Success-based Remuneration (Long Term Incentive Program and Strategic Share Bonus): In 2008, expenses deriving from success-based remuneration were allocated to the respective functions for which the related managers had responsibility. In the year 2008, T€ 338 were incurred as administration expenses and T€ 211 as selling and marketing expenses. Of these, T€ 466 are included as other current liabilities and T€ 83 as other noncurrent liabilities. Long Term Incentive Program In a meeting dated May 14, 2007, the Supervisory Board, represented by the Presidential Committee, resolved to introduce a long-term incentive program which came into effect on January 1, 2008. The program is based on the “performance cash bonus” concept; i.e. after expiration of the performance period of three years, the managers that are entitled under the program receive a variable monetary bonus depending upon achievement of defined performance objectives and if the relevant conditions are complied with. For the four members of the Executive Board, 70% of this performance cash bonus is based on the development of the share price and 30% is based on the so-called “<strong>Symrise</strong> Value Added.” A further eight second level senior managers (so-called “regional presidents”) have been included in the long-term incentive program. Their bonus entitlement is based on the same performance criteria but with an equal weighting (50% respectively) for the share price component and the “<strong>Symrise</strong> Value Added” component. A comparison will be made of the share price at the end of 2010 with the initial share price of € 17.93 as at January 1, 2008. The terms include a minimum performance expectation of 20% and a maximum share price limitation (cap). Measurement of the prob- Notes
