** Maximum number of Units granted to each beneficiary. The underlying shares that will be assigned without consideration may vary according to whether and the degree to which the EPS target set by the Board of Directors has been achieved.
In accordance with the Performance Shares Plan 2013-2017 Regulations, each Unit gives the right to receive one Luxottica Group ordinary share without consideration at the end of a three-year period, subject to the achievement of certain aggregate Group consolidated EPS targets for the fiscal year period of 2013 through 2015, as determined by the Board of Directors, solely for the purposes of this Plan. The terms of the Units awarded under the Plan are more fully described in the Board of Directors Report for the April 29, 2013 ordinary meeting of stockholders. The Board Report and additional information on the Plan are available from the Company’s website at www.luxottica.com.
Based on the official price of Euro 40.82 of the Company’s ordinary shares on the MTA (Milan Stock Exchange) on the date of grant, the estimated cost that the Company expects to incur in connection with the 2013 grants is approximately Euro 52.4 million.
