COPENHAGEN, Denmark, April 29, 2022 – Bavarian Nordic A/S (OMX: BAVA) has today received information about the following transactions of the Company’s shares/related securities by persons holding managerial responsibilities and/or persons/companies closely associated with such.
The transactions concern grant of restricted stock units as part of the remuneration of the Board of Directors as adopted at the ordinary general meeting on April 5, 2022. Restricted stock units equivalent to the value of 50% of the annual cash fee for members of the Board of Directors are granted, and the number of restricted stock units has now been calculated based on an average of the closing price of the Company's shares over a period of 15 trading days after the annual general meeting.

Furthermore, in accordance with the Company’s Remuneration Policy as adopted at the ordinary general meeting, and as announced in the Company’s Q3 report in November 2021, restricted stock units are granted to President & CEO, Paul Chaplin as part of his retention scheme. Restricted stock units equivalent to 50% of the base wage for Paul Chaplin in 2021 are granted, and the amount has been calculated based on an average of the closing price of the Company's shares over a period of 15 trading days prior to today. In addition, matching shares will be granted free of charge upon expiry of the vesting period, a minimum of three years from the grant date. Matching shares are granted at a ratio of 1:2, i.e., one matching share will be granted for each two restricted stock units. Apart from the retention element, the acquisition of restricted stock units and matching shares is conditional upon that Paul Chaplin has not passed away prior to the expiry of the vesting period.
