The Company’s By-laws provide that the number of directors is to be fixed by action of the directors or of the stockholders.

Unless otherwise instructed, the persons named in the proxy will vote to fix the number of directors at nine and to elect the nine nominees named below as directors. Although the board does not contemplate that any of the nominees will be unavailable to serve as a director, should any unexpected vacancies occur, the enclosed proxy will be voted for such substituted nominees, if any, as may be designated by the board. In no event will the proxy be voted for more than nine directors.

All of the nominees are currently directors. Set forth below is information about each nominee:

Director Independence

The board of directors has determined that Messrs. El-Tayara, Hart, Kroijer, Mullin, Walker and Williams are “independent,” as independence is defined in the listing standards for the Nasdaq Stock Market. Accordingly, six of the nine directors are independent. Although Messrs. El-Tayara and Hart are board members of KIT Media Ltd., our largest single stockholder, they are neither controlling shareholders nor employees of KIT Media, and are not disqualified under Nasdaq’s independence standards from being considered independent directors by us. In addition, Steven G. Felsher, who was not re-nominated to serve as a director but served as a director during 2009 and a portion of 2010, was determined by the board to be independent.

Board Leadership Structure

Kaleil Isaza Tuzman has been the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer since December 2007 when Mr. Isaza Tuzman, through entities controlled by him, made a significant investment in the Company and assumed management control of the Company. The Company believes that having one person, particularly Mr. Isaza Tuzman with his industry and executive management experience, his extensive knowledge of the operations of the Company and his own history of innovation and strategic thinking, serve as both Chief Executive Officer and Chairman is the best leadership structure for the Company because it demonstrates to our employees, customers and stockholders that the Company is under strong leadership, with a single person setting the tone and having primary responsibility for managing the Company’s operations. This unity of leadership promotes strategy development and execution, timely decision-making and effective management of Company resources. The Company believes that it has been and will continue to be well-served by this structure.

As described above, six of our nine directors are independent. In addition, all of the directors on each of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee are independent directors and each of these committees is led by a committee chair. The committee chairs set the agendas for their committees and report to the full board on their work. We expect to name a lead independent director prior to the Meeting. The lead independent director acts as an intermediary between the board and senior management. Among other things, the lead independent director is responsible for facilitating communication among directors and between the board and the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, working with the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer to provide an appropriate information flow to the board, and serving as an ex-officio member of each of our board committees and chairman of the executive sessions of the independent directors. As required by Nasdaq, our independent directors meet in executive session without management present as frequently as they deem appropriate, typically at the time of each regular in-person board meeting. All of our independent directors are highly accomplished and experienced business people in their respective fields, who have demonstrated leadership in significant enterprises and are familiar with board processes. The Company’s independent directors bring experience, oversight and expertise from outside the company and industry, while the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Messrs. Campion and Smyth bring company-specific experience and expertise.

Risk Oversight

While the board of directors is responsible for overseeing the Company’s risk management, the board has delegated many of these functions to the Audit Committee. Under its charter, the Audit Committee is responsible for discussing with management and the independent auditors the Company’s major financial risk exposures, the guidelines and policies by which risk assessment and management is undertaken, and the steps management has taken to monitor and control risk exposure. In addition to the Audit Committee’s work in overseeing risk management, the full board regularly engages in discussions of the most significant risks that the Company is facing and how those risks are being managed, and the board receives reports on risk management from senior officers of the Company and from the chair of the Audit Committee. In addition, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer’s extensive knowledge of the Company uniquely qualifies him to lead the board in assessing risks. The board of directors believes that the work undertaken by the Audit Committee, together with the work of the lead independent director, the full board and the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, enables the board to effectively oversee the Company’s risk management function.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee is comprised of four non-employee directors, each of whom is independent as defined under Nasdaq’s listing standards. The board of directors has determined that at least one committee member qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert.” The Audit Committee functions pursuant to a written charter, under which the committee has such powers as may be assigned to it by the board from time to time. The Audit Committee was established in 2008. In 2007 and until the formation of the Audit Committee in 2008, the entire board of directors performed the functions of the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee is currently comprised of Messrs. Kroijer, El-Tayara and Walker, as well as Mr. Mullin, its current Chairman.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is comprised of three non-employee directors, each of whom is independent as defined under Nasdaq’s listing standards. The Compensation Committee functions pursuant to a written charter, under which the committee has such powers as may be assigned to it by the board from time to time. The Compensation Committee was established in 2008. In 2007 and until the formation of the Compensation Committee in 2008, the entire board of directors performed the functions of the Compensation Committee.

In general, the Compensation Committee formulates and recommends compensation policies for board approval, oversees and implements these board-approved policies, and keeps the board apprised of its activities on a regular basis. In addition, the Compensation Committee together with the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee, develops criteria to assist the board's assessment of the Chief Executive Officer's leadership of our company.

The Compensation Committee is currently composed of Messrs. Williams and Mullin, as well as Mr. Kroijer, its current Chairman.

Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee is comprised of four non-employee directors, each of whom is independent as defined under Nasdaq’s listing standards. The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee functions pursuant to a written charter, under which the committee has such powers as may be assigned to it by the board from time to time. The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee was established in 2008. In 2007 and until the formation of the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee in 2008, the entire board of directors performed the functions of the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates for director recommended by stockholders of the Company. The procedures for submitting stockholder recommendations are explained below under “Stockholder Proposals” beginning on page 25.

The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for the Company’s qualification and nomination of potential board members. Pursuant to the committee’s charter, the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the qualities and skills of prospective members of the board of directors and generally requires that director candidates be qualified individuals who, if added to the board of directors, would provide the mix of director characteristics, experience, perspectives and skills appropriate for the Company. Criteria for selection of candidates include, but are not limited to: (i) business and financial acumen, as determined by the independent directors in their discretion, (ii) qualities reflecting a proven record of accomplishment and ability to work with others, (iii) knowledge of the Company’s industry, (iv) relevant experience and knowledge of corporate governance practices, and (v) expertise in an area relevant to the Company. Potential board members should not have commitments that would conflict with the time commitments of a director of the Company.

While the Company does not have a formal diversity policy for board membership, the board does seek to ensure that its membership consists of sufficiently diverse backgrounds, meaning a mix of backgrounds and experiences that will enhance the quality of the board’s deliberations and decisions. In considering candidates for the board, the independent directors consider, among other factors, diversity with respect to viewpoints, skills, experience and other demographics.

The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee is currently composed of Messrs. El-Tayara and Kroijer, as well as Mr. Walker, its current Chairman.

Technology and Product Development Committee

In July 2010, the board of directors established a Technology and Product Development Committee.

EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

The following table provides information on the executive officers of the Company. All the executive officers have been elected to serve until the board meeting following the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified.

   
Name   Age   Position
Kaleil Isaza Tuzman   38   Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer
Gavin Campion   38   President
Robin Smyth   56   Chief Financial Officer

Kaleil Isaza Tuzman was elected Chairman of the Board and has served as our Chief Executive Officer since January 2008. His business experience is summarized on page 1 and the executive management agreement under which he serves as an officer is summarized on page 13.

Gavin Campion has served as our President since April 2008. His business experience is summarized on page 2 and his employment agreement is summarized on pages 13 and 14.

Robin Smyth has served as our Chief Financial Officer since December 2003, except for a five-month personal leave of absence from April 27 to September 28, 2009. His business experience is summarized on page 2.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Other than the Executive Management Agreement described under “Compensation of Officers and Directors — Employment and Management Contracts, Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements” below, there are no transactions requiring disclosure between us and our related persons, promoters or control persons.

Each of the directors Daniel W. Hart, Gavin Campion, Joseph E. Mullin, Kamel El-Tayara and Lars Kroijer is a minority investor in KIT Media Ltd., our largest single stockholder controlled by Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Messrs. El-Tayara and Hart are also board members of KIT Media.

Over a period of 60 days between June 2009 and August 2009, KIT Media Ltd., an entity controlled by Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, made $3,350,000 available to us through an interim convertible promissory note bearing an 8% interest rate per annum and convertible into the next common stock offering under terms identical with other investors in the offering. In connection with our acquisition of certain assets of Narrowstep Inc. in April 2009, Granahan McCourt Capital, LLC, a stockholder of Narrowstep, loaned us $350,000, pursuant to a convertible promissory note on substantially the same terms as the KIT Media note described above. The KIT Media and Granahan McCourt notes payable were converted into common stock in our August 2009 public offering. Together with its additional cash investment of $654,000, KIT Media purchased a total of 572,000 shares of common stock in our August 2009 public offering. In a subsequent public offering completed in March 2010, KIT Media invested another $1,750,000, purchasing 179,856 shares of our common stock. In a public offering in April 2010, KIT Capital invested $1,300,000, purchasing 100,000 shares of our common stock. In each case, KIT Media and KIT Capital purchased shares at the same price and on the same terms as the other investors in the public offerings.

In the first quarter of 2010, our board of directors approved the repurchase of certain outstanding warrants issued as part of prior private placement financings, including but not limited to those held by KIT Media, Ltd., an entity controlled by Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. We repurchased and cancelled the warrants on March 31, 2010, in exchange for cash payments equal to the fair value of the applicable warrants on the date of repurchase, as determined using a modest percentage premium over the intrinsic value (using a 20-day trailing average closing stock price at the time of warrant repurchase agreement minus the applicable warrant exercise price) of the warrants. Such repurchase amounts were below the “Black-Scholes-Merton” value of the warrants. The terms of the warrant repurchase were no more favorable to KIT Media than to other warrant sellers, including Wellington Capital Management which led the negotiation of terms of the warrant repurchase.

In April 2010, the Company repurchased and cancelled a warrant to purchase shares from Robin Smyth, our Chief Financial Officer. The terms of the warrant repurchase were identical to Wellington and KIT Media, the negotiation of which terms was led by Wellington.

Employment and Management Contracts, Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements

KIT Capital Management Agreement.  During 2008 and 2009, the managerial services of Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and two non-executive personnel, were provided to us through KIT Capital, which is beneficially controlled by Mr. Isaza Tuzman. For these services, we paid KIT Capital aggregate fees of $477,750 in 2009 and $573,284 in 2008 for these three individuals, of which $277,789 in 2009 and $289,652 in 2008 were paid to Mr. Isaza Tuzman and the remainder to other KIT Capital personnel dedicated full-time to KIT digital, as well as for employer taxes, healthcare costs, corporate fees and other expenses related to KIT Capital’s work with KIT digital.

Under the Executive Management Agreement with KIT Capital, dated as of December 18, 2007, the services of Mr. Isaza Tuzman and two non-executive personnel have been provided to us and our subsidiaries at an initial monthly rate of $50,800, with an incentive bonus equal to the greater of (i) the preceding 12

13


 
 

months’ base compensation or (ii) the previous month’s monthly installment of base compensation multiplied by 12 if we achieve two consecutive quarters of profitability or our total monthly revenue equals or exceeds $6.0 million. The Management Agreement commenced on January 9, 2008 and expires on January 9, 2011, unless sooner terminated or extended by mutual agreement.

Under the Management Agreement, we issued to KIT Capital stock options to purchase 60,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $6.11 per share, of which 20,000 options vested as of January 9, 2008, and the remainder vest in equal monthly increments over a period of three years. We also established a “phantom” stock plan, pursuant to which we granted “phantom” shares equal to 60,000 shares of common stock vesting in equal monthly increments over a three-year period.

In addition, under the Management Agreement, KIT Capital received the right to: (a) purchase up to 5,100,000 shares of series A preferred stock from the holders of such shares; (b) purchase from us (i) up to $5.0 million of our common stock at a price per share of no higher than a 15% premium to the closing price of the common stock on December 18, 2007, and (ii) up to an additional $10.0 million of our common stock at a price not exceeding 90% of the five-day trailing weighted average trading price of the common stock at the time of purchase; and (c) include any such purchased shares of preferred stock and common stock in a registration statement filed by us with the SEC.

Notwithstanding these agreements, subsequent to the date of the Management Agreement, (a) we effected the automatic conversion of all then outstanding shares of series A preferred stock into 11,429 shares of common stock, thereby preventing KIT Capital from purchasing such shares, (b) we requested KIT Capital to waive its registration rights in respect of its purchase of 1,008,572 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase a like number of shares in our May 2008 financing, and (c) at the recommendation of the Company’s financial advisor, KIT Capital waived its right to purchase an additional $10.0 million in securities due to the potential negative effect on the market price with such a large controlling stockholder. For facilitating these corporate actions and waiving its rights as described above, and for KIT Capital’s investment of $5.0 million at a time when similar third-party financing transactions were unavailable and we required such funds in connection with pending acquisition transactions, we issued to KIT Capital a warrant to purchase 580,358 shares of our common stock (representing 65% warrant coverage on KIT Capital’s investment, as compared to 100% warrant coverage in the May 2008 financing transaction), for a term of five years commencing on December 31, 2008, at an exercise price of $11.90 per share, subject to the occurrence of certain events that could potentially reduce the exercise price to $5.60 per share.

The Management Agreement provides that upon termination of the agreement or after the expiration date for any reason, except cause (as defined in the Management Agreement), we are required to pay KIT Capital, in addition to any other payments due, a cash severance payment equal to the greater of (i) the total amount paid to KIT Capital during the preceding 12 months, including base compensation and all bonuses, or (ii) the previous month’s installment of base compensation multiplied by 12.

Gavin Campion Employment Agreement.  On March 16, 2008, we entered into an employment agreement with Gavin Campion to serve as our President. Pursuant to the terms of his agreement, Mr. Campion will serve as our President for an indefinite term, unless terminated by either party upon no less than 30 days written notice. If the agreement is terminated by Mr. Campion (or by us for the reasons specified below) prior to two years of consecutive service (April 1, 2010), Mr. Campion will be required to reimburse us for all expenses related to his employment. Mr. Campion’s initial base compensation under the agreement is fixed at $200,000 (inclusive of his transportation and housing allowance). Mr. Campion also received stock options to purchase 34,286 shares of our common stock upon entering into the agreement. We are entitled to terminate Mr. Campion without advance notice and without the payment of any benefits upon the occurrence of certain events, including if Mr. Campion engages in fraud, dishonesty or any other act of material misconduct in the performance of his duties on our behalf, or Mr. Campion violates any material provision of his employment agreement which is not cured under any applicable cure period allowable under the agreement.

2004 Stock Option Plan

In April 2004, our board of directors adopted a stock option plan (the “2004 Option Plan”). Pursuant to this plan, which expires on April 1, 2014, incentive stock options or non-qualified options to purchase an

14


 
 

aggregate of 28,572 shares of common stock may be issued, as adjusted. The plan may be administered by our board of directors or by a committee to which administration of the plan, or part of the plan, may be delegated by our board of directors. Options granted under this plan are not generally transferable by the optionee except by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, and are exercisable during the lifetime of the optionee only by such optionee. Options granted under the plan vest in such increments as is determined by our board of directors or designated committee. To the extent that options are vested, they must be exercised within a maximum of three months of the end of the optionee's status as an employee, director or consultant, or within a maximum of 12 months after such optionee's termination or by death or disability, but in no event later than the expiration of the option term. The exercise price of all stock options granted under the plan will be determined by our board of directors or designated committee. With respect to any participant who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of our outstanding capital stock, the exercise price of any incentive stock option granted must equal at least 110% of the fair market value on the grant date.

In November 2006, our board of directors increased the number of shares which may be issued under the 2004 Option Plan to an aggregate of 228,572 shares of common stock. The number of shares reserved under the 2004 Option Plan was subsequently increased to 342,858 shares effective April 3, 2007.

To date, we have 80,000 options outstanding under the 2004 Option Plan, of which 60,000 options were issued to KIT Capital, Ltd. pursuant to the terms of the Executive Management Agreement, dated as of December 18, 2007. As of December 31, 2009, the following options have been granted under our 2004 Option Plan:

2008 Incentive Stock Plan

In March 2008, our board of directors adopted the KIT digital, Inc. 2008 Incentive Stock Plan (the “2008 Incentive Plan”), and initially reserved 400,000 shares of common stock for issuance. Our board of directors voted unanimously to adopt an amendment to the 2008 Incentive Plan later that year, providing for an additional 457,143 shares of common stock available for future grants under the 2008 Incentive Plan. The holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock approved the amendment to our 2008 Incentive Plan at our stockholders meeting held on November 6, 2008. In November 2009, our board of directors voted unanimously to increase the number of shares which may be issued under the 2008 Incentive Plan by an aggregate of 2,642,857 shares to a new total of 3,500,000 shares of common stock, subject to approval by our stockholders at this Meeting. For additional information about our 2008 Incentive Plan, see “Proposal No. 3 — Amendment to 2008 Incentive Stock Plan.”

Through December 31, 2009, we have granted an aggregate of 819,639 options under the 2008 Incentive Plan, including the following grants to executive officers and directors:

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

This Audit Committee Report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or subject to Regulation 14A or 14C under the Exchange Act, or to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any of the Company’s previous filings under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act that might incorporate future filings, including this Proxy Statement, in whole or in part, this report shall not be incorporated by reference into any such filings.

Composition and Charter

The Audit Committee of the board of directors is currently composed of four directors, all of whom satisfy the independence standards for Audit Committee members under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market, and operates under a written charter. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is available to stockholders on the Company’s website.

Responsibilities

The responsibilities of the Audit Committee include engaging an accounting firm to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Management is responsible for the Company’s internal controls and financial reporting process. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and for issuing an opinion thereon. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to oversee these processes and the Company’s internal controls. The Audit Committee does not prepare or audit the Company’s financial statements or certify their accuracy.

Review with Management and Independent Registered Public Accountants

In this context, the Audit Committee has met and held discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Management represented to the Audit Committee that the Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended, as adopted by the PCAOB in Rule 3200T.

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm also provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and the Audit Committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm, Grant Thornton LLP, the firm’s independence.

Summary

Based upon the Audit Committee’s discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm and the Audit Committee’s review of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the representations of management, and the report of the independent registered public accounting firm to the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee recommended that the board of directors include the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the SEC.

This report is submitted by the Audit Committee.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO
INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK FROM 30,000,000
SHARES TO 80,000,000 SHARES

Our board of directors has unanimously approved an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation which would increase the total authorized number of shares of our common stock from 30,000,000 shares to 80,000,000 shares.

The amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation will increase the authorized common stock by amending and restating the first sentence of Article FOURTH of the Certificate of Incorporation, so that, as amended, it will read as follows:

“The total number of shares of capital stock which the Corporation shall have the authority to issue shall be 80,000,000 shares of Common Stock having a par value of $0.001 per share.”

The Certificate of Amendment will only become effective if our stockholders holding a majority of our outstanding common stock approve it.

As of August 16, 2010, the authorized capital stock of the Company consisted of 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock. As of August 16, 2010:

23,230,279 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding,
840,629 shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding stock options,
323,972 shares were reserved for future issuance under our 2004 Stock Option Plan and 2008 Incentive Stock Plan, and
1,477,884 shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding warrants.

Accordingly, as of August 16, 2010, an aggregate of 25,872,764 shares of our common stock, out of 30,000,000 shares authorized, were issued and outstanding or reserved for issuance, leaving only 4,127,236 shares available for future issuance.

The increase in the authorized shares of our common stock is intended to provide our board of directors with authority, without further action of the stockholders, to issue the additional shares of common stock from time to time as the board of directors deems necessary. The board of directors believes it is desirable to have the ability to issue such additional shares of common stock from time to time to provide flexibility in addressing the financing needs of the Company and for general corporate purposes. The board of directors believes it is desirable to have the ability to issue such additional shares of common stock from time to time to provide flexibility in addressing the strategic and liquidity needs of the company, including but not limited to shelf registrations, acquisitions of businesses and the issuance of stock to prospective buyers of the company.

The increase in the authorized number of shares could also deter unwanted takeovers, in that additional shares could be issued (according to the parameters of applicable law) in one or more transacations that could make an unwanted change of control more difficult. However, the board of directors is not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, of a hostile takeover of our Company, and this prospectus is not being presented with the intent that it be utilized as a type of anti-takeover device.

19


 
 

Vote Needed for Approval

The affirmative vote by the holders of at least a majority of our outstanding common stock is required for approval and adoption of the proposed amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized shares of our common stock from 30,000,000 to 80,000,000 shares. Any abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” this proposal. This amendment, if approved, would become effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which we expect to accomplish as soon as practicable after the approval is obtained.

The board of directors recommends that stockholders vote FOR the amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock.

PROPOSAL NO. 3

AMENDMENT TO 2008 INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN

Proposal

The board of directors of the Company unanimously approved an amendment to the KIT digital, Inc. 2008 Incentive Stock Plan on November 9, 2009, subject to stockholder approval, to increase the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2008 Incentive Plan by an aggregate of 2,642,857 shares to a new total of 3,500,000 shares.

The proposed increase in the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2008 Incentive Plan is for purposes of establishing a reserve for stock option grants to employees of the Company and others pursuant to the terms of the 2008 Incentive Plan.

Background and Purpose

In light of recent acquisition and financing activities by us which increased the total number of outstanding shares of our common stock, our board of directors believed in order to (i) bring the number of authorized shares of common stock available for future grant under the 2008 Incentive Plan into proportion with the recently increased number of outstanding shares and (ii) attract and retain the services of executives and other key employees, it was necessary for us to have the ability and flexibility to provide a compensation package which compares favorably with those offered by other companies and accordingly, voted unanimously to adopt the amendment to the 2008 Incentive Plan, providing for an additional 2,642,857 authorized, unissued shares of common stock available for future grants under the 2008 Incentive Plan.

On May 8, 2010, our board of directors approved the issuance of stock options to purchase an aggregate of 2,141,013 shares of common stock under the 2008 Incentive Plan, at an exercise price of $12.36 per share (reflecting the previous trading day’s closing price), subject to approval of this Proposal No. 3. These stock options carry a four-year quarterly vesting term and a five-year exercise term. As of August 16, 2010, the total number of shares underlying the Company’s outstanding employee stock options represents less than 14% of the Company’s total outstanding shares of common stock. Our board of directors had not approved a substantial issuance of stock options since June 2008. Our board of directors approved the issuance of the 2,141,013 stock options to (a) account for the addition of more than 200 staff members since the last approved issuance of stock options, (b) incentivize all staff for future performance, and (c) adjust existing employees’ option levels to account for dilution in the Company’s total shares outstanding that has occurred over time. Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, Gavin Campion and Robin Smyth, our executive officers, did not receive any new option grants as part of this issuance. On August 14, 2010, the board of directors, upon recommendation of management, authorized the amendment of the stock options issued on May 8, 2010 to reduce the exercise price of such options to $8.05 per share (the previous trading day's closing price). The Company’s board of directors felt that this reduction in strike price was vital to maintaining employee morale, particularly in the context of the long-delayed issuance of options for the two previous years and the material decline in the Company’s stock price which occurred immediately after the issuance of these options on May 8, 2010. The reduction of the exercise price did not apply to the options held by Messrs. Isaza Tuzman, Campion or Smyth.

Set forth below is a summary of the 2008 Incentive Plan, but this summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2008 Incentive Plan, which has been filed with the SEC, and any stockholder who wishes to obtain a copy of the 2008 Incentive Plan may do so by written request to KIT digital, Inc., 168 Fifth Avenue, Suite 302, New York, New York 10010, Attention: Mr. Robin Smyth, Chief Financial Officer.

Under the 2008 Incentive Plan, options may be granted which are intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or which are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options. In addition, direct grants of stock or restricted stock may be awarded.

Material Terms and Conditions

Purpose.  The primary purpose of the 2008 Incentive Plan is to attract and retain the best available personnel in order to promote the success of our business and to facilitate the ownership of our stock by employees and others who provide services to us.

21


 
 

Administration.  The 2008 Incentive Plan is administered by our board of directors, provided that the board may delegate such administration to the Compensation Committee.

Eligibility.  Under the 2008 Incentive Plan, options may be granted to employees, officers, directors or consultants, as provided in the 2008 Incentive Plan.

Terms of Options.  The term of each option granted under the 2008 Incentive Plan will be contained in a stock option agreement between the optionee and us and such terms will be determined by the board of directors consistent with the provisions of the 2008 Incentive Plan, including the following:

Purchase Price.  The purchase price of the common stock subject to each incentive stock option will not be less than the fair market value (as set forth in the 2008 Incentive Plan), or in the case of the grant of an incentive stock option to a principal stockholder, not less that 110% of fair market value of such common stock at the time such option is granted.
Vesting.  The dates on which each option (or portion thereof) will be exercisable and the conditions precedent to such exercise, if any, will be fixed by the board of directors, in its discretion, at the time such option is granted. Unless otherwise provided in the grant agreement, in the event of a change of control (as set forth in the 2008 Incentive Plan), 50% of the vesting restrictions will terminate.
Expiration.  Any option granted to an employee will become exercisable over a period of no longer than five years. No option will in any event be exercisable after five years from, and no Incentive Stock Option granted to a ten percent stockholder will become exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date of the option.
Transferability.  No option will be transferable, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and any option may be exercised during the lifetime of the optionee only by such optionee. No option granted under the 2008 Incentive Plan shall be subject to execution, attachment or other process.
Option Adjustments.  In the event of any change in the outstanding stock by reason of a stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of shares, recapitalization, merger, or similar event, the board or the committee may adjust proportionally (a) the number of shares of common stock (i) reserved under the 2008 Incentive Plan, (ii) available for Incentive Stock Options and Nonstatutory Options and (iii) covered by outstanding stock awards or restricted stock purchase offers; (b) the stock prices related to outstanding grants; and (c) the appropriate fair market value and other price determinations for such grants. In the event of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the board or the committee will be authorized to issue or assume stock options, whether or not in a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code applies, and other grants by means of substitution of new grant agreements for previously issued grants or an assumption of previously issued grants.
Termination, Modification and Amendment.  The board may, insofar as permitted by law, from time to time, suspend or terminate the 2008 Incentive Plan or revise or amend it in any respect whatsoever, except that without the approval of the stockholders, no such revision or amendment may (i) increase the number of shares subject to the 2008 Incentive Plan, (ii) decrease the price at which grants may be granted, (iii) materially increase the benefits to participants, or (iv) change the class of persons eligible to receive grants under the 2008 Incentive Plan; provided no such action may alter or impair the rights and obligations under any option, or stock award, or restricted stock purchase offer outstanding as of the date thereof without the written consent of the participant.

The board of directors recommends that stockholders vote FOR the amendment to the 2008 Incentive Stock Plan.

PROPOSAL NO. 4

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

The Audit Committee annually considers and selects the Company’s independent registered public accountants. On March 7, 2010, the Audit Committee selected Grant Thornton LLP to act as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2010.

The persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote to ratify the selection of Grant Thornton as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2010, unless otherwise directed by the stockholders. Stockholder ratification of Grant Thornton as the Company’s independent registered public accountants is not required by the Company’s by-laws, or otherwise. However, the Company is submitting the selection of Grant Thornton to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders do not ratify the selection of Grant Thornton as the Company’s independent registered public accountants, the Audit Committee will reconsider the selection of such independent registered public accountants. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee may, in its discretion, direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accountant at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.

The board of directors recommends a vote FOR the ratification of the selection of Grant Thornton LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2010.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year, and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with the pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date. The Audit Committee may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

The Audit Committee of the board of directors has selected Grant Thornton LLP to act as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the current fiscal year. They have served as accountants for the Company since October 2, 2009. Pursuant to Proposal No. 4, the stockholders of the Company are being asked to ratify this selection.

As the Company’s independent registered public accountants, Grant Thornton was engaged to conduct quarterly reviews of the Company; to conduct an audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the full year 2009; and to prepare the federal and state tax returns of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2009. Representatives of Grant Thornton are expected to attend the Meeting in order to respond to questions from stockholders and will have the opportunity to make a statement.

PROXIES AND VOTING AT THE MEETING

Each signed and returned proxy will be voted in accordance with any instructions of the stockholder(s) executing the proxy. A proxy signed without instructions will be voted in accordance with the board’s recommendations. If a stockholder attends the Meeting and votes in person, his or her proxy will not be counted. A signed proxy may be revoked at any time before it is exercised, either in person or by giving written notice of revocation to the Secretary of the Company at the address on the first page of this Proxy Statement.

Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to the stockholders for approval. No vote may be taken unless a quorum (i.e., a majority of the common stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote) is present at the Meeting in person or by proxy. The nine nominees for election as directors at the Meeting who receive the greatest number of votes properly cast for the election of directors shall be elected the directors of the Company. The ratification of the selection of Grant Thornton LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2010 and the approval of any other matter as may properly come before the meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority in interest of the stock represented and entitled to vote at the meeting. Broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, but are not counted for purposes of determining the result of any vote. Abstentions are counted in determining the presence of a quorum and have the effect of a vote against a proposal.

The board has fixed August 25, 2010, as the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the Meeting. On that date, there were 23,106,183 shares of common stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote.

24


 
 

OTHER MATTERS

The board knows of no other matters that may come before the Meeting. If any other matters should properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote in accordance with their judgment on such matters. Such discretionary authority is conferred by the proxy.

All costs of this solicitation, which is being made principally by mail, but which may be supplemented by telephone or personal contacts by the Company’s directors, officers, and employees without additional compensation, will be borne by the Company. Brokers will be requested to forward proxy soliciting material to the beneficial owners of the stock held in such brokers’ names, and the Company will reimburse them for their expenses incurred in complying with the Company’s request.

In the Company’s filings with the SEC, information is sometimes “incorporated by reference.” This means that the Company is referring you to information that has previously been filed with the SEC, so the information should be considered as part of the filing you are reading.

The Company’s policy is to encourage its board members to attend the Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
