Employee shall promptly and faithfully comply with all the rules and regulations of applicable governmental regulatory agencies and with the reasonable instructions, directions, requests, rules and regulations of the Company in connection with the performance of Employees duties. Employee acknowledges and agrees that she is an exempt employee under the Fair Labor Standards Act and under the Wage Orders of the California Industrial Welfare Commission and the regulations and judicial and administrative decisions interpreting and applying such laws.
2
The Parties acknowledge and agree that Employees services are expected to include services for or with respect to the Companys direct and indirect subsidiaries and affiliated companies, and that pursuant to practices established or maintained by the Company and its subsidiaries, the payments to Employee under this Agreement may be made by one or more of the Companys subsidiaries or affiliated companies.
B. TERM. The initial term of employment under this Agreement shall be for a period commencing on July 1, 2012 (the Effective Date) and continuing, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, through June 30, 2013 (the Ending Date) (such period being the Term).
C. OPTION TO EXTEND. Unless this Agreement has been otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall have three (3) irrevocable options to extend this Agreement beyond its initial one-year Term for three (3) additional renewal periods of one (1) year each under the terms and conditions set forth herein, the first such renewal period to commence July 1, 2013. The options will be deemed exercised automatically by the Company unless written notice that the Agreement will not be extended is given to Employee by Company at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the initial Term or any renewal term.
D. EXCLUSIVE NATURE OF SERVICES. During the term of this Agreement, Employees services shall be exclusive to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee may perform such other work, whether for consideration or as a volunteer only if and to the extent that such other work does not interfere with Employees duties for the Company. Employee shall not make any investment of money or time in any business that is or may be competitive or which is being formed or organized to be competitive with or similar to or adverse to any of the Companys businesses, services, or product(s), whether such business is conducted by a proprietorship, partnership, corporation or other entity or venture.
E. OWNERSHIP OF PROCEEDS. Employee hereby expressly gives and grants, in perpetuity, to the Company exclusively, all rights of any kind and character whatsoever (including without limitation all now and hereafter existing common law, statutory and moral
3
rights throughout the world and regardless of whether such rights are now known) in and to Employees services pursuant to this Agreement and in and to the results and proceeds of such services. Employee shall not have any right, title, or interest in or to any material embodied in any program or other material produced by the Company and its affiliates regardless of any contributions thereto made by Employee.
II. | COMPENSATION. |
A. SALARY. Subject to the provisions of Section III.C and III.D. of this Agreement, as full and complete consideration for all services and materials furnished by Employee hereunder, during the original term of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to Employee a salary at the rate of Two Hundred Seventy-five Thousand ($275,000) per annum (less taxes and required withholdings). Employees salary shall be paid periodically in accordance with the Companys normal payroll practices. Assuming Employees continued employment, and assuming that the Company does not send the written notice that the Agreement will not be extended, the annual rate of salary shall increase by three percent (3%) on July 1, 2013 and each July 1 thereafter during the Term of this Agreement and any renewal period.
B. BONUS PLAN. Provided that Employee fully performs all material obligations hereunder, during the Term of this Agreement and any renewal period, the Company may pay to Employee a discretionary annual bonus in an amount up to Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) (less taxes and required withholdings) (the Bonus), based on Employees performance as judged by the Company in its sole discretion, as follows:
a. Provided that the Company has not sent the written notice to Employee set forth in Section I.C. hereof that this Agreement will not be extended, and provided that Employee has remained in the position of Chief Financial Officer through December 31 of each calendar year during the Term of this Agreement (December 31, 2013, December 31, 2014, and December 31, 2015), and provided Employee has performed all material obligations under this Agreement, then Thirty-Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ( $37,500) of the potential Bonus may be payable for each calendar year during the term of this Agreement commencing with calendar year 2013.
4
b. The remaining Thirty-Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($37,500) of the potential Bonus may be payable in respect of each calendar year during the Term of this Agreement commencing with calendar year 2013 if (x) Employee has remained in the position of Chief Financial Officer through December 31 of each calendar year during the Term of this Agreement and the Company has not sent the written notice set forth in Section I.C hereof (December 31, 2013, December 31, 2014, and December 31, 2015), and (y) the Company has achieved the EBITDA goals established by the Company in its sole discretion for such calendar year.
c. In addition to the annual bonus set forth in sections II.B.a. and II.B.b of this Agreement, for the stub period of June 16, 2012 to December 31, 2012 (the 2012 Stub Period), provided that Employee remains in the position of Chief Financial Officer through December 31, 2012, the Company may in its sole discretion pay Employee a bonus in an amount that the Company may choose it its sole discretion in respect of the 2012 Stub Period. For the stub period of January 1, 2016 through June 30, 2016, (the 2016 Stub Period), provided that the Company has elected to exercise its options to continue the Agreement, and provided that Employee remains in the position of Chief Financial Officer through June 30, 2016, the Company may in its sole discretion pay Employee a based bonus in an amount that the Company may choose it its sole discretion in respect of the 2016 Stub Period.
Employees interest in any and all bonuses under this Section II.B shall not vest until the date upon which the Company would be obligated to tender payment for the particular bonus. Any interest in bonuses under this Section II.B is subject to the Company not exercising its right under Section I.C of this Agreement to send written notice to Employee that the Agreement will not be extended. Any bonuses earned under this section shall be paid to Employee within thirty (30) days of the close of the applicable calendar year period or Stub Period for which the bonus is calculated. In the event Employee contends that any bonus has not been properly paid under this Agreement, Employee shall give written notice to the Company, and the Company shall have thirty (30) days to cure any defect in Employees bonus payment. The Company shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Agreement if it cures any defect in Employees Bonus payment within thirty (30) days of receiving such written notice.
5
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above (including Section II.B above), if and to the extent required under stock exchange rules or law, following an initial public offering of the common stock of the Company, the Employees bonus shall be determined by a compensation committee or in such other manner as the Company determines satisfies such applicable rules or laws.
C. OPTION GRANT. Upon approval by the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors, the Company may grant Employee an option (the Option) to purchase shares of the Companys Class A common stock representing, on a fully diluted basis as of the date of the grant, four tenths of one percent (0.4%) of the outstanding shares of the Companys common stock on the basis of and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section II.C. Assuming Employee remains in the position of Chief Financial Officer and that the Company has not exercised its right to send the written notice set forth in Section I.C that this Agreement will not be extended, and assuming that Employee has performed all material obligations under this Agreement, the Option (0.4%) shall vest and become exercisable in four equal annual installments of one tenth of one percent (0.1%) on June 30 of each calendar year during the Term and any renewal period, commencing with June 30, 2013. It is acknowledged and agreed that the maximum total Option grant that can vest over the Term of this Agreement and all renewal periods is four tenths of one percent (0.4%) of the outstanding shares of the Companys common stock.
It is acknowledged and agreed that any interest in any installment of the Option is subject to the Companys right to send the written notice set forth in Section I.C. of this Agreement that this Agreement will not be extended.
The exercise price of the Option shall be the price paid per common share in the July 2007 acquisition of shares of Class A common stock of the Company by Ernesto Cruz (which price was substantially identical to the price paid by Oaktree Capital Management and Tinicum Capital Partners for their acquisitions in 2007 of Class A common stock of the Company). For purposes of clarity, the Company and Employee each recognize and agree that the per share exercise price of the Option contemplated above is likely to be in excess of the fair market value per share of the Companys Class A common stock as of the date hereof.
6
The Option shall be governed pursuant to the Liberman Broadcasting, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan), and shall be subject to the terms and conditions (including but not limited to terms and conditions regarding adjustments in the event of changes in the Companys capital structure) generally applicable to option grants under the Plan. The Plan generally provides that upon a Change in Control Event, as defined in the Plan, the then-unvested portion of options shall become 50% vested, and the Company agrees that such vesting provision shall apply to the Option.
D. HEALTH INSURANCE. Until this Agreement terminates or expires, Employee and her dependents shall be eligible to participate in any medical insurance plan and dental insurance plan that may then be available to employees of the Company under the same terms and conditions as provided generally to the Companys employees, provided that the Company shall pay the full cost of premiums for Employee and her dependents. The Company reserves the right to change from time to time the insurance carrier(s) and the level and amount of insurance benefits available to employees of the Company, and reserves the right to terminate said benefits at any time.
E. EXPENSES. The Company shall reimburse Employee, pursuant to the Companys expense policies for reasonable expenses incurred in the performance of Employees duties as Chief Financial Officer. Any questions about the reasonableness of an expense shall be conclusively resolved by the Companys President in the Presidents sole discretion.
F. VACATION AND OTHER BENEFITS. Subject to the Companys vacation policy, Employee shall be entitled to fifteen (15) days of paid vacation during the Term and any renewal term. Employee shall be entitled during the Term of this Agreement and any renewal term to participate in benefit plans or policies generally applicable to employees of the Company, including, but not limited to, all retirement, deferred compensation and similar plans and programs generally available to other employees of the Company as in effect from time to time, subject to any legally required restrictions specified in such plans and programs.
G. INDEMNITY. The Board of Directors of the Company has adopted Bylaws providing for the indemnification of the officers and certain other employees and agents of the Company, including other persons serving at the request of the Company in such capacities with
7
other corporations or enterprises, as authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the Code). The Bylaws and the Code, by their non-exclusive nature, permit contracts between the Company and its agents, officers, employees and other agents with respect to indemnification of such persons. The Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of LBI, hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Employee to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by the provisions of the Bylaws as the same may be amended from time to time (but, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than the Bylaws permitted prior to adoption of such amendment).
III. | TERMINATION PRIOR TO EXPIRATION OF AGREEMENT. |
A. DISABILITY. If Employee becomes disabled due to sickness or accident during the term of this Agreement, and is no longer able to perform the essential functions of the job with or without reasonable accommodation, and such disability continues for more than eight (8) consecutive weeks, the Company, in its sole discretion, may either (1) suspend Employees obligation to render services hereunder and the Companys obligation to pay Employee under the terms of this Agreement during the continuation of such disability, or (2) terminate this Agreement immediately; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall limit Employees right to any disability leave provided under the California Pregnancy Disability Leave law or similar applicable law. If Employee is terminated as the result of disability, the Company shall not be obligated to provide any further payments or compensation to Employee hereunder, except amounts due as salary and expense reimbursement earned at the time of such termination.
B. DEATH. In the event of Employees death during the Term of this Agreement or any renewal term, this Agreement shall terminate and the Company shall have no further obligation to provide any further payments or compensation to Employee or Employees surviving spouse, estate or legal representatives, except amounts due as salary previously earned and vested at the time of such termination and any expense reimbursement due prior to death.
C. TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY FOR CAUSE. The Company may terminate this Agreement at any time for Cause as hereinafter defined. Cause shall be
8

Upon receipt of such notice Employee will have twenty (20) business days within which to fully cure such event(s) or condition(s). If Employee fails to fully cure such event(s) or condition(s) during such twenty (20) day period, then Employee shall be deemed to have terminated employment for Cause on the date the notice was provided by the Company.

D. PUBLIC MORALS . If Employee commits any act or becomes involved in any situation, or occurrence, which degrades Employee in society, or brings Employee into public disrepute, contempt, scandal or ridicule, or which justifiably shocks, insults or offends the community, or which reflects negatively upon Employee, the Company, a sponsor or a licensee of the Companys stations, or if publicity is given to any such conduct, commission or involvement on the part of Employee, which occurred prior to the date of this Agreement, the Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately.
E. FORCE MAJEURE . If during the term of this Agreement, due to labor disputes, government regulations, or because of the failure of broadcasting facilities due to war or other calamity (collectively, Force Majeure) the Company in good faith believes it is unable to utilize Employees services, the Company shall have the right upon twenty-four (24) hours prior notice to Employee to suspend Employees services for the duration of such Force Majeure, or for any part thereof, and no compensation will be paid or accrue to Employee during any such period of suspension; provided that such suspension shall end as soon as such Force Majeure terminates.
