This Employment Agreement (“Agreement”), effective August 25, 2011, is entered into by and between Augme Technologies, Inc. (“the Company”), a Delaware corporation, (the ‘Employer” or the “Company”), and Xxxx Xxxxxxx (the “Employee”).
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Employer is engaged in the interactive media technology business and related businesses, including but not limited to Internet and mobile communications advertising services, hardware and software development and sales, and information technology (the “Technologies”); and conducts research, experimentation, development, and exploitation of related technologies and engages in other businesses; and
WHEREAS, Employer desires to employ Employee to serve as President of the Company, and Employee desires to be employed by Employer in such capacity pursuant to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises and covenants herein contained, it is agreed as follows:
1. EMPLOYMENT: DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Employer hereby employs Employee as President of the Company. Subject at all times to the direction of the Chief Executive Officer and the Board of Directors of the Employer, Employee’s responsibilities shall include supervision of the overall operations of the Company and engaging in public relations on behalf of the Company, and such other duties as the Chief Executive Officer and the Board of Directors may prescribe from time to time. Employee’s job sites shall be in the Kirkland, Washington metropolitan area. Employee shall serve, by mutual consent, in such other positions and offices of the Employer and its affiliates, if selected, without any additional compensation.
Employee shall confer with the Directors and other officers of the Company regarding ideas and proposals with respect to the overall direction and operation of the Company.
2. FULL TIME EMPLOYMENT
Employee hereby accepts employment by Employer, upon the terms and conditions contained herein, and agrees that during the term of this Agreement the Employee shall devote substantially all of his business time, attention, and energies to the business of the Employer. Employee, during the term of this Agreement, will not perform any services for any other business entity, whether such entity conducts a business which is competitive with the business of Employer or is engaged in any other business activity; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall
be construed as (a) preventing Employee from investing his personal assets in any business or businesses which do not compete directly or indirectly with the Employer, provided such investment or investments do not require any services on his part in the operation of the affairs of the entity in which such investment is made and in which his participation is solely that of an investor, (b) preventing Employee from purchasing securities in any corporation whose securities are regularly traded, if such purchases shall not result in his owning beneficially, at any time, more than 5% of the equity securities of any corporation engaged in a business which is competitive, directly or indirectly, to that of Employer, (c) preventing Employee from (i) engaging in charitable activities, (ii) serving on corporate, advisory, civil or charitable boards or committees, or (iii) delivering lectures, or teaching at educational institutions, so long as such activities, individually or in aggregate, do not adversely affect the Employee’s performance of his duties hereunder, which determination shall be made at the discretion of the Board, or (d) engaging in any other activities, if he receives the prior written approval of the Board of Directors of the Company with respect to his engaging in such activities.
3. RECORDS
In connection with his engagement hereunder, Employee shall accurately maintain and preserve all notes and records generated by Employer which relate to Employer and its business and shall make all such reports, written if required, as Employer may reasonably require.
4. TERM
Employee’s employment hereunder shall be for three twelve month periods (the “Initial Term”), to commence on August 25, 2011 and end thirty-six months from the date of this Agreement. Thereafter, the Company may elect to extend employment to Employee for one or more additional twelve-month periods (the “Subsequent Term”), commencing thirty-six months from the date hereof. A twelve-month period shall be deemed a Contract Year. For all compensation and benefit purposes, other than those specifically addressed herein, the Employee shall be deemed to have been continually employed with the Employer from August 25, 2011.
5. SALARY
As full compensation (“Base Salary”) for the performance of his duties on behalf of Employer, Employee shall be compensated as follows:

effect on the renewal date; or b) as the Board of Directors shall determine if in excess of the Minimum Increase. Future salary increases will be subject to mutual agreement.

All systems, inventions, discoveries, apparatus, techniques, methods, know-how, formulae or improvements made, developed or conceived by Employee during Employee’s employment by Employer, whenever or wherever made, developed or conceived, and whether or not during business hours, which constitute an improvement, on those heretofore, now or at any time during Employee’s employment, developed, manufactured or used by Employer in connection with the manufacture, process or marketing of any product heretofore or now or hereafter developed or distributed by Employer, or any services to be performed by Employer or of any product which shall or could reasonably be manufactured or developed or marketed in the reasonable expansion of Employer’s business, shall be and continue to remain Employer’s exclusive property, without any added compensation or any reimbursement for expenses to Employee, and upon the conception of any and every such invention, process, discovery or improvement and without waiting to perfect or complete it, Employee promises and agrees that Employee will immediately disclose it to Employer and to no one else and thenceforth will treat it as the property and secret of Employer.
Employee will also execute any instruments requested from time to time by Employer to vest in it complete title and ownership to such invention, discovery or improvement and will, at the request of Employer, do such acts and execute such instruments as Employer may require, but at Employer’s expense to obtain Letters of Patent, trademarks or copyrights in the United States and foreign countries, for such invention, discovery or improvement and for the purpose of vesting title thereto in Employer, all without any reimbursement for expenses (except as provided in Section 7 or otherwise) and without any additional compensation of any kind to Employee.
Any assignment of Inventions required by this Agreement does not apply to an Invention for which no equipment, supplies, facility, intellectual property or trade secret information of Employer was used and which was developed entirely on the Employee’s own time, unless (a) the Invention relates (i) directly to the business of Employer or (ii) to Employer’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development or (b) the Invention results from any work performed by Employee for Employer.
11. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION and TRADE SECRETS
(i) All Confidential Information shall be the sole property of Employer. Employee will not, during the period of his employment and for a period ending two years after termination of his employment for any reason, disclose to any person or entity or use or otherwise
exploit for Employee’s own benefit or for the benefit of any other person or entity any Confidential Information which is disclosed to Employee or which becomes known to Employee in the course of his employment with Employer without the prior written consent of an officer of Employer except as may be necessary and appropriate in the ordinary course of performing his duties to Employer during the period of his employment with Employer. For purposes of this Section 11(i), “Confidential Information” shall mean any data or information belonging to Employer, other than Trade Secrets, that is of value to Employer and is not generally known to competitors of Employer or to the public, and is maintained confidential by Employer, including but not limited to non-public information about Employer’s clients, executives, key contractors and other contractors and information with respect to its products, designs, services, strategies, pricing, processes, procedures, research, development, inventions, improvements, purchasing, accounting, engineering and marketing (including any discussions or negotiations with any third parties). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no information will be deemed to be Confidential Information unless such information is treated by Employer as confidential and shall not include any data or information of Employer that has been voluntarily disclosed to the public by Employer (except where such public disclosure has been made without the authorization of Employer), or that has been independently developed and disclosed by others, or that otherwise enters the public domain through lawful means.
(ii) All Trade Secrets shall be the sole property of Employer. Employee agrees that during his employment with Employer and after its termination, Employee will keep in confidence and trust and will not use or disclose any Trade Secret or anything relating to any Trade Secret, or deliver any Trade Secret, to any person or entity outside Employer without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors. For purposes of this Section 11(ii), “Trade Secrets” shall mean any scientific, technical and non-technical data, information, formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique, drawing, process, financial data, financial plan, product plan or list of actual or potential customers or vendors and suppliers of Employer or any portion or part thereof, whether or not copyrightable or patentable, that is of value to Employer and is not generally known to competitors of Employer or to the public, and whose confidentiality is maintained, including unpatented and un-copyrighted information relating to Employer’s products, information concerning proposed new products or services, market feasibility studies, proposed or existing marketing techniques or plans and customer consumption data, usage or load data, and any other information that constitutes a trade secret, as such term as defined under New York law, in each case to the extent that Employer, as the context requires, derives economic value, actual or potential, from such information not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons or entities who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use.
12. NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES
During the term of Employee’s employment and for one year thereafter, Employee will not cause or attempt to cause any employee of Employer to cease working for Employer. However, this obligation shall not affect any responsibility Employee may have as an employee of Employer with respect to the bona fide hiring and firing of Employer’s personnel.
13. NON-SOLICITATION OF CUSTOMERS AND PROSPECTIVE CUSTOMERS
Employee will not, during the period of his employment and for a period ending one year after the termination of his employment for any reason, directly or indirectly, solicit the business of any customer for the purpose of, or with the intention of, selling or providing to such customer any product or service in competition with any product or service sold or provided by Employer during the 12 months immediately preceding the termination of Employee’s employment with Employer.
14. NON-COMPETITION
Employee agrees that during his employment with Employer, Employee will not engage in any employment, business, or activity that is in any way competitive with the business or proposed business of Employer, and Employee will not assist any other person or organization in competing with Employer or in preparing to engage in competition with the business or proposed business of Employer. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply both during normal working hours and at all other times including, without limitation, nights, weekends and vacation time, while Employee is employed with Employer.
15. TERMINATION
Employee’s employment with Employer may be terminated as follows:
(a) Termination Without Just Cause.
(i) Employer, in its sole discretion, may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder for any reason without Just Cause (as defined below), at any time, by giving written notice to Employee of such intent at least 30 days in advance of the effective date of termination; provided, during all that 30 day notice period, Employer, in its sole discretion, may modify, reduce or eliminate Employee’s duties hereunder.
(ii) If Employer terminates Employee’s employment hereunder without Just Cause Employer shall continue to pay to Employee his then-current base salary, in accordance with customary payroll practices, plus accrued but unpaid vacation time, accrued but unpaid benefits (as described in Section 8(i) above) and reimbursement of all unpaid business expenses (in each case, as of the date of termination) (collectively the “Continued Benefits”) for a period of the greater of (a) six months; or (b) the remainder of the Initial Term or Subsequent Term, whichever the case may be (the “Continuation Period”). Employee shall be entitled to continued participation in all medical and disability plans, to the extent such plans are provided by Employer, on the same terms and conditions as if his employment had not terminated until the expiration of the Continuation Period. Further, Employee shall be entitled to exercise any unvested stock option rights and stock purchase rights granted to him and outstanding at the effective date of the termination of this Agreement.
(b) Termination With Just Cause.
(i) Employer may immediately terminate Employee’s employment hereunder for Just Cause (as defined below) at any time upon delivery of written notice to Employee.
(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, the phrase “Just Cause” means: (A) Employee’s material fraud, gross malfeasance, gross negligence, or willful misconduct done in bad faith, with respect to Employer’s business affairs; (B) Employee’s refusal or repeated failure to follow Employer’s established reasonable and lawful policies; (C) Employee’s material breach of this Agreement; or (D) Employee’s conviction of a felony or crime involving moral turpitude. A termination of Employee for Just Cause based on clause (A), (B) or (C) of the preceding sentence will take effect 30 days after Employer gives written notice of its intent to terminate Employee’s employment and Employer’s description of the alleged cause, unless Employee, in the good-faith opinion of Employer, during such 30-day period, remedies the events or circumstances constituting Just Cause.
(iii) If Employee’s employment hereunder is terminated by Employer for Just Cause, Employer will be required to pay to Employee only that portion of his Base Salary, accrued but unused vacation pay, and to the extent required under the terms of any benefit plan or this Agreement, the vested portion of any benefit under such plan, all as earned through the date of termination, including, without limitation, the right to exercise any vested stock option rights and stock purchase rights granted to him and outstanding at the effective date of the termination of this Agreement.
(c) For Good Reason.
(i) Employee may terminate employment hereunder For Good Reason (as defined below), at any time, by giving written notice to Employer of such intent at least 30 days in advance of the effective date of termination.
(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, the phrase “For Good Reason” means (A) any material reduction in Employee’s duties, responsibility, position or compensation, without the consent of Employee; (B) relocation of the Employee’s position from the Kirkland, Washington metropolitan area; (C) Employer’s material breach of this Agreement; or (D) Employer’s refusal or failure to establish and follow lawful policies and practices that are material to Employee’s position or job responsibilities.
(iii) If Employee terminates employment hereunder For Good Reason, Employer shall continue to pay to Employee the Continued Benefits for the Continuation Period. Employee shall be entitled to continued participation in all medical and disability plans, to the extent such plans are provided by Employer, at the same benefit level at which he was participating on the date of termination of the Employee’s employment until the expiration of the Continuation Period. Further, Employee shall be entitled to exercise any unvested stock option rights and stock purchase rights granted to him and outstanding at the effective date of the termination of this Agreement.
(d) Without Good Reason.
(i) Employee may terminate employment hereunder without Good Reason, at any time, by giving written notice to Employer of such intent at least 30 days in advance of the effective date of termination.
(ii) If Employee terminates employment hereunder without Good Reason, Employer will be required to pay to Employee only that portion of his Base Salary, accrued but unused vacation pay, and to the extent required under the terms of any benefit plan or this Agreement, the vested portion of any benefit under such plan, all as earned through the date of termination, including, without limitation, the right to exercise any vested stock option rights and stock purchase rights granted to him and outstanding at the effective date of the termination of this Agreement.
(e) Disability and Death.
Employee’s employment hereunder will be terminated immediately upon his Disability (as defined below) or his death. If Employee’s employment is terminated due to such disability or death, Employer will be required to pay to Employee or Employee’s estate, as the case may be, unrelated to any amounts that Employee may receive pursuant to Employer’s short-term and long-term disability plans or life insurance plans (as applicable), only his base salary and accrued but unpaid vacation pay, earned through the date of termination, and to the extent required under the terms of any benefit plan or this Agreement, the vested portion of any benefit under such plan. Employee or Employee’s estate, as the case may be, will not by operation of this provision forfeit any rights in which Employee is vested at the time of Employee’s disability or death, including, without limitation, the right to exercise any vested stock option rights and stock purchase rights granted to him and outstanding at the effective date of the termination of this Agreement.
The term “Disability” means Employee’s inability, due to physical or mental ill health, to perform the essential functions of his job, with or without a reasonable accommodation, for a period in excess of 120 consecutive days or in excess of 180 days in any consecutive 12 month period. In the event of any dispute under this paragraph, Employee shall submit to a physical and/or psychological examination by a licensed physician mutually satisfactory to Employer and Employee, the cost of such examination to be paid by Employer, and the determination of such physician shall be determinative.
16. INJUNCTION
(i) Should Employee at any time reveal, or threaten to reveal, any Confidential Information or Trade Secret of Employer, or during any restricted period engage, or threaten to engage, in any business in competition with that of Employer, or perform, or threaten to perform, any services for anyone engaged in such competitive business, or in any way violate, or threaten to violate, any of the provisions of this Agreement, Employer shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Employee from doing, or continuing to do, or performing any such acts; and Employee
hereby consents to the issuance of such an injunction without any requirement that Employer post a bond.
(ii) In the event that a proceeding is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Paragraph, Employee shall not argue as a defense that there is an adequate remedy at law, nor shall Employer be prevented from seeking any other remedies which may be available.
(iii) The existence of any claim or cause of action by Employer against Employee, or by Employee against Employer, whether predicated upon this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Employer of the foregoing restrictive covenants but shall be litigated separately.
17. ARBITRATION
(i) In the event that there shall be a dispute (a “Dispute”) among the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, the parties agree that such dispute shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration before a single arbitrator in the metropolitan area in which the Employee was primarily performing services at the time the Dispute arose, administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), in accordance with AAA’s Employment ADR Rules. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding upon the parties, and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction by either of the parties. The arbitrator shall have the power to grant temporary, preliminary and permanent relief, including without limitation, injunctive relief and specific performance.
(ii) The Company will pay the direct costs and expenses of the arbitration, including arbitration and arbitrator fees. Except as otherwise provided by statute, Employee and the Company are responsible for their respective attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with enforcing this Agreement. Employee and the Company agree that, to the extent permitted by law, the arbitrator may, in his or her discretion, award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party.
18. SECTION 409A COMPLIANCE
(i) This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”). To the extent that any provision in this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A, the provision shall be read in such a manner so that no payments due under this Agreement shall be subject to an “additional tax” as defined in Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code. For purposes of Section 409A, each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. In no event may Employee, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Employee shall not be considered to have terminated employment with Employer for purposes of Section 15 hereof unless he would be considered to have incurred a “termination of employment” from Employer within the meaning of Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(h)(1)(ii).
(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if necessary to comply with the restriction in Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) concerning payments to “specified employees,” any payment on account of Employee’s separation from service that would otherwise be due hereunder within six months after such separation shall nonetheless be delayed until the first business day of the seventh month following Employee’s date of termination and the first such payment shall include the cumulative amount of any payments that would have been paid prior to such date if not for such restriction, together with interest on such cumulative amount during the period of such restriction at a rate, per annum, equal to the applicable federal short-term rate (compounded monthly) in effect under Section 1274(d) of the Code on the date of termination. For purposes of Section 15 hereof, Employee shall be a “specified employee” for the 12-month period beginning on the first day of the fourth month following each “Identification Date” if he is a “key employee” (as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code without regard to Section 416(i)(5) thereof) of Employer at any time during the 12-month period ending on the “Identification Date.” For purposes of the foregoing, the Identification Date shall be December 31.”
(iii) All reimbursements provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during Employee’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (iv) the right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
19. MISCELLANEOUS
If any provision of this Agreement shall be declared, by a court of competent jurisdiction, to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced in whole or in part, the remaining conditions and provisions or portions thereof shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and enforceable to the extent they are valid, legal and enforceable, and no provision shall be deemed dependent upon any covenant or provision so expressed herein.
The parties hereto have made no agreements, representations or warranties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement which are not set forth herein. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, supplemented, waived, or changed orally, but only in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, waiver, or modification is sought and making specific reference to this Agreement.
The rights, benefits, duties and obligations under this Agreement shall inure to, and be binding upon, the Employer, its successors and assigns, and upon the Employee and his legal representatives, heirs and legatees. This Agreement constitutes a personal service agreement, and the
performance of the Employee’s obligations hereunder may not be transferred or assigned by the Employee.
The failure of either party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of future compliance therewith, and said terms, conditions and provisions shall remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement, on the part of either party, shall be effective for any purpose whatsoever unless such waiver is in writing and signed by such party.
This Agreement shall be construed and governed by the laws of the State of New York.
