("Haydale", "la Société" ou le "Groupe")
Grant of share Options, Surrender of Existing Options and PDMR dealings
Attribution de nouvelles options
Haydale (AIM : HAYD), le groupe mondial de matériaux de pointe, annonce que le 25 Janvier 2024 the Company approved the grant of options under the 2020 EMI Scheme as amended to accommodate the terms of the New Options ("2020 IEM Schème"), to certain directors of the Company ("Administration"), certains administrateurs de filiales de la Société ("Directeurs de filiales") and UK based staff of the Group, over an aggregate 151,500,000 ordinary shares of 0.1p ("Nouvelles options") each in the capital of the Company ("Actions ordinaires"), representing 8.4 pour cent. du capital social émis de la Société.
Background to the New Options grants
The Company adopted the 2020 EMI Scheme to enable it to retain and incentivise staff and to reward them for the achievement of its longer-term objectives. The options granted under the 2020 EMI Scheme have certain performance and / or length of tenure criteria as set out below. The New Options replace 55,650,000 current options held by existing option holders and extend options to include those who have more recently joined the Group.
Terms of the New Options
All of the New Options have an exercise price of 0.5 pence per Ordinary Share (being a 2.0% de prime par rapport au cours moyen de clôture des Actions Ordinaires de la Société le 25 January 2024, the day of the approval of the New Options grant). The proportion of the total New Option award to each individual is capable of vesting dependent on certain share price performance and / or length of tenure criteria (approved by the Remuneration Committee) as follows:
% of New Options subject to the Performance Condition |
État des performances |
50% | Vests and is exercisable in three equal tranches from the first, second and third anniversary of the date of Grant provided the Participant has remained in continuous employment (and has not served notice of resignation) with the Company and/or its Group. No other performance conditions. |
15.0% | For a period of 15 consecutive dealing days, commencing after the date of Grant and ending on or before the 31 December 2025, the closing price of the Ordinary Shares exceeds 1.0p (one pence) per Ordinary Share. |
15.0% | For a period of 15 consecutive dealing days, commencing after the date of Grant and ending on or before the 31 December 2026, the closing price of the Ordinary Shares exceeds 2.0p (two pence) per Ordinary Share. |
20.0% | For a period of 15 consecutive dealing days, commencing after the date of Grant and ending on or before the 31 December 2027, the closing price of the Ordinary Shares exceeds 3.0p (three pence) per Ordinary Share. |
All share options with a share price based performance condition can only be exercised on or after the third anniversary of grant. If the share price does not reach the target price by their respective dates, that portion of the award will lapse.
In respect of the New Option awards with no share price based performance conditions granted to each of Keith Broadbent (CEO) and Patrick Carter (CFO), these are subject to the further requirement that any resulting shares must be held for a minimum of 2 years from the date of option grant.
There are no other vesting criteria for the New Options.
Surrender of existing options
In January 2020, January 2022, November 2022 and April 2023, the Company granted options to acquire shares in the capital of the Company to certain employees and directors of the Company pursuant to the Scheme. It is a condition of the grant of New Options that the remaining rights to the 2020, 2022 and 2023 Options are surrendered for no consideration (the "Option Surrender").
The Options previously granted in 2020, January 2022, November 2022 and 2023 were priced at 2.25p, 6.25p, 2.25p and 2.25p, respectively. The board believe it is appropriate to issue new share options in replacement of the existing ones to reflect the Company's current share price to properly incentivise its employees, including its management.
