Sample Business Contracts

Employment Agreement [Amendment No. 2] - Intelligroup Inc. and Matthew Shocklee

Employment Forms

  • Employment Contract. Employers can customize an employment agreement that states the salary, benefits, working hours and other important provisions for their new or existing employee.
  • Consulting Agreement. Answer simple questions to build a contract with a consultant. Specify the services rendered, when payment is due, as well as IP rights.
  • Commission Agreement. Employers who compensate their sales employees based on commissions can prepare an agreement to reduce misunderstandings by specifying the base salary and how commissions are calculated.
  • Executive Employment Agreement. Companies may offer their business executives a contract that is different from the one provided to their regular employees. Executive employment agreements may be more complex because the compensation structure may include a combination of salary and commissions, provide for bonuses based on sales, stock or other financial targets, and include non-compete, confidentiality and severance provisions.
  • Sales Representative Contract. Independent sales representatives offer companies the potential to increase the sale of products or services without the burden of increasing headcount. Both parties should understand how commissions are calculated, when commissions will be paid, as well as how the representative will treat confidential information from the company and whether the representative may also sell a competing line of products or services.

Executive  is  terminated  as set forth in  Section 3 of the  Change in  Control
Severance  Agreement,  eighty  percent of any  outstanding  but  unvested  stock
options  granted  to the  Executive  shall  thereupon  vest  immediately  and be
exercisable  by the Executive.  However,  to the extent that during the first 90
days after the Change in Control,  the  Executive  should  exercise any of these
options to  purchase  shares of the Common  Stock of the Company and sell any of
those shares, the Company shall be entitled to obtain and hold in escrow any net
proceeds  resulting from the sale of the  underlying  securities of such options
exercised,  for a period  equal to the lesser of (i) 90  calendar  days from the
Change  in  Control,  or (ii)  until  the  date of  termination  of  Executive's
employment.  In the event that Executive's employment is unilaterally terminated
by the  Executive  within 90 days of the  Change in  Control,  the  Company  may
recover a pro-rata portion of the such proceeds  (calculated by the ratio of (a)
days elapsed from the Change in Control  until the date of  termination,  to (b)
90) days directly from the escrow and prior to  distribution to the Executive of
the  balance  of the  escrow.  For  purposes  of this  paragraph,  net  proceeds
resulting from the sale
