GRANT OF SHARE PLAN AWARDS

Costain announces the following grants of share awards to its Executive Directors, Alex Vaughan, Chief Executive Officer, and Helen Willis, Chief Financial Officer.

LONG TERM INCENTIVE AWARDS

On 22 May 2026, awards have been granted under the Costain 2023 Long Term Incentive Plan (the 'LTIP') over ordinary shares in the Company in the form of nil-cost options (the 'LTIP Awards'). An LTIP Award was granted to Alex Vaughan over 359,643 shares and to Helen Willis over 301,565 shares, each representing 125% of salary. No consideration was paid for the grant of the LTIP Awards.

The LTIP Awards will normally vest on 10 April 2029, subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions as detailed in the Directors' Remuneration Report, within the Company's Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2025. The LTIP Awards for the Executive Directors will be subject to a further two-year holding period, after which the LTIP Awards will become exercisable and will remain exercisable until the tenth anniversary of the grant date (with no further performance conditions required after vesting).

The Company's Remuneration Committee will determine the extent to which the performance conditions have been satisfied over the three financial years ending 31 December 2028.

The Notification of Dealing Forms for the LTIP Awards, set out further below, are provided in accordance with the requirements of the UK Market Abuse Regulation.
