Remuneration

	3.	 	The CFO’s remuneration will be US$155,000.00 per annum, payable monthly in arrears (the “Base

	6.	 	As of January 1st each year, the CFO’s Base Salary will be reviewed by the Chief
Executive Officer (“CEO”) who may grant an increase but shall not reduce the CFO’s Base Salary
below the level set out in Clause 3 hereof.
	 
	7.	 	If, within 90 days of the 6th day of May 2006 in respect of the year 2006, and by
not later than March 31st in each calendar year commencing with the year 2007, the
CFO and the CEO have agreed to Performance Goals for that calendar year, and if such
Performance Goals are met for that year, then the Company shall pay to the CFO a Performance
Bonus for that year in an amount not less than 25% of the sum of (i) the CFO’s Base Salary for
that calendar year as adjusted by Clause 6 and (ii) an amount equal to in value to the
compensation to which the CFO is entitled (in ordinary shares or cash) under clause 8 for that
calendar year. The Board of Directors, in its sole and absolute discretion may determine to
pay a larger Performance Bonus. In any calendar year that all of the Performance Goals are
not met, the Board of Directors, in its sole and absolute discretion, may, but shall not be
obligated to, pay the CFO a Performance Bonus in an amount determined by the Board of
Directors. The Performance Bonus shall be paid entirely in cash.
	 
	 	 	The Performance Bonus, if any, calculated as aforesaid for a calendar year shall be paid not

US$40,000. Each such tranche of shares will be registered in the CFO’s name quarterly in
increments of 12.5% over respective two year periods beginning on the date hereof and on each
anniversary of that date. If the stockholders of the Company do not approve the issuance of
ordinary shares for the purposes of this clause by the date of the Company’s Annual General
Meeting in 2007 or if no such meeting is held in 2007, then, and until such time (if at all)
as the stockholders approve the issuance of ordinary shares for the purposes of this clause,
the Company will pay in cash to the CFO US$40,000 for each year of the CFO’s employment and
pro rata for part of a year (each such payment to be made in arrear on an anniversary of the
date hereof or on the date on which he leaves the Company’s employment).
	 
	 	 	For purposes of this clause, the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the ordinary shares on the principal market on which such ordinary shares are traded for the five
business days prior to 3rd June 2006 and each subsequent anniversary of that date shall
respectively be used to determine the number of ordinary shares equivalent in value to
US$40,000.
	 
	9.	 	During the first calendar year of this Agreement, the Company will provide the CFO with a
monthly automobile expense allowance of US$700. This monthly automobile
allowance will increase on January 1 of each subsequent calendar year by US$50 per month (or
US$600 per year) during the term of this Agreement.

unvested ordinary shares issuable to the CFO pursuant to Clause 8 shall vest immediately.
	 
	 	 	If there is a Change of Control of the Company, then the CFO, at his option, may terminate
this Agreement upon one-hundred and twenty (120) days’ prior written notice (“Notice
Period”) to the Company after the Change in Control. In such event, the Company shall pay
the CFO on the last business day of the Notice Period in cash in one lump sum an amount

paragraph is subject to modification if required by the final regulations to be issued under
Section 409A of the United States Internal Revenue Code.

-7-

place if: (i) any person, including a “group” as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, publicly announces that such person or group
has become the beneficial owner of more than 50% of the combined voting power (“Controlling
Voting Power”) of the then outstanding securities of the Company that may be cast for the
election of directors of the Company and (ii) the persons who were directors of the Company
before such event shall cease to constitute a majority of the Board of Directors of the
Company, or any successor to the Company, as the direct or indirect result of any person or
group acquiring Controlling Voting Power.

Extension

	23.	 	On or before August 31st of each year during the Term of this Agreement (or any
extension thereof), the CEO shall determine whether to extend the Term of this Agreement, and
if the CEO so determines, the term of this Agreement shall be extended such that the term
shall continue for two (2) years from January 1st of the next following year.
	 
	 	 	In the event that the CEO determines not to extend the Agreement in any year, the Term of
this Agreement shall expire on December 31st of that year and the Company, on
that latter date, shall pay to the CFO, in cash, a severance payment equal to the CFO’s Base
Salary for that year as adjusted by Clause 6.

Notices

	24.	 	Any notice to be served under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be deemed to be
duly served if it is handed personally to the Secretary of the Company or to the CFO as the
case may be, or if it is sent by registered post to the address at the head of this Agreement.
A notice sent by post shall be deemed to be served on the third day following the date on
which it was posted.

Previous Agreements Superseded

	25.	 	This Agreement supersedes all prior contracts and understandings between the parties save
that benefits earned or accrued under prior contracts shall not be extinguished or affected.

Waiver

	26.	 	No change or attempted waiver of any of the provisions hereof shall be binding unless in
writing and signed by the party against whom it is sought to be enforced.

Severability of Provisions

be effective and valid. If any provision of this Agreement or the

-8-

 

	 	 	application of it is prohibited or is held to be invalid, that prohibition or invalidity
will not affect any other provision, or the application of any other provision which can
be given effect without the invalid provision or prohibited application and, to this end,
the provisions of this Agreement are declared to be severable.

Headings

	28.	 	The headings herein are included for convenience only and have no legal effect.

Applicable Law and Jurisdiction

	29.	 	This Agreement shall be construed and the legal relations between the parties determined in

Exhibit 10.2

AMENDMENT TO THE

OXFORD INDUSTRIES, INC.

LONG-TERM STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

April 2, 2007

          WHEREAS, Oxford Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) adopted the Oxford Industries, Inc.
Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, supplemented and restated as of October 10, 2006, the
“Plan”);

          WHEREAS, capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
respective meanings ascribed to them in the Plan; and

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to amend the Plan, as of the date first set forth above, to
specify that the Committee shall make or provide for certain adjustments in Shares covered by
outstanding Awards and/or certain other adjustments that are equitably required in order to prevent
dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants that otherwise would result from an equity
restructuring (as contemplated pursuant to the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder).

     NOW, THEREFORE, Section 10 of the Plan shall be, and it hereby is, amended and restated to
read in its entirety as follows:

	 	 	“Adjustments. The Committee shall make or provide for such adjustments in the (a)
number of Shares covered by outstanding Options, Stock Appreciation Rights,
Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units granted hereunder, (b) prices per share
applicable to such Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, and (c) kind of Shares
covered thereby, as the Committee in its sole discretion may in good faith determine
to be equitably required in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights
of Participants that otherwise would result from (x) any stock dividend, stock
split, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company, (y)
any merger, consolidation, spin-off, spin-out, split-off, split-up, reorganization,
or partial or complete liquidation or other distribution of assets (other than a
normal cash dividend), or (z) any other event which would constitute an equity
restructuring (as contemplated pursuant to the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder). Without limiting the foregoing, the Committee may make or provide for
such adjustments in the (a) number of Shares covered by outstanding Options, Stock
Appreciation Rights, Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units granted hereunder,
(b) prices per share applicable to such Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, and
(c) kind of Shares covered thereby, as the Committee in its sole discretion may in
good faith determine to be equitably required in order to prevent dilution or
enlargement of the rights of Participants that otherwise would result from (x) any
combination or exchange of Shares, (y) any issuance of rights or warrants to
purchase securities or (z) any other corporate transaction or event having an effect
similar to any of the foregoing. Moreover, in the event of any such transaction or
event, the Committee may provide in substitution for any or all outstanding Awards
under this Plan such alternative consideration as it may in good faith determine to
be equitable under the circumstances and may require in connection therewith the
surrender of all Awards so replaced. The Committee may also make or provide for such
adjustments in the number of Shares specified in Section 3 of this Plan as the
Committee in its sole discretion may in good faith determine to be appropriate in
order to reflect any transaction or event described in this
Section 10.”

 

 

	 	 	Except as specifically amended herein, the terms of the Plan shall remain in full force and
effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Amendment to the Plan to be executed as of the date
first set forth above.
