Exercise of options and additional purchase of shares by Director
SigmaRoc, a leading European lime and minerals group, announces that on 14 May
2025 it received notification from Tim Hall, Non-Executive Director, that he
has exercised 750,000 options under the Company's 2016 Share Option Plan, (the
"Options"), at an exercise price of 46 pence per share.
All options were exercised on a cashless basis and the tax liabilities
deducted, with the net balance of 226,834 Ordinary Shares from the exercise
being transferred to Mr Hall from the SigmaRoc Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT").
In addition, Mr Hall also today purchased 80,884 Ordinary shares of 1 pence
each at a price of 103.25 pence per share.
Following the options exercise and share purchase, Mr Hall's total interest in
the Company is 750,000 Ordinary Shares, representing 0.067% of the total
issued share capital of the Company.
Total Voting Rights
The Option exercise has been satisfied through the allocation of existing
ordinary shares held by the SigmaRoc EBT and, as such, no new ordinary shares
have been issued in connection with the Option exercise. Therefore, the
total number of ordinary shares with voting rights in the Company following
admission will remain 1,114,854,530. This figure may be used by shareholders
as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they
are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the
Group under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and
Transparency Rules.
