BRAEMAR   SHIPPING SERVICES PLC

("Braemar", the "Company" or the "Group")

11 June 2021

 

Director / PDMR Shareholding

Braemar Shipping Services Plc (LSE: BMS), a leading international provider of shipbroking, financial advisory and logistics services to the shipping and energy industries, announces that it has granted the following awards over ordinary shares of 10p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") under the Company's Deferred Bonus Plan (the "DBP") on 8 June 2021 to certain Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ("PDMRs") of the Company in relation to the individuals' annual bonuses in respect of the 2020/2021 financial year:

James Gundy, CEO, Shipbroking - 169,925

Nicholas Stone, Group COO & Finance Director - 25,398

Peter Mason, General Counsel & Company Secretary - 12,138

These awards will ordinarily vest in three years from the date of grant in accordance with the rules of the DBP.

Peter Mason has also been given corresponding options under the Company Share Option Plan ("CSOP") over 11,278 Ordinary Shares each, which will vest on the same date as the DBP awards above.  The exercise price for the options is £2.66 per share, which is the average of the middle-market quotations of the Ordinary Shares over the three days immediately preceding the grant date.  The number of shares in respect of which the DBP award will vest will be reduced to take account of any gain in value, as at exercise, of the CSOP options.

Further information on the DBP and the CSOP is contained in the Company's 2020 Annual Report.

The Company also announces that an error has been identified in a Director / PDMR notification made by the Company on 8 July 2019.  The amount of options granted to Nick Stone, the Group's COO & Finance Director, under the Company's Save as you Earn scheme (the "SAYE Scheme") on 5 July 2019 was stated in error as 5,625.  The correct number was 4,500.

The notifications set out below provide further details in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation, which is part of UK law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.
