Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers |
The shareholders of SiriusPoint Ltd. (the "Company") approved the SiriusPoint Ltd. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2023 Plan") at the Company's annual general meeting of shareholders on June 1, 2023 (the "Annual Meeting"). The Company's Board of Directors (the "Board"), upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board, previously approved the 2023 Plan, subject to shareholder approval. Additional information regarding the results of the Annual Meeting is set forth below in this Report under Item 5.07.
The purposes of the 2023 Plan are to promote the interests of the Company and its shareholders by (i) attracting and retaining executive personnel and other key employees and directors of outstanding ability; (ii) motivating executive personnel and other key employees and directors by means of performance-related incentives, to achieve longer-range performance goals; and (iii) enabling such individuals to participate in the long-term growth and financial success of the Company.
Under the 2023 Plan, the Company may grant: (i) performance awards; (ii) restricted shares; (iii) restricted share units; (iv) incentive share options; (v) non-qualified share options; (vi) share appreciation rights; (vii) deferred share units; (viii) other share-based awards; and (ix) dividend equivalents. Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2023 Plan, the number of common shares of the Company (“Shares”) initially available for all awards, other than substitute awards, will be the number of Shares that were available for awards under the SiriusPoint Ltd. 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan as of the effective date of the 2023 Plan. The 2023 Plan’s share limit will be reduced by the aggregate number of Shares which become subject to outstanding awards.
The foregoing description of the 2023 Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the 2023 Plan, which is attached as Appendix B to the Company's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on April 21, 2023 (the "Proxy Statement") and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 10.1
