The Board of Xtract announces that on 25 March 2026, the Company awarded 35,600,000 new options (representing 2.99 per cent. of the current issued share capital) to Directors and a further 44,100,000 new options (representing 3.71 per cent. of the current issued share capital) to employees, consultants and other officers of the Company.
The new options vest in three (3) tranches: (i) One-third vests immediately on award; (ii) one-third vests upon the commencement of production at the Silverking Mine; and (iii) one-third vests on 1 November 2026. The new options have an exercise price of 1.40p per new Ordinary Share. The new options will lapse five years after the date of the award, being 25 March 2031. The exercise price represents a 55 per cent. premium to the mid-market closing price of 0.90p per Ordinary Shares as at 24 March 2025, and a 40 per cent. premium to the 30-day volume weighted average share price 1.00p for the 30 trading days ended 24 March 2026. Further details of the new options awards are as follows:
| Individual | Number of new options |

| Kjeld Thygesen | 300,000 |

In making the new option awards, the Board considers that the management remuneration and incentives align with long-term shareholder value creation and provide commercial protections for the Company and its shareholders as a whole. In particular, the new option exercise price is set a significant premium to the current share price and vest over time and subject to the conditions described above, aligning the interests of the option holders with shareholders.
