2. Sustained Performance Plan ("SPP"): Exercise of par cost options and Sale of Shares
Ordinarily, a proportion of shares granted under the Company's
SPP would be sold on the London Stock Exchange to satisfy the
entire income tax and national insurance liabilities immediately
arising on vesting. This would have resulted in the sale of 68,048
shares in the Company and the transfer of 76,446 shares to Ms
Felix.
The Company also announces that June Felix has elected to
satisfy a significant portion of the income tax and national
insurance liability from her own resources, resulting in the sale
of 47,955 shares in the Group and the transfer of 96,539 shares to
Ms Felix.
The table below sets out the share options exercised on 6 August
2020 and the number of shares sold and the price per share,
following the exercise and sale:

Total 144,494 47,955
------------------------ ----------------- ----------------- ------------------
Following this transaction, June Felix's total shareholding in
the Company is 352,909 shares (which includes her unvested share
options in the SPP on a net of tax basis), representing 424% of
salary held (based on a share price of GBP7.325). Under the share
ownership policy, Executive Directors are expected to hold shares
to the value of a minimum of 200% of base salary.
3. Purchase of Shares under the Company's Share Incentive Plan ("SIP")
The Company operates a HMRC tax advantaged SIP, which is open to
all UK based employees. If employees participating in the SIP
retain their purchased shares and remain employed on the third
anniversary of the purchase, additional matching shares will vest
on a one-for one basis.
The Company was today advised by the Trustees of the SIP that on
6 August 2020, the following transactions were made under the
