IGas Energy plc (the "Company" or the "Group")
Grant of awards under the IGas Energy plc Executive Incentive
Plan
IGas announces that it has issued options under a long term
incentive plan to certain Directors, Persons Discharging Managerial
Responsibilities ("PDMRs") and other key employees of the Group
which will vest, subject to meeting certain criteria, up to three
years from grant.
The Board recognises the need to have a strong retention and
motivational share plan in place for key members of staff to
deliver against our business plan. The award, the first since the
capital restructuring of the Company, aligns interests to those of
shareholders over the medium term. The awards will only vest if
certain share price appreciation targets, based off the capital
restructuring price (equating to 90p following the share
consolidation), are achieved.
As a result, the Company announces the following grant to the
following Directors and PDMRs, equating to 100% of each Director
and PDMR's salary, of nil cost options over ordinary shares of the
Company of nominal value 0.002 pence per share on 16 October 2017
under the Company's Executive Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which
was adopted by the Board on 16 March 2016:
Name of Director/PDMR Position Number of ordinary shares subject to base award
Chief Executive
Stephen Bowler Officer 388,889
Chief Operating
John Blaymires Officer 311,111
Chief Finance
Julian Tedder Officer 283,333
The options granted under the Plan will take the form of a base
award over the number of ordinary shares specified above.
The number of ordinary shares over which the options vest will
depend upon the share price performance of the Company over the
vesting period.
The options will vest according to the following criteria:
