(ii) Performance Share Plan (PSP) - Grant of Awards - 4 June 2026
On 4 June 2026 the independent Trustee of the SSE Employee Trust notified the Company that it had on 4 June 2026 granted the Executive Directors/PDMRs listed in the table that follows awards over Ordinary shares of 50 pence each fully paid in the Company under the PSP. The number of shares stated will become available to each Executive Director/PDMR if the performance targets applicable to the award are achieved at their upper limit or above.

The number of shares under each award has been calculated by reference to a price of £23.00 per share, being the average of the Company's share price over the three dealing days immediately preceding the date of grant.
Vesting of these awards will normally only take place if performance conditions are satisfied over the three-year performance period 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029. These performance conditions are those indicated in the Remuneration Committee Report which forms part of SSE's 2026 Annual Report and Accounts which will be published on 12 June 2026.
Awards granted to Executive Directors will be subject to an additional post-vesting holding period during which time the Executive Director must retain the post-tax number of shares vesting under award.
