Issuance of Share Options to Directors and Employees

 

Anglesey Mining plc (AIM:AYM), the UK minerals development company, announces that the Board has approved the issuance of options to directors and employees of the Company.

The Company’s policy on director and executive compensation is to provide compensation to directors and management to ensure directors and senior management are appropriately compensated, motivated and retained. It is considered important that the contribution of directors be recognised and that directors be incentivised to help move the Company forward.

 

Today's award of share options (the “Options”) to the directors and employees will have an exercise price of 1.2 pence, representing a premium of approx. 41% to the closing share price of 0.85p on 8 May. A total of 12,100,000 Options have been granted to directors and employees. The Options are exercisable upon grant and will lapse on 30 September 2032. The Options have been issued under the Company's existing Share Option Scheme.
