As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 3, 2020 by Shoe Carnival, Inc. (the “Company”), as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the annual base salaries of each of the Company’s named executive officers and certain other members of the Company’s senior management team were temporarily reduced by 20% starting on April 5, 2020 and effective until at least 50% of the Company’s store locations were re-opened. The cash retainer fees paid to the Company’s non-employee directors were temporarily reduced by 20% during that same time period.

Effective as of May 5, 2020, the Company has re-opened over 50% of its store locations. As a result, the temporary reductions in the annual base salaries of the Company’s named executive officers and other members of the Company’s senior management team and the temporary reductions in the cash retainer fees paid to the Company’s non-employee directors are no longer in effect.
