This notification is made under Article 19(1) of the EU Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 ("MAR") and relates to the grant of share awards under the terms of the Spectris Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") to persons discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMRs").
On 10 September 2024, Spectris plc (the "Company") was informed that, Angela Noon, Executive Director and PDMR of the Company accepted awards, on the same day, granted by the Company of nominal-cost share options over ordinary 5p shares on 6 September 2024, pursuant to the terms of the LTIP ("LTIP Awards"), as set out below:

1. Includes 1.4X multiplier. More details on the performance conditions attached to these LTIP Awards and the multiplier can be found in the Company's 2023 Remuneration Policy.
2. Angela Noon's 2024 LTIP nominal-cost options are linked to a grant of market-value share options ("Linked Options"). Linked Options are granted up to the £60,000 limit under the HMRC's Company Share Option Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, no additional gross value can be delivered from the exercise of these Linked Options under the terms of the LTIP.
The total number of ordinary shares over which these LTIP Awards were accepted represents 0.07% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital on 10 September 2024.
No consideration was paid for the grant of the LTIP Awards.
The first award in the above table represents the 2024 LTIP Award. The vesting of this 2024 LTIP Award is subject to the continued employment of the Executive Director, malus and clawback provisions and the satisfaction of performance conditions set by the Remuneration Committee of the Company. This 2024 LTIP Award will normally vest on the later of the third anniversary of grant and the determination of the performance conditions. The Executive Director's 2024 LTIP Award is then subject to an additional two-year vesting period. To the extent that the 2024 LTIP Award vests, it is exercisable for a period of five years from the end of the additional vesting period.
The other LTIP Awards in the table represent buy-out awards ("LTIP Buy-out Awards") for share awards and bonuses which Angela Noon forfeited from her previous employment. The table summarises the respective vesting dates and whether any performance conditions are attached to these LTIP Buy-out Awards.
The vesting of these LTIP Buy-out Awards are subject to the continued employment of the Executive Director, malus and clawback provisions and, where applicable, the satisfaction of relevant performance conditions set by the Remuneration Committee of the Company. The LTIP Buy-out Awards shown as having performance conditions attached will be subject to an additional two-year holding period after the respective vesting dates.
The nominal award price payable by each participant on the exercise of these LTIP Awards is 5 pence per share.
