LTIP Awards in respect of FY23

Esken has granted long-term incentive awards in respect of the financial year ended 28 February 2023 over its ordinary shares under the Esken Limited Long Term Incentive Plan 2020 (the "LTIP"), as follows: 

Name	Number of shares subject to award
Nick Dilworth, Chief Operating Officer (150% of salary)	4,709,466
Lewis Girdwood, Chief Financial Officer (150% of salary)	4,709,466

1 The number of shares comprised in awards have been based on a price for Esken's ordinary shares of 10.67 pence (being the average price in the three-day period leading up to the Remuneration Committee's meeting approving the awards.

As with the awards in respect of the Company's 2022 financial year made in December 2021, the Remuneration Committee of the Company has approved a wholly TSR-based performance measure for these awards on the basis that this would be closely aligned to shareholder interests. The performance targets attached to these awards are linked to an increase in the price of the Company's ordinary shares measured over the Company's 2023, 2024 and 2025 financial years (i.e. from 1 March 2022 to 28 February 2025), subject to a general financial performance underpin, as set out in the table below (with straight-line vesting between these points):

Vesting	Esken's share price
25% of maximum	a share price of 20.0p at vesting
100% of maximum	a share price of 30.0p at vesting

In assessing whether or not a particular share price has been achieved the Remuneration Committee will also take in to account the per share value of any dividend paid on ordinary shares during the performance period assuming that the dividend was reinvested into ordinary shares on the ex-dividend date.
