Grant of Awards under the Harvey Nash Group plc Performance Share Plan

On 29 April 2016, the Remuneration Committee of the Board of Harvey Nash Group plc granted awards under the Harvey Nash Group plc Performance Share Plan to the following executive directors in the Company in the form of options at nominal value over ordinary shares of 5p each:

These awards were calculated on the basis of 100% of base salary for the year ending 31 January 2017, using the share price at the close of business on 28 April 2016 of 71.0p.

The awards are subject to a performance condition that requires the Company's compounded annual growth in Adjusted Earnings Per Share over the three financial years to 31 January 2019 to be at least 15% to vest in full with 20% of the award vesting if such growth is at least 7.5%. Vesting between these levels will be on a straight-line basis with no part of the award vesting below 7.5%. Upon vesting, the shares must then be held for a minimum period of two years.
