NOTIFICATION OF TRANSACTIONS OF DIRECTOR/PDMR

Awards under The Dixons Carphone plc Long Term Incentive Plan 2016

On 13 August 2018, the Company's new Group Chief Financial Officer, Jonny Mason, was granted pursuant to The Dixons Carphone plc Long Term Incentive Plan 2016 (LTIP) awards as nil cost options over ordinary shares of 0.1 pence in the Company ('Shares'), as follows:

 
 Award type     Base Salary   Percentage      Award       Number       Vesting     Exercise 
                 for Award     of base         Value       of Shares    date        price 
                 (GBP)         salary used     (GBP)       awarded 
                               to calculate 
                               award value 
                                                                       13 August 
    Normal        470,000         275%        1,292,500    734,583        2021       Nil 
               ------------  --------------  ----------  -----------  ----------  --------- 
                                                                       13 August 
 Recruitment      470,000         100%         470,000     267,121        2021       Nil 
               ------------  --------------  ----------  -----------  ----------  --------- 
 

The share price used to calculate the numbers of shares was the mid-market price on the dealing day prior to grant (10 August 2018).

The numbers of Shares awarded are the maximum numbers that could vest upon full satisfaction of the applicable performance condition(s).

The Awards will ordinarily vest on 13 August 2021 ('Vesting Date'), subject to Mr Mason's continued service with the Company and the extent to which the applicable performance condition(s) are achieved. Vested Shares will be subject to a two-year holding period (on a net of tax basis) from the Vesting Date.

The performance conditions applicable to the Awards are as follows (they are described in more detail in the Annual Report and Accounts):

1) Relative Total Shareholder Return ('TSR') performance condition - 50% of the Normal Award and 100% of the Recruitment Award

This ranks the Company's TSR against the TSRs of a comparator group of the companies ranked FTSE 51-150 at the start of the performance period (three financial years commencing with the financial year of grant). TSRs are averaged over one month periods before the beginning and end of the performance period. 25% of this portion of the Award will vest for achievement of median TSR ranking, with maximum vesting at upper quartile ranking or above. Straight-line vesting will apply between these two points.

   2)      Cumulative Free Cash Flow performance condition - 50% of the Normal Award 

This measures the Company's cumulative free cash flow over the same three-year performance period. 10% of this portion of the Award will vest if cumulative free cash flow is GBP517m, rising to 25% if it is GBP574m, and with maximum vesting if it is GBP689m or higher. Straight-line vesting applies between these points.

Buyout Award under Listing Rule 9.4.2(2)

On 13 August 2018, Mr Mason was separately granted a nil cost option ('Buyout Award'), pursuant to the terms of a one-off award agreement as follows:

 
 Award Reference   Number of Ordinary   Exercise Price 
  Value (GBP)       Shares under 
                    Buyout Award 
 143,286           81,435               Nil 
                  -------------------  --------------- 
 

The share price used to calculate the number of shares was the mid-market price on the day prior to grant (10 August 2018).

The Buyout Award will ordinarily vest on 13 August 2021 ('Vesting Date'), subject to Mr Mason's continued service with the Company and provided that neither party has served notice to terminate Mr Mason's employment. The Buyout Award will then become exercisable in three tranches as follows:

 
 Exercise Period commencing    Number of Ordinary Shares 
  on 
 13 August 2021                27,145 
                              -------------------------- 
 13 August 2022                27,145 
                              -------------------------- 
 13 August 2023                27,145 
                              -------------------------- 
 

It will normally remain exercisable until the 10(th) anniversary of its grant date. No performance condition applies.

The Buyout Award was entered into without prior shareholder approval relying on Listing Rule 9.4.2(2) and will be limited to settlement with market purchase Ordinary Shares.

As at the date of this announcement, the Company has 1,160,210,224 Ordinary Shares in issue.

This announcement is made in accordance with the requirements of Market Abuse Regulation Article 19.
