Director/PDMR Shareholding
Vesting of Award
As announced on 1 April 2019, Tyman plc (the "Company") granted an award of ordinary shares (the "Award) to Jo Hallas in reliance on Listing Rule 9.4.2(2) and in accordance with the Company's current Directors' Remuneration Policy. The Award was granted in connection with Jo's recruitment and her appointment as the Company's CEO and was intended to compensate her for unvested LTIP awards granted to her by her former employer that were forfeited on her joining the Company.
The Award comprised of two tranches: the first tranche vested on 30 April 2020 and the second tranche vested on 30 April 2021. In each case, vesting was subject to Jo's continued service in the Company.
Jo acquired 166,679 shares (this comprised of the original award of 156,814 shares and 9,865 dividend equivalent shares) for nil consideration under the second tranche of the Award. This vesting was satisfied in accordance with the Group's policy through the transfer of shares from the Tyman Employees Benefit Trust.
Jo sold 78,536 shares at £4.29 per share to cover her tax liability and dealing costs that arose on the vesting of the Award, and has retained all the remaining shares.
