Martynas Gedaminskas, Chief Executive Officer of Via Lietuva.

The Board of the Company elects, removes and dismisses the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, determines his remuneration, approves his job description, provides incentives for him and imposes penalties on him (Article 37(3) of the Law on Companies).

Functions of the Director

The functions and responsibilities of the Chief Executive Officer are laid down in the Articles of Association of the public limited liability company Via Lietuva AB approved by 5 December 2022 Order No. 3-550 of the Minister of Transport and Communications of the Republic of Lithuania, the job description of the Chief Executive Officer approved by 2 February 2023 Minutes No. VD-11 of the Meeting of the Board and other legal acts of the Republic of Lithuania.

Remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer

The principles of remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer of Via Lietuva AB and the conditions of remuneration for his work are determined in accordance with the remuneration policy approved by 2 February 2023 Minutes No. VD-11 of the Meeting of the Board and other documents of the remuneration system agreed with the Board.

The remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer consists of a fixed component (PAD) and a variable component (KAD).

PAD relates to the level of the post, which reflects the “weight and value” of the post within the Company. The position of the Chief Executive Officer, like all other positions in Via Lietuva AB, has been evaluated by Korn Ferry Hay’s Job Mapping method and has been assigned HAY level 23.

Via Lietuva AB annually participates in a salary market survey of companies operating in Lithuania that have implemented the same international Korn Ferry Hay methodology for the structure of job grades. Following the results of the survey, and taking into account the median salaries in this market, the company’s PAD ranges are determined annually and approved by the Board.

The KAD may be paid once a year for performance during the calendar year, taking into account the achievement of the objectives set for the Chief Executive Officer. The specific performance targets and their comparative weights and the results to be achieved (the indicators to be measured) are set by the Board of the Company on an annual basis. The amount of the KAD for the Chief Executive Officer is set as a percentage of the PAD for the period for which the KAD is paid, up to 25%. At the end of the year, the Board approves the results of the achievement of the afore-mentioned objectives and the possibility of paying the KAD.

REGEN RBR
REGEN RBR has developed a low-cost and highly effective method to devulcanize end-of-life tire rubber and other waste rubber. By devulcanizing the rubber, REGEN RBR converts waste into valuable and desirable polymer products. Its “devulcanization” process reverses the original vulcanization process by selectively breaking sulfur bonds without degrading rubber quality. 

REGEN RBR’s mission is to help solve the global tire disposal problem. Each year, more than 1.5 billion tires reach the end of their life. Most are incinerated or landfilled because they cannot be effectively recycled, which wastes a valuable resource and creates a major global environmental problem impacting land, water, and air.
