(d) New Director
On August 12, 2014, MeetMe, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Jason Whitt to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). Mr. Whitt was also appointed as Chairman of the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board.
Mr. Whitt, age 42, is the Senior Vice President of Corporate and Business Development of ReachLocal, Inc., a position he has held since joining ReachLocal in March 2011. From June 2005 through February 2011, Mr. Whitt was a Venture Capital Investor for VantagePoint Venture Partners, where he focused on investments in Internet/digital media, cloud delivered software & services, mobile, consumer-oriented technology and healthcare IT. From September 2000 through May 2005, Mr. Whitt was responsible for acquisitions, venture investing, and corporate strategy for Cisco Systems’ Corporate Business Development group, where he led numerous transactions involving communications software and applications, enterprise collaboration, mobile/wireless, Internet/digital media, and consumer technology companies.
On August 12, 2014, Mr. Whitt was granted an option to purchase 18,500 shares of common stock under the Company’s 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan, vesting monthly over a one year period, at an exercise price of $2.22 per share, representing the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant.
Under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement dated October 17, 2006, by and between Mexicans & Americans Trading Together, Inc. (“MATT”) and Quepasa Corporation (predecessor-in-interest to the Company), MATT is entitled to appoint one director to the Board so long as MATT beneficially owns at least five percent of the Company’s outstanding stock (the “Investor Designee”). Alonso Ancira served on the Board as the Investor Designee from November 2006 until the 2014 Annual Meeting held on August 11, 2014, at which he did not stand for election. Pursuant to the 2014 Supplement to Securities Purchase Agreement, dated December 19, 2013, MATT agreed that the Investor Designee would be an individual whom MATT reasonably believes is experienced in the Internet social networking industry and who has not previously served on the Board. MATT has designated Mr. Whitt as such Investor Designee.
