Resolution on a performance-based incentive program (LTI 2023)
The extraordinary general meeting resolved, in accordance with the board's proposal, to adopt a performance-based incentive program for 2023, LTI 2023. The board of directors considers that the introduction of a broad performance-based incentive program with a focus on rewarding growth with a view to profitability will benefit the Company's ability to achieve its business goals and will contribute to the Company's ability to retain and recruit employees. In order to secure and maximize the employee's commitment to the Company, allocation of these rights in LTI 2023 will be conditional on the participants allocating privately owned, so-called savings shares to the program.
A total of 1,976,556 warrants will be issued to enable allotment under the matching and performance rights (1,504,000 warrants) and to hedge costs for LTI 2023 (472,556 warrants), corresponding to approximately 2.80 percent of the currently outstanding shares in the Company.
The board of directors has the right, if necessary to hedge certain costs, to enter into so-called swap agreements with a third party (including a shareholder or a financial institution). The purpose is to secure the Company's obligations in connection with the approved incentive program.
Resolution on warrant program 2023/2026
The extraordinary general meeting resolved, in accordance with the board's proposal, to adopt a long-term incentive program for the CEO and certain members of management in the Midsummer group, whereby warrants will be issued without payment of any consideration to the Company which will thereafter transfer the warrants to employees of the group for the warrants market price. The board of directors has deemed it to be beneficial for the Company and its shareholders that employees in the Company's group are involved in the Company's development by offering them to acquire warrants in an incentive program. Such offer is expected to lead to increased motivation and an increased sense of belonging with the Company, as well as to an increased interest in the business and performance of the Company. The effects are amplified by the fact that the program is implemented on market terms where the persons concerned take part in stock price increases, but also take a personal risk by paying a market-based price for the warrants.
In total, 1,990,000 warrants will be issued to enable allotment, corresponding to approximately 2.79 percent of the currently outstanding shares in the Company. Subscription for shares based upon warrants may take place during a period of five months commencing on the day after the Company's quarterly report for Q1 report for the financial year 2026 has been made public. In the event that the Company has not announced any such quarterly report prior to
