Employees are invited to save a fixed amount a month to buy equity certificates in the bank. Employees who sign up for the savings scheme will be able to save an annual amount of either NOK 6,000, 12,000, 24,000 or 36,000 through a monthly deduction from salary in the period January to December 2026. The savings amount will be used to buy equity certificates in SpareBank 1 Østlandet on behalf of the employees participating in the savings program.
SpareBank 1 Østlandet aims to complete the purchase of equity certificates in the market every quarter on the day or days following the presentation of the results for the first, second and third quarters of 2026, respectively, and if necessary, again in the fourth quarter of 2026. SB1 Markets will acquire the equity certificates on behalf of the bank.
The employees will be allocated equity certificates as soon as possible after the completion of the individual repurchases. Employees will be allocated the equity certificates at the same rate as SpareBank 1 Østlandet pays, ie market rate, without any kind of discount. The purchase price and the number of shares acquired by the bank will be announced in accordance with current regulations.
Two years after each allocation in the savings program for 2026, employees who have not disposed of any of the equity certificates purchased through the savings program during 2026 will be allocated free equity certificates (bonus certificates). The bonus certificates that will be distributed in 2028 will be awarded in arrears every quarter after the end of the corresponding period as two years earlier. Two equity certificates purchased through the savings program in the corresponding period in 2026 will entitle one bonus certificate.
