Effective August 4, 2010, Sajan, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Timothy Clayton, age 55, as Chief Financial Officer.  Mr. Clayton will replace Shannon Zimmerman, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, who has served as Interim Chief Financial Officer since completion of the Company’s merger with MathStar, Inc. on February 23, 2010.

Mr. Clayton is a founding principal of Emerging Capital, LLC, a specialized management consulting firm providing advisory services in the areas of strategic planning, mergers and acquisitions, capital formation, corporate governance and CFO-related activities.  Prior to establishing Emerging Capital, Mr. Clayton served as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of Building One Services Corporation, a publicly traded national provider of facility services. Prior to that, Mr. Clayton worked for 21 years at Price Waterhouse, LLP, serving as an audit partner for nine years.  In this role, he was responsible for audit, acquisition support and business advisory services for a variety of clients.  Mr. Clayton has a B.A. in Accounting from Michigan State University, and is a Certified Public Accountant.

Mr. Clayton’s employment agreement (“Employment Agreement”) provides for an annual base salary of $175,000.  Mr. Clayton will be eligible to receive bonus payments from time to time, in an amount determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.  In addition, Mr. Clayton was granted stock options to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The stock options will be exercisable at the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, will vest in equal installments on June 1, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 and expire 10 years from the date of the grant.  Upon a Change of Control (as such term is defined in the Employment Agreement), all unvested stock options will become vested.  Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Clayton is subject to traditional non-competition and employee non-solicitation restrictions during the term of his employment with the Company and for one year following his termination of employment with the Company for any reason.  The Employment Agreement may be terminated by either party upon written notice.  In the event the Company terminates Mr. Clayton’s employment for any reason not constituting Cause or Mr. Clayton terminates his employment for Good Reason (as such terms are defined in the Employment Agreement), the Company will pay his base salary through the date of termination and will provide the following benefits: (i) severance pay equal to six months of his ending base salary and (ii) immediate vesting of all stock options that are due to be vested within six months from the date of termination.
