(the "Company" or the "Group")

 

 Grant of Options

 

The Property Franchise Group, one of the UK's largest property franchises, announces that it has granted options over new ordinary shares in the Company to certain of its management team under the Company's new TPFG Share Option Plan.  These awards recognise each of their roles in developing and implementing the Company's strategic plans and are designed to continue to incentivise them appropriately.

 

The awards will be subject to the growth in the Company's basic earnings per share, excluding exceptional income/costs and share based payments ("adjusted EPS") over the 3 years to 31 December 2019. Adjusted EPS growth of 15% over the period will be required for threshold vesting of the awards, with adjusted EPS growth of 44% or higher required for all of the awards to vest. There will be a straight line sliding scale between these two points. None of the awards will vest for adjusted EPS growth below 15% over the period.

 

The maximum awards are stated below.
