Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 29, 2019, Flexsteel Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale and Joint Escrow Instructions dated August 26, 2019 (the “Purchase Agreement”) to sell the Riverside property located at 7227 Central Avenue, Riverside, California for $20,500,000 to Greenlaw Acquisitions, LLC.  There is a $500,000 non-refundable deposit placed in escrow and the closing is scheduled for September 26, 2019.  The property is being sold “As-Is, Where-Is”.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.02
Departure of Director or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On August 30, 2019, pursuant to the request of Jerald K. Dittmer, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee and Mr.  Dittmer agreed to amend his Employment Agreement, dated December 17, 2018 (“Agreement”).  Under the Agreement, the fiscal 2019 Cash Incentive was guaranteed at target level (“Bonus”).  The guaranteed Bonus is calculated by taking Mr. Dittmer’s annual salary of $700,000 multiplied by his annual Cash Incentive Plan target of 115% and pro-rating it for the 50% time he served during the fiscal year.  The Bonus value equates to $402,500.

The agreed upon amendment is reflected in the First Amendment to Executive Employment Agreement dated effective August 30, 2019 (the “Amendment”). The Amendment provides for the conversion of the cash Bonus amount into the equivalent combined value in Non-statutory Stock Options, using a Black-Scholes calculation, and a Restricted Stock Award (“RSA”) using the previous 10-day average market close price.  As reflected in the Amendment, in lieu of the cash Bonus, on August 30, 2019, the Compensation Committee granted under the 2013 Omnibus Stock Plan (i) a Non-statutory Stock Option to purchase 30,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $15.14 with immediate vesting and expiring on the tenth anniversary of the grant date and (ii) an RSA for 22,165 shares of common stock.  The RSA fully vests on September 11, 2019.
 
The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
