Deferred Annual Bonus Plan Awards
On 9 February 2023, the Company granted awards to the Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ('PDMRs') listed below. The awards have been granted in accordance with the rules of the GlaxoSmithKline 2017 Deferred Annual Bonus Plan ('DABP') which was approved by shareholders on 4 May 2017.
Executive Directors and other members of the GSK Leadership Team are required to defer part of any bonus earned into Ordinary Shares or American Depositary Shares ('ADSs') for three years. Under the terms of the Remuneration Policy approved by shareholders in 2022, Executive Directors are required to defer 50% of bonus equivalent of the first 200% of salary with any portion in excess of 200% being deferred in full. Other members of the GSK Leadership Team are required to defer 25% of bonus equivalent of the first 170% of salary into Ordinary Shares or ADSs with any portion in excess of 170% being deferred in full.
The awards have been granted as restricted awards over ADSs for US participants and as nil-cost options over Ordinary Shares for all other participants.
The numbers of Ordinary Shares and ADSs shown below are exclusive of dividend reinvestment that will accrue during the deferral period.
