SAVILLS PLC (THE "COMPANY")
Vesting of Award under The Savills Deferred Share Plan (No.2 Plan)
Further to the announcement made on 18 June 2026 confirming the grant of awards to Director Nick Sanderson on 17 June 2026 to replace restricted share awards forfeited by him when he left his previous employer, Great Portland Estates plc ('GPE') to take up his appointment as the Company's Group Chief Financial Officer, one of these awards, being the award over 79,653 Savills shares with a Deferred Period ending on 6 July 2026, has now become unconditional in all respects. This Deferred Period was the same as that which applied to the original GPE restricted share plan award. The shares transferred to Mr Sanderson, after settlement of associated tax liabilities, as detailed below are subject to a further two-year holding period ending 6 July 2028.
In satisfaction of the award, the Trustees of the Savills plc 1992 Employee Benefit Trust have effected the transfer of shares on 4 September 2026, following the settlement of associated tax liabilities through the sale of shares as follows:
