There is usually a warranty contained within a compromise agreement where the employee warrants that he or she has not received a job offer. If the employee has in fact received a job offer, he or she would need to ensure that this is deleted before signing the compromise agreement. Otherwise, he or she would be deemed to have breached this warranty and thus be in breach of contract.
