Barclays PLC (the "Company")
Notification of transactions by Director/Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility ("PDMR"): Disclosure and Transparency Rule 3.1.4R (1)(a)
The Company announces the following transactions by PDMRs in the ordinary shares in the Company (the "Shares"):
1. The allocation of Shares to PDMRs representing payment of the role based pay component ("Role Based Pay") of their fixed remuneration was notified to the Company on 30 June 2014. Role Based Pay is payable quarterly (but see note 1 below) and is subject to a holding period with restrictions lifting over five years (20% each year).
Role Based Pay is a new class of fixed pay introduced to comply with the EU's Capital Requirements Directive IV which requires remuneration provisions to include a maximum ratio between fixed and variable remuneration for a number of senior employees. A maximum ratio of 1:2 (fixed to variable) was approved by shareholders at the Company's AGM on 24 April 2014.
2. The reinvestment of the interim dividend for the quarter ending 31 March 2014 in Shares (the "Reinvestment 1") on behalf of PDMRs by an independent nominee, the Barclays Corporate Nominee Arrangement (previously Appleby Nominees), was notified to the Company on 30 June 2014.
3. The reinvestment of the interim dividend for the quarter ending 31 March 2014 in Shares by the trustee of the Barclays Group Sharepurchase Plan (the "Reinvestment 2"), an HM Revenue and Customs approved all employee share plan, was notified to the Company on 1 July 2014.
