# Keda Group plans to launch an employee stock ownership plan in 2025

According to the Zhitong Finance APP, Keda Group (600499.SH) has released the draft of its 2025 Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The stocks for this Employee Stock Ownership Plan will come from the A-share common stock repurchased by the company through its dedicated repurchase securities account. After being reviewed and approved by the company's shareholders' meeting, it is planned to transfer 59,999,900 shares of the repurchased stock through non-trading transfers and other legally permitted methods, accounting for approximately 3.13% of the company's existing total equity, with a purchase price of 4.14 yuan per share.

In order to achieve the company's medium- to long-term strategic goals and continuously attract and retain outstanding talent, this Employee Stock Ownership Plan intends to set aside reserved target stocks, with the number of reserved target stocks not exceeding 11,999,900 shares, accounting for 20% of the total number of target stocks intended to be held in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan.

The duration of this Employee Stock Ownership Plan is 48 months. The initial grant and reserved shares will have their allocation plan for the target stocks determined by September 30, 2025 (inclusive), with the stocks unlocking in three phases: the lock-up periods are 12 months, 24 months, and 36 months, with unlocking ratios of 40%, 30%, and 30%, respectively. If the allocation plan for the reserved shares is determined after September 30, 2025, they will unlock in two phases, with lock-up periods of 12 months and 24 months, and unlocking ratios of 50% and 50%, respectively, calculated from the date the company announces the initial grant/reserved grant of stocks transferred to this Employee Stock Ownership Plan. This Employee Stock Ownership Plan will set performance assessment indicators for both the company and individuals for the participants
