In accordance with the rules of the PSP, eligible employees will be entitled to acquire a maximum number of Ordinary Shares ('Award Shares') on or after 28 April 2028 at nil price, subject to the Company achieving the minimum reported performance criteria.
Summary details set out below:
2025 Grant | The grants of shares are a proportion of salary as follows:
The maximum total value of the shares granted to all recipients under the 2025 PSP is expected to be in the order of £1.7m, equivalent to circa 470,052 shares.
