Other aspects
of the compensation policy (not subject to shareholder vote)
Global long-term profit-sharing policy (shares) During FY22, the Board of Directors reaffirmed its desire to involve key employees in the performance of Pernod Ricard shares, and decided, at its meeting of 10 November 2021, to no longer use the stock option mechanism and to implement an allocation plan composed of performance shares for managers in management-level positions and a share plan without performance conditions for young managers with potential (“Talents”) as well as for attracting new talents. The Board’s aim is therefore to continue to align the interests of Pernod Ricard employees with those of the shareholders, by encouraging them to hold shares of the Company. Just over 750 employees were rewarded, making it possible to target not only executives in management positions, but also to retain the "Talents" in all of the Group’s affiliates around the world. The Board of Directors confirmed the following plan features on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee: For young managers with potential (“Talents”): allocation of shares without performance condition; For executives holding management positions: allocation of shares subject to internal performance conditions, introducing a CSR criterion in addition to the internal financial performance criterion. The conditions applicable to this grant are as follows:
