On 9 April 2020, the Board set up a long-term incentive plan to grant awards satisfied using existing VINCI shares, initially involving an award of 598,368 existing VINCI shares to 1,068 senior executives or employees of the Group residing outside France. The Board decided that the awards would vest provided their beneficiaries remained with the Group and if the Board noted that certain performance conditions were met. The performance conditions were identical to those described above in paragraph 5.2.1, “Existing performance share plans”, page 167. At its meeting of 8 February 2023, the Board noted that the vesting percentage for share awards under the performance share plan set up by the Board on 9 April 2020 was 90%. The shares in question vested at the end of a three-year period on 9 April 2023, subject to continued employment within the VINCI Group.
On 18 June 2020, the Board set up a long-term incentive plan to grant awards satisfied using existing VINCI shares, initially involving an award of 29,440 existing VINCI shares to Mr Huillard, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Board decided that this award would vest provided Mr Huillard remained with the Group and if the Board noted that certain performance conditions were met. This plan was subject to the same performance conditions as those applying to the performance share plan set up for the employees on 9 April 2020, with the exception of the procedures for the calculation of ROCE, which were not modified for Mr Huillard in respect of the decline in passenger numbers at VINCI Airports, as well as the vesting percentage linked to the performance of the TSR for a VINCI shareholder relative to the TSR for the CAC 40 index, which was to be equal to 0% if the difference was negative.
At its meeting of 8 February 2023, the Board noted the following:
Overall, 80% of the performance shares in the plan set up by the Board on 18 June 2020 for the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer were able to vest. The 23,552 shares in question vested for Mr Huillard on 18 June 2023.
On 8 April 2021, the Board set up a long-term incentive plan to grant awards satisfied using existing VINCI shares, initially involving an award of 30,900 existing VINCI shares to Mr Huillard, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Board decided that this award would vest provided Mr Huillard remained with the Group and if the Board noted that certain performance conditions were met. This plan is subject to the same performance conditions as those applying to the performance share plan set up for the employees on 8 April 2021, with the exception of the vesting percentage linked to the performance of the TSR for a VINCI shareholder relative to the TSR for a composite industry index, comprised of companies representing the full range of VINCI’s business activities, which would be equal to 0% if the difference is negative.
