Exhibit 4.6


 


RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT


(Performance Based)


 


This Restricted
Stock UNIT Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Tuesday Morning Corporation,
a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Paul Metcalf (the “Participant”) effective
as of September __, 2021 (the “Date of Grant”). The Awarded Units are being granted solely pursuant to
this Agreement and not pursuant to the Tuesday Morning Corporation 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”),
or any other equity incentive plan of the Company. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement, however, shall have the
meanings given to such terms in the Plan, which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.


 


Whereas,
the Company desires to grant to the Participant the Awarded Units (as defined below) as an inducement material to the Participant’s
entry into employment with the Company within the meaning of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4), subject to the terms and conditions
hereof and the Plan (despite the Awarded Units not being granted under the Plan);


 


WHEREAS,
the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”)
has approved this grant of the Awarded Units; and


 


WHEREAS,
the Participant desires to have the opportunity to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common
Stock”), upon the vesting of the Awarded Units, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, the
terms of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety;


 


Now,
therefore, in consideration of the premises, mutual covenants and agreements
contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties
hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:


 


		1.	Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Effective as of the Date of Grant, the Company shall grant
to the Participant an award of ___________ Restricted Stock Units (the “Awarded Units”), which may be converted
into the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units, subject to the terms and conditions provided
in this Agreement and the Plan. Each Awarded Unit shall be a notional share of Common Stock, with the value of each Awarded Unit being
equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock at any time. In accepting the award of the Awarded Units set forth in this Agreement,
the Participant accepts and agrees to be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement.



 


		2.	Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings indicated
below:



 


		(a)	“Cause” has the meaning set forth in the Employment Agreement.



 


		(b)	“Employment Agreement” means that certain Employment Agreement, dated as of
September __, 2021, by and between the Company and the Participant.



 






    


     


    

 


		(c)	“Good Reason” has the meaning set forth in the Employment Agreement.



 


		(d)	“Termination of Service”
has the meaning set forth in the Plan, except that, to the extent otherwise provided in the Plan, a “Termination of Service”
shall not be deemed to have occurred under this Agreement if the Participant ceases to be an Employee but continues to serve as an Outside
Director or Contractor.



 


		3.	Vesting. Subject to the provisions hereof and the provisions of the Plan, the Awarded Units
will vest as follows:



 


		(a)	Generally. Awarded Units shall be subject to both time and performance vesting conditions and will
only be fully vested when both the time vesting and performance vesting conditions have been satisfied in accordance with the terms of
this Section 3. Awarded Units that have become fully vested are collectively referred to herein as “Vested PRSUs.”
All other Awarded Units are collectively referred to herein as “Unvested PRSUs.”



 


		(i)	Time Vesting. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement and subject to certain restrictions
and conditions set forth in the Plan, the Awarded Units shall time vest as follows, with an equal amount of Tranche A Units and Tranche
B Units (each as defined below) time vesting on each such date; provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination of
Service prior to the applicable vesting date:



 


	Date	 	Percentage of Awarded 
 Units that Time Vest	 
	24-month anniversary of the Date of Grant	 	 	50	%
	36-month anniversary of the Date of Grant	 	 	25	%
	48-month anniversary of the Date of Grant	 	 	25	%




 


		(ii)	Performance Vesting. The Awarded Units shall be divided into two equal tranches, referred to hereunder
as “Tranche A Units,” and Tranche B Units.” Each tranche of the Awarded Units will performance
vest if the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock equals or exceeds the applicable threshold set forth below for a period of 30 consecutive
trading days (as determined by the Committee in accordance with the definition of Fair Market Value) during the period commencing on the
Date of Grant and ending on the 48-month anniversary of the Date of Grant:



 


	Tranche	 	Applicable Threshold	 
	Tranche A Units	 	$	9.00	 
	Tranche B Units	 	$	12.00	 




 






    2 


     


    

 


In
the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Stock, other securities, or other property), recapitalization,
stock split, reverse stock split, rights offering, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, split-off, combination,
subdivision, repurchase, or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase
Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the fair value of the Awarded
Units, then the Committee may equitably adjust the performance vesting thresholds to the extent the Committee deems necessary to prevent
enlargement or dilution of the Participant’s rights with respect to the Awarded Units.


 


		(b)	Termination of Service.



 


		(i)	Death or Total and Permanent Disability. If the Participant incurs a Termination of Service due
to the Participant’s death or Total and Permanent Disability, in each case, prior to last vesting date set forth in Section 3(a)(i),
then all Unvested PRSUs shall immediately become Vested PRSUs on the date of such Termination of Service due to death or Total and Permanent
Disability.



 


		(ii)	Other Terminations of Service. If the Participant incurs a Termination of Service for any reason
other than as set forth in Section 3(b)(i), then all Unvested PRSUs shall be forfeited and automatically cancelled for no
consideration. Upon such forfeiture, all of the Participant’s rights with respect to the forfeited Awarded Units shall cease and
terminate, without any further obligations on the part of the Company; provided, however, that, (A) if any Awarded
Units that have time-vested but remain Unvested PRSUs as of the date of such Termination of Service, and (B) the Termination of Service
occurs either by the Company without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason, then such Unvested PRSUs shall continue to be eligible
to performance vest under the terms of Section 3(a)(ii) during the one-year period following such Termination of Service
by the Company without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason, at which point any then Unvested PRSUs shall be forfeited and automatically
cancelled for no consideration.



 


		(c)	Change in Control. Notwithstanding any
contrary provision in this Section 3, if a Change in Control occurs prior to the date of the Participant’s Termination
of Service, then (i) all Awarded Units that have not time-vested as of the date of the consummation of such Change in Control (the
 “Change in Control Date”) shall immediately become time vested on the Change in Control Date, (ii) all
Awarded Units that have not performance-vested as of the Change in Control Date will performance vest on the Change in Control Date if
the fair market value of the consideration received in respect of a share of Common Stock in connection with, or the fair market value
of a share of Common Stock implied by, such Change in Control (as determined by the Committee in its good faith discretion) equals or
exceeds the applicable threshold for such tranche set forth in Section 3(a)(ii), and (iii) all then Unvested RSUs (after
taking into account any vesting under clauses (i) and (ii)) shall be forfeited and automatically cancelled for no consideration,
and all of Participant’s rights with respect to the forfeited Unvested RSUs shall cease and terminate, without any further obligations
on the part of the Company.



 






    3 


     


    

 


		(d)	Forfeiture Upon Violation of Restrictive Covenants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, in the event the Participant fails to comply with any confidentiality, noncompetition, or nonsolicitation covenants made by Participant
in favor of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, those contained in the Employment Agreement (collectively,
the “Restrictive Covenants”), then (i) the Participant shall forfeit all of the Participant’s Unvested
PRSUs, and all of the Participant’s rights with respect to the forfeited Unvested PRSUs shall cease and terminate, without any further
obligations on the part of the Company, and (ii) any Vested PRSUs that have not yet been converted into shares of Common Stock and
delivered to the Participant in accordance with Section 4 shall be immediately forfeited and this Agreement (other than the
provisions of this Section 3(d)) will terminate on the date of such violation.



 


		4.	Conversion of Awarded Units. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement, upon
or as soon as practicable following the date that any Awarded Units become Vested PRSUs, and in no event, later than 60 days after
such date, the Company shall settle the Vested PRSUs in the number of whole shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Vested PRSUs
and shall deliver to the Participant (or, in the event of the Participant’s Death or Total and Permanent Disability, his or her
personal representative), if requested by the Participant (or, if applicable, his or her personal representative) as described in Section 6.4(a) of
the Plan, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Participant (or, if applicable, his or her personal representative) a stock certificate
representing such shares of Common Stock, and such Common Stock shall thereafter be transferable by the Participant (except to the extent
that any proposed transfer would, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, constitute a violation of applicable securities
law).



 


		5.	Capital Adjustments and Reorganizations. The existence of the Awarded Units shall not affect
in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization
or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, engage in any merger or consolidation, issue any debt or equity
securities, dissolve or liquidate, or sell, lease, exchange or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its assets or business, or engage
in any other corporate act or proceeding.



 


		6.	No Fractional Shares. All provisions of this Agreement concern whole shares of Common Stock.
If the application of any provision hereunder would yield a fractional share, such fractional share shall be rounded down to the next
whole share if it is less than 0.5 and rounded up to the next whole share if it is 0.5 or more.



 


		7.	Not an Employment Agreement. This Agreement is not an employment or service agreement, and
no provision of this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted to create an employment or service relationship between the Participant
and the Company or guarantee the right to continue in the employment of the Company or a Subsidiary for any specified term or limit the
Company’s authority to terminate the Participant’s employment.



 






    4 


     


    

 


		8.	Limit of Liability. Under no circumstances will the Company or an Affiliate be liable for
any indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages (including lost profits or taxes) of any form incurred by any person, whether
or not foreseeable and regardless of the form of the act in which such a claim may be brought, with respect to the Plan, this Agreement,
or the Awarded Units.



 


		9.	Notices. Any notice, instruction, authorization, request, or demand required hereunder shall
be in writing, and shall be delivered either by personal delivery, telegram, telex, telecopy, or similar facsimile means, by certified
or registered mail, return receipt requested, or by courier or delivery service, addressed to the Company at the Company’s principal
business office address and to the Participant at the Participant’s residential address as shown in the records of the Company,
or at such other address and number as a party shall have previously designated by written notice given to the other party in the manner
hereinabove set forth. Notices shall be deemed given when received, if sent by facsimile means (confirmation of such receipt by confirmed
facsimile transmission being deemed receipt of communications sent by facsimile means); and when delivered (or upon the date of attempted
delivery where delivery is refused), if hand-delivered, sent by express courier or delivery service, or sent by certified or registered
mail, return receipt requested.



 


		10.	Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Plan, or as necessary
to implement the provisions of the Plan, this Agreement may be amended, modified, or superseded only by written instrument executed, or
an electronic agreement agreed to, by the Company and the Participant. Only a written instrument executed and delivered by, or an electronic
agreement agreed to by, the party waiving compliance hereof shall waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement. Any waiver granted
by the Company shall be effective only if executed and delivered by a duly authorized director or officer of the Company other than the
Participant. The failure of any party at any time or times to require performance of any provisions hereof shall in no manner effect the
right to enforce the same. No waiver by any party of any term or condition, or the breach of any term or condition contained in this Agreement,
in one or more instances, shall be construed as a continuing waiver of any such condition or breach, a waiver of any other condition,
or the breach of any other term or condition.



 


		11.	Governing Law and Severability. The validity, construction, and performance of this Agreement
shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise
refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction. The invalidity of any provision
of this Agreement shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.



 


		12.	Successors and Assigns. Subject to the limitations that this Agreement imposes upon the
transferability of the Awarded Units granted hereby, this Agreement shall bind, be enforceable by and inure to the benefit of the Company
and its successors and assigns, and to the Participant, the Participant’s permitted assigns and upon the Participant’s death,
the Participant’s estate and beneficiaries thereof (whether by will or the laws of descent and distribution), executors, administrators,
agents, legal and personal representatives.



 






    5 


     


    

 


		13.	Miscellaneous. The Awarded Units are being granted solely pursuant to this Agreement and
not pursuant to the Plan. Without limiting the foregoing, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the terms and conditions of
the Plan as amended as of the Date of Grant, except for Article 5 of the Plan, are incorporated herein and made a part hereof.



 


		14.	Section 409A; Six Month Delay. It is the intent of the Participant and the Company
that this Agreement and all payments and benefits to Participant hereunder be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A
of the Code so that none of the Awarded Units provided under this Agreement or shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder will be subject
to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A of the Code, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or so
comply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of a conversion of Awarded Units and distribution of shares of Common
Stock in accordance with Section 4 on account of any Termination of Service (other than death), if the Participant is a “specified
employee” as defined in § 1.409A-1(i) of the final regulations under Section 409A of the Code, then solely to
the extent required under Section 409A of the Code, a distribution of the number of such shares to the Participant (determined after
application of the withholding requirements set forth in Section 15 below) shall not occur until the date which is six months
following the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service (or, if earlier, the date of the Participant’s death). It is
intended that each conversion and settlement of shares of Common Stock to be delivered under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate
payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.



 


		15.	Tax Withholding. The Company or, if applicable, any Subsidiary (for purposes of this Section 15,
the term “Company” shall be deemed to include any applicable Subsidiary), shall be entitled to deduct from other
compensation payable to the Participant any sums required by federal, state or local tax law to be withheld with respect to the vesting
of the Awarded Units under this Agreement. Alternatively, the Company may require the Participant to pay such sums for taxes directly
to the Company in cash or by check within one day after the vesting date. Such payments shall be required to be made when requested by
the Company and may be required to be made prior to the delivery of any certificate representing shares of Common Stock, if such certificate
is requested by the Participant (or, if applicable, his personal representative) in writing in accordance with procedures established
by the Committee. Such payment may be made by (a) the delivery of cash to the Company in an amount that equals or exceeds (to avoid
the issuance of fractional shares under clause (c) below) the required tax withholding obligations of the Company; (b) if
the Company, in its sole discretion, so consents in writing, the actual delivery by the Participant to the Company of shares of Common
Stock that the Participant has not acquired from the Company within six months prior thereto, which shares so delivered have an aggregate
Fair Market Value that equals or exceeds (to avoid the issuance of fractional shares under clause (c) below) the required tax
withholding payment; (c) if the Company so consents in writing, the Company’s withholding of a number of shares to be delivered
upon the vesting of the Awarded Units, which shares so withheld have an aggregate Fair Market Value that equals (but does not exceed)
the required tax withholding payment; or (d) any combination of the methods set forth in clause (a), (b), or (c).



 






    6 


     


    

 


		16.	Limitation on Excess Parachute Payments. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement
to the contrary, any payment or benefit received or to be received by the Participant in connection with a Change in Control or the termination
of employment (whether payable under the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company (collectively,
the “Payments”) that would constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G
of the Code, shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion thereof shall be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999
of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), but only if, by reason of such reduction, the net after-tax benefit received
by the Participant shall exceed the net after-tax benefit that would be received by the Participant if no such reduction was made.



 


		17.	Acceptance. The Participant, by his or her acceptance of the Awarded Units, agrees to be
bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of the Plan.



 


		18.	Affirmation of Restrictive Covenants. The Participant hereby re-affirms and ratifies all
the Restrictive Covenants and acknowledges the Restrictive Covenants are independent and continuing obligations of the Participant. The
Participant acknowledges that the Participant’s ratification of the Restrictive Covenants is a material inducement to the Company
to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and that the Awarded Units would not be granted to the Participant
if the Participant did not affirm the Participant’s obligations to abide by the Restrictive Covenants (it being understood, however,
that the ratification in this Section 18 shall in no event be construed to imply that the terms of the Restrictive Covenants
are not now in full force and effect).



 


		19.	Disclaimer of Reliance. Except for the specific representations expressly made by the Company
in this Agreement, the Participant specifically disclaims that the Participant is relying upon or has relied upon any communications,
promises, statement, inducements or representation(s) that may have been made, oral or written regarding the subject matter of this
Agreement. The Participant represents that the Participant relied solely and only on the Participant’s own judgment in making the
decision to enter into this Agreement.
