DABP
Each award under the DABP Scheme is structured as a conditional

scheme rules.
PSP
No consideration was paid for the grant of the PSP awards which
are structured as nil cost options and are subject to the

Committee of the Company over the period 1 January 2018 to 31

individual is an employee or officer within the Equiniti Group on
that date.
Once the awards have vested, the PDMRs will be required to hold
