Change of business contact details
Northern Cobalt Ltd (Company) advises the following information regarding a number of administrative matters affecting the Company.
Issue of shares
The Company has issued 192,500 fully paid ordinary shares at 20 cents each in satisfaction of an invoice for contract services.
An Appendix 3B seeking quotation of these shares follows this announcement.
Issue of unlisted options
The board would like to thank Mr Jarek Kopias, Company Secretary and CFO, for his valuable contribution in supporting the recent listing on ASX. Consequently, the board has agreed to issue Mr Kopias (or nominee) 450,000 unlisted options with an exercise price of 25 cents and expiry of 21 March 2021 under the Company’s share option plan.
No options have been issued to Mr Kopias to date and consequently the board is seeking to align his remuneration with that of board members – options issued are on the same terms as those currently on issue to all directors.
The board will not be seeking shareholder approval for any further issues of securities at the upcoming AGM given the proximity of the IPO with appropriate incentives already established.
An Appendix 3B reflecting this issue follows this announcement.
