Responsibility or Connected Persons
AMEC plc ('the Company') announces today, 1 October 2009, that Mr S Y Brikho, Chief Executive of the Company, acquired 544,693 of the Company's ordinary shares of 50p each, for no consideration.
The acquisition arises from the vesting of Part B of the award under the AMEC Performance Share Plan 2006, made at the time Mr Brikho joined AMEC, and is as a result of the performance conditions set at that time having been met in full. The shares to satisfy the award were transferred from the Company's employee benefit trust.
Mr Brikho has elected not to sell any of the shares that vested, which is the usual method of meeting tax and national insurance liabilities and is paying these separately.
Following this transaction, Mr Brikho now holds 890,729 ordinary shares in the company (representing 0.268% of the voting rights in the Company). Mr Brikho also has an interest in 773,899 Restricted Shares under the Performance Share Plan 2002, 546,780 shares awarded under the Transformation Incentive Plan and 1,624 shares under the Savings Related Share Option Scheme.
This notification is made pursuant to Disclosure and Transparency Rule 3.1.4.
