Pursuant to the 2015 Employment Agreement, the Company agreed to continue to employ Mr. Kathwari and Mr. Kathwari agreed to remain as Chairman, President and Principal Executive Officer of the Company and Ethan Allen Global, Inc., for a period of approximately five years, with two automatic one-year extensions, commencing in 2021. Mr. Kathwari will be entitled to an annual incentive bonus based upon Company performance thresholds, targets, and maximums established by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board of Directors. Mr. Kathwari will also be entitled to performance-based restricted stock units ("Performance Units") providing a contingent right to receive shares of the Company's common stock, conditioned upon the Company's achievement of certain performance targets and goals. Each fiscal year during the term of Mr. Kathwari's employment under the 2015 Employment Agreement, Mr. Kathwari shall be granted Performance Units entitling Mr. Kathwari to earn 0 to 81,250 shares of the common stock, with each such grant to be made within ninety (90) days of the beginning of each fiscal year, contingent upon the performance of the Company in accordance with the 2015 Employment Agreement. For each grant of Performance Units, the amount of the grant that will be earned and paid will be determined by reference to the achievement of certain performance goals for each of the two initial fiscal years (on a cumulative basis) and the three fiscal years (on a cumulative basis) applicable to such grant.
