(e) Approval of 2013 Directors' Equity Incentive Plan and New Form of Award Agreement
On June 27, 2013 at Christopher & Banks Corporation's (the "Company") Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting"), the stockholders of the Company approved the Company's 2013 Directors' Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which provides for the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock to the Company's non-employee directors ("Non-Employee Directors").
In connection with the adoption of the Plan and the election of directors at the Annual Meeting, each of the seven Non-Employee Directors were issued, effective the close of business on June 27, 2013, a restricted stock award of 10,401 shares of the Company's common stock, representing approximately $70,000 on the date of grant (the "Awards") and subject to forfeiture restrictions.
Each of the Awards is to be evidenced by a restricted stock agreement (the "Award Agreement") to be entered into by the Company and by the Non-Employee Director. The Award Agreement provides that the forfeiture restrictions will lapse as to all of the restricted shares on June 27, 2014 or, if earlier, the date of the Company's 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
A copy of the Plan is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. A more detailed description of the Plan can be found in the Company's Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 14, 2013.
