The Board of Directors of Alisa Bank Plc has resolved to arrange a directed
share issue in which new shares of the company will be offered to the personnel
for subscription. In addition, the Board of Directors has resolved to launch a
matching share plan for the personnel. The purpose of the personnel share issue
and the matching share plan is to encourage the personnel to acquire and own
shares of Alisa Bank Plc on a long-term basis and commit them to work for the
company.
Alisa Bank Plc announced the planning of the personnel share issue and the
matching share plan on 17 January 2023.
Personnel Share Issue
In the personnel share issue, a maximum total of 1,807,229 new shares in the
company will, in deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive subscription
rights, be offered for subscription by the personnel of the company and its
subsidiaries. The shares to be offered represent approximately 1.23 per cent of
all shares and votes in the company before the personnel share issue and
approximately 1.21 per cent after the personnel share issue, provided that all
shares offered will be subscribed.
The subscription price is 0.1660 euros per share. The share subscription price
is based on the trade volume weighted average price of the company share on
Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd during the period from 1 September 2024 to 30 September 2024
and on a discount of ten (10) per cent thereof. The average price of the share
during the period mentioned above was 0.1844 euros per share. The share
subscription period is from 25 October 2024 to 15 November 2024. The minimum
subscription is 3,012 shares per person, which equals in value a subscription
price of approximately 500 euros, and the maximum subscription is 120,482 shares
per person, which equals in value a subscription price of approximately 20,000
euros. The aggregate maximum subscription amount equals in value a subscription
price of approximately 300,000 euros. The subscriptions must be paid in
connection with the subscription. The subscription price will be credited to the
company's reserve for invested unrestricted equity.
The terms and conditions of the personnel share issue are attached to this stock
exchange release. The final result of the personnel share issue will be released
approximately in week 47-48.
The resolution on the share issue is based on the authorisation granted by the
Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on 20 March 2024.
Matching Share Plan
In the matching share plan, the persons who subscribed for shares in the
personnel share issue have the opportunity to receive matching shares
gratuitously after a matching period of approximately three years.
The prerequisite for receiving the reward is that the subscriber subscribes for
company shares in the personnel share issue within the subscription limits set
by the Board of Directors in advance. If the subscriber has held the shares
subscribed in the personnel share issue and their employment or service
relationship with a group company has continued until the reward payment date,
the subscriber will receive matching shares gratuitously as a reward from the
company according to the ratio decided by the Board of Directors.
The rewards from the plan will be paid after the matching period that ends in
2027. The potential matching shares of the identified risk takers, however, will
be paid in a deferred manner in accordance with the financial sector legislation
in such a manner that the rewards will be paid to the participants after the end
of the matching period within approximately four (4) years in five (5)
instalments. For the identified risk takers, the payment of the reward
instalments is followed by a one-year (1) retention period, during which the
person cannot dispose of the shares paid as a reward.
The rewards will be paid partly in Alisa Bank Plc's shares and partly in cash.
The cash proportion of the reward is intended to cover taxes and statutory
social security contributions arising from the reward to the employee. The
maximum number of gross shares to be paid on the basis of the plan is
approximately 1,807,229 Alisa Bank Plc shares (including the cash proportion of
the reward), which corresponds to approximately EUR 322,410 calculated based on
the volume weighted average price of Alisa Bank Plc's share on 22 October 2024.
The final number of matching shares depends on the number of shares subscribed
by the participants in the personnel share issue and the fulfilment of the
conditions set for the matching share payment.
