Richoux Group plc (the "Company")

Director/PDMR Shareholdings

Share Incentive Award

The Company announces that on 9 November 2017, certain Directors/PDMRs have subscribed for a special class of restricted shares in Richoux Limited ("A Shares"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, which may on vesting be exchanged for the relevant number of ordinary shares of 4 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") (the "Shares Incentives"). The subscription price for the A Shares is 1 penny per A Share.

The number of Ordinary Shares to be issued to each Director/PDMR in exchange for their A Shares will be determined by the following formula: the number of A Shares held multiplied by the closing mid-market price of the Ordinary Shares on the dealing day immediately preceding the vesting date less 10 pence, multiplied by 1,000. Pursuant to the Share Incentives, the relevant directors/PDMRs may acquire up to 3,400,000 Ordinary Shares in aggregate. The A Shares are equal in value to the net benefit that would be delivered if the Share Incentives were provided by way of a share option over Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of 10 pence per Ordinary Share (i.e. the value above 10 pence per Ordinary Share).

The A Shares can only be exchanged for Ordinary Shares if the average closing mid-market share price for the Ordinary Shares is 40p or more over any period of ten consecutive dealing days (the "Hurdle"). If the Hurdle is not met the A Shares will have no value. Subject to the Hurdle being met, the Share Incentives are exchangeable at the earliest of: (1) the second anniversary of the relevant subscription date, (2) a sale of 100% of the share capital of the Company to a third party or (3) a takeover event or a liquidation of the Company.

The Share Incentive subscriptions are set out below:

 
 Directors' Holdings               Number        Maximum 
                              of A Shares         number 
                               subscribed    of Ordinary 
                                      for         Shares 
                                             on exchange
