Quartix Holdings PLC
("Quartix," the "Company" or the "Group'')
Exercise of Share Options, Director/PDMR Shareholdings and Total Voting Rights
Quartix Holdings PLC (AIM: QTX), a leading supplier of vehicle tracking systems, announces that it has issued and allotted a total of 35,946 new ordinary shares of 1 penny each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") following the exercise of options by certain employees under the Company's share scheme. Of the 35,946 new Ordinary Shares, 12,196 are pursuant to the exercise of options by Daniel Mendis, Chief Operating and Financial Officer of the Company.
Following the exercise of options, Mr Mendis is now interested in 16,931 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 0.04 per cent. of the Company's total issued share capital following Admission.
Admission and Total Voting Rights
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the 35,946 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that Admission will become effective and trading will commence as follows: at 8.00 a.m. on 30 March 2021 for 27,946 new Ordinary Shares and 8:00 a.m. on 1 April 2021 for 8,000 new Ordinary Shares.
After Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue will be 48,299,894 and the total number of voting rights will therefore be 48,299,894. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
Director/PDMR Dealings
The Remuneration Committee has separately agreed on a cash settlement of 112,443 vested unapproved options held by Mr Mendis, with such vested options being cancelled at the time of the cash settlement. It is intended that the gross amount of £97,825 be partially used in exercising more of Mr Mendis' options under the Company's Enterprise Management Incentive (EMI) scheme and a further announcement shall be made on this in due course.
The Company has also been notified that on 24 March 2021, Peter Brown, a PDMR of the Company, sold 15,000 ordinary shares of 1 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of 540 pence per Ordinary Share. As a result, Mr Brown is now interested in 201,434 Ordinary Shares of the Company, representing approximately 0.42 per cent. of the Company's total issued share capital.
