Grant of options under SAYE Scheme

Anpario plc, the independent manufacturer of natural sustainable animal feed additives for health, nutrition and biosecurity, announces that, further to the announcement on the 16 December 2024, it has, on 14 January 2025, granted options under The Anpario plc 2024 SAYE Share Option Scheme (the "SAYE Scheme") which is approved by H.M. Revenue and Customs ("HMRC").

Certain employees (the "SAYE Scheme Participants") of the Group have chosen to participate in the SAYE Scheme, pursuant to which, subject to certain customary conditions being satisfied, will be able to subscribe for, in aggregate, up to 105,280 ordinary shares in the capital of the Company ("Shares"). As announced on the 16 December 2024, the executive directors of the Company, Richard Edwards, Marc Wilson and Karen Prior, are SAYE Scheme Participants and have subscribed for the maximum £500 a month contribution and, subject to the same conditions being satisfied, they will each be able to subscribe for up to 6,013 Shares.

The entitlements to subscribe arise following the end of the three year period to 29 February 2028. The exercise price is 299.33 pence per Share, which was determined in-line with HMRC approval as a discount of 20% on the average closing middle market price of the Shares in the three business days ended on the 18 December 2024. The SAYE Scheme Participants may opt to withdraw from the SAYE Scheme, recovering paid-in funds, prior to that time.
