    EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT

     

    THIS
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is entered into to be effective as of the 1st
day of September 2010, by and between Tix Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(hereinafter the “Company”), and Kimberly Simon, an individual
(hereinafter “Employee”).

     

    WITNESSETH

     

    WHEREAS,
the Company desires to continue the services of Employee, and Employee is
willing to continue as an employee of the Company, on the terms and subject to
the conditions hereinafter set forth.  This Agreement supersedes and
replaces all prior agreements between the Company and Employee regarding the
subject matter hereof.

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained, the
parties hereto hereby agree as follows;

     

    1.           Engagement; Nature of
Duties.  The Company hereby engages Employee, for the period
hereinafter set forth, to serve as and hold the office of Chief Operating
Officer, and to perform the duties of such offices as provided in the Bylaws of
the Company and as directed by the Board of Directors of the
Company.  Employee agrees to serve in such capacity and to do and
perform the service, acts, or things necessary to carry out the duties of such
office, and such other duties, not inconsistent with such offices and Employee’s
position as an executive officer of the Company.  Employee shall
report only to the Chief Executive Officer and the Board of Directors of the
Company from time to time.  It is expressly agreed and acknowledged
that employment in the capacity of the aforementioned offices was a material
inducement to Employee to enter into this Agreement.

     

    2.           Term.  The
term of employment pursuant to this Agreement shall be for a period of
three (3) years, commencing on September 1, 2010 (the “Commencement
Date”), unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof (the
“Term”).

     

    3.           Performance of
Duties.  Employee shall devote such time and attention to
Employee’s duties as may be reasonably necessary to perform and carry out such
duties, but in any event, a minimum of 40 hours per week.

     

    4.           Employee
shall perform her duties hereunder primarily in the Las Vegas, Nevada area, and
shall not be required to perform such duties on a regular basis at any other
location except for site or location visits to be conducted by Employee from
time to time.  Employee shall not be required to relocate without her
consent.

     

    5.           Compensation.

     

    (a)           Base
Salary.  The Company shall pay to Employee a base salary in the
amount of two hundred sixty-two thousand four hundred forty-four Dollars
($262,440) per year (the “Base Salary”), payable in periodic installments in
accordance with the Company’s prevailing policy for compensating personnel, but
not less often than semi monthly.  On each yearly anniversary of the
Commencement Date (September 1, 2010), the Base Salary shall be increased
by eight percent (8%).

     

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    (b)           Discretionary
Bonus.  Employee shall be eligible to receive an annual bonus
during her employment at the sole discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors
(or its Compensation Committee).  It is expected that in determining
whether to grant a bonus and the amount thereof, if any, the Board will consider
the Company’s results of operations and Employee’s contribution thereto which
may be based on performance criteria established from time to time by the
Board.

     

    (c)           Stock
Compensation.  Effective as of the date hereof, the Company
shall grant to Employee three-year options (the “Options”) to purchase an
aggregate of 300,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock in three tranches of
100,000 (each a “Tranche”).  All of the Options shall be exercisable
at $.82 per share, the fair market value thereof on the date
hereof.  The First Tranche shall vest on the first anniversary of the
Commencement Date; the second Tranche on the second anniversary; and the third
Tranche on the third anniversary.  Upon termination of this Agreement
for any reason other than for Cause, any Options not previously vested shall
immediately vest and be exercisable for a period of one year from the date of
termination.

     

    6.           Expenses Reimbursement;
Automobile.  The services required of Employee by this
Agreement shall include the responsibility and duty of entertaining business
associates and others with whom the Company is, desires to be, or may become
engaged in business or with whom it seeks, now or in the future, to develop or
expand business relationships, or with whom it is otherwise to the benefit of
the Company to establish or maintain communications.  It may also be
necessary for Employee to travel from time to time on behalf of and for the
benefit of the Company, or in furtherance of the Company’s
business.  It is the Company’s belief that the performance of
Employee’s duties in such travel and entertainment activities will produce the
maximum benefits which the Company expects to derive from Employee’s
services.  Accordingly, the Company shall pay, or if Employee shall
have paid, shall reimburse to Employee, any and all expenses incurred by her or
for his account in the performance of his duties hereunder, including all
expenses for business, entertainment, promotion and travel by Employee, subject
only to Employee providing appropriate documentation for such
expenses.  It is expressly agreed, in connection therewith, that
Employee shall be provided or reimbursed for reasonable travel and
accommodations.  The Company shall provide Employee with an
automobile, reasonably commensurate with Employee’s office and position, for use
by Employee in performing Employee’s duties hereunder and the Company shall be
responsible for all expenses associated with ownership/leasing of such
automobile, including, but not limited to, costs of licensing or registration,
insurance, maintenance, taxes and gasoline.  Employee shall maintain
such records with respect to the use of such automobile as the Company may
reasonably request.

     

    In the
event that Employee shall be deemed to have received income, for state or
federal income tax purposes, by reason of Employee’s receipt of or reimbursement
for any of the benefits or expenses set forth in this Section 5, the
Company shall pay or reimburse Employee for all taxes required to be paid by
Employee with respect to such income.

    7.           Medical and Life Insurance;
Pension Benefits; Tax Preparation.  The Company shall provide
or reimburse Employee and Employee’s spouse for health and long-term care
insurance (premiums up to $10,000 per year), and Employee life insurance
(premiums up to $1,000 per year), and disability insurance (up to $10,000 per
month coverage) (premiums up to $3,000 per year).  Employee shall also
have the right to participate in any and all employee retirement benefits plan
or profit-sharing plan which the Company maintains for its personnel, and in
effect at any time during the period of Employee’s employment hereunder, subject
only to any eligibility restrictions of such plans, the plan documents and
generally applicable policies of the Company.  Employee shall be
entitled to reimbursement of up to $4,000 per year for personal tax consultation
and preparation of tax returns and other forms and filings.

     

    8.           Vacation.  During
each year of the Term, Employee shall be entitled to a vacation of four (4)
weeks, without deduction of salary.  Such vacation shall be taken at
such time or times during the applicable year as may be mutually determined by
Employee and the Company.  Any additional vacation period shall be
determined by the Company consistent with the general customs and practices of
the Company applicable to its personnel.

     

    9.           Termination.  This
Agreement may be terminated by the Company for cause.  As used herein,
“cause” shall mean:

commission by Employee of any act of embezzlement, fraud, larceny or theft on or
from the Company or an affiliate of the Company;

     

    (b)           the

Employee; or

     

    (d)           a

Agreement or any agreement between the Company and Employee regarding

    In
addition, this Agreement shall automatically be terminated upon Employee’s death
or permanent disability.  As used herein, “permanent disability” shall

for cause or for death or permanent disability as defined above, or pursuant to
a Change in Control discussed below, the Company expressly agrees and
acknowledges that Employee shall be entitled to receive the base salary and
benefits described in Sections 4 and 5 of this Agreement for the remainder

Company shall be entitled to a set off or reduction in the amounts payable to
Employee hereunder as a result of any compensation paid to Employee with respect
to such new employment.

    13.           Successors; Binding
Agreement.

     

    (a)           The

and/or assets of the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be
required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.  Failure
of the Company to obtain such assumption and agreement prior to the
effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and
shall entitle Employee to Termination of Benefits from the Company as provided
herein, except that, for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on
which any such succession becomes effective shall be deemed Employee’s date of
termination.  As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the
Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets
as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement, by operation of
law or otherwise.

     

    (b)           This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee’s

still be payable to Employee hereunder if Employee had continued to live, all
such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with

if there is no such designee, to Employee’s estate.

party in exercising any right, power or privilege under any term, condition or
provision of this agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a
single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any
other right, power or privilege.

     

    17.           Severability.  In
the event any one or more of the terms, conditions or provisions contained in
this Agreement should be found in a final award or judgment rendered by any
court or arbitrator or panel of arbitrators of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining terms, conditions and provisions contained
herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and this Agreement
shall be interpreted and construed as if such term, condition or provision, to
the extent the same shall have been held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, had
never been contained herein, provided that such interpretation and construction
is consistent with the intent of the parties as expressed in this
Agreement.

     

    18.           Headings.  The
headings of the Articles and Sections contained in this Agreement are included
herein for reference purposes only, solely for the convenience of the parties
hereto, and shall not in any way be deemed to affect the meaning, interpretation
or applicability of this Agreement or any term, condition or provision
hereof.

    19.           Applicable
Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California, without reference to its
choice of law principles, notwithstanding the fact that one or more counterparts
hereof may be executed outside of the State, or one or more of the obligations
of the parties hereunder are to be performed outside of the state.

     

    20.           Attorney’s
fees.  In the event that any party to this Agreement shall
commence any suit, action, arbitration or other proceeding to interpret this
Agreement, or determine or enforce any right or obligation created hereby,
including but not limited to any action for rescission of this Agreement or for
a determination that this Agreement is void or ineffective ab initio, the
prevailing party in such action shall recover such party’s costs and expenses
incurred in connection therewith, including attorney’s fees and costs of appeal,
if any.  Any court, arbitrator or panel of arbitrators shall, in
entering any judgment or making any award in any such suit, action, arbitration
or other proceeding, in addition to any and all other relief awarded to such
prevailing party, include in such judgment or award such party’s costs and
expenses as provided in this Section 19.

     

    21.           Execution and
Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an
original, and such counterparts together shall constitute only one
instrument.  Any or all of such counterparts may be executed within or
outside the State of California.  Facsimile signatures shall have the
same binding effect as an original wet ink signature.

     

    22.           Covenant of Further
Assurances.  All parties to this Agreement shall, upon request,
perform any and all acts and execute and deliver any and all certificates,
instruments and other documents that may be necessary or appropriate to carry
out any of the terms, conditions and provisions hereof or to carry out the
intent of this Agreement.

     

    23.           Remedies
Cumulative.  Each and all of the several rights and remedies
provided for in this Agreement shall be construed as being cumulative and no one
of them shall be deemed to be exclusive of the others or of any right or remedy
allowed by law or equity, and pursuit of any one remedy, or a waiver of any
other remedy.

     

    24.           Binding
Effect.  Subject to the restrictions in Section 27 hereof
respecting assignments, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon all of the parties hereto and their respective executors,
administrators, successors and permitted assigns.

     

    25.           Compliance With
Laws.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed
to require the commission of any act contrary to law and whenever there is a
conflict between any term, condition or provision of this Agreement and any
present or future statute, law, ordinance or regulation contrary to which the
parties have no legal right to contract, the latter shall prevail, but in such
event the term, condition or provision of this Agreement affected shall be
curtailed and limited only to the extent necessary to bring it within the
requirement of the law, provided that such construction is consistent with the
intent of the parties as expressed in this Agreement.

    26.           Gender.  As
used in this Agreement, the masculine, feminine or neuter gender, and the
singular or plural number, shall be deemed to include the others whenever the
context so indicates.

     

    27.           No Third Party
Benefit.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed
to confer any right or benefit on any person who is not a party to this
Agreement.

     

    28.           Assignment.  Neither
party may assign this Agreement, or any rights hereunder, without the prior
express consent of the other party.

     

    29.           Arbitration.  Any
controversy, dispute or claim of whatever nature arising out of, in connection
with or relating to this Agreement or the interpretation, meaning, performance,
breach or enforcement thereof, including any controversy, dispute or claim based
on contract, tort, or statute, and including without limitation claims relating
to the validity of this Agreement or relating to termination of employment,
shall be resolved at the request of either party to this Agreement, by final and
binding arbitration conducted at a location in Los Angeles, California,
administered by Judicate West or Alternative Dispute Resolution, and judgment
upon any award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered by any State or
Federal Court having jurisdiction thereof.  Either party may commence
such proceeding by giving notice to the other party in the manner provided in
Section 11 of this Agreement.  Upon filing a demand for
arbitration, all parties to the Agreement will have the right of discovery to
the maximum extent provided by law for actions tried before a court, and both
agree that in the event of an arbitration, disputes as to discovery shall be
determined by the arbitrator(s).  The arbitrator(s) in any such
proceeding shall apply California substantive law and the California Evidence
Code to the proceeding.  The arbitrator(s) shall have the power to
grant all legal and equitable remedies (provisional and final) and award damages
provided by California law.  The arbitrator(s) shall prepare in
writing and provide to the parties an award including findings of fact and
conclusions of law.  The arbitrator(s) shall not have the power to
commit errors of law or legal reasoning, and the award may be vacated or
corrected pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure §§1286.2 or 1286.6 for
any such error.  The Company shall pay all fees of the arbitrator, and
each party shall bear its or his expenses, costs and attorney fees relating to
the arbitration and recovery under any order and/or judgment rendered
therein.  In any such proceeding general counsel for the Company may
represent the Company regardless of whether such counsel has rendered advice to
Employee in the past unless prohibited by law or rules of the California State
Bar Association.  The parties hereto hereby submit to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California for the purpose of
enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate and any and all awards or orders
rendered pursuant thereto.
