The purpose of the Plan is to reward their active contribution to achieving the Company’s strategic objectives and to link their performance with the future performance of the Company and the Group as a whole.

In order to satisfy the stock options, the Company will proceed with a share capital increase through the issuance of new shares in accordance with Article 113 of Law 4548/2018 and the decision of the General Meeting dated 09.06.2023, which was unanimously adopted with a quorum of 72.45% regarding this matter.


The Total Duration of the Plan is three (3) years, commencing on 27.09.2023 and ending on 26.09.2026. This "Total Duration" is divided into three (3) separate "Annual Periods": The “First Period” runs from 27.09.2023 to 26.09.2024; the “Second Period” from 27.09.2024 to 26.09.2025; and the “Third Period” from 27.09.2025 to 26.09.2026.

The Board of Directors will convene within each "Annual Period" to determine the beneficiaries of stock options for that year and the number of options to be granted.
