2020 Share Awards granted under the 2014 Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP")

Lagos and London, 2 December 2020: The following award over ordinary shares of 0.5 Naira each ("Shares") of Seplat Petroleum Development Company plc ("Seplat") was granted under the Seplat Petroleum Development Company Plc 2014 Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") to the Executive Director of the Company on 2 December 2020 as set out below.

This grant is being made to reflect Mr Roger Brown's promotion to CEO effective from 1(st) August 2020. We note that the Company operates a policy to protect shareholders from excessive dilution and manage annual LTIP award levels whereby the number of shares awarded is calculated based on the higher of Seplat's average share price and GBP1. Therefore, the number of shares has been calculated based on a share price of GBP1 as the share

price   on 1 August 2020 was GBP0.59. 

The award will normally vest on 2 December 2023 being the third anniversary of the Award Date subject to relative TSR and underpin performance conditions.

* In line with the approach approved by the Remuneration Committee, the number of shares to be granted was calculated by dividing the monetary value of the salary multiple relevant for the PDMR by the higher of the share price on 1 August 2020 or GBP1. As the share price on 1 August 2020 was GBP0.59, the calculation has been performed based on GBP1.
