· Every “3 Years” for frequency of shareholder advisory vote regarding compensation awarded to name executive officers; and

7. What shares can I vote?

Each share of our Common Stock and Class B common stock issued and outstanding as of the close of business on the Record Date for the 2017 Annual Meeting is entitled to be voted on all items being voted on at the Annual Meeting. You may vote all shares owned by you as of the Record Date, including (i) shares held directly in your name as the shareholder of record, and (ii) shares held for you as the beneficial owner in street name through a broker, bank, trustee, or other nominee.

Notwithstanding, there were no shares of Class B common stock outstanding as of the Record Date.

9. What is the difference between holding shares as a shareholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Most of our shareholders hold their shares through a stockbroker, bank or other nominee rather than directly in their own name. There are some important distinctions between shares held of record and those beneficially owned.

Shareholder of Record

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record, and the proxy materials were sent directly to you by Social Reality. As the shareholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to Social Reality or to vote in person at the Annual Meeting. Social Reality has enclosed herewith a proxy card for you to use. You may also vote on the internet or by telephone, as below under the heading “How can I vote my shares without attending the Annual Meeting?” You may also vote on the internet or by telephone, as below under the heading “How can I vote my shares without attending the Annual Meeting?”

Beneficial Owner

If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer, trust, or other similar organization, like the vast majority of our shareholders, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name, and the Proxy materials were forwarded to you by that organization. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee how to vote your shares, and you are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting.

Since a beneficial owner is not the shareholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the broker, bank, trustee, or nominee that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the meeting. If you do not wish to vote in person or you will not be attending the Annual Meeting, you may vote by proxy. You may vote by proxy over the internet or by telephone, as described below under the heading “How can I vote my shares without attending the Annual Meeting?”

10. If I am a Shareholder of Record, how do I vote?

If you are a shareholder of record, there are four ways to vote:

· In person. You may vote in person at the Annual Meeting by requesting a ballot from an usher when you arrive. You must bring valid picture identification such as a driver’s license or passport and may be requested to provide proof of stock ownership as of the Record Date.

· Via the Internet. You may vote by proxy via the Internet by following the instructions provided on the proxy card.

· By Telephone. You may vote by proxy by calling the toll free number found on the proxy card.

· By Mail. You may vote by proxy by filling out the proxy card and returning it in the envelope provided.

11. If I am a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, how do I vote?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, there are four ways to vote:

·	In person. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and wish to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a “legal proxy” from the organization that holds your shares. A legal proxy is a written document that will authorize you to vote your shares held in street name at the Annual Meeting. Please contact the organization that holds your shares for instructions regarding obtaining a legal proxy.
	You must bring a copy of the legal proxy to the Annual Meeting and ask for a ballot from an usher when you arrive. You must also bring valid picture identification such as a driver’s license or passport. In order for your vote to be counted, you must hand both the copy of the legal proxy and your completed ballot to an usher to be provided to the inspector of election.
·	Via the Internet. You may vote by proxy via the Internet by following the instructions found in the proxy card. The availability of Internet voting may depend on the voting process of the organization that holds your shares.
·	By Telephone. You may vote by proxy by calling the toll free number found on the voting instruction form. The availability of telephone voting may depend on the voting process of the organization that holds your shares.
·	By Mail. You may vote by proxy by filling out the voting instruction form and returning it in the envelope provided.

3

12. How are proxies voted?

All shares represented by valid proxies received prior to the taking of the vote at the Annual Meeting will be voted and, where a shareholder specifies by means of the proxy a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares will be voted in accordance with the shareholder’s instructions.

13. What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?

Shareholders of Record. If you are a shareholder of record and you:

· Indicate when voting on the Internet or by telephone that you wish to vote as recommended by the Board; or

· Sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions, then the person named as proxy holder, Christopher Miglino, will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board on all matters presented in this Proxy Statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial Owners of Shares Held in Street Name. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions then, under applicable rules, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote on “routine” matters but cannot vote on “non-routine” matters. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, that organization will inform the inspector of election that it does not have the authority to vote on this matter with respect to your shares. This is generally referred to as a “broker non-vote.”

14. Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

You can change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the meeting. You can do this by casting a later proxy through any of the available methods described in the questions and answers. If you are a shareholder of record, you can also revoke your proxy by delivering a written notice of your revocation to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive office at 456 Seaton St., Los Angeles, California 90013. If you are a beneficial owner, you can change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee following the instructions they provided, or if you have obtained a legal proxy from your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

15. How many shares must be present or represented to conduct business at the Annual Meeting?

The quorum requirement for holding the Annual Meeting and transacting business is that holders of a majority of the voting power of our Class A and Class B common stock as of the Record Date must be present in person or represented by proxy. There are currently no outstanding shares of Class B common stock. Both abstentions and broker non-votes (described below) are counted for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

16. How are votes counted?

In the election of directors (Proposal Number 1), you may vote “FOR” all or some of the nominees or your vote may be “WITHHELD” with respect to one or more of the nominees.

With respect to the advisory vote on the frequency of holding future shareholder advisory votes regarding compensation awarded to named executive officers (Proposal Number 5), you may vote “1 YEAR,” “2 YEARS,” “3 YEARS,” or “ABSTAIN.” If you elect to “ABSTAIN,” the abstention does not count in the determination of which alternative receives the highest number of votes cast.

For the other items of business, you may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN,” if you elect to “ABSTAIN,” the abstention has the same effect as a vote “AGAINST.”

If you provide specific instructions with regard to certain items, your shares will be voted as you instruct on such items. If no instructions are indicated, the shares will be voted as recommended by the Board.

4

17. What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals?

In the election of directors (Proposal Number 1), the persons receiving the highest number of affirmative “FOR” votes at the Annual Meeting will be elected.

In the case of the following three proposals:

· The ratification of the appointment of RBSM LLP, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017 (Proposal Number 2);

· The approval pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(d), the issuance of shares of our Common Stock upon the conversion of the outstanding Debentures sold in the October 2017 Offering (proposal Number 3);

· approval of the 2016 compensation awarded to named executive officers, which is non-binding (Proposal Number 4);

the affirmative “FOR” vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of our common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon is required for approval.

In the case of the proposal to determine the frequency of future shareholder advisory votes regarding compensation awarded to named executive officers (Proposal Number 5), the frequency that receives the highest number of votes cast will be deemed to be the frequency selected by shareholders.

If you hold shares beneficially in street name and do not provide your broker with voting instructions, your shares may constitute “broker non-votes.” Broker non-votes occur on a matter when a broker is not permitted to vote on that matter without instructions from the beneficial owner and instructions are not given. These matters are referred to as “non-routine” matters. All of the matters scheduled to be voted on at the Annual Meeting are “non-routine,” except for the proposal to ratify the appointment of RBSM LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017.

18. How do Broker Non-Votes and Abstentions Effect the Voting Results

With respect to the election of directors (Proposal Number 1), under plurality voting, broker non-votes and abstentions would have no effect on determining the nominees elected.

With respect to the ratification of RBSM LLP., (Proposal Number 2), the approval of 2016 executive compensation (Proposal Number 3), and frequency of shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation (Proposal Number 4), shares that constitute broker non-votes are not considered votes cast on that proposal nor entitled to vote. Thus, broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of this matter, assuming that a quorum is obtained. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against.

With respect to the approval of the October 2017 Offering (Proposal Number 5), broker non-votes will not be counted as shares entitled to vote and will have no effect on the results of the votes. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against.

Broker non-votes and abstentions are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present.

Please note that brokers may not vote your shares on the election of directors, certain executive compensation matters, amendments to the Certificate, or certain corporate governance matters in the absence of your specific instructions. In order to minimize the number of broker non-votes, the Company encourages you to vote or to provide voting instructions with respect to each proposal to the organization that holds your shares by carefully following the instructions provided in the proxy card or voting instruction form.

19. Is cumulative voting permitted for the election of directors?

No. You may not cumulate your votes for the election of directors.

5

20. Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

The cost of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing this Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card, the Notice of Internet Availability, and the cost of soliciting proxies relating to the Annual Meeting, will be borne by the Company. The Company may request banks, brokers and other third parties to solicit their customers who beneficially own Common Stock listed of record in the name of such bank, broker or other third party, and the Company will reimburse such banks, brokers and third parties for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for such solicitations. The solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by telephone, facsimile, Internet and personal solicitation by directors, officers and other employees of the Company, but no additional compensation will be paid to such individuals.

21. What happens if additional matters are presented at the Annual Meeting?

Other than the five (5) items of business described in this proxy statement, we are not aware of any other business to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. If you grant a proxy, the person named as proxy holder, Christopher Miglino will have the discretion to vote your shares on any additional matters properly presented for a vote at the meeting. If for any reason, the nominee is not available as a candidate for director, the person named as proxy holder will vote your proxy for such other candidate or candidates as may be nominated by the Board.

22. Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting, which will also be available on our website.

ATTENDING THE ANNUAL MEETING

23. How can I attend the Annual Meeting?

If you do not provide photo identification or comply with the other procedures outlined above, you will not be admitted to the Annual Meeting.

Shareholder Proposals:

Shareholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in our proxy statement and for consideration at the next annual meeting of shareholders by submitting their proposals in writing to Social Reality’s Corporate Secretary in a timely manner. For a shareholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for our 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Corporate Secretary of Social Reality must receive the written proposal at our principal executive offices no later than 120 calendar days before the anniversary of the date of the definitive proxy statement filed for the 2017 Annual Meeting; provided, however, that in the event that we hold our 2018 Annual Meeting of shareholders more than 30 days before or after the one-year anniversary date of the 2017 Annual Meeting, the deadline is a reasonable time before we begin to print and send our 2018 notices for the 2018 Annual Meeting. Such proposals also must comply with any applicable SEC regulations regarding the inclusion of shareholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials. Proposals should be addressed to:

Social Reality, Inc.

Attn: Corporate Secretary

456 Seaton St.

Los Angeles, California 90013

Our bylaws also establish an advance notice procedure for shareholders who wish to present a proposal before an annual meeting of shareholders but do not intend for the proposal to be included in our proxy statement. Our bylaws provide that the only business that may be conducted at an annual meeting is business that is (1) specified in the notice of a meeting given by or at the direction of the Board, (2) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board, or (3) a proper matter for shareholder action under the Delaware General Corporation Law that has been properly brought before the meeting by a shareholder entitled to vote at the annual meeting who has delivered timely written notice to our Corporate Secretary, which notice must contain the information specified in our bylaws. To be timely for our 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, our Corporate Secretary must receive the written notice at our principal executive offices:

· not earlier than the close of business on September 1, 2018, and

· not later than the close of business on October 1, 2018.

In the event that we hold our 2018 Annual Meeting of shareholders more than 30 days before or after the one-year anniversary date of the 2017 Annual Meeting, then notice of a shareholder proposal that is not intended to be included in our proxy statement must be received not later than the close of business on the earlier of the following two dates:

· the 10th day following the day on which notice of the meeting date is mailed, or

· the 10th day following the day on which public disclosure of the meeting date is made.

If a shareholder who has notified us of his or her intention to present a proposal at an annual meeting does not appear to present his or her proposal at such meeting, we are not required to present the proposal for a vote at such meeting.

Nomination of Director Candidates:

You may propose director candidates for consideration by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Any such recommendations should include the nominee’s name and qualifications for membership on the Board, and should be directed to the Corporate Secretary of Social Reality at the address set forth above. For additional information regarding shareholder recommendations for director candidates, see “Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance—Consideration of Director Nominees—Shareholder Nominations” on page 15 of this proxy statement.

In addition, our bylaws permit shareholders to nominate directors for election at an annual meeting of shareholders. To nominate a director, the shareholder must provide the information required by our bylaws. In addition, the shareholder must give timely notice to our Corporate Secretary in accordance with our bylaws, which, in general, require that the notice be received by our Corporate Secretary within the time period described above under “Shareholder Proposals” for shareholder proposals that are intended to be included in our proxy statement.

DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Board, upon recommendation by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, has nominated six (6) of our existing directors for re-election as directors, each to hold office until the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders or until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee determined that it would be in the best interests of our company, from both a focus and functionality standpoint, to reduce the size of our board of directors from eight (8) to six (6) members, all of whom have professional expertise in areas of our business and operations. Accordingly, the committee did not recommend the re-nomination of two of our existing directors, Messrs. Hardy L. Thomas and Matthew Weiss. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

Code of Ethics

We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of honest and ethical conduct in running our business efficiently, serving our stockholders interests and maintaining our integrity in the marketplace. To further this commitment, we have adopted our Code of Conduct and Business Code of Ethics, which applies to all our directors, officers and employees. To assist in its governance, our Board has formed three standing committees composed entirely of independent directors, Audit, Compensation and Corporate Governance and Nominating committees. A discussion of each committee’s function is set forth below.

Bylaws

Our bylaws, the charters of each Board committee, the independent status of a majority of our board of directors, our Code of Conduct and Business Code of Ethics provide the framework for our corporate governance. Copies of our bylaws, committee charters, Code of Conduct and Business Code of Ethics may be found on our website at www.SRAX.com. Copies of these materials also are available without charge upon written request to our Corporate Secretary at 456 Seaton St., Los Angeles, California 90013.

Board of directors

The board of directors oversees our business affairs and monitors the performance of management. In accordance with our corporate governance principles, the board of directors does not involve itself in day-to-day operations. The directors keep themselves informed through discussions with the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer and by reading the reports and other materials that we send them and by participating in board of directors and committee meetings. Directors are elected for a term of one year. Our directors hold office until their successors have been elected and duly qualified unless the director resigns or by reason of death or other cause is unable to serve in the capacity of director. If any director resigns, dies or is otherwise unable to serve out his or her term, or if the Board increases the number of directors, the Board may fill any vacancy by a vote of a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum exists. A director elected to fill a vacancy shall serve for the unexpired term of his or her predecessor. Vacancies occurring by reason of the removal of directors without cause may only be filled by vote of the stockholders.

Each director attended at least 75% of all meetings of the Board. Each director attended at least 75% of meetings of committees on which the director served. The Board currently holds regularly scheduled meetings and calls for special meetings or acts through unanimous written consents as necessary. Meetings of the Board may be held telephonically. Directors are expected to attend all Board meetings and meetings of the committees of the Board on which they serve and to spend the time needed and meet as frequently as necessary to properly discharge their duties. Information with regard to committee meetings is provided for below. Although attendance of meetings is encouraged, we do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by directors at Board and committee meetings.

Board leadership structure and Board’s role in risk oversight

Mr. Miglino serves as both the Chairman of our Board of Directors and our Chief Executive Officer. We do not have a lead independent director. Given the small size of the Board and limited number of executive officers, the Board has determined that a lead independent director is currently not necessary.

13

Risk is inherent with every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. We face a number of risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk, operational risk, strategic risk and reputation risk. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks we face, while the Board, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, the board of directors has the responsibility to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. To do this, the board of directors meets regularly to review Social Reality's risks. Our Chief Financial Officer generally attends the Board meetings and is available to address any questions or concerns raised by any member of the Board on risk management and any other matter. The independent members of the Board work together to provide strong, independent oversight of our management and affairs through the Board's standing committees and, when necessary, special meetings of independent directors. Our independent directors may meet at any time in their sole discretion without any other directors or representatives of management present. Each independent director has access to the members of our management team or other employees as well as full access to our books and records. We have no policy limiting, and exert no control over, meetings of our independent directors.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2016, Messrs. Savas and CaSelle all served for on the Compensation Committee. None of the members on the Compensation Committee during the year end December 31, 2016 has been an officer or employee of Social Reality. None of our executive officers serve on the Board or compensation committee of a company that has an executive officer that serves on our Board or the Compensation Committee.

Board committees

The Board of Directors has standing Audit, Compensation, Compensation and Corporate Governance and Nominating committees. Each committee has a written charter. The charters are available on our website at www.SRAX.com. All committee members are independent directors. Information concerning the current membership and function of each committee is as follows:

Director	Audit Committee Member	Compensation Committee Member	Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee Member
Marc Savas		ü(1)	ü
Malcolm CasSelle		ü	ü(1)
Robert Jordan	ü(1)

⁽¹⁾

denotes chairperson.

In 2015 we established a Nominating and Compensation Committee of the board. In August 2016 in preparation of the uplisting of our Common Stock to the Nasdaq Capital Market, the committee was disbanded and the Board formed separate (i) Compensation, and (ii) Corporate Governance and Nominating committees as well as (iii) an Audit Committee.

Independence

Our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market. As such, we are subject to the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) director independence standards. In accordance with these standards, in determining independence the Board affirmatively determines whether a director has a "material relationship" with Social Reality that would compromise his or her independence from management or would cause him or her to fail to meet the NASDAQ’s specific independence criteria. When assessing the "materiality" of a director's relationship with Social Reality, the Board considers all relevant facts and circumstances, not merely from the director's standpoint, but from that of the persons or organizations with which the director has an affiliation, and, where applicable, the frequency and regularity of the services, and whether the services are being carried out at arm's length in the ordinary course of business. Material relationships can include commercial, consulting, charitable, familial and other relationships. A relationship is not material if, in the Board's judgment, it is not inconsistent with the NASDAQ’S director independence standards and it does not compromise a director's independence from management.

Applying the NASDAQ’s standards, the Board has determined that of the electors nominated for reelection, Messrs. Savas, CasSelle, Jordan and Ms. DiClaudio are each “independent” as that term is defined by the NASDAQ’s standards. In addition to our executive directors (Miglino and Nelson), all four independent directors are up for reelection at the 2017 Annual Meeting.

Communications with Directors

Interested parties are invited to communicate with the non-management members of the Board by sending correspondence to the non-management members of the Board of Directors, c/o Corporate Secretary, to 456 Seaton St., Los Angeles, CA 90013.

The Corporate Secretary will review all such correspondence and forward to the non-management members of the Board a summary of all such correspondence received during the prior month and copies of all such correspondence that deals with the functions of the Board or committees thereof or that otherwise is determined to require attention of the non-management directors. Non-management directors may at any time review the log of all correspondence received by us that is addressed to the non-management members of the Board and request copies of any such correspondence. Concerns relating to accounting, internal controls or auditing matters will immediately be brought to the attention of the Chairman of the Audit Committee.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee assists the board in fulfilling its oversight responsibility relating to:

· the integrity of our financial statements;

· our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; and

· the qualifications and independence of our independent registered public accountants.

The Audit Committee has the ultimate authority to select, evaluate and, where appropriate, replace the independent auditor, approve all audit engagement fees and terms, and engage outside advisors, including its own counsel, as it deems necessary to carry out its duties. The Audit Committee is also responsible for performing other related responsibilities set forth in its charter.

Following the resignation of Mr. Anthony William Packer from the Board in November 2017, he Audit Committee is currently composed of one director, Mr. Robert Jordan. The Audit Committee had two meetings during the year end December 31, 2016.

The Board has determined that Robert Jordan qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC rules. An audit committee financial expert is a person who can demonstrate the following attributes: (1) an understanding of generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements; (2) the ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves; (3) experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company’s financial statements, or experience actively supervising one or more persons engaged in such activities; (4) an understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and (5) an understanding of audit committee functions.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee assists the Board in:

· determining, in executive session at which our chief executive officer is not present, the compensation for our CEO or president, if such person is acting as the CEO;

· discharging its responsibilities for approving and evaluating our officer compensation plans, policies and programs;

· reviewing and recommending to the Board regarding compensation to be provided to our employees and directors; and

· administering our equity compensation plan(s).

The Compensation Committee is charged with ensuring that our compensation programs are competitive, designed to attract and retain highly qualified directors, officers and employees, encourage high performance, promote accountability and assure that employee interests are aligned with the interests of our stockholders. The Compensation Committee is composed of two directors, each of whom has been determined by the Board to be independent within the meaning of Rule 5605 of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. The Compensation Committee had two meetings during the year end December 31, 2016. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for performing other related responsibilities set forth in its charter.

15

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee:

· assists the Board in selecting nominees for election to the Board;

· monitor the composition of the Board;

· develops and recommends to the Board, and annually reviews, a set of effective corporate governance policies and procedures applicable to our company; and

· regularly review the overall corporate governance of the Company and recommends improvements to the Board as necessary.

The purpose of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is to assess the performance of the Board and to make recommendations to the Board from time to time, or whenever it shall be called upon to do so, regarding nominees for the Board and to ensure our compliance with appropriate corporate governance policies and procedures. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is composed of two directors, each of whom has been determined by the Board to be independent within the meaning of Rule 5605 of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee had two meetings during the year end December 31, 2016. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee is also responsible for performing other related responsibilities set forth in its charter.

The Corporate Governance and Committee evaluates candidates for the Board. Candidates may come to the attention of the committee through current Board members, professional search firms, shareholders or other persons. The committee will consider nominees recommended by our shareholders. For additional information regarding the process for nominee submission and selection, see the “Shareholder Nominations” below.

Shareholder Nominations

Shareholders who would like to propose a candidate may do so by submitting the candidate’s name, resume and biographical information to the attention of our Corporate Secretary. All proposals for nomination received by the Corporate Secretary will be presented to the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee for appropriate consideration. It is the policy of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee to consider director candidates recommended by shareholders who appear to be qualified to serve on our Board. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee may choose not to consider an unsolicited recommendation if no vacancy exists on the Board and the committee does not perceive a need to increase the size of the Board. In order to avoid the unnecessary use of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee’s resources, the committee will consider only those director candidates recommended in accordance with the procedures set forth below. To submit a recommendation of a director candidate to the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, a shareholder should submit the following information in writing, addressed to the Corporate Secretary of Social Reality at our main office:

· the name and address of the person recommended as a director candidate;

· all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act;

· the written consent of the person being recommended as a director candidate to be named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected;

· as to the person making the recommendation, the name and address, as they appear on our books, of such person, and number of shares of our Class A common stock owned by such person; provided, however, that if the person is not a registered holder of our common stock, the person should submit his or her name and address along with a current written statement from the record holder of the shares that reflects the recommending person’s beneficial ownership of our common stock; and

· a statement disclosing whether the person making the recommendation is acting with or on behalf of any other person and, if applicable, the identity of such person.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Related Party Transactions Procedure

We review all known relationships and transactions in which Social Reality and our directors, executive officers, and significant stockholders or their immediate family members are participants to determine whether such persons have a direct or indirect interest. Our management, in consultation with our outside legal consultants, determines based on specific fact and circumstances whether Social Reality or a related party has a direct or indirect interest in these transactions. In addition, our directors and executive officers are required to notify us of any potential related party transactions and provide us with the information regarding such transactions.

If it is determined that a transaction is a related party transaction, the Audit Committee must review the transaction and either approve or disapprove it. In determining whether to approve or ratify a transaction with a related party, the Audit Committee will take into account all of the relevant facts and circumstances available to it, including, among any other factors it deems appropriate:

· the benefits to us of the transaction;

· the nature of the related party’s interest in the transaction;

· whether the transaction would impair the judgment of a director or executive officer to act in the best interests of Social Reality and our shareholders;

· the potential impact of the transaction on a director’s independence; and

· whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances.

Any member of the Audit Committee who is a related party with respect to a transaction under review may not participate in the deliberations or vote on the approval of the transaction.

Related Party Transactions

Employment agreements and how the executive’s compensation is determined

We are a party to an employment agreement with each of Messrs. Miglino, Hannan and Ms. DeRuggiero which provide the compensation arrangements with these individuals. Mr. Nelson's compensation is determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board in consultation with Mr. Miglino. For the year end 2016, Mr. Nelson was not paid any compensation. We have not engaged a compensation consultant or other consultant performing similar functions to advise our company on compensation arrangements for our executive officers and directors.

Employment Agreement with Mr. Miglino

We employ Christopher Miglino as our Chief Executive Officer for a term of four years pursuant to an employment agreement entered into on January 1, 2012. The employment agreement automatically renews for successive two year terms unless either party provides notice of non-renewal not later than three months before the conclusion of the then current term. As compensation for his services, Mr. Miglino is entitled to receive a base salary of $192,000 which is subject to an annual review. During 2012, in an effort to conserve our cash resources, Mr. Miglino agreed to a temporary reduction in his annual base salary to $60,000, which was increased to $90,000 during the fourth quarter of 2013. Mr. Miglino's annual base salary for the 2015 was $114,000. In November 2016, his salary deferral ended and he returned his compensation to the contracted levels. In addition, he is eligible to receive an annual bonus based upon the achievement of certain to-be-established goals fixed by the Board, which is payable in cash or non-cash compensation as determined by the Board, as well as a discretionary bonus as determined by the Board. Mr. Miglino is entitled to participate in all benefit plans we may offer, up to 45 days of paid vacation annually and reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in furtherance of our business.

The employment agreement may be terminated upon Mr. Miglino's death, by us with or without cause or by him with or without good reason. In the event of a termination as a result of Mr. Miglino's death, by him without good reason, or by us for cause, we are obligated to pay:

· the portion of his base salary which has been accrued prior to termination but which has not yet been paid;

· to the extent required by law, an amount equal to the value of his accrued but unused vacation days;

· the amount of any expenses properly incurred by him but which have not yet been reimbursed;

· the amount of any annual bonus related to the most recently completed fiscal year if not already paid, and providing the termination is not by us for cause;

· any accrued but unused vacation days; and

· any discretionary bonus previously awarded if not already paid and providing that the termination is not by us for cause.

We refer to these amounts as the “Miglino Accrued Obligations.” In addition, should we terminate Mr. Miglino's employment as a result of his disability, we are also obligated to pay him an amount equal to 24 months of his then base salary in addition to the Miglino Accrued Obligations. All such amounts are due promptly following termination. If we should terminate Mr. Miglino's employment without cause, or he terminates for good reason, in addition to the Miglino Accrued Obligations we are obligated to pay him a total amount equal to 24 months of his then current base salary, payable in accordance with our usual payroll practices, and continue to provide medical coverage for Mr. Miglino and his family, subject to his payment of a premium co-pay. In addition, the portion of any unvested or restricted securities then held by Mr. Miglino will vest and become immediately exercisable on the termination date.

For the purposes of the employment agreement, “cause” generally means:

· intentionally committing an unlawful act that materially harms us;

· gross negligence or willful failure or refusal to follow board directives;

· conviction of, or a guilty plea, to a felony or commitment of any act involving moral turpitude;

· a breach of any material provision of the employment agreement, or any nondisclosure or noncompetition agreement, including the hereinafter described proprietary information, inventions and competition agreement; or

· a breach of any material provision of our Code of Ethics and Conduct.

21

For the purposes of the employment agreement, “good reason” generally means:

· change in the principal location at which Mr. Miglino performs duties for us of more than 40 miles without his consent; or

· material change in the executive’s authority, functions, duties or responsibilities.

Mr. Miglino also executed separate proprietary information, inventions and competition agreement and an indemnification agreement with us.

Employment agreement with Ms. DeRuggiero

In October 17, 2015 we entered into an employment agreement with Erin DeRuggiero pursuant to which she was engaged to serve as our Chief Innovations Officer. This agreement replaced a prior 2012 employment agreement with Ms. DeRuggiero. The initial term of the agreement expired on October 19, 2017, subject to automatic 12 month extensions unless a non-renewal notice is received by either party at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the then current renewal term.

Our Equity Compensation Plans

2012, 2014 and 2016 Equity Compensation Plans

In January 2012, our board of directors and shareholders authorized the 2012 Equity Compensation Plan, which we refer to as the 2012 Plan, covering 600,000 shares of our Common Stock. On November 5, 2014, our board of directors approved the adoption of our 2014 Equity Compensation Plan (the " 2014 Plan ") and reserved 600,000 shares of our Common Stock for grants under this plan. On February 23, 2016, Board approved the adoption of our 2016 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2016 Plan”) and reserved 600,000 shares of our Common Stock for grants under this plan. The purpose of the 2012, 2014 and 2016 Plans is to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentive to our employees, directors and consultants and to promote the success of our company's business. The 2012, 2014 and 2016 Plans are administered by our Board. Plan grants may either be:

· incentive stock options (ISOs),

· non-qualified options (NSOs),

· awards of our common stock,

· stock appreciation rights (SARs),

· restricted stock units (RSUs),

· performance units,

· performance shares, and

· other stock-based awards.

Any option granted under the 2012, 2014 and 2016 Plans must provide for an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant, but the exercise price of any ISO granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our outstanding common stock must not be less than 110% of fair market value on the date of the grant. The plans further provide that with respect to ISOs the aggregate fair market value of the common stock underlying the options which are exercisable by any option holder during any calendar year cannot exceed $100,000. The exercise price of any NSO granted under the 2012, 2014 or 2016 Plans is determined by the Board at the time of grant, but must be at least equal to fair market value on the date of grant. The term of each plan option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by the board of directors or the compensation committee, provided that no option may be exercisable more than 10 years after the date of its grant and, in the case of an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of the Common Stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. The terms of grants of any other type of award under the 2012, 2014 or 2016 Plans is determined by the Board at the time of grant. Subject to the limitation on the aggregate number of shares issuable under the plans, there is no maximum or minimum number of shares as to which a stock grant or plan option may be granted to any person.

The October 2017 Offering included (i) $2,000,000 of Debentures (“A-1 Debentures”) and (ii) 333,335 Warrants (“A-1 Warrants”) issued pursuant to the exercise of a green shoe provision (“Green Shoe”) contained in the transaction documents for the sale of $5,000,000 of Debentures and Warrants issued in April 2017. The A-1 Debentures and A-1 Warrants issued pursuant to the Green Shoe were previously approved by our shareholders at a special meeting of the shareholders on June 23, 2017 (Please see Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 26, 2017). Accordingly, the we are requesting that the shareholders approve the remaining securities underlying the transaction generally, which consists of $3,180,157.78 of Debentures (“A-2 Debentures”) and 530,030 Warrants (“A-2 Warrants”) issued thereunder.  Additionally, in the event of an Optional Redemption (as defined below), the Company would be required to issue Series B Warrants (as defined below). The A-1 Debentures and A-2 Debentures are substantially the same except that the A-1 Debentures have a conversion price floor of $1.40 with regard to anti-dilution protection for subsequent equity sales at a price lower than 120% of the then applicable conversion price and the A-2 Debentures have a conversion price floor of $3.00 until such time as the Company receives shareholder approval for the transaction that is being sought hereunder pursuant to this Proposal 3. The A-1 Warrants and A-2 Warrants are identical. We have further agreed to hold this meeting of the shareholders on or prior to seventy-five (75) days following the date of the Securities Purchase Agreements to obtain shareholder approval in connection with the transaction, including, without limitation, to reduce the floor price with regard to the anti-dilution protection for subsequent equity sales to $1.40 (on par with the A-1 Debentures).

Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (“Chardan Capital”) acted as lead placement agent and Aspenwood Capital acted as co-placement agent ("Aspenwood"), in connection with the sale of the securities pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements. Pursuant to their respective engagement agreements, we paid Chardan Capital a cash commission of $149,021.25 and Aspenwood a cash commission of $70,000. We also issued Chardan Capital and Aspenwood, or their assigns, placement agent warrants to purchase an aggregate of 129,176 shares of Common Stock which have an initial exercise price of $3.75 per share (subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms therein) and a term of five and one half (5.5) years exercisable beginning six (6) months from the date of issuance, and placement agent warrants to purchase 54,161 shares of Common Stock which have an initial exercise price of $4.49 per share (subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms therein) and a term of five and one half (5.5) years exercisable beginning six (6) months from the date of issuance (collectively, “Placement Agent Warrants”). We will include the shares underlying the Placement Agent Warrants in the resale registration statement we expect to file.

Proceeds of Offering

The gross proceeds to us from the October 2017 Offering was approximately $5.2 million and net proceeds of $4.9 million after deducting placement agent fees but not including other estimated offering expenses. We utilized approximately $1.57 million in proceeds to satisfy a put obligation under a Common Stock purchase warrant issued in October 2014 and the balance is being used for general corporate purposes. We agreed to file a registration statement registering the resale of the shares of our Common Stock underlying the Debentures and the Warrants.

Description of the Debentures and Warrants Issued

The Debentures, which mature on April 21, 2020, pay interest in cash at the rate of 12.5% per annum, payable quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, beginning on January 1, 2018. Our obligations under the Debentures are secured pari passu with the debentures previously issued in April 2017 (“Prior Debentures”). The Debentures are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein. The Warrants are initially exercisable at $3.00 per share and, are subject to cashless exercise after six months if the shares underlying the Warrants are not subject to an effective resale registration statement. The Warrants also contain anti-dilution protection for subsequent equity sales for a price lower than the then applicable exercise price, with a floor of $1.40.

29

The conversion price of the Debentures and the exercise price of the Warrants are subject to adjustments upon certain events, including stock splits, stock dividends, subsequent equity transactions (other than specified exempt issuances), subsequent rights offerings, and fundamental transactions, subject to the $1.40 and $3.00 floor described above if and until this Proposal is approved by the shareholders). If we fail to timely deliver the shares of our Common Stock upon any conversion of the Debentures or exercise of the Warrants, we will be subject to certain buy-in provisions. Pursuant to the terms of the Debentures and Warrants, a holder will not have the right to convert any portion of the Debentures or exercise any portion of the Warrants if the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion or exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Debentures and the Warrants; provided that at the election of a holder and notice to us such percentage ownership limitation may be increased to 9.99%; provided that any increase will not be effective until the 61^st day after such notice is delivered from the holder to the Company.

Our obligations under the Debentures are secured by a second position security interest in our accounts receivable and a first position security interest in the balance of our assets, including our intellectual property, and we are subject to continued compliance with certain financial covenants. The Debentures are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our Class A common stock at an initial conversion price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment as hereinafter set forth. Subject to our compliance with certain equity conditions (as more fully set forth in the Debentures), upon 20 trading days' notice to the holders we have the right to redeem the Debentures in cash at a 120% premium during the first year and a 110% premium during the remaining term of the Debentures (“Optional Redemption”). Upon any optional redemption, we are obligated to issue the holder Series B Common Stock warrants (“Series B Warrants”), the terms of which will be identical to the Warrants, to purchase a number of shares of our Common Stock equal to 50% of the conversion shares issuable on an as-converted basis as if the principal amount of the Debenture had been converted immediately prior to the optional redemption. In the event of future financings by us, subject to certain exempt issuances, the holders have the right to cause us to allocate 20% of the proceeds we receive to redeem a portion of the principal amount of the then outstanding Debentures. We are also required to redeem the Debentures, at the holder’s right, upon our failure to maintain certain financial covenants as further described in the Debentures.

The Debentures also contain certain customary events of default (including, but not limited to, default in payment of principal or interest thereunder, breaches of covenants, agreements, representations or warranties thereunder, the occurrence of an event of default under certain material contracts of the Company, changes in control of the Company and the entering or filing of certain monetary judgments against the Company). Upon the occurrence of any such event of default, the outstanding principal amount of the Debenture for a premium, plus liquidated damages, interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash. The Company is also subject to certain negative covenants under the Debentures, including but not limited to, the creation of certain debt obligations, liens on Company assets, amending its charter documents, repayment or repurchase of securities or certain debt of the Company, or the payment of dividends.

Why do we need stockholder approval?

Our Common Stock is listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market and, as such, we are subject to the NASDAQ Stock Market Rules. NASDAQ Stock Market Rule 5635(d) is referred to as the “NASDAQ 20% Rule.” In order to comply with the NASDAQ 20% Rule and to satisfy conditions under the Securities Purchase Agreement, we are seeking shareholder approval for the transaction, including, without limitation, to reduce the floor price of the A-2 Debentures to $1.40 with regard to anti-dilution protection for subsequent equity sales by the Company (on par with the A-2 Debentures).

Vote Required

Approval of this Proposal 3 (NASDAQ 20% Issuance Proposal) requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of our Common Stock present in person or by proxy at the special meeting and actually voting on this proposal.

What is the effect on Social Reality and our current stockholders if the NASDAQ 20% Issuance Proposal is approved?

If our shareholders approve this proposal, we will be able to issue shares of our Common Stock upon the conversion of the Debentures in an amount which is in excess of 20% of our outstanding shares as of the date of the October 2017 Offering. This would include both shares of Common Stock underlying the A-2 Debentures if the conversion price were adjusted pursuant to its anti-dilution protection for subsequent issuances and underlying Series B Warrants in the event that the Company exercises its optional redemption rights under the Debentures. If approved, the reduction in floor price of the A-2 Debentures would only be triggered in the event that the Company issued Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents at an effective price lower than the then applicable conversion price of the Debentures (currently $3.00). The approval hereunder will not result in any immediate change to the Conversion price of the A-2 Debentures. Additionally, the issuance of the Series B Warrants would only occur upon the Optional Redemption of the some or all of the outstanding Debentures. In the event that the NASDAQ 20% Issuance Proposal is approved and the conversion price of the A-2 Debentures is adjusted pursuant to subsequent equity issuances, our shareholders will experience significant dilution in the event such A-2 Debentures are then converted by the holders into Common Stock. Additionally, if subsequent to approval and adjustment to the conversion price pursuant to subsequent equity issuances of the A-2 Debentures, we decide to exercise our Optional Redemption rights, our shareholders may will experience dilution upon the exercise of resulting Series B Warrants that would be issued.

30

The following table shows the number of shares of our Common Stock which are potentially issuable upon the conversion of the A-2 Debentures based upon the conversion price of $3.00 per share (as currently in effect) and the floor conversion price of $1.40 per share in the event that the proposal is approved hereunder and the anti-dilution protection is triggered by subsequent equity sales to such floor (giving no effect to the contractual limitations on beneficial ownership by a holder described above):

	No. shares issuable based upon $3.00 conversion price		% of issued and outstanding shares pre- Offering (1)			No. shares issuable based upon $1.40 conversion/exercise price		% of issued and outstanding shares pre-Debenture Offering (1)
$3,180,157.78 of A-2 Debentures		1,060,058		12.32	%		2,271,546		26.40	%

(1)

Immediately prior to the closing of the October 2017 Offering, there were 8,605,018 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding.

The following table shows the number of our shares of Common Stock which are potentially issuable upon the exercise of the Series B Warrants if and when they are issued pursuant to an Optional Redemption by the Company of all of the Debentures in the October 2017 Offering based upon the aggregate amount of the A-1 and A-2 Debentures on the closing date of the October 2017 Offering based on both a conversion price of $3.00 per share (as currently in effect) and the floor conversion price of $1.40 per share (assuming that the Proposal hereunder is approved and the anti-dilution protection is triggered by subsequent equity sales to such floor prior to the Optional Redemption (giving no effect to the contractual limitations on beneficial ownership by a holder described above).

	No. Series B Warrants issuable upon Optional Redemption at $3.00 conversion price		% of issued and outstanding shares pre- Offering (1)			No. shares issuable based upon $1.40 conversion/exercise price		% of issued and outstanding shares pre-Debenture Offering (1)
Series B Warrants		863,363		10.03	%		1,850,059		21.50	%

(1)

Immediately prior to the closing of the October 2017 Offering, there were 8,605,018 shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding.

What is the effect on Social Reality and our current stockholders if the NASDAQ 20% Issuance Proposal is not approved?

Under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreements we are required to hold a shareholder meeting by June 30, 2017. This proxy statement for our Annual Meeting meets the requirements for such shareholder meeting. If the NASDAQ 20% Issuance Proposal is not approved at the Annual Meeting, we are required to call a meeting every four months thereafter to seek shareholder approval of the NASDAQ 20% Issuance Proposal until the earlier of the date stockholder approval is obtained or the Debentures are no longer outstanding. We are not seeking the approval of our shareholders to authorize our entry into the Securities Purchase Agreement and related transaction documents, as we have already entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement and related transaction documents, and have issued the respective securities thereunder. The failure of our shareholders to approve this proposal will not negate the existing terms of the documents relating to the Securities Purchase Agreements, including the Debentures, the Warrants and Series B warrants, if and when issued, which will remain binding obligations of the Company. Notwithstanding, in the event that we do not receive shareholder approval, the A-2 Debentures will maintain their current floor conversion price of $3.00 and will not be subject to further adjustment for anti-dilution protection in the event of subsequent equity issuances below the conversion price if and until the proposal is approved by our shareholders.

Where can I find more information regarding the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Purchasers' Warrants?

The above descriptions set forth the material terms of the Securities Purchase Agreements, the Debentures the Warrants, the Placement Agent Warrants, and the Series B Warrants if and when issued. A more detailed description of the Securities Purchase Agreements, the Debentures, Warrants, Placement Agent Warrants and Series B Warrants and the related transaction documents can be found in our Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC on October 27, 2017. The form of Securities Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement, and the forms of Debentures and Warrants are filed as Exhibits 10.01, 10.02, 4.01 and 4.02, respectively. See "Incorporation by Reference” below.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” APPROVAL OF THE NASDAQ 20% ISSUANCE PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL 4

ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Company provides its shareholders with the opportunity to cast an annual advisory vote to approve the compensation of its named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules (which disclosure includes the compensation tables and the narrative disclosures that accompany the compensation tables) (a “say-on-pay proposal”). The Company believes it is appropriate to seek and take into account the views of shareholders on the design and effectiveness of the Company’s executive compensation program.

The Company’s goal for its executive compensation program is to attract, motivate, and retain a talented, entrepreneurial and creative team of executives who will provide leadership for the Company’s success in dynamic and competitive markets. The Company seeks to accomplish this goal in a way that rewards performance and is aligned with its shareholders’ long-term interests. The Company believes its executive compensation program, which emphasizes long-term equity awards, satisfies this goal and is strongly aligned with the long-term interests of its shareholders. The Board has determined that the compensation paid to our named executives is in line with that of comparable companies.

This is the first time we have provided our shareholders with the opportunity to cast advisory votes to approve the compensation of named executive officers.

In accordance with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act and the related rules of the SEC, the Board of Directors will request the shareholders vote to approve the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the named executive officers, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to the SEC’s executive compensation disclosure rules (which disclosure includes the compensation tables and the narrative disclosures that accompany the compensation tables), is hereby approved.”

As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding on the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee, and will not be construed as overruling a decision by the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee or creating or implying any additional fiduciary duty for the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, the Compensation Committee and the Board value the opinions expressed by shareholders in their vote on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions regarding named executive officers.

The Company does not have a current policy with regard to the frequency with which to provide shareholders with an opportunity to approve the compensation of the named executive officers. The shareholders will vote on such frequency at this Annual Meeting (see Proposal 5 below).

Vote Required

You may vote for or against the following resolution, or you may abstain. Approval of this proposal requires the affirmative “FOR” vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Because this vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon our Board. However, the Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of the vote, along with other relevant factors, in evaluating its executive compensation program.

Recommendation

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION.

****************

PROPOSAL 5

ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE THE FREQUENCY OF HOLDING FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION EVERY 1, 2 OR 3 YEARS

As required by Section 951 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Board is requesting shareholders to vote, on a non-binding advisory basis the Board is conducting a non-binding, advisory vote on the frequency with which it will seek the non-binding shareholders’ advisory vote on executive compensation, similar to Proposal Number 4 in this proxy statement in future years. Social Reality is required to hold the say-on-pay vote at least once every three years. Accordingly, shareholders may vote that the advisory vote on executive compensation be held in the future as follows:

· Every year;

· Every two years; or

· Every three years.

Shareholders may also abstain from voting on this proposal. In considering your vote, you may wish to review the information presented in connection with Proposal Number 4 in this proxy statement, as well as the Executive Compensation Tables and narrative disclosures sections of this proxy statement, which provide a more detailed discussion of our executive compensation.

Our Board has determined that holding a “say-on-pay” vote every three years is most appropriate for Social Reality and recommends that you vote to hold such advisory vote in the future every third year, for the following reasons.

·	A triennial vote encourages a longer-term evaluation of compensation history and business results.
	The Board believes that there is some risk that an annual advisory vote on executive compensation could lead to a short-term shareholder perspective regarding executive compensation that does not align well with the longer-term approach used by our Compensation Committee. We believe a three-year cycle for the shareholder advisory vote will provide investors the most meaningful timing alternative by which to evaluate the effectiveness of our executive compensation strategies and their alignment with Social Reality’s performance, financial results and business.
·	A triennial vote provides our Compensation Committee with adequate time to consider the results of say-on-pay votes and other shareholder input.

A triennial “say-on-pay” vote allows the Board to respond to shareholder sentiment and effectively implement any desired changes to executive compensation policies, practices and programs.

The Board believes that a triennial vote would not foreclose shareholder engagement on executive compensation during interim periods. shareholders can currently provide input directly to the Board, its committees or individual directors as indicated in the section of this proxy entitled “Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance – Communications with Directors.” Thus, we view the advisory vote on executive compensation as an additional, but not exclusive, opportunity for our shareholders to communicate their views on Social Reality’s executive compensation programs.

The Board weighed these reasons against the arguments in support of conducting the advisory vote annually or biannually. In particular, the Board considered the value of the opportunity for shareholder input at each annual meeting, as well as the belief that annual votes would promote greater accountability on executive compensation. Although the Board believes that these and other positions put forth in favor of an annual “say-on-pay” vote are not without merit, on balance, the Board believes that a triennial approach is most appropriate for Social Reality and recommends such manner of voting to shareholders. The Compensation Committee intends to periodically reassess that view and, if it determines appropriate, may provide for an advisory vote on executive compensation on a more frequent basis.

Required Vote

The frequency that receives the highest number of votes cast will be deemed to be the frequency selected by the shareholders. Because this vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon our Board. However, the Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of the shareholder vote, along with other relevant factors, in recommending a voting frequency to our Board.

Recommendation

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR A FREQUENCY OF ONCE EVERY “3 YEARS” FOR THE SHAREHOLDER ADVISORY VOTE ON COMPENSATION AWARDED TO OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.
