FURTHER INFORMATION Dealing Restrictions If you have been notified by Inchcape that you are subject to share dealing rules, you must comply with the requirements imposed by the Company and, if applicable, seek clearance before proceeding with any transaction. All staff are subject to the law regarding market abuse e.g. dealing when in possession of inside information. Missed any payments or leaving the Company? If you’ve missed any payments during the savings period (up to a maximum of twelve) your Maturity Date will be deferred by one month for every payment that you’ve missed and you’ll continue to have deductions taken from your pay until you’ve completed the three year savings contract. In these circumstances you’ll have six months from the deferred Maturity Date (shown on your online account information), in which to exercise your Option and buy your shares. Any instructions received in respect of a deferred maturity will be processed at the first available opportunity following your deferred Maturity Date. If you’re no longer an employee of Inchcape or leave after the Maturity Date but before you’ve bought your shares, you may not be able to buy your shares. This will depend on your reason for leaving and the date on which you left. If you’re in any doubt about whether you can buy any shares please contact the YBS Share Plans Helpline on 0345 1 200 300. If you’re able to buy shares, you must do so within six months of leaving Inchcape or within six months of the Maturity Date, whichever event comes first. ...CONTINUED
What about tax? Under current legislation there is no Income Tax to pay as a result of buying your shares or taking your savings. You may however have to pay CGT if you sell your shares at a profit (this is the difference between the cost of buying your shares and the price you sell them for minus any sale expenses). HM Revenue & Customs currently allows you to make a certain level of capital gains in each tax year without being taxed. If your gain (which must include any other profit you have made within the tax year) exceeds the annual exemption limit, you will have to pay tax on any gain above this limit. The CGT limit for the 2019/2020 tax year is £12,000. Further information can be found on the HM Revenue & Customs website (www.hmrc. gov.uk). If your total capital gains exceed the annual exemption amount in any single tax year, they should be reported to HM Revenue & Customs, whether you receive a tax return or not. You may however be able to minimise your liability to CGT by; selling some of your shares in one tax year and the rest in other tax years, by giving some of your shares to your spouse or civil partner for them to sell and set against their annual CGT exemption, or by transferring shares into a Stocks and Shares ISA (subject to applicable limits) within 90 days of the date your share Option was exercised. The sale of shares within an ISA is free of CGT. For the 2019/20 tax year the maximum value of shares you can transfer into a Stock and Shares ISA is £20,000 (this limit may change for the 2020/21 tax year). The value of the shares will be based on the market value on the date the shares are transferred into the ISA.
