Shares saving plan for employees
Bakkafrost has established a share saving plan for
its employees. It is the Board's intention that the
plan shall be a continuing part of the company's
employee incentive scheme. However, the Board shall
have the right to decide, in its sole discretion,
whether or not the plan will be extended in the
future and the terms of the plan.
For 2014 the company offers a share saving plan based
on maximum 5 percent of the monthly basic salary. The
saved amount is deducted from the monthly net salary
and used to purchase Bakkafrost shares quarterly on
behalf of the employees. The purchase will be made
from Bakkafrost's treasury shares or on the market.

announcement of the quarterly results. An employee
cannot change the savings amount during the year, but
an employee can cancel the subscription during the
year. The purchase price and the number of shares
acquired by the company will be reported in
accordance with the applicable regulations. After two
full years of ownership, which is 1st january 2017,
the company will allocate one bonus share for every
share purchased in connection with this offer of 2014.
