DIRECTOR/PDMR SHAREHOLDINGS
The following disclosure is made in accordance with Article 19 of EU Market Abuse Regulation No. 596/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.
Tyman plc announces that it has been notified of the following transactions in the Company's ordinary 5p shares ("Ordinary Shares") undertaken by Executive Director and PDMR, Jason Ashton, CFO.
Impact of the recommended offer for the Company
On 22 April 2024, the boards of Quanex Building Products Corporation ("Quanex") and Tyman announced (the "2.7 Announcement") that they reached agreement on the terms of a recommended cash and share offer, pursuant to which Quanex will acquire the entire issued and to be issued ordinary share capital of Tyman (the "Transaction"). In this section, all capitalised terms used shall have the same meaning as in the 2.7 Announcement, unless expressly defined otherwise.
Pursuant to the terms agreed by Quanex and Tyman, options over Ordinary Shares under the Deferred Share Bonus Plan (the "DSBP") vested in full and were exercised by Jason Ashton on 24 July 2024, being the date the Court sanctioned the scheme of arrangement for the Transaction ("Court Sanction"). Options over Ordinary Shares under the Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") vested to the extent determined by the Company's Remuneration Committee and were exercised by Jason Ashton on the date of Court Sanction. Options over Ordinary Shares under the Company's UK Sharesave scheme were also exercised on the date of Court Sanction, to the extent of savings made under the Company's UK Sharesave scheme at the time of exercise.
Ordinary Shares under options exercised by Jason Ashton were as follows:
