LPA Group PLC

23 July 2020

LPA GROUP PLC

("LPA" or the "Group")

Grant of Share Options

LPA Group Plc, the high reliability LED lighting and electro-mechanical system manufacturer, announces the award of share options (the "Share Options") under the LPA Group plc Performance Share Plan 2018 ("PSP 2018") to the following directors / PDMRs and other employees of the Group (the "Award Holders"), as follows:

Director/PDMR Position Number of Options Exercise Price
Paul Curtis CEO 30,000 63.17p
Chris Buckenham CFO 25,000 63.17p
John Hesketh MD - LPA Lighting Systems 15,000 63.17p
Jonathan Rowe MD - LPA Connection Systems 15,000 63.17p
Subtotal 85,000 63.17p
Other employees 35,000 63.17p
Total Awards 120,000 63.17p

Under the terms of the PSP, the Share Options may be exercised from 23 July 2023 until 22 July 2030.  The Share Options are also subject to clawback and malus provisions.

It is the expectation of the Company that the LPA Employee Benefit Trust (the "EBT") will satisfy the awards when exercised.  In the event that the EBT does not satisfy the awards when exercised, the Company will do so through an issue of new ordinary shares to the Award Holders.

As a result of the grant of the Share Options, the total number of options in place for directors and employees of LPA is as follows:

Number of Options Exercise Price
540,000 36.00p
100,000 32.00p
185,000 49.00p
150,000 104.83p
255,000 109.33p
120,000 63.17p
1,350,000

The grants of the Share Options to the directors and PDMRs named above are deemed to be related party transactions for the purposes of Rule 13 of the AIM Rules (the "Transaction"). The directors independent of the Transaction, being Len Porter, Gordon Wakefield and Peter Pollock consider, having consulted with the Company's Nominated Adviser, that the terms of the Transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as its shareholders are concerned.

This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of EU Regulation 596/2014.
