(e) Retention Bonus Awards

On August 16, 2017, the CafePress Inc. (the “Company”) Compensation Committee of its Board of Directors (the “Committee”) approved and entered into retention award agreements (collectively referred to as the “Retention Award Agreements”) with certain senior executives of the Company, including Phillip L. Milliner, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Robert D. Barton, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, and Ekumene M. Lysonge, the Company’s Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary (collectively referred to as the “Executives”). In light of the Executives’ positions and responsibilities, and their value to the organization, the Committee approved the Retention Award Agreements to encourage the Executives to remain with the Company on a long-term basis and to contribute to the Company’s continued turnaround. Each Retention Award is contingent upon the Executives remaining continuously employed by the Company through July 1, 2019 (the “Retention Date”). The Retention Award amount for each Executive is as follows:
    
Executive Name
 
Retention Award Amount
Phillip L. Milliner
 
$125,000
Robert D. Barton
 
$112,500
Ekumene M. Lysonge
 
$96,000

One hundred percent (100%) of the Retention Award, due to each Executive that remains continuously employed by the Company through July 1, 2019, will become vested and payable on the Retention Date. The Retention Award(s) that become vested and payable on the Retention Date will be paid in a cash lump-sum payment on the Retention Date. Vesting of a Retention Award may be accelerated under certain circumstances. If, prior to the Retention Date, one of the Executives resign or his employment is terminated for cause (as defined in the Retention Award Agreement), he will not be entitled to receive any Retention Award payment. To the extent any Executive’s employment is terminated without cause or the Executive terminates his employment with Good Reason (as defined in the Retention Award Agreement), the Executive will be entitled to receive a lump-sum cash payment of the Retention Award within thirty (30) days following the date of such termination or removal.

The foregoing description of the Retention Award Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Retention Award Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
