Grant of Awards under the Company's Restricted Share Plan ("RSP")

 

The independent trustee (the "Trustee") of the Company's Employees' Benefit Trust based in Jersey (the "Trust") notified the Company that on 27 March 2020 it granted Restricted Share awards under the RSP to Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility ("PDMR") within the Company, in the amounts set out below.  

 

Under the terms of the RSP, the participant is the beneficial owner of the Restricted Shares but the shares are held in trust by the Trustee who remains the legal owner until the shares are released at the end of a three year vesting period (the "Restricted Period").

 

During the Restricted Period, a participant may not dispose of the Restricted Shares, and cannot vote or receive any dividends in respect of the Restricted Shares. An additional award of Restricted Shares equal in value to any dividends paid during the Restricted Period may be made on the release of the awards.

 

During the Restricted Period, the Restricted Shares will be subject to the malus provisions of the RSP.

 

The base price for calculating the level of award was 96.9p, the average market closing price between 24 and 26 March 2020.
