("Fonix" or the "Company")
Exercise of Options and Total Voting Rights
The Company announces that it received notice of exercise ("Exercise") in relation to employee share options over 45,554 ordinary shares of 0.1p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") issued under the Company's Share Option Plan.
Accordingly, the Company has transferred 45,554 shares previously held in Treasury to satisfy the Exercise. As a result, the Company's issued share capital now consists of 100,000,000 Ordinary Shares, 2,330,781 of which remain held in Treasury. For reporting under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, shareholders should exclude any Ordinary Shares held in Treasury and should use the figure of 97,669,219 Ordinary Shares (the total voting share capital) when determining if they are required to notify their interest, or a change of their interest in the Company.
Following this Exercise, there remain 2,025,462 outstanding share options under the Company’s Share Option Plan. This excludes 487,468 Parallel EMI Options held on a linked-lapse basis alongside existing NTA Options, which do not represent additional potential dilution.
