The Meeting approved the Board of Directors’ proposal regarding guidelines for remuneration to senior executives.
In accordance with the proposal by the Board of Directors, the Meeting resolved on adoption of an incentive programme based on performance based employee stock options for certain employees. The incentive programme includes certain employees in the Episurf group (up to 22 persons, including Episurf’s senior management).
No more than 2,556,392 performance options will be issued. The performance options are hedged by an issue of no more than 2,556,392 warrants of series 2022/2025 to the subsidiary Episurf Operations AB.
Provided that the participant is still employed by the Episurf group at the exercise of the performance options, each performance option entitles the employee to purchase one share of series B in the Company at the expiry of a vesting period of three years from the allotment of the performance options for a price of SEK 3.57 per share of series B. Furthermore, the performance options are subject to certain performance targets for the financial year 2022, which determine to what extent the employees are entitled to keep and exercise the performance options.
The programme means that a maximum of 2,556,392 shares of series B may be issued, corresponding to a maximum dilution of approximately 0.9 per cent of the number of shares and votes in the Company.
