Vanquis Banking Group plc ("the Company")
Director/PDMR Transaction - Initial Notification
The Company announces that it has granted the following awards on 12 April 2023 over the Company's ordinary shares of 20 8/11p ("Shares") as follows:
1. nil-cost options over 406,561 and 298,942 Shares for no consideration to Malcolm Le May and Neeraj Kapur respectively, who are directors/persons discharging managerial responsibility ("PDMRs") in the Company, under the 2020 Restricted Share Plan (the "RSP Options");
2. market value options linked to the RSP Options over 13,498 and 13,498 Shares for no consideration to Malcolm Le May and Neeraj Kapur respectively, who are directors and PDMRs in the Company, under the 2020 Restricted Share Plan (the "CSOP Options"); and
3. awards over 190,539 and 125,122 Shares to Malcolm Le May and Neeraj Kapur respectively, who are directors and PDMRs in the Company, under the Deferred Bonus Plan 2022 (the "DBP Awards").
The RSP Options and CSOP Options work on the basis that the total number of Shares over which the RSP Options and CSOP Options may be exercised cannot exceed that number of Shares as on the grant date had a market value equal to the total number of Shares covered by the RSP Option and CSOP Options less the exercise price payable under the CSOP Options.
The number of ordinary shares awarded under the RSP Options and DBP Awards is based on the average closing share price on the London Stock Exchange between 31 March 2023 and 6 April 2023 of £2.2224, discounted from that price at grant to reflect the absence of dividend equivalents during the vesting period.
In respect of the DBP Awards, SG Kleinwort Hambros Trust Company (CI) Limited will transfer the beneficial interest to the participants, including the PDMRs, in satisfaction of the DBP Awards granted subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Deferred Bonus Plan 2022.
