("Byotrol" or the "Company")

Grant of share incentive awards to Directors and senior managers

1.  Establishment and operation of the Company's new Long Term Incentive Plan

Byotrol Plc (AIM: BYOT), the specialist infection prevention and control company, announces that, on 15 December 2022, it granted awards ("Awards") over 22,000,000 ordinary shares of 0.25 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to Board Directors and senior leadership team pursuant to the terms of its newly established Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP"), details of which are set out below:

Options outstanding over Ordinary Shares following this award, including those detailed above, now total 37,179,650 which equates to 8.2% of issued share capital, well within the guidelines set out by the ABI and considered best practice.

The LTIP has been established in order to incentivise Executive Directors and certain senior managers to deliver long term value for shareholders, align their interests with the various stakeholders and retain these key individuals within the business. No consideration was paid for the grant of the Awards, which have been structured as "nil cost" options. All option awards will lapse if the employee leaves the business prior to vesting, save for standard, very limited 'Good Leaver' provisions.

16,000,000 of the 22,000,000 options being issued are being structured as Retention Awards, dependent solely on continued employment at date of vesting.  8,000,000 options will vest automatically at 18 months from grant and 8,000,000 at 36 months from grant, with an exercise price of 2.15 pence

The 6,000,000 Performance Awards detailed in the above table for Executive Directors only will normally vest on the third and fourth anniversary of grant, dependent on exceeding certain performance targets relating to Total Stock Return, Revenue or EBITDA.  The exercise price of these options will be 0.25 pence.

Once the Awards have vested, they will generally be available to be exercised until the seventh anniversary of their original grant.

Further information in relation to the LTIP will be included in Byotrol's next annual report and financial statements.
