On May 24, 2007, Christopher and Banks Corporation (the Company) entered into an employment agreement with Andrew K. Moller, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, which agreement continues until February 28, 2009 unless earlier terminated as provided in the agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Mr. Mollers base salary beginning March 1, 2007 is $330,000 and is subject to review at least annually. If Mr. Mollers employment is terminated by the Company without cause, Mr. Moller is entitled to his base salary for the longer of (i) the remaining term of the employment agreement or (ii) twelve months from notice of termination, less any cash compensation earned by Mr. Moller during the period. If within twelve months after a change of control Mr. Mollers employment is terminated without cause, or Mr. Moller terminates his employment for good reason, Mr. Moller will be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to one year of his then current base salary and continued payment of his base salary for the longer of (i) the remaining term of the employment agreement or (ii) twelve months from notice of termination, less any cash compensation earned by Mr. Moller during the period. In the event of a change of control, Mr. Mollers employment agreement also provides that all unvested stock options and restricted stock held by Mr. Moller shall immediately vest. During employment with the Company and for one year following termination of such employment, Mr. Moller has agreed that he will not compete with us or solicit any of our employees, customers or contractors for employment or business purposes.
This agreement replaces and supersedes the employment agreement dated as of March 1, 2004 between the Company and Mr. Moller.
