Enterprise Inns plc (the 'Company')

Director/PDMR Shareholding

13th December 2012

The Company confirms that on 12th December 2012, it granted to each of the following executive directors a conditional deferred share award (structured as an option) for the year ended 30th September 2012 under the Enterprise Inns 2005 Annual Bonus Plan ('2005 Plan'), in respect of the number of ordinary shares of 2.5 pence in the Company set out below:

These deferred share awards are in respect of the above individuals' total annual bonus award under the 2005 Plan for the financial year ended 30th September 2012 and are not subject to further performance criteria. In the normal course, 60% of any bonus awarded under the 2005 Plan is paid in cash with the remaining 40% deferred into shares, however (as was the case for the last three years) G E Tuppen and W S Townsend agreed that their entire bonus be paid in the form of a deferred share award. N R Smith elected to take 60% of his bonus in cash and 40% has therefore been deferred into shares. Subject to the rules of the 2005 Plan, the deferred share awards will be satisfied upon exercise by the transfer of ordinary shares to the individuals from the Company's Employee Benefit Trust. These deferred share awards will normally be exercisable from 12th December 2015 to 12th May 2016 for a total consideration of £1 payable by each director.

In addition, on 12th December 2012 (the 'date of grant') the Company granted the following executive directors a Performance and Matching share award under the rules of the Enterprise Inns 2005 Long Term Incentive Plan (the 'LTIP') for the financial year beginning 1st October 2012 over the following maximum number of ordinary shares of 2.5 pence in the Company:

The Matching share awards were granted following the election by the executives of the number of Investment Shares they are committing. All of the Investment Shares are designated from those shares awarded as part of their 2012 bonus under the 2005 Plan, with G E Tuppen and W S Townsend designating the maximum number permitted under the LTIP (being a max of 25% of salary).

Performance and Matching share awards have been structured as nominal cost options and will normally vest and become exercisable over one-third of the shares held under the award on each of the third, fourth and fifth anniversary of the date of grant, subject to the satisfaction of a challenging performance condition. Performance and Matching share awards will normally remain capable of exercise during the six month period commencing on the date of vesting. Total consideration of £1 is payable by each director on the exercise of their Performance Award and Matching Award.

Finally, on 13th December 2012 the following directors notified the Company that they have undertaken the sale of ordinary shares of 2.5p in the Company on 13th December 2012 at a price of 96.28 pence per share.

This notification is provided in accordance with DTR 3.1.4R (1).
