GRANT OF SHARE PLAN AWARDS
Costain announces the following grants of share awards to Alex Vaughan, Chief Executive Officer, and Helen Willis, Chief Financial Officer.
A. SHARE DEFERRAL PLAN AWARDS
On 9 April 2025, awards have been made under The Costain 2023 Share Deferral Plan (Share Deferral Plan) over ordinary shares of 1p each in the Company in the form of options with a nil exercise price (SDP Awards). An SDP Award was granted to Alex Vaughan over 229,333 shares and Helen Willis over 190,466 shares, each representing deferral into shares of one third of their 2024 Annual Incentive Plan earned. No consideration was paid for the grant of the Awards.
The SDP Awards will normally become exercisable on the second anniversary of the grant date subject to the rules of the Share Deferral Plan. To the extent that all or any part of the SDP Awards become exercisable, they will remain exercisable until the tenth anniversary of the date of grant provided the individual remains an employee or officer of the Company.
B. LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN AWARDS
Also on 9 April 2025, awards have been made under The Costain 2023 Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) over ordinary shares of 1p each in the Company in the form of options with a nil exercise price (LTIP Awards). An LTIP Award was granted to Alex Vaughan over 535,970 shares and to Helen Willis over 442,995 shares, each representing 100% of salary. No consideration was paid for the grant of the Awards.
The Awards will normally vest three years after grant, subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions, but will not normally be released (so that they can be exercised) until the fifth anniversary of the grant date (with no further performance conditions required after vesting).
The vesting of the Awards is subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions assessed over the three financial years ending 31 December 2027. The Company's 2024 Directors' Remuneration Report included proposed performance conditions which have now been finalised by the Remuneration Committee of the Company and are unchanged.
The Notification of Dealing Forms for both the SDP and the LTIP, set out further below, are provided in accordance with the requirements of the Market Abuse Regulation.
