WYNNSTAY GROUP PLC

("Wynnstay" or "the Company")

Award of Options under the Company's Performance Share Plan

and Share Option Plan

Wynnstay, the agricultural supplies group, announces the award of options ("Options") over ordinary shares of 25p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") approved under the terms of its established plans, the Wynnstay Performance Share Plan ("PSP") and the Wynnstay Group Approved Company Share Option Plan ("CSOP").

The PSP Options offer the recipients the entitlement to acquire a maximum number of Ordinary Shares ("Award Shares") on or after 31 October 2023 at nil cost, subject to the Company achieving the following minimum reported performance criteria:

1. 75% of the Award Shares will vest if the Company's earnings per share ("EPS") grows at an annual rate exceeding the rate of growth of the Retail Price Index ("RPI") plus 8%. Where this growth is not met, provided EPS grows at an annual rate of at least RPI plus 1%, 30% of the Award Shares tested under the EPS target will vest. Between these criteria, the Award Shares will vest on a straight-line basis.

2. 25% of the Award Shares will vest if the Company's return on capital employed ("ROCE") increases to at least 12.6% for the financial year ending 31 October 2023. Where this target is not met, provided a minimum ROCE employed of 10% is met, the Award Shares will vest between these two criteria on a straight-line basis.

The total number of PSP Award Shares over which Options have been granted on 23 April 2021 amounts to 84,728, and included in this grant were Options made to the following executive directors and Company Secretary:
