--00000000000090d2ba06004c3a2e Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Based on a review of her executed employment agreement, we are in a good position to modify her job duties and her bonus plan. Therefore, I am comfortable with the plan to offer her to transition to the staffing role we discussed. She may still resign and pursue legal action, but we have legal defenses based on her employment agreement. If helpful, we can organize another call. Let me know.
