Zwipe's board of directors has resolved to issue options to primary insiders
OSLO, NORWAY - 2 June 2021 - In accordance with the mandate given at Zwipe AS's
annual general meeting on 19 May 2021 to the board of directors ("the Board") to
issue new options to the company's employees under the company's existing long
-term incentive program, the Board has resolved to issue 220,000 new share
options to primary insiders.
The strike price was set at NOK 30.13 in accordance with established principles
in the program.
The following primary insiders in the Company have been granted additional share
options by the Board:
· André Løvestam (CEO) has been granted 50,000 share options in the Company,
following which he holds in total 690,000 share options
· Bishwajit Choudhary (EVP Financial Institutions & Alliances) has been
granted 60,000 share options in the Company, following which he holds in total
150,000 share options
· Eric Mercer (COO) has been granted 50,000 share options in the Company,
following which he holds in total 150,000 share options
· Dr. Robert Mueller (CTO) has been granted 30,000 share options in the
Company,
following which he holds in total 150,000 share options
· John Goodale (CCO) has been granted 30,000 share options in the Company,
following which he holds in total 110,000 share options
The existing share-based incentive program covers employees and members of the
Board. Each option gives the holder the right to acquire one share from the
company at a strike price defined in the individual share option agreement. All
options are conditional that the grantee remains employed. All vested options
may be exercised in any period prior to the expiry date. The options vest every
6 months over 3 years from grant date and may be exercised at vesting. The share
-based incentive program is dedicated for allocation to company management and
employees, whereby they may be offered the opportunity of participating in a
value growth in company shares. This is expected to lead to an increase in
interest in the company's value development.
Until the AGM in 2022, the Board is authorized to issue up to 2,306,319 options,
of which a total of 1,911,000 options have now been issued.
