SAP Supervisory Board Proposes Changes to the Executive Compensation System

The SAP Supervisory Board has proposed changes to the executive compensation system, addressing investor feedback. Points addressed in the proposal include: increased alignment of pay for performance, expanded non-financial indicators in both the short-term incentive and long-term incentive, lowered caps, and increased share ownership guidelines. Shareholders’ approval will be sought for the new system at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. Further details will be published at https://www.sap.com/agm in late March.

Note to holders of SAP ADRs (American Depositary Receipts):

One SAP ADR represents one SAP SE share. The final dividend amount per ADR is dependent upon the euro/US dollar exchange rate. Since SAP SE pays cash dividends on the ordinary shares in euro, the exchange rate fluctuations will affect the US dollar amounts received by holders of ADRs. The final dividend payment by SAP SE to the depositary bank is scheduled for May 16, 2023. The depositary bank will then convert the dividend payment from euro into US dollars as promptly as practicable.
