easyJet Share Incentive Plan: How the HMRC-Approved Scheme Works for UK Employees

The easyJet Share Incentive Plan is an HMRC-approved arrangement available to employees based in the United Kingdom. Under the scheme, participants may contribute up to £150 per month from their gross salary to purchase ordinary shares in the company, known as Partnership Shares. The shares carry a nominal value of 27 2/7 pence each and are traded on the London Stock Exchange. Equiniti Share Plan Trustees Limited acts as trustee of the plan and executes purchases on behalf of participating employees, including those classified as persons discharging managerial responsibilities.

Kenton Jarvis, Robert Birge and Garry Wilson Each Acquire 22 Shares at £6.88 Per Share

All three notifying executives purchased an identical volume of 22 ordinary shares each, at a price of £6.88 per share, with transactions executed on 10 November 2026 on the London Stock Exchange. Kenton Jarvis holds the role of Chief Executive of easyJet plc, Robert Birge serves as Chief Customer and Marketing Officer, and Garry Wilson is CEO of easyJet holidays, the group's package holiday division. Each notification is classified as an initial notification under Market Abuse Regulation disclosure obligations, confirming these are not amendments to previously reported transactions.

Routine Nature of the Transactions and Regulatory Context for MAR Disclosures

Purchases made through an HMRC-approved Share Incentive Plan via salary deductions are considered routine in nature, reflecting ongoing participation in an established employee share ownership scheme rather than discretionary open-market buying. Nevertheless, under the UK's Market Abuse Regulation framework, any acquisition of shares by a person discharging managerial responsibilities must be formally notified to the company and disclosed publicly. easyJet's LEI is recorded as 2138001S47XKWIB7TH90. Investors monitoring PDMR activity should note that similar disclosures may recur monthly as the plan operates on a salary-deduction cycle throughout the year.
