13 February 2015
ARM Holdings plc (the "Company") announces that, following the strong performance of ARM against an international peer group over the last 3 years, the performance conditions under the Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") were satisfied to the extent that 93.1% of the conditional awards made in 2012 (plus dividend shares) vested on 12 February 2015. Details of the number of shares vesting, of shares sold automatically in order to satisfy tax liabilities and of subsequent share purchases and sales are listed below.
In addition, shares representing 50% of annual bonus earned in respect of the financial year ended 31 December 2011 and awarded in February 2012 have been released under the former Deferred Annual Bonus Plan ("DAB"). Under this plan, 50% of bonus earned was paid in cash and 50% was compulsorily deferred into shares which vest 3 years after the award date. The relevant performance conditions were fully satisfied and matching shares have been triggered in the ratio of 2:1 in respect of these shares. The former DAB operated for the last time in respect of the financial year ended 31 December 2013 and the outstanding awards will vest in February 2016 and 2017.
The LTIP vesting and DAB release took effect on 12 February 2015
