Notice regarding Long Term Retention Plan for Certain Executives

 

 

Cosan Limited Establishes Long Term Retention Plan for Certain Executives  

 

In November 2016, Cosan Limited (the “Company”) established a Long Term Retention Plan, or the “Plan”, aimed at rewarding and retaining certain high-level executives of strategic importance to the Company who may be granted certain share based awards as may be determined by our board of directors. The creation of the Plan was motivated by the recognition of the importance that certain top-level executives have to the Company, of the need to reward such executives appropriately and of providing them with incentives to continue performing at a high level in order to avoid any such executives leaving the Company. Participation in the Plan is subject to selection by our board of directors.

 

Initially, four key executives, Messrs. Marcos Lutz, Marcelo Martins, Marcelo Portela and Burkhard Otto Cordes will each be eligible to receive share grants of up to 1% each of our issued share capital over the course of the next 10 years. We expect that the first grant of shares under the Plan will occur by the end of 2016.

 

The executives who participate in the Plan have entered into a Terms of Governance between themselves and the Company which will regulate their rights, privileges, protections and obligations as shareholders of the Company should our chairman, Rubens Ometto Silveira Mello, no longer be with the Company.
