ABC Corporation enters into a three-year employment contract with its CEO, who is a covered employee as defined by IRC Section 162(m). The terms of the contract include $1 million of cash compensation to be paid annually. Additionally, 100,000 shares of non-vested restricted stock are granted in year 1 and cliff vest in two years (i.e., the restricted stock will vest and become tax deductible on the first day of year 3). The fair value of the stock on the grant date is $15 per share for a total fair value of $1.5 million. Assume the fair value of the stock remains constant and the applicable tax rate is 21%.
