Gresham House announces that its wholly-owned subsidiary Gresham House Holdings Limited ("GHHL") has, pursuant to the long term incentive plan approved by the Company's shareholders at the General Meeting of Gresham House held on 20 November 2015 ("2016 LTIP"), received requests from three PDMRs to exercise their put options over the GHHL shares listed below ("Put Options"), following satisfaction of both the Hurdle Condition and the Performance Condition set out in the Company's announcement dated 23 December 2019.

 

Following the exercise of the Put Options, the Directors/PDMRs listed below retain significant share-based long-term incentives in the Company.
