Director/PDMR Shareholdings

Naked Wines plc announces that the following conditional share awards have been granted to staff:

· Conditional share awards over a total of 89,201 ordinary shares of 7.5 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") were granted to employees pursuant to the Company's Share Incentive Plan ("SIP").

· Conditional share awards over a total of 765,500 ordinary shares of 7.5 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") were granted to certain employees pursuant to the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP").

The number of shares subject to the LTIP awards has been determined by reference to the preceding three-month average price of a share on the London Stock Exchange on 29 July 2020 (395 pence per Ordinary Share).

The LTIP awards will normally vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant, subject to meeting certain strategic, operational, financial and shareholder return performance criteria and the continued employment of the participant. Clawback provisions contained in the rules of the LTIP can be applied to awards made to all participants

Included in the list of employees the below PDMR (Person Discharging Managerial Responsibilities) and PCA (Person Closely Associated with a PDMR) received the following conditional awards:

Following these grants the Company has a total of 73,138,446 Ordinary Shares in issue. There are 1,925,413 unvested conditional share awards under the Company's employee share schemes ⁽⁴⁾ , equating to approximately 2.63% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company.
