Ocean Harvest Technology Group plc

("OHT", the "Company", or the "Group")

Grant of Options

Ocean Harvest Technology Group Plc (AIM: OHT), a leading researcher, developer and supplier of proprietary blended seaweed products as functional additives for the global animal feed industry, announces the grant of options to two of its executives under the Company's Share Option Plan.

Chris Scott (Chief Financial Officer) and Nico Stein (Chief Commercial Officer) have each been granted 1,385,857 options (the "Options").  This corresponds to the amount of options which have either been forfeited since the IPO or are due to be forfeited in 2024 by employees leaving OHT. There is hence no dilution from the grant of these new options over and above the dilution potential that was present from employee options at the time of the Company's IPO.

The Options have a term of 10 years and are exercisable in four tranches at a price of £0.01 each, with each tranche vesting once the share price target for that tranche has been met and a minimum 2 years' service has been completed.

All options are subject to a 12-month holding period from the date of vesting and may not be exercised whilst the Company's share price is below £0.192 and are also subject to both malus and clawback provisions and good and bad leaver provisions. All unvested Options will vest in certain corporate events such as a takeover of the company or a change of control. In these circumstances the Options would normally vest and become exercisable in full unless the Board decides that the Options will be pro-rated to take account of the date the corporate event took place during the normal vesting period. Full details of the Share Option Plan are set out in the Company's Admission Document.
