will receive a cash signing bonus of $255,000 payable within thirty (30) days of his commencement of employment, and a one-time RSU grant

and Mr. Keith Siegner, the Company’s Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer,
agreed that Mr. Siegner will resign from his positions effective June 15, 2026 and transition to a non-executive role ending effective
June 22, 2026 (the “Separation Date”). Mr. Siegner’s separation of employment is not related to any financial or accounting

Date and his ongoing compliance with his existing non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality, non-disparagement and related restrictive
covenants, Mr. Siegner is eligible to receive: (i) an aggregate amount equal to $576,800, representing twelve (12) months of Mr. Siegner’s
base salary in effect immediately prior to the Separation Date, payable in monthly installments for twelve (12) months following the Separation
Date; (ii) accelerated vesting of the final tranche of Mr. Siegner’s time-based RSU award (equal to 3,189 shares of common stock)

award agreements.

Exhibit 10.1
SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT
THIS SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”) effective as of the Effective Date (as defined below), is by and between The Lovesac Company, a
Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Keith Siegner (the “Executive”) (together with the Company,
the “Parties”).
WHEREAS, Executive previously entered
into an employment agreement with the Company, dated March 19, 2018, as amended and restated effective February 23, 2026 (the “Employment
Agreement”), pursuant to which Executive currently serves as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer;
and
WHEREAS, on June 12, 2026 (the “Notice
Date”), Executive was provided prior written notice of his termination of employment (“Notice Period”); and
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to come
to a mutual agreement regarding the terms of the separation of Executive’s employment with the Company and enter into this Agreement
to fully and finally settle all matters between them concerning Executive’s employment with the Company and its affiliates, effective
as of the Separation Date;
NOW, THEREFORE,
in exchange for the good and valuable consideration set forth herein, the adequacy and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Parties agree as follows:
1. Last
Day of Employment. Executive’s employment as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer with the Company
will cease on June 15, 2026 and he will transition to the role of a non-executive employee from June 15, 2026 through June 22, 2026, his
last day of employment with the Company (“Separation Date”). During the Notice Period, Executive will not perform any
duties for the Company; provided that Executive shall be required to provide timely and accurate information to the Company, upon its
request, for transition-related services. . As of the Separation Date, Executive hereby resigns from all positions held with the Company
and its affiliates, without any further action by any Party.
2. Consideration.
In consideration for Executive signing, and not revoking, this Agreement and compliance with the terms set forth herein (including
but not limited to the obligations set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement), the Company agrees to pay Executive as follows as the sole
and exclusive payments due under this Agreement or otherwise:
(a) Base
Salary Continuation. The Company shall continue to pay or cause to be paid to Executive, Executive’s Base Salary in effect as
of the Separation Date for a period of twelve (12) months immediately following the Separation Date (the “Severance Period”)
which, for the avoidance of doubt, is equal to Five Hundred Seventy Six Thousand Eight Hundred Dollars and Zero Cents ($576,800) in the
aggregate, payable over the Severance Period in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll schedule, subject to applicable tax
withholdings and other authorized deductions. The payments will commence as set forth in Section 3.
(b) Benefits. If
Executive is eligible for and properly and timely elects to continue medical, vision and/or dental coverage under the
Company’s group health plan in accordance with the continuation requirements of COBRA, the Company shall pay the
Company’s and Executive’s portion of the group health benefit premium for a period of twelve (12) months beginning on
the first day of the month immediately following the month in which the Separation Date occurs (the “COBRA Payment
Period”). The Company’s payments hereunder are subject to all the terms and conditions set forth in the Company’s
group health plan and intended to avoid any excise tax under Section 4980D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”). If the Company, in its sole discretion, determines the payments of any COBRA premiums would violate the
nondiscrimination rules or cause the reimbursement of claims to be taxable under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of
2010, together with the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the “Act”) or Section 105(h)
of the Code, the premium payments will be imputed as income and treated as taxable to the Executive.
(c) Equity
Compensation Awards. Executive’s outstanding restricted stock unit award (“RSU”) and performance-based restricted
stock unit award (“PSU”) granted on June 30, 2023 under the Second Amended and Restated 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity
Plan”), representing approximately 3,189 RSUs and 2,963 PSUs, shall vest on June 30, 2026 subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in the Equity Plan and applicable award agreements, and the performance achievement levels approved by the Compensation Committee
of the Company’s Board of Directors. Executive shall be responsible for all tax liability in connection with the vesting and settlement
of these awards. The balance of Executive’s outstanding equity awards shall be treated in accordance with their existing terms.
3. No
Consideration Absent Execution of this Agreement. Executive understands and agrees that the payments to be made and benefits to
be provided in accordance with Section 2 of this Agreement exceed any sums or benefits to which Executive is entitled as severance or
notice pay under any applicable policy, plan and/or procedure of the Company or any previous agreement or understanding between Executive
and the Company (including the Employment Agreement). Executive would not receive the consideration described in Section 2 absent Executive’s
execution of this Agreement and his compliance with the covenants contained herein and those set forth in the Employment Agreement, the
Company’s policies, the Equity Plan, and the applicable Award Agreements. The payments and benefits provided for in Section 2 will
not commence until the first regularly scheduled payroll occurring ten (10) business days after the Company’s receipt of a countersigned
copy of this Agreement, provided that the Executive has not revoked this Agreement, and provided further that the first such payment under
Section 2 shall include all payments delayed by reason of the operation of this Section 3.
2
4. General Release of Claims.
(a) Executive knowingly
and voluntarily releases and forever discharges the Company, any of its direct and indirect affiliates and subsidiaries, its
affiliates’ and subsidiaries’ members, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns, and any
affiliates, members, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns, and any successor’s members,
partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, and/or affiliates (collectively, the “Released Parties”) of and from

for vested benefits pursuant to any employee benefit plan, or (iv) claims that cannot be waived by law.
3
(c) Nothing
in this Agreement, the Employment Agreement, the Company’s policies, the Equity Plan, and the applicable Award Agreements will prevent
Executive from filing a charge or complaint with, participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by, or reporting possible
violations of law or regulation to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, National Labor Relations Board, U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Justice or any other any federal, state or local
agency charged with the enforcement of employment or other laws. Nothing in this Agreement, the Company’s policies, the Equity Plan,
and the applicable Award Agreements will prohibit Executive from disclosing workplace conduct that Executive reasonably believes to constitute
unlawful workplace conduct or a violation of public policy. Executive does not need to notify the Company prior to making any such reports
or disclosures or participating in an investigation. However, by signing this Agreement, Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive
is waiving rights to individual relief (including without limitation, monetary damages, equitable relief and reinstatement) under any
of the claims and/or causes of action waived in this Section 4. Therefore, Executive agrees that Executive will not accept any award or
settlement from any source or proceeding (including but not limited to any proceeding brought by any other person or by any government
agency) with respect to any claim or right waived in this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall preclude Executive
from receiving a monetary award from the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act, 15
U.S.C. §78u-6, or from any other similar provision of
law.
(d) Except
as provided in Section 4(c) and to enforce the terms of this Agreement, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Executive agrees not
to bring or to make, or join in, any claim of any kind against the Company and/or the Released Parties. Each party further agrees that
this Agreement constitutes a complete bar to any such future claim.
5. Covenants, Acknowledgements and Obligations.
(a) Executive
acknowledges that he remains bound by the terms set forth in this Agreement, the Company’s policies, the Equity Plan, and the applicable
Award Agreements, and that Executive will comply with the obligations set forth therein. Nothing in this Agreement, the Company’s
policies, the Equity Plan, and the applicable Award Agreements, shall preclude either party from responding truthfully to a valid subpoena
or a request by a governmental agency in connection with any investigation it is conducting.
(b) Subject
to Section 4(c), Executive agrees to not defame or disparage the Company or its business or prospects, including its officers and directors,
and will not make any statement of any kind which is calculated to, or which foreseeably will, damage the business or reputation of the
Company.
4
(c) Executive also
affirms that the Company is a technology driven company that designs, manufactures and sells unique, high quality furniture through
an omni-channel platform that includes direct to consumer touchpoints in the form of showrooms, mobile concierges, kiosks,
shop-in-shops at specialty retailers, and online at www.lovesac.com (the Company’s “Business” or “line of
business”). Executive affirms that the Company has employed Executive in a position of trust and confidence, and has provided
Executive with access to Confidential Information (including trade secrets) related to Executive’s position and may also have
provided Executive specialized training related to the Company’s Business and/or the opportunity to develop relationships with
the Company’s employees, agents, and business contacts (clients and others) for the purpose of developing goodwill for the
Company. Executive agrees that Executive’s receipt of the foregoing would give Executive an unfair competitive advantage if
Executive’s activities during employment, and for a reasonable period thereafter, were not restricted as provided for in this
Agreement. Executive affirms that, during Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive was a Senior Executive, as
defined by 16 CFR § 910.1, and in a policy-making position.
Subject to Section 4(c), Executive
agrees to use Company’s Confidential Information only in the performance of Executive’s duties, to hold such information in
confidence and trust, and not to engage in any unauthorized use or disclosure of such information during Executive’s employment
and for so long thereafter as such information qualifies as Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means
an item of information or compilation of information in any form (tangible or intangible) related to the Company’s Business that
Executive acquires or has acquired or gains or has gained access to during Executive’s employment that the Company has not authorized
public disclosure of, and that is not readily available to the public or persons outside the Company. By way of example and not limitation,
Confidential Information is understood to include: Project Winifred; strategic plans; product or service information, including fees,
costs and pricing structures; product innovation, development and launch information; acquisition, divestiture, joint venture or strategic
partnership plans and information; distribution and sales methods and systems; sales and profit figures; forecasts and projections; marketing
information; advertising and pricing strategies; analyses; diagrams; reports; presentations; active or threatened litigation or claims;
computer software, including operating systems, applications, and program listings; flow charts; manuals and documentation; databases;
accounting and business methods; business plans; innovations, designs, formulae, ideas, inventions and new developments and methods, whether
patentable or unpatentable and whether or not reduced to practice; trade secrets; production processes and manufacturing know-how; raw
material and product specifications; analytical techniques; process descriptions; quality control tests and procedures; proprietary information;
customer lists; and information concerning existing and prospective clients, partners, distributors, agents, suppliers and customers and
other information related thereto. Executive acknowledges that items of Confidential Information are the Company’s valuable assets
and have economic value because they are not generally known by the public or others who could use them to their own economic benefit
and/or to the competitive disadvantage of the Company. Executive agrees that all records, in any form (such as email, database, correspondence,
presentations, notes, files, contact lists, drawings, specifications, spreadsheets, manuals, and calendars) that contain Confidential
Information or otherwise relate to the Company’s Business, with the exception of wage and benefit related materials provided to
Executive as an employee for Executive’s own use as an employee, are the property of the Company (collectively “Company
Records”). Executive will follow all Company policies regarding use or storage of Company Records and return all such records
(including all copies) when Executive’s employment with Company ends or sooner if requested.
5
Subject to Section 4(c), Executive
affirms that Executive has not divulged any proprietary or Confidential Information of the Company and will continue to maintain the confidentiality
of such information consistent with Lovesac’s policies, this Agreement, and applicable law.
(d) In
order to protect the Company’s Confidential Information (including trade secrets) and key business relationships, subject to Section
4(c), Executive agrees that Executive will not during the Restricted Period, directly or through the direction or control of others:
(i) solicit a Covered Employee (defined below) to leave the employment of the Company;
(ii) hire, attempt to hire, or assist in hiring any Covered Employee on behalf of a Competing Business;
(iii) solicit, or attempt to solicit a Covered Customer or Key Relationship (terms separately defined below),
for the purpose of doing any business that would compete with the Company’s Business;
(iv) knowingly engage in any conduct that is intended to cause, or could reasonably be expected to cause
the Covered Customer or Key Relationship to stop or reduce doing business with the Company, or that would involve diverting business opportunities
away from the Company;
(v) own, manage, control or provide services for the benefit of a Competing Business within the Territory
(terms separately defined below) that: (i) are the same or similar in work, function or purpose to those Executive provided to the Company
during the Look Back Period; (ii) relate to a business function, business transaction or business partnership (current or prospective)
that Executive had involvement with or supervision of during the Look Back Period; (iii) relate to a business function, business transaction,
or business partnership (current or prospective) that Executive had access to Confidential Information about during Executive’s
employment at the Company; or (iv) perform work in any senior managerial, executive, or directorial capacity; or
(vi) take on any other responsibilities for a Competing Business that would involve the probable use or disclosure
of Confidential Information or the conversion of Covered Customers or Key Relationships to the benefit of a Competing Business or detriment
of the Company.
6
Nothing herein is intended
or to be construed as a prohibition against general advertising such as “help wanted” ads that are not targeted at the
Company’s employees. This Agreement is not intended to prohibit: (i) employment with a non-competitive independently operated
subsidiary, division, or unit of a family of companies that include a Competing Business, so long as the employing independently
operated business unit is truly independent and my services to it do not otherwise violate this Agreement; or (ii) a passive and
non-controlling ownership of less than 2% of the stock in a publicly traded company. This provision also does not preclude conduct
protected by Section 7 of the NLRA such as joining or forming a union, engaging in collective bargaining, or engaging in other
concerted activity for mutual aid and protection.
“Restricted Period”
means while employed and for a period of twelve (12) months after Executive’s employment ends (irrespective of which party ends
the relationship or why it ends). “Covered Employee” means any employee of Company that Executive gained knowledge
of through Executive’s employment with the Company. “Competing Business” means any person or entity that engages
in (or is planning to engage in) a business that competes with a portion of the Company’s Business as it currently exists, is in
process, or is being planned as of the termination of my employment, including but not limited to the design, manufacturing, or sale of
furniture, home furnishings, technology-enabled furniture, furniture for sleep or rest, including beds and mattresses, and related accessories,
and such other merchandise the Company sells from time to time in retail stores. “Look Back Period” is the last two
years of Executive’s employment. “Covered Customer” means a customer or potential customer that Executive had
material business-related contact or dealings with or access to Confidential Information about during the Look Back Period. “Key
Relationships” refers to a person or entity with an ongoing business relationship with the Company (including vendors and distributors)
that Executive had material business-related contact or dealings with during the Look Back Period. Because of the nature of Executive’s
responsibilities for the Company, Executive has participated or will participate in the Company’s business and/or receive or retain
Confidential Information about the Company’s global business in all geographies. Therefore, “Territory” means
the United States (including state and state-equivalents and county and county-equivalents therein) and all other countries on Earth (including,
but not limited to the United Kingdom, China, Japan, India, Mexico, Italy, France, Indonesia, Brazil, Bangladesh, Russia, Pakistan, Nigeria,
and state and state-equivalents and county and county-equivalents therein).
If the Executive decides to provide

with a written notice describing the name of the entity/person to whom services/employment are being provided and the type of services/employment
being provided. Written notice should be provided via email to legal@lovesac.com and CarlyKawaja@lovesac.com. Executive shall provide
written notice to the Company before accepting an offer for employment or to provide services, or at least seven (7) days prior to providing
the services or starting employment, whichever is earlier. Such notice shall be required to permit the party or parties to seek immediate
injunctive relief, if needed, to avoid harm.
(e) Executive
further agrees to cooperate with the Company and its counsel in connection with any investigation, administrative proceeding or litigation
related to any matter in which Executive was involved during Executive’s employment with the Company or of which Executive has knowledge.
Executive’s obligations under this Section 5(e) shall survive for a period of three (3) years following the Separation Date.
7
(f) Executive promises
to comply with the covenants set forth in this Agreement, the Company’s policies, the Equity Plan, and the applicable Award
Agreements. Executive understands and agrees that any breach by Executive of the terms of this Agreement, the Company’s
policies, the Equity Plan, and the applicable Award Agreements will cause immediate and irreparable harm to the Company. The Parties
further agree that the restrictive periods set forth in this Agreement, the Company’s policies, the Equity Plan, and the
applicable Award Agreements, shall not expire and shall be tolled during any period in which Executive is in violation of the
restricted period. Further, following five (5) days’ written notice to Executive of Executive’s violation of any of the
provisions of this Agreement, the Company’s policies, the Equity Plan, or the applicable Award Agreements, the Company will
have the immediate right: (1) to cease making any additional payments to Executive under Section 2 of this Agreement, and (2) apply
to a court of competent jurisdiction to seek injunctive, economic and equitable relief. Nothing in this Agreement limits or reduces
any common law or statutory duty Executive owes to the Company, nor does this Agreement limit or eliminate any remedies available to
the Company for a violation of such duties. This Agreement will survive the expiration or termination of Executive’s
employment with the Company.
(g) Executive
affirms that Executive has not filed, caused to be filed, or presently is a party to any claim against the Company. Nothing in this Agreement
is intended to impair Executive’s rights under whistleblower laws or cause Executive to disclose Executive’s participation
in any governmental whistleblower program or any whistleblowing statute(s) or regulation(s) allowing for anonymity.
(h) Executive
also affirms that Executive has been paid and/or has received all compensation, wages, bonuses, commissions, paid sick leave, predictability
pay, and/or benefits which are due and payable as of the Separation Date, and Executive has been reimbursed for all necessary expenses
or losses incurred by Executive within the scope of Executive’s employment.
6. Defend
Trade Secrets Act. Under the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable
under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (a) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state,
or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating
a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made to Executive’s attorney in relation to a lawsuit for retaliation against Executive
for reporting a suspected violation of law; or (c) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if
such filing is made under seal.
7. Return of
Property. Executive affirms that Executive has returned or will return by June 22, 2026, without copying or reproducing, all
of the Company’s property, documents, data and/or any Confidential Information in Executive’s possession or control in
accordance with Section 5.3 of the Employment Agreement. Executive also affirms that Executive is in possession of all of
Executive’s property that Executive had at the Company’s premises and that the Company is not in possession of any of
Executive’s property. Further, Executive hereby certifies that: (i) Executive has returned all of the Company’s
Confidential Information, including any original files, copies, recordings, reproductions, and notes; (ii) Executive no longer
retains or has in Executive’s possession or control any property, documents, data, or records containing Company’s
Confidential Information; and (iii) Executive has not disclosed or distributed Company’s Confidential Information to other
persons, parties, or entities. This Section does not apply to employment agreements or wage and benefit materials provided to
Executive for Executive’s own use as an employee.
8
8. Ownership
of Intellectual Property. Executive promises to comply with all of the covenants set forth in Section 5.2 of Employment Agreement,
which will survive his termination and be incorporated into this Agreement. In accordance with Section 5.2 of the Employment Agreement,
Executive affirms that all Intellectual Property is the sole and exclusive property of the Company and hereby assigns all right title
and interest in and to such Intellectual Property to the Company.
9. Indemnification.
Executive understands and agrees that Executive is solely responsible for any tax liabilities and consequences that Executive and/or
the Company, or any of them, may incur as the result of the allocation of payments or vesting and settlement of equity awards made under
this Agreement, and that the Company shall bear no responsibility for any such liabilities or consequences. Executive agrees to indemnify
and hold the Company harmless from liability for tax payments, required tax withholdings, penalties, additions to tax and/or interest
that the Company is obligated to pay because of the allocation of payments made under this Agreement, and Executive’s failure to
comply with Executive’s obligations under this Agreement, and the Company shall not be required to pay any sums to Executive not
otherwise described in this Agreement for any reason as part of this Agreement even if the tax liabilities and consequences to Executive
are ultimately assessed in a fashion not presently anticipated by Executive. Executive further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company against any and all liens, subrogation claims, and any other rights that may be asserted by any person against the amount paid
in hereunder.
10. 409A
Considerations. The intent of the Parties is that payments and benefits pursuant to this Agreement comply with or be exempt
from (and to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance with or exempt from) Section 409A
of the Code and the regulations and guidance promulgated under such section (collectively “Code Section 409A”).
“Termination of employment,” or words of similar import, as used in this Agreement means, for purposes of any payments
under this Agreement that are payments of deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A, the Executive’s
“separation from service” as defined in Code Section 409A. For purposes of Code Section 409A, the right to a series of
installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. With respect to any
reimbursement of expenses of, or any provision of in-kind benefits to, Executive, as specified under this Agreement, such
reimbursement of expenses or provision of in-kind benefits shall be subject to the following conditions: (1) the expenses eligible
for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for
reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year, except for any medical reimbursement arrangement
providing for the reimbursement of expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code; (2) the reimbursement of an eligible expense
shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred; and (3) the right to
reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. If a payment obligation under
this Agreement or other compensation arrangement arises on account of Executive’s separation from service while the Executive
is a “specified employee” (as defined under Code Section 409A and determined in good faith by the Compensation
Committee), any payment of “deferred compensation” (as defined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(1), after
giving effect to the exemptions in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.409A-1(b)(3) through (b)(12)) that is scheduled to be paid within
six (6) months after such separation from service shall accrue without interest and shall be paid within fifteen (15) days after the
end of the six-month period beginning on the date of such separation from service or, if earlier, within fifteen (15) days after the
appointment of the personal representative or executor of Executive’s estate following Executive’s death. In no event
whatsoever shall the Company, or any of their respective affiliates, or any of their respective directors, managers, members,
employees, consultants or advisers be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on Executive by Code
Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.
9
11. Affirmations.
Executive further affirms that Executive has no known workplace injuries or occupational diseases and has been provided and/or has
not been denied any leave requested under the Family and Medical Leave Act or any comparable state or local leave law(s).
12. Non-admission
of Wrongdoing. Executive agrees that neither this Agreement nor the furnishing of the consideration set forth in Section 2 of
this Agreement shall be deemed or construed at any time for any purpose as an admission by the Company of any liability or unlawful conduct
of any kind. The Company specifically disclaims and denies any liability to or wrongful acts against Executive or any other persons, entity
or agency, on the part of itself, its employees and its agents.
13. Governing
Law and Interpretation. This Agreement shall be governed and conformed in accordance with the laws of Connecticut without regard
to its conflict of laws provision. The Parties have endeavored to craft this Agreement to comply with applicable law. To the extent to
which a court finds that the Agreement does not comport with applicable law in any manner, Executive agrees that the court may sever,
modify, and/or partially enforce the offending provision. Therefore, Executive agrees that each of Executive’s obligations under
this Agreement shall be considered a separate and severable obligation. If a court or arbitrator determines that a restriction in this
Agreement cannot be enforced as written due to an overbroad limitation (such as time, geography, or scope of activity), the parties agree
that the court or arbitrator shall reform or modify the restrictions or enforce the restrictions to such lesser extent as is allowed by
law. If, despite the foregoing, any provision contained in this Agreement is determined to be void or unenforceable, in whole or in part,
then the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. The parties agree that the Company will suffer irreparable
harm, in addition to any damages that can be quantified, by a breach of this Agreement by Executive. Accordingly, in the event of such
a breach or a threatened breach, the Company will be entitled to all remedies that may be awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction
or arbitrator, including without limitation injunctive relief, recovery of its attorneys’ fees and expenses (including not only
costs of court, but also expert fees, travel expenses, and other expenses incurred), and any other legal or equitable relief allowed by
law.
14. Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and Released Parties hereto. However,
neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder shall be assignable by Executive.
10
15. Amendment.
This Agreement may not be modified, altered or changed except upon express written consent of both parties wherein specific reference
is made to this Agreement.
16. Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, the Company’s policies, the Equity Plan, and the applicable Award Agreements, set forth the entire
agreement between the parties hereto, and fully supersedes any prior agreements or understandings between the parties which impose any
obligations on the Company to Executive, other than those specified in this Agreement, the Company’s policies, the Equity Plan,
and the applicable Award Agreements. All representations, promises, and prior or contemporaneous understandings are merged into, and expressed
in this instrument; however, should Executive be subject to a prior agreement with the Company containing confidentiality, nonsolicitation,
noncompetition and/or invention assignment provisions that are enforceable and compliant with current law and this Agreement is found
to be unenforceable, for any reason, then such prior agreement(s) shall remain in place and survive to afford the Company the greatest
protection allowed by law. Executive acknowledges that Executive has not relied on any representations, promises, or agreements of any
kind made to Executive in connection with Executive’s decision to sign this Agreement, except for those set forth in this Agreement,
the Company’s policies, the Equity Plan, and the applicable Award Agreements.
17. Acceptance and Effective Date.
(a) To
accept this Agreement, Executive must sign, date and return to the Company this Agreement no later than July 6, 2026. Executive may revoke
this Agreement for a period of seven (7) calendar days following the day Executive executes this Agreement. Any revocation within this
period must be submitted, in writing, to Mary Fox, and state, “I hereby revoke my acceptance of the Separation and Release Agreement.”
This revocation must be emailed to Mary Fox at mary@lovesac.com, and emailed within seven (7) calendar days of execution of this Agreement.
Provided that Executive does not timely revoke this Agreement, it shall become effective on the eighth (8th) day after Executive
signs it (“Effective Date”). Executive is hereby advised to consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement.
In the event that Executive does not timely sign, or if Executive revokes this Agreement, this Agreement will be null and void, and Executive
will not be entitled to receive the consideration set forth in Section 2.
(b) Executive
may accept this Agreement by signing it and delivering it to Mary Fox, within the time period specified in this Section 17. This Agreement
will not be effective or accepted if modified by Executive unilaterally without the express written consent/agreement of the Company.
(c) This
Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed as an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument.
11
18. Acknowledgments.
By signing below, Executive acknowledges that Executive: (a) has carefully read this Agreement in its entirety; (b) has had an

Exhibit 10.3
EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT
This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT, dated as
of June 15, 2026 (the “Agreement”), between The Lovesac Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”)
and Andrew Farag (the “Executive”).
WHEREAS, the Company is in the business of manufacturing,
distributing and selling furniture in the retail market;
WHEREAS, the Company wishes to assure itself
of the management services of the Executive for the period provided in this Agreement, and the Executive desires to serve in the
employ of the Company for such period and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter provided; and

to memorialize the terms and conditions of the Executive’s employment by a written agreement.
IT IS THEREFORE AGREED AS FOLLOWS:
1. Employment
Duties and Acceptance.
1.1 Employment
by the Company. The Company shall employ the Executive, for itself and its subsidiaries and affiliates, for the Term (as herein
defined), to render exclusive and full-time services in the capacity of Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer
of the Company.
1.2 Duties/Authority.
The Executive shall have such responsibilities, powers and duties substantially consistent with those customarily assigned to individuals
serving in such position at comparable companies or as may be reasonably required by the conduct of the business of the Company. The
Executive will report to Mary Fox, President of the Company. The Executive shall devote the Executive’s full working time and efforts
to the business and affairs of the Company. The Executive shall not, without the prior approval of the Company, whether for compensation
or otherwise, directly or indirectly, alone or as a member of any partnership or other organization, be actively engaged in or concerned
with any other business duties or personal pursuits which are in conflict with the Executive’s duties to the Company (whether under
this Agreement or otherwise). The Executive’s reasonable participation in charitable organizations shall not be considered a violation
of this provision.
1.3 Acceptance
of Employment by the Executive. The Executive accepts such employment and shall render the services described above. Subject to
appointment by the Board as such, the Executive may also serve during all or any part of the Term as an officer of any other entity controlled
by the Company, and as a director of the Company and of any other entity controlled by the Company, in each case without any compensation
therefor other than that specified in this Agreement.
1.4 Place
of Employment. The Executive’s principal place of employment shall
be at his home office, subject to such reasonable travel to the Company’s headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut or St. George,
Utah, as the rendering of the services hereunder may require.
2. Term
of Employment. The stated term of employment under this Agreement (the “Term”)
shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue until terminated in accordance with Section
4 of this Agreement.
3. Compensation.
3.1 Salary.
As compensation for all services to be rendered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall pay the Executive during the Term a salary
of $560,000 per annum (the “Base Salary”), payable not less frequently
than monthly, less such deductions as shall be required to be withheld by applicable rules and regulations. The Base Salary shall not
preclude raises, equity compensation, annual bonus and other compensation or incentives, as set forth herein or, should the Board, in
its sole and absolute discretion, so determine to provide such additional compensation or incentives to the Executive. The Executive’s
total compensation, including Base Salary, Annual Bonus and equity compensation opportunities shall be subject to annual review by the
Board (or a compensation committee thereof) and adjustments considered based upon individual performance, market alignment or other factors.
The Executive acknowledges and understands that the Board is under no obligation to increase any component of the Executive’s total
compensation pursuant to this review.

Bonus”), subject to the Company’s achievements relative to certain performance
targets established by the Board (or a compensation committee thereof) for the performance
period, and individual performance, as applicable. The Annual Bonus will be determined by
the Board after receipt of the Company’s audited financials for the applicable year,
and for the avoidance of doubt will be paid during the calendar year in which occurs the

4.4, Annual Bonuses shall be awarded pro rata based on the proportion of such fiscal
year served by the Executive. The Executive shall not be entitled to any such pro rata Annual
Bonuses with respect to any fiscal year occurring after the fiscal year in which the Executive
was terminated. Executive’s Annual Bonus for fiscal 2027 shall not be prorated.

vesting, and half shall be subject to performance-based vesting (“PSUs”). PSUs
are eligible to vest based on Company performance relative to metrics and targets set by
the Board (or a compensation committee thereof) for the applicable performance period. Once
vested, Annual RSUs are settled in shares of Company common stock or cash and issued in three
installments on or about the anniversary of the grant date provided that the Executive is
employed by the Company on such date. Once vested, PSUs are settled in shares of Company
common stock or cash and issued at the end of the performance period, subject to certification
by the Board on the level of attainment of such PSUs and provided that the Executive is employed
by the Company on the vesting date.
3.4 Participation
in Employee Benefit Plans. The Executive shall be permitted during the Term, if and to the extent eligible, to participate on
the same terms in any group life, hospitalization or disability insurance plan, health program, retirement savings plan or similar benefit
plan of the Company that is available generally to other senior executives and managers of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Board
may determine to offer the Executive participation in stock, phantom stock or profit based bonus or similar plans, to the extent applicable,

Death. If the Executive dies during the Term, this Agreement shall terminate.
4.2 Termination
upon Disability. If during the Term the Executive becomes physically or mentally disabled, whether totally or partially, so that
the Executive is unable substantially to perform Executive’s services hereunder (as determined, in good faith, by a physician selected
by the Board and reasonably acceptable to the Executive or the Executive’s legal representative, which agreement as to acceptability
will not be unreasonably delayed or withheld) for (a) a period of three (3) consecutive months, or (b) for shorter periods aggregating
three (3) months during any six (6) month period, the Company may at any time after the last day of the three (3) consecutive months
of disability or the day on which the shorter periods of disability equal an aggregate of three (3) months, by written notice to the
Executive, terminate the Term of the Executive’s employment hereunder. Nothing in this Section
4.2 shall be deemed to extend the Term.
4.3 Termination
for Cause. The Company may at any time by written notice to the Executive terminate the Term of the Executive’s employment
hereunder for Cause and the Executive shall have no right to receive any compensation or benefit hereunder on and after the effective
date of such notice except for the payment or provision, as applicable, of (a) the portion of the Base Salary for periods prior to the
effective date of termination accrued but unpaid (if any), (b) all unreimbursed expenses for which Executive is otherwise entitled to

or benefits, whether as a participant, beneficiary or otherwise, on the date of termination (“Other
Benefits”). For purposes hereof, the term “Cause” shall
mean: (i) conviction of the Executive for any crime constituting a felony in the jurisdiction in which committed, or for any other criminal
act against the Company or its subsidiaries involving dishonesty or willful misconduct intended to injure the Company or its subsidiaries
(whether or not a felony and whether or not criminal proceedings are initiated); (ii) failure or refusal of the Executive in any material
respect to perform the duties of the Executive’s employment or to follow the lawful and proper directives of the President and
Chief Executive Officer, provided such duties or directives are consistent with this Agreement and such failure or refusal continues
uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof specifying the nature of such failure or refusal and requesting
that it be cured is given by the Company to the Executive; (iii) breach by the Executive of the provisions of Sections

at any time with Good Reason (as defined below), and (b) the Company may terminate the Executive’s employment without Cause, upon
ten (10) days’ written notice to the Executive. In either such case, provided the Executive has not breached and does not
breach the provisions of Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, or 5.8
and the Executive has entered into and not revoked a general release of claims without additional post-termination restrictions included
therein in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company so that it becomes effective within sixty (60) days after the Executive’s
termination of employment, the Executive shall continue to receive (i) for a period of twelve (12) months immediately following the Executive’s
date of termination (A) the Executive’s Base Salary as in effect on the date of such notice, payable in accordance with the Company’s
payroll schedule, and (B) coverage under the Company’s group health plan under COBRA, if elected, paid for by the Company (or reimbursed
for the premiums therefor), (ii) the payment or provision of Other Benefits, and (iii) coverage under the term life insurance policy
(or be reimbursed for the premiums therefor) and the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability indemnification and
insurance coverage. If the severance benefits hereunder are considered “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the
period to consider and revoke the release spans two tax years, the severance will begin to be paid in the second tax year even if the
release becomes effective in the earlier tax year, and the first such payment shall include all payments that would have otherwise become
payable prior to such first payment date if not for such restriction. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good
Reason” means (1) the assignment to the Executive of duties and responsibilities not commensurate with the Executive’s
position with the Company, (2) the failure of the Company to provide compensation and benefits to the Executive as required herein, (3)
a reduction in the Executive’s Base Salary without the Executive’s consent, or (4) the failure of the Company to adhere in
any substantial manner to any of its other covenants herein; provided that any of the foregoing continues for a period of twenty
(20) days after written notice thereof, specifying the nature thereof and requesting that it be cured, is given by the Executive to the
Company. No severance will be paid for a “Good Reason” termination unless the Executive terminates employment within sixty
(60) days after the first occurrence of the condition and the Company has not cured such condition within thirty (30) days after written
notice thereof (which notice shall state that such condition constitutes Good Reason) from the Executive.
4.5 Voluntary
Termination. The Executive may terminate the Executive’s employment with the Company at any time in the Executive’s
sole and absolute discretion upon giving at least sixty (60) days advance written notice to such effect to the Company (a “Voluntary
Termination”). In the event the Executive’s employment is terminated during the Term by the Executive’s Voluntary
Termination (other than termination by the Executive for Good Reason), then the Executive shall be entitled only to receive the Executive’s
Base Salary payable through the date of such Voluntary Termination.
5
4.6 Compensation
Upon Disability. In the event of termination of this Agreement by reason of disability as set forth in Section
4.2 hereof, the Company shall pay to the Executive, (a) the Executive’s Base Salary as in effect on the date of termination
for four (4) months immediately following the Executive’s date of termination, payable in accordance with the provisions of Section
3.1 hereof, and (b) all benefits from the Company and its employee benefit plans earned and accrued as of such termination
date.
5 Confidentiality,
Intellectual Property, Noncompete, Nonsolicitation, and Non-Disparagement.
5.1 Nondisclosure and
Nonuse of Confidential Information. The Executive will not disclose or use at any time during or after the Term any Confidential
Information (as defined below) of which the Executive is or becomes aware, whether or not such information is developed by the Executive,
except to the extent that such disclosure or use is directly related to and required by the Executive’s performance of duties assigned
to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement. Under all circumstances and at all times, the Executive will take all appropriate steps
to safeguard Confidential Information in the Executive’s possession and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss
and theft. For purposes hereof, “Confidential Information” means information
that is not generally known to the public and that was or is used, developed or obtained by the Company or its subsidiaries in connection
with their business. It shall not include information (a) required to be disclosed by court or administrative order, (b) lawfully obtainable
from other sources or which is in the public domain through no fault of the Executive, or (c) the disclosure of which is consented to
in writing by the Company.

generates, authors or contributes to any invention, design, new development, device, product, method of process (whether or not patentable
or reduced to practice or comprising Confidential Information), any copyrightable work (whether or not comprising Confidential Information)
or any other form of Confidential Information relating directly or indirectly to the business of the Company as now or hereinafter conducted
(collectively, “Intellectual Property”), the Executive acknowledges
that such Intellectual Property is the sole and exclusive property of the Company and hereby assigns all right title and interest in
and to such Intellectual Property to the Company. Any copyrightable work prepared in whole or in part by the Executive during the Term
will be deemed “a work made for hire” under Section 201(b) of the Copyright Act of 1976, as amended, and the Company will
own all of the rights comprised in the copyright therein. The Executive will promptly and fully disclose all Intellectual Property and
will cooperate with the Company to protect the Company’ interests in and rights to such Intellectual Property (including providing
reasonable assistance in securing patent protection and copyright registrations and executing all documents as reasonably requested by
the Company, whether such requests occur prior to or after termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder).
5.3 Delivery
of Materials upon Termination of Employment. As requested by the Company, from time to time and upon the termination of the Executive’s
employment with the Company for any reason, the Executive will promptly deliver to the Company all copies and embodiments, in whatever
form or medium, of all Confidential Information or Intellectual Property in the Executive’s possession or within Executive’s
control (including written records, notes, photographs, manuals, notebooks, documentation, program listings, flow charts, magnetic media,
disks, diskettes, tapes and all other materials containing any Confidential Information or Intellectual Property) irrespective of the
location or form of such material and, if requested by the Company, will provide the Company with written confirmation that all such
materials have been delivered to the Company. The Executive shall be permitted to retain a copy of this Agreement and other documents
concerning the Executive’s entitlement to compensation to enforce the terms of this Agreement or any other rights afforded by law
to the Executive.
6
5.4 Noncompetition.
The Executive acknowledges that during Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive will become familiar with trade secrets
and other Confidential Information concerning the Company, its subsidiaries and their respective predecessors, and that Executive’s
services will be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company. In addition, the Executive hereby agrees that at any time
during the Term, and after termination of employment, for the duration of the Noncompetition Period (as defined below), the Executive
will not directly or indirectly own, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for or in any manner engage in any
business competing with the businesses of the Company or its subsidiaries as such businesses exist or are in process or being planned
as of the termination of employment, within any county in which the Company or its subsidiaries have operating locations, leases, options
to lease or acquire property, or definitive plans known to the Executive at the time of termination to engage in such businesses. The
“Noncompetition Period” shall be 12 months following the termination
of employment. It shall not be considered a violation of this Section 5.4 for the Executive to be a passive owner of not more than 2%
of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation which is publicly traded, so long as the Executive has no active participation
in the business of such corporation.
5.5 Nonsolicitation.
The Executive hereby agrees that (a) during the Term and for a period of 12 months after the termination of employment (the “Nonsolicitation
Period”) the Executive will not, directly or indirectly through another entity, actively induce or attempt to induce any
employee of the Company or its subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company or its subsidiaries, or in any way interfere with the
relationship between the Company or its subsidiaries and any employee thereof or otherwise employ or receive the services of any individual
who was an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries at any time during such Nonsolicitation Period or within the three-month period
prior thereto and (b) during the Nonsolicitation Period, the Executive will not induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, client,
insurer, reinsurer, broker, licensee or other business relation of the Company or its subsidiaries to cease doing business with the Company
or its subsidiaries.
5.6 Enforcement
of Noncompete and Nonsolicitation. If, at the enforcement of Sections 5.4 or 5.5, a court holds that the duration, scope or area
restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or
area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court will be permitted
to revise the restrictions contained in Sections 5.4 or 5.5 to cover the maximum duration, scope and area permitted by law.
5.7 Equitable
Relief. The Executive acknowledges that (a) the covenants contained herein are reasonable, (b) the Executive’s services
are unique, and (c) a breach or threatened breach by him of any of Executive’s covenants and agreements with the Company contained
in Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5 or 5.8
could cause irreparable harm to the Company for which they would have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, and in addition to any
remedies which the Company may have at law, in the event of an actual or threatened breach by the Executive of the Executive’s
covenants and agreements contained in Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5 or 5.8,
the Company shall have the absolute right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for such injunctive or other equitable relief
as such court may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.
7
5.8 Non-Disparagement.
During the time that Executive is employed by the Company and thereafter, without limitation of time, Executive shall not at any time
make, publish or communicate to any person or entity, including, but not limited to, the customers or suppliers of the Company or any
of its affiliates, any Disparaging (as defined below) remarks, comments or statements concerning Company, any other equity holders of
the Company, or any affiliates of any of the foregoing. The Company shall instruct its Directors and Officers not to make any Disparaging
comments or statements concerning Executive. “Disparaging” remarks,
comments or statements are those that impugn the character, honesty, integrity, morality, business acumen or abilities of the individual
or entity being disparaged.
5.9 Nothing in this agreement
prohibits or restricts the parties from contacting, assisting, responding to, providing truthful testimony to or filing charges with
any regulatory organization, authority or agency (e.g., the EEOC, IRS, SEC or FINRA), or from complying with any court or administrative
order or subpoena, or from providing any other disclosure required by law. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits or is intended to restrict
or impede the Executive from discussing the terms and conditions of his employment with coworkers or union representatives, or exercising
protected rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act, or exercising protected rights to the extent that such right cannot
be waived by agreement, or otherwise disclosing information as permitted by law. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement or
Company policy applicable to the unauthorized use or disclosure of trade secrets, the Executive is hereby notified that, pursuant to
the Defend Trade Secrets Act, the Executive cannot be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for
the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (a) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or
indirectly, or to an attorney; and (b) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law. The Executive
also may not be held so liable for such disclosures made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if
such filing is made under seal. In addition, if the Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected
violation of law, the Executive may disclose the trade secret to the Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information
in the court proceeding, if the Executive files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret,
except pursuant to court order.

6.6 Assignment.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, heirs and permitted
assigns. No rights or obligations of the Executive under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Executive other than the
Executive’s right to compensation and benefits hereunder, which may be transferred by will or operation of law subject to the limitations

had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain such express assumption and agreement at or prior to the effectiveness of any such
assignment, merger, consolidation, amalgamation or scheme of arrangement shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Executive

to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against public policy for any reason, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions
of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.
6.10 Section
409A.
(a) If the Company determines
in good faith that any prov1s10n of this Agreement would cause the Executive to incur an
additional tax, penalty, or interest under Section 409A of the Code and the applicable guidance
thereunder (“Section 409A”),
the Company and the Executive shall use reasonable efforts to reform such provision, if possible,
in a mutually agreeable fashion to maintain to the maximum extent practicable the original
intent of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Section 409A or causing
the imposition of such additional tax, penalty, or interest under Section 409A. The preceding
provision, however, shall not be construed as a guarantee by the Company of any particular
tax effect to the Executive under this Agreement.
(b) “Termination
of employment,” or words of similar import, as used in this Agreement means, for purposes
of any payments under this Agreement that are payments of deferred compensation subject to
Section 409A, the Executive’s “separation from service” as defined in Section
409A. For purposes of Section 409A, the right to a series of installment payments under this
Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.

respect to any reimbursement of expenses of, or any provision of in-kind benefits to, the
Executive, as specified under this Agreement, such reimbursement of expenses or provision
of in-kind benefits shall be subject to the following conditions: (i) the expenses eligible
for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not
affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided
in any other taxable year, except for any medical reimbursement arrangement providing for
the reimbursement of expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code, (ii) the reimbursement
of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in
which such expense was incurred, and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits
shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
If a payment obligation under this Agreement
or other compensation arrangement arises on account of Executive’s separation from service while the Executive is a “specified
employee” (as defined under Section 409A and determined in good faith by the Compensation Committee of the Board), any payment
of deferred compensation” (as defined under Treasury Regulation Section l.409A-l(b)(l), after giving effect to the exemptions in
Treasury Regulation Sections l.409A-l(b)(3) through (b)(12)) that is scheduled to be paid within six (6) months after such separation
from service shall accrue without interest and shall be paid within fifteen (15) days after the end of the six (6)-month period beginning
on the date of such separation from service or, if earlier, within fifteen (15) days after the appointment of the personal representative
or executor of the Executive’s estate following his death.
