Interests of Directors / Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility ("PDMRs")

in the Company's Shares

   1.         Grant of 2023 Awards under the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan (2017) 

Capricorn announces that, on 28 July 2023, the following Awards (in the form of "nil-cost" options) over its ordinary shares of (490) /(143) pence each ("Shares") were made under the Long Term Incentive Plan approved by shareholders in 2017 (the "2017 LTIP") to the undernoted Executive Director and PDMR of the Company:

 
     Executive Director / PDMR        Number of Shares 
 Randy Neely, Chief Executive             538,502 
                                     ----------------- 
 Nathan Piper, Commercial Director        107,700 
                                     ----------------- 
 

All Shares were awarded at GBP1.857 per Share, being the average mid-market closing price of a Share over the three dealing days immediately preceding the grant date. The vesting of the Awards (which, in the case of Randy Neely's, has been granted in accordance with the Company's directors' remuneration policy that was approved at the 2023 AGM) depends upon the extent to which specified performance conditions are met over a three-year performance period. Following any such vesting, the Award granted to Randy Neely will be subject to a further two year "holding period" during which it cannot be exercised.

   2.         Summary of current holdings of Executive Directors / PDMRs 

Following the grant of the above Awards, the Executive Director's and PDMR's beneficial interests in the Shares of the Company are as follows:
