The options may vest, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, over a period of 3 years between 2019 and 2021 and are exercisable at any time after vesting and within 10 years from now. Options have been awarded over a total of 330,000ordinary shares, equivalent to 1.20% of the Company's current issued share capital.

The Company also announces that all qualifying US employees have been awarded share acquisition rights (SAR's). The SAR's are conditional bonuses whose value will be calculated by reference to the amount by which the price of the Company's ordinary shares has risen above the base price at the date of exercise, thus providing holders of SAR's the same reward value as if the SAR's were share options. The qualifying conditions and timing of vesting are identical to those within the share option scheme for UK employees. SAR's have been awarded to the following US-­‐ based Director and other PDMR's:
