Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On April 27, 2023, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. (the “Company”) awarded performance share units (“PSUs”) pursuant to the Company’s 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2015 Plan”), to the named executive officers of the Company (the “Named Executive Officers”) in the amounts specified in the table below. The PSUs will enable the Named Executive Officers to receive shares of our common stock if and to the extent that the PSU awards vest based on the Company’s performance against two metrics: three-year cumulative earnings before interest and taxes (“Adjusted EBIT”) and three-year average return on invested capital (“ROIC”), each of which is described further below. The actual number of PSUs that may vest is subject to adjustment based on the performance level achieved relative to each metric, as described further below, and therefore may be equal to, greater than, or less than the “Number of PSUs Awarded” specified in the table.

1.PSUs Awarded

Name and Position(s)	Number of PSUs Awarded
Morris Goldfarb, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Director	156,270
Sammy Aaron, Vice Chairman, President and Director	86,816
Jeffrey Goldfarb, Executive Vice President and Director	43,408
Neal S. Nackman, Chief Financial Officer	14,469

2.Adjusted EBIT Metric. Satisfaction of this metric will be based on the Company achieving a targeted aggregate cumulative Adjusted EBIT during the three-year performance period of fiscal 2024 through fiscal 2026 (the “Performance Period”). In determining Adjusted EBIT for a fiscal year, certain pre-established adjustments to financial results as reported under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) may apply in certain specified situations.

3.ROIC Metric. Satisfaction of this metric will be based on the Company achieving a target average three-year ROIC during the Performance Period, reduced by a hypothetical tax rate of 27%. In determining ROIC for a fiscal year, certain pre-established adjustments to financial results as reported under GAAP may apply in certain specified situations.

4.Weighting of Metrics. Vesting of 75% of each Named Executive Officer’s PSU award is subject to achievement of the Adjusted EBIT metric target and the remaining 25% is subject to achievement of the ROIC metric target. 100% of each Named Executive Officer’s PSU award relative to each metric would vest if the target for that metric is achieved. For example, if the Adjusted EBIT metric target is satisfied (but the target is not exceeded and there is no shortfall relative to the target), 75% of the total PSUs awarded to the Named Executive Officer would vest.

5.Upward and Downward Adjustments for Exceeding or Falling Short of Metric Targets. The percentage of each Named Executive Officer’s PSU award that may vest with respect to each metric will (a) increase to a maximum of 150% of the PSUs awarded to the executive relative to that metric if the results achieved for that metric exceed the metric’s performance target by a specified amount and (b) decrease to a minimum of 50% of the PSUs awarded to the Named Executive Officer relative to that metric if results achieved for that metric fall below the metric’s performance target but still satisfy the minimum performance level for the applicable metric. The number of PSUs awarded will increase or decrease ratably if actual results are above or below a metric’s target. None of the Named Executive Officer’s PSU award will vest with respect to a metric if the results achieved are less than the minimum threshold performance level for that metric, and no more than 150% of the Named Executive Officer’s PSU award will vest with respect to a metric even if the results achieved exceed the maximum performance level for that metric.

6.Settlement Upon PSU Vesting. If a Named Executive Officer’s PSUs vest based on satisfaction of the metrics as described above, settlement of the applicable award that has vested based upon the performance levels achieved will occur on or within 90 days after the time vesting date of June 15, 2026, contingent on continued employment or other service to the Company through this vesting date.

The number of shares of common stock to which the PSU awards relate will be appropriately adjusted in the event of stock splits, stock dividends and other extraordinary corporate events.

The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the PSU awards are qualified by reference to the full text of the form of Performance Share Unit Agreement for these awards under the 2015 Plan, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.

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