Grant of LTIP Awards
Seraphine Group plc (the "Company") announces that on 30 September 2022 the following awards over ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the Company were granted under the Seraphine Group plc Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) to the following person(s) discharging managerial responsibilities:

David N. Williams | Chief Executive Officer | 937,500 |
Lee Williams | Finance Director | 900,000 |
Chelsey Oliver | Creative & Brand Director | 787,500 |
The awards were granted as options with an option price per share of 1 pence and will ordinarily vest on 30 September 2025, subject to the grantee's continued service and the Remuneration Committee's assessment of the extent to which the performance conditions set for the awards are satisfied. A post vesting holding period applies during which vested shares (net of sales for tax) must then ordinarily be retained until 30 September 2027. The number of shares granted under the awards was set by reference to a reference share price of £0.20.
The Remuneration Committee of the Board resolved that the performance conditions for the awards have a performance period aligned to the three year vesting period and apply the following performance targets and related vesting percentages:
Highest consecutive five day average share price in the last three months of the performance period | Percentage of award that vests |
Less than £0.50 | 0% |
Between £0.50 and £0.75 | Pro-rata 25% to 50% |
Between £0.75 and £1.00 | Pro-rata 50% to 100% |
£1.00 or better | 100% |
