Notification of transactions of directors, persons discharging managerial responsibilities or
connected persons in accordance with DTR 3.1
The independent trustee of the SABMiller plc Employees’ Benefit Trust (EBT) notified SABMiller plc
(the Company) on 2 June 2014 that it had on 2 June 2014 exercised its discretion and released
ordinary shares in the Company to persons discharging managerial responsibility (PDMRs), as
summarised in the table below. These shares relate to conditional awards of performance shares
made on 1 June 2010 under the SABMiller plc Executive Share Award Plan 2008 which were
released to the participants during the year ended 31 March 2014 based on the Company’s TSR out-
performance of the median of the comparator group up to the end of the month prior to their
respective release dates.
As previously announced, one third of those shares were released to the participants on the
respective release dates during the year ended 31 March 2014, with the remaining two-thirds of the
shares being deferred and eligible for release in two further equal tranches on 1 June 2014 and
1 June 2015. There is no opportunity for the deferred shares to be retested against any future TSR
out-performance, and the deferred shares remain subject to forfeiture under certain circumstances
should a participant’s employment terminate before the fifth anniversary of the date of the original
award.
Although subject to the risk of forfeiture, participants are entitled to receive a notional dividend on their
deferred shares, calculated by reference to dividends actually paid by the Company during the
deferral period, and to be satisfied in the form of additional shares, subject to taxation, only once the
deferred shares are free from forfeiture risk and finally released to the participants.
