Axactor ASA: Employee share option plan 2025

16 May 2025 09:25 CEST

In accordance with the authorization granted by the AGM on 6 May 2025, the board
of directors of Axactor ASA has decided to establish a long-term incentive
program (LTI 2025) for senior executives employed by the Axactor group. The plan
encompasses up to 3 500 000 shares. The company's liability with respect to the
scheme will be met through holdings of treasury shares or by issuing new shares.

Under the LTI 2025, participants will receive share options, which, if certain
predefined performance criteria are met within a performance period, can be
exercised by paying the predefined strike price. The strike price is set as the
average share price of the last 30 days prior to grant. One share option gives a
contingent entitlement to one share after paying the strike price.

The following criteria determine the award of options during the three-year
performance period
1/3: employed when the performance period ends
1/3: share price development equal to or better than peers
1/3: return on equity meeting target set by the board of directors

Vesting of share options presumes that the individual is an employee of the
Axactor group. The total gain from exercised options during one calendar year
shall not exceed 200 per cent of the participant's base salary at grant. The
number of options will be adjusted in the event of a dividend payout to
preserve, but not increase, the value of the share option allocation.

The LTI 2025 is effective from 6 May 2025 and the share options will be vested
after three years.
