Seascape Energy Asia plc
(the "Company", "Seascape Energy" or "Seascape")
Notification of Transaction by Person Discharging Managerial Responsibilities
("PDMR")
Long Term Incentive Plan Awards
As part of the annual bonus cycle for the performance year ending 31 December
2025, the Executive Directors have elected to receive a significant proportion
of their annual bonus in the form of nil cost options to acquire ordinary
shares of 10p each in the Company (the "LTIP Options") under the Company's
Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP"), to allow them to continue to build
their equity stake in the Company and ensure alignment with shareholders.
In addition, Seascape announces the grant of an award under the Company's NED
Plan (the "NED Plan") to Michael Buck, who has joined the Company's board of
directors today as an Independent non-executive Director.
Following the vesting of the Awards and including existing shareholdings, the
Directors will hold a total of 7.7% of the Company's issued share capital.
The LTIP
The LTIP, which is designed to provide incentivisation and retention for the
Company's personnel, was approved by shareholders at the 2020 AGM and the
principal terms are summarised in the Company's Re-admission document of 10
June 2021 (available on the Company's web site).
The Awards
The Company's Remuneration Committee, which is made up exclusively of
Non-Executive Directors, has made awards under the LTIP to the following PDMRs
(the "Awards") in the form of nil cost options to acquire ordinary shares of
10p each in the Company. The number of shares and percentage of the Company's
current issued share capital ("ISC"), is set out below:
PDMR Title No. of Option shares ISC%
Nick Ingrassia CEO 232,721 0.37
James Menzies Executive Chairman 164,991 0.26
Pierre Eliet Executive Director 166,578 0.26
Julian Riddick Company Secretary 51,982 0.08
The calculation of the Awards utilised an average market price of 64.7 pence
per share and subject to the rules of the Plan the Options will vest in 12
months from the date of grant and be exercisable for a period of up to five
years from grant.
The NED Plan Award
The NED Plan is designed to provide incentivisation and retention over a
three-year period (the "Performance Period"), vesting from 13 January 2027 to
13 January 2029. Following awards made to the other non-executive Directors
and in the interests of consistency, the Company's Board of Directors has made
an award under the NED Plan to Michael Buck in the form of market priced
options to acquire ordinary shares of 10p each in the Company (the "NED
Options").
The Board of Directors has used its discretion, as provided for under the NED
Plan rules, to make an exceptional award (100% - 200%) equivalent to 110% of
the annual fee payable for acting as a non-executive Director. The award has
been sized to ensure that no judgement or performance is compromised and the
number of shares and percentage of the Company's enlarged issued share capital
("ISC"), assuming full exercise of all the NED Options, is set out below:
PDMR Title No. of Options ISC%
Michael Buck Independent Non-executive Director 61,300 0.1
The NED Options have been set at price of 64.7 pence per share and subject to
the rules of the Plan, the NED Options will vest in three equal annual
tranches after grant and be exercisable for a period of up to five years from
grant.
Notification of Deal Forms of each PDMR can be found below. This announcement
is made in accordance with Article 19 of the EU Market Abuse Regulation
596/2014.
