I will draft an executive retention bonus plan
Licensed US Attorney, Premium Employment and Corporate Contracts
About this Gig
Retaining C-suite executives and key officers requires sophisticated legal architecture. Standard employment forms cannot address the complex risks, equity considerations, and fiduciary duties inherent to executive leadership.
I am Sacha Katz Heymann (Bar #360649), a licensed U.S. attorney. I draft corporate-grade executive retention bonus plans engineered for high-stakes corporate environments, corporate transitions, and institutional continuity.
Key strategic elements included:
Single- and double-trigger "Change of Control" provisions
Strict definitions for "Cause" and "Good Reason" termination
Sophisticated vesting mechanics and milestone-gated payout terms
Harmonization with existing equity, severance, and incentive plans
Comprehensive non-solicitation, non-disparagement, and IP safeguards
Protect your enterprise value by securing leadership with institutional-grade legal documents. Send me a direct message on Fiverr to discuss your executive compensation framework.

FAQ
What is a "Change of Control" trigger?
This clause dictates whether and how an executive's retention bonus vests or accelerates if your company undergoes an acquisition, merger, or sale.
How do you handle "Good Reason" resignations?
I carefully define "Good Reason" to ensure executives cannot resign voluntarily and claim benefits unless there is a material reduction in compensation or role.
Does this document address tax regulations such as Section 409A?
I structure agreements to support standard compliance structures; however, clients should always coordinate with their CPA for corporate tax filings.
Can this plan integrate with executive severance agreements?
Yes. The plan can be drafted to complement or offset existing severance terms, preventing double-recovery liabilities.
How is the draft delivered?
You will receive fully editable Word (.docx) and PDF versions directly through the secure Fiverr delivery portal.
