Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On December 31, 2012, CDI Corporation ("CDI" or "the Company") entered into a Second Amendment to the Employment Agreement with Robert J.

Item 5.02.    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
 
On December 31, 2012, CDI entered into a Second Amendment (the "Amendment") to the Employment Agreement (the "Agreement") with Robert J. Giorgio, the Company's Executive Vice President, Global Engineering and Technology Solutions (the "Executive"). The Amendment extends the term of the Executive's employment from December 31, 2012 to June 30, 2013 (the "Extension Period"). The parties may, at their discretion, agree to further extend the Extension Period for up to another six-month period on the same terms as set forth in the Amendment.

During the Extension Period, the Executive's compensation will be as follows: (a) base salary at the annual rate provided in the Agreement ($465,000 per year), which will be pro-rated based on length of service during the Extension Period; (b) bonus at the same level provided in the Agreement, which will be pro-rated based on length of service during the Extension Period, and the performance targets and the Executive's achievement of those performance targets will be based on performance during the Extension Period; and (c) employee benefits and withholding as set forth in the Agreement.

The Agreement provided that, following the expiration of the Executive's employment (originally scheduled to be on December 31, 2012), the Executive would perform consulting services for the Company through December 31, 2014 (the "Consulting Period"). Under the Amendment, the Consulting Period will begin on the first day following the end of the Extension Term and end on December 31, 2014.

The Amendment also provides that, in the event of the Executive's retirement as provided in his outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights Agreements, the Executive will have until December 31, 2014 to exercise those awards.
