Dear Matt,

We are delighted to extend to you this offer of employment to be the CEO of Korn Ferry International’s (“Korn Ferry” or the “firm”) Leadership and Talent Consulting business unit (“LTC”). The purpose of this offer letter (referred to herein as this “Offer Letter”) is to confirm the terms of your employment, including your responsibilities, reporting relationships, compensation, employee benefits, and professional requirements. Your employment will begin on a date mutually agreed upon by you and Korn Ferry (“Start Date”).

Base Salary

Your monthly base salary will be $37,500.00, payable in semi-monthly increments.

Annual Incentive Award

You will be eligible for an annual incentive award of up to $1,550,000 (cash and LTIP) with a target annual incentive award of $850,000 (cash and LTIP). This award will be based on an appraisal of your achievements in meeting goals established by the Compensation and Personnel Committee of the Board of Directors of Korn Ferry (“Compensation Committee”) and such other factors as may be determined in the discretion of the Compensation Committee.

In connection with Korn Ferry’s fiscal year 2016 (May 1, 2015- April 30, 2016), you will be guaranteed a minimum incentive award of $750,000; which shall be paid to you in cash, as an advance, in equal semi-monthly payments during the fiscal year. Any annual incentive award for Korn Ferry’s fiscal year 2016 earned in excess of this guaranteed minimum award will be paid at such time and in such manner as determined by the Compensation Committee. Following fiscal year 2016, you will not have any guaranteed minimum incentive award amount or be entitled to any further advance incentive award payments.

In recognition of amounts you will forfeit from your previous employer in order to commence employment with Korn Ferry, you shall be entitled to receive the following awards:

30 days following the termination of your employment either by you voluntarily without Good Reason (as defined below) or by Korn Ferry for “Cause” prior to the first anniversary of the Start Date, (x) in an amount equal to 75% of the gross amount thereof within 30 days following the termination of your employment either by you voluntarily without Good Reason or by Korn Ferry for “Cause” on or after the first anniversary of the Start Date and prior to the second anniversary of the Start Date, (y) in an amount equal to 50% of the gross amount thereof within 30 days following the termination of your employment either by you voluntarily without Good Reason or by Korn Ferry for “Cause” on or after the second anniversary of the Start Date and prior to the third anniversary of the Start Date; and (z) in an amount equal to 25% of the gross amount thereof within 30 days following the termination of your employment either by you voluntarily without Good Reason or by Korn Ferry for “Cause” on or after the third anniversary of the Start Date and prior to the fourth anniversary of the Start Date. For the avoidance of doubt, should your employment with Korn Ferry terminate after the fourth anniversary of your start date you shall not be obligated to repay any amount of the lump sum cash award of $700,000 above;

(2) a one-time restricted stock unit award, subject to the approval by the Compensation Committee, in respect of a number of shares having a value on the grant date of the award (as determined by the Compensation Committee) equal to one million four hundred thousand dollars ($1,400,000). Such restricted stock unit award will vest in four equal annual installments on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th anniversaries of the date of the grant thereof, subject to your continuous active full-time employment with Korn Ferry through each vesting date and the terms and conditions of Korn Ferry’s standard form of restricted stock unit award agreement; and

(3) a one-time award of restricted stock units subject to performance-based vesting criteria (“Performance Shares”), covering a number of shares with a value on the grant date of the award (as determined by the Compensation Committee) of one million dollars ($1,000,000), which Performance Shares will be earned at the end of, and based on the firm’s performance during, a performance period of 3 years starting with Korn Ferry’s fiscal year 2016 (the “Performance Period”) and subject to your continuous employment with Korn Ferry through the vesting date as set forth in Korn Ferry’s standard form of performance share award agreement.

The date of grant of these awards will be the later of the date you commence full-time active employment with Korn Ferry or the date the awards are approved by the Compensation Committee. All other terms of the awards shall be determined by the Compensation Committee and consistent with Korn Ferry’s equity compensation plan and applicable forms of award agreement.

“At will” Employment and Termination of Employment

Your employment with Korn Ferry will be an employment “at will” and this arrangement may be altered only in writing by the CEO of Korn Ferry.

In the event that your employment with Korn Ferry is terminated (i) by Korn Ferry for any reason other than Cause (as defined below) and not due to your death or Disability or (ii) by you for Good Reason, and such termination of employment occurs prior to or more than 12 months after the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined below), then Korn Ferry will pay to you your Accrued Compensation (as defined below), payable within 30 days after your termination (with the payment date during such 30 day period to be determined by Korn Ferry in its sole discretion), and a pro rata portion of the annual cash incentive award you would have received for the fiscal year in which your employment terminates (based on Korn Ferry’s actual performance over the entire year and the number of days of your actual service to Korn Ferry during such fiscal year), which pro rata portion will be payable to you at the same time bonuses are paid to executives generally for the applicable fiscal year, and

(1) Korn Ferry will pay to you the amount in cash equal, in the aggregate, to twelve (12) months of your then current annual base salary, to be paid in equal monthly installments over a period of twelve (12) months after the date your employment terminates;

(2) for up to eighteen (18) months after such termination, to the extent you and/or your covered dependent(s) continue to participate in Korn Ferry’s group health plan(s) pursuant to COBRA after your termination of employment and to the extent permitted by applicable law, Korn Ferry will provide reimbursement of COBRA coverage premiums paid by you and your covered dependent(s) so that you and your covered dependent(s) enjoy coverage at the same benefit level and to the same extent and for the same effective contribution, if any, as participation is available to other executive officers of Korn Ferry;

(3) outstanding equity incentive awards (including the one-time time vesting restricted stock unit award mentioned above) held by you (other than any performance shares) and all of your benefits under the Executive Capital Accumulation Plan, if any, at the time of your termination that would have vested in the twelve (12) months following the date your employment terminates (in each case, as if such incentives and benefits permitted proportionate vesting in monthly increments rather than any longer increment) will become fully vested as of the date your employment terminates and, to the extent applicable, shall remain exercisable until the date that is the earlier of (x) two (2) years after the date your employment terminates and (y) its originally scheduled expiration date; and

(4) you shall receive a number of performance shares and/or a payout under any long-term performance-based cash incentive program (as applicable), payable no later than the March 15 of the year following the calendar year in which the applicable performance period ends, equal to the product of (A) the performance shares and/or cash award that would have been earned if you had served Korn Ferry for the entirety of any open performance period at the time of your termination of employment based upon Korn Ferry’s actual performance during such period, and (B) a fraction, (x) the numerator of which fraction shall be the sum of (i) the number of days of your employment during any such performance period and (ii) 365 (provided that the numerator shall not exceed the number of days in the applicable performance period) and (y) the denominator of which fraction shall be the number of days in the applicable performance period (as determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee).

In addition, if your employment with Korn Ferry is terminated (i) by Korn Ferry for any reason other than Cause and not due to your death or Disability or (ii) by you for Good Reason, and such termination of employment occurs within 12 months after the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined on Schedule A hereto), then you will be entitled to the same severance benefits as described above, except that the aggregate payment in clause (1) above shall be in the amount equal to twelve (12) months of your then current annual base salary plus your full target annual incentive award (and these severance payments will be made in the same form and at such time as set forth in this section in paragraph (1) above), and you will be entitled to vesting of 100% of your outstanding equity incentive awards and all benefits under the Executive Capital Accumulation Plan, if any, provided that with respect to performance-based awards such vesting will be based on actual performance through the date of the Change in Control.

In the event that your employment is terminated by Korn Ferry for Cause, by you without Good Reason or as a result of your death or Disability, you will not be entitled to the severance compensation described above, but instead will only be entitled to payment of the Accrued Compensation through the date your employment terminates, payable within 30 days after your termination (with the payment date during such 30 day period to be determined by Korn Ferry in its sole discretion).

Notwithstanding anything in this letter to the contrary, other than the payment of the Accrued Compensation through the date of termination of your employment, you shall not be entitled to any severance payments or benefits hereunder (i) unless and until you execute and deliver to Korn Ferry, within twenty-one (21) days of the date of termination of your employment, a unilateral general release of all known and unknown claims against Korn Ferry and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates in a form acceptable to Korn Ferry, and such release becomes fully effective and irrevocable under applicable law, and (ii) unless you are, and continue to be, in compliance with the terms set forth below under the headings “Business Information and Non-Competition” and “Assignment of Inventions”. In addition, promptly following any termination of your employment (other than by reason of your death), you will deliver to Korn Ferry reasonably satisfactory written evidence of your resignation from all positions that you may then hold as an employee or officer of Korn Ferry or any affiliate.

For purposes of this letter:

“Accrued Compensation” means, as of any date, the amount of any unpaid base salary earned by you through the date of the termination of your employment and any annual cash incentive award earned by you, but not yet paid, for the most recently completed fiscal year prior to the termination of your employment.

“Cause” shall mean (a) conviction of any felony or other crime involving fraud, dishonesty or acts of moral turpitude or pleading guilty or nolo contendere to such charges, (b) reckless or willful behavior or conduct that causes or is reasonably likely to cause Korn Ferry material harm or injury or exposes or is reasonably likely to expose Korn Ferry to any material civil, criminal

or administrative liability, (c) any material misrepresentation or false statement made by you in any application for employment, employment history, resume or other document submitted to Korn Ferry, either before, during or after employment, (d) any material violation of Korn Ferry’s material written policies or procedures including those described under Professional Requirements below, or (e) any of your representations or warranties set forth in the third paragraph under Professional Requirements below are, or become, untrue or inaccurate.

“Disability” shall mean you are unable, by reason of mental or physical disability, incapacity or illness, to perform substantially all of your duties and obligations hereunder, which condition lasts for a continuous period in excess of three (3) months, or an aggregate period in excess of four (4) months in any one (1) calendar year.

You shall be deemed to have “Good Reason” to terminate your employment hereunder if, without your prior written consent, (A) Korn Ferry materially reduces your duties or responsibilities as Chief Executive Officer, LTC; (B) Korn Ferry materially reduces your then current base salary or target annual incentive award as set forth herein (in each case, other than as part of an across-the-board reduction applicable to all “named executive officers” of Korn Ferry (as defined under Item 402 of Regulation S-K and to the extent employed by Korn Ferry at that time)); or (C) Korn Ferry materially breaches a material term of this letter agreement. Prior to terminating for Good Reason, you are required to provide Korn Ferry with 30 days advance written notice of your intention to terminate employment for Good Reason, and Korn Ferry shall be permitted to cure any events giving rise to such Good Reason that are subject to being cured during such 30 day period, after which, if such event remains uncured, your employment must terminate within 30 days.

Assignment of Inventions

Korn Ferry shall be the sole and exclusive owner and the sole author of all of the results and proceeds of your efforts, including, but not limited to, all ideas or suggestions, whether or not in writing, which are created, suggested and/or obtained by you in the course and scope of your employment with Korn Ferry (collectively, the “Work”), from the moment of their creation and at every stage of their development, production, or completion. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that any element(s) of the Work are not deemed to be a “work made for hire” for Korn Ferry, you hereby irrevocably and exclusively assign to Korn Ferry (or if any applicable law prohibits or limits such assignment, you hereby exclusively and irrevocably license to Korn Ferry) all right, title and interest in and to such element(s) (including all copyrights therein and thereto and all renewals and extensions thereof), and all rights to exploit the same throughout the world, in perpetuity (but in any event for not less than the period of copyright and any renewals and extensions thereof), in any and all media, whether now or hereafter known or devised. You hereby grant to Korn Ferry the right to change, add to, take from, translate, reformat and/or reprocess the Work in any manner Korn Ferry may in its sole discretion determine. To the fullest extent allowable under any applicable law, you hereby irrevocably waive or assign to Korn Ferry, your so-called “moral rights” or “droit moral.” You agree to execute and deliver to Korn Ferry such assignments, certificates of engagement or other instruments as Korn Ferry may reasonably require from time to time to evidence Korn Ferry’s ownership of the Work.

Section 409A Compliance

Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision herein, to the extent Korn Ferry determines in good faith that (a) one or more of the payments or benefits received or to be received by you pursuant hereunder in connection with your termination of employment would constitute deferred compensation subject to the rules of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A


Mr. Matthew P. Reilly

May 4, 2015

Page 8

 

(“Section 409A”) and not exempt from Section 409A, and (b) that you are a “specified employee” under Section 409A, then only to the extent required to avoid your incurrence of any additional tax or interest under Section 409A, such payment or benefit will be delayed until the earlier of your death or the date which is six (6) months after your “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each right to receive payment hereunder shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, any installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the terms of this letter shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A the regulations promulgated thereunder so as not to subject you to the payment of any tax penalty or interest which may be imposed by Section 409A of the Code and Korn Ferry shall have no right to accelerate or make any payment hereunder except to the extent such action would not subject you to the payment of any tax penalty or interest under Section 409A. If, under the terms of this Agreement, it is possible for a payment that is subject to Section 409A to be made in two separate taxable years, payment shall be made in the later taxable year.

To the extent that any reimbursements pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise are taxable to you, any reimbursement payment due to you shall be paid to you on or before the last calendar day of your taxable year following the taxable year in which the related expense was incurred; provided, that, you have provided Korn Ferry written documentation of such expenses in a timely fashion and such expenses otherwise satisfy Korn Ferry’s Company’s expense reimbursement policies. Reimbursements pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the amount of such reimbursements that you receive in one taxable year shall not affect the amount of such reimbursements that you receive in any other taxable year.

Section 280G

Anything in this letter to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment, benefit or distribution made or provided by Korn Ferry or its affiliated companies to you or for your benefit (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms hereof or otherwise) (a “Payment”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or interest or penalties with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then such Payments shall either (a) be delivered in full, or (b) subject to and in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that no portion thereof will be subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state or local income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax, results in your receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be subject to the Excise Tax. In the event that any Payments are to be reduced pursuant to this paragraph, then the reduction shall be applied as follows: (i) first, on a pro rata basis to your cash severance payments and your pro rata annual cash incentive award payment for the year of termination, (ii) second, on a pro rata basis to your equity incentive awards and (iii) third, to your benefits under the Executive Capital Accumulation Plan, if any.
