Current Report on Form 8-K

ITEM 1.02 TERMINATION OF A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On October 23, 2018, Regis Corporation (the “Company”) held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) in Edina, Minnesota. At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved the Regis Corporation 2018 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”). Upon approval of the 2018 Plan, the Company ceased granting awards under the Company’s 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”).

ITEM 5.02    DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

As described above, at the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2018 Plan. The 2018 Plan authorizes 1,900,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, plus any shares remaining available for issuance under the 2016 Plan as of the date of the Annual Meeting, for the issuance of awards under the 2018 Plan. Any employee, officer, director or other individual who is selected by the Compensation Committee, is eligible to receive an award under the 2018 Plan.

This summary of the 2018 Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2018 Plan, a copy of which is attached as Appendix A to the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 6, 2018 (the “Proxy Statement”).
