WHEREAS, the Director wishes to accept such appointment and serve MobileBits Holdings, Pringo and MobileBits Corporation on the terms set forth herein, and in accordance with, the provisions of this Agreement.







NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:







Unless otherwise specifically noted, the terms and conditions below shall be applicable to the Director with respect to each individual entity: MobileBits Holdings, Pringo and MobileBits Corporation (each, the “Company”), as if fully set forth in three separate agreements by and between MobileBits Holdings and Director, Pringo and Director and MobileBits Corporation and Director.







1.           Position.  Subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall cause the Director to be appointed as a member of the Board to fill a directorship and the Director hereby agrees to serve the Company in that position upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, provided, however, that the Director's continued service on the Board after the initial term on the Board shall be subject to any necessary approval by the Company's stockholders.







2.           Duties.  During the Directorship Term (as defined in Section 5 hereof), the Director shall serve as a member of the Board, and the Director shall perform services as is consistent with Director’s position with the Company, as required and authorized by the By-Laws and Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, and in accordance with high professional and ethical standards and all applicable laws and rules and regulations pertaining to the Director’s performance hereunder, including without limitation, laws, rules and regulations relating to a public company.









  





  











  




 




The Director will use his/her best efforts to promote the interests of the Company. The Company recognizes that the Director (i) is or may become a full-time employee of another entity and that his/her responsibilities to such entity must have priority and (ii) sits or may sit on the Board of Directors of other entities. Notwithstanding same, the Director will use reasonable business efforts to coordinate his/her respective commitments so as to fulfill his/her obligations to the Company and, in any event, will fulfill his/her legal obligations as a Director. Other than as set forth above, the Director shall not, without the prior notification to the Board, engage in any other business activity which could materially interfere with the performance of his/her duties, services and responsibilities hereunder or which is in violation of the policies established from time to time by the Company, provided that the foregoing shall in no way limit his/her activities on behalf of (i) his/her current employer and its affiliates or (ii) the Board of  Directors of those entities on which he/she sits. At such time as the Board receives such notification, the Board may require the resignation of the Director if it determines that such business activity does in fact materially interfere with the performance of the Director’s duties, services and responsibilities hereunder.







                        The Director's status during the Directorship Term shall be that of an independent contractor and not, for any purpose, that of an employee or agent with authority to bind the Company in any respect.







3.            Board Committees. The Director hereby agrees to serve on or head a Committee of the Board at the Company’s discretion and to perform all of the duties, services and responsibilities necessary thereunder.







4.            Monetary Remuneration. Section 4 represents the exclusive compensation and benefits that the Director is entitled to for the services rendered hereunder. All payments and other consideration made or provided to the Director under Section 4 shall be made or provided without withholding or deduction of any kind, and the Director shall assume sole responsibility for discharging all tax or other obligations associated therewith.







(a) Stock Options.  Subject to the MobileBits Holdings Board’s approval, MobileBits Holdings shall grant a stock option (the “Option”) to the Director to purchase a total of one hundred and fifty thousand (150,000) shares of common stock of MobileBits Holdings (the “Common Stock”) at an exercise price of $0.51 USD per share for the Director’s services rendered hereunder for all three entities, MobileBits Holdings, Pringo and MobileBits Corporation.








	
(i)  

	
Vesting of Stock Options. The Option shall vest and become excisable on the first anniversary of the date of grant, provided that none of the Directorship Terms are terminated under Section 5(d), Section 5(f), and Section 5(g). Notwithstanding the above, the Option shall immediately vest and be issued to the Director if any of the Directorship Terms are terminated in accordance with Section 5(b), Section 5(c), and Section 5(e) hereof.  In the event that a change of control occurs resulting from (i) a merger of MobileBits Holdings into or with another person or entity (other than with an affiliated entity or subsidiary of the Company), or any sale or transfer of the equity interests of MobileBits Holdings in any such case in which the equity holders of MobileBits Holdings immediately prior to such transaction possess less than 50% of MobileBits Holdings’ or the surviving entity's issued and outstanding equity interests immediately after such transaction; or (ii) the sale by MobileBits Holdings of all or substantially all of its assets, the Option shall immediately vest and be issued to the Director.

6.             Director's Representation and Acknowledgment.  The Director represents to the Company that his/her execution and performance of this Agreement shall not be in violation of any agreement or obligation (whether or not written) that he/she may have with or to any person or entity, including without limitation, any prior employer. The Director hereby acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement (and any other agreement or obligation referred to herein) shall be an obligation solely of the Company, and the Director shall have no recourse whatsoever against any stockholder of the Company or any of their respective affiliates with regard to this Agreement.







7.             Director Covenants.







(a)  Unauthorized Disclosure.  The Director agrees and understands that in the Director's position with the Company, the Director has been and will be exposed to and receive nonpublic information and information relating to the confidential affairs of the Company and its affiliates (the “Protected Information”), including but not limited to technical information, business and marketing plans, strategies, customer information, other information concerning the Company's products, promotions, development, financing, expansion plans, business policies and practices, and other forms of information considered by the Company to be nonpublic, confidential and in the nature of trade secrets. The Director agrees that any Protected Information shall be used only in furtherance of the performance of the Director’s position with the Company and in the best interest of the Company. The Director agrees that during the Directorship Term and thereafter, the Director will keep such information confidential and will not disclose such information, either directly or indirectly, to any third person or entity without the prior written consent of the Company; provided, however, that (i) the Director shall have no such obligation to the extent such information is or becomes publicly known or generally known in the Company's industry other than as a result of the Director's breach of his/her obligations hereunder and (ii) the Director may, after giving prior notice to the Company to the extent practicable under the circumstances, disclose such information to the extent required by applicable laws or governmental regulations or judicial or regulatory process. This confidentiality covenant has no temporal, geographical or territorial restriction. Upon termination of the Directorship Term, the Director will promptly return to the Company all property, keys, notes, memoranda, writings, lists, files, reports, customer lists, correspondence, tapes, disks, cards, surveys, maps, logs, machines, technical data or any other tangible product or document which has been produced by, received by or otherwise submitted to the Director in the course or otherwise as a result of the Director's position with the Company during or prior to the Directorship Term, provided that, the Company shall retain such materials and make them available to the Director if requested by him/her in connection with any litigation against the Director under circumstances in which (i) the Director demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that the materials are necessary to his/her defense in the litigation, and (ii) the confidentiality of the materials is preserved to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company.

(b)  Non-Solicitation.  During the Directorship Term and for a period of three (3) years thereafter, the Director shall not interfere with the Company's relationship with, or endeavor to entice away from the Company, any person who, on the date of the termination of the Directorship Term, was an employee or customer of the Company or otherwise had a material business relationship with the Company.







(c)  Remedies.  The Director agrees that any breach of the terms of this Section 7 would result in irreparable injury and damage to the Company for which the Company would have no adequate remedy at law; the Director therefore also agrees that in the event of said breach or any threat of breach, the Company shall be entitled to an immediate injunction and restraining order to prevent such breach and/or threatened breach and/or continued breach by the Director and/or any and all entities acting for and/or with the Director, without having to prove damages, in addition to any other remedies to which the Company may be entitled at law or in equity. The terms of this paragraph shall not prevent the Company from pursuing any other available remedies for any breach or threatened breach hereof, including but not limited to the recovery of damages from the Director. The Director acknowledges that the Company would not have entered into this Agreement had the Director not agreed to the provisions of this Section 7.







The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive any termination of the Directorship Term, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by the Director against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of the covenants and agreements of this Section 7.







8.             Indemnification.  The Company agrees to cover the Director under any directors and officers’ liability insurance obtained by the Company.   In addition to and without limiting any other right or remedy available to the Director, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold Director harmless to the fullest extent authorized in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, bylaws, as amended, and applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses and disbursements, and any and all actions, suits, proceedings and investigations in respect thereof and any and all legal and other costs, expenses and disbursements in giving testimony or furnishing documents in response to a subpoena or otherwise (including, without limitation, the costs, expenses and disbursements, as and when incurred, of investigating, preparing, pursing or defending any such action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether or not in connection with litigation in which any the Director is a party)) (collectively, “Losses”), directly or indirectly, caused by, relating to, based upon, arising out of, or in connection with, Director’s performance of his/her activities as a Director of the Company, including, without limitation, any act or omission by Director in connection with its acceptance of or the performance or non-performance of its obligations under this Agreement between the Company and the Director to which these indemnification provisions are attached and form a part, except to the extent that any such Losses are found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of the Director seeking indemnification hereunder.
