure you get the correct name of the person and organisation.• Check that they are properly authorised by the FSA before getting involved. You can check at www.fsa.gov.uk/register/home.do. • The FSA also maintains on its website a list of unauthorised overseas firms who are targeting, or have targeted, UK investors and any approach from such organisations should be reported to the FSA so that this list can be kept up to date and any other appropriate action can be considered. If you deal with an unauthorised firm, you would not be eligible to receive payment under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. The FSA can be contacted by completing an online form at www.fsa.gov.uk/pages/doing/regulated/law/alerts/overseas.shtml.• Inform Capita Registrars’ compliance department on +44 (0)20 8639 2041 or email compliance@capitaregistrars.com. • More detailed information on this or similar activity can be found at www.moneyadviceservice.org.uk.Details of all share dealing facilities that the Company endorses are detailed above.Please note that any electronic address provided in this document to communicate with the Company may not be used for any purpose other than that expressly stated.Group Company SeCretaryTrevor BradburyreGiStered offiCeInterserve HouseRuscombe ParkTwyfordReadingBerkshire RG10 9JUT +44 (0)118 932 0123F +44 (0)118 932 0206info@interserve.comwww.interserve.comreGiStered number88456reGiStrar andShare tranSfer offiCeCapita Registrars The Registry34 Beckenham RoadBeckenhamKent BR3 4TUT +44 (0)20 8639 3399F +44 (0)1484 600911ssd@capitaregistrars.comwww.capitashareportal.com auditorSDeloitte LLPStoCkbrokerSJPMorgan Cazenove LimitedNumis Securities LimitedLawyerSAshurst LLPadviSerSThis Annual Report was printed in the UK by CPI Colour Limited, using vegetable based inks.The printer and paper mill are accredited with ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems andare Forestry Stewardship Council® chain-of-custody registered.
