"We offered some employees $1 in exchange for signing up to the nondisparagement clause, which technically makes it a binding contract because there was an exchange of value."
How would you interpret this part?
> and we're releasing former employees from existing nondisparagement obligations unless the nondisparagement provision was mutual.
