THE LISTING RULES |
Diageo plc (the Company) announces:
1) that it received notification on 10 May 2004 for the purposes of Section 329 of the Companies Act 1985 from Diageo Share Ownership Trustees Limited (the Trustee), as trustee of the Diageo Share Incentive Plan (the Plan) that:
(i) the Trustee purchased 44,850 ordinary shares of 28 101/108 pence in the Company (Ordinary Shares) in respect of participants in the Plan on 10 May 2004 at a price of £7.52 per share. The Ordinary Shares were purchased by Diageo Share Ownership Trustees Limited, which holds Ordinary Shares as trustee of the Plan;
(ii) that the following directors of the Company were allocated Ordinary Shares on 10 May 2004 under the Plan, from those purchased by the Trustee as disclosed in (i) above:
Name of Director |
Number of Ordinary Shares |
|||
N C Rose |
25 | |||
P S Walsh |
25 |
The number of Ordinary Shares allocated comprises those purchased by the Trustee using an amount which the employee has chosen to have deducted from salary (Sharepurchase) and those awarded to the employee by the Company (Sharematch) on the basis of one Sharematch Ordinary Share for every two Sharepurchase Ordinary Shares.
The Sharepurchase Ordinary Shares were purchased and the Sharematch Ordinary Shares were awarded at a price per share of £7.52.
The Ordinary Shares are held by the Trustee. Sharepurchase Ordinary Shares can normally be sold at any time. Sharematch Ordinary Shares cannot normally be disposed of for a period of three years after the award date.
As a result of the above, these directors interests in the Companys Ordinary Shares (excluding options, awards under the Companys LTIPs and also
interests as potential beneficiaries of the Grand Metropolitan No 2 Employee Share Trust and the Diageo Employee Benefit Trust) are as follows:
Name of Director |
Number of Ordinary Shares |
|||
N C Rose |
172,274 | |||
P S Walsh |
671,921 |
As a result of purchases, awards and transfers made by the Trustee on behalf of the Company on 10 May 2004 in respect of all participants in the Plan, the total holding of the Trustee now amounts to 3,286,336 Ordinary Shares.
2) that it received notification on 10 May 2004 from Lord Blyth that he has purchased 991 Ordinary Shares on 10 May 2004 under an arrangement with the Company, whereby he has agreed to use an amount of £7,500 per month, net of tax, from his fees to purchase Ordinary Shares. Lord Blyth has agreed to retain the Ordinary Shares while he remains a director of the Company.
The Ordinary Shares were purchased at a price per share of £7.52.
As a result of this purchase, Lord Blyths interest in Ordinary Shares has increased to 41,656.
