Mirriad Advertising plc

("Mirriad" or the "Company")

LTIP option awards and PDMR dealings

Mirriad Advertising plc, the leading in-content advertising company, announces that, under the terms of the Company's long-term incentive plan ("LTIP"), a total of 25,687,322 options over Ordinary Shares of GBP0.00001 each in the Company (the "Options") were granted on 19 July 2023 to a director, senior managers and employees, as detailed below.

The Options consist of three grants:

1. New three year Options granted to Mirriad's three senior executives: the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), the General Manager (GM) of North America and the Chief Technology Officer (CTO). These have been issued at a strike price of 3p each (equivalent to the price of the recent placing and open offer). The Options will vest annually over three years;

2. Grants to the same three senior executives in return for agreeing to one-off 12 month salary cuts of 10%, in the case of the CEO, and 5% for the GM North America and CTO respectively. In the case of the CEO and the CTO these Options will have a strike price equivalent to the nominal value of the Company's ordinary shares(GBP0.00001). For the GM North America these Options have a strike price of 3p as the personal tax treatment of nominal value options differs in the US . All these Options have a one year vesting period; and

3. Grants to certain other senior managers some of whom are regarded as PDMRs. These grants continue the programme of annual Option grants to senior managers which commenced in 2022. These Options have a strike price of 3p and vest after two years.
