SABMiller plc
Update on 2 June 2011 Share Award Plan announcement (RNS Number 7469H)
Notification of Transactions of Directors and Persons Discharging Managerial
Responsibility or connected persons in accordance with DTR3.1
On 2 June 2011, SABMiller plc announced that certain Directors and Persons
Discharging Managerial Responsibility ("PDMRs") had been awarded a number of nil
cost conditional awards on 1 June 2011 under the SABMiller plc Executive Share
Award Plan 2008 (the "Plan").
However, although the Remuneration Committee had resolved to recommend to the
Trustees of the Company`s employees` benefit trust that these awards be made,
the Company decided, in light of the uncertainty about the potential impact of
new, retrospectively applicable and not then fully implemented UK taxation
legislation on "disguised remuneration", to await the issue of further guidance
from Her Majesty`s Revenue and Customs ("HMRC") before making any recommendation
to the Trustees, and accordingly these awards were not in fact then made by the
Trustees.
Subsequently, following the publication of updated guidance by HMRC, these
awards were made by the Company on 29 September 2011, and accordingly on 30
September 2011 the following Directors and PDMRs notified the Company in
compliance with DTR 3.1 that they had been awarded, on 29 September 2011, nil
cost conditional awards under the Plan in respect of the numbers of shares in
the Company as set out below. These awards were made on the basis approved by
the Remuneration Committee earlier in the year, including as to quantum and the
respective performance conditions.

(Note 1) The conditional awards of a fixed number of EPS-based performance
shares are subject to testing against the Company`s three-year adjusted earnings
per share growth.
(Note 2) The above specified number of TSR-based performance shares have been
conditionally awarded for each GBP10 million of additional shareholder value
created, defined as the amount by which the growth in the Company`s market
capitalisation plus net equity cash flows exceeds the median growth of a
weighted peer group index, over a five year performance period.
