RETIREMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

Exhibit 10.1

This RETIREMENT AGREEMENT AND RELEASE (the “Agreement”) is made by and between Flexsteel Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx (referred to herein as “Executive”) (Executive and the Company, collectively, the “Parties”).

1. Retirement from Employment. The parties agree that Executive’s employment with the Company ended by reason of her retirement on September 9, 2018 (the “Retirement Date”). Regardless of whether Executive signs this Agreement:

A. The Company will pay Executive for all wages earned by Executive through the Retirement Date;

B. The Company will pay to Executive any payment(s) required or owed to Executive pursuant to any vested rights (including rights that vest upon termination) under the Company’s Cash Incentive Compensation Plan, 2013 Omnibus Stock Plan and/or Long-Term Incentive Plan or any Notification of Award pursuant to such plan(s) (the “Incentive Plans”) when any such payment(s) are due;

C. The Company will reimburse Executive for any reasonable business expenses incurred on behalf of the Company during Executive’s employment, provided that Executive provides the Company with documentation of such expenses in accordance with Company policy within three (3) weeks after the Retirement Date; and

D. The Company will consider Executive’s separation from employment with the Company as an involuntary termination of Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause and after Executive’s Retirement Date (as defined in the Omnibus Stock Plan) for purposes of: (i) Executive’s severance opportunity pursuant to the letter agreement with the Company executed by Executive on or about June 29, 2012, (“Executive’s Letter Agreement”); and (ii) any Company benefit plan, including without limitation the Incentive Plans.

2. Retirement Benefits. In exchange for Executive’s execution and acceptance of this Agreement, including the obligations set forth in Section 8 and 9 below, the Company will provide Executive the following (collectively, the “Retirement Benefits”):

A. A payment in the gross amount of One Million, One Hundred Forty Thousand, Nine Hundred, Forty-Five Dollars ($1,140,945), which amount is equal to eighteen (18) months of Executive’s ending base salary, plus an amount equal to one and one-half (1½) times Executive’s annual incentive bonus for the Company’s most recently completed fiscal year. Executive understands that the payment described in this Section 2A will be paid to Executive on or about the later of: (i) thirty (30) days after the Retirement Date; or (ii) three (3) business days following the end of the cancellation period provided in Section 12 of this Agreement and provided that Executive has not cancelled this Agreement;

B. If Executive elects to continue Executive’s health insurance coverage under the Company’s group health plan, the Company will, for a total of eighteen (18) months (the “Premium Payment Period”), reimburse Executive for the full monthly insurance premium for such coverage (both employer and employee portions and including premiums for continuation of coverage for any dependents enrolled in such plan on the Retirement Date). The Premium Payment Period shall run concurrently with Executive’s COBRA and any state benefits continuation period. Executive understands Executive is not required to participate in COBRA continuation under the Company’s plan and, instead of electing such coverage, may choose other coverage at Executive’s own expense if Executive prefers to do so. Executive also acknowledges that Executive has received appropriate notice from the Company regarding all benefit continuation rights, and that, in order to receive the premium payment described herein, Executive must timely sign and submit all documentation necessary to elect to continue Executive’s health insurance coverage under the Company’s plan and applicable law;

C. At the end of the 18-month period of COBRA coverage described in Section 2B above, Executive and Executive’s spouse will no longer be eligible to participate in the Company’s health insurance plan and will be responsible for selecting and purchasing health insurance coverage for Executive and Executive’s spouse. The Company will annually reimburse Executive for the cost of up to Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000) per month of Executive’s monthly premium for such health insurance coverage for each month beginning on April 1, 2020 and continuing ending on May 4, 2021, which reimbursement shall be prorated for the final partial month. All out-of-pocket expenses (including co-pays, deductibles and uncovered medical expenses) are Executive’s responsibility and are not subject to reimbursement. It will be Executive’s responsibility to submit a request for reimbursement to the Corporate Controller of Flexsteel Industries, Inc. with supporting documentation, each January for the previous calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive will not receive the premium reimbursements described in this Section 2C if Executive dies or if Executive becomes eligible, at any time, to participate in a group health insurance plan of any other business or entity; and

D. The Company will pay for a senior executive level outplacement program selected by Executive and reasonably approved by the Company.

Executive understands that Executive will receive the Retirement Benefits described in this Section 2 only if Executive satisfies all of Executive’s obligations under this Agreement, timely signs this Agreement as described in Section 12 below, and does not cancel this Agreement within the period provided in Section 13 below. Executive understands that if Executive does cancel this Agreement as set forth herein, Executive will not receive such benefits.

3. No Other Benefits. Executive understands that, except for those items of compensation specifically referenced in or provided through this Agreement, Executive shall receive no other compensation or benefits from the Company and is no longer participating in the Company’s benefit plans, except to the extent Executive is entitled to do so under state and federal benefits continuation laws. All of Executive’s rights under such plans shall be governed in accordance with the terms of such plans. Executive acknowledges receipt of applicable summary plan descriptions relating to such plans.

8. Confidential Information.

A. Definition of Confidential Information. For purposes hereof, “Confidential Information” means any non-public information, whether or not reduced to writing, regarding the Company or any of its Affiliates or any of their employees, managers, directors, representatives, suppliers, vendors, shareholders, owners, members, customers, or other third parties or entities with whom the Company or any such Affiliate does business, which Executive received, learned of or developed during any period that Executive provided services to the Company or its Affiliates.

Nothing in this Agreement is intended to conflict with any applicable law or create liability for disclosures expressly allowed by law.

D. Compelled Disclosure. In the event a third party seeks to compel, at any time, Executive’s disclosure of any information that may include Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process, Executive will, to the extent permitted by law, promptly notify the Company of such occurrence and furnish a copy of the demand, summons, subpoena, or other process served upon Executive to compel such disclosure and will permit the Company to assume, at the Company’s expense, but with Executive’s cooperation, defense of such disclosure demanded or requested. In the event that the Company refuses to contest such third party disclosure demand under judicial or administrative process, or if a final judicial order is issued compelling Executive’s disclosure of Confidential Information, Executive shall be entitled to disclose such specific information, and only such specific information, in compliance with the specific terms of such administrative or judicial process or order without violating Executive’s obligations under this Agreement.
