Medgenics, Inc.
("Medgenics" or the "Company")
Exercise of Options by a Director
30 December 2010
Medgenics, Inc. (AIM: MEDG, MEDU), the company that has
developed a novel technology for the manufacture and delivery of
therapeutic proteins continuously in patients using their own
tissue, announces that on 24 December 2010, it received an executed
option exercise notice from Dr. Eugene Bauer, Executive Chairman of
Medgenics, in respect of options to purchase 3,199,097 common
shares of par value $0.0001 each in the Company ("Common Shares")
using the cashless exercise mechanism.
The fair market value of the Common Shares utilized to calculate
the number of Common Shares issued under such mechanism was the
average of the MEDU.LN closing price for the ten trading days prior
to the commitment to exercise, which equates to 12.1 pence per
share or, based on current exchange rates, $0.188. Using this
cashless exercise method, Dr. Bauer will be allotted 1,990,081
Common Shares.
In addition, on 24 December 2010, Medgenics received an executed
warrant exercise notice from Baruch Stern and Phyllis Bellin, both
senior members of the Medgenics management team. Baruch Stern
exercised warrants over 400,021 Common Shares at an exercise price
of US $0.00047 per Common Share, for total proceeds of $187.
Phyllis Bellin exercised warrants over 600,031 Common Shares using
the cashless exercise mechanism. The cashless exercise, based on
the same conversion price as for Dr. Bauer will result in Ms.
Bellin being allotted 373,625 Common Shares.
Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the
2,763,727 new Common Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM.
Dealings are expected to commence at 8:00 a.m. on 6 January
2011.
Following the admission to trading of the new Common Shares, the
Company's total issued share capital will be 185,349,804 Common
Shares and the percentage of Common Shares not in public hands will
be 26.0%.
Following the above exercise, Dr. Bauer will be interested in
6,664,640 Common Shares representing 3.6 per cent of the issued
share capital and options over 3,881,434 Common Shares (in
aggregate interests in 10,546 074 Common Shares representing 5.7
per cent. of the issued share capital).
Following the above transactions, the interests of the directors
of the Company and their related parties in the Common Shares will
be as follows:
