Director Loan & PDMR Share Sale
Mast Energy Developments PLC, the UK-based multi-asset owner, developer and
operator in the rapidly growing flexible power market, is pleased to announce
that Paulus Fillippus Venter, a non-executive director and significant
shareholder of the Company, has provided MED with a director loan amounting to
£81,329 (the 'Director Loan'). The proceeds of the Director Loan will be used
for MED's working capital requirements. In order to fund the Director Loan,
Mr. Venter has sold 14,000,000 MED shares (the 'Loan Shares') of his total
beneficial holdings of 17,708,538 MED shares. The key terms of the Director
Loan are as follows:
· No fixed term of repayment, with a repayment longstop date of 12
months (from the date of the Director Loan) (the 'Longstop Date');
· Interest shall accrue and be paid on the principal amount of the
Director Loan outstanding at 7% per annum; and
· The repayment will be by the issuance of the same number of Loan
Shares (as Mr. Venter has lost equity number, not equity value, by the
Director Loan), subject to the Company complying with its statutory
obligations and shareholder authorities (incl. headroom).
As Mr. Venter is a Person Discharging Managerial Responsibility ('PDMR') under
the Company's Share Dealing Policy Code, he has obtained consent from the
Company for the sale of the Loan Shares, which was completed on 13 December
2023. Mr Venter has also notified the Financial Conduct Authority ('FCA') in
the prescribed manner by submitting the details shown on the Dealing
Notification Form below.
The Director Loan is a related party transaction under DTR 7.3.3R and the
Company has complied with its obligations under DTR 7.3.4R and DTR 7.3.14G.
Following this transaction, Mr. Venter and his related parties will have a
beneficial interest of 1.41% in the Company's issued share capital.
Pieter Krügel, CEO of MED, commented: "We are very pleased that Mr. Venter
was willing and able to provide MED with a director loan, which shows his
ongoing commitment to and support of the business. This loan will ensure that
MED's short-term working capital requirements are met while we wait for the JV
investment to be completed, as per our recent announcements."
