Share price related incentive program
The annual general meeting resolved to adopt a share price related incentive program (the “Program”) for 20-25 senior executive and other key employees within the TradeDoubler group. Participants in the Program must waive their right to short term variable remuneration during the three year term of the Program. The Program comprises a maximum of 2,400,000 shares. Allocation in the Program is contingent upon that the share price, including dividends, in TradeDoubler increases with more than 100 per cent during the performance period starting on 1 June 2015 and ending 31 May 2018. If the goal is met the shares will be allotted, if not there will be no allotment.
The annual general meeting further resolved to introduce a new class of shares, class C shares. The board of directors may reclassify the class C shares into ordinary shares. To ensure the delivery of shares under the Program, the annual general meeting resolved to authorise the board of directors to decide on a directed issue of a maximum of 3,120,000 class C shares to Nordea Bank AB (publ) and subsequently resolve to repurchase the same shares. Further, the annual general meeting resolved that the repurchased class C shares may be reclassified into ordinary shares and subsequently transferred to the participants under the Program.
Finally the annual general meeting resolved to authorise the board of directors, during the period until the next annual general meeting, to resolve, on one or more occasions, on the transfer of not more than 475,000 shares on Nasdaq Stockholm, which are not needed for the company’s other on-going incentive programs, in order to cover certain expenses, primarily social security costs and costs for the repurchase of class C shares.
