Dear Joe:
It is my pleasure to extend you an offer to join Evolve in the position of Vice
President Sales, Western Region. Your expected start date will be February 14,
2000. As discussed, we will establish your suitability to move into a National
Sales role in the first 120 days of your employment.
Your total annual target compensation is $325,000, which consists of
compensation semi-monthly in arrears on a base salary of $125,000 per annum and
$200,000 per annum in commission compensation and in bonuses.
The details of your commission and bonus plan will be mutually agreed upon
within the first 30 days of employment.
Also, we will guarantee your Q1 bonus of $50,000 and you will receive a
recoverable draw of $4,000 per month during calendar Q2 2000. In addition, we
will provide you a $25,000 bonus if you successfully build-out the full Western
Regional Sales Team by June 1, 2000.
You will receive stock options to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock at the
price per share determined by the Board of Directors at its meeting following
your start date. These shares will vest at a rate of 1/4th on your first
anniversary of employment and 1/48th per month over a three-year period
thereafter, but such vesting will accelerate in the event of an acquisition of
the Company as follows:
If there is any sale of all, or substantially all, of the assets of the Company,
or any merger or consolidation as a result of which the holders of the Company's
capital stock immediately prior to such transaction own less than 50% of the
capital stock of the combined company following such transaction (each, an
"Acquisition"), then any stock or options to purchase stock of the Company
("Subject Securities") held by you prior to any Acquisition shall have the
following vesting terms:
1. If you voluntarily terminate your employment or consulting prior to
the one-year anniversary of the Acquisition, there will be vesting
only to such termination date without any acceleration or continued
vesting of Subject Securities beyond the date of your voluntary
termination; or
2. If your position is eliminated and/or you are not offered a position
with comparable remuneration, responsibility, authority or location in
the new or acquiring entity, there will be an acceleration of vesting
of all Subject Securities; or
3. If your employment or consulting relationship is involuntarily
terminated during the first year of such service in the new or
acquiring entity, there will be an acceleration of vesting of Subject
Securities until the second anniversary of the Acquisition; or
Upon your completion of one year of employment, consulting, or other service in
the new or acquiring entity, there will be an acceleration of vesting of Subject
Securities to the second anniversary of the Acquisition.
