British Polythene Industries PLC ("the Company") announces that the following awards of rights to acquire Mandatorily Acquired Shares (as defined in the Rules of the BPI Share Matching Plan ("SMP")) were made on 31 March 2016 by the Company's Remuneration Committee under the SMP to the named persons below. The awards were made at £7.1054 per share.

Matching awards were made of the right to acquire up to 3 times the number of these Mandatorily Acquired Shares subject to performance conditions measured over a 3 year performance period. Vesting for both the Mandatorily Acquired Shares and any related Matching Shares (as defined in the SMP Rules) will normally not occur until the preliminary results announcement for the year after the final year of the performance period.

In addition, four of the persons named below have acquired beneficial ownership of Voluntarily Acquired Shares (as defined in the SMP Rules) at a price of £7.2001 per share, following voluntary investment by them under the SMP of more of their annual bonus than the mandatory 25%. Vesting of Matching Shares with respect to these Voluntarily Acquired Shares is subject to performance conditions, measured over a 3 year performance period, and to the Voluntarily Acquired Shares having been held until such vesting by the Trustees of the BPI Employee Share Ownership Trust as nominee for the employee.

Following the acquisition of these Voluntarily Acquired Shares, the total holdings of the relevant PDMRs, including their connected persons, of the Company's shares are as follows:

As J Langlands and D Pendlebury did not acquire shares, there is no change in their previously reported holdings.
