The Board of Directors will grant options to the Executive Board and management team again in 2014.

Market value is calculated using the Black-Scholes model with a volatility of 34% (calculation based on the past 36 months), an interest-rate level of 4% and a share price of DKK 380.64. The grant is governed by the provision that options granted will be exercised in March 2017. The measurement takes into consideration future dividend distribution of 2% of the share price.


Background information about Solar’s incentive scheme In 2006, the Board of Directors set up an incentive scheme for the Executive Board, adding the Solar Group management team to the scheme in 2008. The scheme is based on options that entitle the holder to buy shares from the company's holding of treasury shares. The reason for introducing the scheme was to seek to bind employees closer to the group and create a share price-dependent incentive for participants, thus enhancing agreement between the interests of shareholders and participants.

Today, share options outstanding total 107,464.
