Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On April 9, 2018, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Shoe Carnival, Inc. (the "Company") established the performance criteria and targets for the fiscal 2018 bonus payable in fiscal 2019 under the Company's 2016 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Executive Incentive Compensation Plan"). The performance criterion is operating income, calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("Operating Income"). Subjective factors based on an executive officer's individual performance can reduce an executive officer's bonus. Performance below the threshold level would result in no payout, performance at the threshold level of performance would result in a payout at 15% of the executive officer's target bonus amount and performance at the maximum level of performance would result in a payout at 150% of the executive officer's target bonus amount, with payout for performance between threshold and target and between target and maximum Operating Income interpolated.
The following table sets forth the percentage of salary the Company's executive officers could earn based upon the attainment of the various levels of Operating Income:

J. Wayne Weaver, Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors and an executive officer, will not participate in the Executive Incentive Compensation Plan in fiscal 2018.

The performance stock units may be earned based on the Company's earnings per diluted share for fiscal 2018. The Compensation Committee established a range of goals at threshold, target and maximum levels for which 25% to 125% of the target number of performance stock units may be earned. If the Company's fiscal 2018 diluted earnings per share falls between threshold and target or between target and maximum performance levels, the number of performance stock units that are earned will be calculated using straight-line interpolation. Performance below the threshold level would result in forfeiture of all of the performance stock units. Half of any earned performance stock units will vest on March 31, 2019 and the remaining half will vest on March 31, 2020, provided that the executive officer maintains continuous service with the Company through such dates.
The service-based restricted stock units granted to the executive officers vest in three equal annual installments commencing on March 31, 2019, provided that the executive officer maintains continuous service with the Company through such dates.
The restricted stock units and the performance stock units will be subject to the terms and conditions of the 2017 Plan. The 2017 Plan was previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on June 15, 2017. The service-based restricted stock units will also be subject to the terms and conditions of the Company's award agreement for service-based restricted stock units under the 2017 Plan (the "RSU Award Agreement"). The foregoing description of the RSU Award Agreement is intended only as a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of RSU Award Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10-C to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed by the Company with the SEC on August 31, 2017, and is incorporated hereby in reference. The performance stock units will also be subject to the terms and conditions of the Company's performance stock unit award agreement under the 2017 Plan (the "PSU Award Agreement"). The foregoing description of the PSU Award Agreement is intended only as a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of PSU Award Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
