Executive Equity Award Plan (EEAP) (granted 2005 and 2006) The Executive Equity Award Plan is offered annually to the Board of Directors, to the Management Board, as well as to management and senior employees of Group companies, which entitles them to receive options and/or shares free of charge. The amount of options and/or shares granted varies depending on the degree of management responsibility held. Both options and shares granted as part of the EEAP are split into four equal tranches. For the options, one tranche vests each year over four years, starting one year after the grant date. The shares are blocked over four years, one tranche being released each year, starting one year after the grant date. Options – Executive Equity Award Plan (granted 2005 and 2006) The exercise price of the options is generally equal to the market price of the Phonak share at the SWX Swiss Stock Exchange (closing price) on the date the options are granted. The fair value of the options granted is estimated at the grant date and recorded as an expense over the vesting period. The options may be exercised after expiration of the vesting period during the term of the options, which is 5 years from the date the options are granted. When the options are exercised, shares are issued from the conditional share capital. The following table shows the assumptions on which the valuation of share options granted during the period was based: Executive Equity Award Plan Valuation date Expiration date Share price on grant date Exercise price Volatility Expected dividend yield Weighted risk free interest rate Fluctuation rate Weighted average fair value of options issued Outstanding Options – Key People Program and Executive Equity Award Plan Changes in outstanding options Outstanding options at April 1 Granted Exercised 1) Expired/forfeited Outstanding options at March 31 Exercisable at March 31 1) Total consideration from exercise of options amounted to CHF 6.4 million (previous year CHF 7.5 million) Number of options 1,852,250 420,818 (338,525) (91,850) 1,842,693 37,000 2005/06 2006 01.02.2006 31.01.2011 CHF 63.25 CHF 63.25 20.6% 0.75 1.9% 4.3% CHF 10.22 Weighted average exercise price CHF 29.94 63.25 19.04 31.53 39.90 39.20 2005 01.02.2005 31.01.2010/30.09.2010 CHF 39.00 CHF 39.00 22.2% 0.80 1.1% 1.9% CHF 6.55 Number of options 2,060,950 712,000 (560,200) (360,500) 1,852,250 217,300 2004/05 Weighted average exercise price Consolidated Financial Statements CHF 26.15 39.00 13.50 51.50 29.94 13.88 81
