Director / PDMR Shareholding

Serabi announces that on 12 May 2026 the Board of Directors agreed to award in
aggregate 458,114 Conditional Share Awards (“CSA’s”) to employees
(including directors) of the Company. The awards are part of the Company's
normal annual compensation review and the issuance is made under the Serabi
2020 Restricted Share Plan (the “2020 Plan”) which was approved by
shareholders on 16 June 2020 and adopted by the Board on 10 November 2020.

The awards are subject to a three-year performance period during which time
certain performance criteria stipulated by the Board must be attained. The
underlying shares to be issued pursuant to each of the Conditional Share
Awards will only be issued and the rights transferred to the employees after
the completion of the performance period and only in such amount (if any) as
is required based on the achievement of the performance criteria.

The performance criteria and targets for the 2026 Awards are summarised below:

2026.

From 2026, a shareholding requirement will be introduced requiring Mike
Hodgson and Colm Howlin to build a shareholding of 150% and 135% of salary
respectively within five years. Until the shareholding is achieved, the
Executive Directors will be required to retain 50% of the net of tax vested
shares from all future share awards

Following these latest awards there are 2,202,948 Conditional Share Awards in
issue representing 2.91% of the issued share capital of the Company (excluding
