Description

This form is a sample of a termination agreement between an employer and an executive at end of the term of an employment agreement with restrictive covenants and a general release. A Louisiana Termination Agreement between an employer and an executive at the end of a term of employment agreement with restrictive covenants and a general release is a legal document that governs the separation of an executive from their employment position, outlining the terms and conditions of termination, restrictive covenants, and mutual release of claims. In Louisiana, there are two commonly used types of termination agreements between employers and executives at the end of the term of an employment agreement: 1. Louisiana Termination Agreement with Non-Compete Clause: This type of agreement includes provisions that restrict the executive from engaging in similar activities or joining competitors for a specified period after termination. The non-compete clause aims to protect the employer's trade secrets, customer relationships, and intellectual property. 2. Louisiana Termination Agreement without Non-Compete Clause: This type of agreement does not include any non-compete provisions. It is generally used when the employer does not have significant concerns about the executive competing with them or when the executive's role doesn't hold access to sensitive company information or client relationships. Key elements commonly included in a Louisiana Termination Agreement between an employer and an executive are: 1. Parties: — Identifying the employer by its legal name, address, and contact information. — Identifying the executive by their legal name, address, and contact information. 2. Recitals: — Providing a brief background of the employment relationship, outlining the terms of the previously agreed-upon employment agreement and its end date. 3. Termination Date and Agreement: — Clearly stipulating the date on which the executive's employment will terminate, whether it be through resignation, expiration of the employment agreement, or another mutually agreed-upon method. — Confirming that both parties have mutually decided to enter into a termination agreement. 4. Severance Compensation (if applicable): — Outlining any severance pay or other benefits the executive is entitled to receive upon termination, including specifics on payment methods and timing. 5. Restrictive Covenants: — If included, detailing the non-compete, non-solicitation, or non-disclosure obligations that the executive must adhere to post-termination. — Specifying the duration and geographic scope of the restrictive covenants, ensuring reasonableness under Louisiana law. 6. General Release: — Releasing each party from any claims, liabilities, or obligations arising out of the employment relationship, including potential disputes or disagreements. — Acknowledging that the executive has received all due compensation and benefits. 7. Confidentiality: — Addressing the executive's duty to maintain the confidentiality of any sensitive company information or trade secrets, even after termination. 8. Governing Law and Jurisdiction: — Specifying that Louisiana law governs the agreement and any disputes arising from it. — Designating the appropriate jurisdiction for resolving legal matters. It is essential to consult with legal professionals in Louisiana to ensure that the termination agreement complies with state laws and protects both parties' interests.
