Today, restricted share awards ("RSAs" and each a "RSA") over ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the share capital of the Company ("Shares") were granted under the Company's 2024 Performance Share Plan ("PSP") to the following persons discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMRs"):
| Participant | Position | No. of Shares over which the RSAs were granted | Grant Level as a % of Base Salary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dan Evans | Chief Executive | 1,262,755 | 37.5% |
| Judith Cottrell | Chief Financial Officer | 953,748 | 37.5% |
In the normal course of events, the RSAs will become exercisable as from the third anniversary of their grant, subject to the grantee's continued service and the RSA's underpin conditions.
The underpin conditions provide discretion for the Company's Remuneration Committee to potentially scale back vesting levels (or cancel the RSAs) if it considers that the Company's underlying performance, delivery against its strategic plans and/or the grantee's personal performance over the RSAs vesting period is less than satisfactory.
The RSAs were granted in the form of nil-cost options and are subject to the rules of the PSP at all times including that these RSAs are subject to a post vesting holding period (net of tax) operating to up to the fifth anniversary of grant.
The RSAs were granted under the Company's new remuneration policy for Directors approved at the Company's 2026 Annual General Meeting.
