("GBG" or the "Company")

Notification of Director's Interest

The Board of GBG announces that the purchases of ordinary shares of 2.5p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") by the executive directors in the period June to September 2019 were carried out in accordance with the Bonus Deferral and Share Matching Plan of the Company.

Accordingly, subject to the conditions outlined below and pursuant to the Bonus Deferral and Share Matching Plan rules, the executive directors' purchases have been matched with an award of options over Ordinary Shares ("Conditional Matching Option Awards").

The Conditional Matching Option Awards granted to the executive directors are set out in the table below. The awards reflect the maximum number of Ordinary Shares over which the option awards may be exercised. The actual number will depend upon the extent to which the established performance conditions detailed in GBG's annual report are satisfied over the performance period.

Following this announcement:

   (i)       Chris Clark has: 

-- a beneficial holding of 273,050 Ordinary Shares (which represents 0.14% of the issued share capital of the Company); and

   --      options over a maximum of 1,334,989 Ordinary Shares 
   (ii)      Dave Wilson has: 

-- a beneficial holding of 321,096 Ordinary Shares (which represents 0.17% of the issued share capital of the Company); and

   --      options over a maximum of 575,487 Ordinary Shares 
    (iii)    Nick Brown has: 

-- a beneficial holding of 1,077,312 Ordinary Shares (which represents 0.56% of the issued share capital of the Company); and

   --      options over a maximum of 486,002 Ordinary Shares. 

A summary of the rules of the Bonus Deferral and Share Matching Plan is as follows:

The Company announced in November 2011 that following consultation with its major shareholders, the Remuneration Committee of the Board approved the establishment of a salary sacrifice, bonus deferral and share matching plan whereby the executive directors and certain senior managers have the opportunity to elect to invest up to 20% of annual salary and up to 80% of annual bonus in Ordinary Shares. Subject to continued employment, the retention of these shares and the meeting of certain financial performance targets, the investment will be matched and grossed up for income taxes, to 2.0x the investment made by matching shares, in the form of options with a nominal value exercise price, which will, subject to these conditions, vest after three years.
