Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Employment Agreement

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved amended and restated employment agreements effective May 18, 2010 for David T. Stoner, the President and Chief Executive Officer, and for Laurie L. Latham, the Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President of Finance and Administration, which agreements were executed on May 18, 2010. The employment agreements have each been in effect since March 1, 2007 and are renewed annually with ongoing automatic one-year renewals unless one of the parties elects in advance not to renew the agreement in which case the term becomes a one year term. The employment agreements provide for (i) for annual base compensation of $215,000 and $185,000 for Mr. Stoner and Ms. Latham, respectively; (ii) for incentive compensation deemed appropriate for the position, at our Board of Directors’ discretion, which may be earned for each calendar year, and (iii) for an twelve (12) month non-compete and non-solicitation period upon termination of employment. Each agreement provides for a related 2010 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan for the executive, which provides for incentive based quarterly and annual bonuses based 50% on meeting profitability goals and 50% on meeting revenue growth targets.

Under the employment agreement, Mr. Stoner and Ms. Latham will be entitled to the following payments if employment is terminated by ViewCast without cause or by the employee due to a significant change in the nature and scope of the authority, powers, functions, benefits or duties attached to their position: (i) the twelve months of salary payments, (ii) the reimbursement for six months of COBRA premiums and (iii) payment of quarterly bonus if all requirements, other than employment on the date of payment, have been met. In the event ViewCast terminates employment following a change in control, Mr. Stoner and Ms. Latham will be entitled to (i) twelve months of salary payments and (ii) payment of quarterly bonus if all requirements, other than employment on the date of payment, have been met.

This description of the Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 10.45 and 10.46 to this report and are incorporated herein by reference.
