Remuneration to management

1. introduction

The main principle of Medistim's executive remuneration policy is that the compensation shall be competitive and provide the motivation to attract and retain individuals with the required competence.

The board determines remuneration for the CEO, while the CEO determines remuneration for the management team and leading employees. Compensation of the management is based on market terms and evaluated on a yearly basis. The terms have remained the same over several years. Remuneration of the CEO includes a share-based incentive plan. A 3 year share based incentive plan was also introduced for management group in 2021. This is described under point 3. The executive remuneration consists of a fixed salary and a variable part linked to the company's achievement. The criteria are reviewed annually and are linked to internal goals and budgets. Total remuneration in 2023 was in line with the criteria set for total compensation in 2023.

Management is included in the same pension plan as other employees. Other benefits are of minor financial importance such as free access to communication tools for the management team to be available. No executives will receive additional compensation when leaving the company.

Plans for 2022 and 2023 has been ambitious despite macroeconomic turmoil, the Russian/Ukrainian war and the Israel/Palestine war. However, the company's solutions continue to have an increasing interest among cardiac and vascular surgeons. As a consequence, several of management team and leading employees reached their target in 2022 and 2023.

This document also covers guidelines for determining the salary and other remuneration to management employees in accordance with The Public Limited Company Act Section 6-16a second paragraph. The principles described in the document are therefore applicable for 2024, and have not changed since last year.

The Limit under this scheme is a total share value of NOK 12,500,000, where shares of value NOK 10,000,000 is acquired and shares of value NOK 2,500,000 is granted.

The company's interest in providing financial assistance

In the Board's opinion, it is desirable that the company's senior executives own shares in the company, as this provides the employees with financial incentives to (i) maximize shareholder value and (ii) remain in their positions for sufficient time to create a good result for shareholders. In order to further facilitate such share purchases, the board considers it to be in the company's interest to offer senior executives financing assistance for the acquisition of shares under the company's long-term incentive agreement.

The financial supports consequences for the company's equity and liquidity

In the Board's opinion, the financial assistance will not have any significant impact on the company's liquidity and solvency. Medistim will use already acquired shares and therefor there is no cashflow effect. It is considered to be a limited risk for Medistim since the loan is secured against shares.
