Director Dealings
PURCHASE OF PARTNERSHIP SHARES, AWARDS OF MATCHING SHARES AND DIVIDEND REINVESTMENTS
Share plc (AIM:SHRE.LN) announces that on Friday 15th June the directors of the Company listed below purchased ordinary shares of 0.5 pence in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at an allocation cost of 27 pence per share as "partnership shares" under the Company's Share Incentive Plan. These purchases were undertaken by the trustee of the Company's Share Incentive Plan, Sharesecure Ltd, a UK registered company, on behalf of these individuals and the shares were purchased in the open market. Allocation cost is calculated in accordance with HMRC SIP Rules and Guidance.
In connection with these purchases on the same date the directors were awarded Ordinary 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.
In addition, the Company announces that on Wednesday 13th June three of the directors purchased Ordinary Shares in the open market by way of a standing dividend re-investment instruction, as shown below, also at an allocation cost of 27 pence per share.
All the above transactions are summarised below:
