Goals announces that, on 12 October 2017, it granted an award over its ordinary shares of 0.25p each ("Shares") to the Executive Director detailed below under the terms of its 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") that was originally approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 5 May 2016:
Name | Role | No. of Shares over which Award granted on 12 October 2017 |
Bill Gow | CFO | 350,000 |
No consideration was paid for the grant of the Award, which has been structured as a "nominal cost" option (i.e. meaning that, on any exercise, the individual will be required to pay a price of 0.25p for each Share).
The vesting of the Award is subject to the satisfaction of a performance condition that has been set by the Remuneration Committee of the Company. This condition relates to the Company's share price performance over a specified period of three years. Vesting will also normally be dependent on the continued employment of the participant within the Company's group.
