The transaction, set out below, in the Corporation's Ordinary 5 pence shares was undertaken by a director / person discharging managerial responsibility ("PDMRs") following the purchase.
As set out in the Corporation's Remuneration Policy approved by shareholders on 7 April 2020, half of any bonus earned by the Executive Directors above £100,000 will be deferred in shares for three years with enhanced malus and clawback provisions applying. In accordance with that policy, 12,417 deferred share awards for Denis Jackson, an Executive Director, were granted under the Plan on 12 March 2021 at an average price of 704.66 pence per share (the "awards").
The awards granted under the Plan are held in trust and no consideration is payable on the grant or vesting of the awards. The number of shares to which each award relates is increased by the reinvestment of dividends due on the shares held in trust.
