Exhibit 10.25
EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE/NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT
In this Executive Severance/Non-Compete Agreement dated as of _____ 2006 (the "Agreement"}, Sears Holdings Corporation and its controlled affiliates and subsidiaries ("Sears"), and Bruce Johnson ("Executive"), intending to be legally bound and for good and valuable consideration, agree as follows:
		
	1.
	Severance Benefits.


(a)     Continuation of Compensation.   In the event that (x) Executive's employment  is terminated  by each Sears entity by which she is employed (the "Company")  for any reason other than Cause (as defined below), death or Disability (as defined below} or (y) Executive's employment  is terminated by Executive for Good Reason (as defined below), subject to the provisions of Sections 6(e) and (f) and 10 herein, the Company shall pay to Executive his annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to the date of termination for a period of one (1) year and Executive's target bonus for the year in which the date of termination has occurred or, if no target bonus has been set for the year in which the date of termination has occurred, Executive's target bonus for the year immediately preceding the year in which the date of termination has occurred (the 'Target Bonus"); provided that, in any event, Sears' obligations under this clause 1 shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar  basis (but not below zero) to the extent that Executive earns fees, salary or wages from a subsequent employer (including those arising from self-employment) during the Salary Continuation Period (as defined below). The amount described in Section 1 (a) shall be paid on each regular payroll period commencing on the date of termination (the "Salary  Continuation Period")  provided that if at the time that the executive terminates employment  the executive is a "key employee" or "specified employee" within the meaning of Code Section 409A and regulations issued thereunder, then, if necessary to comply with Section 409A, payment to the executive shall not commence  until six months after the executive's termination of employment.   In addition to the foregoing, a lump sum payment will be made to Executive within ten (10) days following the date of termination in an amount equal to the sum of any accrued base salary through the date of termination  to the extent not theretofore paid and any vacation benefits that accrued prior to the date of termination.  No vacation will accrue after the date active employment ends.  All salary continuation payments and benefits will terminate and forever lapse if Executive is employed by a "Sears Competitor" as defined in Section 6(b) herein.


(b)     Continuation of Benefits.  During the Salary Continuation Period, Executive will be entitled to all benefits (other than as specified above) for which Executive was eligible to participate prior to the end of active employment, with the exception of Long-Term Disability and Flexible Spending  Accounts. Executive and eligible dependents shall be entitled to continue to participate in the Company's medical and dental plans in accordance with the Consolidated  Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 ("COBRA").  The cost of such COBRA coverage for Executive and his dependents will be subsidized by the Company, so that Executive will be paying the same premium for medical and dental plan coverage during the Salary Continuation Period as an active employee. However, in the event Executive becomes employed by another employer and is covered by such employer's health benefits plan or program, the medical and dental benefits provided by the Company hereunder shall be secondary to such employer's health benefits plan or program in accordance with the terms of the Company's health benefit plans
(c)     Long-Term Performance Program.   The Long Term Performance Incentive Program grant for any multi-year performance period will be treated at termination of active employment in accordance with the provisions of its respective program document or grant letter.
(d)     Outplacement. From the date of termination pursuant to the first sentence of Section 1 (a), Executive will be immediately eligible for outplacement services at the Company's expense.    The Company and Executive will mutually agree on which outplacement firm, among current vendors used by the Company, will provide these services.  Such services will be provided for up to one (1) year from the beginning of the Salary Continuation Period or until employment is obtained, whichever occurs first.
2.     Definitions.   For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the definitions as set forth below:









(a)     "Cause" shall mean (1) a material breach by Executive (other than a breach resulting from Executive's incapacity due to a mental or physical disability) of Executive's duties and responsibilities which breach is demonstrably  willful and deliberate on Executive's part, is committed  in bad faith or without reasonable belief that such breach is in the best interests of Sears and is not remedied in a reasonable period of time after receipt of written notice from Sears specifying such breach, (2) the commission  by Executive of a felony involving moral turpitude,  or (3) dishonesty or willful misconduct in connection with Executive's employment; and
(b)     "Disability" shall mean disability as defined under the long-term disability plan of Sears applicable to Executive.
(c)     "Good Reason" shall mean, without Executive's written consent, (i) a reduction of more than 10% in the sum of Executive's annual base salary and target bonus from those in effect as of the date of this Agreement, (ii) a change in reporting relationship  such that Executive  reports to anyone other than the Chief Executive Officer, the Chairman  of the Board, the Board of directors, (iii) a reduction in title or a material diminution  in duties, (iv) Executive's mandatory relocation  to an office more than 50 miles from the. primary location at which Executive is required to perform Executive's duties immediately prior to the date of this Agreement or (v) failure of a successor company  to assume or fulfill the obligations under this Agreement.
3.     Non-Disparagement.  Executive will not take any actions detrimental to the interests of Sears, nor make derogatory statements, either written or oral to any third party, or otherwise publicly disparage Sears, its products, services, or present or former employees, officers or directors, and will not authorize others to make derogatory or disparaging statements on Executive's behalf.
4.     Intellectual Property Rights.  Executive acknowledges  that Executive's development, work or research on any and all inventions or expressions  of ideas, patentable or not, hereafter made or conceived solely or jointly within the scope of employment  at Sears, provided such invention or expression of an idea relates to the business of Sears, or relates to Sears actual or demonstrably  anticipated  research or development, or results from any work performed by Executive for or on behalf of Sears, are hereby assigned  to Sears, including Executive's entire rights, title and interest.  Executive will promptly disclose such invention or expression of an idea to Executive's management and will, upon request, promptly execute a specific written assignment of title to Sears.  If Executive currently holds any inventions or expressions of an idea, regardless of whether they were published or filed with the US.  Patent and Trademark Office, or is under contract to not so assign, Executive will list them on the last page of this Agreement.
5.    Confidentiality.  Executive agrees that the existence and terms of the Agreement, including the compensation paid to Executive, and discussions with Sears regarding this Agreement, shall be considered confidential and shall not be disclosed or communicated in any manner except:  (a) as required by law or legal process; (b) to Executive's spouse, domestic partner, or financial/legal advisors, all of whom shall agree to keep such information confidential.
6.     Protective Covenants.  Executive acknowledges that this Agreement provides for additional consideration beyond what Sears is otherwise obligated to pay.  In consideration of the opportunity for severance benefits and special payments specified above, and other good and valuable consideration, Executive agrees to the following:
(a)    Non-Disclosure and Non-Solicitation.  Executive acknowledges that Executive has previously or has simultaneously executed and will continue to be bound by an Executive Non-Disclosure and Non­ Solicitation of Employees Agreement, which agreement sets forth, among other things, the definition of Sears Confidential Information and is incorporated by reference herein.
(b)     Non-Competition.  Executive acknowledges that as a result of Executive's position at Sears, Executive has learned or developed, or will learn or develop, Sears Confidential Information and that use or disclosure of such Confidential  Information  is likely to occur if Executive were to render advice or services to any Sears Competitor.
i.    Therefore, for one (1) year from Executive's last day of active employment, whether or not Executive receives severance benefits pursuant to Section 1 hereto ("Severance Pay"), Executive will not, directly or 









indirectly, aid, assist, participate in, consult with, render services for, accept a position with, become employed by, or otherwise enter into any relationship with (other than having a passive ownership interest in or being a customer of) any Sears Competitor.
ii.    For purposes of this Agreement, "Sears Competitor" means
1.    Those companies  listed on Appendix  A, each of which Executive acknowledges is a Sears Competitor, whether or not it falls within the categories in (2), below, and further acknowledges  that this is not an exclusive list of Sears Competitors  and is not intended to limit the generality of subsection 6(b)(ii)(2), below, and
2.    Any party (A) engaged in any retail business (whether in a department store, specialty store, discount store, direct marketing, or electronic commerce or other business format), that consists of selling furniture, appliances, electronics, hardware, auto parts and/or apparel products, or providing home improvement, product repair and/or home services, with combined annual revenue in excess of $500 million, (B) any vendor with combined annual gross sales of services or merchandise to Sears in excess of $100 million, or (C) a party engaged in any other line of business,  in which Sears has commenced business prior to the end of Executive's active employment,  with Sears having annual gross sales in that line of business in excess of$50 million.
iii.    Executive acknowledges  that Sears shall have the right to propose modifications  to Appendix B periodically to include (1) emergent Competitors in Sears existing lines of business and (2) Competitors in lines of business that are new for Sears with the prior written consent of Executive, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
iv.    Executive further acknowledges  that Sears does business throughout the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada and that this non-compete provision applies in any state of the United States, Puerto Rico or province of Canada in which Sears does business.
(c)     Executive will provide Sears with such information as Sears may from time to time reasonably request to determine Executive's compliance with this Agreement Executive authorizes Sears to contact Executive's future employers and other entities with which Executive has any business relationship to determine Executive's compliance with this Agreement or to communicate  the contents of this Agreement to such employers and entities Executive releases Sears, its agents and employees, from all liability for any damage arising from any such contacts or communications.
(d)     Executive agrees that the restrictions set forth above are necessary to prevent the use and disclosure of Sears Confidential Information and to otherwise protect the legitimate business interests of Sears.  Executive further agrees and acknowledges that the provisions of this Agreement are reasonable.
(e)     Upon the termination of Executive's employment by either party, Executive will execute a binding General Release and Waiver of claims in a form to be provided by Sears, which is incorporated by reference herein.  This General Release and Waiver will be in a form substantially similar to the attached sample   If the General Release and Waiver is not signed or is signed but subsequently revoked, Executive will not receive Severance Pay (if any) or any other benefits due under this Agreement.
(f)     Executive acknowledges that irreparable harm would result from any breach or threatened breach by Executive of the provisions of this Agreement, and monetary damages alone would not provide adequate relief for any such breach.  Accordingly, if Executive breaches or threatens to breach this Agreement, Executive consents to injunctive relief in favor of Sears without the necessity of Sears posting bond.  Moreover, any award of injunctive relief shall not preclude Sears from seeking or recovering any lawful compensatory damages which may have resulted from a breach of this Agreement, including a forfeiture of any payments not yet made and a return of any payments already received by Executive
(g)     Any waiver, or failure to seek enforcement or remedy for any breach or suspected breach, of any provision of this Agreement by Sears or Executive in any instance shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision in the future,









(h)     Executive may request (i) a waiver of the non-competition provisions of this Agreement or (ii) that the time frame in Section 6(b}, above, commence during Executive's continued employment with Sears, by written request to the Chief Executive Officer of Sears or the equivalent.  Such a request will be given reasonable consideration and may be granted, in whole or in part, or denied at Sears' absolute discretion.
7.    Except as specifically provided in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 1 and Sections 6(e) and (f) and 10, such compensation and benefits shall not be reduced whether or not Executive obtains other employment (it being agreed, however, that Executive shall be obligated to seek other employment).
8.     Executive agrees, without receiving additional compensation, to fully and completely cooperate with Sears, both during and after the period of active employment, in all investigations, potential litigation or litigation in which Sears is involved or may become involved other than any such investigations, potential litigation or litigation between Sears and Executive.  Sears will reimburse Executive for reasonable travel and out-of pocket expenses incurred in connection with any such investigations, potential litigation or litigation.
9.    Executive agrees that both during and after the period of active employment with Sears, Executive will not voluntarily act as a witness, consultant or expert for any person or party in any action against or involving Sears or any corporate relative of Sears, unless subject to judicial enforcement to appear as a fact witness only.
10.     In the event of a breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Agreement, including but not limited to the non-disparagement provision (Section .3  herein), and the non-competition provisions (Section 6 herein)  of this Agreement, Sears  obligation to make salary continuation or any other  payments under this Agreement will immediately cease.
11.    If any provision(s) of this Agreement shall  be found  invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, in whole  or in part, then such  provision(s) shall  be modified  or restricted so as to effectuate as nearly as possible in a valid  and enforceable way the provisions hereof; or shall be deemed excised from this Agreement, as the case may require, and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced to the maximum extent  permitted by law, as if such  provision(s) had been originally incorporated herein as so modified or restricted or as if such provision(s) had not been originally incorporated herein,  as the case may be.
12.    This Agreement will be governed under the internal laws of the state of Illinois without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.  Executive agrees that the state and federal courts located  in the state  of Illinois shall  have exclusive jurisdiction in any action, Suit or proceeding based  on or arising out of this Agreement, and Executive hereby: (a) submits to the personal  jurisdiction of such courts; (b) consents to the service of process  in connection with any action,  suit, or proceeding against Executive; and (c) waives any other  requirement (whether imposed  by statute, rule of court, or otherwise) with respect  to personal jurisdiction, venue or service of process.
13.     Executive agrees to waive  any right to a jury  trial on any claim  contending that this Agreement or the General Release and Waiver  is illegal or unenforceable in whole  or in part, and Executive agrees  to try any claims brought  in a court or tribunal  without use of a jury or advisory jury.   Further, should any claim arising out of Executive's employment or termination of employment be found by a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction to not be released by the General Release and Waiver, Executive agrees to try such claim to the court or tribunal without use of a jury or advisory jury.
14.    This Agreement does not constitute a contract of employment, and Executive acknowledges that Executive's employment with Sears is terminable "at-will" by either party with or without cause and with or without notice.
15.     If any provision of this Agreement conflicts with any other agreement, policy, plan, practice or other Sears document, then the provisions of this Agreement will control Executive shall not be eligible for any benefits under the Sears Transition Pay Plan or any successor severance plan or program.   This Agreement will supersede any prior  agreement between Executive and Sears  with  respect  to the subject  matter contained herein, including the Employment Agreement between Executive and Kmart Management Corporation dated September 15, 2003 (with  the exception of the Executive Non-Disclosure and Non-Solicitation of Employees Agreement dated  February_, 









2006)  and may be amended  only  by a writing signed by an authorized officer  of Sears.
16.     All compensation paid or provided to Executive under this Agreement shall be subject to any applicable federal, state or local income and employment tax withholding requirements.
17.     Sears may assign its rights under this Agreement to any successor in interest, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets, or otherwise.  This Agreement shall be binding whether it is between Sears and Executive or between any successor or assignee of Sears or affiliate thereof and Executive.
18.     This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, which together shall constitute a valid and binding agreement.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Executive and Sears, by its duly authorized representative, have executed this Agreement effective as of the date set forth below.

William Bruce Johnson:                            February 1, 2006
_____________________________________________________________________________________
In order for Sears Holdings Corporation and its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "Sears" or the "Company"), to maintain a competitive edge, Sears must protect its Confidential Information and the stability of its workforce 
Therefore, as a condition of my employment, I agree as follows:
DEFINITIONS
		
	1.
	"Sears  Confidential Information" means trade secrets and non-public information which Sears designates as being confidential or which; under the ci1Cumstances, should be treated as confidential,  including, without limitation, any information received in confidence or developed by Sears, its long and short term goals, vendor and supply agreements, databases, methods, programs, techniques, business information, financial information, marketing and business plans,  prop1ietary software, personnel infom1ation and  tiles, client  information, pricing, and other infom1ation relating to the business of Sears that is not known generally to the public or in the industry.


NON-DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
		
	2.
	I will not during the term of my employment with Sears or thereafter, except as Sears may otherwise consent or direct in writing, reveal or disclose, sell, use, lecture upon or publish any  Sears Confidential Information until such time as the information becomes publicly known othe1 than as a result of its disclosure, directly or indirectly, by you.


		
	3.
	



		
	4.
	I understand that if I possess any proprietary infonm1tion of another person or company as a result of prior employment or otherwise, Sears expects and requires that I will honor any and all legal obligations that I have to that person or company with respect to proprietary information, and I will refrain from any unauthorized use or disclosure of such information.


RETURN OF SEARS PROROPERTY
		
	5.
	All documents and other property which relate to the business of Sears are the exclusive property of Sears, even if I authored or created them.  I agree to return all such documents and tangible property to Sears upon termination of employment or at such earlier time as Sears may request me to do so.


CONFLICT OF INTEREST
		
	6.
	During my employment, except as may be approved in writing by the company, neither I nor members of my immediate family will have financial investments or other interests or relationships with the Company's 











customers, suppliers or competitors which might impair my independence of judgment on behalf of the Company.  I also agree not to engage in any activity in competition with the Company and will avoid any outside activity that could adversely affect the independence and objectivity of my judgment, interfere with the timely and effective performance of my duties and responsibilities to the Company, discredit the Company or otherwise conflict with the Company's best interests.
NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES
		
	7.
	During my employment with Sears and for one (1) year thereafter, I shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit or encourage any person to leave his/her employment with Sears or assist in any way with the hiring of any Sears employee by any other business.


IRREPARABLE HARM
		
	8.
	Irreparable harm would result from any breach by me of the provisions of this Agreement, and monetary damages alone would not provide adequate relief for any such breach.  Accordingly, if I breach this Agreement, injunctive relief in favor of Sears is proper, without the necessity of Sears posting a bond.  Moreover, any award of injunctive relief shall not preclude Sears from seeking or recovering any lawful compensatory damages which may have resulted from a breach of this Agreement, including a forfeiture of any future payments and a return of any payments already received by me.


SEVERABILITY
		
	9.
	If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid by a court, the remaining provisions will nonetheless be enforced according to their terms.  Further, if any provision is held to be overbroad, a court may modify that provision to the extent necessary to make the provision enforceable according to applicable law and enforce the provision as modified.


GOVERNING LAW
		
	10.
	This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Illinois. I agree that the state and federal courts located in the State of Illinois shall have exclusive jurisdiction in any action, suit or proceeding based on or arising out of this Agreement, and I submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts, consent to the service of process in connection with any action, suit or proceeding against me, and waive any objections to jurisdiction, venue or service of process.


BURDEN AND BENEFIT
		
	11.
	Sears may assign its rights under this Agreement to any successor in interest, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets, or otherwise. This Agreement shall be binding whether it is between Sears and me or between any successor or assign of Sears and me.


NO EFFECT ON TERM OF EMPLOYMENT
		
	12.
	Nothing in this Agreement prevents or limits my right to terminate my employment at any time for any reason, and nothing in this Agreement prevents or limits the Company from terminating my employment at any time for any reason.  I understand and agree that there exist no promises or guarantees of permanent employment or employment for any specified term by the Company.


ENTIRE AGREEMENT
		
	13.
	I understand that this Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding between Sears and me with respect to the provisions contained in this Agreement, and that no representations, promises, agreements, or understandings, written or oral, related thereto which are not contained in this Agreement will be given any force or effect. No change or modification of this Agreement will be valid or binding unless it is in writing and signed by the party against whom the change or modification is sought to be enforced.  I further understand that even if Sears waives or fails to enforce any provision of this Agreement in one instance, that will not constitute a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement at this time, or a waiver of that provision at any other time.
