Exhibit 10.2





EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
 
 THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into effective as of March 24, 2011 (“Effective Date”) by and between LiveDeal, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) and Kevin Hall (“Executive”).
 
 In consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and agreements herein contained, intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as follows:
 
 1.           Employment.  The Company hereby agrees to employ Executive, and Executive hereby agrees to serve, subject to the provisions of the Agreement, as an employee of the Company in the position of Chief Executive Officer.  Executive will perform all services and acts reasonably necessary to fulfill the duties and responsibilities of his positions and will render such services on the terms set forth herein and will report to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).  In addition, Executive will have such other executive and managerial powers and duties with respect to the Company as may reasonably be assigned to him by the Board, to the extent consistent with his positions and status as set forth above.  Executive is obligated to devote his full time, attention and energies to perform the duties assigned hereunder and Executive agrees to perform such duties diligently, faithfully and to the best of his abilities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company acknowledges and agrees that during the Term, Executive shall have the right to have a “financial interest” in or serve as a consultant, officer or director of any non-competing business, subject to advance Board approval; provided that Executive agrees that engaging in such outside activities shall not interfere with the performance of Executive’s full-time duties hereunder.  Executive acknowledges that any such outside activities that involve an entity other than the Company or its subsidiaries will involve an entity independent of the Company and any actions or decisions Executive takes or makes on behalf of such entity will not be imputed to the Company or its subsidiaries.
 
 2.           Term.  This Agreement is for a two-year period (the “Term”) commencing on the Effective Date hereof and terminating on the second anniversary of the Effective Date, or upon the date of termination of employment pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Term may be extended as mutually agreed to by the parties.
 
 3.           Compensation.
 
 (a)          Salary.  Executive shall be paid a salary at the annual rate of $225,000 (the “Salary”).  The Salary will at all times be payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices and subject to all applicable withholdings, including taxes.
 
 (b)         Performance Bonuses.  Executive will be entitled to receive an annual performance bonus in the event the Company reaches certain performance measures established by the Compensation Committee of the Board or the entire Board.  The performance milestones shall be weighted 75% financial and 25% personal.  Executive’s target bonus will be 50% of the Salary.   All bonuses payable will be subject to all applicable withholdings, including taxes.
 
 (c)          Stock Option.  Executive is entitled to an option to purchase from the Company for cash all or any part of an aggregate of 12,813 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Option”) at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant (“Grant Date”).  The Option will be granted pursuant to the Company’s 2003 Stock Plan and the Company’s standard form of Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement.  The Option granted under this Agreement is not intended to be an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  So long as Executive continues to be employed by the Company in accordance with this Agreement, the Option will vest and be exercisable according to the following schedule: one quarter (25%) on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and the remainder shall vest 1/36 at the end of each month thereafter over the next 36 months so long as Executive continues to provide services to the Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all unvested shares shall become immediately vested and exercisable in the event there has occurred (i) a Change of Control involving the Company and (ii) the successor to the Company or the Company’s business terminates Executive within 12 months of such Change of Control or within such 12-month time period reduces Executives compensation and benefits from what they were immediately prior to the Change of Control and/or such successor company fails to assume the obligations of the Company under and become a party to this Agreement.
 
 
 
 As used in this Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall mean any of the following events:
 
 (i)           the Company is a party to a merger or consolidation, or series of related transactions, with a person other than an affiliate; or
 
 (ii)          all or substantially all of the assets of the Company are, in any transaction or series of transactions, sold or otherwise disposed of (or consummation of any transaction, or series of related transactions, having similar effect), other than to an affiliate; or
 
 (iii)         at least 51% of the Company’s outstanding shares are tendered to an unaffiliated third party
 
 provided, however, that in no event shall a “Change in Control” be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Agreement solely because the Company engages in an internal reorganization, which may include a transfer of assets to, or a merger or consolidation with, one or more affiliates.
 
 4.           Business Expenses.  During the Term, the Company will reimburse Executive for all reasonable business expenses incurred by him in connection with his employment and the performance of his duties as provided hereunder, upon submission by the Executive of receipts and other documentation in conformance with the Company’s normal procedures for executives of Executive’s position and status.
 
 5.           Benefits.  During the Term, Executive will be eligible to participate fully in all health and benefit plans available to senior officers of the Company generally, as the same may be amended from time to time by the Board.  Executive shall be entitled to four weeks of annual vacation in accordance with the Company’s standard vacation policy for executives.
 
 6.           Termination of Employment.

 (i)           the date of Executive’s death;
 
 (ii)          the date on which Executive has experienced a Disability (as defined below), and the Company gives Executive notice of termination on account of Disability;

 (b)           For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” will mean an illness, injury or other incapacitating condition as a result of which Executive is unable to perform, with reasonable accommodation, the services required to be performed under this Agreement for 30 consecutive days during the Term.  Executive agrees to submit to such medical examinations as may be necessary to determine whether a Disability exists, pursuant to such reasonable requests made by the Company from time to time.  Any determination as to the existence of a Disability will be made by a physician mutually selected by the Company and Executive.
 
 (c)           For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” will mean the occurrence of any of the following events, as reasonably determined by the Board:
 
 (i)           Executive’s willful and continued refusal to substantially perform his duties hereunder, which the Company has given the Executive notice of in writing and which the Executive has not cured within 30 days of the receipt of such notice;
 
 (ii)          Executive’s conviction of a felony, or his guilty plea to or entry of a nolo contendere plea to a felony charge; or

 (d)           Following termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive shall fully cooperate with the Company in all matters relating to the winding up of Employee’s pending work including, but not limited to, any litigation in which the Company is involved, and the orderly transfer of any such pending work to such other employees as may be designated by the Company.
 
 7.           Compensation in Event of Termination.  Upon termination of this Agreement and Executive’s employment, the Company will have no further obligation to Executive except to pay the amounts set forth in this Section 7.
 
 (a)          In the event Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 6(a)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), Executive will be entitled to payment of any earned but unpaid Salary through the date of termination.  Any earned but unpaid bonuses, fees or payments due to Executive hereunder shall be paid to Executive as set forth herein.
 
 (b)          In the event Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 6(a)(v), and provided that Executive (i) if a member of the Board, formally resigns in writing from the Board and as an officer and director of any subsidiary of the Company, and (ii) executes a valid release of any and all claims that Executive may have relating to his employment against the Company and its agents, including, but not limited to, its officers, directors and employees, in a form provided by the Company and that contains a 12-month non-solicitation clause and a non-competition clause with a restrictive period equal to the Severance Period (as defined below), Executive will be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to Executive’s Salary for a period (“Severance Period”) of (i) three months if the termination occurs within the first 12 months of the Term and (ii) six months if the termination occurs after the first anniversary of the Effective Date but prior to the expiration of the Term, subject to all applicable withholdings and taxes.  Any earned but unpaid bonuses, fees or payments due to Executive hereunder shall be paid to Executive as set forth herein.

 8.           Confidentiality.  Executive covenants and agrees that he will not at any time during or after the end of the Term, without written consent of the Company or as may be required by law or valid legal process, directly or indirectly, use for his own account, or disclose to any person, firm or corporation, other than authorized officers, directors, attorneys, accountants and employees of the Company or its subsidiaries, Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) of the Company.  As used herein, “Confidential Information” of the Company means information about the Company of any kind, nature or description, including but not limited to, any proprietary information, trade secrets, data, formulae, supplier, client and customer lists or requirements, price lists or pricing structures, marketing and sales information, business plans or dealings and financial information and plans as well as papers, resumes and records (including computer records) that are disclosed to or otherwise known to Executive as a direct or indirect consequence of Executive’s employment with the Company or service as a member of the Board, which information is not generally known to the public or in the businesses in which the Company is engaged.  Confidential Information also includes any information furnished to the Company by a third party with restrictions on its use or further disclosure.
 
 9.           Inventions Assignment.  Executive hereby sells, transfers and assigns to the Company or to any person, or entity designated by the Company, all of the entire right, title and interest of the Executive in and to all inventions, ideas, disclosures and improvements, whether patented or unpatented, and copyrightable material, made or conceived by the Executive, solely or jointly, or in whole or in part, during or before the term hereof, which (i) relate to methods, apparatus, designs, products, processes or devices sold, leased, used or under construction or development by the Company, or (ii) otherwise relate to or pertain to the business, functions or operations of the Company.  Executive shall communicate promptly and disclose to the Company, in such form as the Company requests, all information, details and data pertaining to the aforementioned inventions, ideas, disclosures and improvements; and, whether during the term hereof or thereafter, the Executive shall execute and deliver to the Company such formal transfers and assignments and such other papers and documents as may be required of the Executive to permit the Company or any person or entity designated by the Company to file and prosecute the patent applications and, as to copyrightable material, to obtain copyright thereon. Any invention by the Executive within one year following the termination of this Agreement shall be deemed to fall within the provisions of this paragraph unless proved by the Executive to have been first conceived and made following such termination.
 
 10.         Dispute Resolution.  Except for an action exclusively seeking injunctive relief, any disagreement, claim or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement, including Executive’s employment or termination of employment with the Company will be resolved exclusively by arbitration before a single arbitrator in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (the “Rules”), provided that, the arbitrator will allow for discovery sufficient to adequately arbitrate any claims, including access to essential documents and witnesses; provided further, that the Rules will be modified by the arbitrator to the extent necessary to be consistent with applicable law.  The arbitration will take place in Las Vegas, Nevada.  The award of the arbitrator with respect to such disagreement, claim or controversy will be in writing with sufficient explanation to allow for such meaningful judicial review as permitted by law, and that such decision will be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction and will be binding on the parties hereto.  The remedies available in arbitration will be identical to those allowed at law.  The arbitrator will be entitled to award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party in any arbitration or judicial action under this Agreement, consistent with applicable law.  The Company and Executive each will pay its or his own attorneys’ fees and costs in any such arbitration, provided that, the Company will pay for any costs, including the arbitrator’s fee, that Executive would not have otherwise incurred if the dispute were adjudicated in a court of law, rather than through arbitration.
