The new exercise price of the options represents an approximate 44% premium to the closing price of 0.52p on Tuesday 15 December 2008, a 36% premium to the 0.55p placement price completed in October and an approximate 37% premium to the 1-month VWAP for Herencia.
The total number of unlisted options currently in issue is 27,400,000 which represents 3.08% of the issued share capital in the Company on a fully diluted basis.
Commenting on the variation, Chairman, John Moore said "No additional options have been issued to Directors. The variation to the options is to incentivise management and directors whilst maintaining the exercise price at a premium to the current market price of the Company's shares".
In addition to the above options, Michael Bohm has a direct and indirect interest in 6,301,515 Ordinary Shares in the Company, representing 0.73% of the total issued share capital in the Company.
