Paragon Banking Group PLC
Director Shareholding
Granting of LTIP awards
On 4 March 2026, Paragon Banking Group PLC (the "Company") granted awards over
the Company's Ordinary Shares of £1.00 each to the following directors under
the Paragon Performance Share Plan 2023 ("PPSP").
Director Role Number of shares awarded under PPSP
N S Terrington Chief Executive Officer 206,478
R J Woodman Chief Financial Officer 130,465
No consideration was paid for the grant of the awards, which have been
structured as nil-cost options.
The number of shares subject to each PPSP award is based on a share price of
£7.996 which was the average closing mid-market price of the Company's shares
on each of the five dealing days following the announcement of the Company's
results for the year ended 30 September 2025. The PPSP awards will vest
subject to the satisfaction of performance conditions, which will be measured
over the period of three financial years ending on 30 September 2028. The
awards, to the extent they vest, will become exercisable in tranches as
follows: -
Proportion of vested Shares Normal Vesting date Holding Period
75% Third anniversary of date of grant Two years from the Vesting date
25% Fourth anniversary of date of grant One year from the Vesting date
The PPSP awards will, ordinarily, remain exercisable until the day before the
tenth anniversary of the date of grant. Shares subject to the post-vesting
holding period will operate with all associated shareholder rights, with the
exception of the right to transfer or sell shares, which will only be
permissible at the end of holding period, after which the shares can then be
transferred or sold.
Transfer of shares
Following approval of the Company's Remuneration Policy, at its Annual General
Meeting held on 4 March 2026, the shares acquired by the directors under the
Company's previous Salary in Shares arrangement (and prior to that its Role
Based Allowance arrangement) became fully transferable. The directors have
arranged for all shares acquired under these arrangements to be transferred as
follows: -
