("Primorus" or the "Company")
Grant of Share Options
Primorus (AIM: PRIM) announces the award of 12,000,000 share options ("Share Options"). Each Share Option is exercisable over one ordinary share of £0.002 in the capital of the Company (the "Ordinary Shares"). The Share Options represent approximately 8.58 per cent. of the current issued share capital of the Company. On a fully diluted basis, the Share Options represent approximately 7.9 per cent. of the enlarged issued share capital of the Company (assuming the Share Options are exercised in full and no additional Ordinary Shares are issued save for those in connection with such exercise).
The Share Options are exercisable at a price of £0.041 per Ordinary Share (being the mid-market closing price of the Ordinary Shares on 1 March 2021). One-third of the Share Options shall vest when the mid-market closing price of the Ordinary Shares ("Closing Price") reaches £0.06; one-third of the Share Options shall vest when the Closing Price reaches £0.08; and one-third of the Share Options shall vest when the Closing Price reaches £0.10. The Share Options are exercisable at any time, following vesting, prior to (and including) the day falling on the fifth anniversary of grant. If an option holder leaves the Company, such option holder shall retain any vested Share Options but any unvested Share Options shall lapse unless otherwise decided by the Board at its absolute discretion.
The total options granted over Ordinary Shares to Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities within the Company (each being a "PDMR") are detailed below.
