TMT INVESTMENTS PLC
("TMT" or the "Company")
Cash-for-shares swap by senior management
TMT announces that three senior executives have signed agreements with the Company to receive all of their 2013 salaries in TMT shares on 31 December 2013 rather than monthly in cash. The number of shares receivable in each case is fixed at a price of US$1.6 per share, which compares with the latest middle marker quotation for TMT shares of US$1.6 per share. The agreements are binding on the executives concerned regardless of TMT's future share price.
The executives concerned, who all receive salaries of US$100,000 per annum and will thus receive 62,500 TMT shares each, representing 0.25% of TMT's existing share capital, are:
·; Mr. Alexander Morgulchik and Mr. German Kaplun, who at present collectively own 16.7% of the issued share capital of TMT and are thus Related Parties for the purposes of the AIM Rules; and
·; Mr. Artyom Inyutin, who at present owns 5.28% of the issued share capital of TMT.
In accordance with the AIM Rules, the directors of the Company, all of whom are independent for the purposes of this transaction, having consulted with the Company's nominated adviser, ZAI Corporate Finance Limited, consider that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
Alexander Selegenev, Executive Director, said today "We welcome this agreement by senior executives to receive TMT shares rather than cash. It indicates confidence by senior management in our strategy and frees up resources for investment in our portfolio."
