(e) On February 28, 2011 the Compensation Committee of Monotype Imaging Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) approved payments under the Company’s 2010 Executive Incentive Compensation Program (the “2010 Bonus Plan” ), payable upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the 2010 Bonus Plan, to Douglas J. Shaw, President and Chief Executive Officer, Scott E. Landers, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, John L. Seguin, Executive Vice President, Janet M. Dunlap, Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, and John H. McCallum, Vice President and General Manager, Creative Professional, of $307,344, $182,555, $212,953, $143,244, and £74,675, respectively.

On February 28, 2011, the Compensation Committee also approved awards of non-qualified stock options under the Company’s 2007 Stock Option and Incentive Plan to Mr. Shaw, Mr. Landers, Mr. Seguin, Ms. Dunlap, and Mr. McCallum of 85,000, 30,000, 33,000, 18,000, and 13,000 shares, respectively. Pursuant to the Company’s Equity Award Grant Policy, such awards will be granted to the employee on the third business day following the filing of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, or if such date is not a day on which the NASDAQ Global Select Market is open for trading, then on the next such trading day (the “Grant Date”). The exercise price of the awards shall be equal to the closing market price on the NASDAQ Global Select Market of a share of the Company’s common stock on the Grant Date. In order to receive the award, the executive officer must be employed by the Company on the Grant Date. These awards are subject to time-based vesting, with 25% of the shares underlying each award vesting on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and the remaining shares vesting in equal quarterly installments over the following three years.

Also on February 28, 2011, the Compensation Committee approved awards of restricted common stock under the Company’s 2007 Stock Option and Incentive Plan to Mr. Shaw, Mr. Landers, Mr. Seguin, Ms. Dunlap, and Mr. McCallum of 28,000, 10,000, 11,000, 6,000, and 5,000 shares, respectively. These awards will also be granted to the employee on the Grant Date and the fair market value of a share of restricted Common Stock shall be equal to the closing market price on the NASDAQ Global Select Market of a share of the Company’s Common Stock on the Grant Date. The shares of restricted Common Stock shall be issued to each such individual with no payment by such individual for the shares and are subject to time-based vesting, with 25% of the shares underlying each award vesting on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and the remaining shares vesting in equal quarterly installments over the following three years.

Finally, on February 28, 2011, the Compensation Committee approved the Company’s 2011 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2011 Bonus Plan”) and established awards that may be earned for fiscal 2011 under the 2011 Bonus Plan by Mr. Shaw, Mr. Landers, Mr. Seguin, Ms. Dunlap, and Mr. McCallum, and other officers approved by the Compensation Committee for participation in the 2011 Bonus Plan (each, a “Participant”). A Participant may receive a cash bonus payment under the 2011 Bonus Plan based upon the attainment of performance targets that are established by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee and may relate to financial measures with respect to the Company, as well as individual performance goals (collectively, the “Performance Goals”) and a Participant’s overall performance. No cash bonuses under the 2011 Bonus Plan shall be paid to Participants unless and until the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee makes a determination with respect to the attainment of the Performance Goals. The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors retain the right to amend, alter or terminate the 2011 Bonus Plan at any time. The above description of the 2011 Bonus Plan is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the 2011 Bonus Plan itself, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
