## Press Release	## 30 October 2013

Synectics plc

(the "Company" or the "Group")

Director PDMR shareholding

The Company has been notified that the Trustee of the Company's HMRC Approved Employee Share Acquisition Plan ("ESAP") has purchased 4,723 ordinary shares of 20 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") in accordance with the ESAP's rules and on behalf of all ESAP participants.

The shares were purchased in two tranches - 223 shares acquired on 4 October 2013 at a price of 488 pence each (purchased as part of the reinvestment of the Company's interim dividend) and 4,500 shares acquired on 14 October 2013 at a price of 489p each.

Under the terms of the ESAP, participating members, including employees and certain Directors of the Company, contribute a fixed amount to the Trustee on a monthly basis. The Trustee acquires a number of shares in the Company at the end of the contribution period (the "Period") (normally 6 months) based upon the contributions made in the preceding period and determined by the lowest share price at either the beginning of the Period or on the purchase day. In this instance the share price used for allocation of the number of shares for ESAP purposes was the price at the beginning of the Period.

As a result of these purchases, the Company has been notified that John Shepherd and Nigel Poultney, directors of the Company, have each acquired an interest in 225 Synectics shares.

Following the award of options over the Shares notified to the Company today, and the share purchases in relation to the ESAP, the interests of John Shepherd and Nigel Poultney in Synectics shares are as follows:
