On August 15, 2019, Cheniere Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) and Jack A. Fusco, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the existing employment agreement between the Company and Mr. Fusco (the “Employment Agreement”).
The Amendment extended the term of Mr. Fusco’s Employment Agreement from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2022, and provided that the term may be extended by mutual agreement. The Amendment also revised the treatment of Mr. Fusco’s long-term incentive awards in the event that Mr. Fusco remains employed through the end of the term to provide that, if at the time that Mr. Fusco’s relationship with the Company concludes none of the conditions constituting “cause” under the Employment Agreement exist, then any outstanding long-term incentive awards will continue to vest in accordance with their terms. Additionally, the scope of Mr. Fusco’s
non-compete
in the Employment Agreement was updated to reflect the Company’s current businesses and the Amendment clarified Mr. Fusco’s severance benefits under the Employment Agreement and the Company’s Amended and Restated Key Executive Severance Plan.
A copy of the Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment.
