("GCM" or the "Company")

 

Warrants Exercised

 

Share issue - Consultants & Director

 

Director/PDMR Shareholding

 

 

GCM Resources plc (LON: GCM), an AIM quoted mining and energy company, reports an exercise of warrants.

 

Warrant Exercise

The Company has received a notice to exercise warrants over 606,060 new ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the Company ("Warrant Shares") at an exercise price of 1.65 p per Warrant Share, raising £10,000 for the Company.

 

Consultant's Shares

The Company also announces the issuance of new ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") as payment of consulting fees in accordance with the consultancy agreement announced on 22 August 2022, with DG Infratech Pte Ltd ("DG") (the "DG Agreement") (together, the "Agreement").

 

The Agreement provides that new Ordinary Shares would be awarded to DG, and thus the following monthly consulting fee will be settled via the issuance of new Ordinary Shares:

·      in lieu of DG's retainer fee for the period from 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023 of £180,000, the Company will issue 4,363,636 new Ordinary Shares to DG.

 

GCM confirms that following the issue of new Ordinary Shares, DG will be interested in 4.165% of the Company's enlarged issued ordinary share capital.

 

Under the terms of the DG Agreement, there are no restrictions on disposal of the shares issued in respect of the retainer fees issued to DG, which are intended to cover the respective consultants' costs in performing their services. 

 

Director Shares

GCM also announces the issue of a total of 377,359 new ordinary shares of £0.01 each in the Company ("New Ordinary Shares") to Keith Fulton, for payment of his services as Executive Director of the Company for the period 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023 of £10,000, as part of his director remuneration agreement from June 2019.

 

On Admission, Keith Fulton will have an interest in 1,400,702 Shares, representing approximately 0.57 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company, as enlarged by the Fee Shares. The FCA notification, made in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation, is appended below.

 

 

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for, in aggregate, 5,347,055 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will become effective on 11 March 2024.  Following Admission, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will comprise 243,171,131 Ordinary Shares with voting rights in the Company. As the Company holds no shares in treasury, this is the total number of the voting rights in the Company which may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest, or a change in the interest, in the share capital of the Company under Chapter 5 of the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules as reflected in the Company's articles of incorporation.

 

 

 

This announcement contains inside information as defined in Article 7 of the EU Market Abuse Regulation No 596/2014 and has been announced in accordance with the Company's obligations under Article 17 of that Regulation.
