Award of shares under the Share Incentive Plan

 

 

The Company announces that it received notification on 18 July 2012 that, following payroll contributions made on 29 June 2012, Cyril Sweett Trustee Company Limited, trustee of the HMRC approved Cyril Sweett All Employee Share Ownership Plan ("SIP'), awarded 27,878 ordinary shares of 10 pence each respectively in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to participants in the SIP. All of the 27,878 shares were unallocated shares already held in the SIP.

 

The SIP is a discretionary trust for the benefit of employees of the Company and participating subsidiaries, which holds Ordinary shares acquired and/or awarded under the partnership, matching, free and dividend shares sections of the plan. Following a change to the SIP Trust Deed and Rules on 1 January 2011, eligible participating employees now contribute funds to purchase partnership shares on a monthly basis. Dividends in respect of shares held by the SIP are re-invested to purchase dividend shares.

 

Following the appropriation Cyril Sweett Trustee Company Limited holds 10,070,752 Ordinary shares representing 15.19% of the issued share capital of the Company.

 

Under the SIP, Mr Dean Webster, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Mr Derek Pitcher, a Director of the Company, each purchased 695 ordinary shares at a price of 18 pence per share via contributions made on 29 June 2012.
