("Super Group")
GRANTS TO AND ACCEPTANCES OF OPTIONS BY EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS, THE GROUP COMPANY
SECRETARY AND A DIRECTOR OF A MATERIAL SUBSIDIARY UNDER SHARE INCENTIVE
ARRANGEMENTS
In compliance with rule 3.63 to 3.66 of the Listings Requirements, shareholders
are advised that the executive directors and the group company secretary of
Super Group and a director of a material subsidiary of Super Group have, in
terms of the Share Appreciation Right Scheme 2005 ("the Scheme"), been granted
rights to receive shares which grants have been accepted.
Shareholder approval of the Scheme was obtained at the 2005 Annual General
Meeting. All rights have conditions attached and are subject to the rules of
the Scheme. The Remuneration Committee approved the grants and the required
clearance in terms of the Listings Requirements was obtained.
The Scheme supports the principle of aligning management and shareholder
interests. Performance conditions governing the vesting of these rights are
intended to be stretching but achievable. The performance conditions are
related to headline earnings per share increasing by 2% per annum above the
Consumer Price Inflation Index over the three year performance period ending
June 2013. The grants are conditional upon the participant remaining employed
during the performance period.
We refer to the SENS issued on 2 March 2011. At that time the full allocation of
options, as approved by the Remuneration Committee at its meeting in February,
was not allocated as a result of a required change to the rules of the Scheme.
The change required the approval by Super Group shareholders which was proposed
at the Company`s Annual General Meeting on 25 November 2011 and the necessary
approval was obtained. The allocation below is the balance as approved by the
Remuneration Committee.
The rights granted to and accepted by the following directors and officers vest
upon confirmation that the performance conditions have been fulfilled.
