Implementation of new long-term share-based incentive plan
The Board of Directors of Svitzer Group A/S (the 'Board of Directors'), CVR-no. 44 79 14 47, ('Svitzer Group' or the 'Company') has today decided to implement a new share-based incentive plan for 2025 - the Employee Share Purchase Plan (the "ESPP"), and to announce the annual grant of restricted share units ('RSUs') for 2025 under the Company's current long-term incentive plan (the 'LTI').
Employee Share Purchase Plan 2025
The Global Leadership Team of Svitzer will be invited to participate in the ESPP for 2025. The ESPP is designed to cultivate a genuine ownership culture and incentivise commitment and retention of the participants.
Under the ESPP, participants will be invited to acquire a number of shares in the Svitzer Group at market price ('Investment Shares') based on a fixed investment amount. Participants will then be granted a number of matching shares equal to the number of Investment Shares acquired ('Matching Shares'). The Matching Shares will be granted free of charge. It is a requirement for participation in the ESPP, and for the grant of Matching Shares, that the participant is employed with the Company or the group on the date of the grant and that such employment is not under notice of termination.
The Matching Shares have a vesting period of three years from 1 April 2025 and will, upon vesting, be converted into an equivalent number of ordinary shares in Svitzer Group. Vesting of the Matching Shares is subject to the participant's continued employment with the Company or the group, and the participant maintaining ownership of their Investment Shares for the duration of the vesting period. Customary good leaver and bad leaver provisions apply to vesting under the ESPP.
Based on the expected number of Investment Shares to be acquired by participants, approximately 16,000 Matching Shares will be granted to participants. The aggregate value of the Matching Shares to be granted under the ESPP for 2025 may amount to up to DKK 3 million.
Grants of Restricted Share Units for 2025
The annual grant of RSUs for 2025 under the Company's current Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTI), in accordance with the Remuneration Policy, will entitle participants, subject to vesting, to be allocated a number of shares in the Company equivalent to the number of RSUs that have vested and not lapsed.
The CEO will be granted 85% of the annual base salary in the form of RSUs, and the CFO will be granted 60% of the annual base salary in the form of RSUs. The grants of RSUs under the LTI for 2025 are expected to take place in April 2025 and will be based on the volume-weighted average share price (VWAP) of the Company's shares traded on Nasdaq Copenhagen during the first 5 trading days following the publication of the Annual Report.
RSUs under the current LTI will be granted free of charge. Grants of RSUs do not depend on the achievement of specific goals. It is a requirement for participation in the LTI, and for any grant thereunder, that the participant is employed with the Company or the group on the date of the grant and that such employment is not under notice of termination.
RSUs granted under the LTI will have a vesting period of three years, calculated from 1 April 2025. Vesting of RSUs is subject to the participant's continued employment with the Company or the group. Customary good leaver and bad leaver provisions apply to the vesting of the RSUs.
The aggregate value of the RSUs to be granted under the LTI for 2025 may amount to up to DKK 12.2 million.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 3, 2025) - New Zealand Energy Corp. (TSXV: NZ) ("NZEC" or the "Company") announced today it has filed with Canadian regulatory authorities its Q1 2025 consolidated financial results and an accompanying management discussion and analysis report, which documents are available on the Company's website at and on SEDAR at Commenting on the Company's first quarter 2025 results, CEO Mike Adams said "The results saw a total comprehensive loss of $994,550. (2024: loss of $914,919). There was a $965,615 decrease in cash held ($155,930 was held at the end of the quarter). Cash used in operating activities for the quarter was $665,681 (2024: used $397,608)." With respect to development operations, Mr Adams commented: "New Zealand Energy Corp. (NZEC) shifted its primary focus to the Tariki Gas Field conversion project in Q1 2025. The decline in gas rate at the Tariki-5A well in January prompted an immediate change in priorities. In the short term, NZEC has been restoring accessible Waihapa-Ngaere wells to production. By the end of Q1, four wells were added back into production, with two more expected by the end of Q2, aiming for rates of ~50 to 80 bopd (NZEC share 25 to 40 bopd). Additionally, two Copper Moki workovers in June 2025 are expected to add ~200 bopd (NZEC share) and 0.2 mmscf/d of associated gas, enabling gas sales to market from late June 2025 via the Cheal Production Station. Along with the Q1 and Q2 2025 production activities, aimed at restoring positive cash flow, the focus is the Tariki Gas Storage development. Reservoir studies have commenced, with initial recommendations expected in mid-June 2025. Detailed project deliverables will be available in early August 2025, defining gas storage capacity, cushion gas requirements, and long-term storage behaviours. In parallel, NZEC has started storage facility development concept studies and is in commercial discussions with potential gas storage customers. With this work in progress, NZEC is well-positioned to advance the Tariki Gas Storage project to the Final Investment Decision (FID) stage within the next 12 months, and then to prioritise opportunities within its remaining existing acreage."
