Β 

26 June 2017

Β 

Seeing Machines (AIM:SEE), an industry leader in computer vision based human sensing technologies which enable breakthrough solutions in performance, safety and user experiences, advises that further to the announcement on 9 May 2017, the Remuneration Committee has granted incentive equity rights to recently appointed CEO Mike McAuliffe (the "Grant Date") under its CEO Long Term Incentive Equity Program.

Β 

Subject to his continued employment with the Seeing Machines group, Mr McAuliffe has been granted rights to acquire 37,161,379 ordinary shares of no par value in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), totaling 2.5% of the Company's current issued share capital. Two thirds of the rights (representing 24,786,640 Ordinary Shares) have been granted as options over Ordinary Shares ("Options") and one third (12,374,739 Ordinary Shares) have been granted as performance rights (the "Performance Rights"). Both the Options and Performance Rights will vest monthly over 48 months, with the first vesting date being 29 August 2016, the date Mr McAuliffe began employment with the Group.

Β 

The Performance Rights entitle Mr McAuliffe to be automatically issued 257,807 Ordinary Shares for no exercise price, on a monthly basis. The Options vest in equal tranches (being 516,388 Options) on a monthly basis and can be exercised at Mr McAuliffe's discretion over a ten year period at an exercise price of 3.89 pence, which is the average market price of the Company's shares over the 5 trading days before the Grant Date and they shall expire on the tenth anniversary of the first vesting date of 29 June 2017. The schedule of Options and Performance rights are set out in a table below.

Β

Β
