("Filta" or the "Company")

Awards of share options and share appreciation rights

Filta Group Holdings plc (AIM: FLTA), a provider of fryer management and other services to commercial kitchens, announces that, further to previous announcements, an employee share option scheme for qualifying UK employees ("2017 Filta Group Holdings EMI Scheme") and a share acquisition rights ("SARs") scheme for qualifying US employees ("2017 Filta Group Inc Stock Appreciation Rights Plan") have been adopted by the Company.

Under the 2017 Filta Group Holdings EMI Scheme, the Company has granted options to the following persons discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMRs"):

 
 PDMR                  No of options 
 Debbie Sarson-Lowe    70,000 
 Alastair Anderson     30,000 
 Edward Palin          90,000 
 

The options have an exercise price of 215 pence per share and vest over a period of 4 years from 2020 to 2023, subject to the satisfaction of both time and certain performance conditions relating to annual profit growth over defined targets, and are exercisable at any time after vesting for a period of 10 years from 11 January 2019. The Company has a total of 1,250,000 options over ordinary shares outstanding, representing approximately 4.30% of the Company's current issued share capital.

Under the 2017 Filta Group Inc Stock Appreciation Rights Plan, the SARs are structured as conditional cash bonuses whose value will be calculated by reference to the amount by which the price of the Company's ordinary shares has risen above the base price of 215 pence at the date of exercise. The Company has issued a total of 120,000 SARs to the following PDMRs:

 
 PDMR                      No of SARs 
 Brian Hogan (Director)    30,000 
 Tom Dunn (PDMR)           30,000 
 Rob Totten (PDMR)         30,000 
 Annalisa Bhim (PDMR)      30,000 
 

The vesting period and conditions for the SARs scheme are identical to those for the 2017 Filta Group Holdings EMI Scheme. The Company has a total of 505,000 unvested SARs outstanding,
