TGS Awards Performance Share Units and Restricted Share Units
OSLO, Norway (9 August 2023) - TGS has issued awards of Performance Share Units
(PSUs) and Restricted Share Units (RSUs) to 221 key employees of the Company, as
authorized by the shareholders of the Company at its Annual General Meeting on
10 May 2023. With the exception of certain RSUs, which are secured by the
Company's treasury stock, the PSUs and RSUs are secured by free-standing
warrants that, upon vesting of the PSUs and RSUs in accordance with their terms,
are convertible to shares of the Company's common stock. Each PSU represents
the right to receive the maximum of one share, while each RSU represents the
right to receive one share.
The PSUs are granted to members of the executive and senior leadership teams and
will vest on 8 August 2026, provided the employee remains employed with TGS on
the vesting date. Upon vesting, the PSUs will be converted to TGS shares on the
terms approved by the Annual General Meeting, depending on performance versus
target metrics. The number of shares will be determined by multiplying the
number of PSUs granted by a factor of 0% to 100%. The factor is determined by
performance against three target metrics: (i) relative return on average capital
employed compared against a defined peer group of companies, (ii) TGS' return on
average capital employed, and (iii) HSE and ESG goals. Each of the performance
metrics is measured for the period 1 January 2023 through 31 December 2025.
The RSUs are granted to certain key employees and will also vest on 8 August
2026, provided the employee remains employed at vesting and has achieved a
satisfactory performance rating against their goals over the three-year plan
period. Upon vesting, the holder of the RSUs will receive an equivalent number
of TGS shares.
The list of the primary insiders receiving PSUs and RSUs is attached. The
maximum number of new shares to be issued under the awarded PSUs and RSUs is
850,000.
