Sample Business Contracts


Employment Agreement [Amendment] - New Frontier Media Inc. and Ken Boenish

Employment Forms

  • Employers can customize an employment agreement that states the salary, benefits, working hours and other important provisions for their new or existing employee.
  • Answer simple questions to build a contract with a consultant. Specify the services rendered, when payment is due, as well as IP rights.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

subsection (F) at the end thereof to read in its entirety as set forth below:

                  (F) If Executive is a "specified employee" within the meaning
         of Section 1.409A-1(i) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under
         the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), as of the
         Date of Termination, then payments to Executive hereunder shall not be
         made before the date that is six months after the Date of Termination
         (or if earlier, the date of death of Executive); provided, however,
         that during such six-month period, NFM shall make any and all payments
         contemplated hereunder to the extent such payments do not exceed two
         times the lesser of (i) Executive's annualized compensation, based upon
         the annual rate of compensation for the calendar year preceding the
         year in which the Date of Termination occurs, or (ii) the maximum
         amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant
         to Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for the year in which the Date of
         Termination occurs; and provided further that any amounts deferred
         hereunder shall be paid in a lump-sum amount at the expiration of such
         six-month period.

         Code).

         3. All other terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect. This Amendment, together with the Employment
Agreement, contains all the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties
hereto regarding the subject matter hereof and thereof. All prior agreements,

Amendment or the Employment Agreement shall be valid only if made in writing and
signed by the parties hereto.

         5. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the internal laws of the State of Colorado applicable to agreements made and to

principles.

         6. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute
