Upland Resources Limited (LSE: UPL) is pleased to announce (further to the
publication of the Prospectus approved by the Financial Conduct Authority on
23 February 2023) the following details concerning the subscription ("the
Management Subscription") by certain directors and managers for new ordinary
shares ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of 0.6p per new ordinary share.
Director or PDMR Number of New Ordinary Shares subscribed for Value of New Ordinary Shares subscribed for Number of Ordinary Shares held on Admission % Share Capital held on Admission Number of Warrants held on Admission
Bolhassan Di 4,166,667 £25,000 20,801,287 1.89% 2,083,333
Gerard Murray 1,250,000 £7,500 1,350,000 0.12% 625,000
John Forrest 1,250,000 £7,500 1,750,000 0.16% 625,000
Prof. A Hurst 833,333 £5,000 833,333 0.08% 416,667
TOTAL 7,500,000 45,000 24,734,620 2.25% 3,750,000
As part of the Management Subscription the Company will also issue warrants on
the same terms as the fundraise notification ("the Fundraise") announced on 20
February 2023 this being issue of one warrant over an Ordinary Share for every
two Ordinary Shares issued in the Management Subscription. These warrants
will be exercisable at a price of 1.20p ("Warrant Price") for a period of two
years from grant. Ordinary Shares and warrants issued in respect of the
Management Subscription will be issued alongside shares and warrants from the
Fundraise which raised gross proceeds of £1,698,000 (comprising 83,333,333
placing shares, 199,666,667 subscription shares and 141,500,000 warrants). The
Company will therefore issue a total of 290,500,000 shares ("Admission
Shares") and 150,250,000 warrants on Admission.
As referenced in the Company's recent prospectus, the Company has created a
10% share option incentive plan over the Company's issued share capital on
Admission and granted options over 110,000,000 ordinary shares to certain
Directors and senior managers of the Company as detailed below. These share
options do not vest until the share price has reached 2p.
