Vincent Belliveau, EMEA General Manager
 
DATE:
As of January 1, 2009
 
FROM:
Adam Miller, as CEO on behalf of Cornerstone OnDemand, Inc. (“Cornerstone”)
 
SUBJECT:
Commission Plan
 
The following sets forth the terms and conditions of your commission and bonus plan (the “Plan”) attributable to the period of January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009 (the “Term”).  This Plan supersedes any prior written or verbal discussions, agreements or understandings with respect to the bonuses, commissions and similar items of compensation (except for commissions due under previous years’ commission plans).  This Plan does not automatically renew at the end of the Term, and is only valid for the Term.  The effective date of this plan is January 1, 2009. This Plan may only be modified with the prior written approval of Cornerstone’s CEO.  All calculations and determinations with respect to this Plan shall be made by Cornerstone in its sole discretion, and shall be final.
 
1)
Annual Quota for Team Sales, including Direct Sales, from new clients as well as from incremental sales into existing accounts is each and all of (i) €[***] in “Software Revenue” and (ii) €[***] in “Service Revenue” invoiced and actually received by Cornerstone pursuant to Approved Contracts executed and delivered during the Term (with time being of the essence).
 
a)
“Approved Contract” means a written agreement with approved pricing between Cornerstone and a customer with respect to the licensing by such customer of Cornerstone OnDemand, as procured primarily by the EMEA General Manager (“Manager”) in question (herein considered a “Direct Sale”) or a Salesperson under the direct supervision and in the region of the Manager (herein considered a “Team Sale”), and duly executed on behalf of Cornerstone by its CEO.
 
b)
“Software Revenues” means, as the case may be, and without duplication of clause 1(c) below, for the applicable year of the Approved Contract, the monthly user fee set forth in the applicable Approved Contract multiplied by the minimum number of monthly users set forth in such Approved Contract multiplied by 12 months, or if there is no minimum monthly user fee, then the minimum annual fee (for the applicable year of such Approved Contract) attributable to the licensing of Cornerstone OnDemand Software Modules.
 
c)
“Service Revenue” means, without duplication of clause 1(b) above, revenue to Cornerstone attributable to the provision of professional services (i.e., business consulting, technical consulting and educational services) by Cornerstone to the client in the applicable Approved Contract, provided that the associated statement of work providing for such Service Revenue is executed and delivered contemporaneously with the Approved Contract to which such statement of work is a part thereof.
 
d)
Nothing in this document obligates Cornerstone to enter into any Approved Contracts or other agreements with any customer or otherwise.
 
e)
Salespersons are expected to follow the official Cornerstone pricing guidelines, which are subject to change from time to time at Cornerstone’s sole discretion.
 
2)
Commissions.
 
a)
For Team Sales from new clients as well as from incremental sales into existing accounts, including Direct Sales:
 
 
i)
For the first year of each Approved Contract executed and delivered during the Term, the Commission shall be an amount equal to:
 
 
(1)
Three Percent (3%) of Software Revenue, payable reasonably promptly after the applicable Software Revenue is invoiced and actually received by the Company, plus
 
 
(2)
One Percent (1%) of Service Revenue, payable reasonably promptly after the applicable Service Revenue is invoiced and actually received by the Company.

ii)
For the second year of each Approved Contract that has a least a two-year firm term and that is executed and delivered during the Term, the Commission for Software Revenue shall be Two Percent (2%), it being understood that there will be no Commissions attributable to Service Revenue beyond the first year of each Approved Contract.  Payment of the Software Revenue Commission for the second year of the term shall be payable reasonably promptly after the applicable Software Revenue for such second year of the Approved Contract is invoiced and actually received by the Company.
 
 
iii)
For the third year of each Approved Contract that has a least a three-year firm term and that is executed and delivered during the Term, the Commission shall be One Percent (1%) of Software Revenues for such year, it being understood that there will be no Commissions attributable to Service Revenue beyond the first year of each Approved Contract.  Payment of the Software Revenue Commission for the third year of the term shall be payable reasonably promptly after the applicable Software Revenue for such third year of the Approved Contract is invoiced and actually received by the Company.  No Commissions, whether for Software Revenue, Service Revenue or otherwise: will be due with respect to years four (4) or beyond of any Approved Contract.
 
 
iv)
To the extent an Approved Contract is less than three years in term and is renewed, then it shall be treated as a multi-year contract in accordance with 2(b)(ii) and 2(b)(iii) above, except that the Commission for Software Revenue shall be One Percent (1%) and One-Half Percent (0.5%) for years two and three respectively.
 
b)
In the event that the manager meets his Quota with respect to each and all of Software Revenue and Service Revenue, then, for any amount above said quota and derived from Approved Contracts executed prior to expiration of the Term, the Commissions for each of Software Revenue and Service Revenue for the first year of the term of the Approved Contract in question shall be increased to Four and One-Half Percent (4.5%) and One and One-Half Percent (1.5%), respectively.
