GENERAL TEXT AMENDMENT
The following amendments have been made to the 'Notification and public disclosure of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMR") and persons closely associated with them ("PCA")' announcement released on 15 September 2016 at 13.11 hours under RNS No. 9682J.
On 15 November 2016 the Company's share plan administrator, Computershare Plan Managers, advised the Company that there had been a system error resulting in Lindsay Beardsell's Matching Shares under the SuperGroup Share Incentive Plan ("SIP") not being calculated in respect of the allocation of Matching Shares by the SIP Trustees on 13 September 2016. As a consequence of this error, the number of Matching Shares disclosed by the Company on 15 September 2016 was incorrect. The number of Matching Shares allocated to Lindsay Beardsell should have included one (1) Matching Share.
The amendments are identified with an asterisk (*) below. All other details remain unchanged.
The full amended text is also shown below.
