Revolymer plc ("Revolymer" or "the Group") Award under Long Term Incentive Plan

Revolymer (AIM: REVO), the British polymer company developing patented products for a number of high value fast moving consumer goods ("FMCG") and industrial markets, announces the grant on 23 April 2014 of awards under the Revolymer plc Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") to its executive director Robin Cridland.

The LTIP was adopted by the board of directors of Revolymer plc (the "Board") on 29 June 2012 and its remuneration committee has approved the following grant on 23 April 2014:

·     To the Acting CEO and CFO Robin Cridland a nil cost option over 355,140 ordinary shares. The vesting period of these grants is three years and they only become exercisable if challenging performance conditions are met; namely that 50% of the grant becomes exercisable if the weighted average ordinary share price in the 30 day period ending on the third anniversary of grant is £1.25. Between weighted average ordinary share prices of £1.25 and £1.50, vesting shall be pro-rata and on a straight line basis between 50% and 100%. Below £1.25 the grants are not exercisable and lapse in full.

The Board also requires the executive directors to maintain minimum interests (of at least 380,000 ordinary shares for Robin Cridland) before selling any ordinary shares that are the result of exercise, except that they may sell that number of ordinary shares that are required to satisfy any income tax and employee's national insurance liabilities arising at exercise. This requirement shall not apply on a change of control, or other transaction with substantially the same effect.
