RNS Number : 5444B Secure Trust Bank PLC 22 April 2026
Secure Trust Bank PLC
Secure Trust Bank PLC (the "Company" or the "Group")
Grant of awards under the Company's 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") and
the Company's 2017 Deferred Bonus Plan ("DBP")
On 21 April 2026 the Company granted nil-cost options over ordinary shares of
40p each ("Ordinary Shares") under the LTIP to the following PDMRs:
PDMR Number of Ordinary Shares over which options granted
Ian Corfield 52,192
Rachel Lawrence 38,015
Andrew Phillips 21,929
Luke Jooste 13,421
James Appleby 7,309
Each option has been granted subject to performance conditions which will be
set by the Remuneration Committee in line with the disclosure provided in the
Directors Remuneration Report, within the Annual Report for the year ended 31
December 2025, which is available on the Company's website
(www.securetrustbank.com/investors (http://www.securetrustbank.com/investors)
). The performance conditions will also include an underpin measure which
includes an assessment of general financial performance, shareholder
experience, risk management performance and progress against the Group's
strategy. The performance period in each case is a period of three years
starting on 1 January 2026 and ending 31 December 2028.
Each option will, ordinarily, vest on the date on which the Company's
Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors, determines the extent to
which the performance conditions have been satisfied or three years from the
date of grant. Each option will be released so that the participant is
entitled to exercise the vested Ordinary Shares on the vesting date, except in
the case of Ian Corfield and Rachel Lawrence when the date of release will be
at the end of a holding period which will end on the second anniversary of the
vesting date.
The number of shares under each option was set by reference to a value per
Ordinary Share of £13.68, which was the 3-day average mid-market price
determined between 17 April 2026 to 20 April 2026.

Shares under the DBP in respect of bonuses earned for the period ended 31
