Exhibit 10.16
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
--------------------
THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made effective as of the
15th day of August, 2001, by and between Clarus Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company") and Xxxx X. Xxxxxx, a Georgia resident,
("Employee").
WHEREAS, the Company desires to employ the Employee, and Employee
desires to accept such employment with the Company; and
WHEREAS, the Company and Employee desire to set forth in writing all of
the covenants, terms and conditions of their agreement and understanding as to
such employment.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual promises
contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to
be legally bound, agree as follows:
1. Employment and Duties. The Company hereby employs Employee, and
----------------------
Employee hereby accepts employment, as its Chief Operating Officer. Employee
agrees to serve in such capacity and to faithfully and diligently perform such
duties, responsibilities and services that are incidental thereto, as well as
such other duties, responsibilities and services as may be prescribed or
requested by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company from time to time.
Employee shall devote his full time, attention and best efforts to the
performance of his duties, responsibilities and services to the Company in a
lawful manner and in accordance with all policies of and instructions from the
Company.
2. Term. The term of this Agreement will commence on the date set forth
-----
above and will terminate one (1) year thereafter, unless said Agreement is
terminated at an earlier date as provided herein. The Agreement shall
automatically renew for identical and successive one (1) year term(s) unless
either party notifies the other of its intention not to renew the Agreement at
least 30 days prior to the expiration of the one year term then in effect;
provided, however, that all post-termination obligations under Sections 5, 6 and
7 shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement as provided herein.
3. Compensation and Employee Benefits.
-----------------------------------
(a) Compensation. Employee shall receive an annualized salary (the
"Base Salary") of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00), which shall be
paid in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices and subject to
any and all withholdings pursuant to applicable law.
Employee is also eligible to receive additional annualized incentive
compensation of up to $100,000 per year if the Company meets the revenue,
expense and profitability targets and the Employee attains specified management
business objectives as determined by the Company's Chief Executive Officer and
which shall be attached as Exhibit "A," hereto. The Employee's right to receive
incentive compensation hereunder will be measured on a quarterly basis and, if
earned, will be payable quarterly.
(b) Employee/Fringe Benefits. Employee shall be eligible to participate
in all employee benefit programs and fringe benefits (including, but not limited
to, medical, dental, vision, life, accidental death and dismemberment, travel,
accident and short-term/long-term disability insurance plans or programs, paid
time-off, paid holidays, etc.) generally made available to executive employees
of the Company, subject to any and all terms, conditions, and eligibility
requirements for said programs and benefits, as may from time to time be
prescribed by the Company. The Company may alter, modify, add to or delete its
employee benefit plans at any time as it determines in its sole discretion.
(c) Other Business Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Employee for
his actual out-of-pocket, business expenses that are incurred by Employee and
are reasonable and necessary in relation to and in furtherance of Employee's
performance of his duties to the Company. Such reimbursement shall be subject to
compliance with the Company's reimbursement policies and the provision of
substantiating documents of said expenses as may be reasonably requested by the
Company.
(d) Vacation. Employee shall be entitled to twenty-four (24) days Paid
Time Off (PTO) per year (which includes vacation, illness and other personal
time away from work) as well as seven (7) days of paid holiday in accordance
with the Company's normal policies; provided, that vacation shall be taken at
such times as shall not unreasonably interfere with the Employee's
responsibilities hereunder. Up to five (5) days of unused PTO may be carried
forward from one year into the next.
4. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the
------------
expiration of the term as follows:
(a) Death or Disability. The Employee's employment hereunder shall
terminate automatically upon Employee's death. In such event, Employee's estate
shall be entitled to receive any earned and unpaid Base Salary, prorated through
the date of death. If the Employee is prevented from performing his material
duties hereunder as a result of physical or mental illness, injury or incapacity
for either (i) a period of ninety (90) consecutive days or (ii) more than one
hundred-eighty (180) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period, then
the Company may terminate the Employee's employment upon written notice to
Employee. While receiving disability income payments under the Company's
disability income plan, the Employee shall not be entitled to receive any Base
Salary hereunder, but shall continue to participate in the Company's benefit
plans, to the extent permitted by such plans, until the termination of his
employment.
(b) For Cause. The Company may terminate the Employee's employment
hereunder for Cause at any time upon notice to the Employee setting forth in
reasonable detail the nature of such Cause. In the event that the Company
terminates Employee's employment for Cause (or Employee resigns from his
employment with the Company), the Company shall not be obligated to pay any
salary or other compensation to Employee after the effective date of
termination, other than accrued and unpaid Base Salary earned through the date
of termination.
(c) Without Cause. In the event the Company terminates this Agreement
without Cause, then Employee shall be entitled to (i) severance pay in the form
of continuation
2
of his annualized Base Salary until the earlier of the expiration of the
remainder of the one year term then in effect, or a period of six months from
the date of such termination, or Employee's earlier commencement of employment
with any other entity. Any such severance pay shall be paid in accordance with
the Company's regular payroll practices and subject to any and all withholdings
pursuant to applicable law, and (ii) a pro rata portion of his incentive bonus,
if any, contemplated by Section 3(a) for the quarter in which his employment
terminated based upon the number of days in the quarter elapsed prior to such
termination. In addition, the Company shall continue to provide, through COBRA
or otherwise, medical insurance coverage contemplated by Section 3(c) until the
earlier of the expiration of the remainder of the one year term then in effect,
or a period of six months following the date of Employee's termination without
Cause, or Employee's earlier commencement of employment with any other entity.
Payment of the severance benefits set forth herein shall be subject to
Employee's continued compliance with the provisions of Section 5 hereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company's obligations to
under this Section 4(c) shall terminate on the date on which Employee commences
new employment. For purposes hereof, the commencement of a full-time position,
whether as an employee, consultant or independent contractor shall be deemed to
be commencement of "new employment".
(d) Change of Control. The Employee may terminate his employment
hereunder at any time during the three (3) month period beginning three (3)
months after a Change of Control has occurred by written notice given to the
Company. In the event of such termination:
(i) The Company shall continue to pay to the Employee his Base
Salary as of the date of the Change of Control for a period of
six (6) months from the date of termination or such earlier date
on which Employee commences new employment.
(ii) The Company shall pay to the Employee a pro rata portion of
his incentive bonus, if any, contemplated by Section 3(a) for the
quarter in which his employment terminated based upon the number of
days in the quarter elapsed prior to termination.
(iii) The Company shall continue to provide Employee with the
medical insurance coverage contemplated by Section 3(c), through COBRA
or otherwise, for a period equal to the earlier of (x) six (6) months
from the date of termination or (y) Employee's commencement of
employment with any other entity.
5. Protective Covenants. Employee is, and will become during the course
---------------------
of employment, intimately familiar with Confidential Information, Trade Secrets,
products and services, and other property of the Company. The protection of the
Company requires that all such property and information must remain the sole and
private property of the Company to be used only for the Company's benefit, not
to be disclosed to any other party nor used by Employee against the Company or
for the benefit of any other person. Employee shall, upon request of the
Company, and without request promptly on termination of employment, deliver all
Company Property in Employee's possession or control to the Company. Employee
3
acknowledges and agrees that title to all Company Property is vested in the
Company. In addition, Employee warrants, represents, covenants and agrees,
during the term of his employment and for the periods described below, as
follows:
(a) Covenant Not to Compete in Certain Ways. By virtue of his position
with the Company, Employee shall be given an opportunity to, and shall have an
obligation to, participate in strategic planning with respect to competitors of
the Company and shall be made privy to the Company's marketing strategy, product
development, pricing, timing and other matters specifically designed to address
market competition. Employee further acknowledges that the use and/or disclosure
by him of such secret information and knowledge would be inevitable in the event
Employee were to become engaged by such a competitor in a capacity similar to
the capacity in which Employee is employed by the Company. Employee therefore
agrees that, for a period of one (1) year following termination of his
employment with the Company, he shall not directly or indirectly, within the
State of Georgia or within a 100-mile radius of the addresses of the competitors
of the Company expressly listed on Exhibit "B" hereto (the "Named Competitors"),
-----------
become engaged or employed by any Named Competitor in a capacity substantially
identical to the functions and duties Employee performs on behalf of the
Company. Employee acknowledges that the Named Competitors designated on
Exhibit "B" are the key competitors of the Company as of the date hereof.
-----------
Employee acknowledges and agrees that there are many other entities with whom
Employee can profitably use his skills and abilities, including other
competitors of the Company, and that it is entirely proper and reasonable for
him to agree not to work for the Named Competitors in the prescribed capacity
for the prescribed times and within the prescribed locations. The parties agree
that Exhibit "B" may be updated and amended from time to time by substituting
-----------
therefor a modified Exhibit "B" that has been signed by both the Company and
-----------
Employee, and that the Named Competitors shall thereafter refer to the companies
listed on such amended Exhibit "B."
------------
(b) Covenant Not to Solicit Business from Certain Customers. The
Employee acknowledges that during the course of his employment by the Company,
Employee shall have a duty to, and shall be given an opportunity to, make
contact with and strengthen ties with Customers and potential Customers of the
Company. The Employee shall not, for a period of two (2) years after termination
of his employment with the Company, directly or indirectly, for himself or any
other person or entity, solicit any Customer for the purchase or license by such
Customer of any product or service competitive with any of the products and
services which are offered by the Company within the one-year period preceding
termination of Employee's employment.
(c) Covenant Not to Solicit Employees. For a period of two (2) years
following the date of termination of his employment with the Company, Employee
shall not, directly or indirectly, for himself or any other person or entity,
employ, solicit or recommend the employment of any employee of the Company for
the purpose of causing such employee to take employment with Employee or any
other person or entity until such employee or former employee has ceased to be
employed by the Company for a period of six (6) months.
(d) Covenant Not to Disclose Confidential Information or Trade Secrets.
Employee shall not disclose to any person whatsoever or use any Trade Secrets or
Confidential Information of the Company, other than as necessary in the
fulfillment of his duties to the
4
Company in the course of employment. This paragraph shall be effective during
the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years after termination
of employment with respect to all Confidential Information, and shall remain in
effect with respect to all Trade Secrets so long as such information remains a
trade secret under applicable law.
6. Work Product; Inventions.
-------------------------
(a) Ownership by the Company. The Company shall own all right, title
and interest in and to all work product developed by Employee in Employee's
provision of services to the Company, including without limitation, all
preliminary designs and drafts, all other works of authorship, all derivative
works and patentable and unpatentable inventions and improvements, all copies of
such works in whatever medium such copies are fixed or embodied, and all
worldwide copyrights, trademarks, patents or other intellectual property rights
in and to such works (collectively the "Work Product"). All copyrightable
materials of the Work Product shall be deemed a "work made for hire" for the
purposes of U.S. Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. ss. 101 et seq., as amended.
(b) Assignment and Transfer. In the event any right, title or interest
in and to any of the Work Product (including without limitation all worldwide
copyrights, trademarks, patents or other intellectual property rights therein)
does and shall not vest automatically in and with the Company, Employee agrees
to and hereby does irrevocably assign, convey and otherwise transfer to the
Company, and the Company's respective successors and assigns, all such right,
title and interest in and to the Work Product with no requirement of further
consideration from or action by Employee or the Company.
(c) Registration Rights. The Company shall have the exclusive worldwide
right to register, in all cases as "claimant" and when applicable as "author,"
all copyrights in and to any copyrightable element of the Work Product, and file
any and all applicable renewals and extensions of such copyright registrations.
The Company shall also have the exclusive worldwide right to file applications
for and obtain (i) patents on and for any of the Work Product in Employee's name
and (ii) assignments for the transfer of the ownership of any such patents to
the Company.
(d) Additional Documents. Employee agrees to execute and deliver all
documents requested by the Company regarding or related to the ownership and/or
other intellectual property rights and registrations specified herein. Employee
hereby further irrevocably designates and appoints the Company as Employee's
agent and attorney-in-fact to act for and on Employee's behalf and stead to
execute, register and file any such assignments, applications, registrations,
renewals and extensions and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further
the registration, prosecution and issuance of patents, copyright or similar
protections with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Employee.
7. Employee's Obligations Upon Termination. Upon the termination of
----------------------------------------
Employee's employment hereunder for whatever reason, Employee automatically
tenders Employee's resignation from any office Employee may hold with the
Company, and Employee shall not at any time thereafter represent himself to be
connected or to have any connection with the Company or its related entities.
5
8. Assignment. Due to the personal service nature of Employee's
-----------
obligations, Employee may not assign this Agreement. Subject to the restrictions
in this Section, this Agreement shall be binding upon and benefit the parties
hereto, and their respective heirs, successors or assigns.
9. Legality and Severability. The parties covenant and agree that the
--------------------------
provisions contained herein are reasonable and are not known or believed to be
in violation of any federal, state, or local law, rule or regulation. In the
event a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision herein (or subpart
thereof) to be illegal or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court shall
modify said provision(s) (or subpart(s) thereof) to make said provision(s) (or
subpart(s) thereof) and this Agreement valid and enforceable. Any illegal or
unenforceable provision (or subpart thereof), or any modification by any court,
shall not affect the remainder of this Agreement, which shall continue at all
times to be valid and enforceable.
10. Entire Agreement; Modification; Governing Law. This Agreement
----------------------------------------------
constitutes the entire understanding between the parties regarding the subject
matters addressed herein and supersedes any prior oral or written agreements
between the parties. This Agreement can only be modified by a writing signed by
both parties, and shall be interpreted in accordance with and governed by the
laws of the State of Georgia without regard to the choice of law provisions
thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the protective provisions contained in
Paragraph 5 hereof shall be governed and enforced in accordance with the laws of
the state in which enforcement of such provisions is sought.
11. Negotiated Agreement. Employee and the Company agree that this
---------------------
Agreement shall be construed as drafted by both of them, as parties of
equivalent bargaining power, and not for or against either of them as drafter.
12. Review and Voluntariness of Agreement. Employee acknowledges
--------------------------------------
Employee has had an opportunity to read, review, and consider the provisions of
this Agreement, that Employee has in fact read and does understand such
provisions, and that Employee has voluntarily entered into this Agreement.
13. Non-Waiver. The failure of the Company to insist upon or enforce
-----------
strict performance of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any rights
or remedies thereunder will not be construed as a waiver by the Company to
assert or rely upon any such provision, right or remedy in that or any other
instance.
14. No Conflicting Obligations. Employee hereby acknowledges and
---------------------------
represents that Employee's execution of this Agreement and performance of
employment-related obligations and duties for the Company as set forth hereunder
will not cause any breach, default or violation of any other employment,
non-disclosure, confidentiality, non-competition or other agreement to which
Employee may be a party or otherwise bound. Employee hereby agrees that he will
not use in the performance of his duties for the Company (or otherwise disclose
to the Company) any trade secrets or confidential information of any prior
employer or other person or entity if and to the extent that such use or
disclosure may cause a breach or violation of any obligation or duty owed to
such employer, person, or entity under any agreement or applicable law.
6
15. Forum; Encorcement. In the event of litigation arising from this
-------------------
Agreement, Employee hereby expressly consents to jurisdiction and venue in any
State or Federal Court sitting in Xxxxxx County, State of Georgia, and waives
any objections to such jurisdiction and venue. Employee further agrees that if
Employee were to breach the provisions of Section 5 or 6 hereof, the Company
would be irreparably harmed and therefore, in addition to any other remedies
available at law, the Company shall be entitled to equitable relief, including
without limitation, specific performance and preliminary and permanent
injunction, against any breach or threatened breach of said Sections 5 and 6,
without having to post bond.
16. Notices. Any notice or other communications under this Agreement
