4.1. Management Board

Members of the Company's Management Board may be compensated on the basis of the Legal Basis of Employment. The Legal Basis of Employment as well as the remuneration rules concerning the fixed part and the variable part of the remuneration of members of the Management Board are determined individually for a Member of the Management Board by the Supervisory Board in the Legal Basis of Employment or on the basis of a separate resolution, taking into account the Remuneration Policy and the scope of responsibility of the Member of the Management Board. Regardless of the form of employment between a Member of the Management Board and the Company, a Member of the Management Board may receive a monetary remuneration consisting of two parts, i.e. a fixed part and a variable part. The Supervisory Board, when appointing a Member of the Management Board, determines the basic elements of the remuneration of the member of the Management Board, including the amount of the Fixed and Variable Remuneration and the rules governing the dependence of the Variable Remuneration on financial or non-financial performance.

Fixed Remuneration

The amount of the Fixed Remuneration is determined individually for a member of the Management Board by the Supervisory Board in the Legal Basis of Employment or by way of a separate resolution.

Variable Remuneration

Irrespective of the Fixed Remuneration, a member of the Management Board may be entitled to Variable Remuneration, the amount of which is subject to meeting the conditions concerning the fulfilment of financial or non-financial criteria.

The Variable Remuneration may consist, inter alia, of the right to:

In special circumstances concerning a member of the Management Board and his/her commitment to the Company's affairs, an additional one-off monetary award may be granted to the member of the Management Board.

When establishing the Variable Remuneration criterion, the Supervisory Board defines comprehensive and differentiated criteria for financial and non-financial performance concerning the allocation of Variable Remuneration components. In particular, the achievement of the objectives set is considered as such criteria.

The performance target set for the members of the Management Board by the Supervisory Board for 2021, specifying the amount of the consolidated operating profit of the Grupa Pracuj S.A. Capital Group to be achieved, has been met, and therefore certain bonuses will be paid to the members of the Management Board in 2022 after the relevant resolution has been adopted by the Supervisory Board.

In the resolution laying down the conditions for granting the Variable Remuneration, the Supervisory Board indicates financial and non-financial criteria consistent with the Remuneration Policy.

  • b) the right to use benefits such as sports cards, medical care, cafeteria system;

Since the entry into force of the Remuneration Policy, the Company has paid remuneration to members of the Management Board and the Supervisory Board in accordance with the provisions of the Remuneration Policy. The total remuneration included only the components provided for in the Remuneration Policy and was paid in accordance with its rules, in the appropriate amount, in accordance with the Legal Basis of Employment based on predetermined criteria. In accordance with the Remuneration Policy, the criteria used ensure that the incentives for the individual performance of the members of the Management Board are balanced against the achievement of the objectives and strategies, with particular consideration of the Company's interest.

Variable Remuneration components based on criteria covering annual periods and participation in long-term incentive programmes promote motivation and pursuit of the long-term interests of the Company by stabilizing management personnel with the skills and experience necessary for the further development of the Company. In addition, clear remuneration rules improve the Company's perception among shareholders, potential investors, contribute to the increase the value of the Company's shares and positively influence the Company's image.

6. Application of the Performance Criteria

In accordance with the Remuneration Policy and the scope of responsibility, members of the Management Board are entitled to a Fixed Remuneration comprising payments and benefits for the position held and the work performed, which does not depend on criteria connected with the performance or assessment of the performance of the person concerned.

Performance criteria are defined when determining the variable components of the remuneration of members of the Management Board. Such criteria were also established prior to the entry into force of the Remuneration Policy and were based on the achievement of a certain consolidated financial results of the Grupa Pracuj S.A. Capital Group.

The criteria and rules for the payment of the Variable Remuneration are set each time in a resolution of the Supervisory Board. If a member of the Management Board is granted the possibility to receive Variable Remuneration, the target for the next financial year is set by the Supervisory Board.

When determining the conditions for granting the Variable Remuneration, the Supervisory Board indicates clear, comprehensive and diverse financial and non-financial criteria, including criteria connected with taking into account social interests, the Company's contribution to environmental protection and taking actions aimed at preventing and eliminating the negative social consequences of the Company's operations.

The maximum ratio of the Variable Remuneration awarded in a given financial year to the Fixed Remuneration due for the same financial year should not exceed 5:1. This ratio may be increased if the right to subscribe for the subscription warrants incorporating the right to acquire shares in the Company or to acquire shares in the Company under a multiannual incentive programme introduced by a separate resolution of the General Meeting is granted or exercised, or if the right to participate in an incentive system allowing for the payment of monetary remuneration directly dependent on the financial results of the Company, the Capital Group or the segment for which the member of the Management Board is responsible. In such a case, the ratio of the Fixed Remuneration to the Variable Remuneration in a given financial year takes into account the results of the commercial activity of the Company or the Grupa Pracuj S.A. Capital Group, the achievement of market, performance or loyalty objectives, as well as an increase in the value of the Company's shares, as instruments listed on the WSE, in a given period.
