50,000 Ordinary Shares Exercised at 5p by Former Newmark Security Employee

Newmark Security has received formal notice that a former employee has exercised share options over 50,000 ordinary shares of 5p each. The options were granted on 20 June 2022 and carry an exercise price of 5p per ordinary share. This type of exercise is routine for AIM-listed companies operating employee share incentive schemes, though it results in a modest increase to the company's total issued share capital. The new ordinary shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares, meaning holders of the new shares carry the same rights as existing shareholders.
