The vesting of PSUs and RSUs granted by TGS in 2017 in accordance with the terms of the 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan resulted in the right for a total of 52 participants to request the issuance of an aggregate of up to 399,500 shares of TGS common stock pursuant to free-standing warrants subscribed by the participant at the time of grant.  Participants had the right to request TGS to settle a portion of the vested units in cash to allow satisfaction of employees’ tax withholding obligations arising as a result of the vest. 

Following the vest of the PSUs and RSUs, an aggregate of 321,070 new shares of TGS common stock have been issued to the 52 employees on 25 August 2020, which amount is net of any units that were settled in cash.  The following reflects the shares issued to the primary insiders:

- Sven Borre Larsen – 20,181 shares
