RNS Number : 8493B  Sainsbury(J) PLC  06 June 2023

6 June 2023

 

J Sainsbury plc

(the 'Company')

 

Directors/PDMRs Shareholding

 

On 2 June 2023, the following Directors and Persons Discharging Managerial
Responsibility ('PDMRs') were granted awards under the J Sainsbury plc Long
Term Incentive Plan 2016 ('LTIP'). The awards were granted as nil-cost options
over ordinary shares of 28(4)/(7) pence each in the Company ('Shares') as set
out below:

 

Leaders' Share Award ('LSAs')

 

 PDMRs                         Number of Shares
 Simon Roberts (Director)      862,500
 Bláthnaid Bergin (Director)   535,714
 Rhian Bartlett                377,142
 Graham Biggart                342,857
 Jim Brown                     345,660
 Tim Fallowfield               266,142
 Mark Given                    354,857
 Prerana Issar                 329,670
 Clodagh Moriarty              395,604
 Paula Nickolds                354,857

 

(1)  The LSAs are subject to performance conditions measured over three
financial years. The LSAs will normally vest after three years, subject to the
achievement of the performance conditions.

(2)  The maximum potential number of shares were awarded at the date of
grant. The final number of shares will be adjusted against a performance
outturn of between 0% and 100% at the end of the three-year performance
period.

(3)  The LSAs for Simon Roberts and Bláthnaid Bergin will be subject to an
additional retention period, meaning that any vested LSAs will be released
five years after the date of grant.

(4)  Dividend equivalents may be delivered (either in cash or Shares) in
respect of dividends accrued on any Shares which subsequently vest.

(5)  The share price to determine the number of Shares awarded was based on
the five dealing day average Share price prior to the grant date.

(6)  To comply with PRA and FCA banking regulations, the number of shares
awarded to Jim Brown will not be increased to reflect any dividends accrued
during the award's vesting period. However, a one-time fair value adjustment
to his award was made at the point of grant based on a forecasted dividend
yield over the vesting period to reflect the absence of dividend equivalents
accrued during the vesting period.

 

The PDMRs were also granted Shares under the LTIP as set out below:

 PDMRs                         Number of Shares

 Clodagh Moriarty              141,992
 Paula Nickolds                131,054

 

(1)  The BSAs were granted based on performance during the 2022/23 financial
year.

(2)  The BSAs will vest following a two-year retention period, except for Jim
Brown's award, which will vest after a three-year retention period.

(3)  Dividend equivalents may be delivered (either in cash or Shares) in
respect of dividends accrued on any Shares which subsequently vest.

(4)  The share price to determine the number of Shares awarded was based on
the five dealing days average Share price prior to the grant date.

(5)  To comply with PRA and FCA banking regulations, the number of shares
awarded to Jim Brown will not be increased to reflect any dividends accrued
during the award's retention period. However, a one-time fair value adjustment
to his award was made at the point of grant based on a forecasted dividend
yield over the retention period to reflect the absence of dividend equivalents
accrued during the retention period.
