Windfall Shares

Shares given without charge to the owners of a mutually-owned company when that company is in the process of demutualizing. Because the owners will no longer be the owners when the company demutualizes, windfall shares are designed to compensate them for their previous ownership. This is intended to encourage goodwill. It also gives the former owners a continued stake in the company.
