(Nedre Vats, 17 June 2024): All permanent employees (the "Permanent Employees") of AutoStore Holdings Ltd. ("AutoStore", OSE:AUTO) and its subsidiaries (the "Group") have been invited to participate in the employee share purchase plan for 2024 (the "2024 Program"). The employee share purchase plan was initially introduced in 2022 and continued in 2023 and 2024. The overall purpose of the employee share purchase plan is to closely align the participants' interests with those of the shareholders of AutoStore and to create a long-term commitment to AutoStore. The employee share purchase plan constitutes an important component in the Group's total compensation package designed to attract and retain competent and motivated employees.
Through the 2024 Program, the Permanent Employees will be offered to apply for shares in AutoStore for a minimum investment amount of NOK 1,000 and a maximum investment amount of NOK 1,000,000. Shares purchased will be subject to a two-year lock-up period.
The application period for the offer will commence today, Monday 17 June 2024, and will expire on 1 July 2024 at 16:30 hours (CEST) (the "Application Period"). The purchase price for each share under the 2024 Program will be equal to the volume-weighted average share price for AutoStore's shares on the Oslo Stock Exchange during the 30 trading days prior to the expiry of the offer (including the Application Period), with a reduction of 20% to compensate for the lock-up undertaking (calculated based on the Black & Scholes model).
The Company will use less than 1% of its issued share capital to satisfy executive- and employee incentives and the actual number of shares sold to Permanent Employees under the 2024 Program will be announced after expiry of the Application Period.
More information about the employee share purchase plan is provided in the remuneration guidelines approved at the annual general meeting of AutoStore on 19 May 2022. The guidelines are attached to the notice of the annual general meeting published by AutoStore on 28 April 2022 and are also available on AutoStore's website https://www.autostoresystem.com/investors.
