On October 31, 2007, Sport-Haley, Inc. (the Company) entered into an Amended Executive Employment Agreement with Catherine B. Blair, Vice President - Merchandising and Design, that is effective July 1, 2007. A copy of the Amended Executive Employment Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and the information contained therein is incorporated herein by reference.
The Amended Executive Employment Agreement requires that Ms. Blair devote her full business time as our Vice President of Merchandising/Design, at an annual salary of $160,000, for the 2008 fiscal year, and $175,000 per year thereafter, and such bonuses as awarded by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The amended agreement has an initial two year term, subject to automatic one-year extensions after each year. If the Company elects to terminate the amended agreement without cause (as defined in the agreement) or not to renew the agreement upon its expiration, or if Ms. Blair terminates the agreement with or without cause, she is entitled to receive severance compensation equal to fifteen months salary, plus 50% of the bonus, if any, paid to her in the preceding 12 months. During the time she were to receive any such severance compensation, Ms. Blair is entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans, at our expense. If there were to be a non-negotiated change in control of Sport-Haley, Inc., and either we or Ms. Blair terminate the agreement within sixty days of the change of control, then Ms. Blair is entitled to lump sum severance compensation equal to two times her annual salary and bonus payments during the preceding 12 months. The amended agreement contains a non-competition provision for twelve months following termination, provided Ms. Blair could be released from the non-competition clause if she were terminated without cause and if she had elected to forego any severance pay. If Ms. Blair becomes totally disabled, as defined in the agreement, during the term of the agreement, her full salary will be continued for one year from the date of total disability.
