On November 11, 2016, Bob L. Corey, age 65, notified Callidus Software Inc. (“Company”) that he intends to retire from his position as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective November 15, 2016. To provide for an orderly transition of Mr. Corey’s duties and responsibilities, the Company and Mr. Corey entered into a transition and retirement agreement on November 14, 2016 (“Transition Agreement”). The Transition Agreement provides that, except in the event Mr. Corey is terminated for cause, Mr. Corey will continue his employment with the Company as Executive Vice President to the Office of the Chief Executive Officer through the earlier of (i) June 30, 2017 (“Retirement Date”), (ii) the date on which he resigns his employment with the Company, and (iii) the date on which the Company terminates his employment for cause (“Transition Period”). During the Transition Period Mr. Corey will provide transitional services to the Company (“Transition Services”).
 
Mr. Corey will continue to receive his current base salary through the Transition Period. In addition, through the Transition Period he will be eligible to participate in the Company-sponsored health benefits plan, continue vesting of equity, and remain eligible for the Company’s existing Executive Incentive Bonus Plan. He will not be eligible for a bonus in 2017. In connection with Mr. Corey’s retirement from the Company, unless the Company terminates his employment prior to the Retirement Date for failing to provide the Transition Services (including for failing to do so in a diligent and cooperative fashion, as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion), or he resigns from employment for any reason prior to the Retirement Date, Mr. Corey will be eligible to receive: (i) acceleration of vesting of 74,579 unvested restricted stock units effective as of the Retirement Date; (ii) acceleration of vesting of 51,454 unvested Performance-based Restricted Stock Units to the extent relevant performance metrics have been achieved as of the Retirement Date, and subject to adjustment under the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan; and (iii) extension of the post-employment exercisability of his stock options for nine months following the Retirement Date. The Transition Agreement also provides for a release of claims and includes other standard provisions.
  
The Company issued a press release regarding Mr. Corey’s retirement, which is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
