Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Assignment Agreement 

 

On March 4, 2015, FestreamTV, Corp. (“FestreamTV”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Loton, Corp (the “Company”), entered into an assignment agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) with Bulldog DM, LLC (“Bulldog”). Pursuant to the terms of the Assignment Agreement, FestreamTV will assume Bulldog’s rights and interests in and to various agreements under which Bulldog provides live, digital streaming of music festivals (the “Rights Agreements”). FestreamTV has the right to choose a minimum of seven Rights Agreements under which it will succeed Bulldog. In exchange, FestreamTV will pay Bulldog’s 2014 payroll taxes in the amount of $4,664 (the “Payroll Taxes”), as well as its ongoing operating expenses, not to exceed $2,500 per month. In addition, if FestreamTV meets certain benchmarks relating to the Rights Agreements, FestreamTV will assume up to $60,000 in existing liabilities of Bulldog (including the Payroll Taxes).

 

The foregoing description of the Assignment Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of the Assignment Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.

 

John Petrocelli Employment Agreement

 

On March 4, 2015, FestreamTV entered into an employment agreement with John Petrocelli pursuant to which Mr. Petrocelli will serve as President of FestreamTV. Mr. Petrocelli will lead FestreamTV’s digital agency, streaming music content business, and production team in collaboration with the Company’s management and the Board of Directors of FestreamTV.

 

Mr. Petrocelli’s employment agreement is effective immediately and continues through March 3, 2017. Mr. Petrocelli will initially receive a monthly base salary of $7,500, which may be increased if FestreamTV reaches certain milestones relating to the Rights Agreements. These contingent increases could enable Mr. Petrocelli to receive an annual base salary of up to $250,000. In addition, Mr. Petrocelli is entitled to receive a restricted stock grant of 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company, which will vest, one-third at a time, upon the occurrence of certain milestones relating to the Rights Agreements. Upon a “change of control” of the Company, the vesting of any portion of Mr. Petrocelli’s restricted stock grant then unvested will immediately accelerate in full. Mr. Petrocelli will also be eligible to receive an annual discretionary incentive bonus of up to the full amount of his salary.

 

Mr. Petrocelli’s employment agreement provides that, upon the termination of his employment by FestreamTV without “cause,” FestreamTV will make a severance payment to Mr. Petrocelli equal to the salary he would have earned had he not been terminated, until the earlier of one year or the end of the term of the agreement, subject to his execution of a timely general release.

 

Mr. Petrocelli is the founder of Bulldog, a digital agency engaged in live event streaming and content experiences, with a core emphasis on the live music industry.

 

The foregoing description of Mr. Petrocelli’s employment agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Mr. Petrocelli’s employment agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2.
