Jadestone Energy Announces Grants Under Long Term Incentive Plans
April 29, 2020 - Singapore: Jadestone Energy Inc. (AIM:JSE) ("Jadestone" or the "Company"), an independent oil and gas production company focused on the Asia Pacific region, is pleased to announce that on April 27, 2020 it granted (a) an aggregate of 6,525,000 incentive stock options to a number of employees, officers, directors, and consultants, including an individual engaged in investor relations activities on behalf of the Company, (b) an aggregate of 695,200 performance share awards to a number of its employees and (c) 101,063 restricted share awards to the Company's President and CEO, A. Paul Blakeley.
The stock options are exercisable for a period of ten years at an exercise price of GBP 0.44 per share, and will vest upon the third anniversary of the grant date. The market value of the performance shares to be issued upon the vesting of the performance share awards is approximately GBP 0.56 per share, as calculated by an independent, specialist service provider. The performance share awards will vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, and the number of performance shares to be issued will be determined against two performance measures which will be applied annually: (i) absolute total shareholder return as measured on a target share price plus dividend, weighted at 30%, and (ii) relative total shareholder return as measured against agreed peer companies, weighted at 70%.
The market value of the restricted shares to be issued upon the vesting of the restricted share awards is approximately GBP 0.40 per share as calculated by an independent, specialist service provider, and the restricted share award will vest on the third anniversary of the grant date. The restricted share award was elected to be taken by the recipient in lieu of a salary increase to further the alignment of interests with shareholders.
The stock options, the performance share awards and the restricted share awards were granted in accordance with the terms of the Company's stock option plan, performance share plan and restricted share plan respectively, each of which have been approved by the Company's shareholders. As the Company transitions away from its historical North American model to a remuneration approach more aligned with current practice in the UK, this will be the last grant of stock options for which the non executive directors will be recipients.
Certain persons discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMR") were recipients of stock options as detailed below.
