NOTIFICATION OF TRANSACTIONS BY PERSONS DISCHARGING MANAGERIAL
RESPONSIBILITIES AND PERSONS CLOSELY ASSOCIATED WITH THEM
This notification sets out details of the vesting and settlement of awards over ordinary shares in the
Company granted on 19 June 2019 in respect of the deferred element of the short-term incentive (“STI”)
scheme pay-out for the financial year ended 31 March 2019. These awards were due to vest on 19 June
2021; however, in view of the potential development of sensitive information at the time relating to
Ramsay Health Care’s now expired offer for Spire, the Committee judged it prudent to defer vesting
until 20 July 2021.
The awards were granted under the Company’s previous remuneration policy, approved by
shareholders in July 2017. Accordingly, they will be settled in cash on 27 July 2021, based on the
middle-market quotation of a share on 19 July 2021, being 282.2 pence per share. The amount settled
includes the value of dividends attributable to the vested shares during the period between the date of
grant and the date of vesting, being a total of 7.90 pence per share.
The table below sets out the number of shares vested for the directors who were granted awards under
the STI on 19 June 2019, together with the corresponding cash settlement.
Name Number of shares vested Cash settlement
(including dividend
equivalents)
Dr Carel Aron van der Merwe1 21 962 £63 712
Petrus Jurgens Myburgh1 14 417 £41 824
Daniël Petrus Meintjes2 7 679 £22 277
Note:
1. As Executive Directors, Dr Ronnie van der Merwe and Jurgens Myburgh are required to build up
and maintain a minimum holding of shares equivalent to a value of 225% and 200% of their annual
base compensation respectively. As the holding requirements have not been met, under the
Company’s Remuneration Policy, Ronnie van der Merwe and Jurgens Myburgh are each required
to use 50% of the net of tax proceeds to purchase ordinary shares in Mediclinic.
2. As explained on page 171 of the 2019 Annual Report, upon Danie Meintjes’ retirement as an
executive Director on 31 July 2018, the Remuneration Committee considered both investors’
expectations and South African labour market requirements in determining the treatment of his
outstanding incentive awards. In accordance with his Service Agreement and the shareholder-
approved Directors’ Remuneration Policy, it was agreed that Danie Meintjes remained eligible to
receive a pro-rated STI award in June 2019 in respect of the period during which he served as an
executive Director (1 April 2018 to 31 July 2018).
