("Xpediator" or "the Company" or "the Group")
Director/PDMR Shareholding
The board of Xpediator, (AIM: XPD), a leading provider of freight management services across the UK and Europe, announces that Andrea (Dana) Antohi, Chief Operating Officer of the Group's transport solutions division, Affinity Transport Solutions, has exercised options over a total of 729,167 ordinary shares, ("New Ordinary Shares") under the employee share option agreement, at a cost of the nominal value of the shares, being 5 pence per ordinary share.
Application has been made for the New Ordinary Shares, which will rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), to be admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will occur at 8:00a.m. on or around 20 September 2018.
Total Voting Rights
On Admission, the total issued share capital of the Company will comprise 133,628,653 Ordinary Shares. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 133,628,653 and this figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
