Cancellation of LTIP Options

RA International Group PLC (AIM: RAI), a specialist provider of complex and integrated remote site services to organisations globally, announces that it has commenced a process to cancel all outstanding share options previously awarded to employees under the Company's 2018 Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP").

On 8 November 2023, the Company executed agreements to cancel 2,698,061 outstanding share options previously awarded over various dates between October 2020 and June 2022 to 27 employees of the Company, including David Marshall who is considered to be a person discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMR"). The cancellation requires the consent of each employee, which the Company expects to receive. On the basis all cancellation agreements are signed, a position the Company will confirm in its next financial results, zero options will remain outstanding.  

The Company has no current plans to grant any further share options. The Remuneration Committee will look to put in place a more appropriate incentive scheme in the future.
