Executive Employment Agreement

Overview

CaseMark's Executive Employment Agreement skill transforms term sheets and board approvals into fully drafted, negotiation-ready executive employment agreements. The AI handles the complex interplay of compensation structures, equity awards, severance provisions, and restrictive covenants while running enforceability and 409A compliance checks automatically.

Drafting executive employment agreements is one of the most time-intensive tasks in corporate legal practice. Each agreement requires careful coordination of compensation terms, equity structures, severance triggers, and restrictive covenants—all while navigating jurisdictional enforceability rules and 409A compliance requirements. A single agreement can take hours of attorney time to draft, review, and reconcile against term sheets and board approvals.

CaseMark automates the heavy lifting of executive employment agreement drafting by extracting terms from your uploaded documents, identifying gaps, and producing a complete agreement following a proven 14-section structure. Built-in enforceability checks and 409A analysis ensure the draft is not just fast but legally sound, freeing attorneys to focus on negotiation strategy rather than document assembly.

How it works

  1. 1. Upload your term sheet, equity plan documents, and board resolutions

  2. 2. AI extracts key terms, identifies gaps, and flags missing information for review

  3. 3. CaseMark drafts a complete negotiation-ready agreement with enforceability checks

  4. 4. Review, customize, and export the final agreement in DOCX or PDF format

Questions

What types of executive agreements can this skill draft?

CaseMark's Executive Employment Agreement skill handles C-suite and senior executive employment agreements, executive offer conversions, and negotiated employment terms. It covers compensation, equity, severance, change in control, and restrictive covenant provisions.

How does CaseMark handle jurisdictional differences in restrictive covenants?

CaseMark tailors non-compete, non-solicit, and other restrictive covenant provisions based on the governing law jurisdiction you specify. The AI flags enforceability concerns and adjusts scope, duration, and geographic limitations to align with jurisdictional requirements.

Does the agreement address Section 409A compliance?

Yes. CaseMark automatically runs 409A exposure checks during the drafting process and includes appropriate 409A compliance language in the miscellaneous provisions section to help mitigate deferred compensation risks.

Can I customize the severance and change in control provisions?

Absolutely. CaseMark generates a detailed termination and severance matrix covering Cause, Good Reason, death, disability, and Change in Control scenarios. You can review and adjust all triggers, notice periods, cure rights, and severance multiples before finalizing.

What if my term sheet is missing key information?

CaseMark identifies and flags any gaps in the uploaded documents before drafting begins. You'll receive a clear list of missing items so you can provide additional details or make decisions before the agreement is generated.

Is the output ready for negotiation or does it need significant legal review?

CaseMark produces a negotiation-ready draft that follows standard market practices for executive employment agreements. While the output is comprehensive and professionally structured, we recommend attorney review to confirm alignment with your specific business objectives and risk tolerance.
