LLOYDS BANKING GROUP PLC ('GROUP') - NOTIFICATION OF TRANSACTIONS BY PERSONS DISCHARGING MANAGERIAL RESPONSIBILITIES ('PDMRs') IN ORDINARY SHARES OF THE GROUP OF 10 PENCE EACH ('SHARES')

On 22 February 2017, the Group published details of upcoming remuneration disclosures for the Group, including salary, bonus, Long-Term Incentive Plan awards and Fixed Share Awards for PDMRs ('Summary Remuneration Announcement'). Where awards had not yet been made, estimates were provided. The Group announces that the following awards were made and released on 6 March 2017.

This announcement should be read in conjunction with the Summary Remuneration Announcement and disclosures in the 2016 Annual Report and Accounts published on 22 February 2017. The 2016 Annual Report and Accounts is available on the 'Annual Reports' page in the 'Investors & Performance' section of the Group's website www.lloydsbankinggroup.com.

2016 GROUP ANNUAL BONUS

For Executive Directors and the Group Executive Committee, awards are determined in the same way as employees across the Group by reference to Group, business area and individual performance. Information regarding the performance of the Executive Directors in 2016 can be found in the Annual Report and Accounts. As announced on 22 February 2017, annual bonus awards are deferred into Shares under the Lloyds Banking Group Deferred Bonus Plan ('Deferred Bonus Award') and are subject to performance adjustment throughout the deferral period. Deferred Bonus Awards made to Executive Directors and members of the Group Executive Committee are subject to clawback for at least seven years from the date of grant. This period may be extended to ten years where there is an ongoing internal or regulatory investigation.

2016 Annual Bonus Awards

In line with requirements of the PRA Rulebook and FCA Remuneration Code (SYSC 19D), a maximum of 40 per cent of any variable remuneration awarded to Executive Directors and other members of the Group Executive Committee can be paid in 2017. The remaining 60 per cent must be deferred.

For the 2016 Annual Bonus, £2,000 is paid in cash in March 2017. The first tranche of the Deferred Bonus Awards vest in June 2017 based on the prevailing share price, with the number of Shares notified to the market at that time. The remaining tranches were granted yesterday and will vest over the period September 2017 to September 2019 and are shown below:

		Name	Number of Shares awarded(1)
		António Horta-Osório	1,417,778
		George Culmer	667,685

		Vim Maru	527,311
		Zak Mian	357,199
		David Oldfield	694,440
		Matt Young	252,003
1	Based on a Share price of 68.814 pence being the average of the closing Share price of the five trading days prior to the date of award. This is the maximum number of Shares under award which will be subject to income tax and national insurance contributions on vesting.

Deferred Bonus Awards for 2013, 2014 and 2015 Performance

As announced on 22 February 2017, Deferred Bonus Awards are due to be released in 2017 which relate to performance in 2013, 2014 and 2015. In accordance with the Group's deferral policy, a proportion of the Shares are released over three years, being received in tranches in March and September.

In this respect, the Group announces that yesterday, after the settlement of income tax and national insurance contributions, the PDMRs listed in the table below received the number of Shares (for no payment) as set out by their name. A further announcement will be made in September for the September release.

1 To be released later in March when a further announcement will be made.

Release of Long-Term Incentive Awards made in March 2014

As announced on 22 February 2017, the Group has delivered a good financial performance over the performance period of the 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) awards, continuing to transform the business for the benefit of our shareholders. The scale of the challenge was set out in stretching targets of the 2014 LTIP as approved by the Remuneration Committee and our shareholders. At the end of the performance period, it has been assessed that these awards will vest at 55 per cent of maximum.

In this respect, the Group announces that, after the settlement of income tax and national insurance contributions, the PDMRs listed in the table below yesterday received (for no payment) the number of Shares (including dividend equivalents) as set out by their name, following the partial vesting of long-term awards made in March 2014. Executive Directors and Material Risk Takers at the time of the award in 2014 are required to retain any Shares vesting for a further two years.

As outlined in the 2016 Annual Report and Accounts, the FCA changed the approach to complaint classification and reporting from 30 June 2016.
