Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On June 26, 2020, the shareholders of Tailored Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) adopted the Company’s 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

In addition, on June 26, 2020, the Board of Directors decided to delay the grant of its annual equity retainer, consistent with the Company’s decision to delay its 2020 long-term incentive grants to employees due to the impacts of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19.

 

Item 5.04 Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant’s Employee Benefit Plans.

 

On June 25, 2020, the Tailored Brands 401(k) Committee (the “Committee”) determined as part of its regular review of investment options available under the Tailored Brands 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”) that, based on market conditions, risks and trends, investments in the Company’s common stock (“Employer Stock”) be suspended to new investments, including both participant contributions and transfers, effective as of July 2, 2020. As a result of this action by the Committee, Plan participants’ contributions to Employer Stock will be directed instead to the participant’s age appropriate Vanguard Institutional Target Retirement Fund provided under the Plan until participants direct such contributions into another investment fund.

 

On July 1, 2020, the Company sent the notice required by Rule 104 of Regulation BTR to its directors and executive officers informing them of a blackout period concerning common stock of the Company, including stock trades within the Plan, beginning on July 2, 2020. The Committee has not determined when or if the Employer Stock will be able to accept any new contributions or transfers from other investment funds under the Plan and is exploring hiring an independent fiduciary to evaluate future inclusion of Employer Stock as an investment option under the Plan; therefore, the ending date for the blackout period is undeterminable at this time. Advance notice of the blackout period was not possible due to the quickly changing economic conditions resulting from COVID-19.

 

A copy of the blackout notice transmitted to the directors and executive officers of the Company is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
