James Cropper Plc
(the "Company")
Notification of Transaction of Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility
("PDMRs")
The Company has been notified on 13 February 2023 that on the same day, the Trustees of James Cropper Plc Share Incentive Plan ("JC SIP Plan") transferred 184 ordinary shares of 25p each in the Company ("Shares") to a participant of the SIP Scheme.
The Shares were awarded to the participant on:
| Date of award | Number of Shares | Price per Share |
| 19 July 2018 | 79 | 1461.5p |
| 23 November 2020 | 105 | 1124.0p |
Beneficial rights to participants are recognised immediately upon award.
The SIP trust holds Shares for a 5 year period from the date of the award and then transfers the Shares to the participants. The Shares have been transferred to the participant earlier as, under the Scheme rules, the participant is deemed to be a leaver.
As a result of the above transactions, the JC SIP Plan is interested in 57,490 Shares, representing 0.6% of the issued share capital of the Company.
As a result of the change in interest of the JC SIP Plan, the non-beneficial interest of Rachel Armer and Jim Aldridge (both PDMRs and Trustees of the James Cropper Plc Share Incentive Plan) has decreased by 184 Shares.
