Eco (Atlantic) Oil & Gas Ltd. (AIM: ECO, TSX ‐ V: EOG), the oil and gas exploration company focused on the offshore Atlantic Margins, announces the issuance of Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") and stock options to certain directors, officers and consultants of the Company.
The Company has issued 3,700,000 RSUs to certain Executive and Non-Executive Directors, pursuant to the Eco's Omnibus Incentive Plan as approved at its Annual and Special Meeting held on 27 December 2024 (the "Plan"). The RSUs will vest one year after the date of grant and convert into 3,700,000 common shares of the Company ("Common Shares").
In addition, the Company announces that it has granted, to certain directors, officers and consultants of the Company, stock options to subscribe for 5,610,000 Common Shares at an exercise price of $CAD0.30 (£0.17) per Common Share (the "Options"). The Options vest in two equal tranches on the date of grant, and first anniversary from the date of grant. The Options are exercisable, following vesting, at the recipient's discretion and expire five (5) years from the date of grant.
The Plan is an omnibus evergreen rolling plan which allows the Company to issue up to a maximum of 10% of the Company's issued share capital in stock options, performance share units, deferred share units, and restricted share units to directors, officers, employees, and consultants of the Company. The Plan is more fully described in the management information circular of the Company dated November 26, 2024 and is available on the Company's website and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Plan replaces the Company's previous stock option plan (the "Previous Stock Option Plan") and restricted share unit plan (the "Previous RSU Plan") (the "Previous Plans") approved by shareholders on December 29, 2023 ("2023 AGM"). At the 2023 AGM, shareholders approved amendments to the Previous Stock Option Plan to update the definition of volume weighted average price to comply with Policy 4.4 of the TSX Venture Exchange and provide for cashless exercise of stock options to certain eligible participants. Amendments to the Previous RSU Plan was approved at the 2023 AGM by amending the definitions of Affiliate, Associate, Disinterested Shareholder Approval, and Market Price; restricting the assignability of an RSU; limiting vesting to not prior to one year after its grant; and to add that RSU holders shall not have any rights as shareholders. The 2023 AGM also approved the number of common shares available for issuance under the RSU Plan by 12,923,735 to 25,000,000 Common Shares.
