Notification of Transactions by Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility ("PDMRs")

Hays plc Performance Share Plan (the "Plan")

In accordance with Disclosure and Transparency Rule 3.1.4R (1) (a), the Company notifies the market of the following.

On 8 November 2012 PDMRs were awarded conditional rights under the Plan to receive, at nil cost, Ordinary 1p shares ("Shares") in the Company, subject to performance conditions being met (the "Awards"). 

The Company notified the market on 11 November 2015 of the vesting of the Awards (including Dividend Equivalent Shares, in accordance with the Rules of the Plan) and the associated release and sale of Shares.

In accordance with the Rules of the Plan, as the release date of the Awards fell after the Company's Dividend Record Date for the 2015 final dividend of 9 October 2015, further Dividend Equivalent Shares ("Additional Shares") were accrued on the Awards and were subject to approval of the dividend by shareholders at the Company's Annual General Meeting. Following approval by Shareholders, the Additional Shares were released to the PDMRs in accordance with the Rules of the Plan on 11 November 2015.

The Company was notified today that the Additional Shares shown in the table below were sold on 11 November 2015 at the price of 141.55 pence per Share, in settlement of tax liabilities and for other purposes. Unsold Shares were retained.
