1 . The FSA was delivered when Andrew McLaughlin was resident in Jersey and therefore is taxable in Jersey only and not in the UK. No employer tax withholding is required under Jersey law. The Jersey income tax payable in respect of the vesting of the award will be paid by the PDMR directly to the Jersey tax authority.

2. Katie Murray's FSA represents payment for the period from 1 January 2020 to 30 June 2020.

3. Alison Rose's FSA represents payment for the period from 1 January 2020 to 8 April 2020. Alison Rose has waived her entitlement to 25% of her total fixed pay for the period 9 April 2020 to 31 December 2020 and this is being effected through a reduction in the number of shares she receives by way of FSA.

 

 

The above transactions took place on the London Stock Exchange (XLON) .  The market price used to determine the number of Shares withheld to meet associated tax liabilities was £1.065.   Shares retained after payment of associated tax liabilities will be held on behalf of PDMRs in the Computershare Retained Share Nominee account and will be released in instalments over a three year period.
