                                        -------------  ----------  ------------------- 
 

This purchase of shares satisfies Nick Wilkinson's obligation to invest two-thirds of his FY23 cash bonus (after payment of tax and national insurance) in Dunelm shares, as set out in the Company's approved Remuneration Policy.

LTIP Grant

On 21 November 2023 share incentive awards were granted over ordinary shares of one pence each in the Company, in the form of a nil cost option under the Dunelm Group 2014 Long Term Incentive Plan to the following persons discharging managerial responsibilities:

 
 PDMR              Number of shares under award 
 Nick Wilkinson              126,725 
                  ----------------------------- 
 Karen Witts                  87,096 
                  ----------------------------- 
 Luisa Wright                 24,193 
                  ----------------------------- 
 James Cooper                 4,645 
                  ----------------------------- 
 

In the case of Nick Wilkinson, Karen Witts and Luisa Wright, the options may be exercised on or after 21 November 2026, subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions over the three financial periods commencing on 2 July 2023. These performance conditions are detailed in the Company's FY23 Annual Report. In the case of James Cooper, the options may be exercised on or after 21 November 2025, subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions.

On exercise, Nick Wilkinson and Karen Witts have each committed to retain (after sale to cover tax and national insurance liability on exercise), at least two thirds of these for the duration of employment. In addition, shareholding requirements apply for the duration of employment and for two years from termination of employment, as set out in the 2023 Remuneration Policy ("2023 Policy") approved on 16 November 2023.

In line with its 2023 Policy, the Remuneration Committee can apply malus or clawback to the award and has discretion to vary formulaic outturns where this does not reflect underlying performance or is inappropriate in the context of unexpected or unforeseen circumstances.

SAYE grant

In addition, on 21 November 2023, as part of its all-employee Sharesave scheme for 2023, options were granted over ordinary shares of one pence each in the Company under the Dunelm Group 2014 Sharesave Plan and Luisa Wright, a person discharging managerial responsibilities elected to participate at an option price of GBP8.10 per share.
