Issue of Salary Sacrifice Shares - Directors Holdings
Jersey, Channel Islands, 7 October 2020 - Serinus Energy plc ("Serinus", "SEN" or the "Company") (AIM:SENX, WSE:SEN) announces that further to the Executive Salary Reductions news releases of 27 April 2020 and 2 July 2020, the Company has issued 512,083 ordinary shares ("Salary Sacrifice Shares") to the Executive Directors under the salary sacrifice scheme for the period from 30 June 2020 to 30 September 2020, the details of which are set out in the table below. The reduction in salaries and fees was introduced due to the economic environment created by the impact of COVID-19 and compounded by low commodity prices. The Salary Sacrifice Shares were issued at a price of 5.858 pence which has been determined by dividing the gross amount of salary deducted by the volume weighted average of the middle market quotations for one Ordinary Share for the 90 days ending on 30 September 2020.
The details are as follow:
Director | Number of Salary Sacrifice Shares | Total number of ordinary shares now held in the Company | Percentage interest in the Company's Ordinary Shares |
Jeffrey Auld | 298,715 | 557,166 | 0.232% |
Andrew Fairclough | 213,368 | 382,121 | 0.159% |
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the Salary Sacrifice Shares, which will rank pari passu with the Company's existing ordinary shares, to be admitted to trading on AIM. Dealings are expected to commence at 8.00 a.m. on 9 October 2020.
Following the issue of the New Ordinary Shares, the Company will have 239,798,375 ordinary shares in issue with no shares held in treasury. This is the total number of voting rights in the Company and may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change to their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
