Redde plc

 (“Company”)

Grant of Awards under the 2016 Performance Share Plan

On 26 September 2018, the Remuneration Committee made awards of nil-paid options over ordinary shares of 0.1 pence each in the capital of the Company under the 2016 Performance Share Plan to the following executive directors:

Name of DirectorNo. of Award Shares Structure of AwardExercise Price
Martin Ward 203,648 Nominal Cost Option Award 0.1 pence
Stephen Oakley 136,906 Nominal Cost Option Award 0.1 pence

The above awards are subject to vesting criteria relating to the achievement of an earnings per share (“EPS”) target over a three financial year performance period. These awards will normally become exercisable as nominal cost options subject to continued employment and to the extent the EPS target is achieved over the three financial year performance period. 

These awards will vest in full if the Company achieves a basic adjusted EPS of 17.25 pence in the financial year ended 30 June 2021 with a straight-line reduction to NIL if EPS is below 15.26 pence.  

Once vested, the awards shall ordinarily remain exercisable until the tenth anniversary of the grant of the awards. No consideration was paid for the grant of the awards but the nominal cost (option price) is due on the exercise of the awards.
