VANCOUVER, BC, April 2, 2025 /CNW/ - GR Silver Mining Ltd. ("GR Silver Mining" or the "Company") (TSXV: GRSL) (OTCQB: GRSLF) (FRANKFURT: GPE) – announces that the Company has granted stock options ("Options") and Deferred Share Units ("DSUs") to eligible persons in accordance with the Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan") approved by the Board on August 2, 2022 and approved by shareholders at the Company's Annual General Meeting held on November 12, 2024, and subject to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV").
The Company granted an aggregate 860,000 incentive stock options under the Plan to certain employees and consultants, which options have a five-year term and fully vested on their date of grant. The Company also granted an aggregate 400,000 incentive stock options under the Plan to certain executive officers, which options have a five-year term, with 1/3 vesting on the date of grant and a further 1/3 vesting on each of the first and second anniversaries of the date of grant. All of the foregoing options are exercisable at a price of $0.155 per common share.
A total of 154,836 deferred share units (each, a "DSU") were granted to the Company's non-executive directors for director's fees relating to the calendar quarter ended March 31, 2025, which DSUs will vest one year after their date of grant in accordance with TSXV policies. The Board has adopted a director fee equity compensation package whereby for each calendar quarter until resolved otherwise by the Board, each non-executive director will receive DSUs equal in value to $6,000, with the number of DSUs to be determined based on the closing price of the Company's common shares at the applicable quarter end.
Once vested, each DSU entitles the holder thereof to receive either one common share of the Company, the cash equivalent of one common share or a combination of cash and common shares, as determined by the Company, net of applicable withholdings. DSUs may not be settled until a director ceases to serve as a director of the Company. The Plan includes (i) a rolling 10% stock option plan, and (ii) a fixed 10% plan which permits the Company to issue up to 19,521,680 shares on settlement of all non-stock option awards issued under the Plan (including DSUs and PSUs). Following the above-noted grants, there are 2,343,356 shares issuable on settlement of all outstanding DSUs and PSUs.
