("Time Finance", the "Group" or the "Company")

 

Unapproved Share Option Scheme - Vesting of Awards

 

Director/PDMR Shareholding

 

Time Finance plc, the AIM listed independent specialist finance provider,
announces that following the achievement of time-based criteria in relation to
the Company's Unapproved Share Option Scheme (the "Scheme"), a total of
202,500 previously awarded nil cost options over ordinary shares of 10 pence
each in the capital of the Company vested on 3 October 2022 (the "Vested
Options").

 

The terms of the Scheme were previously announced by the Group on 29 October
2020 and it is intended that existing ordinary shares held by the Company's
Employee Benefit Trust be utilised to meet any future exercise of these Vested
Options and of any further Scheme options that may vest in the future.

 

The Vested Options are held by the below Directors/PDMRs of the Company and
may be exercised at any time prior to an expiry date of 30 September 2023.

 

                   Position  Number of Vested Options
 James Roberts     CFO       123,500
 Lorraine Neyland  PDMR      31,000
 Alun Winter       PDMR      24,000
 Phil Chesham      PDMR      24,000

 

A further 202,500 share options previously granted under the Scheme remain
unvested due to the time-based element of their criteria. Subject to the
recipients' continued employment with the Group, this remaining final tranche
of Scheme options would vest in October 2023.

 

The notifications below, provided in accordance with the requirements of the
UK Market Abuse Regulation, provide further details.
