G4S PLC
DEALINGS BY DIRECTORS AND PERSONS DISCHARGING MANAGERIAL
RESPONSIBILITY
(Disclosures made in accordance with DTR 3.1.2R)
The company has been notified that, on 10 November 2009, the
following directors of, and other persons discharging managerial
responsibility ("PDMRs") within, G4S plc acquired shares in the
company by exercising executive share options.
The options exercised by the directors and PDMRs were granted during
the period 1999 to 2001 and were therefore granted over Securicor plc
shares that were subsequently rolled over into G4S plc shares at the
time of the merger between Securicor and Group 4 Falck in 2004. These
options were due to expire between 2009 and 2011 and the directors
and PDMRs concerned considered it fiscally efficient to exercise them
during the current tax year.
Details of the options exercised and the exercise prices are as
follows:
