Grant of Share Options under the Sharesave scheme

 

Ceres Power Holdings plc (the "Company"), a global leader in fuel cell and electrochemical technology, announces the grant of options on 26 April 2022 under the Ceres Power Sharesave Scheme (the "Scheme"). The Scheme is an 'all employee share scheme' which is available annually to all employees subject to qualifying conditions, which was approved by the HM Revenue & Customs, and which was introduced to encourage wider employee share ownership of the Company.

 

Options to purchase a total of 393,530 ordinary shares of 10 pence of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") have been granted. These options will be exercisable between 1 June 2025 and 30 November 2025 at an exercise price of 596p per share.

Total Voting Rights

 

As at 26 April 2022, the Company's issued share comprised 190,890,745 Ordinary Shares, with one voting right per share. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. The total number of Ordinary Shares and voting rights in the Company is therefore 190,890,745.
