Long-Term Incentive Program initiated
The Board of Directors of BW Energy Limited ("BWE" or the "Company") has
approved the award of share options under a Long-Term Incentive Program (LTIP)
adopted on 19(th) May 2021, to align the interests of the participating
employees with those of the Company's shareholders. This is the first annual
award under the LTIP. The LTIP is discretionary and participants are invited on
an annual basis.
The total number of shares awarded under the LTIP for 2021 are 1,547,966, where
1,289,972 are allocated to options that will give the holder the right to
acquire one BW Energy shares and 257,994 are allocated to Restricted Share Units
("RSUs") providing the holder shares at each vesting event. A total of 16 BW
Energy employees have been invited to participate in the program.
The strike price of the options is calculated based on the volume weighted
average share price five trading days prior to grant date, plus a premium of
15.76% (corresponding to a 5% increase annually over 3 years). The strike price
for the options awarded on 7 July 2021 is NOK 30,73.
The options will have a vesting period of three years, followed by a three years
exercise period. Exercise windows will be set by the Company. The options will
expire 6 years after the award date.
The RSUs are settled in shares immediately following vesting schedule. At time
of vesting the shares will be settled at the Fair Market Value. The RSUs will
vest 1/3 annually over three years.
