As part of its dual listed company structure, Rio Tinto notifies dealings in Rio Tinto plc and Rio Tinto Limited securities by PDMRs to both the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) and the London Stock Exchange (LSE).
Rio Tinto Equity Incentive Plan 2018 (EIP)
Bonus Deferral Awards and Performance Share Awards
The Remuneration Committee has approved a 50% deferral of the 2019 annual bonus for members of the Executive Committee to be delivered as a Bonus Deferral Award (BDA). Grants of BDA are made under the EIP over either Rio Tinto plc shares or Rio Tinto Limited shares (shares). The number of shares granted as a BDA was calculated using the five day average price of shares up to 13 March 2020. These awards will vest on the basis of service at 1 December 2022.
Performance Share Awards (PSA) are granted under the EIP and provides participants with the conditional right, subject to performance conditions being met, to receive shares. The number of shares comprised in the PSA is determined using the average share price for the year immediately preceding the commencement of the relevant performance period. As advised in the Rio Tinto 2019 Annual report, published on 27 February 2020, these values are £43.43 in the case of Rio Tinto plc shares and A$94.22 in the case of Rio Tinto Limited shares. The awards granted in 2020 will be measured against the Total Shareholder Return performance conditions after five years (as at the end of 2024). The level of PSA granted is as advised on page 123 (Jean-Sébastien Jacques and Jakob Stausholm) and 127 (all others named below) of the 2019 Annual report.
