Company Announcement No. 24-2023
Grant of warrants
In order to implement a retention and incentive program, the board of directors of MapsPeople today exercised part of its authorization in section 4.16 of MapsPeople’s articles of association to issue a total of 2,210,000 warrants. The warrants were issued to Morten Brøgger and four key employees.
The exercise price is fixed at DKK 2.80 per share corresponding to the latest offering of new shares with pre-emptive rights as informed in Company Announcement No. 20-2023
1,360,000 of the warrants will vest over 48 months, with a one year cliff starting September 4, 2023. Hereafter the warrants will vest over 36 months with 1/36 per months.
These warrants can be exercised in exercise windows of 14 days starting the day after the publication of the MapsPeople's annual report, half-year report or quarterly report. Warrants that have not been exercised September 4, 2029 at the latest, will lapse automatically.
850,000 of the warrants will vest March 1, 2024.
These warrants can be exercised in exercise windows of 14 days starting the day after the publication of the MapsPeople's annual report, half-year report or quarterly report. Warrants that have not been exercised September 4, 2029 at the latest, will lapse automatically.
The warrants include conditions on accelerated vesting in case of liquidation, dissolvement in connection with a merger, or delisting.
The specific terms of the warrants can be found in MapsPeople’s articles of association available on: https://www.mapspeople.com/investors.
The theoretical market value of the warrants granted is DKK 1.60 per warrant (calculated using the Black Scholes Model). The key assumptions for the calculation are a share price of DKK 2.26, an exercise price of DKK 2.80, volatility of 97%, and a risk-free interest rate of 3,35%.
