The following amendments have been made to the "Director/PDMR Dealing and Total Voting Rights" announcement released on 4 January 2023 at 07:00 under RNS No 5798L.
Consequently, the following announcements incorrectly stated both the total number of shares in issue and the total number of voting rights:
"Transaction in Own Shares" announcement released on 4 January 2023 at 07:00 under RNS No 5799L
"Transaction in Own Shares" announcement released on 5 January 2023 at 07:00 under RNS No 7269L

Plus500 Ltd.
("Plus500" or "the Company")
Director/PDMR Dealing and Total Voting Rights
Plus500, a global multi-asset fintech group operating technology-based trading platforms, announces that certain figures contained in the announcement which it made on 4 January 2023 relating to the issue of ordinary shares of NIS 0.01 ("Ordinary Shares") on 31 December 2022 to certain persons (including PDMRs and/or PCAs) were incorrect.
In particular, it issued on 31 December 2022 a total of 480,143 ( instead of 389,524) Ordinary Shares out of the Ordinary Shares held in treasury, as follows:
· 127 ,485 (instead of 104,408) Ordinary Shares to certain persons (including PDMRs and/or PCAs as detailed below) to satisfy deferred payments due to them under the Company's 2019, 2020 and 2022 bonus schemes.
· 177,386 (instead of 107,418) Ordinary Shares to PDMRs and/or their PCAs as detailed below to satisfy payments due to them under the Company's vested 2020 LTIP grant scheme.
· 79,097 (instead of 81,523) Ordinary Shares were issued to non-PDMRs to satisfy payments due to them under the Company's vested 2022 RSU grant scheme.
The previously announced issue on 31 December 2022 of 96,175 Ordinary Shares to PDMRs and/or their PCAs due to them under the Company's vested 2020 RSU grant scheme remains unchanged .
A number of the corresponding PDMR notifications have been amended as well.
Total Voting Rights
Following the issue of the 480,143 (instead of 389,524) Ordinary Shares on 31 December 2022 and following the repurchase of 32,779 Ordinary Shares on 3 January 2023, as of 3 January 2023, the number of Ordinary Shares in issue was 93,742,950 (instead of 93,652,331) (excluding treasury shares) and the Company held 21,145,427 (instead of 21,236,046) Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, the total voting rights in the Company as of 3 January 2023 was 93,742,950 (instead of 93,652,331).
Consequently, the previously announced total voting rights in the Company announced between 4 January 2023 and 16 January 2023 also require amendment as follows:
Date of announcement |
Total voting rights |
04-Jan-23 |
93,742,950 |
05-Jan-23 |
93,710,170 |
06-Jan-23 |
93,677,290 |
09-Jan-23 |

93,527,438 |
13-Jan-23 |
93,494,939 |
16-Jan-23 |
93,462,784 |
The above figures may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
