On 31 March 2023 the Company granted options over ordinary shares ("Ordinary Shares") under the LTIP to the following PDMRs:

 
                       Number of Ordinary 
                    Shares over which options 
 PDMR                        granted                  Exercise price 
 David McCreadie             66,306             GBP0.40 per Ordinary Share 
                  ---------------------------  ---------------------------

                  ---------------------------  --------------------------- 
 Nick Davies                 18,125             GBP0.40 per Ordinary Share 
                  ---------------------------  --------------------------- 
 John Bevan                  17,168             GBP0.40 per Ordinary Share 
                  ---------------------------  --------------------------- 
 Geoff Ray                   12,692             GBP0.40 per Ordinary Share 
                  ---------------------------  --------------------------- 
 Julian Hartley              15,000             GBP0.40 per Ordinary Share 
                  ---------------------------  --------------------------- 
 Katie Docherty              13,849             GBP0.40 per Ordinary Share 
                  ---------------------------  --------------------------- 
 

The number of shares under each option was set by reference to a value per Ordinary Share of 1,040p, which was the 12 month average mid-market price determined between 1 January to 31 December 2022.

Each option has been granted subject to performance conditions based on sliding scale measures of: (1) the Company's total shareholder return over the performance period relative to the total shareholder return performance of the current constituent companies of the FTSE Small Cap Index (excluding investment trusts) over the same period ; (2) return on average equity (target range of 14% - 16%); (3) earnings per share ('EPS') growth (target range of 3-year compound annual growth rate 20% - 30%, measured from 2022 EPS for continuing businesses); and (4) an assessment of the Company's approach to risk management over the performance period.

The performance conditions also include an underpin measure which includes an assessment of general financial performance, shareholder experience, risk management performance and progress against the Group's strategy .

The performance period in each case is a period of three years starting on 1 January 2023 and ending with 31 December 2025.

Each of the four performance conditions noted above accounts for 25% of the option.

Each option will, ordinarily, vest on the date on which the Company's Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors, determines the extent to which the performance conditions have been satisfied. Each option will be released so that the participant is entitled to exercise the vested Ordinary Shares on the vesting date except in the case of Rachel Lawrence and David McCreadie when the date of release will be at the end of a holding period which shall end on the second anniversary of the vesting date.

In total 217,307 share options with performance conditions were granted to participants in the LTIP.

In accordance with the terms of the options, the exercise price payable may be waived before exercise.

The Company further granted options over Ordinary Shares without performance conditions but subject only to the participant's continued service through to the applicable vesting date, but with discretion retained for the Remuneration Committee to potentially reduce the award on settlement if it considers appropriate to do so under the LTIP plan to the following PDMRs:

 
                   Number of Ordinary 
                 Shares over which award 
 PDMR                    granted                 Exercise price 
 Chris Harper            7,937             GBP0.40 per Ordinary Share 
               -------------------------  --------------------------- 
 

The number of shares under each option was set by reference to a value per Ordinary Share of 1,040p, which was the 12 month average mid-market price determined between 1 January to 31 December 2022.

In total 63,975 share options without performance conditions were granted to participants in the LTIP.
