VANCOUVER, June 17 /CNW/ - The directors of Vitality Products Inc. have, subject to shareholder and regulatory approval, considered and approved a rolling stock option plan (the "Plan"). The purpose of the Plan is to provide incentive to qualified parties to increase their proprietary interest in the Company and thereby encourage their continuing association with the Company. Under the Plan, the Company may grant incentive stock options to directors, officers, employees or consultants pursuant to which up to 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common shares, as at the time of grant, may be purchased.
Currently, there are 19,887,285 Common shares issued and outstanding. As a result, the number of Common shares currently issuable pursuant to the Plan is 1,988,728 Common shares, representing 10% of the issued and outstanding Common shares. The Plan will replace the Company's existing stock option plan (the "2005 Plan") which provides that the number of Common shares issuable under the 2005 Plan may not exceed 750,000 Common shares. There are 600,000 stock options outstanding.
Shareholders will be asked to approve the Plan at the Company's annual general meeting to be held on July 15, 2008.
On behalf of the Board of
VITALITY PRODUCTS INC.
