On 11 April 2024, the Company awarded the fourth tranche of options under its Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") initially announced on 28 July 2023.

As referred to in TruFin's announcement on 28 July 2023, the Options are subject to the same performance metrics as the second and third tranches of the LTIP but have a vesting date of 31 December 2026. The Options will expire 10 years post grant date.

 

The Options granted to James van den Bergh (CEO) and James Hussey (CFO) are subject to performance criteria set by the Remuneration Committee of the Company based on a share price performance metric.
