On March 8, 2012, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Sport Chalet, Inc. (the "Company") authorized the Chief Executive Officer to grant nonqualified options to purchase up to 260,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to employees, other than executive officers. The exercise price of the options will be the closing price of the Class A Common Stock on the date of grant, and each option will have a term of ten years from the date of grant and will become exercisable (vest) in five equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant.
On March 8, 2012, the Compensation Committee also granted options to each executive officer of the Company, other than Craig Levra, the Chief Executive Officer, to purchase the number of shares of Class A Common Stock set forth opposite such officer's name in the table below:

Mr. Levra has advised the Company that he intends to use the bonus to reduce the outstanding balance of a loan from an unrelated third party obtained to pay his income taxes resulting from the 2005 recapitalization plan and for subsequent purchases of Class B Common Stock, for which 791,435 shares of Class B Common Stock are pledged as collateral.
