NOTIFICATION OF TRANSACTIONS OF PERSONS DISCHARGING MANAGERIAL
RESPONSIBILITIES
On 30 July 2015 the boards of HellermannTyton Group PLC
("HellermannTyton") and Delphi Automotive PLC ("Delphi") announced
that they had reached agreement on the terms of a recommended offer
for the acquisition of the entire issued and to be issued ordinary
share capital of HellermannTyton by Delphi (the "Offer"). In
accordance with the terms of the Offer, the acquisition is proposed
to be implemented by means of a scheme of arrangement of
HellermannTyton under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006 (the
"Scheme").
Yesterday the High Court of Justice of England and Wales
sanctioned the Scheme at the Scheme Court Hearing, and the
Effective Date of the Scheme is expected to be on, or around, 18
December 2015.
In accordance with the requirements of Rule 3.1.4R of the
Disclosure Rules and Transparency Rules, HellermannTyton announces
that on 16 December 2015 the persons set out in the table below,
each being a Person Discharging Managerial Responsibility (a
"PDMR"), acquired the beneficial title to ordinary shares of
nominal value EUR0.01 each in the capital of HellermannTyton
("Shares") pursuant to:
1. the HellermannTyton Group PLC Global Share Plan (the "GSP"); and
2. the 2013 HellermannTyton Group PLC Long-Term Incentive Plan
(the "LTIP", and together with the GSP, the "Plans").
The GSP and LTIP are employee and executive share plans,
respectively, operated by HellermannTyton. Each PDMR was not
required to pay anything for the shares acquired.
The awards vested and/or became exercisable in full yesterday
upon the Court's sanction of the Scheme.
The number of Shares to which PDMRs acquired beneficial title
under the terms of the Plans is as follows:

scheme of arrangement is not subject to the proxy solicitation or
tender offer rules under the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934
