MCCOLL'S RETAIL GROUP PLC McColl's Retail Group plc (the 'Company')
Grant of Long Term Incentive Plan Awards
Notification of Transactions by Executive Directors and Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ('PDMRs')
The Company announces the grant of LTIP Awards on 2 May 2019 to the following Directors of the Company in accordance with the rules of the McColl's Retail Group plc Long Term Incentive Plan (the 'LTIP').
Director / PDMR | Number of ordinary shares of £0.001 each ('Shares') over which LTIP Awards were granted | Call Price per share |
Jonathan Miller | 364,240 | £0.001 |
Dave Thomas | 237,163 | £0.001 |
Robbie Bell | 505,350 | £0.001 |
The awards of Jonathan Miller and Dave Thomas are based on the same number of shares as granted in the previous year rather than at 150% of salary, reflecting the Company's share price decline. The award for Robbie Bell, who was appointed Chief Financial Officer in January 2019, is equivalent to 125% of base salary (based on the mid-market closing price for McColl's shares on 1 May 2019, being the day immediately preceding the date of grant) and forms part of his recruitment package as disclosed in the Annual Report and Accounts 2018.
Awards will vest subject to the following performance conditions measured over the three-year performance period ending November 2021.

Between median and upper quartile | Between 7% and 18% p.a. | Straight line vesting from 25% to 100% |
Upper quartile | 18% p.a. or more | 100% |
Further, for LTIP Awards to Vest, the Committee must be satisfied that the outcome when applying the EPS and TSR Targets is a genuine reflection of the underlying performance of the business.
