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

Item 5.02(e) Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On July 7, 2011, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Cornerstone OnDemand, Inc. (the “Company”), the Board established an executive compensation plan for fiscal year 2011 (the “2011 Plan”) as part of its annual review of base salaries and target incentive compensation for certain of the Company’s key employees, including the named executive officers shown in the table below (the “NEOs”).

Under the terms of the 2011 Plan, each of the NEOs will be entitled to receive a bonus that will vary in size depending on the Company’s success in meeting certain performance thresholds and targets with respect to the following three performance metrics: revenue, with a 50% weighting; unlevered free cash flow, with a 30% weighting; and non-GAAP net loss, with a 20% weighting. Unlevered free cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities, less capitalized software development costs and purchases of property and equipment, plus cash paid for interest, and non-GAAP net loss is net loss adjusted to exclude expenses related to stock-based compensation, changes in the fair value of preferred stock warrants, accretion related to preferred stock, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs and expenses related to the early retirement of debt. The amount payable with respect to each metric may be greater or less than the assigned weighting depending on the extent to which the Company’s performance exceeds or falls short of the applicable target. No bonus payout for a particular performance metric will be earned unless the performance threshold for that metric is met.

The target bonus amounts in the table below represent the amounts payable to each NEO if the Company meets its performance target with respect to each performance metric. However, as shown in the table below, to the extent that the Company’s achievement is greater or less than the specified targets, the bonus amounts payable to each NEO may be increased or decreased, respectively.

The following table shows the minimum, target, and maximum bonus amounts under the 2011 Plan for each of Adam Miller, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer; Steven Seymour, the Company’s Executive Vice President of Strategic Accounts; Perry Wallack, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer; and Mark Goldin, the Company’s Chief Technology Officer:
