PDMR Shareholding - Grant of Share Options

 

Johnson Service Group PLC (the "Company") announces that it has today granted nil cost options over ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the Company under the Johnson Service Group 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP Award").

In addition, linked awards were granted on the same date over ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the Company under the Johnson Service Group 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan CSOP Section (the "Approved LTIP Award") at an exercise price of 197.0 pence each.

The number of options granted to each of the Executive Directors are as follows:

Performance Conditions and Vesting

The LTIP Award is subject to performance conditions linked to the Company's Earnings Per Share and Total Shareholder Return.  The performance conditions have been designed to ensure alignment between the incentivisation of the Executive Directors of the Company and the interests of its shareholders.  The LTIP Award will ordinarily vest three years from the date of grant and is exercisable up to ten years from the date of grant.

 

Linked Award

The Approved LTIP Award has been granted to allow, where possible, the participant to receive part of the gain which may have been received under the LTIP Award tax efficiently.  The participant will receive the same gross gain as they would have received had they only been granted the LTIP Award and not been granted the LTIP Award and the linked Approved LTIP Award.  At the time of exercise, to the extent that there is a gain on the Approved LTIP Award, the options granted under the LTIP Award will be forfeited to the same value.

 

Further Holding Period

The LTIP Award is subject to an additional holding period for two years from the date on which the LTIP Award vests (the "Holding Period").  During the Holding Period, the Award holder may not normally dispose of any of the shares which vest except to cover any income tax or social security contributions arising on the exercise of the LTIP Award.
