MJ Gleeson plc ("Gleeson" or the "Company")

Performance Share Plan award to Directors/PDMRs

The Company announces that on 11 November 2019 Stefan Allanson, Chief Financial Officer, exercised share options ("Share Options") over 73,531 ordinary shares of 2 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") in connection with the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP").

Application has been made for the admission to trading of the new Ordinary Shares, which rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares, on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange and to listing on the Official List of the UKLA, with dealings expected to commence on or around 15 November 2019.

Subsequent to the exercise and issue of the new Ordinary Shares, the Company has been notified that Stefan Allanson sold 34,663 Ordinary Shares at a price of GBP8.00 per Ordinary Share in order to satisfy tax liabilities resulting from the exercise of the above-mentioned options. Following the exercise and the sale, Stefan Allanson's shareholding has increased to 55,765 Ordinary Shares in the Company, representing 0.1 per cent. of the total voting rights in the Company.

Total Voting Rights

Following the issue of the new Ordinary Shares the total number of issued Ordinary Shares is 54,675,284. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in Treasury.

Therefore, the total number of Ordinary Shares with voting rights is 54,675,284 which may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's DTR.
