Nature of the transaction

Duncan Tatton-Brown, an Executive Director of Ocado, sold 365,000 shares awarded to him under tranche 1 of the Ocado Joint Share Ownership Scheme on 1 November 2012.
The JSOS scheme, which was put in place prior to the Company's Admission in 2010, involves the Executive Directors investing their own funds to purchase a shared interest in the Company's shares at the market value at that time. The Executive Directors invested from their own resources. The Ocado Employee Benefit Trust Trustee's interest in each Ordinary Share held under the JSOS is the value up to a specified price for the tranche of which that share forms part (the "Hurdle"). The participant's interest in each share was £8.76, which was the excess in value over the Hurdle price of £1.70.
For a detailed description of the JSOS scheme refer to pages 249 to 252 of the Company's Prospectus.
