Our survey is characterized by having the best market coverage in Estonia; the stability and representativeness of the sample; job classification by content, complexity and responsibility; also the quality and accuracy of the data, since all information sent to us goes through a thorough checking multiple times before adding it to the survey database. The process of gathering and analyzing clients’ data as well as presenting the reports is confidential and following best practices. The 2016 Top Executive Survey is the twenty-first consecutive survey which gives an overview of compensation levels, trends and practices for top executives in Estonia. In the context of this survey, the term “top executive” generally refers to individuals involved in the daily management of the organization’s affairs (e.g. the chairman of the executive board and members of the executive board). The chairman of the executive board is the chairman of the executive board/the organization’s CEO/the organization’s operations manager, who is responsible for the daily management of the organization. Members of the executive board often/primarily perform the daily duties of a manager in a certain area of responsibility (e.g. financial manager, production manager, etc.). In order to ensure that wage information is presented objectively, the wages of top executives who are also major shareholders or sole owners of an organization have not been taken into account. In order to gain the best possible overview of the market situation, Fontes has invited top executives from different industries and from companies with different turnovers, staffs, and origins of capital to participate in the survey. The top executive compensation information has been presented by groups that are formed according to the companies’ number of employees, turnover, origin of capital, and the executive’s scope of responsibilities. The survey presents the criteria for determining and paying the wages of chairmen of executive board and members of executive boards, as well as the components of the compensation packages. All the data provided is anonymous, and no indication is given of the composition or size of the compensation packages of any particular participant. Should you be interested in more detailed information, please contact us at Fontes. Fontes would like to extend its gratitude to all the chairmen of executive boards and executive board members who participated in and helped make this survey. Sincerely, Mattis Kirsipuu, Mall Peterson, Ilmar Põhjala, Irja Rae, Kristina Udras 2 Top Executive Compensation Survey: Estonia, 2016 SUMMARY Sample The 2016 Top Executive Compensation Survey sample includes data from 121 different organizations with 95 chairmen of the executive board and 116 members of the executive board. 56% of executives in the survey are responsible for the activity of one organization in Estonia. 56% of the sample is the same as last year, 44% if the organizations are new participants.

Executives who hold over a 5% share of the organization have been excluded from the survey. Salary and Compensation Data Gathering Salary data was gathered for top executive positions - chairmen of the executive board and members of the executive board. The data of 95 chairmen and 116 members of the board from 121 organizations and/or groups was collected during the survey process. Organizations with different revenue, number of employees and origin of capital are represented in the survey. The data was gathered from November to December 2016. Base salary and monthly incentive are based on the data from 2016; annual incentive and bonuses, however, are based on the payments made for 2015. Data Analysis The electronically gathered data was checked and aligned. Statistical data analysis was conducted with SPSS 20.0 and MS Excel 2013 software. To provide a better overview of the market situation and in order to simplify the use of the survey in as much as possible, we have divided the executives into groups based on sales revenue and number of employees. When the answers were submitted for statistical processing, usually the median value and/or the arithmetic average was calculated; for salary data other positional averages, such as the median, 10%, 90% deciles and 25%, 75% quartiles, were also used (see Appendix A - Terms). The percentages presented in the tables and graphs represent the weight of an answer among the total number of answers to the questions at hand (respondents who did not answer have not been taken into account). The salary information has been presented based on two principles: - to submit as much objective information as possible - to preserve the confidentiality of the information relating to the participating organizations. All numbers are presented in gross amounts and in EUR. The tables below illustrate the division of chairmen of executive boards and members of executive boards. 5 Top Executive Compensation Survey: Estonia, 2016 Table 1.

The survey provides the basic information for preparing fair and attractive compensation packages. However, Fontes does not recommend using this information verbatim. Any compensation package is influenced by many other factors aside from the size of the organization, such as the stage of development and different objectives the manager should be motivated to reach. The numbers and comparisons contained in this survey can help an organization to: position the top executive salary level on the Estonian salary market; benchmark the competitiveness of the top executive salary policy; forecast the salary of future periods; develop and adapt salary systems. When making salary comparisons it is recommended to review the results of all different salary tables (origin of capital, number of employees, sales revenue, responsibility, field of activity, level and function - for members of the board). The terms used in this survey have been defined and explained in (see Appendix A – Terms). 7 Top Executive Compensation Survey: Estonia, 2016 DESCRIPTION OF PARTICIPATING ORGANIZATIONS 95 chairmen and 116 members of executive boards from 121 organizations and/or groups participated in the survey.

The data regarding all participating executives have been analyzed and presented in consolidated tables and also by groups. Explanations to the tables Different types of pay have been described by several statistical values to show not only the average values but also the disparity of salaries below or above the median. Other statistical measures - (quartiles 25%, 75%) and deciles (10% and 90%) (see Appendix A - Terms) - help those top executives who are interested in salary levels considerably above or below the market average. In order to be objective and preserve anonymity, we have only presented information if there are the following number of respondents (in the case of chairmen of executive boards - chairmen of executive boards; in the case of the executive board members and managers - organizations): averages if there are a minimum of 5, quartiles if there are a minimum of 7, and deciles if there are a minimum of 10 results. In cases where there were an insufficient number of answers, there are dashes in the tables. The salary table presents the following monetary compensation parts: monthly base salary, monthly/quarterly incentives, monthly total cash, annual base salary, semi-annual and annual incentives as well as annual total cash (see Appendix A - Terms). The salary scheme in the salary table is calculated as follows: Monthly Base Salary + Monthly Incentives (average based on last 6 or 12 months) = Monthly Total Cash Monthly Total Cash *12 + Annual Incentives (for the past period) = Annual Total Cash It is important to note, however, that the numbers given in the rows of the salary tables have been calculated on the basis of different data and the values presented in columns cannot be added up. The salary tables have been calculated on the basis of salary data provided by 95 chairmen of executive boards and 116 members of executive boards. The abbreviation NoE in the table illustrates the number of chairmen of executive boards. The abbreviation NoE/NoO in the table illustrates the number of executive board members / the number of organizations. All salaries are in EUR and are gross amounts. 11 Top Executive Compensation Survey: Estonia, 2016 CHAIRMEN OF EXECUTIVE BOARDS, SALARY TABLES NB!
