Warrants Update - Block Listing Application

 

The Directors of Sirius Minerals Plc (AIM: SXX, OTCQX: SRUXY) ("Sirius" or the "Company") provide notification that a block listing application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the admission to trading on AIM of up to 179,351,029 ordinary shares in the Company (the "Block Listing Shares").

As part of the finance raising by the Company on 6 March 2014, warrants were issued to participants in that raising. The Block Listing Shares are the total number of shares that would be issued pursuant to the exercise of all of those warrants issued. If all the warrants are exercised, the shares that would be issued would represent approximately 8.29% of the current issued share capital.

The application for the admission of the Block Listing Shares, being all of the shares that potentially could be issued pursuant to the exercise of warrants, has been made to AIM in advance for ease of administration as some warrants have now begun to be exercised. Block Listing Shares will be issued from time to time pursuant to the exercise of warrants by individual warrant holders during the relevant exercise period. The Company will update the total shares on issue on its website on a regular basis.

The Block Listing Shares will be issued credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing common shares of the Company. It is expected that the block admission will become effective on 2 June 2015 and that shares will be issued and admitted pursuant to the exercise of any warrants within 5 trading days following a valid exercise of the warrants.

Income from the warrant payments will be used to fund the ongoing development work for the York Potash Project.

Further information relating to the warrants, including in relation to how to exercise the warrants, can be found on the Company website: www.siriusminerals.com/investors/warrantsand background is available via the Company's 'Results of Placing' announcement which was made on 6 March 2014.
