Notification of transactions by PDMRs  

The Board announces that on 18 January 2022 the Company granted 1,301,774 performance shares under the Numis Corporation Long Term Incentive Plan 2021 ("Awards") to the Executive Directors of the Company. The grant of these Awards is in line with the Remuneration policy set out in the Company's latest Annual Report published on 20 December 2021.  

Director	Award shares
Alex Ham	562,130
Ross Mitchinson	562,130
Andrew Holloway	177,514

 
The vesting of the Award shares is conditional on meeting performance conditions measured over a three-year period as described below. The Awards are subject to a further one year holding period during which vested awards cannot be sold. 

Performance conditions

The Awards are subject to total shareholder return ("TSR") growth measures. TSR growth will be calculated as the difference between the 3 month average return index immediately before the start of the performance period and the average return index performance over the final 12 months of the 3 year performance period.

TSR Performance target	Percentage of Award vesting
Below 6%	0%
6% p.a.	25%
6% - 20% p.a	Between 25% and 100% on a straight-line basis
20% p.a.	100%

Awards will also be subject to an underpin whereby the Remuneration Committee will need to be satisfied that vesting is warranted based on financial, compliance, culture and risk performance over the performance period including an assessment of Numis' financial performance when measured against its peers, over the performance period.

Shareholding requirement

Shareholding requirements are in place and the Executive Directors are required to retain a percentage of their salary in shares. The shareholding requirement will also continue one year post cessation.

Director	Percentage of salary
Alex Ham	500%
Ross Mitchinson	500%
Andrew Holloway	200%
