NZX chief executive Mark Weldon has cashed in two million shares in the stock exchange company partly to buy a property, while exercising his executive share plan.

Fresh from helping the government raise $82 million for the earthquake appeal fund, Mr Weldon sold the shares for $4.68 million, reducing his beneficial stake from 6.63% to 4.98%.

The share sale would enable him to fund the purchase of 896,264 NZX shares under the terms of the 2007 chief executive share plan, and to enable the purchase of a property, NZX said in a filing today.

Following the transfer, Mr Weldon’s Lola Nominees held 6.04 million shares.
