The Board has approved the issue of 480,000 Options pursuant to the Option Scheme and 500,000 ordinary shares pursuant to the terms of the Equity Ownership Plan ("Shares") to Greg Smith (who assumed the role of CEO on 26 July 2021). In accordance with section 80(1)(b) of the Companies Act 1993, Bremworth discloses:

  • financial assistance will be provided in respect of the purchase of the Shares;
  • the consideration for the issue of the Shares shall be $0.4161 per share, being the volume weighted average share price on the NZX for the last 20 trading days prior to 23 June 2021 (when Greg Smith’s appointment as CEO was announced); and
  • the Shares will be funded by way of a loan by Bremworth to Greg Smith totalling $208,050.00.
