10.8  If an Optionholder gives or receives notice to terminate his office or employment with any member of the Group or ceases to hold office or employment within the Group for any reason other than those set out in rules 10.7 and 10.9, then an Option granted to him may only be exercised (if at all) in relation to such proportion of the Option Shares, and within such period, as the Committee shall (with the consent of the Grantor, where appropriate) determine and notify to the Optionholder and shall otherwise lapse and cease to be exercisable SAVE THAT:

 

  (a) unless such determinations have been made by the Committee and notified to the Optionholder within the period of 3 months beginning with the date on which the Optionholder so ceases (or, if earlier, gives or receives notice of such cessation) then such Option may not be exercised and shall be deemed to have lapsed and ceased to be exercisable as from the date of such cessation or, if earlier, the date on which notice of such termination was given or received; and

 

  (b) in relation to a Performance Option, unless the Committee is of the opinion that the Performance Target is then likely to be met in full, such proportion of the Option Shares shall not exceed such proportion of the Performance Period as fell before the date of such cessation.
