At that time, there were not present or represented by proxy a sufficient number of shares of the Company’s common stock in order to constitute the required quorum. As a result, the Company adjourned the Annual Meeting, which will reconvene on December 27, 2023 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time via live webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DPSI2023.Agreement

On December 722, 2023, Decision Point Systems, Inc.

A summary of the ~~adjournment~~material terms of the ~~Annual~~CEO ~~Meeting~~Employment Agreement is set forth below, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Term: The CEO Employment Agreement is for an initial term commencing January 1, 2024 and ending on December 31, 2027 unless the Company and Mr. Smith mutually agree to additional one year extensions, or it is earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of the CEO Employment Agreement (the “Term”).

Compensation: Mr. Smith’s annual base salary for calendar year 2024 will be $477,405, which such amount shall increase to $511,500 for calendar year 2025, $547,500 for calendar year 2026 and $586,000 for calendar year 2027 (the “Base Salary”). Pursuant to the terms of the CEO Employment Agreement, Mr. Smith is also eligible for an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”). Initially, Mr. Smith will be eligible to receive an Annual Bonus for calendar year 2024 of at least 80% of his Base Salary based on the achievement of (i) a gross revenue target, (ii) an adjusted EBITDA target and (iii) the growth of the Company’s services revenue. In future years, the Company’s Board of Directors or a committee thereof will set the relevant targets to receive an Annual Bonus of at least 90% of his then-current Base Salary. In addition, in connection with entering into the CEO Employment Agreement, Mr. Smith will be granted 300,000 Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs” (as described below)), which are scheduled to vest in three equal tranches beginning January 1, 2025 and annually thereafter.

Severance; Equity Acceleration: Upon a termination of Mr. Smith’s employment (1) by the Company other than for Cause or by Mr. Smith upon a resignation for Good Reason (each as defined in the CEO Employment Agreement) or (2) within one year after a Change in Control (as defined in the Employment Agreement, by the Company other than for Cause or by Mr. Smith upon a resignation for any reason (a “Change of Control Termination”), subject to the execution and non-revocation of a general release and compliance with the restrictive covenants described below, Mr. Smith will be entitled to (i) accrued obligations including any earned but unpaid Base Salary, accrued but unused vacation, and equity incentive awards which have vested through the termination date and (ii) 12 months of Base Salary (the “Severance Payment”). In the event of a Change of Control, unvested RSU awards will vest as of the closing date of the Change of Control.

Restrictive Covenants: During the Term, Mr. Smith is bound by a covenant not to own equity, or become employed or otherwise associated with the Company’s vendors, distributors, channel partners and/or investors (“Commercial Partners”), certain former Commercial Partners, or certain prospects from whom the Company solicited business in the year prior to date of termination with which Mr. Smith was involved or about which Mr. Smith received confidential information (“Prospects”). In addition, Mr. Smith has agreed not to use or disclose any confidential information of the Company, subject to customary exceptions, during the Term. During the Term and 12 months thereafter, Mr. Smith is bound by a covenant (i) not to solicit, render services to, or accept business from any Commercial Partner, certain former Commercial Partners, or Prospects (ii) not to solicit or hire the Company’s employees or former employees, (iii) not to induce such employees, or the Company’s subcontractors or vendors, to change their relationship with the Company, (iv) not to engage or assist any third parties in engaging in any business activity which competes, directly or indirectly, with the Company’s business or that is substantially similar to the Company’s business (“Competitive Activity”) within the any state within the United States in which the Company engages in business (the “Territory”), and (v) not to have an interest in any business or entity that engages, directly or indirectly, in Competitive Activity within the Territory.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards

On December 28, 2023, pursuant to the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), the Company’s Board of Directors approved a form of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (the “Award Agreement”) to be used as a template for awards of RSUs that may be granted to eligible participants under the Plan.

Under the Award Agreement, subject to satisfaction of any vesting restriction, each RSU represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), or if determined in the discretion of the Committee, the right to receive a cash amount equal to the fair market value of one share of Common Stock. Grants of RSUs that may be made under the Plan and form of Award will be subject to time-based vesting restrictions and will be subject to the holder’s continuous employment through the applicable vesting dates. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Award Agreement), all unvested RSUs shall vest as of the closing date of the Change in Control, provided that the holder remains employed through such closing date.

The foregoing description is a summary only of the material terms of the form of Award Agreement, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
