TFSM 24/7 Real Media (MM)

WPP Group plc (NASDAQGS:WPPGY) (LSE:WPP.L) (�WPP�) announced today the successful completion of its tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of common stock of 24/7 Real Media, Inc. (NASDAQ:TFSM) (�24/7 Real Media�) at a price of $11.75 per share in cash. The offer expired at midnight, New York City time, at the end of Wednesday, June 27, 2007, at which time a total of 47,687,050 shares of 24/7 Real Media, including 4,050,879 shares tendered under guaranteed delivery procedures, had been tendered and not withdrawn, representing approximately 92.6% (including approximately 7.9% tendered under guaranteed delivery procedures) of the outstanding 24/7 Real Media common stock. All shares that were validly tendered and not withdrawn have been accepted for payment in accordance with the terms of the tender offer. As of 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on June 28, 2007, TS Transaction Inc. will commence a subsequent offering period for all remaining shares of 24/7 Real Media common stock that have not yet been tendered. This subsequent offering period will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Friday, July 6, 2007, unless extended. During this subsequent offering period, 24/7 Real Media stockholders who did not previously tender their shares into the offer may do so and will promptly receive the same $11.75 per share cash consideration paid during the initial offering period. The procedures for tendering shares during the subsequent offering period are the same as during the initial offering period, except that (i) the guaranteed delivery procedures may not be used during the subsequent offering period and (ii) shares tendered during the subsequent offering period may not be withdrawn. After expiration of the subsequent offering period, as the same may be extended, WPP, through its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, TS Transaction, Inc., intends to acquire all of the remaining outstanding shares of 24/7 Real Media common stock by means of a merger under Delaware law. The merger will take place as soon as practicable following the receipt of approval of the merger from the Korea Fair Trade Commission. That approval is currently expected to be received on or about July 13, 2007. WPP urges the stockholders of 24/7 Real Media to tender their shares into the subsequent offering period so that they may receive payment of the $11.75 per share cash offer price on an expedited basis rather than waiting for the merger to close. In the merger, each outstanding share of 24/7 Real Media common stock (other than restricted shares and shares as to which the holder has properly exercised appraisal rights) will be converted into the right to receive $11.75 per share in cash, without interest. Shares of 24/7 Real Media that are restricted shares will be converted into an appropriately adjusted number of restricted ordinary shares or restricted American depositary shares of WPP, which will be subject to the same contractual restrictions as the restricted shares from which they were converted. Following the merger, 24/7 Real Media common stock will no longer be traded on the Nasdaq. About WPP WPP is one of the world�s leading communications services groups.
