Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
To achieve a more equal balance of membership among the classes of directors of Five9, Inc. (the “Company”), the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company has determined to move one of the Company’s current directors from Class II to Class I. Accordingly, on March 28, 2018, Mr. David DeWalt resigned from his position as a Class II director, effective as of his appointment as a Class I director. The Board accepted Mr. DeWalt’s resignation and immediately reappointed him as a Class I director with a term set to expire at the 2018 annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. DeWalt will continue to serve on the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board.
As a non-employee director, Mr. DeWalt will continue to receive compensation in accordance with the Company’s non-employee director compensation policy, but he will not receive a new non-employee director RSU grant as a result of this reappointment to the Board.
The Company entered into a new indemnification agreement with Mr. DeWalt in the form previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 5, 2015. The indemnification agreement requires the Company to indemnify Mr. DeWalt to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liability that may arise by reason of his service to the Company, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against him as to which he could be indemnified, among other things.
