The Board of Directors of Reach Subsea ASA has decided to establish a long-term
incentive program for senior executives and key personnel in accordance with the
Group's Remuneration Guidelines. The incentive program encompasses up to
15,000,000 new share options. Under the incentive program, participants will
receive share options, which, if certain predefined performance criteria are met
within a performance period, can be exercised by paying the predefined strike
price. The strike price is set as the nominal value, NOK 1.00. One share option
gives a contingent entitlement to one share after paying the strike price.
Participants in the incentive program can elect to have up to 50% of their
options settled in cash to finance any potential tax expenses.
50% of the options issued will vest after 3 years given a share price above NOK
9.00.
50% of the options issued will vest after 5 years given a share price above NOK
12.00.
The share price hurdles of NOK 9.00 and NOK 12.00 are subject to adjustments for
dividends paid during the vesting period.
