Share ownership guideline for Group CEO as well as variable compensation follow the mandate from the Remuneration Committee and Long Term Incentive Plan Committee (LTIP Committee). The incentive plan determined by LTIP Committee lay out the performance metrics, amount of share bonus, performance period and conditions as well as vesting time.

For Group CEO, the share bonus in 2025 were determined by the LTIP Committee. Up until 2020, Mr. Thapana Sirivadhanabhakdi as the person who initiated the program and serves on the committee voluntarily declined to participate and accept the shares to avoid conflict of interest. Starting from 2021, the share bonus to the Group CEO was granted by the LTIP Committee with full acknowledgement of his commitment to protect against the conflict of interest. The share grant to Group CEO is linked to highly ambitious strategic goals and are administered as shadow or synthetic shares. Performance condition for Group CEO is set as for subsequent financial year and PASSION 2030 goals. Therefore, the longest performance period for the 2025 grant for Group CEO is 5 years. The vesting period for Group CEO is determined to be 5 years with clawback provisions in line with LTIP.

For Product Group CEOs, the share amount granted are determined from 2 performance years, where thereafter the shares are vested over the span of 5 years with clawback provision based on pre-defined targets. As a result of performance condition and clawback, the final amount for Product Group CEOs range from 0% to 120% of the initial grant.

The proportion of deferred bonus in 2025 as percentage of total bonus for the Group CEO is 20% and 18% for Product Group CEOs.

ThaiBev have a corporate governance system with the aim to ensure that we are managed in the interests of its shareholders and other stakeholders. We commit to align the interests of the shareholders with the management of the company. As ThaiBev extended a new Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) to replace the expired Long Term Incentive Plan, according to shareholders’ approval at the annual general meeting, additional guidelines were considered by the Long Term Incentive Committee (LTIP Committee) and adopted to ensure that long term incentive program help drive the company performance towards our PASSION 2030 goals and beyond. The LTIP Committee has the authority to consider and determine the matters related to the Long Term Incentive Plan, including the eligibility of participants, conditions or criteria for granting awards, administration, cancellation of the Long Term Incentive Plan within a maximum period of 5 years from the date of project commencement, and any alteration to the Long Term Incentive Plan.

As he currently holds 107 million shares since the incorporation of the company or 29.49 times his current annual salary base, it is considered that such target has been well achieved.
