Director/PDMR Shareholding

Notification of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities and persons closely associated with them

11 July 2023

De La Rue plc (the "Company") announces that on 10 July 2023 awards made under the De La Rue Deferred Bonus Plan (the "DBP") to Clive Vacher, Rob Harding and Ruth Euling (each of whom is an Executive Director and a Person Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ("PDMR") of the Company) vested and were released.

In line with the rules of the DBP, the Company withheld a proportion of each award and sold sufficient Shares to fund income tax and national insurance withholdings and the associated dealing costs.  These Shares were sold in the market on 10 July 2023 at a weighted average price of 49.15 pence per Share.

The awards which vested were granted under the DBP on 8 July 2021 (the shares released being the second half of the portion of the FY21 bonus which was deferred and share settled) and on 6 July 2022 (the shares released being being the first half of the portion of the FY22 bonus which was deferred and share settled). The second half of the DBP awards made on 6 July 2022 will vest on 8 July 2024, subject to the rules of the DBP. 

The vesting of these awards and the sale of shares to fund withholdings creates a change in the interests of each of them in the ordinary shares of 44152/175p of the Company ("Shares"):

Name of Director/PDMR	Role	Number of Shares subject to the Awards vesting	Number of Shares sold in the market	Number of Shares retained by the PDMR
