Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary Shares, which will rank pari passu with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares, to be admitted to trading on AIM, and admission is expected to become effective on 14 July 2016.
Following admission, the Company will have 400,305,156 Ordinary Shares outstanding, including a further 1,000,000 restricted shares issued under the Company's equity incentive plan today. Subtracting the 342,334 Ordinary Shares held by the Company as non-voting treasury stock, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 399,962,822. The figure of 399,962,822 common shares may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change their interest in, the Company under the Financial Services Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
The New Ordinary Shares are restricted from trading until volume weighted average quoted price of the Ordinary Shares for a consecutive 30-day period equals or exceeds 100p.
In addition, the previously announced resolution to award options to Jeff Blouvac, the Company's CFO was implemented on July 1, 2016, resulting in the award of options with an exercise price of 23p, being the closing mid-market share price on 30 June 2016, and a duration of 10 years. The options will cliff vest on the third year anniversary date of their grant, but cannot be exercised until the stock closes above a thirty-day average closing price of 100p.
