OSLO, Norway (10 August 2023) - In accordance with the measures approved by the
shareholders of TGS at the Annual General Meeting on 27 March 2020, the Board of
Directors of TGS Geophysical Company ASA authorized TGS to grant Performance
Stock Units (PSUs) and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) under the 2020 Long Term
Incentive Plan to key employees of TGS on 10 August 2020. Each RSU represented
the right to receive one share, while each PSU represented the right to receive
a maximum of one share depending on performance against target metrics during
the measurement period of 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2022. The granted PSUs
and RSUs were secured by free-standing warrants.
In accordance with the terms of the 2020 Long Term Incentive Plan, the PSUs and
RSUs vested on 10 August 2023, resulting in a total of 79 PSU/RSU holders having
the right to request the issuance of a total of 131,977 TGS shares at par value
NOK 0.25. The TGS Board of Directors determined that the final payout on the
PSUs is 21.5% based on achievement of performance metrics set forth in the plan,
resulting in a total of 41,708 shares issuable to thirteen holders of the vested
PSUs. In addition, 90,269 shares are issuable to sixty-seven employees for the
vesting of the RSUs.
PSU/RSU holders have the option of allowing a portion of their vested shares to
be cash settled by TGS, using the fair market value of the shares as defined
under the plan, to cover tax withholding obligations and other necessary
deductions that arise in connection with the vest.
