Ann: Notification of Expiry of Unlisted Options, page-16

How much doom and gloom can be generated on a slow Friday afternoon? Too much, I think, given we are up two pips on the day, anyway.

So far we agree we are all speculating why no exercise has occurred, but all scenarios to date are negative. Well, how about that the options might have been employee share plan options. And those staffers have moved on before being entitled to vesting?

Which would mean the options in question CANNOT be taken up, because the nominated (ex) staff members are no longer ina position to do so.

Not anything I know for a fact, just a Friday mood balancer.
