2017 Awards - Notification of Transactions by Persons
Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ('PDMRs')
Pursuant to the notification obligations under EU Market Abuse
Regulations Article 19.1 the Company granted awards over its
ordinary shares of 10 pence each under the Performance Share Plan
('PSP') and Restricted Share Plan ('RSP') on 25 August 2017 to
PDMRs as set out below.
PSP awards granted to PDMRs in the UK were made in the form of
nil-cost options, which become exercisable following the end of a
three year performance period, subject to the satisfaction of
performance targets. Options are then exercisable until the tenth
anniversary of the date of grant.
PSP awards granted to PDMRs in Turkey were made in the form of a
nil-cost conditional share award, and the shares comprised in it
will be transferred following the end of a three year performance
period, subject to the satisfaction of performance targets.
The PSP performance period will run from 25 August 2017 to 24
August 2020.
The award granted under the RSP was made in the form of nil-cost
options and becomes exercisable in three tranches; 25% on the first
anniversary of the award, 25% on the second anniversary of the
award and 50% on the third anniversary of the award.
Following vesting, shares are retained for an additional two
years for Executive Directors and Executive Committee members under
the Company's Retention Policy.
The PSP awards are as follows:
Name No. of shares Lapse date Total number of
subject shares over which
to PSP Award options/awards are

Murat Özgül 20,706 n/a 2,795,037

Separately, Genel's Board has recently reviewed the total
remuneration package of Murat Özgül, Chief Executive Officer. It
has been agreed that his annual salary will reduce from GBP625,000
to GBP500,000, effective as of 1 August 2017. In tandem, his PSP
award has increased from 150% to 200% of annual salary. The PSP
award is subject to performance conditions that the Board considers
to be appropriately stretching, and maximum vesting would represent
significant value creation for shareholders.
The Board believes these changes bring the CEO remuneration into
line with comparable listed E&P companies, better align
remuneration with the long-term performance of the Company, and are
further evidence of the Company's continuing focus on reducing
general and administrative costs. Total general and administrative
cash costs have fallen from $40 million in 2014 to $18 million in
2016, with a further reduction forecast in 2017.
