LONDON (Alliance News) - Red24 PLC Wednesday said it has issued 500,000 new shares in the company after Chief Executive Maldwyn Worsley-Tonks exercised share options.
Red24 said the shares were exercised at a price of 8.0 pence each.
Red24 shares were trading down 1.2% to 19.51 pence per share on Wednesday afternoon.
The crisis assistance company said Worsley-Tonks subsequently sold the 500,000 shares to Sidebell Ltd, a company in which Simon Richards, the chairman of the company is a director and shareholder.
