Issue of Share Options under the Employee Share Option Plan
Gold Mountain Limited (“ GMN ” or “ Company ”) announced on 29 August 2016 of a grant of 18,900,000 share options (“ Options ”) to employees and consultants, and directors of the Company pursuant to the Company’s Employee Share Option Plan (“ ESOP ”).
At the extraordinary general meeting on 11 October 2016 (“ 2016 EGM ”), shareholders approved the issue of shares and options under the ESOP to employees including consultants and directors for a period of 3 years from date of the 2016 EGM.
The Company’s ESOP, first established in 2011, is for a number of purposes and continues to believe that ESOP is integral to the Company’s financial performance for a number of reasons, including:
-
a) retaining and incentivising its key personnel;
-
b) attracting and retaining valued employees essential for the continued growth and development of the Company;
-
c) establishing a sense of ownership in the Company for the employees;
-
d) promoting and fostering loyalty and support amongst the employees for the benefit of both the employees and the Company;
-
e) enhancing the relationship between the Company and its employees for the long term mutual benefit of the parties; and
-
f) enabling the Company to attract high calibre individuals who can bring expertise to the Company.
The granted Options under the ESOP are subject to the following vesting conditions.
1. The Company’s underlying share price must exceed $0.50 based on volume weighted average price (VWAP) over a 5 day consecutive period;
2. The exercise period of the Option shall not commence until a date that is at least 12 months after the date of grant of the Options (29 August 2016);
3. Subject to these vesting conditions, the Options have an exercise price of $0.30 and shall expire 36 months after the date of issue; and
4. The holder must be an actual consultant to or employee of the Company at the time of exercise of the relevant Options.
The Company advises that in accordance with ESOP and the approval of shareholders at the 2016 EGM, 18,400,000 Options have been issued today to the eligible employees (including consultants and directors).
A completed Appendix 3B in respect of the issue of options under the ESOP is attached.
