The Mission Marketing Group plc
LTIP awards
The Mission Marketing Group plc ("the Company" or 'the missiontm', AIM: TMMG), the marketing communications and advertising group, announces the following details of awards of nil-cost options under the TMMG Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP").
The Remuneration Committee of the TMMG Board ("RemCo") has today approved the grant of 1,040,000 new LTIP options to certain Directors and employees, representing 1.2% of the Company's current non-diluted issued share capital. The vesting of these LTIP options is dependent upon achieving levels of profit growth over the three year period of the options, with a sliding scale of vesting dependent upon the level of growth. Maximum vesting will be triggered by compound profit growth of 10% pa or more.
Separately, RemCo has today judged that the profit performance in relation to LTIP options granted in 2013, which were dependent upon profits over the three year period ended on 31 December 2015, was insufficient for those awards to vest when they reach maturity in July 2016. As a consequence, all of the LTIP options granted in 2013 have lapsed.
The following table sets out a summary of the LTIPs awarded to Directors and their resultant holdings:
| Existing LTIP options | New LTIP options | Lapsed options | Total LTIP options |

Dylan Bogg | 99,500 | 35,000 | (30,000) | 104,500 |

Robert Day | 216,667 | 50,000 | (110,000) | 156,667 |
Peter Fitzwilliam | 100,000 | 25,000 | (50,000) | 75,000 |
Chris Goodwin | 72,500 | 25,000 | (35,000) | 62,500 |
Giles Lee | 222,000 | 50,000 | (70,000) | 202,000 |
David Morgan | 100,000 | 20,000 | (50,000) | 70,000 |
Chris Morris | 100,000 | 20,000 | (50,000) | 70,000 |
Sue Mullen | 42,500 | 20,000 | (22,500) | 40,000 |
Fiona Shepherd | 110,000 | 50,000 | (50,000) | 110,000 |
The resulting total number of LTIP options in issue following today's grants and lapsing of the 2013 LTIPs is 2,770,000, representing 3.3% of the Company's issued share capital.
The vesting of LTIP options may be satisfied by ordinary shares held by the The Mission Marketing Group Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT") and/or through the issue of new shares. As previously notified, the Directors would prefer to satisfy LTIP commitments by transferring shares held by the EBT rather than diluting all shareholders through the issue of new ordinary shares. The Trustees of the EBT make periodic share purchases as they deem appropriate and, as at the current date, hold 1,418,206 ordinary shares, representing approximately 1.7% of the issued share capital of the Company.
