The Interpublic Group 2014 Performance Incentive Plan
On May 22, 2014, at the annual meeting of shareholders of The Interpublic Group of Companies, Inc. ("IPG," "Interpublic" or the "Company"), Interpublic's shareholders approved The Interpublic Group 2014 Performance Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The Company's Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of its Compensation and Leadership Talent Committee (the "Committee"), approved the Plan on March 27, 2014, subject to the approval of Interpublic's shareholders.  The Plan replaces the 2009 Performance Incentive Plan (the "2009 PIP") as Interpublic's incentive compensation plan.
The number of IPG common shares available for grants of all equity awards under the Plan will be 28.75 million shares (subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, including any adjustment provisions). Upon approval of the Plan, any shares authorized but not subject to then-outstanding awards under the 2009 PIP were extinguished under the 2009 PIP.
A more detailed description of the Plan is contained in the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 11, 2014 (the "Proxy Statement"), under the heading "Item 4: Proposal to Adopt The Interpublic Group 2014 Performance Incentive Plan," which description is incorporated herein by reference and is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety to the full text of the Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
