Dear Ms. Riley:

 

The purpose of this letter agreement is to memorialize our mutual agreement that you resigned from your position as the Executive Vice President, Finance and Administration of The Children’s Place Retail Stores, Inc. (the “Company”) and from all other positions that you hold with the Company and its subsidiaries, effective February 10, 2011.  All terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Employment Agreement between you and the Company, dated as of February 4, 2007, and amended December 31, 2008 (the “Employment Agreement”).

 

In addition, your employment with the Company and its subsidiaries shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the date the Company delivers to you the performance shares granted to you pursuant to the Amended and Restated Performance Stock Award Agreement by and between the Company and you, entered into on January 21, 2008, effective December 10, 2007 (the “Performance Shares”), and (ii) March 30, 2011 (whichever of such dates is earlier, the “Separation Date”), and, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall you be employed by the Company on March 31, 2011.  During the period from February 10, 2011 and ending on the Separation Date:

 

·         you will not be required to report to work or be permitted to perform any services (either from the office or a remote location) for the Company or any of its subsidiaries, except as specifically requested by the Company;

 

·         you shall have no authority to act on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and shall not (i) hold yourself out as having such authority, (ii) enter into any agreement or incur any obligations on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) commit the Company or any of its subsidiaries in any manner or (iv) otherwise act in an executive or other decision-making capacity with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries;

 

·         you agree to work with the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “CEO”) as requested to transition your responsibilities to other employees of the Company as designated by the CEO; and

 

·         you will (i) remain on the Company’s payroll and continue to be paid your base salary at the rate in effect immediately prior to February 10, 2011 in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices, and (ii) be entitled to participate in the Company’s then-current benefit plans and programs to the extent and on the same basis that you participated in such plans and programs immediately prior to February 10, 2011 (subject to any changes to any such plans that are generally applicable to all employees).

 

 

In consideration of the foregoing, and in light of the fact that the Company and you do not reasonably expect that you will perform services after February 10, 2011 at a level in excess of 20% of the level of services you have performed over the previous 36 months, for purposes of determining your rights under the Employment Agreement and Letter Agreement, the Company will treat your employment as having been terminated by the Company without Cause pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Employment Agreement, with the effect that you will be entitled to receive one million dollars ($1,000,000) as contemplated in that certain letter agreement between you and the Company dated February 12, 2010 (the “Letter Agreement”) payable as contemplated in the Letter Agreement, in part as salary continuation over a 12 month period commencing on the effectiveness of the Release (as defined below) with a final lump at the time the Performance Bonus in respect of the Company’s 2011 fiscal year would otherwise be payable to you under the Company’s Annual Management Incentive Bonus Plan (the “Bonus Plan”), it being understood that such payment and any other payments or compensation described in this letter agreement will be subject to (i) the terms and provisions of the Employment Agreement (including, but not limited to, deductions for applicable withholding taxes) and the Letter Agreement, (ii) your execution of the release of claims substantially in the form attached to the Employment Agreement as Exhibit B (the “Release”) within 21 days after February 10, 2011, and (iii) your continued compliance with the obligations in Section 7 of the Employment Agreement and in this letter agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the amounts payable to you on account of the termination treatment described in the preceding sentence shall commence on the first business day of the seventh calendar month following February 10, 2011; provided, that, any portion of such payments that, if not for the delay provided herein, would have been payable during the period commencing on February 10, 2011 and ending on the first business day of the seventh calendar month following February 10, 2011 shall be paid in a lump sum (together with interest on such amount during the period of such restriction at a rate, per annum, equal to the applicable federal short-term rate (compounded monthly) in effect under Section 1274(d) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) on February 10, 2011).  For the avoidance of doubt, the payments described in this paragraph are in addition to any amounts payable pursuant to the preceding paragraphs of this letter agreement, including the additional base salary continuation contemplated in the immediately preceding paragraph.

 

You and the Company agree that you shall be entitled to receive the Performance Bonus in respect of the Company’s 2010 fiscal year on the same date as bonuses are payable under the Bonus Plan to other executives of the Company, provided, that the amount of such Performance Bonus shall be determined in accordance with the terms of the Bonus Plan and shall depend on the operating income of the Company as provided therein.

 

You shall have such rights in respect of your equity awards as provided in the plan and the award agreement pursuant to which such awards were granted or in any other written agreement or arrangement between you and the Company.  You acknowledge and agree that all written agreements or arrangements between you and the Company that address your rights in respect of your equity awards, as referred to in the preceding sentence, are set forth on Schedule A to this letter agreement.  You and the Company agree that the Performance Shares shall be delivered to you based on the same level of attainment of applicable performance criteria as the Company applies to determine the delivery of performance shares in respect of the applicable performance period to the other senior executives of the Company.

 

2

 

Your rights under any employee benefit plans in which you participate shall be determined by the terms of the applicable plans, and you will be entitled to any other rights as may be provided by any other written agreement or arrangement with the Company in respect of a termination of your employment approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and applicable in the prevailing circumstances.  You acknowledge and agree that all other written agreements or arrangements with the Company in respect of a termination of your employment, as referred to in the preceding sentence, are set forth on Schedule B to this letter agreement.

 

You acknowledge that you are not entitled to any benefit or compensation following the Separation Date except as set forth in this letter agreement, notwithstanding any severance plan or policy that may otherwise apply to Company employees.

 

You acknowledge that you remain subject to your continuing obligations under the Employment Agreement, including without limitation the provisions of Section 7 thereof (which includes covenants of non-competition, non-solicitation and non-hiring; covenants relating to non-disclosure of confidential information, return of property, intellectual property rights and non-disparagement, and cooperation, which continue to apply at all times following termination of your employment).  You specifically acknowledge that you will comply with your obligations under Section 7.06 of the Employment Agreement not to make or authorize any public statement disparaging the Company in its business interests and affairs, and the Company acknowledges that the Company will comply with its obligations under Section 7.06 of the Employment Agreement.  You further agree that you will not, at any time, make or authorize, whether publicly or not, any statement (orally or in writing) that disparages the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective employees, officers, directors or agents in such manner.  In consideration of the consideration in this letter agreement, you will advise and cooperate with the Company and its subsidiaries, at their request, about disputes with third parties as to which you have knowledge; advise and cooperate with the Company and its independent public accountants, at their request, (i) in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements that cover all periods through and including February 10, 2011 and (ii) in all financial and accounting matters generally; advise and cooperate with the Company and its subsidiaries, at their request, in connection with all arbitrations, mediations or litigations relating to the activities Company and its subsidiaries during the period of your employment through February 10, 2011, including, without limitation, to give depositions and to be a witness at trial, help in the preparation of any legal documentation and providing affidavits and any advice or support that the Company and its subsidiaries may reasonably request of you.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, nothing shall prevent you from providing factual information to the Company or to the Company’s independent public accountants in response to any direct inquiry or direct request for information from the Company or the Company’s independent public accountants.  The provisions of the Employment Agreement relating to enforcement of the covenants in Section 7 of the Employment Agreement shall continue to apply to such covenants and shall also apply to the covenants in this paragraph. Nothing in this letter agreement is intended to alter in any way any rights the Company has under the Employment Agreement.

 

Except insofar as explicit reference is made herein to other agreements or documents, this letter agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and you with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreement between you and the Company relating to the subject matter hereof.
