Exhibit 10.26
Employment Agreement
          This Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of February 14,
2008, between COMSYS IT Partners, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
and Amy Bobbitt (the “Executive”).

1.   BACKGROUND. The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), acting through
the Compensation Committee, considers the employment of the Executive to be in
the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. In connection with
Executive’s recent promotion, the Company desires to enter into this Agreement
to establish the terms and conditions of Executive’s ongoing employment.   2.  
DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the
meanings set forth below. Other defined terms have the meanings set forth in the
provisions of this Agreement in which they are used.   2.1   Base Salary is
defined in Section 4.1.   2.2   Beneficial Owner is defined in Rule 13d-3 of the
Exchange Act.   2.3   Benefit means any Company-provided or Company-sponsored
pension plan, 401k plan, insurance plan, or other employee benefit plan, program
or arrangement made available to the Company’s employees generally.   2.4  
Bonus Potential means the annual bonus amount that will be earned by the
Executive under the Company Bonus Plan if the Company’s EBITDA is 100% of the
targeted EBITDA for the applicable period as set forth on Exhibit B. The
Executive’s current Bonus Potential is set forth on Exhibit A, Schedule 1. If
such potential bonus amount is increased at any time in the Company’s sole
discretion, then the resulting increased potential bonus amount shall be deemed
the Bonus Potential for all purposes hereunder.   2.5   Bonus Potential Earned
means the amount of the Executive’s Bonus Potential that was earned during the
bonus period in question. The amount earned will be equal to the percentage of
Bonus Potential during the bonus period that corresponds to actual performance
during that period, multiplied by the Executive’s Bonus Potential. The amount
earned will be prorated for any bonus period the Executive was not employed by
the Company for the entire bonus period based on the portion of the bonus period
the Executive was employed by the Company. Any such prorated bonus will be
determined at the same time and in the same manner that bonuses are determined
for other participants in the Company Bonus Plan upon completion of such bonus
period and payments will be made at the same time that payments are made to
other participants in the Company Bonus Plan. In no event will any portion of
the Bonus Potential be deemed to have been earned by the Executive if the
Executive resigns other than for Good Reason or if the Employment is terminated
for Cause.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

8.2   Executive understands that such information is confidential, and she
agrees not to reveal such information to anyone outside the Company so long as
the confidential or secret nature of such information shall continue. Executive

Confidential Information, clients, employees, suppliers and business
relationships.   9.2   Executive agrees that she will not, either directly or
indirectly, during the Employment and for two (2) years after termination of the

communicate with any of the Company Group clients or potential clients for the
purpose of providing services to such client, or (b) sell any services to any
client or potential client of the Company Group.   9.3   Nonsolicitation.

employ, solicit, induce, or recruit, any person employed by the Company Group at
any time within the one (1) year period immediately preceding such employment,
solicitation, inducement or recruitment.   9.4   For the purposes of this
Agreement, “potential client” shall be defined as those entities for which

    performed by the Company Group at any time within the one (1) year period
preceding termination of Executive’s Employment.   9.5   Executive agrees that
it is her intention that any restriction contained in this section that is
determined to be unenforceable be modified by any Tribunal having jurisdiction
to be reasonable and enforceable, and, as modified, to be fully enforced.   9.6
  The Company will not unreasonably withhold its consent under Section 9.1 to
the Executive’s employment, after the termination of the Employment, by a
corporation that competes with Company, but only if, before starting the new
employment, the Executive provides the Company with a document reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, signed by both the Executive and such corporation,
containing (i) a written description of the Executive’s duties in the new job,
and (ii) specific assurances that in the new job the Executive will neither use
nor disclose the Company’s Confidential Information.   9.7   Executive
acknowledges and agrees that the restrictive covenants contained herein are
reasonable in time, territory and scope, and in all other respects. If a
Tribunal determines that any of the restrictions set forth in this Section 9 are
unreasonably broad or otherwise unenforceable under applicable law, then (i)
such determination shall be binding only within the geographical jurisdiction of
the Tribunal, and (ii) the restriction will not be terminated or rendered
unenforceable, but instead will be reformed (solely for enforcement within the
geographic jurisdiction of the Tribunal) to the minimum extent required to
render it enforceable.   10.   CHANGE OF CONTROL   10.1   Special Severance
Benefits.

Benefits”):

  (1)   all benefits that would be provided under this Agreement in the event of
a termination of the Employment without Cause by the Company, with the Severance
Payment paid as provided in subparagraph (c) below, instead of as provided in
Section 6 of this Agreement; and     (2)   a special, additional severance
payment (the “Special Severance Payment”) equal to one-half (.5) times the
highest Base Salary in effect (i) during the 12 months immediately prior to the

less than 12 months .

  (b)   The specific termination events and time periods in which the Executive

      EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT   PAGE 13

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

      Control Date and ending at 5:00 pm Phoenix time on the date two (2) years
after the Change of Control Date; or     (2)   the Executive Resigns for Good
Reason at any time during the period beginning on the Change of Control Date and
ending at 5:00 pm Phoenix time on the date two (2) years after the Change of
Control Date.

  (c)   The Special Severance Payment and the Severance Payment required by this
Agreement shall be made to the Executive, in cash or immediately-available
funds, in a lump sum within 10 business days following the execution by
Executive of a release.     (d)   Payments pursuant to this Agreement shall not
be deemed to constitute continued employment beyond the Termination Date.    
(e)   As a condition to providing the Executive with the Special Severance
Benefits, the Company will require the Executive to first execute a release on
the same terms as specified in Section 6.1(f) above.

10.2   A Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred if any of the
following events occurs after the Effective Date:

  (a)   The consummation of a Merger Transaction if (a) the Company is not the
surviving entity and (b) as a result of the Merger Transaction, 50 percent or
less of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of the
other party to the Merger Transaction, immediately after the date of Change of
Control, are held in the aggregate by the holders of Voting Stock immediately
prior to the date of Change of Control.     (b)   The consummation of a Sale
Transaction.     (c)   Any Person, other than the Permitted Holders, becomes the
Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the
outstanding Voting Stock.     (d)   The stockholders of the Company approve the
dissolution of the Company.     (e)   During any period of twenty-four
(24) consecutive months, the replacement of a majority of the members of the
Board who were members of the Board at the beginning of such period, and such
new members shall not have been (i) nominated or appointed to the Board pursuant
to the terms of an agreement with the Company, (ii) nominated for election or
selected as a director by a duly constituted nominating committee (or a
subcommittee thereof) of the Board or (iii) approved by a vote of at least a
majority of the members of the Board then still in office who either were
members of the Board at the beginning of such period or whose election as a
member of the Board was so previously approved.

10.3   Simultaneously with the occurrence of a Change of Control, all vesting
restrictions related to equity awards previously made to the Executive under the
Company’s Amended

      EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT   PAGE 14

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

    and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (or any successor equity incentive
plans) shall lapse, and all such awards shall become fully vested without any
requirement for further action on the Executive’s part.   11.   CERTAIN
ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS BY THE COMPANY. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment or
distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive upon a Change
of Control, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”), would be subject to the
excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the United States Internal Revenue Code or
any interest or penalties with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax,
together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively
referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then the Executive shall be entitled to
receive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that
after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties
imposed with respect to such taxes), including any Excise Tax imposed upon the
Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal
to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. Subject to the provisions of this
Section, all determinations required to be made hereunder, including whether a
Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment, shall be
made by an accounting firm (at the sole expense of the Company) approved by the
Company and the Executive (the “Accounting Firm”), which firm shall provide
detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive within 15
business days of the date of termination of the Employment, if applicable, or
such earlier time as is requested by the Company. If the Accounting Firm
determines that no Excise Tax is payable by the Executive, the Accounting Firm
shall furnish the Executive with an opinion that she has substantial authority
not to report any Excise Tax on her federal income tax return. Any determination
by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. As a
result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code, it is
possible that Gross-Up Payments may be miscalculated and may not cover the full
amount of Excise Taxes due (an “Underpayment”) consistent with the calculations
required to be made hereunder. If the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant
hereto and the Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise
Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has
occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or
for the benefit of the Executive.   12.   COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 409A OF THE
INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. To the extent applicable, it is intended that this
Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue
Code (“Section 409A”). This Agreement shall be administered in a manner
consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause the Agreement to
fail to satisfy Section 409A shall have no force and effect until amended to
comply with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, in the event any payment or benefit hereunder is determined to
constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, then to
the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A, such payment or benefit shall
not be made, provided or

      EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT   PAGE 15

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

    commenced until six months after Executive’s “separation from service” as
such phrase is defined for purposes of Section 409A.   13.   EMPLOYEE HANDBOOKS,
ETC. From time to time, the Company may, in its discretion, establish, maintain
and distribute employee manuals or handbooks or personnel policy manuals, and
officers or other representatives of the Company may make written or oral
statements relating to personnel policies and procedures. The Executive will
adhere to and follow all rules, regulations, and policies of the Company set
forth in such manuals, handbooks, or statements as they now exist or may later
be amended or modified. Such manuals, handbooks and statements do not constitute
a part of this Agreement nor a separate contract, and shall not be deemed as
amending this Agreement or as creating any binding obligation on the part of the
Company, but are intended only for general guidance.   14.   OTHER PROVISIONS  
14.1   This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon (i) the
Company and its successors and assigns and (ii) the Executive and the
Executive’s heirs and legal representatives, except that the Executive’s duties
and responsibilities under this Agreement are of a personal nature and will not
be assignable or delegable in whole or in part without the Company’s prior
written consent.   14.2   All notices and statements with respect to this
Agreement must be in writing and shall be delivered by certified mail return
receipt requested; hand delivery with written acknowledgment of receipt; or
overnight courier with delivery-tracking capability. Notices to the Company
shall be addressed to the Company’s chief executive officer or general counsel

indicated, as set forth in the Company’s payroll records. A party may change its
address for notice by the giving of notice thereof in the manner hereinabove
provided.   14.3   If the Executive Resigns for Good Reason because of (i) the
Company’s failure to pay the Executive on a timely basis the amounts to which
she is entitled under this Agreement or (ii) any other breach of this Agreement
by the Company, then the Company shall pay all amounts and damages to which the
Executive may be entitled as a result of such failure or breach, including
interest thereon at the maximum non-usurious rate and all reasonable legal fees
and expenses and other costs incurred by the Executive to enforce the
Executive’s rights hereunder and the Executive will be relieved of all
obligations under Section 9 (noncompetition).   14.4   This Agreement sets forth
the entire present agreement of the parties concerning the subjects covered
herein except for any equity incentive award agreement between the Company and
the Executive. There are no promises, understandings, representations, or
warranties of any kind concerning those subjects except as expressly set forth
herein or therein.

14.5   Any modification of this Agreement must be in writing and signed by all
parties; any attempt to modify this Agreement, orally or in writing, not
executed by all parties will be void.   14.6   If any provision of this
Agreement, or its application to anyone or under any circumstances, is
adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity
or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or application of this
Agreement which can be given effect without the invalid or unenforceable
provision or application and will not invalidate or render unenforceable such
provision or application in any other jurisdiction.   14.7   This Agreement will
be governed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Texas.   14.8   No
failure on the part of any party to enforce any provisions of this Agreement
will act as a waiver of the right to enforce that provision.   14.9  
Termination of the Employment, with or without Cause, will not affect the
continued enforceability of this Agreement.   14.10   Section headings are for
convenience only and shall not define or limit the provisions of this Agreement.
  14.11   This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which
is an original. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement or
any counterpart hereof to produce or account for any of the other counterparts.
A copy of this Agreement manually signed by one party and transmitted to the
other party by FAX or in image form via email shall be deemed to have been
executed and delivered by the signing party as though an original. A photocopy
of this Agreement shall be effective as an original for all purposes.

By signing this Agreement, the Executive acknowledges that the Executive (1) has
read and understood the entire Agreement; (2) has received a copy of it; (3) has
had the opportunity to ask questions and consult counsel or other advisors about
its terms; and (4) agrees to be bound by it.
