FAQ

AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.

What executive retention agreement did Resources Connection (RGP) approve?
Resources Connection approved a retention agreement with executive Jennifer Ryu that grants three cash payments of $125,000 each. These are scheduled for July 31, 2026, January 31, 2028, and January 31, 2029, and require her continued employment through each respective payment date.

How much will Jennifer Ryu receive under the Resources Connection retention agreement?
The agreement provides three separate retention payments of $125,000 each to Jennifer Ryu. Payments are scheduled for July 31, 2026, January 31, 2028, and January 31, 2029. Each payment is contingent on her remaining employed by Resources Connection through the applicable payment date.

What happens to Jennifer Ryu’s retention payments if she is terminated without cause at RGP?
If Resources Connection terminates Jennifer Ryu’s employment without cause and she provides a general release of claims, she becomes entitled to the remaining unpaid retention payments. This accelerates the balance of the scheduled $125,000 installments that would otherwise be paid on future specified dates.

How does a Change in Control affect Jennifer Ryu’s retention payments at Resources Connection?
If a Change in Control Event occurs under Resources Connection’s 2020 Performance Incentive Plan, Jennifer Ryu becomes entitled to any remaining unpaid retention payments. This means the balance of the $125,000 installments would be payable instead of continuing solely on the original scheduled dates.

Does the Resources Connection retention agreement include an excise tax gross-up for Jennifer Ryu?
The agreement does not provide an excise tax gross-up. Instead, if her benefits trigger Section 4999 excise taxes, she will either receive the full benefits or have them reduced, depending on which alternative yields a higher net after-tax benefit to her.

Item 5.02    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On February 6, 2026, Resources Connection, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Retention Agreement with Jennifer Ryu (the “Retention Agreement”) in order to support leadership continuity and the ongoing success of the Company. The Retention Agreement provides for a retention payment of $125,000 to be paid to Ms. Ryu on each of July 31, 2026, January 31, 2028 and January 31, 2029, subject to Ms. Ryu’s continued employment by the Company through the applicable payment date. If Ms. Ryu’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (as such term is defined in the Employment Agreement between Ms. Ryu and the Company), subject to Ms. Ryu providing a general release of claims in favor of the Company, Ms. Ryu will be entitled to receive the remaining unpaid portion of the retention payments. In addition, if a Change in Control Event occurs (as such term is defined in the Company’s 2020 Performance Incentive Plan), Ms. Ryu will be entitled to receive the remaining unpaid portion of the retention payments. The Retention Agreement provides that, should benefits payable to Ms. Ryu trigger excise taxes under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, Ms. Ryu will either be entitled to the full amount of her benefits or, if a cut-back in the benefits would result in greater net (after-tax) benefit to Ms. Ryu, the benefits will be cut-back to the extent necessary to avoid such excise taxes. The Retention Agreement does not provide for a Company tax “gross-up” payment to make Ms. Ryu whole for any such taxes.
The foregoing summary of the Retention Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Retention Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated in this Item 5.02 by reference.
