Notification of Interests in Shares

Awards GRANTED under the BG Group PLC long term incentive PLAN 2008 (LTIP)

BG Group plc (the "Company") has today received notification from Simon Lowth, Chief Financial Officer of the Company that, on 11 December 2013, he was granted the following awards under the rules of the LTIP in the form of nil cost options to acquire ordinary shares of 10p each in the Company ("Shares"):

The One-off Performance Share Award was granted in connection with Mr Lowth's recruitment as Chief Financial Officer to compensate him for foregoing share awards from his previous employer.

Under normal circumstances, the Performance Share Award and the One-off Performance Share Award will not vest and become exercisable until after the end of the three-year vesting period which commenced on 11 December 2013. Vesting of each of the Performance Share Award and the One-off Performance Share Award is conditional upon the achievement of specified performance criteria over a three-year period. Following vesting, 50% of the net of tax number of vested Shares may not be sold by Mr Lowth for a further two years and those Shares will be held on trust on his behalf.

Also, on 11 December 2013, Mr Lowth was granted a further Share Award under the rules of the LTIP, in the form of a conditional award for no consideration to compensate him for foregoing bonus entitlements from his previous employer. The Shares under this further Award vested immediately, with no performance condition, and were subject to income tax and National Insurance Contributions ("NIC") on vesting. As a result, sufficient Shares were sold to allow the Company to settle the income tax and social security withholdings (together with the associated dealing costs). These transactions, along with Mr Lowth's resulting interest in the Shares, are detailed in the table below:

This announcement is made pursuant to DTR 3.1.4.
