ANNOUNCEMENT 13 DECEMBER 2016
GRANT OF PERFORMANCE RIGHTS TO EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS
Coal of Africa Limited ("CoAL" or the "Company") confirms the
following awards to executive directors following the shareholder
approval received at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders
("AGM") on 25 November 2016.
Following the approval of shareholders David Brown, Chief
Executive Officer and De Wet Schutte, Chief Financial Officer, will
be granted a total of 11,254,933 Performance Rights and 7,983,715
Performance Rights respectively under the Company's Performance
Rights Plan, being direct beneficial in nature. The performance
rights were granted off-market.
As detailed in the notice of meeting for the AGM, the annual
Performance Rights issued have been determined by dividing the
resultant remuneration factor of ZAR 5,032,912 and ZAR 2,835,000
(for Mr Brown and Mr Schutte respectively) by the volume weighted
average price of the Shares of the Company over the 5 trading days
prior to the date of grant of the Performance Rights to determine
the annual allocation. The value of the forfeited options were
calculated by using a Black Scholes model and the resultant value
as determined by BDO was then similarly divided by the volume
weighted average price of the Shares of the Company over the 5
trading days prior to the date of grant. This amounted to a further
value of ZAR 1,441,725 and ZAR 1,757,800 (for Mr Brown and Mr
Schutte respectively).
The Performance Rights are granted as conditional awards over
ordinary shares of no par value for no consideration. The awards
will ordinarily vest three years after the grant date subject to
the vesting conditions.
Current Shares and Performance Rights Held by Executive
Directors:
In addition to the above Performance Rights Mr Brown holds
825,000 ordinary shares in the Company which represents 0.04% of
the Company's issued share capital. He also holds 9,714,021
Performance Rights issued in 2015 which will vest on 1 December
2018 subject to the vesting conditions. Mr Brown no longer holds
any share options in the company.
Mr Schutte does not currently hold any shares or share options
in the Company. In addition to the above Performance Rights, Mr
Schutte holds 5,449,944 Performance Rights issued in 2015 which
will vest on 1 December 2018 subject to the vesting conditions.
