Director dealings
Miton Group plc (AIM:MGR.LN) announces that today the trustee of the Company's Share Incentive Plan operating through Miton ESOP Trustee Ltd, a UK registered company, purchased 15,704 ordinary shares of 0.1 pence each ("Shares") at an allocation cost of 37.25p pence per Share as "partnership shares" under the Company's Share Incentive Plan. The purchases were made in the open market. The allocation cost is calculated on the basis of the closing mid-market price on the day before the acquisition.
In connection with and on the same date as the above purchase all participants in the scheme were awarded Shares as "matching shares" under the Company's Share Incentive Plan. No consideration was paid by the grantees for the award of the matching shares and no consideration is due on the release of the matching shares.
The risk of forfeiture attached to the matching shares will normally be removed on the third anniversary of allocation subject to continued employment and the retention of the Partnership shares in connection with which they were awarded.
