Aker Solutions to Execute Share Purchase Program for Employees
Aker Solutions to Execute Share Purchase Program for Employees
November 1, 2019 - Aker Solutions will offer employees in selected jurisdictions
the opportunity to purchase shares of the company.
The 2019 employee share purchase program allows participants to acquire shares
for a trading value between NOK 10,000 and NOK 60,000. Participants are offered
a general discount of up to NOK 3,000 on their total share purchase. In
addition, a price reduction of 25 percent of the share price will apply in
exchange for the purchased shares being subject to a three-year lock-up period.
The purchase will be financed by a loan from Aker Solutions to be settled by
salary deductions over a twelve-month period.
Aker Solutions will also offer selected managers the opportunity to buy
additional shares for an amount of up to 25 percent of their annual base salary.
A price reduction of 25 percent of the share price will apply in exchange for
the purchased shares being subject to a three-year lock-up period. The managers
are responsible for the financing and upfront cash settlement of these
purchases.
The subscription period for both programs is November 1 to November 22, 2019.
The price per share will be based on the average volume-weighted share price on
the Oslo Stock Exchange in the period December 2 to December 6, 2019. Shares
will be allocated to participants on December 9, 2019.
Aker Solutions will purchase own shares in the open market for onwards sale to
participants under the programs. The company will acquire shares on the Oslo
Stock Exchange in accordance with buy-back regulations set out in section 3-12
of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act. Based on subscription levels in
previous share purchase programs in Aker Solutions, and reflecting the current
holding of own shares, the company expects to buy back between 1 million and 2
million shares. The purchasing volume is subject to change based on the actual
number of participants in the share purchase programs. The buyback of shares
will be initiated immediately and is expected to be completed by December 6,
