For Immediate Release
9 March 2017
LGO ENERGY PLC
("LGO" or the "Company")
Share Payments to Directors
and TVR
LGO today confirms that following the General Meeting held on 7
March 2017 which approved a share consolidation and authorities to
allot new ordinary shares, and as indicated in the Company's
announcement on 21 December 2016 ("the December Announcement") the
Board have now approved the payment of accrued, but unpaid,
directors' fees from 2015 and 2016 to several Directors in the form
of new ordinary shares.
A gross cost of GBP397,000 had been accrued in the Company's
books for these unpaid directors' fees since September 2015 and the
amounts due net of tax and national insurance have now been paid by
the allotment of 7,181,147 new ordinary shares of 0.05p each at 3p
per new ordinary share (the "Director Shares"), a 22% premium to
yesterday's closing price on AIM.
As a result the following Director Shares have been allotted and
issued to Directors and their holdings in the Company are:
Director Ordinary Holding New total % TVR
Shares prior holding
allotted to allotment
------------------------ ---------- -------------- ---------- ------
Neil Ritson 4,215,998 1,250,000 5,465,998 1.28%
------------------------ ---------- -------------- ---------- ------
Fergus Jenkins 1,218,793 0 1,218,793 0.29%
------------------------ ---------- -------------- ---------- ------
James Thadchanamoorthy 973,439 750,000 1,723,439 0.40%
------------------------ ---------- -------------- ---------- ------
Michael Douglas 772,917 400,000 1,172,917 0.28%
------------------------ ---------- -------------- ---------- ------
Total 7,181,147
------------------------ ----------
The terms of the allotments including the amount of accrued
directors' fees and the issue price are in accordance with those
set out in the December Announcement. However the 7,181,147 new
ordinary shares being allotted is equivalent to 143,622,940
ordinary shares prior to the recent consolidation compared to the
original estimation of 120 million shares indicated in the December
Announcement. This difference is due to actualisation of the
payable taxes to HMRC.
These arrangements with the Directors, were treated as a Related
Party Transaction under the AIM Rules, in the December
Announcement. However given the change in the number of new
ordinary shares being allotted (for the reasons given above) Mr
Gordon Stein, an independent director and member of the
Remuneration Committee, who joined the Board in January 2017 and
who is not participating in the fee conversion, having consulted
with the Company's Nominated Advisor, Beaumont Cornish Limited,
considers the terms of the transaction to be fair and reasonable so
far as shareholders in the Company are concerned.
Application is being made for the Director Shares, which will
rank pari passu with all existing ordinary shares to be admitted to
trading on AIM ("Admission"). Admission is expected on or around 15
March 2017.
Following Admission, the Company will have a total of
425,561,128 Ordinary Shares of 0.05p each.
The above figure of 425,561,128 Ordinary Shares with voting
rights may be used by shareholders in the Company 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 Financial
Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
