Compensatory Arrangement with Chief Executive Officer
On May 25, 2017 (the Grant Date), the compensation committee of the board of directors (the Committee) of Smart & Final Stores, Inc. (the Company) made special performance-linked discretionary compensation awards to David G. Hirz, the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer. The awards recognize Mr. Hirzs important contributions as Chief Executive Officer and are intended to provide a strong incentive for his continued retention in a competitive market for executives in the grocery industry. Additionally, the performance goals are intended to align Mr. Hirzs equity compensation to the achievement of the Companys long-term strategic goals. Mr. Hirz (i) received a one-time cash bonus equal to $876,650 and (ii) 133,334 shares of restricted stock granted pursuant to the Smart & Final Stores, Inc. Amended and Restated 2014 Stock Incentive Plan.
Vesting of the shares of restricted stock is subject to satisfaction of both time-based and performance-based vesting criteria as established by the Committee (the Performance Goals) and set forth in the related award agreement. The shares of restricted stock vest upon the later of (i) the date on which the Performance Goals are achieved and (ii) the first and second anniversaries of the Grant Date (with respect to 50% of the award on each such date), subject to Mr. Hirzs continued employment with the Company on all such dates. If the Performance Goals are not achieved by the expiration of the Performance Period (as defined in the award agreement), the shares of restricted stock will be forfeited.
The foregoing description of the award agreement is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the award agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and by this reference incorporated herein.
