Centrica PLC

The following amendment should be made to the Centrica Director/PDMR Shareholding announcement released at 11:29 GMT on February 02, 2012.

Announcement is being resent to include correct ISIN for linking purposes.

Purchase of ordinary shares of 614/81 pence in Centrica plc (‘Shares’ and the ‘Company’, respectively) by Directors of the Company and Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility (‘PDMRs’) under its Share Incentive Plan (‘SIP’).

The SIP trustee, Equiniti Share Plan Trustees Limited (the ‘Trustee’), notified the Company on

2nd February 2012 that:

(1) The following Directors and other Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility for the Company acquired Shares under the SIP on 1st February 2012 held through the Trustee:

    Number       Aggregate Shares held    
of Shares Beneficially (across all accounts
Directors Acquired* following acquisition)
Phil Bentley 63 1,995,998
Mark Hanafin 63 489,067
Sam Laidlaw 61 2,250,110
Nick Luff 63 639,917
Chris Weston 63 474,231
 
Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility
Grant Dawson 63 541,256
Jill Shedden 63 113,178

* The ‘Number of Shares Acquired’ includes 42 Partnership shares acquired at 298.25 pence per share (41 Partnership shares for Sam Laidlaw with a lower residual balance) and 21 Matching shares acquired at 292.37 pence per share (20 Matching shares for Sam Laidlaw with a lower residual balance). Both the Partnership and Matching elements are registered in the name of the Trustee.

(2) The Trustee had transferred 8,000 Shares from Equiniti Corporate Nominees Limited AESOP1 (Allocated shares) to Equiniti Corporate Nominees Limited AESOP2 (Unallocated shares). The transfer was made following the forfeiture of shares, under the rules of the SIP, by participants who have left the group since the last purchase and the shares had been used towards the current month’s allocation of Matching shares.

Notes:

The SIP is made available to all UK employees and operates as follows:

  • Each month the Trustee uses participants’ contributions (which may not exceed £125 per participant per month) to purchase shares in the market. These shares are called ‘Partnership Shares’.
  • At the same time the Company allots to participants via the Trustee one ‘Matching Share’ for every two partnership shares purchased that month (up to a maximum of 22 matching shares per month).
  • Participants may change their monthly savings rate whenever they wish. However, Directors and others bound by the Company’s Securities Dealing Code (the “Code”) may not make such a change during a close period or when otherwise prohibited from dealing by the Code.
