Vesting of 2017 Directors Performance Share Plan Awards
Ten Entertainment Group plc (the "Company") announces that on 22 May 2020, the Performance Share Plan awards granted in the 2017 scheme on 22 May 2017 have vested. The awards were granted to the three Executive Directors at the time, of which only Graham Blackwell is still with the Company. Continuous employment over the term of the scheme is a performance condition and thus only Graham Blackwell can exercise his options.
The Remuneration Committee reviewed the other performance conditions of the scheme with 50% applying to Earning per Share (EPS) and 50% to Total Shareholder Return (TSR). Only the TSR performance condition was met and so the Remuneration Committee have only approved the vesting of 96,970 ordinary shares in the Company. The Company has elected to settle the awards via the issuance of ordinary shares.

The Shares will rank pari passu with the Company's existing ordinary shares and dealings are expected to commence at 8.00am on 26 May 2020. Following admission of the Shares, the Company will have a total of 68,346,970 ordinary shares in issue. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interests in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
Further details regarding the share awards are set out within the Directors' Remuneration Report within the Company's 2019 Annual Report. This announcement is made in accordance with Article 19 of the EU Market Abuse Regulation
