Policy.
Following shareholder approval for the 2023 Directors' Remuneration Policy at
the AGM held on 20 July 2023, on 2 August 2023 (the "Grant Date"), the
following additional 2023/24 LTIP awards were granted to the two executive
directors, (each a person discharging managerial responsibilities), over
ordinary shares of 10p each in the Company, under the Premier Foods Long Term
Incentive Plan (the "LTIP").

consideration. No consideration was paid for the grant of the awards and no
consideration shall be payable when an award is exercised.
