On April 14, 2016, Chico’s FAS, Inc. (the “Company”) and Shelley Broader, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, entered into an amendment to Ms. Broader’s employment letter agreement dated October 26, 2015. Ms. Broader’s letter agreement originally provided that in connection with her participation in the Company’s Executive Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”), the occurrence of a change in control (within the meaning of the Company’s 2012 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan) would constitute “Good Reason” for purposes of the Severance Plan. Pursuant to the amendment, a change in control will only constitute good reason for purposes of the Severance Plan if the change in control results in a substantial diminution in Ms. Broader’s duties or responsibilities.
The foregoing description of the amendment to Ms. Broader’s letter agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K.
