Description

The Short Form of Deferred Compensation Agreement outlines the terms under which an employer provides additional post-retirement compensation to a key employee in Massachusetts. This document serves to encourage the employee to remain with the organization until retirement. Key features include the conditions that must be met for the employee to receive the compensation, such as remaining with the employer until a specified date and fulfilling job duties. Payments are structured in equal monthly installments, beginning on a designated date, and an important stipulation is that the right to these sums terminates if the employee engages in outside business activities without employer consent. In the case of the employee's death before receiving all payments, the agreement ensures the remaining balance is paid to the surviving spouse or estate. This form is essential for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it provides a clear framework for deferred compensation arrangements, promotes loyalty in employment relationships, and includes necessary legal protections. Users should complete all specified fields accurately and ensure signatories are present to establish validity.
