Growth Share Scheme
The Mission Marketing Group plc ('the missiontm' or "the Company", AIM: TMMG), the marketing communications and advertising group, announces the formation of a new management retention and incentive scheme, as communicated in the Company's trading update of 19 January 2017.
The Growth Share Scheme Arrangement (the "Scheme") has been designed to further increase cross-selling incentives between the missiontm's agencies and focus on driving the group forward and increasing shareholder value. The Scheme has been designed to retain and incentivise those key people who it is believed will be crucial to the missiontm's long term ambitions, and only has value to the participants if the share price of the Company increases substantially.
The Scheme
Under the Scheme, individuals are invited to subscribe for shares in The Mission Marketing Holdings Limited ("A Shares"). These shares are subscribed for at a nominal value of 0.01p per A Share and will only have a material value if the Company's share price equals or exceeds 75p for at least 15 days over the next three years* ("Vesting Conditions"). If the Vesting Conditions are met the individuals will be entitled to exchange their A Shares for an equivalent number of Ordinary Shares of 10p each in the Capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). The A Shares have no value if the Vesting Conditions are not met. 
To achieve the Vesting Conditions, the share price of the Company needs to increase by 83% from its current level, representing an increase in market capitalisation of approximately 29m. Under the Scheme, the A Shares would have an aggregate value at this level of approximately 4.3m and would be exchanged for 5,720,176 Ordinary Shares. The total number of Ordinary Shares under the Scheme and under existing options schemes is 8.36m, representing 9.9% of the issued Ordinary Share capital.
In total, 5,720,171 A Shares were subscribed for on 21 February 2017 (the "Award") by a limited number of board members and non-PDMR key managers. The subscription details for board members of the missiontm are detailed below.

* The Vesting Conditions require the closing market value of the Company to equal or exceed 75p per share over 15 consecutive dealing days at any time between 21 February 2017 and a date 60 days after the day on which the Company's financial results for the year ending 31 December 2019 have been announced. If the Vesting Conditions are not met by this date, the A Shares will lapse and the Company will acquire each participant's aggregate holding for 1.
David Morgan, Chairman, commented: "the missiontm already has an unrivalled record in retention of its senior management and the Scheme has been designed to retain by reward those key people over the coming years who it is believed will be crucial to its long term ambitions."
