Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
On September 27, 2010, the board of directors of Game Trading Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Richard Leimbach as chief financial officer of the Company.  There is no understanding or arrangement between Mr. Leimbach and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Leimbach was selected as an executive officer of the Company.  Mr. Leimbach does not have any family relationship with any director, executive officer or person nominated or chosen by us to become a director or executive officer.

From January 2004 to August 2010, Mr. Leimbach previously served for more than six years in the finance division at Telkonet, Inc. [OTCBB: TKOI], a publicly-traded clean technology and smart-grid networking company, initially as Vice President of Finance and since 2007 as Chief Financial Officer.  From October 2001 to January 2004, he was the Controller of UltraBridge an applications solution provider, where he was tasked with building up its financial processes from the startup phase.  Before UltraBridge, from July 2008 to August 2001, Mr. Leimbach held the position of Corporate Accounting Manager at Snyder Communications, Inc., a global marketing company, where he was involved in consolidating the company’s extensive operations and working with the SEC.  Mr. Leimbach has also held various positions at public accounting firms, including Wolpoff & Co. from August 1995 to July 1998 and The Reznick Group from January 1992 to August 1995, and he holds a degree in accounting from Towson University in Maryland.

On September 27, 2010, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Leimbach. The employment agreement provides that Mr. Leimbach will receive an annual base salary of $150,000 per year, with the annual base salary increasing by an amount not less than 5% on each anniversary date of the employment agreement. In addition, Mr. Leimbach received an option to purchase 225,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $2.50 per share.  The options vest in three (3) equal annual installments of thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%), the first installment to be exercisable on the date of grant, with an additional thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) becoming exercisable on each of September 27, 2011 and September 27, 2012, respectively.  These options were issued under the Company’s 2009 Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan. Mr. Leimbach is entitled to participate in any and all benefit plans, from time to time, in effect for senior management, along with vacation, sick and holiday pay in accordance with the Company’s policies established and in effect from time to time.

 The employment agreement provides for termination of an executive’s employment without any further obligation on our part upon the death or disability of the executive or for cause. In the event that an executive’s employment is terminated without cause or for good reason, we are obligated to pay such executive his base salary for six (6) months beyond the termination date in accordance with our normal payroll practices. Termination for “cause” means termination as a result of (w) willful and material malfeasance, dishonesty or habitual drug or alcohol abuse by the executive related to or affecting the performance of his duties, (x) continuing and intentional breach, non-performance or non-observance of any of the terms or provisions of the employment agreement, but only after the failure of the executive to cure the breach within thirty days of receipt of notice from us, (y) conduct which the board determines could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on us, but only after the failure of the executive to cease such conduct within thirty days of receipt of notice from us, or (z) the executive's conviction of a felony, any crime involving moral turpitude related to or affecting the performance of the executive’s duties or any act of fraud, embezzlement, theft or willful breach of fiduciary duty against us. “Good Reason” means (i) material diminution in the executive’s base salary or other benefits during the term of the executive’s employment, (ii) a material reduction in the executive’s power and responsibility within the Company, (iii) a change in geographic location at which the executive must regularly perform services of more than fifty miles; or (iv) a change in control occurs; provided that none of the foregoing shall constitute “Good Reason” unless the executive provides us with written notice of the occurrence or existence of such events and we fail to cure such occurrence within thirty days of receipt of such notice.  “Change in Control” means (i) any person, other than us, our existing stockholders or any of our or their affiliates, purchases “beneficial ownership” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of the combined voting power of voting securities then ordinarily having the right to vote for our directors; (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of our assets; or (iii) we merge or consolidate with another corporation and our stockholders immediately prior to such transaction do not own, immediately after such transaction, stock of the purchasing or surviving corporation possessing more than 50% of the voting power (for the election of directors) of the outstanding stock of the purchasing or surviving corporation.
 
 The employment agreement also contains covenants (a) restricting the executive from engaging in any activity competitive with our business during the term of the employment agreement and in the event of termination for cause or without good reason, for a period of one year thereafter, (b) prohibiting the executive from disclosing confidential information regarding us, and (c) soliciting our employees, customers and prospective customers during the term of the employment agreement and for a period of one year thereafter.
