(MEET) CEO Trades Under 10b5-1 Plan

MeetMe, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEET), the public market leader for social discovery, today announced that in accordance with a previously adopted stock-trading plan, Geoffrey Cook, Chief Executive Officer, has sold 30,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Mr. Cook had previously established the stock-trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Company’s insider trading policy.

Mr. Cook entered into the plan as part of his personal financial planning strategy of asset diversification. It provides for periodic sales of the Company’s common stock (subject to various price thresholds) over the course of this calendar year, up to a maximum of 480,000 shares. If all of the shares subject to the trading plan were sold, Mr. Cook would retain approximately 80 percent of his current holdings (including stock options exercisable within 60 days of today).

Rule 10b5-1 plans allow corporate officers and directors to adopt written, pre-arranged stock trading plans when they are not in possession of material, non-public information. Such plans typically establish parameters for future stock transactions to take place automatically. Transactions under the plan are disclosed publicly through filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
