What the filing says
RTB Digital entered an Executive Services Agreement with Heckman Media LLC (100% owned by James Heckman) effective June 1, 2026, through December 31, 2030. Heckman receives $75,000/month base salary (June–December 2026), then $50,000/month thereafter; a $250,000 initial bonus; annual performance bonuses up to 100% of base salary; and RSU grants up to 3.47M shares (or 10% fully diluted) upon Nasdaq listing and $100M revenue milestones, plus 10% of incremental stock-price gains above 20% annual thresholds through 2031. The agreement treats Heckman as an independent contractor through the LLC, with health/office expense reimbursement and 12-month severance if terminated without cause.
Why this rating
Material ownership dilution (up to 10% fully diluted) and ~$600k+ annual cash outlay for a $8.5M market cap company is substantial. However, terms are contingent on shareholder/board approvals, equity plan adoption, and revenue/profitability milestones; many provisions may not execute. The retrospective vesting-date treatment (Jan 2026) and contractual ambiguities (cash-flow gatekeeping on bonuses, incomplete signature block) add execution risk. Not transformational in isolation but meaningful relative to company scale.
