ADVANCED ONCOTHERAPY PLC
("Advanced Oncotherapy" or the "Company")
Grant of Options and 2018 SAYE Option Plan
Advanced Oncotherapy plc (AIM: AVO), the developer of next-generation proton therapy systems for cancer treatment, announces that its Remuneration Committee has approved the grant of share options (the "Options") over a total of 4,000,000 new ordinary shares of 25 pence each ("Ordinary Shares").
Of the Options, 545,000 have been granted to Dr Michael Sinclair (Executive Chairman), 1,400,000 to Nicolas Serandour (Chief Executive Officer), 215,000 to Professor Stephen Myers (Non-Executive Director of Advanced Oncotherapy and Executive Chairman of ADAM) and the remaining 1,840,000 to members of key management, including a PDMR.
The Options have been granted at an exercise price of 100 pence per share (implying a 141% premium over the closing share price on 20 February 2019). The options have a five-year term, expiring on 20 February 2024. This Option grant is consistent with the Remuneration Committee's policy to align the interests of key personnel and shareholders through appropriate incentive schemes, including the award of shares and share options. It follows recent achievements, including the recent ISO:13485 certification, the significant progress on the LIGHT system which generates a beam with an energy level capable of treating superficial tumours and the GBP10 million funding round announced on 21 December 2018.
Separately, pursuant to the Company's 2018 SAYE Option Plan and further to the announcement released on 21 December 2018, the Board has granted options over a total of 1,449,342 new Ordinary Shares (the "SAYE Options"). A total of 66 employees elected to participate in the 2018 SAYE Option Plan, including one employee who is classified as a PDMR.
The SAYE Options have been granted at a price of 40 pence per share which is equivalent to the price of the GBP10 million funding round announced in December 2018. The SAYE Options have a savings contract start date of 1 March 2019 and are exercisable between 1 March 2022 and 31 August 2022.
Following the grant of the Options and the SAYE Options, the Company has options outstanding over 10,616,011 new Ordinary Shares, which represents approximately 5.46 per cent. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital.
