Stock Exchange Releases
18.4.2008
The Board of Directors of Tulikivi Corporation has approved a new incentive plan for the Tulikivi Group. The plan includes a share- based incentive plan for key personnel and an incentive pay scheme for all personnel.
The Plan includes three earning periods which are calendar years 2008, 2009 and 2010. The potential reward from the Plan for the earning period 2008 will be based on the Group’s profit after financial items and cash flow from operating activities.
The potential reward from the earning period 2008 will be paid partly as the Company’s A-shares and partly in cash in 2009. The proportion to be paid in cash will cover taxes and tax-related costs arising from the reward. It is prohibited to transfer the shares during the two year restriction period. If a key person’s employment or service ends during the restriction period, he/she must return the shares given as reward to the Company without compensation. Furthermore, a key person must own 30% of the shares earned on the basis of the Plan for two years after the restriction period.
A maximum total of 120,000 Tulikivi Corporation A-shares and a cash payment corresponding to the value of the shares will be paid as reward on the basis of the earning period 2008. A maximum total of 360,000 A-shares and a cash payment corresponding to the value of the shares will be paid as reward on the basis of the entire Plan.
Incentive pay scheme
The incentive pay scheme is based on the achievement of the Group’s earnings, productivity and personal targets. This scheme covers all personnel and replaces prior incentive plans.
