('Design Group' or the 'Company')
Grant of LTIP Award
IG Design Group plc (AIM: IGR) announces that on 16th June 2026, Gerald Kuehr, Chief Executive Officer [Designate] of the Company, was granted a nil cost option award under the IG Design Group 2022 Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") over 2,492,848 ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares").
In order to be eligible to receive this award Mr Kuehr has designated his recently acquired personal holding of 1,246,424 Ordinary Shares as related 'investment shares'.
The award has an associated normal vesting date of the third anniversary. The award will ordinarily vest subject to Mr Kuehr's continued service through to the award's normal vesting and to the extent to which award's performance conditions are met.
The stretching performance conditions attached to the award relate to 'end share price' as at the end of a three year performance period commencing on the date of the grant of the award. The following sliding scale target and associated vesting percentage apply:
End share price
Percentage of award capable of vesting
Less than 90 pence
Nil
90 pence
25%
Between 90 pence and 300 pence
Between 25% and 100% on a straight-line basis
300 pence or greater
100%
End share price for such purposes means the average of the closing prices of Ordinary Shares for the dealing days falling within the last three months of the performance period subject to such adjustment (if any) the Remuneration Committee of the Board considers warranted to have regard to the value of dividends declared in respect of Ordinary Shares with record dates arising during the performance period.
A post vesting holding period will ordinarily apply in relation to the award through until the fourth anniversary of the grant of the award, following the expiry of which, the award will then become exercisable to its vested extent.
The Remuneration Committee retains a general discretion to reduce the award by reference to the number (if any) of Mr Kuehr's investment shares that are not retained through the award's three year time vesting period. The general expectation is for Mr Kuehr to maintain the holding of investment throughout such period.
