Change in Directors or Principal Officers, Financial Statements and Exh
On December 3, 2012, Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a change of control agreement with each of Jon Thompson, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Mark Angus, the Company's Senior Vice President, and Shannon Greene, the Company's Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer (each an "Executive"). The change of control agreements are effective until 24 months following a change of control of the Company (as defined in the change of control agreement). Under the terms of the change of control agreements, if the applicable Executive's employment with the Company is terminated during the term of the agreement following or during a specified period prior to (and in contemplation of) a change of control, then the Executive will be entitled to severance benefits described in the change of control agreement. The Executive will not be entitled to the severance benefits, however, if the Executive's employment is terminated (a) because of the Executive's death, (b) by the Company for cause or as a result of the Executive's disability, or (c) by the Executive without good reason, in each case as specified in the change of control agreement. If an Executive becomes entitled to severance benefits under the applicable change of control agreement, then the Executive will receive a lump sum cash payment equal to three times the Executive's then current annual salary and a continuation of the Executive's then current life, dental, vision, health and long-term disability coverage for three year period, or until the Executive becomes covered by a subsequent employer. The change of control agreements also contain a "best net" tax provision, which provides that if the severance payments trigger federal excise taxes, then such severance payments will be reduced if doing so provides the Executive with a greater after-tax benefit.
The foregoing summary of the change of control agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of the agreements, a form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
10.1 Form of Change of Control Agreement between the Company and each of Jon Thompson, Mark Angus and Shannon Greene, each effective as of December 3, 2012.
