Augean, one of the UK's leading specialist waste management businesses, announces that three employees took the opportunity to exercise their share options (the "Options") of 10 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), awarded to them on 28th April 2017 under the Company's 2014 LTIP Scheme.
Mark Fryer, the Group Finance Director and a PDMR, executed Options over 203,098 Ordinary Shares and will retain 100,220 Ordinary Shares following the payments of taxes and fees. John Rauch, the Group Operating Officer and a PDMR, executed Options over 181,252 Ordinary Shares and will retain 89,512 Ordinary Shares following the payment of taxes and fees.
It is noted that the total Ordinary Shares sold by each PDMR was done so with the sole aim of satisfying the exercise price of 10p and the resulting tax liability.
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for 420,544 Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that Admission will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 26th May 2020.
Following Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue will be 104,505,742 and the total number of voting rights will therefore be 104,505,742. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
