IMPLEMENTATION OF LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PROGRAM FOR ALL EMPLOYEES

Each performance share right entitles to one share in Precise free of charge. Payment of performance share rights granted during the program period takes place after the AGM’s approval of the annual report 2027 and no later than June 30, 2028.

In order to facilitate the implementation of LTI 2022/2028 and secure delivery of shares to the participants, as well as to cover the company’s social security expenses, the AGM simultaneously resolved on amendment of the Articles of Association by way of introduction of new shares of series C, authorization for the Board to issue shares of series C, authorization for the Board to repurchase shares of series C, and approval of transfer of shares to participants in LTI 2022/2028.
