Grant of Options

Brickability Group plc (AIM: BRCK), the leading construction materials distributor, announces that on 24 January 2024 it awarded a total of 4,451,604 options to subscribe for new ordinary shares in the Company under the Brickability Group plc Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") 2019. Of these, 2,337,903 are conditional performance related options and include the following options that were granted to Directors and PDMR's ("Management Options").

Director/PDMR	Number of LTIP Options
Mike Gant - Director	658,970
Paul Hamilton - PDMR	500,000
Andrew Wilson - PDMR	152,070
Kenny Hirst-Sewell - PDMR	360,679

The Management Options are exercisable on the same terms as previous options granted under the Company's LTIP, being exercisable at the nominal price of £0.01 and have vesting conditions tied to adjusted EBITDA and total shareholder return, with each award split equally between the two performance conditions. Vesting will occur on a straight-line basis on achieving 18% (equivalent to 6% annually) to 30% (equivalent to 10% annually) of the relevant performance condition over the performance period. There is no vesting if the relevant target is not met but a 25% vesting if the initial 18% hurdle is met with a proportionate additional vesting up to 100% if the 30% threshold is met. To the extent vested, the options will be subject to a two-year holding period following the expiry of the performance period. The performance period will be 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2026.

The balance of the options awarded (being 2,113,701) are restricted share options which are being issued to a broad number of Group employees outside of the senior management team. These are not subject to performance conditions or the additional holding period but, as with all options awarded under the plan, require that grantees remain in the Group's employment for the duration of the vesting period being the period from 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2026.
