Employment Agreement - Services Acquisition Corp. Int'l and Karen Kelley

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.

No waiver of any breach of any provision shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision, nor shall any waiver be implied from any course of dealing between the parties. No extension of time for performance of any obligations or other acts hereunder or under any other agreement shall be deemed to be an extension of the time for performance of any other obligations or any other acts.

The rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon their respective successors and assigns, and shall be enforceable by such successors and assigns.

13) Severability; Survival. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is found to be void and unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such unenforceable provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent possible so as to be enforceable (or if not subject to modification, then eliminated herefrom) for the purpose of those procedures to the extent necessary to permit the remaining provisions to be enforced. The provisions of Sections 3 through 16 of this Agreement shall survive the termination for any reason of the Employee's relationship with the Company.

14) Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

15) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed for all purposes by the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts executed and to be wholly performed within such State, except that no doctrine of choice of law shall be used to apply any law other than that of the State of California.

Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules attached hereto, if any) contains the entire understanding of the parties hereto in respect of its subject matter and supersedes all prior (oral or written) agreements, understandings, representations and warranties between or among the parties with respect to such subject matter. In furtherance of the foregoing, Employee acknowledges and agrees that that certain Change of Control Retention and Severance Agreement, dated November 1, 2005, by and between Employee and Jamba Juice Company shall, as of the effective date, terminate and be of no further force or effect and no further action to evidence such termination shall be required. The exhibits and schedules attached hereto, if any, constitute a part hereof as though set forth in full above.

Each party hereto agrees that, except for the statements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and any exhibit, schedule or document attached hereto, neither the Company nor Employee makes any other statements, representations or

warranties (whether in writing or otherwise) that the other is entitled to rely upon, and each hereby disclaims any other statements, representations or warranties (whether in writing or otherwise) made by each party or, as applicable, any of the officers, directors, members, managers, employees, agents, financial and legal advisors or other representatives of such party with respect to the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and any exhibit, schedule or document attached hereto, or the transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding the delivery or disclosure to the other or the other's representatives of any documentation or other information (whether oral or written) with respect to any one or more of the foregoing.
