Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
In order to achieve a more equal balance of membership among classes of directors as required by Delaware law and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Callidus Software Inc. (the “Company”), the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company determined at a regularly scheduled meeting held on February 22, 2016 to move one of the directors from Class III (with a term expiring at the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders) to Class I (with a term expiring at the 2016 annual meeting of stockholders). Accordingly, on February 22, 2016, Murray D. Rode resigned as a Class III director and was immediately appointed to the Board as a Class I director. The resignation and reappointment of Mr. Rode was effected solely to rebalance the Board classes and was not due to any disagreement with the Company or its management on any matter related to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. For all other purposes, including vesting and other compensation matters, Mr. Rode’s service on the Board is deemed to have continued uninterrupted. Mr. Rode continues to serve on the Company’s Compensation Committee.
